AN: Sorry for that wait! Here's another Chapter! PLEASE R&R! Luv ya! Also sorry for any mistakes, I promise to go back and fix them soon; in the meantime I am trying to update all my other stories too. :)
"Is she okay?" A worried Naruto asked.
"Yes, she's sleeping now." Kakashi said walking into the kitchen.
Naruto was relieved, unfortunately as fast as he felt relieved he was angered. He stared coldly at the Uchiha who was staring blankly out the window. How foolish and selfish one man could be was beyond him. Naruto had loved Sakura for as long as he could remember. He even backed off after Sasuke returned, even though he really could never let Sakura go.
"Just say Naruto" Sasuke said, he could obviously feel the gaze of the said man.
"If you want her tell her, don't play games anymore. If you wait too long you will lose your chance to have her" Naruto practically threatened.
Sasuke was surprised by the threat, but really wasn't threatened. "I suppose you think you will be the one to take her." Sasuke chuckled seeming amused just by the thought.
"Will you two end this?" Kakashi said rubbing his temples, something he does quite often anymore. "Why don't you just both take her and get it over with?"
"WHAT?! HOW CAN YOU SUGGEST SUCH A THING?!" Naruto fumed.
"Really Kakashi those books have rotted your brain" Sasuke added shocked by the suggestion.
Kakashi slumped onto the nearest chair. "That is not what I am implying, you two haven't changed. You treat Sakura as if she was a toy that got handed down and is now worthless. Sakura's misfortune does not make her any less of a woman. I thought two men who loved her would have treated better than that." He stated sounded disappoineted with his former students.
A week past since that night and a new tension formed in the small guard house.
"Sakura are you coming to breakfast?" Kakashi yelled out the window.
As usual no reply came. Kakashi sighed and set the table. Everyday he asked, hoping she would join them, but everyday he got the same no response.
"You three need to go into town and fetch some supplies today." Kakashi said as the other two men began eating.
"You think that wise?" Sasuke questioned sipping his tea.
"Just behave" The silver-haired man replied handing them a list of needed supplies. Of course he wanted to stay behind to catch up on much needed reading time.
Without argument any argument the two men silently ate their breakfast and headed out.
"Do you want to tell Sakura or should I?" Naruto asked
"It doesn't matter. Let's just hurry up and get her." Sasuke sounded rather irritated.
It wasn't hard for the two to spot the pink-haired kunoichi. For today she happened to be relaxing in the sun or sunbathing whichever you prefer.
"Hey Sakura we need to go and……"
Two wide-eyed shocked males stared down at their topless sleeping teammate.
THUMP "AHH… WHAT THE…."
Sakura was pounced on by Naruto, who was quickly covering up her bare chest.
"Are you crazy Sakura? Anyone could just waltz over here and find you half naked. How can you just show yourself like tha..."SMACK-SLAM
Naruto was sent flying through air and slamming hard into the base of a tree. "What is your problem? I was just sunbathing; don't get so worked up over nothing." An angered Sakura was standing now, still unaware of her topless form.
Suddenly a weight fell on her shoulders startling her. She turned to see Sasuke wrapping her over shirt around her. "Please don't show yourself so freely to other men Sakura" He whispered before turning away.
Sakura was surprised by actions and his words. For a moment he was almost like the Sasuke that she used to know. 'Why is my heart racing? It's been so long'
"Hurry up you two or I'll leave you behind." The Uchiha yelled over his shoulder.
"Huh….What? Wait where are we going?" A confused, but now eager Sakura ran after him, leaving a half conscious Naruto behind.
"Great the shop's closed" Naruto whined.
"Well if you wouldn't have taken so long, we would have been here earlier." Sasuke snorted
"Me? It's Sakura's fault, she's the one who knocked me out." Naruto defended himself pointing at the said woman, only to soon realize she wasn't there. "Hey where is Sakura."
The two men looked around and indeed she was gone.
"I swear this woman is impossible." Sasuke mumbled to himself.
They happen to be in the same small village they were in before, so finding her was not too much of a task, since there weren't that many places to go. What did surprise them the most was what they found her doing?
In the middle of a small park was the said woman surrounded by a group of children. From what they could see she was holding something and some of the kids were crying. Naruto of course was eager to get closer, unlike Sasuke who didn't want to draw attention.
"Sakura what are you doing?" Naruto asked peering over the heads of the children.
"We….we...hurt it" a little blonde haired girl cried peering up at him with tear filled eyes.
A confused look covered his face. When he moved in closer he saw Sakura holding a small rabbit and a green glow was emitting from her hand. Naruto watched as the children looked on with a hope that she would save it. Naruto knew of course that this was an easy task for her.
Soon enough the rabbit was as good as new. "There he'll be fine now" Sakura smiled and set the rabbit down, who quickly hopped away from the now excited group of children.
"Thank you miss" A little boy said.
"That was amazing, how did you do that?" Another asked.
"It was nothing" She giggled. "Just be more careful next time ok" She patted him on the head.
Naruto was smiling when she approached him. She seemed to be a different person today for some reason. "That was nice of you" He smiled.
"I couldn't just let them cry now could I" She answered
"Well are you done saving all the furry little creatures now?" Sasuke asked not looking to interested in the whole thing.
Naruto broke out laughing. "Sasuke, I never thought I would hear you say something like furry little creatures." He laughed, earning him the Uchiha death glare and a giggle from Sakura.
"Anyway, did you two find the shop?" Sakura asked trying to not giggle again.
"Yeah but it's closed. We'll have to wait till morning." Sasuke said returning to his emotionless self.
Sakura sighed. "Alright then let's head back."
"What? You mean we have to come back tomorrow" Naruto pouted.
"What choice do we have Naruto?" Sakura asked.
"Why don't we just stay at the inn? I am sure Kakashi won't mind." Sasuke said out of the blue. "What?" He asked looking at his stunned comrades.
"Okay then" Sakura said strutting past Sasuke. "But I refuse to share a room with either of you" She confirmed heading towards the inn.
"WHAT!?" Sakura yelled slamming her fists on the desk, frightening the innkeeper. "What do you mean you only have one room available?"
"I….I'm sorry, but it is all we have." The poor man coward behind the corner.
"Ugh…..I'm leaving" Sakura exclaimed turning to leave.
"We'll take it" Sasuke said grabbing Sakura by the arm and snatching the key from the desk.
"Hey! Stop let me go!"
"Just shut-up already would you" Sasuke scowled.
"I don't mind sharing a room with you Sakura" Naruto grinned at the flustered woman.
"Well I do now let me….hmf"
She was silenced by a pair of lips covering her own. To her surprised they belonged to Naruto, her eyes would wide with shock. The grip that Sasuke had on her loosened as he looked on also a little in shock.
Naruto pulled away. "Why must you always be so difficult?" He sighed and continued up the stairs. Sakura watched as Sasuke soon followed. She ran her finger tips across her lips. 'Naruto'
AN: Yeah I know got a little silly, but oh well. Please, tell me what you thought either way. :)
