"Hi" –Talking

Hi –Inner Sakura

Hi-Outer Sakura

Recap:

The actions I chose surprised every one in the room, including myself a little bit. I went up to him until we were only inches apart. I did the most unexpected thing. I slapped him.

Chapter 2: Changes

Sakura's POV

I acted as if what I had done was the most common thing. However, inside, I was in a daze. Before my emotionless mask slid off, showing everyone weakness, I walked out the room.

Way to outer! That'll show him to mess with our feelings!

What are you still doing here? I thought I out grown you.

You didn't out grow me. You'll never out grow me. I've just been keeping quiet for three years.

The best three years of my life.

Hey! That's mean! Anyways, Back to that damn Uchiha. I think you should've slapped him harder. I mean put some chakra in it girl!

………..

What's wrong? Oh no, don't tell me you're in love with him again.

No way! Not in a million years! I will never pay any more attention to him that I have to.

Good, cause we don't need another heartbreak.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

I'm always right. I'm your inner after all.

Yeah, sure you are.

Thank you for finally acknowledging me……………wait a minute, was that sarcasm?

Maybe.

Sasuke's POV

Did Sakura just…slap me? I couldn't believe it. My number one fan girl just slapped me. What the hell happened while I was gone? Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Naruto laughing his head off.

"Hahaha, teme just got slapped by Sakura-can! That's the funniest thing I've ever seen!"

"Shut up you dope."

"Make me you bastard."

God, being away from Konoha so long made me forget how annoying and stupid Naruto could get. I heard a sigh from the Hokage.

"Well, now that everything's been taken care of, welcome back Uchiha. Oh, and………..EVERY ONE GET OUT OF MY OFFICE!"

Naruto Kakashi ran like the wind. I just walked out. There was no way I was going to afraid of a woman, even if she does have temper issues. I met up with Naruto outside the Hokage Tower. He was as white as a sheet.

"Man, Grandma can be really scary sometime, eh?"

"Hn"

"What are you acting all calm for? Admit it, you were scared."

"Not really."

"Tch, arrogant teme."

"Hn"

"Well, as much as I enjoy having this conversation, I got a date with Hinata-chan."

"Hn….you finally realized that that Hyuuga liked you."

"Hey, I wasn't that slow. Besides, at least I have a girlfriend. You don't."

"I don't need one. It would be a waste of time."

"Yeah yeah, well, I gotta go, see ya!"

He disappeared in a puff of smoke. Well, since I'm back, might as well have a look around town.

Sakura's POV

"Are you serious! Sasuke's back!"

"This isn't something I'd joke about, Ten Ten-chan.

I was at Ten Ten's house, telling him all about Sasuke's return. She's usually the first person I go to to talk about major issues. We've become very good friends after Sasuke left. Mostly because we were both two of the few kunoichis our age that actually took becoming a shinobi seriously.

"Well."

"Well what?"

"What are you going to do? I mean team seven will be complete again. You'll be seeing each other a lot. Do you think you can handle it?"

"Yeah, why wouldn't I?"

"Well, are you sure you're 100 over him?"

"Come on Ten Ten-chan, you know me. I've answered that question thousands of times already. Besides, I'm way too concentrated on training and missions to be in any type of relationship."

"Whatever you say Saku-chan, but you better keep your word, cause you were a wreck after Uchiha left."

"I know, but I older, smarter, stronger and-"

"-Too good for him."

"Sure, lets go with that.'

Then, Ten Ten's watch beeped.

"Opps, gomen Saku-chan. But I gotta go. I have training."

"No problem, see ya around?"

"You bet."

We both exited her house and went in opposite directions. I guess I should head home since there was nothing else to do, maybe study a new technique or something. However, I met up with Sasuke along the way.

We both stood there for awhile, neither of us moving an inch. I felt kinda nervous because he was staring right into my eyes. Finally, he spoke.

"I didn't appreciate the slap you gave me back there."

"Well, you deserved it."

He didn't say anything. I didn't want to waste any more time so I began to walk. As I was passing him, He said something that was very surprising.

"You've changed."

I was shocked, but I recovered quickly for a comeback.

"I know, and I'm glad too. And because of that, I can pull my own weight during missions, I'll actually be called a kunoichi, and I'll never make one of the biggest mistakes of my life by crushing on a bastard like you."

I quickly disappeared in a swirl of cherry blossoms. I didn't care if my statement was harsh, cause whether he like it or not, Sasuke's going to learn to changes that happened around him.

AN: I hope you liked it. I tried to make this chapter longer. Please review!
