And this story too needed updating. It's… nearly thrown off page one. Ah, I can't handle that. "grin" so here we go. Oh, my reviewers first.

Edo Rice Ball: Oh come on, even if what you say is true, listen to what Gai says: hard work itself is a talent Aw, that's nice of you but you don't have to go trough so much trouble for lil' old me. The occasional review from you yourself is more then good enough for me.

Animelover5.6: Well… yeah!

Rostta: Oh come on… of course Sakura would think Lee is cute. "grin" if that's what the pairing is all about right? I agreed that they think and do stuff they normally wouldn't but that's why it's fanfiction, right? Er… alright Thanks for telling me though.

Otaku no baka: Good question, it wasn't very smart of her eh? But we'll see.

Hitomi Hotaru: Yeah poor Lee, such a hard worker.

Black-wolf: Thank you! And I love cliffhangers, haha.

KawaiiScorpio: I'm glad you like it! Well, here's the long awaited update then. Heheh, we'll find out what our own little genius of hard work (indeed) will do.

And that's that! Yay!

What are you doing?

Sakura's heart was beating down on her chest. The darkness the bed granted her could only hide her so much. And any ninja could sense her presence. Well… any healthy ninja that is. She tried her best concealing her presence though. She heard Lee yawning loudly and almost giggled. But she was too afraid still and at the same time still a little sad. The tears she had shed had made her tired too. She wanted to sigh, but once more stopped herself. She had to be as quiet as she could manage to be.

"A third daffodil." She heard Lee say out loud. "Why would Sakura give those to me?" Sakura wondered if Lee was really lonely enough to start talking to himself, also, he couldn't believe he was so dense as to not realize why she would give those flowers to him. Could he not simply think about it? It would be so much easier if he came up with the answer himself, instead of Sakura having to tell him. Her heart was still pounding in fear of being found and because of the… love she felt. How would she explain her current position? How?

She closed her eyes, tired. She heard Lee humming a few times, bringing a small smile to her lips. The boy truly was never sad was he? But then she heard him sigh. "I am so bored!" he groaned. Sakura couldn't help but roll her eyes. "I wonder if Sakura will visit me today?" If Sakura didn't know any better, she would've sworn he knew she was there and simply tried to lure her out. But Lee wasn't like that. If he knew she was there, he would surely call out to her. Sakura tried her best not to sneeze because of the dust prickling her nose every now and then.

She wondered how long she was going to have to stay there. Probably…all day. She put her head on her arms again, constantly blushing because of the boy she knew was mere inches above her. And then suddenly, a door slammed open. Sakura immediately recognized the shoes of the fifth. The current hokage of Konoha. Tsunade if you will. "Lee, have you seen Sakura anywhere?" she asked in concern. Sakura blinked. She was searching for her? Why? "I have not seen her, Tsunade-sama." She heard Lee answer. "Is she gone?" she heard him ask. The concern in his voice was extremely obvious.

"No one has seen her since last night." Tsunade said, sighing. "That girl, she still needs to fill in those reports." Her mutters still sounded after she had closed the door. Ah right, those papers. Well, they would have to wait for now seeing how she was kind of… in a bad…situation. "Sakura is gone…" she heard Lee murmur. "I wonder if it is my fault." She almost screeched as she suddenly saw a foot hit the ground. Lee couldn't possibly get up now! He couldn't!

After a lot of weird noises, joined by groans and grunts of pain, she saw a second foot hit the ground next to the first one. She had to stop him! But how? Lee's wounded leg was trembling uncontrollably as she saw him get up. "I must go search her." He said. Sakura clenched her eyes shut. This was it. She was not going to let Lee hurt himself because of her. "Lee, get back in bed immediately!" she said loudly. She saw the boy stop the very small step he had just taken and plunge back on his bed, the mattress brought down harshly onto Sakura's back for a second or so. The two feet were still dangling over the edge though.

"Sakura-chan? Where are you?" Lee asked. Sakura refused to answer. If he still didn't know where she was, it could only benefit her, right? "Alright, you do not have to tell me." Lee stated. "But, why are you here?" he asked again. Sakura once more refused to answer. She grit her teeth. What the hell now? Even if she managed to sneak away the upcoming night, the questions would remain. Lee was not one to forget events. She heard Lee laugh a little. "Are you not a little bit too old to play hide and seek Sakura-chan?" Lee asked.

His laughter had sounded so carefree, and so gentle it made Sakura giggle, for real this time. As soon as the sound escaped her mouth, she clasped her hands against her mouth, only creating even more sounds. She kept herself from groaning at her own stupidity though. She heard Lee chuckle. "You are cute when you giggle." He commented. Sakura blushed a little bit. "I think you simply did not want to fill in those dreaded papers." He said. Sakura wondered how much longer he was going to take talking to her while she didn't even respond. Lee had provided her with a good excuse though. Those papers. Though she thought Lee had presented her with that excuse on purpose.

"I wonder if you are in my closet?" he wondered aloud. Sakura saw Lee's arm reaching out to the closet next to his bed, barely reaching it and clumsily, and probably painfully opening the door. Sakura saw that inside it was a stack of towels, ready to plunge down onto the ground any second now. And indeed, with Lee not being able to move very much, and especially not quickly, the stack of towels did hit the ground, scattering. "I guess you were not in there." Lee said laughing. Oh, he found that funny. The nurse was going to give it to him. Washing and ironing those things took way too much time to simply let them drop to the ground like that.

"Then perhaps you are… well… underneath my bed." Sakura gasped because she knew she was found out. Because she gasped, she took in so much dust, she immediately began to cough. Her eyes teared up a bit because of that but that was the least of her problems. She looked to the right side of the bed, expecting to see Lee emerge there any minute now. But he didn't. What was keeping him? Ah, perhaps he went to get Tsunade! No, he would never do that, right?

"Found you." A cheerful voice said. Sakura immediately lifted her head banging it against the bed frame. While rubbing the sudden sore spot she turned her head to the left to find Lee laying on the ground, his hands next to his head that was lifted a bit, looking at her with a slightly worried and slightly amused look in his eyes. "Good morning Sakura-chan." He bluntly stated as suddenly, a door opened.
