Chapter Two: Nausea, Heartburn, Indigestion...
Recap:
Sakura sweat dropped and fell to the ground anime-style, while Sasuke muttered "dobe" quietly under his breath. If the emotionless Sasuke understood, then why didn't Naruto?
/recap
"Naruto, I don't think that's it..."Sakura said empathetically.
"Hm? Great! That means I don't have to go to the scary psychiatrist!" Naruto exclaimed as Sakura sweat dropped once again, though this time, without the falling.
"No Naruto, I think you're in love," Sakura pointed out.
"What do you mean, Sakura-chan? I already told you that I loved you..." Naruto pointed out as if he were talking about the weather. Sakura's cheeks were tinted red, from either embarrassment, anger, frustration at his stupidity or all of the above. "As a great friend of course!" Naruto added as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly after seeing Sakura's reddened face. Even he was smart enough to know you didn't want to make Sakura angry.
"Not her, dobe," Sasuke decided to join the conversation after figuring their so-called 'sensei' wasn't going to come any time soon. Why did he even bother to wake up early if he knew their ever-punctual sensei would be late, was the question that he had asked himself every morning.
"Eh? You know too, Sasuke-teme? Then who?" Poor Naruto had a confused and curious look on his face. Not an easy thing to pull of, mind you.
"Obviously it's..." "HINATA!" Sasuke had started, only to be cut off by Sakura.
"Ugh, so loud, how troublesome," Shikamaru walked up to the bridge looking half awake with one hand in his pocket and the other cleaning his ear with his pinky from Sakura's loud outburst..
"Shikamaru! What're you doing here?" Naruto asked as he spotted the pineapple-headed chuunin.
"Kakashi wanted you to know that training would be canceled because he has a mission with other jounin. He told me to tell you yesterday, but I just woke up a while ago. Asuma-sensei went with him, so we have the day off too," he yawned and headed back.
"Aw man! We waited all that time for nothing!" Naruto whined as he watched Shikamaru's retreating back.
'Not exactly nothing, Naruto. Let's go to Ichiraku to discuss this new-found love you've recently discovered!" Sakura pulled Naruto and Sasuke by the arm toward the ramen stand. "You come too, Sasuke-kun."
Sasuke was about to complain, though decided not to. It's not like he had anything to do anyways. Training with wooden dummies wouldn't help much either. It was much more interesting watching his golden-haired teammate go through puberty.
Once they reached Ichiraku, they noticed that there was barely anyone there. It was a little late for breakfast after waiting for their perverted sensei and it was just a little early for lunch, so therefore, they were eating brunch.
They all grabbed a seat on a stool, Sakura in between the two boys.
"One beef ramen to start off please Ayame-neechan!" Naruto announced.
'What about you two?" Ayame asked Sasuke and Sakura. Sasuke ordered a beef ramen as well and Sakura ordered chicken.
While waiting for their orders to be served, Sakura decided to continue on with the previous conversation.
"So Naruto, how do you feel when you're around Hinata?" Sakura started off.
"Well," Naruto thought for a while. "My heart beats really fast and as I've said before, I wanted to beat dog-boy to a pulp," Naruto put his finger to his chin in a thinking position, then excitedly said, "Oh! And my stomach does flip flops!" Naruto finished off.
"So I see," Sakura said excitedly, "The feeling that your heart is going to beat out of your chest? That's love. The feeling that makes you want to squish the guy flirting with her; that's jealousy and the feeling of your stomach doing flip flops- that's indigestion. I'd slow down with the ramen if I were you." Sasuke smirked a bit at the last comment.
Just then, the orders were placed upon the table. They all cracked their chopsticks and mumbled "Itadakimasu" (except Naruto, he shouted it), then started eating.
"Well, maybe you should talk to Hinata," Sasuke pointed out after he was done eating and Naruto was on his 3rd bowl. Sakura and Naruto stopped eating and stared at him. "What?" he asked, a little freaked out and peeved at the staring.
"I think that's the most you've ever said," Sakura pointed out.
Sasuke replied with a simple "Hn." and they other two just sweat-dropped at the sudden change.
"Well, that's a good idea, Sasuke-kun!" Sakura said after their little moment. They finished their bowls, paid for their meals and headed toward the training grounds where Hinata's team would usually be.

R&R please!
