Hello everyone! Well, I hope you enjoyed that story called "Confession" I know it was a change of pace, but sometimes I guess it's nice to write something where Sakura pours her feelings out over a deceased man. L Well…anyway here's the other chapter to the story of "Demon in the High School" Also, I might right another one-shot after this story. J So you all know. Enjoy!

KsNandS- Awe…so sweet. I never thought a demonic young man and a cute little cherry blossom looked so beautiful together.

Kishimaru- …yeah I guess…

KsNandS- Something troubles you?

Kishimaru- …yeah…what if Sakura discovers big brother's identity? I mean…look…if she wakes up and he's still like that she's most likely going to hate him!

KsNandS- (Sighs and looks at the sleeping couple) You never know Kishimaru.

Kishimaru- Huh?

KsNandS- There are things in a person's heart where they just do not understand enough…but…people like Sakura…are special. Her heart…is like a heart of that exact opposite.

Kishimaru-Whaddya mean?

KsNandS- I mean…that Sakura's heart excepts Naruto any way he looks. I have reason to deduce that even though Naruto is cursed…to live this life of hellish passion…Sakura will always care for him.

Kishimaru- Wow. Is that why you write this stuff?

KsNandS- (Chuckles) That is exactly why my dear boy. Express yourself through writings and words. But…if those writings and words are going to hurt someone…try to contain them as much as possible. But…if they just keep coming after you…do something about it.

Kishimaru- …okay…so if someone calls me 'shortie' or 'shrimp' does that mean I fight back?

KsNandS- Not exactly. Only when they do things excessively, or keep doing these mean and hurtful things. That is the time to stand your ground! If they can't see you for who you truly are Kishimaru…then stand your ground. That's the reason why I retaliate back when I'm flamed. I do not accept anything negative.

Kishimaru- Ooooooohhhhhh…okay then. Well…it's almost sunrise. So…does that mean we begin?

KsNandS- Why yes it does. Ready?

Kishimaru: Yep!

KsNandS, Kishimaru- Let the Story Continue.

Disclaimer-I do not own Naruto.

Claimer-I own my stories, OC's, and lemons (Etc.) Thank you for reading, please enjoy this chapter. J

So…cold…dark…gloomy…gray…depressing. The village of Konoha…over the night…was now coating in dark, gray clouds. The temperatures was a chilling -5 degrees Fahrenheit. Small, white snow had come into over that night as it fell like weightless and angel-like tear drops onto the ground, laying them selves flat on the dirt and piling up. Konoha was completely dark…covered…in snow and gray. It looked as though all life had been drained from the village itself. It was…a silent…still…cold and gray night. Snow began to blow more rapidly and vigorously! The wind whistled through the streets creating a monster-like, eerie moan that wasn't like anything on this Earth! In the small house…that held a red aura emanating from the window seal two people slept. The chilly temperatures sure had caused the temperature to drop some degrees…but that was it…since the houses heating system was in-active. Sakura slept peacefully. Her body felt so warm and comfortable near this, heater-like object. She had felt warm all night long and enjoyed, the sense of warmth enveloping her body. It was at a perfect temperature, and her body soothes under it.

But…the "Heater" wasn't exactly something that was…really a "Heater" at all. Naruto slept soundly, his…red glowing and slightly bubbling aura warming both him and Sakura. His fox-like bubbly ears twitched as the eerie moan of the wind filtered the silent night. His demonically blood-red eye slightly opened up, and from on side to another, scanned the room for any unwanted guests. He let out a dark breathily sigh and his eye looked at the pinkette snuggled into his chest. The black lined that creased his lips turned into a…demon-like smile. Naruto's glowing red hand snuggled her closer into his body, so she felt the soothing heat emanating from his person. The room was completely dark…no light shined…except the eerie and ominous glow of the crimson bright aura surrounding Naruto's body. It…was very calming…and soft, since Naruto's emotions weren't riled up. His…tail-like limp wrapped itself around Sakura's thin waist. Naruto closed his eyes…after scanning the room one more time, then fell asleep. Sakura seemed okay…she wasn't tossing or turning…and her emotions were…calm and gentle. Naruto felt…so loved right now. He wanted this to last…forever. Sakura's presence in the room with him made him feel…much like someone who had done the right things…someone who was not possessive…well…maybe a tiny bit…okay so very possessive over her…but who had ever heard of a possessive…demon-like High School senior who let her be free? Thatw as rare. So long as she remained close to his heart…and that she always believed in him…he would always be there for her. The blond let out a small purr and then fell asleep. Inside Sakura's dreams…it was abnormal. It wasn't much a nightmare…at least for now.

Sakura's Dreams…

As the two pre-teens shared their kiss…the electric feeling coursing through their lips…their hearts racing madly. The kiss was passionate…loving and…it felt so right. It felt like they were made for each other, like they both fit together perfectly. The boy opened his eyes, and stared at the beautiful young girl kissing him.

"…w…wow…" The boy whispered in bewilderment. "…that was…awesome…" He added. The girl blushed slightly.

"I…yeah…it was great." She replied. The boy stared at her, a pleased grin smothered on his face. He stared dreamily into her eyes…he got lost in those…jade colored irises.

"You're so beautiful. I feel like the luckiest guy on the planet to have met you." The boy said with a handsome smile. The girl slightly blushed.

"…really? I…I really don't think I'm all that beautiful. I got too big of a forehead. (AN: Oh boy…spoiler. XD) And plus…I think I'm completely ugly." She said with a saddening frown.

"Who said that crap?" The boy asked sitting in a cross-legged position. She sat on her knees and stared him in his glittering cerulean eyes. "I mean…look at me. I have these stupid…whiskers (AN: …another spoiler… XD) on my cheeks." He said. The girl stared at him.

"But they make you look so cute and adorable…and…handsome too. My huge forehead is way worse than your cute whiskers." She said and hid her forehead with her bangs.

"Don't do that. It only makes you look…kinda like a sheep-dog when you do that. Keep your forehead loose." The boy said and removed the bangs from obscuring her forehead. "Besides…you look a lot cuter when your forehead is open. I think it brings out your eyes a lot more…and your face." He added. The girl giggled.

"Okay then…don't slick these back." She said. The girl took his whiskers and pulled them out, causing them to stick straight out of his face. "Hahahaha! You look like a fox! You look so cute! Besides, I think those really bring out your handsome side. Where did you get them? I've never heard of someone that had real whiskers." The girl asked. The boy sighed.

"Well…it really isn't in my position to tell ya. I got these after a horrific event…I still have scars left from the last beatings to villagers gave me." He said. The girl stared at him, clearly worried about his well-being.

"What kind of scars?" She asked. He looked at her.

"Well…I-"

"Let me see them. Maybe I can help you." She cut him off. She really wanted to help him. No one deserved the be treated like such trash…not the way he was treated every minute of his life.

"I…umm…are y-you sure?" He asked. He was nervous about showing his bare skin… The determined look in her eyes said everything. "…okay then…if you're that determined to help me…then alright." He said. He slipped off the top part of his kimono and showed her. Her eyes widened.

"They…they're horrible. Why do the villagers do these disgusting things to you?" She asked. He shrugged.

"…I…uh…I dunno why." He stuttered. Her small soft hand felt the bruises on his torso. He blushed slightly.

"Okay, let's see your back." She said calmly. He turned around. She gasped as she saw scar-like marks obscuring his lightly tanned skin. Some of them even began to bleed again after he hunched over. "Oh my…you're bleeding here, let me-" As she scrounged up something to find to heal him, she looked at his back and her eyes widened. The mark where he was bleeding…was now gone! "H-How did you do that?" She asked in bewilderment.

"Do what?" The boy asked. She touched his back.

"One second there was a clear cut…and…now it's gone." She replied rubbing his back. The boy shrugged.

"I dunno…" He said blankly. "But…can you keep rubbing…that feels so good. I can really use…the massage." He sighed. She smiled.

