Moving On Part 6 Meeting Up With Friends

A/N: This is part 6 of this story as you can tell by the chapter Naruto will be meeting his old friends including Sakura how will he react to her though and how will Hinata react. Of course, the story is strictly NaruIno but some added drama is always good although it does frustrate me a lot when I read it.

Jutsu's/Kurama Talking

'Naruto Talking to Kurama/Sakura Talking to Inner Self'

Inner Thoughts

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto just this story

Sakura's walking down the street after just finishing her shift at the hospital she hasn't gotten any plans she stops to buy a drink of water when she hears a group of female villagers gossiping.

When she hears the name of a blond stud and Ino she doesn't know how to react Could it be Naruto or has Ino met someone else it has been five years so who knows?

She shakes her head Ino's the gossip girl, not her but speaking of Ino she might go and say hello she's probably bored out of her skull running the shop all day.

It doesn't take long to get to the flower shop but when she gets there she sees the shops closed that's odd she shrugs and decides to head home for a nice hot shower.

Meanwhile, on the Hokage Monument, Naruto and Ino are just lying there looking up into the clouds Ino has her head on Naruto's shoulder "So Naruto-Kun I've been training real hard you know I train with Anko-Sensei but I've also been training with Kakashi-Sensei."

Naruto looks at her "Kakashi-Sensei why would you be training with him."

She grins and stands up she does some hand signs "Tajuu Kage Bunshin No Jutsu" five clones of Ino appear and wave at Naruto.

Naruto's shocked "You can do Shadow Clone Jutsu wow how many can you make."

She smiles and dispels the clones and sits beside Naruto "I can create 10 but it wastes a lot of my Chakra so Kakashi-Sensei said to only create two at a time he also taught me a water and and earth Jutsu but it does waste a lot of chakra."

Naruto smiles "Wow that's still great" Naruto stands up and goes into sage mode "Check this out it's Sage Mode."

She smiles "Wow that's cool did you learn anything else."

Naruto nods "Yeah, tons more actually oh I've got something for you." He searches through his pockets and pulls out a package "Here I bought this for you."

She smiles He bought me a gift I wonder what it is She rips the wrapping off and opens the box and she's shocked Wow it's beautiful She looks at Naruto and then puts it on her wrist then launches herself at Naruto and hugs him before she kisses him on the lips which he quickly reciprocates and for the next few minutes they continue kissing.

Later on in the day all of team 7 (Sakura) Team 8 and 9 and most of Team 10 Shikamaru and Choji are all heading to one of Choji's restaurants for lunch there all talking when from the opposite direction Naruto and Ino are walking side by side with Ino holding Naruto's hand and there chatting away. The girls all blush at the blonde hunk not realizing it's Naruto.

Ino grins "So Naruto-Kun where do you want to eat."

Naruto shrugs "Wherever you want Ino-Chan."

The Konoha 11 are all staring they heard what Ino said and can't believe There all thinking the same thing Naruto's back.

Kiba notices the hurt look on Hinata's face and sighs Maybe now she'll notice me I'm better then Naruto anyways. (In His Dreams maybe)

Sakura is shocked OMG that's Naruto-Kun.

Her inner self is also drooling What the hell he's so hot. Sakura sighs 'Yea maybe but he'll never be ours not how I treated him.'

Ino smiles then she looks up and sees everyone staring at her and Naruto. Naruto looks at her "What's up Ino-Chan" He looks up "Oh, hey guys."

Choji grins "Hey Naruto when did you get back."

Naruto grins "A few hours ago how you doing Choji I see you've put on a lot of muscle that's good still the powerhouse of Team 10."

Choji nods "Hell yea."

Shikamaru smirks "Welcome back I see you've changed your look no orange at all finally realized how much of a target it made you."

Naruto scratches his head "Yeah, something like that but I still have Orange flames."

Tenten smiles "Welcome back Naruto I guess the rumors I've heard all day were talking about you when they mentioned a blond bombshell entering the leaf village a few hours ago."

Naruto groans "Don't remind me, all I've had for five years is girls drooling over me and Temari was one of them" I finally realized how someone else felt all those years ago.

Ino nudges his arm then grins "Hey you should be happy every woman wants you, treat it as a compliment like I do when the guys do the same to me."

A few of the group laugh at that knowing Ino's always flaunted her good looks even if she didn't flirt anymore. Choji grins "Hey you two why don't you join us my dad opened up a new restaurant and the foods great plus as your back we eat for free."

Shikamaru rolls his eyes "We always eat for free when we visit one of your dad's places."

Choji chuckles "Good point."

Naruto and Ino shrug and follow them. Ino has seen Sakura looking at Naruto even she had that far off look of lust she might be her best friend again but she better not try anything or she will go postal on her ass with Shadow clones.

Sakura doesn't know about it yet only Kakashi-Sensei, Tsunade and her parents know and Inoichi was happy because he could train his daughter on more stuff plus she could help out her mom at the same time a win-win for everyone.

Naruto noticed Sakura but hardly paid her much attention. They all sit-down and start eating and start talking about what they've all been up to.

