Chapter 2

Hi :) First, I want to thank all those who reviewed last time^^ It really means a lot to me, you can't believe it! Also the critics! I really appreciate it...SO! Now let's get started with the second chapter of Drunk In Vegas. Have fun!

"I can't believe I am going to have to spend 2 weeks with this idiot in Las Vegas!", Sakura thought.

"Well...it can't get worse can it?", with these words she sighed and went back to her work.

When Sakura arrived at home she started packing her things that she would need during the next two weeks. 'Hmmm...Did I forget anything? I don't think so...' Sakura went to bed after arranging her suitcase and making sure she had everything she needed.

The next day, Sakura was waiting for Naruto at the airport.

'Can't he be at least on time?', she thought angrily because it was already quarter past 8.

"Ahh, you're on time I see..."

Sakura turned around to meet the intense blue eyes of her boss. He looked stunning in his new suit from Armani.

"Uhh yes..."

'Very intelligent Sakura…' she thought angrily. Now he must think she was some retard too!

She had seen him handsome before, but why was she looking at him like a drooling fangirl? Sakura shook her head to get the stupid thought away.

"Follow me...I already have our tickets. We will be sitting in business class."

What did she expect? Of course he would sit in business class. He was Naruto Namikaze. He probably thought Economy Class was for low-life humans who can't afford designer suits.

He looked like Neil Patrick Harris. A hetero version. He was by no means gay.

After they got their boarding pass they waited for the plane to land and in the meantime Naruto was explaining the business meeting to Sakura.

'You understand this meeting is very important. It would be of our benefit if we could make an alliance with the Sabakuno Foundation. The benefit is very high and it could have a great impact on our company.'

Sakura was listening attentively to Naruto and she could see the grave importance of this meeting in his eyes and also in the way he talked. But there was still a thing she couldn't understand...

"Excuse me but...why do we have to stay 2 more weeks in Las Vegas?", Sakura asked. She didn't get it. They could just fly back home to New York after the meeting.

Naruto sighed and gave her the 'look', parents normally gave their children when they ask a stupid question. And it had its impact on Sakura already, she felt like she asked a stupid question.

"We need to stay there longer for three reasons. The first being the one that it will take him time to think about my proposition. He won't sign the contract immediately as I know Gaara. We would need at least three days to persuade him. Secondly, the final arrangements will also take a while and I want to be there for the whole procedure. Thirdly and not least, I love Vegas and it is a good excuse to have a short vacation there." Naruto smiled as he said the last sentence and leaned back into his chair.

Sakura has never seen him smile before and for her it was a sensation. 'He looks even more handsome when he smiles', she thought.

'WAIT A SEC. Did I just think that my boss looks handsome? Whoa I really need a boyfriend…'

After the plane arrived, Naruto and Sakura went in and sat beside each other.

Some hours later, they landed in Las Vegas and were picked up by a limousine that Naruto had ordered. Several minutes later they were in the hotel and checked in. Since Sakura was tired she immediately went to her room and fell asleep on the bed, whereas Naruto went through his notes he would need the next day.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Sakura was woken up by a loud knock on her door. At first, she didn't know where she was, but then she remembered and went to open the door.

There was Naruto with an annoyed look.

'Oh oh...', Sakura thought. 'Doesn't look good...'

"For goodness' sake, how long do you intend to sleep Miss Haruno?"

"S-Sorry! I must've overlooked the time!"

Naruto sighed and looked at her with a less annoyed look. "Go and get dressed. The meeting is in 45 minutes and my intention isn't exactly to show up late...It would be bad for my awesome image." With that he turned around and went away leaving Sakura alone on the doorstep.

"Arrogant idiot..." she muttered as she shut the door and went to the bathroom to take a bath.

After taking her morning bath the wrapped a towel around her body, took fresh underwear, wore a pink blouse that matched her hair color and a grey suit. She looked at herself in the mirror and was satisfied with the result and went down to take a quick breakfast.

When she arrived downstairs she saw Naruto sitting alone on a table and looking really nervous. She approached him with her breakfast and sat down beside him. Naruto was startled at first because he didn't expect her to sit beside him and looked at her.

"Uhh Miss Haruno? How may I help you?"

Sakura looked at him and saw the nervousness in his eyes.

"Mr. Namikaze...I know that you are nervous, but I am very sure that you will be able to convince them. I believe in you." with these words she smiled at him and concentrated to eat her breakfast.

Naruto couldn't believe his ears when he heard what she said to him. All this time he behaved like a total egoistical jerk to her and she was sitting there encouraging him because he was nervous for the business meeting. What kind of amazing woman was she?

Naruto looked back to his small laptop and let out a deep sigh.

"Thank you..."

He was so silent, Sakura almost overheard him whisper. She smiled at him and without words went back to eating. To be honest, she was also quite nervous. Maybe not as Naruto, but nervous. She really hoped that Naruto could convince the Sabakuno Foundation because from what she heard of the boss, the boss wasn't one to play with.

When Sakura finished eating both of them stood up and went outside the hotel where a limousine was waiting for them to drive them to the meeting place.

Both of them were thinking the same thing.

Well, I'll stop here :) I know it is pretty short, but the next chapter will be longer. I promise! And it looks like Naruto and Sakura are starting to get along after all *winks* Well, please review and rate and we see in the next chapter :D Bye, bye!