"Okay." She replied. She continued to rub his bare back. He sighed in relief. His back had been hurting for a while and he could really use the nice massage she had so gratefully agreed to give him. Her hands danced over his bare skin and he sighed as it sent shivers down his spine. Her soft and silk-like hands caressing his warm and roughly soft skin. The boy closed is eyes, and let her hands take over.

"Wow…you're really good at this…" He complimented with a sigh. She giggled.

"Thanks. I just want to make you feel better is all." She replied. He sighed. After a few minutes of rubbing his back, the girl stopped. "Do you feel better now?" She asked. The boy turned and nodded.

"Yeah…yeah I feel great now. Thanks!" He answered. He pulled the top of his kimono back over his upper body and sat next to her. He laid down with his hands behind his head. "Well, ya gonna lay with me?" He asked, a foxy smile crossing his lips. She sweetly nodded and lay down beside him. She used his shoulder as her pillow. The boy wrapped an arm around her and held her close. "I hope we stay like this…forever…" She whispered. She nodded.

"Me…too…" The girl whispered back as they stared into the yonder, dark blue, star-lit sky.

End of Dream…

Sakura smiled in her sleep…cuddled into someone's chest. It didn't take too long until she wondered what she wascuddling into. It was very muscular, strong and…very warm. She liked it…very much. She felt an arm…pulling her body more into the warm figure's chest. It didn't take long until she heard slight snoring. Her eyes opened and looked around. The room was dark still…and it was pitch-black…no light even penetrated the house at all. She looked up…seeing a dark figure. It was hard to make out his appearance as her eyes began to adjust. Slowly, she could make out the figure. Spiky hair…big body…very strong arms and…a familiar voice that she could make out as his slightly snored through his nose. It took a minute…but soon he clicked in her mind. Her eyes widened and she was fully awake now!

Naruto…was sleeping with her. She froze instantly as a massive blush crossed her silky white cheeks. If she didn't know better, her face would be glowing in the darkness…cherry red. Her heart raced madly and for some reason…she felt horny. Naruto shifted slightly as he pulled her closer, cuddling her. She quickly slid loose of his grip and stood up on the cold carpet floor. She looked at the time, seeing that it was 5:00. She sighed and pulled her bangs back over her head. She shivered…the air was unusually cold. She walked over to the window and saw it locked and the curtains obscuring the view. She opened them and her eyes widened in amazement! Snow…and frost lined the window. Sakura unlocked it and slid it up, seeing the beautiful flakes fall. She gasped as the snow was piling high! It was awfully cold though…but still it was snowing!

She looked, and saw a man walking out in the streets below. He wore a Konoha High School imprint on his jacket. He carried a bunch of papers, a hammer, and a nail.

"Excuse me! Sir?" Sakura called out. He looked up.

"Oh, hello there. Ms, what are you doing up this early?" He asked. Sakura gave a nervous chuckle.

"Umm…enjoying the cool morning air? Hehehe…anyway, I noticed your Konoha High emblem. What's going on?" Sakura asked. The Emblem was just an orange Leaf symbol, on every uniform ever made. He smiled.

"Well, I guess I'll just tell you that you're lucky. It snowed so much last night that…well. Konoha High School is closed today." He said with a generous smile. Sakura's eyes widened in excitement!

"Really!? You're not joking!?" Sakura asked eagerly. He shook his head.

"Nope. So you can sleep in all you want. Now go back to sleep. I got papers to nail to tell other students." He said. She nodded and closed the window and curtains. She was so EXCITED! School was closed! Her calling out caused a certain someone to wake up and he sat up and stared at her, his cerulean eyes making out her frame. To say the least he was embarrassed. He looked to see if his clothing was on, and surely it was. He stared at her. Sakura gave a tiny squeak and shrill of excitement. She turned around and then froze. Emerald and Cerulean eyes met and blushes awoke. Naruto scratched the back of his head.

"…uh…maybe I should…get going now." He said and stood up. He found his trench coat on the floor and picked it up, buttoning it up for the cold and pulling down his sleeves. Sakura watched as he stared at her. He looked at her. "Uh…see you for school I guess." He said.

"Naruto," Sakura said before he could walk off. He turned towards her and she smiled. "School's closed today." She said. Naruto stared at her in disbelief!

"What!?" He exclaimed. He ran over to the window seal and slid the glass frame up! Sakura shivered and Naruto's eyes widened. "Whoa…I guess it is closed today. YES!" He shouted! Sakura pulled him back in.

"Be quiet!" She hissed! "People are sleeping silly!" She said shushing him. Naruto sweat-dropped and scratched the back of his head and she closed the window and the curtains, eluding the room in darkness again.

"Ehehehe…sorry." He said and cleared his throat. He looked over at the bed they were once asleep in and rubbed his neck. "Uh…well I-"

"It's too cold Naruto. Stay here." She cut him off. He froze instantly and looked at her.

"What? But Sakura I can't. I mean…don't you feel sorta violated that I just waltzed in here and slept with you? I…remember…you feel asleep while I carried you back here. But…I…uh…guess I decided that you…shouldn't be alone when you sleep at night. …does that even make sense?" He asked.

"Some of it. But," She said and walked over to him and hugged him. "I want you to stay here…I enjoy your warmth." She whispered. Naruto smiled and hugged her back.

"…oh…okay then. I hope I didn't violate you or anything last night." He said, an imp of worry in his tone. Sakura looked at herself.

"No…I don't think you did. I seem fine." She replied. Naruto sighed in relief. Sakura began to take off his coat and she folded it and set it on a nearby dresser drawer. She stared at him and he back at her. Sakura hesitated for a second…before her palms were placed on his chest. Feeling around, Naruto's muscles her palms felt. Her breathing slightly intensified as she roamed over his shirt. She became very curious…and pulled his shirt out from being tucked inside his elastic pants. Her hands wandered up his warm and soft skin. She felt naughty for some reason doing this…but his muscles were like sweet nectar to her hands. His warmth was too intoxicating to her…like a drug…like her own little bag of heroin. Her hands trembled slightly as she moved up, in her mind she said the names of all of the muscles he had.

"Abdominals…Pectoralis Major…and…he's just so warm I barely think straight." She said. Sakura felt Naruto's hands hold her wrists gently.

"If you wanted my shirt off…all you have to do is ask Y'know. Or…you can do it." He whispered warmly at her. Sakura looked at him and gulped.

"I…just feel so…perverted and naughty right now." She replied. Naruto shrugged.

"So? Who cares? Who gives a fuck?" He asked shaking his head. Sakura stared at him before she began to slid off his shirt. She closed her eyes as Naruto raised his arms and his shirt came right off. He popped his neck and stretched. "You know, you can look." He said. She opened her eyes…and as soon as she caught sight of his abs her eyes seemed glued directly on him! She blushed at him.

"You…must really work out a lot…" She said. He thought.

"Well…if you put it a certain way…I wasn't really the only one who gave me these muscles." He said. She looked at him confusingly. He waved it off. Her hands roamed around on unknown territory, shaking and trembling. They were barely touching his skin. He rolled his eyes and sighed. He grabbed her wrists and pushed her hands onto his chest. "Better?" He asked. Sakura gulped. All of his abdominals were perfectly trained, and the muscles on his sides were also excellently worked. He had a 12-pack basically saying. His pectoralis major's were perfectly made. Sakura couldn't help but think dirtily about them.

"Oh my…those are lickable abs right there…and his pecks are so…manly looking. His arms are cut perfectly…I can see his veins from his biceps trailing all the way down to his wrists. He's a walking god!" She said mentally. Naruto cocked his eye brows at her.

