Dancing under the stars
23rd of December and everything have begun to brighten up.
Ino, Tenten and Hinata have gone over to Sakura's apartment early that day.
"Alright, let see what we got…" Ino grinned, "Hmm…"
She rampaged Sakura's closet. Throwing cloths on the floor.
"Girl, do you have anything sexy beside these child like cloths?" Ino asked.
Sakura glared at her, "Well, excuse me for not having much of a life…"
Tenten and Hinata giggled.
"You have a date tonight and you got nothing to wear," Ino started with a mischievous grin on her face, "It means only one thing ladies!"
"Shopping!" Tenten and Hinata chorused.
Sakura sighed deeply, 'How do I know that she was going to say that?'
And then it was decided; they were going to go shopping.
-
"You want me to what?" Iruka stared at him question, "Are you serious?"
Kakashi grinned under his mask, "Yup!"
"Are you totally sure about this," Iruka started, "For what I've hear to far, I find this disturbing… and wrong"
Kakashi gave him a playful glare, "Come on now, how can you say that to me?"
The scarred chuunin again eyed him for the 5th time that day. He was shocked to learn that Kakashi have shown some interest on a certain woman, which was also, his former student.
Iruka sighed, "Whatever flows your boat I guess… but Kakashi…"
This time Iruka gave him the most dangerous look, "If you hurt her…"
Kakashi gave him a soft smile, "I won't do such a thing…"
-
"OH MY GOSH!" Ino squealed, "This top is just too cute to past! I'm getting it!"
"Oh, look at this one!" Tenten bit her lower lip, "I can't resist!"
Sakura and Hinata just watched their two friends giggled and squealed over some piece of cloth but the pink haired kunoichi have seen her short black haired friend eyeing a certain dress.
Sakura smiled, "Hinata, if you want to check out that dress… Go ahead, don't let me stop you…"
Hinata blushed, "B-but… I-I… W-well, y-you see, I… umm… I-I just like to…"
"IwanttolookmybestwhenNarutogetsbackfromhismission!"
Hinata said quickly.
Sakura was taken back but didn't get everything the girl has said made any sense, "Come again?"
Hinata took a few deep breath before, "I want to look my best when Naruto gets back from his mission…"
"Whenever that maybe…"
Sakura listened and couldn't help but press a smile on her face, "Aw, Hinata! Go try on that dress, I bet it will look grand on you!"
Hinata meekly nodded and left.
Sakura kept the smile on her face, turning to her other friends who still giggled and crazy over to the other side of the store.
'Well, I guess I'm on my own on this one…' Sakura said as she walked over some racks of cloths, 'Hmm… Dress? Two piece or full length?"
She ran her delicate fingers over the fabrics of clothing and found some few interesting cloths.
'It won't hurt if I try them on…' She said.
Sakura have gathered a good number of cloths and walked over to the dressing room, which was beside Hinata.
"Hinata? How are you doing?" Sakura called out, "You ok?"
There was no answer for a moment or two and then.
"I-I'm g-getting this d-dress, Sakura…" Hinata said, "It's cute…"
"Really? That's good…" Sakura smiled as she shed off her clothing and put on some of the cloths she picked, "I'm trying on some various things, well you help me pick?"
"Sure, let me finish dressing up and I'll stand outside for you!" Hinata answered.
"Thanks Hinata, you're a true pal!" Sakura giggled.
-
"Did you get that?" Iruka asked, "It wasn't that hard was it?"
Kakashi sighed as he nodded, "No, it wasn't but…"
"But?" Iruka glanced at him.
"Is there an easier way of doing this without taken so much time?" Kakashi rub the back of his head, "It's too long…"
Iruka glared at him, "If you rush the process, it wouldn't turn out right! You just have to be patient…"
Kakashi sighed sadly as he continued to watch the scarred man before him.
"Now," Iruka began, "You take this and put it there when you have finished with this other one… after that, you can leave it there for a while, of let say about 10mins or so…"
The silver haired eyed each one and taken notes at the same time.
He has to admit, it wasn't difficult at all. It was just time consuming.