Ino saw Hinata try to talk to her Naruto-Kun but could barely say anything she now wishes he should have changed out of that mesh shirt into something that didn't show off his whole body to the world.

Naruto freaks out Kiba by going into Sage Mode causing Kiba to fall off his chair backward whilst everyone laughed.

Sakura's the only one who doesn't really know how to start a conversation with Naruto even though she wanted to but she's happy that he's improved even more she also saw the shiny bracelet Ino wore on her wrist as did everyone else she thought it was beautiful and she's never seen it before so Naruto must have got it for her.

After the food, they all split up. Naruto's now with Ino walking down the street when an ANBU appears in front of him "Uzumaki-San The Hokage requests your presence."

Naruto nods "I'll be right there."

The ANBU nods and vanishes Naruto turns to Ino "I'll see what Baa-Chan wants and find you later."

Ino smiles "OK I'm glad your back."

Naruto nods "Me too."

Naruto gives her a kiss on the lips before jumping on the roof and running to the Hokage Tower.

Not far away Sakura's walking home she's feeling pretty down she wanted to talk to Naruto but alone and that wasn't going to happen earlier.

She has her head down then hears her name and look up to see an ANBU in front of her "Lady Hokage requests your presence Haruno-San."

Sakura smiles "Understood I'll be there shortly."

The Anbu vanishes and she starts making her way to the tower "I wonder what Milady wants with me maybe she's heard about Naruto's return no I'm certain she knows."

She speeds up jumping across rooftops at high speed.

They both arrive at the tower at the same time but they don't know what to say so they stay quiet and walk to Tsunade's office.

Sakura does keep glancing at Naruto and he notices but does nothing just brushes it off. Sakura knocks on the door and she hears "Enter" So she steps inside followed by Naruto.

Tsunade sees Sakura and smiles then sees Naruto and is shocked she blushes but quickly turns away before they noticed.

Naruto smiles "Hey Baa-Chan I'm back."

She groans "Stop calling me that I'm not old."

Naruto smirks "So what's up."

Tsunade smiles "Well Jiraiya tells me you've grown considerably and you finally got out of that ridiculous Orange jumpsuit although the choice of the top really do you want the female population of Konoha to pass out."

Naruto sighs "There's no winning with you is there so what's up."

Tsunade grins "I want to see just how powerful you now are."

Naruto nods "OK so what I'm fighting Sakura or something."

Sakura noticed he didn't say Chan after her name and looks depressed. Tsunade noticed the look "As interesting as that may be Sakura being my apprentice and all It won't be you versus Sakura you should be proud Naruto she might even be a better medic than me one day."

Naruto nods then smirks So she's finally taking her training seriously I'm actually happy about that "Does that mean she's scared of blood like you were Baa-Chan."

Sakura covers her mouth to stop herself from giggling Oh that was funny Shizune told me about that.

Sakura's Inner Self is laughing That still cracks me up a world renown Doctor was scared of blood.

A vein appear on Tsunade's forehead "I got over that Gaki as you well know but no you won't be fighting Sakura but you will know who you fight is with he's right outside."

Naruto heads to the window and looks on the balcony "Kakashi-Sensei."

He looks up from his book "Yo."

Naruto climbs onto the balcony and walks to Kakashi "Here I got a present for you."

Naruto passes Kakashi a book his eyes almost pop out of his skull "The newest edition Of the Icha Icha Paradise and signed by Jiraiya also wow thanks, Naruto."

Tsunade looks out "Both of you get in here and put that damn book away right now you damn pervert."

Naruto smirks and Kakashi's eyes are still glazed over but he puts the book away and follows Naruto inside.

When they get inside Tsunade is sitting in her chair "OK, Naruto and Sakura you will be fighting against Kakashi so I expect greatness from you both."

Naruto and Sakura nod "Hai Baa-Chan/Hai Milady."

Kakashi looks at them both "I'll see you where we did the bell test in 30 minutes."

Naruto smirks "So is that 3 hours and 30 minutes or 30 minutes."

Sakura chuckles at that Good one Naruto.

Sakura's Inner Self is laughing againOh my god that was so funny suck on that for always being late Shanaroo.

Kakashi gives him an eye smile That was actually Funny but Tsunade grunts "30 minutes or I'll personally demote you and stick you back in the academy permanently."

Naruto and Sakura chuckle and Kakashi gulps She wouldn't do that would she "Yes 30 minutes see you there." He Shunshin's away.

Naruto grins "Nice one Baa-Chan you almost made him piss himself."

Tsunade grins "Oh I meant it Naruto-Kun now off you go and do your best whatever Kakashi-Sensei has for you I'm sure you'll do it."

Naruto and Sakura nod and leave the room as there gone Tsunade sighs "You can come in now."

Jiraiya grins "Man you sure scared the crap out of Kakashi."

Tsunade smirks "That was the general idea so tell me what level would you put Naruto in."

Jiraiya grins "Well I'd tell you but why don't we go and watch for ourselves as I'm sure you was planning to do that anyways."
