Kakashi watched the two males knowingly as they showed up together the next morning, walking apart but their minds on the same thing. Kakashi wondered whether the two boys had finally accepted their feelings if they hadn't already the day before when he had spotted them both looking smug, quite the same as they had this morning. The sensei smiled under his mask before instructing the three ninja to their task for today.

I groaned when Kakashi sensei sent us out into the village to help out with the day-to-day chores that needed doing before turning my back and walking off to the village alone. I so desperately wanted to hold Naruto's hand but that was out of the question, especially since we would be among the villagers. I'm sure two gay guys walking hand in hand down the street wouldn't look to safe now would it? I choked down a laugh as I sauntered into the village and helped out one of the nearby shops, the shop owner requested I help her move the barrels around to the back. As a good shinobi I helped her, picking up a barrel at a time and carrying it around the back, ignoring her flirtatious remarks and the constant battering of her eyelids. Was every girl this stupid? When the job was done I sighed in relief before turning and heading out into the street once more only to find Naruto talking to some brown-haired git. What guy would wear their hair in a ponytail? I gave him the evils before turning and storming down the street, feeling pretty angry with Naruto. I had thought we were together but hey. Who cares right? I don't need an annoying blonde haired Dobe. Ok so what if I did? I didn't need that particular one. I groaned realizing I really was only kidding myself. I did need Naruto, I have just been reluctant to tell him so. I walked past him smiling smugly as I felt his eyes boring into my retreating back all the while wondering if he needed me too.

Dear diary,

Today has been kinda weird. Sasuke and Naruto arrived at exactly the same time to training and both seemed incredibly smug. A girl's gotta wonder right? What's up with those two? And anyway, Sasuke could never be gay. Though, I sometimes wonder if he's anything at all. He doesn't seem interested in any of the girls in the village nor any of the boys for that matter. I really hope I'm wrong though cuz one day I wanna be with him. I'm gonna be better than that annoying Ino girl.

Love Sakura.