"Afterwards, you have to place it here and each have to stick together until it stays there…" Iruka continued, "So, when you're done… You won't have a problem about having it fall apart on you…"
"Iruka, is that one item necessary?" Kakashi eyed one certain item, "She doesn't like those…"
"Not a problem, you can use anything…" Iruka said, "That's just a secondary piece but not important at all…"
"That's good," Kakashi smiled, "Thanks for all your help Iruka…"
Iruka grinned, "Don't blow it Kakashi, it seem to me… That's your finally got caught…"
Kakashi chuckled as he turned to leave, "… so it seems"
-
Sakura giggled as she shown the other girls the outfits she have picked. With the help of her friends, she might get through the day.
"Oh, that top is perfect!"
"You should get that one!"
"You defiantly need to have a better match for that outfit, Sakura!"
"You look hot and sexy! You're going to heat up the man!"
And a few more comments that the girls have said but the shopping didn't stop there.
"The Simple Things"
Its the simple things time to put the lights up

(yeah, yeah, yeah, oh the simple things)
It was simple, but they enjoyed it. They were very much alive, being together. Just the four of them, girls, and no worries but just having fun.
Hearing all the sleigh bells opening Christmas cards
Gingerbread cookies Rudolph cant be far
Getting cold outside staying warm by the fire place
Children laughing Santa Claus is on his way
Time for Christmas all of us together never wanna miss it

Anyone who looked his or her way at them smiled and laugh at how carefree, four elite female jounin's can be on the holidays.

They even passed there fellow teammates and friends who just watched them with adoring smiles or just enjoyed how they relaxed and at ease as they wondered around.
"It's good to see them smile and laughing like this," Shikamaru said, "Don't you think?"
Neji and Shino nodded as Kiba and Choji grinned.
Think about all of the joy it brings its easy to see now
That what its all about its the simple things oh oh yeah

Shizune was talking to a caretaker as she noticed the four girls chattered happily with each other. Like they have no worries or troubles.
The woman smiled, 'They're in good spirit… that's good!'
Its the simple things like having all my friends here we can celebrate together
Its the simple things like knowing Christmas is always on time and this year is even better
The girls arrived at Sakura's apartment at 5:30p.m.
"You sure you don't need anything?" Ino asked, "If you need us, you know where to find us!"
Sakura laughed, "I know, Ino! If I need anything, I'll give you a call or rush on over!"
Ino grinned, "Relax and don't forget to breath!"
"You don't want to pass out during you date!"
"Also, if he got anything to say," Tenten pointed out, "You have to try and listen even if it is boring…"
Hinata just smiled and nodded.
"Anyway, we have to get ready for our dates as well!" Ino waved, "We see you around later!"
"Bye Sakura! Good luck!" Tenten waved and walked away with Ino.
Hinata stayed behind and waited until the girls were out of hearing distant before turning to face Sakura.
"Sakura, I don't know Kakashi very well like you do but," It was rare for Hinata to say words without stuttering or being embarrass, "I have belief that you two have some in common and something about you two have a glow that is warm and sweet…"
Sakura blinked, she never expected it from Hinata to say those words.
"What do you mean Hinata?"
Hinata smiled, "I've seen the two of you together sometimes, just to talk or catch up on old times…"
"You two bring out some warm and a very soft glow when you two are together," Hinata blushed, "It's romantic…"
Biting her lower lip, Sakura couldn't figure out what her friend was trying to say.
"Anyway, just pay attention to your heart tonight and you'll see…" Hinata said, "Believe in your self and listen to your heart!"
"Good luck Sakura!" Hinata wave but before leaving she grinned, "I'll go for that white dress that you've picked out, he will like it very much!"
Then she was gone, running toward the other girls who waited for her patiently. Leaving a confused pink kunoichi.
'What was that about…?' Sakura thought, 'Listen to my heart…'
She then got the point; Sakura began to laugh out loud.
'How cute,' Sakura began, 'Oh but Hinata… my heart still can't decide… not yet anyway…'
'We will see…'
Then she remembers the kiss Kakashi have given her, she blushed.
