Chapter 10: Returing
-
Naruto, Ino, Tenten, Neji, Kiba, Hinata, Choji, Shino, and Shikamaru were waiting at the gates for Lee and Sakura to return. Ino had her arms crossed and was tapping her foot. She was very annoyed. Shikamaru rolled his eyes at Ino. He placed a hand on her shoulder. She looked at him.
"Calm down. They'll come when they come," he said.
"But what if something bad happened to them? What if Sakura didn't find Lee?" Ino asked.
"Don't worry about that," Naruto said, making everyone look at him.
"Why not?" Kiba asked.
"Because, I uh ... sort of found them," he said.
Ino cracked her knuckles. She towered over him, making him cower.
"And you decided not to bring them back?" Ino asked angrily.
"Well, Sakura and Lee needed some time alone," he answered, "together."
"Yeah, and since she's with Lee, she'll be fine," Tenten said.
"Somebody's coming," Hinata said, catching everyone's attention.
Everyone looked to see two figures coming their way. Everyone took a closer look at the figures.
"Who's coming?" Choji asked.
"I ... it looks like," Hinata began. "Yes, yes it ... it is. It's them."
"You mean, Lee and Sakura?" Ino asked.
Hinata nodded. Tenten grinned.
"Told ya you didn't need to worry," Tenten said.
Sakura still had her head on his shoulder and they still locked arms. Sadily, before they could reach the gate, Lee fell to the ground.
"Oh no, Lee," Sakura said, kneeling down beside him.
"What's wrong with them?" Shikamaru asked.
"I don't know, but we should find out," Naruto said, running to Lee and Sakura.
The others followed him. They stopped about a few feet from the the two. Sakura was staring at his back, which was now bloody. How come she didn't notice it before? Small tears appeared in her eyes. She should have noticed earlier.
"Sakura?" Naruto asked, his voice a little shakly.
She looked up at him and he could see the tears slowly forming in her eyes.
"What happened?" Neji asked.
"I'll explain on the way to the hospital," Sakura said.
Naruto nodded and put Lee on his back. Then, the young ninjas took off to the hospital. Sakura forgot to tell them what happened, but everyone forgot. They ran to the front desk, making the lady at the desk freak. She then sent a glare at the group, well, mostly Naruto who was breathing a little hard.
"Young man, I have told you a hundred times to not run through a hospital. You could have hurt someone," the nurse scowlded.
Naruto rolled his eyes. Did she not see Lee? He stopped her before she went on.
"Listen, can you help my friend or not?" Naruto asked madly.
The nurse saw Lee and her eyes widened.
"I'll get a doctor," she said.
"No need for that Suzy, I'll take care of him," Tsunade said.
Naruto and the other ninjas followed Tsunade into an open room. Naruto placed Lee on the bed on his stomach. Tsunade looked at the bloody bandages. She slowly took them off and stared at his open gash. It still bleeded. She made her hands glow green then placed them on his open gash. He screamed out in pain. Sakura grabbed his hand, hoping to help him. It did help, a little. When the gash fully closed, Tsunade took her hands off his back and turned to Sakura, who had her eyes on Lee.
"Sakura, I'm trusting you to bandage him up," Tsunade said, ready to leave.
She stopped at the door and looked back at Sakura.
"Oh, and don't stay to long," Tsunade said, leaving.
Sakura blushed but grabbed a roll of bandages. She started bandaging his body up.
"So Sakura, how did Lee get that gash?" Ino asked.
Sakura winced.
"He got it from Sasuke," Sakura replied.
"Why did you guys take so long to get her?" Shikamaru asked.
"We had to fight Sasuke," Sakura replied. "That creep tried to kill me and Lee, but Lee killed him before he got the chance."
Everyone's eyes were wide. Sakura finished bandaging Lee and turned him on his back, then held his hand again. Nobody knew how long he must have been asleep, but Sakura guessed for only a couple minutes. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at a smiling Sakura.
"Sa ... Sakura. Where ... where are we?" he asked, seeing his friends.
"We're at Konoha's hospital. We brought you here after you collapsed," Sakura said, helping him sit up.
She then hugged him. He hugged her back with a smile. He stroked her hair as she began to cry. Everyone looked at each other and nodded. They walked out of his room, leaving Lee and Sakura. Sakura continued to lightly cry as Lee comforted her.
"Sakura, why are you crying?" he asked.
"Because I was afraid I had lost you," she said.
"I do not die so easily," he said.
Sakura stopped crying and looked up at him. She smiled when he saw him smiling. Lee leaned down and kissed her on her lips. She kissed back in happiness. Outside the door, Ino and Tenten were looking in. They had opened the door a little to see them. They were smiling.
"Ino," a voice said.
"Tenten," another voice said.
Both girls jumped to see Shikamaru and Neji. They had eyebrows raised. The two girls glared at the two boys.
"Don't scare us like that!" Ino said.
Neji rolled his eyes.
"Whatever. Now, come on, leave them alone," Neji said, walking away.
Ino and Tenten sighed and followed them. Inside, Sakura was laying on Lee's stomach. Yeah, as they were kissing, Sakura got on top of him. She was smiling with her eyes closed. Lee was smiling too as he stroked her hair.
"I'm glad you're alright Lee," she said.
Lee smiled.
"I love you Sakura flower," Lee said.
"I love you too Lee," she said.
She started to giggle a little. Lee stared at the girl on his chest.
"What is so funny Sakura?" Lee asked with a questioning look.
"Tsunade's going to have my head when she sees me here with you like this," Sakura said, looking at Lee.
Lee giggled a little too. He then leaned in a kissed her.
"You won't leave, right?" Sakura asked.
"Never," he said, as Sakura kissed him.
