I like you
With the long three-day suspension over with Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura where back to there normal school lives. Walking to school, test taking, homework, club meetings, textbooks, and much, much, much more. Back to everything that was high school and away form everything that was suspension. Like eating all day and night until you pass out (Naruto) or sleeping all day only waking up to get food and to us the pot (Sasuke and Sakura) or chatting on the computer (all of them!).
"I cant' believe that I want to hurt Sakura again so we can get in trouble!" Naruto blurted out with a big smile on his face.
"NARUTO YOU BITCH!" Sakura yelled as she started hitting him repeatedly.
"Come on you guys or we'll be late for school…again…" Sasuke added in.
They nodded as Sakura took a look at Naruto's watch. He had it on upside down and as soon as she figures out what time it was the bell rang!
"SHIT! WE ARE REALLY LATE NOW!!" Naruto yelled as he stared to run towards the high school.
"DAMN IT NARUTO!" Sasuke yelled at him as he ran in front of him.
"YOU JUST HAD TO BE AN ASS! DIDN'T YOU NARUTO!" Sakura yelled as she got in fount of Naruto and next to Sasuke.
When they finally reached to school they ran towards their lockers and grabbed everything they needed for class and ran to homeroom.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?! LATE AGAIN! THEN STAND OUT SIDE!" Mr. Guy yelled at the three of them. They all left the room and sat in the hall waiting for Mr. Guy to come out and give them another lecture about being late.
As they all sat in the hallway Sakura saw something…it looked like a note or something. As Naruto and Sasuke argued about who's fault it was Sakura slowly moved closer to the note. She reached and grabbed it and shoved it into her back pocket in her skirt. As the two of them continued to argue Sakura listen in on what Mr. Guy was rambling on about.
"Sssssshhhhh guys! I thing Mr. Guys said something about try outs!" Sakura whisper to the both of them, she had to whisper or Mr. Guy would have come out and yelled at them a little early than they wanted.
"Alright kidos! Try out day is today! Everyone who signed up for anything will be called down from call all day today and some will be after school! So we should start to hear them call down people very soon! So no one lie about if you are trying out or not because I have a list SO NO LIES! Now I have to go take care of three student who think it's fun to be late for my class!" Mr. Guys said as he started walking towards the door.
"TRY OUTS!" Naruto yelled out load for the whole world to hear him…and he yelled right in front of Mr. Guy.
"NARUTO UZIMAKI!!" Mr. Guy yelled at him, as his eyes seemed to pop out of his head.

Naruto finally finshed taking his crap and ran back to the field. Hinata grabbed her water from the girls' locker room and ran back to the field. I hope I'm not going to get in trouble for this, Naurto and Hinata thought not paying attention to where they where going as they both turned the corner. BAM! Naruto and Hinata ran right in to each other! They both laid on the ground as Naruto stuck his head to find that he hit Hinata.
"Are you ok Hinata?!" Naruto asked as he stood up above her.
"I-I-I-I'm fine Nar-Naruto" she answered as she tried to pull herself up.
"Let me help you Hinata!" he said as he helped her stand up.
He looked down at Hinata's knees and saw that she was bleeding.
"Hey Hinata! You're bleeding!" he told her sounding worried.
Hinata looked down at her knees and saw that she was bleeding and it was a lot for just falling on the ground.
"Here Hinata," he said as he picked her up and carried her to the bench underneath the big tree out front of the school. He placed her on the bench as slowly as he could so he wouldn't hurt her."Now we can fix you up Hinata."
"Nar-Naruto…I-I'm fine" she insisted.
"No you're not Hinata! Now let me help you out alright!" he told her as he pulled out some Band-Aids form his pocket. "I got them from Sakura…she says that I fall to much and I needed them."
Naruto put two Band-Aids on both of her knees. "There you go Hinata. Feel better?" he asked as he smiled looking into her eyes.
"Th-Thanks you Nar-Naruto" she replied with a whispering voice as she looked right into him eyes.
Naruto got up off the ground and sat next to Hinata. Hinata started to blush as soon as Naurto sat down. He looked over at her and saw that she was blushing and he started blushing as well.
"So Hinata…I-I-I have something to tell you…" Naruto struggled to get out.
"Yes…what is it Naurto?" she said looking right at him.