'Sweet and romantic…' She said, 'Is Kakashi capable of such things?'
'I mean, his kiss was gentle and soft but…'
Her thought was interrupted by the sound of someone calling her name.
"Sakura!"
Sakura turned, "Oh! Shizune!"
Shizune came toward her with a smile.
"How are you? Enjoying your vacation?" the woman asked.
"Yes, I am…" Sakura answered with a smile, "What about you?"
"So and so, nothing much," Shizune sighed, "I'm helping Tsunade-sama finishing up for the party tonight…"
Sakura blinked, "Party?"
"Oh, that's right! She decided to have a party, yesterday for today!" Shizune looked annoyed, "Anyway, she's making an announcement soon about it… You'll hear it, don't worry!"
"I got to get back," Shizune wave, "I'll you later, Sakura!"
With that, the woman left.
'A party?' Sakura thought, 'I wonder if Kakashi is taken me there…'
She went inside her apartment and up to her room.
'Hmm… 6p.m…' Sakura looked at the clock on her bedside table, '1 hr to go…'
She smiled, 'Better get ready now…'
-
Kakashi did make an effort as he promised.
He was dressed in black long sleeve button shirt that was tucked neatly under his black dress pants making him look mysterious and fit.
His hair spiked up and without his usual attire headband, etc… but his mask was present damn that man…
'Everything is set…' He said to himself.
He got to admit, he was a bit nervous. Taken a glance of the clock next to the bookshelf, it was already 6:45.
'15mins left…' Kakashi rubbed his chin, 'Hmm… plenty of time left and I can't disappoint her now, can I?'
He grinned under his mask as he sat down on his favorite chair and started to read his favorite book in the world.
A/U: Have any of you notice that this is the first time I have Kakashi read his favorite book? Does anyone care? I bet you do… On with the story!
-
She has been looking over her self for the past 25mins on the mirror.
'Breath Sakura, breath!' She told her self, 'Your getting too excited about this date than you suppose to…'
'It's just a date with Kakashi and beside, you've been alone with him for more than one occasion!'
Sakura have curled her hair and pinned it up with a single butterfly pin, which made her hair a little wave and neatly flow some loose hair down her back.
Yes, she made an effort as well.
'Hey, he did say that he was going to make an effort…' Sakura felt her face heated, 'I'm just doing the same, right?'
'HELL YES WE ARE!'
The answer has made her almost jumped out of her skin.
'What the hell! Did you have to scream?' Sakura was annoyed as she put on some eyeliner, '…what are you doing anyway, I'm doing fine without you'
'Right now…' her inner self-taunt, 'You know where to find me!'
Her conscious was too damn happy about all this and Sakura knew why.
'Well, I can't blame her for being excited, really… It's been such a long time to be actually being out on a date without being rejected…'
She chuckled at the memory of Sasuke, 'How time passed…'
-
It was 7pm sharp.
Fireworks have been set off and music can be heard through out the village, which got everyone's attention.
"Ladies and Gents," It was the Hokage's voice echo to the speaker, "To celebrate this fine holiday, I have set up a party for everyone on the Town Center!"
"Food is serve and please, come and join us for the celebration!"
With that said, there was a loud cheering crowed could be heard.
-
Sakura couldn't help but laugh at this and she was holding her stomach.
'Oh, that's sweet and hilarious, no wonder Shizune is annoyed!'
It was about 7:07 when her doorbell rang.
'Hmm, 7mins late…'
She walked down the stair with, "I'm coming! Hold on!"
When she has reached the door, she looked through her window and found something interesting. She opened the front door.
"My don't we look stunning?" Sakura teased with a grin on her face, "7mins late, not bad, but I'm surprised at you all the same…"
Kakashi grinned under his mask, "Oh? So you approve?"
Sakura giggled, "Yes, yes… I approve!"
"Well then," Kakashi eyed her, "You look astonishing and radiant yourself…"
With that Sakura blushed.
Kakashi took the opportunity to totally check the woman before him.
She was wearing a white long sleeve v-neck blouse that fit her body like a glove with a matching white ankle length skirt that has jasmine flower imprint on the bottom.