"You like?" He asked. Sakura blushed and nodded. "Good. Cause I think you and I should be asleep right now. We've already wasted nearly ten minutes. We could be in bed, snuggling and just enjoying it all." He said, teasing her. Sakura gulped and nodded. Wrapping an arm around her they both walked over to the bed-side. Sakura pulled the sheets away. Good thing Naruto didn't have his shoes on, he was about to walk out into the cold without his shoes. She sighed and shook her head. She climbed in bed and lay her head on the pillow. Naruto climbed beside her. He was so tall his feet were nearly off the end of the bed. Sakura felt Naruto's arms wrap around her and lock her in. She let her soft hands glide over his biceps and then down to his hands. She could smell his intoxicating, dope-like, scent wavering into her nostrils. It smelt a bit like…he had worked out…a bit like sweat and slightly like…ramen putting it a bit into context. She loved it. The pinkette found his left bicep to be a comfortable pillow and laid her head on it, turning so that each and every time she breathed she took in his scent. In the darkened room, she felt she was in a sexy position with him. Perverted thoughts about that "Showering with a hot naked man" idea flowed through her mind and he made her hornier than she already had to be! She closed her eyes and let her dreams take hold once again.

Sakura's Dreams…

Sakura was in the shower stall…sitting under the head of the shower as the water cascaded gently down her body. Her eyes were closed as the water was perfectly warmed to her liking. She sighed, slightly flushed in the face. It wasn't too long before she heard the door to the bathroom open and close. She let out a silent gasp. She heard foot-steps…like shoes tapping against the floor. She saw a tall figure on the other side of the steamed glass. Watching as it swayed from side to side oddly. She heard rustling…like the discarding of clothing. She saw the figure pull down something from it's waist and slip it's legs through, tossing the garment aside carelessly. Walking up to the shower stall, Sakura backed into a corner and heard something click. She slightly gasped and watched as the door began to open. She gulped and covered herself as well as she could. She tried to speak…but her voice was gone! She could only watch as the door opened more and more…then watch as a cerulean eyes peeked through. The door opened further and further until finally, Sakura could see blond, spiky hair and whiskers. The door swung open and Sakura's eyes nearly popped out of her head! He waked in and shut the door behind him. He stepped under the water, letting it cascade down his body. Sakura's eyes followed the flow of water all the way down his body. Her eyes found his…member and she gulped at the size. He let out a deep, manly sigh and looked at her.

His eyes looked up and down her body. She was beautiful. He reached out his long, masculine arm and pulled her in, letting the water drench them both. He licked his lips as he leaned down to her ear.

"Found you…" He whispered hotly into her ear canal. Her heart raced as she felt his member hardening between her legs. "Can you open your legs and give my guy some sympathy?" He asked. His sexy tone automatically let his member up into her legs. "Thank you…" He said softly. She nodded. He member between her legs made her face redden. "C'mon, you've always wanted me to do this to you…Sakura…" Naruto said in a teasing manner. Sakura gulped under his body mass. He legs trembled slightly and she felt really horny with his cock rubbing against her woman-hood. Naruto leaned down and turned his head sideways. "Just relax and enjoy…" He whispered hotly into her ear. He began to suckle at her neck. She moaned, feeling his teeth playfully nip at her skin. Naruto's lips made small smacking sounds as he trailed down and began to bite slightly on her collar bone. Then trailed up, dragging his tongue across her skin and then to the other side of her neck. Giving her small love bites on the side of her neck. Sakura wrapped her arms around his back, and before long Naruto lifted her off of the ground and thrust her up against the wall! Sakura gasped as the chilly tile made contact with her bare skin! Naruto held her sides and looked at her, his hot breath close to her lips.

"This place…it doesn't seem right for such an occasion such as this…does it?" He pondered looking at her for the unanimous answer. She shook her head and Naruto chuckled. "Alrighty then…a…little change of scenery please." He stated. Soon, they were no longer in a shower, and Sakura heard no water running at all. Her skin met warm air and the sound of…a waterfall? She opened her eyes and they widened as they fell upon the site of a glorious, bountiful oasis. Naruto was standing in the crystalline water pond as a beautiful waterfall cascaded down wards with a soothing and gentle crash. It was night time, the moon and stars glistening and causing the waters to sparkle enchantingly. Surrounding them was a lush a green forest. Beautiful flowers and plants blossomed everywhere and candles around the pond that lit the atmosphere…were just mesmerizing! Sakura looked at him, and the blond only had a mischievous grin plastered upon his face.

"Welcome to our oasis, where tonight you and I shall be enjoying moments of love and satisfaction that only you and I can achieve alone. You shall be moaning and groaning into the night as I pleasure you beautiful and magnificent body…with my own." He said huskily. Sakura flustered as he lead her down into the waters. He sat behind her and scooped water with his hands and poured it on her body, letting the warm waters trickle softly down her bare skin. Sakura leaned back into Naruto's chest as he washed her. She let his hands glide over her body and graze over it seductively. She closed her eyes and let out deep breathily moans for him. "Ahh…your moans are like the sound of an angel soaring across the sky playing it's melodic trumpet tune." He said with a sexy growl. Sakura blushed slightly, and Naruto took notice of his affect on her. "But…I long for another melody…my love." He said. She opened her eyes and sat up, turned around and looked at him. "I…long for the melody of passion and intimacy that only your angelic voice is capable of producing in symphonizing, glorious and gentle tunes that would make a songbird jealous." He finished.

Sakura stared at him in awe. She was flattered…but…she had never heard Naruto so…linguistically talented before. His deep, husky, man-like voice saying such nectar sweet and passionate things to her made her swoon. This Naruto…seemed…like a more romantic…version of her once known Naruto. Could…this be him in reality of…in the sequence of dreams? …this…had to be a dream…but…Sakura wished for it to be reality! Naruto's words of deep romance were causing her to wish he would continue and tell her more about what his dreams are…rather than that of hers. The blond young man looked at her. His cascading eyes shimmering in the moonlight and sparkling liquid. "Come…closer…my love. Please…come closer so that y aching skin is getting it's much needed nutrition that it so wishes from your…milky, silk-like skin." He begged and grabbed her body and gently placed her in his arms. His golden skin, warmth and masculinity…made her close her eyes. He wrapped her in a warm embrace and snuggled her. The only word she could think of…at a time like this…was;

'Home…' She mentally whispered. Her arms slowly laid themselves on his hands, gently…traveling up and feeling his thick biceps, the veins protruding from his arms…the soft--yet slightly rough--skin she caressed under her touch. Reaching his neck and traveled down his back and then to his sides, then she began to pleasure his chest with her golden touch. He was like her family now…like she felt he had always been deep in the depths of her heart. She found him somewhere…some place and she had known him for longer than when they met in that school, SHE JUST KNEW THAT! Her heart could not deny it! The migraine inducing flashbacks, the loving admiration for him, and more, how her heart always warmed when her exact thoughts were concentrated on the blond shinobi. It was like…he just happened to belong there…somehow… She hardly knew the guy yet she was beginning to see things that she had never imagined she would see… Those strange nightmares…they replayed over and over and over…it haunted her…that last nightmare did. That demonic…character…in the center of that bedroom…looked…all too familiar. Yet…she could not understand. Her mind pondered and the blond looked down. "My love…something troubles you?" He asked. She slowly looked up at him.

She said nothing--since she could not--and shook her head. Naruto stared willingly into her emerald eyes burning with passionate intimacy in the flickering candle-light. "I wish for you to be happy…and that you aren't alone anymore…like how your…so called "parents" did. They left you…poor…and without support. If only I had just…been there for you. Their arrogance…betrayal…and their ignorance will never be welcome. So help me…if they com back like the dogs that they are…so help me…" He gritted his teeth at the demonic thoughts dancing through his mind. He sighed and calmed himself. "That…should not be known to you. I don't want to ruin this…romantic and intimate moment we are having with each other. I want…Sakura…I wish to make sweet, sweet love to you." He said, his lustful voice sending shivers down her spine. "It is something I wish of you…I want…you to be happy because to me your happiness is all that matters. I love you…Sakura…Haruno…" He whispered. She stared at him, her soft eyes plagued with confusion and shock. "What is there to be confused about? Simple…I wish to make you a happy woman. Hehe…but…that is…do you accept me?" He pondered. Sakura cupped his cheeks gently. Though she could not speak…her eyes gave it all away. He leaned down and kissed her.