"I-I-I woul-would like to ta-take you o-out this Friday…you know like to a movie…with you and me sitting next to each other…eating popcorn and candy…and maybe…just maybe holding hands…and a kiss at the end…" he finally was able to get out of him mouth with a cherry red face.
"Nar-Naruto…are you asking me out?" she asked still blushing.
"Yeah! I know I suck at this kind of stuff! Sasuke told me so!" he said but was interrupted.
"How would Sasuke know?" she asked with this weird look on her face.
"OH that! I practiced with Sasuke!" he told her with a big smile.
"You practiced what with Sasuke?" she asked hoping that he was not going to say what she was thinking about in her head.
"Asking you out! I even made him wear a black wig! I guess we shouldn't have done it at school because people thought we where guy and I was asking Sasuke out and shit like that! And he said that I sucked at it! So I was worried that I would mess up when I asked you and I did! So here goes nothing! Will you go out with me Hinata!" he told he with his cherry red face holding her hand.
"OF COURSE!" she said as she hugged him tight. He hugged her back and that was that. Naruto and Hinata are now oafishly going out!

—After School—
"I'll be home in few minutes!" Sakura yelled as she was left her house.
"Don't get lost!" someone yelled form inside the house.
"One time and no one lets you live it down! Later guys!" she yelled back at them as she ran down the stairs and was off.
Sakura was heading to the story to get a few things they needed for dinner and come right back home. Without getting lost or kidnapped or hit by a car or well you get my point. Little did she know that was not the case for tonight.
Sakura walked into the story got what she needed, paid for it, and left, nothing out of the ordinary right? …Wrong…
I can't believe they still wont let me for get about getting lost! I was seven what did they except! Me to come home without getting lost! Losers! BAM! She hit the ground and looked up hoping the she just tripped. She saw something she was hoping not to see. She saw two men…not just two men…but two men that had a bounty over their heads.
One of them was Kunio Masayoshi who was wanted for killing and raping any young girl he could get his hands on. The other one was Ryota Shichiro who was wanted for the same thing as Kunio. Together they were known as The Killing Two, they where both partners in crime.
"Hey there good looking! What's cooking!" Kunio said looking right at her.
"Got your ass up bitch!" Ryota yelled as he pulled Sakura up and grabbed her arms.
She looked at the both of them. They looked at her and her miniskirt and the same thought popped up in both their heads. Sakura knew she was in for it now.
"Hey there cutie! You want to have a party to night?" Kunio asked with a big grin on his face.
"No thanks! Now let me go!" she demeaned.
"Nice try little lady but if you don't want to go party I'm afraid that I'll have to shot you then." Ryota told her showing her the gun he head as he pointed at her head.
"Now that we're clear about all of this…lets start the party." Kunio said as he came closer and closer to Sakura.
"AAAAAWWWWWWWW!! GET AWAY FORM ME!! LET GO! LET GO! LET GO!" she yelled hoping that someone would hear her cry.
Silence.
"Looks like no one cares about you cuite!" Kunio said was he was right on Sakura.
His heads where heading strait for her skirt. Something hit Kunio in the back of the head. He looked down and saw ice-cream on the ground. He looked around and saw some guy standing on the other side of the street.
"DID YOU THROW THAT ICE-CREAM YOU WHORE!?" Kunio yelled at the man across the street.
"Yeah! I throw it! So what about it?" the man replied to Kunio.
"YOUR DEAD KID!" he yelled at his as he started running towards the man across the street.
The man throw a book bag at Kunio. Kunio hit he ground more pissed then he was before. The man ran at Kunio and stepped on the book bag as it crushed Kunio.
I know that book bag…it's Sasuke! Is that Sasuke! No it can't be him…he's still grounded!, Sakura thought to her self.
"Alright lets get on thing strait here…You let Sakura go and I wont have to kick your Asses!" the man yelled at the both of them. The street light finally hit the man face and it was…
"SASUKE!" Sakura yelled as she started to cry.
Sasuke looked over at Sakura thinking in his head how to get her away form them. Kunio saw that Sasuke was looking away and he pushed him off him. Sasuke hit the ground and Kunio rolled over on top of him and took out a knife and healed it at Sasuke's throat.
