Chapter Seven
Kaoru had gotten much better at being a ninja after a few days. On the 5th day, Iruka allowed Kaoru to take a break for the day. So, Sakura dragged Kaoru all over town buying clothes and making poor Naruto to suffer the pain of carrying half the bags back to Sasuke's House. Kaoru wasn't lazy so she carried the other half. After that day, Kaoru had practically a full dresser. Kaoru had placed the dress Sasuke gave her inside the closet of her new room. The room had ocean-blue walls with a beige carpet. There was a desk and chair. Her dresser was next to the entrance and she had a comfy bed with an end-table. After taking a picture with Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura, she framed it and she placed it on the end-table. Afterwards, it was decided that she would be placed on the team with then people she was closest with, Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto's team. Soon, Kaoru and Sasuke were becoming better acquaintances. Kaoru wasn't sure if she could call Sasuke a friend, just yet. Now, today Kakashi had called the team the meet at the bridge as early at 7am.
"He's late! Because of him, I couldn't even blow dry my hair!" Sakura was telling to truth because a few of her hairs were indeed sticking up.
"Yeah, I didn't get to eat my ramen, and for what?" Naruto agrees.
"Shut up you idiots," Sasuke said annoyed.
Kaoru smiled at Sasuke. She knew that he was just as annoyed as Sakura and Naruto; he just wanted to seem like the competent one.
Catching Kaoru's smile, Sasuke smirked back. Over the week, Sasuke became less distant from Kaoru, he was willing to smile, or at least smirk, for her.
"Hi guys!" Kakashi said out of no where.
"YOU! YOU'RE LATE AGAIN!!!" Sakura and Naruto yelled at Kakashi.
"A black cat crossed my path s-"
"LIAR!!"
Sakura and Naruto proceeded to yelling at Kakashi, not that it would help.
"Anyway, I wanted to let you all know that the Chunin exams are coming up, I want you all to participate," Kakashi said calmly.
"Chunin Exams?"
"The Chunin Exams allow genin like your-selves to rank up by taking an exam,"
"Ok, I understand,"
"I think you should have the rest of the day off, you can train the rest of the day, or do anything else to prepare,"
At that everyone got up and left. Naruto was going home to train, Sakura was going to dry her hair really quick, and Sasuke and Kaoru were going home to train together.
Kaoru decided that she better change into something else, obviously because she was going to train.
She quickly changed in to black pants and a light –blue short sleeved shirt and walked outside.
Sasuke smirked and said, "You take too long,"
Kaoru just stuck her tongue out at him and proceeded to walking to the forest with Sasuke following close behind.
Kaoru then did a few stretches then stood up straight. Sasuke then asked if she was ready.
"As ready as possible!"
Sasuke then charged at Kaoru, but she side-stepped and then tripped him, causing him to land flat on his face. Kaoru began to laugh, but then Sasuke grabbed her and pulled her down to the ground with him.
"Thanks Sasuke," Kaoru said to the ground.
"You are oh so welcome," Sasuke said sarcastically while getting up. He helped Kaoru get up then pushed into a tree.
"Wha-?" Kaoru was cut off by lips pressing onto her own. Her eyes widened in shock, but nonetheless pulled him in deeper. They pulled away after 2 minutes, they needed air.
"Let's go home, I think that was enough 'training'" Kaoru blushed.
"Not nearly enough," Sasuke whispered.
Sasuke then crashed his lips against Kaoru's once more.
She tastes like cinnamon…
Sasuke pulled away, leaving Kaoru in a dazed state. Sasuke smirked at her then embraced her.
"Uh um, I think that we should go inside," Kaoru stuttered out.
"Whatever,"
Sasuke locked his lips with hers once more, then trailed behind her into the house.

After dinner, Kaoru went into her room and began staring at the moon.
"Chunin Exams? I'll probably just slow them all down," Kaoru said grimly.
"Sasuke kissed me, but does that mean that he likes me as more than just a friend? He's a human we can't possibly be together..." Kaoru said quietly.
"No matter how I want to be…"
Kaoru then changed into a lavender night-gown, brushed her teeth and lied down on her bed and fell asleep.

Sasuke's POV
It's that dream again.
Sasuke was floating in darkness, just like the dream he had last week.
I watch you, fast asleep
All I fear, means nothing…
What is this dream trying to tell me?
In you and I, there's a new land…
Angels in flight…
My Sanctuary, My Sanctuary
Where fears and lies
Melt away…
Music in time…
What's left of me? What's left of me?
"Sasuke-san?" the voice sounded like Kaoru's.
"I'm sure that the darkness is coming…"
"We'll face it together"
Face what together?
Kaoru's image only smiled, before it faded away, leaving Sasuke alone in the darkness.
Sorry if it wasn't long enough, but my mom's going to yell if I don't get off the computer, please send reviews! -