"I'm glad you accept me…Sakura. You will not regret this…moment." He said hotly as he laid her body down upon his as he sat back and drifted towards the shallow section of the area. He put Sakura up against the land and made his way behind her. He gripped her breasts and kissed her neck. "I…shall make you…happy…" He whispered and inserted his-

Dream Sequence Interrupted!

Sakura awoke from her dreams and opened her eyes. The room was still dark…since the curtains were shut. Once thing she felt…was that she was wet in her panties. She must've been horny…hell she wanted to go back to that dream! Too bad it wasn't real. She felt Naruto's arms cuddling her and his chest against her back. She was still lying on his arm and she felt so comfortable. With each breath she took her nostrils attracted his scent. It was as if she couldn't get enough of it. She took a deep intake of oxygen and let his luscious scent fill her body. She shivered over it. Sakura wanted a bit more…and she decided that this was…not the position she wanted. Hoping Naruto would not awaken, she gently turned over to where her face was directly nuzzling into his chest. She felt more warmth and her body moved on it's own and snuggled deeply into Naruto's person. Nuzzling her face into his torso, she began to inhale his strong and intoxicating scent. It loosened her up. Without a second thought…she was out. Naruto, however, was wide awake. His optical vision, due to his alter ego's affect on his body, was able to see Sakura's movements clear as crystalline water. To say the least…he was awed by this…he felt loved by this action and he didn't want it to end…ever. He smiled gently before sighing and closing his eyes. Though he had to admit…he…did smell something that DID make him horny. He wasn't exactly sure what the devil it was…but…it smelt good. He closed his eyes with a yawn and fell back to sleep.

Some hours later…

Naruto slept without a single sound. The blond was having an enticing dream about ramen…which happened then to turn into a dream about Sakura…which then mixed the dream into a "Sakura bathing in nothing but ramen" dream. A slightly perverted grin crossed his face with a blush as he saw the image floating around in his head. It caused him to awaken with a mumble. His cerulean eyes pried themselves open and the blond was now awake. He yawned and grunted as his eye's adjusted to the dimly lit room. His night vision kicked in and pretty soon he was able to see clearly. He looked around. His head stopped as his eyes fell upon her sleeping form. She looked so at peace, it would be a bother to wake her up from her slumber. He gently laid his head back on the pillow and smiled. He watched as she slept. The way she used his chest as a face pillow was quite amusing. How she used his biceps as her pillow was also nice. Her silky pink hair enticed his skin. Naruto rubbed her back gently as she slept. To say the least, he bet she was enjoying it…even though she was asleep soundly. He hoped she would awaken soon, because he was itching to start the day off! As his eyes stared at her sleeping form, causing him to cock his head to the side like a curious fox, she murmured in her slumber. His ears were keen enough to try and pick up what she was saying. She murmured more, and this time Naruto's keen sense of hearing caught her. His cock hardened in his pants and he flushed!

"Oh Naruto…harder…please harder…don't stop…faster…go faster…" She murmured in a begging tone. Naruto sweat dropped.

"…what ever she's dreamin' it sounds like I'm giving her the thrill of a life-time…" He whispered to himself. Her murmuring continued on and on and Naruto's arousal didn't go away that whole time. In her dreams he must've been going at her hard enough to make her moan like that outside those dreams. She moaned and groaned over and over and Naruto began to sweat bullets! She wasn't helping! He gulped and his hands trembled. He looked at her as she nuzzled her face into his chest. As Sakura continued her murmurs, Naruto wasn't aware of her actions, being that he was solely focused on words alone. Sakura's sneaky hand reached out and grabbed his hardened dick. Naruto jolted and his eyes turned white anime style! "Oh jeez! She's massaging my cock! Don't give into temptation Naruto! No! NO! NOO! …oh…yeeeeaaaahhhh…" He mentally sighed. Sakura's hand rubbed the bulge in his pants. Naruto groaned over it and closed his eyes. His hands trembled and his body let go of itself. He let out breathily sighs of feel good pleasure. Sakura was good at this! Naruto nuzzled his face into the pillow. "Oh Sakura…oh yeah…" He groaned. He wasn't aware that his loud voice woke her up! Sakura opened her eyes and blinked. She adjusted to the light and soon found herself fully awake. She looked at Naruto sleepily. She saw him panting slightly and rubbing his face into the pillow.

"N-Naruto? Naruto what time is it?" Sakura asked. She didn't realize what she was doing and bent his dick. He let out a muffled cry! Sakura sat up…bending his poor wiener again. Naruto let out more cries into the pillow. He grabbed Sakura and forced her down. But that didn't stop her from making his cock a squeeze toy. Naruto jolted! Sakura looked at him. "Naruto! Why did you do that?" Sakura asked in a demanding tone! Naruto muffled something. "What?" She asked getting closer. He muffled again a bit louder. "What? Naruto I can't hear you."

"Let go of my damn dick." He muffled with a stern and demanding tone. Sakura's eyes widened and looked down. Her eyes turned anime white as she saw herself groping his cock. She nearly passed out from the blood rushing to her cheeks. She let go and Naruto sighed and took his head from the pillow. She looked at him blushing like mad.

"S-S-S-Sorry Naruto…that was my fault." She stuttered. God she was acting like Hinata… Naruto sighed.

"It's okay…you just got me…a bit excited with your moaning and groaning…some dream you were having…I'll bet it was the best one…tell me…what exactly was I doing to you?" He asked cocking his eyebrow curiously. Sakura gasped and covered her mouth. Naruto gave her a second look. "Oh, so you were dreaming about me eh? What was I, Naruto Uzumaki doing to my lovely pink cherry blossom?" He asked. Sakura's tinted cheeks made the answer quite clear. Naruto nodded, protruding his lips out. "Ahh…so I was pleasuring you eh?" Naruto asked. Sakura looked around frantically and said nothing. Naruto chuckled and sniffed the air. "Ooooh…someone's a messy girl. I smell something nice…ehehehehe…" He said with a dumb grin. Sakura blushed and shifted in embarrassment. "But it's okay Sakura." He said with a wink. Sakura turned her head and Naruto grabbed her and pulled her into a hug. "Ready to get up?" He asked. She smiled and nodded. She yawned and stretched. The blond got up and out of bed, stretching. Sakura's mischievous eyes watched him. She noticed he had golden under arm hair, quite a bush of it too. She scanned his body, loving every second of her greedy eyes drinking in all of that pure muscle. She got up without saying a word. "You taking a shower first?" He asked.

"So long as you don't come barging in…naughty fox." She replied with a giggle. Naruto chuckled nervously scratching the back of his head. She walked off, with Naruto watching her. The blond sighed, he wondered what they were going to do today, knowing that they had school off today and all. He shrugged and walked out of the room. One thing he noted was that it was cold! He rubbed both of his arms a bit and rubbed his hands together. He was glad his breath wasn't visible, or he would've grabbed Sakura and went back to bed. His ears caught the sound of the water running, knowing that Sakura was in the shower. Naruto walked down stairs and opened the blinds throughout the house. The windows were frosted and the foxy blond could feel the chilly cold radiating off of the window. It was light outside, and surely the ground was absolutely covered in snow. The winters in Konoha were always this way, but everyone loved to see snow once and a while. Naruto sighed and then continued by searching for the thermostat. Finding it near the kitchen he checked the temperature, finding it at a sheer 45 degrees. "Whoa…that's a little too cold for me…let's just notch it up to about seventy." He noted aloud. Turning it up to 70 degrees, he heard it click on. Smiling he then walked into the kitchen and thought.

"Sakura might want some breakfast when she comes out…well…hmm, let's see here." He stated with a nod. Opening the fridge he found some orange juice, some eggs and a few strips of bacon, also noting that there was a loaf of bread on the counter. Licking his lips and nodding he raided the fridge and began to cook. He was sure that Sakura was going to enjoy this meal.

With Sakura…

The pinkette was already out in about 10 minutes. Drying herself off she looked in the mirror. Even though Naruto said not to, she couldn't help but think still that she was…un-attractive. She was not sure exactly why…but…she felt like she was missing something. She looked over her body, and it fell into place.

