Author's Note:
This is chapter 2 of my story "Unaltered Bonds".
Inspiration: Song "Way Back Into Love" sung by: Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore [donotown!]
About this chapter: Sakura needs to find a way to distract her from Sasuke's disappearance and has to request something in order to do so.[;
Preview: The pastel haired girl awakened and rushed outside her home's comfort to find herself under a crescent moon and chill of a brisk evening. The same crescent moon frowned upon her bringing her memories of the first time she felt true love for Sasuke and not a crush of a fan girl. The same moon shone upon her when she had screamed all of her heart for him to come back and much more than that. When Sakura walked along the sidewalk she saw who she was hoping to find under the shadows.
After sharing a ramen with the whiskered boy who seemed utterly quiet, Sakura suspected that something had happened, but decided to keep the peace.
"Hey, Naruto." the rosette said breaking the silence. "I have to go home now. Thanks though."
Her whiskered friend finally seemed broken out of the spell of confusion and smiled.
"I'll walk you home Sakura-Chan!" he offered again with his eyes full of joy, but something was different about them. She shook her head thanking him for the offer while rejecting it kindly and began to take a few strides forward until he grabbed her arm.
"Sakura-Chan, do you ever think of Sasuke?" he asked with a fake smile and noticed this was the wrong way to make her tell him what had occurred this morning. Her eyes twinkled with the flow of a few tears and he let her go home. He watched her pink hair run from the narrow street and fade into the town of busy villagers. "Hmm... One more bowl please!"

Sakura tossed and turned her body around the bed unable to sleep comfortably.
She let out a moan of a broken heart and dozed into a three minute nap.

"Lady Hokage," she said softly and saw a familiar smile that came from Lady Tsunade.
The blonde walked slowly towards her dazzled with bewilderment as she stared into the apple-green eyes that stared into her fierce chocolate ones.
"What is it? Sakura," she asked. The rosette shook a bit nervous wondering if what she had wanted to say was the correct thing to ask her and if the honorable Hokage would laugh at her request.

I would appreciate reviews and also criticism! Thanks for reading and I'll try to get chapter 3 done by the end of this week. (:
