D/C: I don't own any part of Naruto

Just a Normal Day

Many weeks had passed since the fight, and Naoko could not be located. The strange thing was that the entire Dark ninja village had disappeared. Travelers and officials of the ninja villages had arrived to confront the village on offensive behavior to the Godaime of Konoha and her subordinates, but had found instead, a massive smoking hole.

Meanwhile, Sakura and Sasuke had much improved, fully recovered now. They went back to training, getting back in shape after so long a hospital stay. Finished at early noon, they walked back through the parks to go home and freshen up. Sakura no longer lived at her parents' house, instead she lived at Tsunade's place, with her own room and what not, as Tsunade's assistant. Shizune had left to join another Konoha team, and Tsunade liked having a helper around.

They walked through the parks, laughing and sometimes staying a while to talk with people and friends they knew. Hinata sat with some of her family, smiling shyly and talking with Kiba. Kiba's crush on Hinata was cute, but the mention of Naruto still left her quietly stammering for minutes. They passed Shikamaru but left him alone because Temari was visiting (again).

"Oh, shoot. Hurry, Sasuke, we're having dinner at Yuzuru-san and Kirari-san's place tonight." Sakura clapped a hand to her forehead, and practically picked up Sasuke as she set off at a dead run to his house. They arrived at his large house, and Sasuke stumbled about, reeling in dizziness while Sakura stood, breathing lightly, and began to freak out.

"Tsunade's coming too, oh, I am so dead. She's going to kill me if I'm late and I still have to run home and shower and change and ohh." She jumped about. Sasuke, while Sakura was flailing about, had picked up a package on his doorstep.

"Godaime sent a package, I think it has your clothes."

"Really?! I'm saved!" Sakura shrieked. Sasuke took her hand and opened the door.

"Come on, you can use one of the bathrooms."

Inside his house, Sakura went to one of the many empty rooms, while Sasuke went to his bathroom. She was downstairs, unfolding the dress she was to wear to dinner tonight, damp hair hanging over a tanktop and shorts. Sasuke's arms came under hers and around her stomach, drawing her close to him. "Yum… your shampoo smells good."

Sakura made a face at him. "Sasuke, this is your shampoo."

"Whatever. Eh? What's that?" he picked up a note that had fallen out of the package. His cheeks suddenly burned a bright red, and he let go of Sakura and made towards the trashcan.

"Hey now." Sakura grabbed the back of his shirt and pulled him back. "Let me see that."

"You really don't want to."

"Tsunade gave me a note, I have to read it."

"Trust me, Flower, you don't want to read this."

"Give it to me, little boy!"

"Wha-?! You did not-"

"Give me the stupid note." She snatched it, as Sasuke gave his cynical little smirk. "You have got to be kidding me." Sakura said with a tone of desperation, as her eyes turned black in embarrassment.

"Told you."

Sakura rolled her eyes. "Yes, Sasuke, you win."

"I get a kiss as a prize."

Sakura turned the note into a frog. "Kiss that, and make it into a prince."

"Why would I want to save a stupid prince?"

"Would you rather save a pretty little pinhead of princess? Another girl?"

"Hey that's not fair." Sasuke complained. "What, and you want a prince?"

"The prince would give me notes that my teacher sent me."

"I ended up letting you read it, so I did give it to you, which means I'm a prince."

"I had to take it from you."

"Just give me a kiss, dammit." Sasuke said, grabbing Sakura and kissing her. Sakura smiled and kissed him on the nose again.

"You're funny. Come on, let's go." She said, and the frog turned back into the piece of paper as they went out the door.

What did the note say?

Sakura, I sent the clothes over knowing you wouldn't make it home in time to change after practice, so instead you'd run over to Uchiha's house, no wait, your house- ha! Get it? Don't let the hormonal boy into the room when you're changing and showering. Gosh, I feel like a mother. I'm a good mother. Anyways, why not? Because, Sasuke, your service is not needed to help her in and out of her clothes. And right about now I have successfully made your faces explode in "What the hell?!"-s. See you later, Tsunade