"Oh…decent breasts…" She sighed and covered them up with her towel. Ino's rude comments were plaguing her still…she couldn't get rid of them for some reason. Sighing the cherry blossom blow-dried her hair and then walked out to get dressed. It was cold today, and she searched through her drawers, finding a pink sweater and a pair of long, comfy and warm red pants. She searched her jewelry box and found that pink butterfly clip. She loved this clip so much for some reason. Giggling to herself she brushed her hair out and put it in her pink locks, clipping it on the side. It was then that the most scrumptious scent graced swiftly up her nostrils. She inhaled and sighed.

"Oh Naruto," She giggled. "I swear, if it's one thing, it's another after another." She said with a smile. Walking downstairs the pinkette watched the bare back of the blond haired shinobi as he was busy cooking. "Look how strong his back is… he's a master piece of masculine art." She noted in a dazed expression. Her emerald eyes graced over his body. She shook her head and snapped out of it. Walking into the kitchen she looked over his shoulder, standing on her toes. The bacon and eggs he was cooking looked excellent.

"Hey, just thought I might cook something' for us both." He said. She smiled.

"Smells delicious Naruto, I'm hungry." She said back. Naruto chuckled.

"Well I'm glad. Now can you keep an eye on these, I gotta go get my shower now." He said. Turning around he leaned down and kissed her on the lips. Realizing what he had done he pulled away quickly. "Wow…that was uh…weird. My body just acted on it's own. Uh…I'll be right…back Sakura." He said and walked away. Sakura's lips tingled slightly. She too was slightly shocked by Naruto's action…but…then again they had kissed more than once. She shook her head, she had to get used to it and stop blushing. She tended to the eggs, hearing the water running upstairs. She bit her bottom lip and sighed in a moping tone. She was glad Naruto had come over, though still she was surprised about him sleeping over. She shook her head of these thoughts.

"Come on Sakura, he's a sweet guy. The least you could do for him is at least let him stay with you. Besides…he's…the only one you've got now…and he's in your life…darn it Sakura…accept him for all he is to you… It feels as though he's always belonged in your heart, right? Then…just let your relationship take it's course. Besides Sakura, you dream of him naked for peat's sake." Scolding herself mentally she took the eggs and bacon off of the pan, seeing as how they were done. Taking out two plates from the cabinet she scooped the food onto the plate and set them down at the table. Pouring them both a glass of orange juice, Sakura placed it back in the fridge. She heard the toast pop up, startling her. Placing the crisp brown bread onto the plates and taking out the butter, setting it on the table, she giggled. Staring at the food, it wasn't long before she began…to feel strange. Her vision began to blur and become wobbly. She took deep breaths. She began to wobble around in the kitchen. Placing her hands on her forehead she gasped slightly, before it came to her like a flying soccer ball.

Sakura's Dimensional Scream…

"Look at this!" The girl said holding up a beautiful white flower towards the boy in front of her.

"Oh wow it's beautiful!" He said with a foxy grin.

KRRRT! (Static)

"You're not hurt are you?" The boy asked as the girl lye there on the ground. She was crying after being ganged up on by another group of girls. She shook her head and sniffled. The boy picked her up and carried her away.

KRRRT! (Static)

"Hehehe, now you look beautiful." The boy said as he put some kind of implement in her hair. She blushed.

"I-I do?" She asked. He grinned at her.

"You bet! Y'know, you're so cute when you dress in pink." He noted. She giggled.

KRRRT! (Static)

"HURRY! GET AWAY FROM HERE NOW!" The boy demanded! The girl gasped as a mob of people surrounded them.

"I WON'T LEAVE YOU HERE TO DIE! I LOVE YOU!" She screamed! The boy turned his head and she gasped. His eyes were a demonic red with slitted pupils.

"I SAID GET AWAY FROM HERE! NOW!" He blared like a speaker, his voice rippling from his throat. She shook her head.

"NO! I WON'T LEAVE YOU HERE! I DON'T WANT TO GO!" She screamed. Getting up she ran to him and hugged him. Burying her face into his black shirt. The boy looked forward.

"DIE DEMON!" A man's voice yelled as a pitch-fork was raised and swung down. The boy reacted and shielded the girl from the attack, turning around quickly and taking the blow. He gasped in agony as blood spurt from his mouth. The girl gasped! He looked at her, his eyes flaring.

"I won't let you hurt her! Grrrrr!" He growled. The girl cupped both of his cheeks. He held her tight as the man took his pitch-fork and held it pointed down, ready to dig into the boy's back. He then thrust the fork down. The girl's eyes widened.

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" She screamed!

End of Dimensional Scream…

Sakura panted and gasped! Feeling wobbly her vision became blurry…and she blacked out.

With Naruto…

The blond whistled a nameless tune as he dressed himself in his school attire. He felt nice and refreshed now! Naruto walked downstairs and saw the food on the table. "Yum, looks fantastic!" He said with a grin. He walked into the kitchen and gasped! His body froze and his eyes widened. He regained control of his body and witnessed Sakura lying on the floor. "SAKURA!" He yelled! Dropping to the floor her cradled her in his arms. "Sakura! Sakura speak to me! C'mon Sakura!" He yelled hysterically! She looked out-cold. Naruto patted her cheeks a bit with his hand gently, trying to wake her up. He checked her heart for a pulse, sighing in relief she had one. He was worried about her. She wasn't coming too. He stood up and ran towards the door, opening it and then shutting it. He rushed her to the hospital in the freezing weather.

The Hospital…

Tsunade sighed as she went over her medical report. She looked at Sakura, lying in the bed covered with a sheet. Naruto held her hand and stared at the pinkette. The woman sighed.

"Well…Naruto we-"

"Is she going to be okay!?" Naruto interrupted the Hokage. Naruto immediately apologized for the interruption.

"As I was saying, there isn't anything wrong with her physically." The Hokage said. Naruto sighed in relief. "However, I did find something very odd with her brain-waves." She said. Naruto looked at her as she showed him the sheet. "See how it's a steady mountain here, and then how it starts to become more violent, hitting a peak, which I'm sure was the strongest point, and then settling down again?" She asked. Naruto nodded. "I'm pretty sure Sakura was hit by something, like a flashback of some kind, but that's my guess. Anyway, she'll be fine, I'm just worried about her is all Naruto. Whatever happened, she was hit hard, and judging by the graph it was something powerful." Tsunade explained. Naruto looked at Sakura furrowing his eyebrows. This worried him consecutively without end. Tsunade sighed and shook her head. "Just don't leave her. She can go. Take her home and put her in bed, if she wakes up, which I'm sure she will, stay with her until she regains total consciousness, is this clear? This is my student you're dating boy." Tsunade said with a stern tone. Naruto nodded.

"I'll stay with her and make sure she's okay. I'd hate for anything to happen you her." He said quietly. Tsunade put her hand on his shoulder.

"You know…Sakura's been searching for a guy that fits your description boy." Tsunade began. The blond looked up at her. "Since the Uchiha's heart shattering rejection, Sakura's been awfully glum, not to mention alone for a long time. But…whenever I see her…I've noticed something…incredible. I see her smiling like she's been healed in some way. I always see her with you walking around at lunch hour and after school from my window. Naruto, I think you've made her a happy girl." Tsunade said with a smile. Naruto's heart warmed at the woman's kind words. He smiled.

"Thanks…but…just seeing her like this…it hurts my heart for some reason." He explained. Tsunade sighed.

"Maybe there's a part of your heart that's searching for something else too. Personally, I think you've found what you were looking for, and I think your heart is doing all it can to heal her on the inside as well. You're a fine young man, and I'm sure Sakura see's more than just a young man, she's see's a real man in you. But, to be that man you've got to protect her with your life Naruto. Give her what's she's always wanted…someone in her life." Tsunade said with gentle ease in her tone. Naruto smiled. "But if you dump her and shatter her heart I'll come after you and rip you limb from limb boy. And I'm quite capable of that." She said before getting up. Naruto gulped. "Now, get oughta here with ya. I have paper work to do and it's not making my mood any better." She said. Naruto picked Sakura up and held her firmly in his arms. Tsunade noticed Sakura's body reacted to his own, seeing the girl slightly etch herself into Naruto's warm body, beckoning it for more. Naruto held her close and walked out of the room. Tsunade watched as the door closed and sighed.