"How are you going to save her when you can't even say yourself!" Kunio yelled at Sasuke's face.
"I'm not done with you yet loser!" Sasuke said as pulled out a knife out of his pocket and stabbed Kunia in his stomach. Sasuke pushed Kunia off of his and stood up stepped on the knife in his stomach. Sasuke started to run at Sakura.
"KILL HER RYOTA!!" Kunio yelled at Ryota. Ryota put the gun back at Sakura's head and pulled the trigger.
All that Ryota saw was blood and lots of it and no girl. He looked over to his side and saw Sasuke holding Sakura. Sasuke covered in blood…his blood! Ryota shot Sasuke and missed Sakura.
"HOW DID I HIT YOU!?" Ryota demanded to know.
"I jumped when you shot the gun and push Sakura out of the way…instead of killing her you just shot me." Sasuke explained.
Ryota looked right into Sasuke's eyes and saw nothing but anger and inside his steely eyes he also saw the thrust for blood and the desire to kill.
"Kunio! We should leave!" Ryota yelled at Kunio.
"Why? You chicken?" Kunio said as he tried to get the knife out of his stomach.
"I am now!" he yelled as he ran to picked up Kunio. He throw him over his shoulder and ran for his life.
"GET BACK THERE YOU CHICKEN!" Kunio yelled over Ryota's shoulder.
"NOT IF YOU WANT TO LIVE!" Ryota yelled back at his as they ran off.
Sasuke, blood running down his face, looked at Sakura. "Are you ok Sakura?"
"I-I'm fine Sasuke…but you're not" she said as she ripped her t-shirt and tied it around Sasuke's wound. Sasuke was shot in his side but his blood went everywhere.
Sasuke stood up when Sakura finished fixing him up. He was still holding her as he stood up. He placed her on the bench underneath the Sakura Tree in the park. He looked at her as she was looking into his eyes.
"Sakura…" he said looking into her eyes.
"Yes Sasuke" she asked looking into his.
"I have something to tell you"
"Like what Sasuke?"
"I-I-I've been trying to say it for a long time but just never could find the right way to say it to you but…here it goes. Sakura I've liked you for a long time. I liked ever since the first time I heard your laugh…since I saw your smile…since I saw your ember eyes…"
"Sasuke…"
"I know it sounds weird and stupid but I do like you Sakura…I like you a lot. You just seem to make me happy…you've always made me happy Sakura…"
"Sasuke…"
"And I was hoping that you could continue making me happy…so I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't just like you Sakura I…I…"
Sakura kissed Sasuke's check. He blushed. She blushed. He looked right into her ember eyes and know that he didn't even have to say the he loved she already knew. She looked into his cold steely eyes and fort he first time she could see something warm about his eyes…something she had never seen before…he really looked like he was happy to be with her. Sasuke kissed Sakura on the lips and that was that for them.
"I love you too Sasuke" Sakura whisper into Sasuke's ear.
"Do I even have to say it?" Sasuke whisper back as he kissed her again.
Sakura remember that she had a note that someone had dropped in the hallway. She thought that Sasuke might know how wrote it. She pulled the note out of her pocket and showed it to Sasuke.
"Hey Sasuke…do you know who wrote this?" she asked as she handed him the note.
Sasuke opened the note and looked at it. "It's for you Sakura."
"For me?!"
"Yeah! It's for you"
"From who?"
"How about you read it when you get home"
"Sure…why not?" "May I walk you home Sakura?"
"Sure Sasuke!"
Sasuke heeled Sakura's hand as he walked her home. They reached Sakura's house and Sasuke didn't want to let go of her hand and she didn't want to let go ether.
"Goodnight Sasuke…" Sakura said as she walked to the door.
Sasuke grabbed Sakura's arm and kissed her. "Goodnight Sakura…" Sakura walked in side her house and Sasuke walked home to his house.

"I'm home Itachi" Sasuke said as he shot the door.
"Itachi! Itachi! Are you home? Anyone here?" he asked as he looked around the apartment.
Sasuke finally found Itachi asleep on the coach waiting for Sasuke to get home. Sasuke couldn't carry Itachi to his bed so he coved him up with some blankets. As Sasuke was going to bed he heard…
"You back Sasuke?" Itachi asked asleep.
"Yeah Itachi…I'm home."