"You'll make an excellent man Naruto…I know you'll make Sakura happy." She said and walked out of the hospital to get back to work.

With Naruto and Sakura…

Naruto set Sakura in her bed and climbed in with her. The blond had wrapped their breakfast up and put it in the fridge, just in case for later. He stroked her pink, silky soft hair. Cuddling her to his body he pulled the covers over them both. He slipped his shirt off, tossing it carelessly onto the floor. Wrapping an arm around her and pushing her close the whiskered young man sighed, getting comfortable and snuggling with her.

"Please be okay Sakura…please…be okay…" He mentally spoke. He worried about her endlessly. He just wanted her to be okay, he wanted her to be safe. Seeing her on that floor passed out put him on red alert! Seeing as how she was incapacitated at the moment, he could only worry endlessly. The blond silently lay next to her, worried sick about her well-being. He kept wondering if she would wake-up or stay like this…in a coma possibly. He shook such thoughts from his mind at once! "That's not gonna happen while I'm around." He said mentally. Sighing, he stared at the wall, then looked at Sakura. He wondered what was going on in her mind right now. "What is she dreaming about, and what was going to happened to her?" He pondered. Nothing came to his mind. Deeply inhaling for a moment, he cuddled her to his chest. He stared at her…never taking his eyes off of her forme in the gray shaded room. He could hear a few people outside, talking and walking about. Huffing a sigh, puffing out his cheeks and expelling his whiskers, he leaned down. His animalistic instincts were, slightly catching on. He rubbed his cheek against hers, letting out whimpers and licking her cheeks a few times. He gave a snort and laid his head on the pillow. His cerulean orbs stared at her. He knew he'd e there for a while…but so long as she was in trouble, he'd always be there for her.

2 hours Later

Naruto had nodded off and was slightly snoring. It had been 2 hours since Sakura's 'accident' and it had them both wound up sleeping again. The pinkette roused about a bit and mumbled. Her head felt like it was on a pin-wheel and the room was swirling everywhere. She had no idea where she was at the moment…nor had she any idea how she got there. Her head ached and she felt nausea creeping around. She clutched her head and groaned in discomfort. Her head felt like it had been beaten like gong, and it still was. She opened her eyes and scanned the room before her. It was light inside, casting a gray glow from the adjacent window. She looked next to her, and she felt head slightly heal itself at the site of Naruto, snoring next to her. Smiling the pinkette chuckled at his behavior. Well, they did have a snow day today, she shrugged. Besides, this would give her more of a chance to be able to bond with Naruto better if she cuddled next to him under the covers. She knew his pants were on, so it was all good. She cuddled into his chest, taking in his glorious, fresh scent. Sakura wondered if they were just going to spend the whole day sleeping. She shrugged and sighed, thinking to herself about her dreams.

It wasn't just her perverted dreams about him and her, but it was also about her nightmares. Everytime she was alone… alone at home she always saw herself running from that monster. And the time when she saw the poor thing chained to the floor. Whoever this person was, they seemed very tormented. Sakura thought about most of the hatred he received daily from the villagers. Rubbing his chest, she looked up at him. He was so at peace when he lay there pleasantly dreaming. Gently, she smiled and laid one small kiss upon his whiskered cheek, causing him to snort. She giggled and put her hand over her mouth, holding in her burst of laughter. He began to grunt and purr in his slumber, twitching his nose, causing his whiskers to wiggle about. The pinkette clamped her mouth shut!

'HE'S SO CUTE WHEN HE DOES THAT!' She mentally squealed. Naruto let loose a snort and a huff. The rosette just watched him as he raised his hand like a paw and began to paw his hair. She loved it when he acted like… well… she guessed he was part animal if he was doing this. Either way she loved it! He was so special! His tongue protruded from his mouth and he licked his lips. She felt giddy over watching him. Watching Naruto was like being at a theatre for a stand up comedy act! She took her finger and touched his nose. It twitched and she giggled girlishly. As she toyed around with his animal-like antics, she felt her stomach growl. Blushing slightly she chuckled. "Well then… I guess I'm hungry. Ehehehe…" She said sweat dropping. Naruto's ears twitched and he opened his eyes. Adjusting his vision into the gray room. He yawned and smacked his lips together. Sakura noticed his awakening and smiled. "Morning sleepy-head." She said with a wink. Naruto sighed and smiled at her.

"Well… more like after noon, but whatever works for you." He said with a returning smile. She looked at the time.

"It's only Ten thirty (10:30) silly fox." She said and patted his spiky blond locks. Stroking his hair he greeted her with a grin.

"Well, we slept for about 2 hours… and, I'm ready to get up. Also, how are you feeling?" Naruto pondered. Sakura shrugged.

"I feel fine now, but I'm still a bit wobbly. My head feels like it's spinning on an axis." She replied. Naruto brushed a few strands of her hair away.

"Well, let's hope it doesn't happen again. If it does… there's something definitely wrong." He said. She nodded in agreement. "Well… we can go downstairs and continue our breakfast if ya want." He suggested. She smiled.

"Yeah, I'm hungry!" Sakura said. Naruto sweat-dropped and with that they both walked downstairs, Naruto not even bothering to put his shirt back on. Sakura opened the refrigerator door and scanned the shelves. Finding their breakfast she grabbed them and took them out. Closing the door she turned around and sighed. "We have to have a cold and soggy breakfast all because of me…" She sighed.

"Sakura, it's not your fault though." Naruto told her. She looked at him and sighed.

"Whatever you say…" She said and huffed sorrowfully. Placing Naruto's plate in the microwave she began to re-heat his meal. She hated when she had to microwave something. As she stared and the turning plate, Naruto walked up behind her and wrapped her arms around her waist. She said nothing as he hugged her from behind. He didn't, honestly, know what to say at that moment. He just didn't say anything, he wanted to be tender on her after what happened. He felt her slowly sink into his bulk and place herself against his warm body tenderly. He silently chuckled to himself. Leave it to his warmth to entice her. As far as he was concerned, he was a walking heater. He was glad he thought of it as it was chilly outside. The microwave beeped and Sakura, much to her dismay pushed the button, popping open the door and grabbing Naruto's pre-warmed breakfast. She held it in front of his nose, the blond eyes it for a while and sighed. He took it, hugged her and then walked back towards the table. Sakura warmed her food up after, and soon they were both eating a pro-cooked meal. Sakura disliked the taste of it, being from the microwave. The bacon was as flimsy and it could ever get, and the toast was soggy. The sausage links were okay, and so were the eggs. Sakura had herself a small glass of orange juice, while Naruto settled with milk. It was silent as they both ate, Sakura not saying a word as she pulled on the bacon, ripping it apart. Naruto had no problem with his breakfast. Hell it tasted pretty damn good for being micro-waved.

"Mmm! It's good!" Naruto complimented. Sakura said nothing, causing him to frown over it. She was silent as she meekly chewed her bacon, hands in her lap. Naruto stared at her and rested it head on his hand. After a few minutes of silence, Naruto had, had enough. "Okay, Sakura," He corrupted the silence with his stern voice! She looked up at him. "Look, you've gotta stop beating yourself up! I mean, jeez it's just a breakfast meal! I could've cared less about the damn breakfast! To me, you were priority number one Sakura! When I saw you… passed out, laying right on this floor everything dispersed from my mind and you were the focus, not this damn meal!" Naruto said with a sharpening edge in his voice. "Sakura… *Sigh* Just… stop blaming yourself for something you didn't do. I hate seeing you like this… I really do. Why do you beat on yourself so much?" He asked flailing his arms about. Sakura, minorly shocked by his sudden outburst, gave a grieving sigh.

"I'm… always the problem… that's why…" She said. Naruto stared at her, his orbs slightly widened. "Ever since I was young I had and was always the problem concerning everyone and everything around me… I still am too. I cry too much, I'm at a point to where everyone completely HATES me! And… I ruined our breakfast…" She explained. Naruto gave a growling sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Sakura, WHO. CARES!? Sakura you are who you are dammit! I'll love you either way, how ever you are and what ever you do! I don't care if you cry too much, or if you think everyone hated you, or if you even think you ruined the meal. You, DID-NOT!" He emphasized with his voice. He stood up and looked at her. Walked around the table and over to her side he grabbed her, almost clean, plate and sighed. "Who cared about what people think about you… I see you as someone who would like me even though how I've been acting right in front of you… why can't you see the same thing in me?" He asked. His cerulean orbs stared into the depths of her soul. She was mesmerized by them. He sighed and looked at her plate. "Are you done?" He asked. She nodded. Naruto walked into the kitchen, washing the dishes. The pinkette sat at the table, not making a squeak. As Naruto finished the dishes, he turned his head slightly. The rosette was cleaning up the table. He returned to washing the dishes. Once they had both finished, they reported upstairs to brush their teeth. Naruto groaned and scratched his head. Sakura knew what was wrong and searched, finding another, sterilized green and white tooth-brush. Naruto took it, and they brushed their teeth. As Naruto scrubbed from top to bottom he looked over to see Sakura. He worried about her endlessly at the moment… and he knew that he himself had gone through the exact same thing she had. Though, it only gave him a minor migraine that seemed to last for only about 3 minutes, how he saw Sakura… was completely shattering.

He spit and washed his mouth out with water, not wanting the think the subject further into the depths of his conscience that had already seeped through. He wiped his mouth on the towel hanging from the rack behind him and looked back at her. She seemed to have finished and it looked like she was a complete opposite of him how she washed her mouth out with water after she brushed, the wiped from the same towel. The blond saw her glum face. First it was happiness and glee and now she was feeling completely bad and out-of-it, all because she ruined the damn breakfast. The blond bit his bottom lip, trying to think of some way to cheer her up. Nothing came to his mind, although what did pop into his head at that moment was an option of treating her out tonight for some nice, hot cocoa and a good eating restaurant. He checked his back pocket, and took out his wallet. Upon opening it he seemed pretty good for a few more escorts, but that was it. He hated seeing her un-happy, and usually he thought he was the problem… Looking at her, seeing her guilty about ruining their breakfast, which he had no idea why it was such a drag to her, Naruto gave a short sigh. It was cold, and he was sure that maybe they could find something to do, perhaps Kishimaru might even brighten up Naruto's day a little bit. Hopefully his brother's smile with make Sakura smile which will make Naruto smile. It was worth a shot, and he couldn't complain either. The kid was a great person!

Looking over at the pinkette as they walked down the steps into her living room, Naruto watched her as she stared down at beige carpeted steps and her hand cast on the wooden rail. She thought she had it bad, he had been hated for being born. He felt what she was going through though, and he'd be there for her, always. Letting out a small huff they reached the bottom.

"It's cold Naruto… I think I have my father's jacket, you can wear that it you want." She said. Naruto let out a smile.

"Heh, eh, I'll be fine." He said with a broad grin and a wink. She looked at him and thought.

"Okay then, at least pull these down." She said.

"Huh?" He asked as she pulled down his sleeves until they could unravel no-more. He sighed with a groan. "Do I haf'ta have 'em down Sakura?" He asked with a disapproving groan.

"If you want to keep warm, yes. And button up this shirt here…" She said and buttoned up his snow white shirt. He sweat dropped and she stepped back. "Now, close the trench coat…" She said and began to button up his coat from the bottom up. Naruto crossed his arms over his chest and pouted. She finished buttoning his coat up and saw the amusing look on his face. Surprisingly she let out the cutest little giggle Naruto ever heard. Oddly, it enticed him and he opened his eyes in curiosity. If he had a tail, it would've wagged by now. Something about that giggle got his attention as he watched her put on her pink coat, scarf, mitten and ear muffs. She searched around in a drawer and pulled out a pair of thick gloves. She walked over to the blond. "Here, these will keep your hands warm." She said and handed him the pair of black gloves. Naruto looked at them and put them on. She smiled causing him to quirk an eyebrow.

"Why the sudden mood change huh?" He asked in suspicion. Sakura looked at him.

"I thought about what you said *Sigh* and you're right. It was just a breakfast. If it was something like, say, your heart that I ruined now I just could never forgive myself. Ever." She said with a gentle smile. Naruto stared at her in awe. Sakura gave a warm smile and took his hand. "Ready?" She asked, her eyes taking on a beautiful gleam. Naruto smiled widely and nodded.

"Sure am." He said with an enthusiastic tone. Sakura smiled wider at his happy-go-lucky attitude. Sakura grabbed her keys and locked the door behind them both. Grabbing Naruto's hand gently she tucked the keys away in her right coat pocket. The chilly air nipped her nose and made her shiver slightly. Feeling her reaction Naruto pulled her closer to him. She looked up and he smiled at her. "You won't get cold, trust me." He said with a handsome wink. She tinted a little bit, and she thought it was just the cold. Naruto chuckled. "Those blushes of yours are really funny Sakura. I say a compliment and your cheeks turn red!" He laughed! Sakura Looked down with a hidden smile.

"Don't ask me… you're the one who's the flirt… around here." She said. Naruto chuckled with his eyebrow cocked.

"At least I'm not the horny lil' school girl." He said with a humorous grin. Sakura immediately smacked the back of his head for it!

"I AM NOT!" She blurted as her face turned into a blossoming rose. Naruto rubbed the back of his head and groaned.

"Daaaamn… that hurt. Damn, where's that strength from?" Naruto pondered as he rubbed the back of his aching head. Sakura put on a pouting face, pushing upper lip to the sky.

"Serves you right for being a pervert then!" She said and crossed her arms over her chest. Naruto groaned disdainfully.

"I'm the perv… look who's talking…" He whispered, which then did not go un-heard as he found himself with a huge lump on his head a few seconds after. They walked around the sparkling white blanketed village for a while before Naruto wanted to go out and have some fun in the snow. Sakura agreed to this as they both made their way to the training grounds for some fun in the blanketing snow. As they arrived, Naruto running out into the fields, Sakura stopped and gave a cheeky grin. She scooped up a bit of snow in her hands and mashed it into a ball. She giggled as she watched Naruto prance around, falling over in the snow and rolling around in it… sort of like an animal. Sakura held the ball of snow behind her back and walked out into the grounds casually… more princess-like in a way. Naruto shoved his face into the snow and shook his head around, throwing the white powder left and right. Sakura nearly busted a gut and dropped the snowball! She kept herself from cracking herself up too hard and dropping her 'weapon'. She stood in front of the snow covered blond and giggled. This forced him to look up at her, which she then held the snow ball over his face and let go. It plopped on his face, completely covering it. Sakura laughed as he opened his cerulean eyes through the snow and blinked a few times, making her giddy about how cute it looked. Naruto crouched down and then, with speed and without Sakura noticing, he tackled her down into the snow! She let out a muffled yelp as they both rolled. Naruto pinned her down to the ground, uttering a sexy growl from his chords, before taking a handful of snow and smothering Sakura's face in it. Sakura shook her head, and once Naruto got down with his revenge, she looked at him, snow protruding from her pink hair and going down her scarf.

"You little…" She said, and retaliated by tackling him down, pinning him down face first and taking him by the head and shoving his face in snow! Naruto let out a muffled growl and forced himself up, with Sakura right on him! Sakura gasped as Naruto turned his head and grinned mischievously. He bucked his butt up in the air, causing her to fly off and land on her buttocks. Shaking his head of snow, the blond turned around and, animalistic ally, walked towards his 'prey'. Sakura rubbed her butt and looked at him. She stared at him as he slowly made his way toward her, as if he was a predator. Swerving, sticking a paw up and lowering his head, he grinned. Sakura just… stared at him. The blond moved forward… towards the pinkette sitting in the snow.

Sakura furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, her mouth slightly open. Not taking her eyes off of him she turned her head and stared at him. She had known for Naruto to be… somewhat of an… "animal" but she thought that was just because he was acting silly. But… now… she seemed to notice slight change in him. In intrigued her as he swayed slightly from left to right. She thought and something came to her mind, which made her smirk.

"*giggle* You're such an animal…" She said and playfully stuck her tongue out. Naruto's eyes widened and he dashed over to her and tackled her, rolling them nearly 20 feet! They stopped rolling with Sakura directly on top of him. The blond looked at her as she recovered from his tackle. Grunting at she opened her eyes and looked to see him staring directly at her and panting happily. She stared at him as he stopped panting and leaned forward and sniffed her, then snorted. Her emerald eyes gazed at him non-stop, like she was a zombie, mesmerized even. Naruto said nothing… and just stared… aimlessly at her, into her gleaming emerald eyes. He noticed her slight huffs of breath with his keen hearing. He leaned in, slightly entranced like a curious animal. There was a long silence between the two as they stared into ear other's eyes, entranced by one another. It was a slightly awkward… feeling that they both felt deep within themselves as they leaned, every so slowly closer to each other. Once nearly a mere 1 centimeter apart from each other's lips, Sakura broke the silence finally. "You're… animalistic attitude… where does it come from?" She whispered. Naruto felt cornered. He didn't want to tell her the truth, but he felt that lying to her wasn't going to do him any good either. He felt confused. Was telling her the truth irrational and consequential, or was it just honest and honorable thing to do? He didn't want to lie to her, nor did he want to tell her the truth. She patiently awaited for him to respond. Naruto was thinking… thinking deeply… deep and hard for an answer that wouldn't make her skeptical of his behaviors, but also an answer of which he was telling the truth, but in a sort of, encrypted fashion. Deeper and deeper into the depths of Naruto's psyche, where a sewer line ran and water was abundant.

Deep, within Naruto's conscious was a humongous 50' tall cage. Upon it, was a seal, and surrounding it all was a mass of red, flaming energy. Eerie blue and green wall candles lined the sides of the walls and the water from the sewer seemed to slightly flow inside the room as well as the cage. Inside the cage was pitch black, dark even… however… a strong demonic and malevolent presence lifted the purity of the air and polluted it. Deep, strong and harsh breathing came from inside the cage, and finally… a deep, demonic growl emanated from the depths of the darkness, rattling the cage. Bones from inside the room toppled. A skull rolled in front of the cage and stared blankly at what was secretly staring back. Slowly, two humongous blood-red piercing orbs appeared out of nowhere! They scanned the area and looked around, seeming to sense a presence. Looking down they stared.

"…well… it seems like she's skeptical of you now… Why don't you just tell her the truth? Just let it alll out, and perhaps, if what I know is true, she'll accept you into her life and not fear you… Kit." A demonic and very deep voice echoed from the depths of the cage. Naruto stood there… staring at the 2 humongous eyes staring back.

"Says you… We both may be connected inside and out, but one thing I'll have you know is that I'll never take one of your ideas. I just want to live a normal life… but I can't… not with a demon like you sitting in here… polluting everything…" Naruto said. The eyes leered at him and a humongous form appeared. Engulfed in red energy that lined the whole room itself.

"Well, I'm not the one in particular who wanted to be sealed within a worthless human being like you. I'm am a great King and I deserve better than this rat-heap you call a head. I want freedom so that I can live my eternal years again. But sealed within you is just bullshit!" The demonic presence roared! The form finally appeared, and inside the cage, was a massive fox with 9 tails eerily swaying from one side to another in a menacing manner. Naruto glared at the fox.

"Just because you're the mighty demon king doesn't mean jack-shit. I know you've been spying on Sakura and me. After all, you always like to get into my business, eh, Kyuubi?" Naruto asked. The demon fox known as Kyuubi stared at him. Scoffing at the young man's words he seemed not phased by Naruto's bravery.

"If it wasn't for me, you would have died by now boy." Kyuubi said with a snarl. Naruto leered at the fox, sadly the statement made by the fox was correct.

"But you made me into a damn monster!" Naruto hissed! Kyuubi grinned.

"That is just a bonus, Kit. The other part is when you get some you'll feel thirsty for more and more!" Kyuubi said with a malicious grin causing the veins in his eyes to become visible. Naruto stared at him, a bit in shock!

"You mean… I'll… I'll most likely… hurt Sakura?" Naruto stuttered. Kyuubi grinned and looked up to the side innocently.

"Maybe a few cuts and scrapes here and there… a nip or two… heeheeheeheehee…" The fox said and added a menacing chuckle. Naruto didn't like it too well and stared at the fox and gritted his teeth. The fox looked at him and smirked. The black line creasing his mouth swerved evilly. "Just make up a small white-lie Kit. Tell her that it's because, since she finds it cute, you do it for her. If she says you do it too well and brings up that "But you did it before I even thought it was cute" excuse than just tell her straight up, that you like to act like an idiot because you have whiskers. But if you have the balls, you'll tell her it's because you have an awesome, young and sexy, Demon King dwelling within your spirit." The fox said with a wink, and before Naruto could say something, he was ejected from his mind!

Reality…

Naruto came to his senses and shook his head. Sakura was staring at him, becoming more worried by the moment. He looked at her and cleared his throat.

"Uh, sorry about that Sakura. Ehehehe… anyway, to… umm… answer your question… it's because… you think it's cute and that's why I do it! Act… like an animal that is… I mean… look at my… *stale broad grin* cute wittle whiskers…" He said with a broad grin that was as stale a bread. Sakura stared at him.

"O…kay then… well, whatever you say Naruto." Sakura said. The blond mentally sighed in relief that she bought it.

"Although, you did get a bit rough… though it was fun.. It was strange." Sakura added. Naruto's eyes turned white and he froze and gulped. "Well, you are a guy… oh well…" She said. Naruto let out a sigh of relief. Sakura looked at him and turned her head sideways. "Are you okay Naruto?" She asked. The blond stared at her and sweat dropped with a smile.

"Y-Yeah Sakura… I am." He answered. She smiled back reluctantly.

"Oh, look, Kishimaru!" Sakura said and pointed. Naruto turned his head and saw the boy running towards them.

"Big brother! Big brother!" He shouted as he panted.

"Squirt! What's wrong, you're out of breath! Something wrong?" Naruto asked and got up, helping Sakura with him. Kishimaru caught his breath and looked at Naruto with pleading sapphire eyes.

"C'mon, we need to talk private for a sec. You don't mind, right Sakura?" Kishimaru asked in an antsy tone! Sakura shook her head. As soon as she complied Kishimaru dragged Naruto into the bushes behind a tree. Naruto sighed and looked down.

"Okay, what's going on?" He asked crossing his arms over his chest. Kishimaru frantically looked around and look up.

"You know that guy that we had… umm… Y'know… locked up?" He asked. Naruto's scowled and nodded.

"What about 'im?" Naruto asked with a tint of venom stinging in his voice.

"He's… gone… he's gone he somehow got away and I think Sakura's in danger because I found this note!" Kishimaru whispered hysterically and pulled a thin note out from his pocket. Naruto took it and opened it. Going over it his eyes widened. He slowly crinkled the note and gritted his teeth. Kishimaru stared at him. Naruto looked at the small boy.

"Fine then… let him go… let him heal. I'll rip him apart later." He said. He looked at Sakura who was rolling snowballs in the white blanket below her. "Anything else?" He asked looking back at Kishimaru. The boy thought and then it came to him.

"I don't think he escaped by himself… big brother, the chains I put on him were made from chakra, my demon chakra. Whoever got out of them," He said with a gulp. "must be someone powerful… very powerful…" He said. Naruto's eyes widened in shock in disbelief! Naruto realized, then, at that moment that they were no longer safe… He looked at Sakura and Kishimaru. He felt, in the depths of his stomach, something terrifying growing. Today, was sure to be… eventful… especially, from what took place yesterday at the school…