"Thank you, Kakashi…" Sakura shyly said, "Let me get my coat and we can get going… Come on in while you wait!"
She was moved aside to let him in and closed the door behind him.
"I won't take long!" Sakura said as she left for the upper level.
Kakashi have noticed the changed in the room. It was a bit more decorated and homey, he smiled.
'She made effort…' He said.
A few minute later, Sakura have appeared again wearing a long semi fuzzy white coat and a small matching purse. Making her look innocent and sweet.
"Ready to go?" Sakura asked.
Kakashi nodded, "Ready when you are!"
Sakura smiled as she led him to the door.
'It's a lot harder than to look at her in both ways when she dressed like that but it's a lot better than any other colors,' Kakashi thought, 'She blends with the season…'
It was snowing but not heavy, it was just perfect.
"Where are we going?" Sakura asked.
Kakashi hid a smile on this, "You'll see…"
Sakura nodded and remain quite, enjoying the silence beside him.
They have walked for a good 10mins inside the forest and found themselves away from the party that was growing.
'Hmm… I wonder where he could be taken me…' Sakura began.
Just then, the sound of waterfall came to her ears.
They came to the clearing and found themselves on the outskirt of the waterfall. The hill was a 10ft dropped and it wasn't so bad but what caught Sakura's attention wasn't the waterfall.
But a small table for two under a white fixed tent with white-lit candles set before her just 7ft away from the streaming water.
"Oh my…" Sakura was shocked.
"Do you like it?" Kakashi asked.
Not trusting her words, Sakura nodded.
Kakashi smiled under his masked as he pulled a chair out to let her seat.
"Please, take a seat…" Kakashi offered, which the girl accepted.
Once seated, Kakashi have left her for 3mins and returned with 4 trays of food. Seafood fried rice, chicken with garlic and 2 bowl of steaming hot soup.
"Fascinating," Sakura began, "You can be romantic as well, learned it from you book?"
"Book 3, chapter 6 when a woman decided to give the man who have shown her affection a chance," Kakashi answered, "He treated her like a Queen… and they have this wonderful moment in the forest…"
"Kakashi! I did NOT want you to tell me THAT!" Sakura turned red as she cut him off, "Gezz, don't give me those mental images!"
Kakashi laughed at this, "Ok, ok… but you asked"
Sakura pout, "Let's start eating and enjoy ourselves, this looks delicious!"
The masked man just chuckled, "Fine, fine…"
It was a few minutes later after they begun to eat. Sakura was very surprise of the taste.
"Wow Kakashi!" Sakura beamed at him, "Where did you learn how to cook like this?"
Kakashi laughed, "I have a very reliable sources… but I won't give that away"
Sakura smirked and continued to eat.
It was romantic, she have to admit. He really did make an effort on this one but Sakura wasn't to give him much credit just yet, the date wasn't over.
The stream was clam and relaxing, enjoyable and the moment was right and with the snow falling, it was perfect.
"How about we join the celebration?" Kakashi suggested, "That way, it will be more exciting?"
"That sounds like a great idea…" Sakura agreed.
After dinner, Sakura was wondering who would clean up the tent, table and chairs. But Kakashi have asked her not worry; it will be gone before morning.
The pink haired girl nodded and walked beside him towards the town.
-
The village party was on full swing by the time Sakura and Kakashi have showed up. People were dancing around the bon fire and the music filled the whole area.
It was likely that about dozen of ninja's have joined the celebration.
"Who is guarding the border and stations?" Sakura asked Kakashi.
"They are being switched every 2hrs and by the looks of this, the party is going to be an all night celebration…" Kakashi said.
"Dance with me?"
Sakura looked up to him with a smile on her face.
"I love to…"
Kakashi then took her hand and gentle ushered her towards the crowed of dancing couples.
They have met; Shikamaru with Ino, Neji with Tenten while Hinata danced with Shino, Kiba and Lee.
"Oh, look at them!" Ino whispered to Shikamaru, "They look cute together!"
Shikamaru turned his head at the couple, "Hmm… That's a rare sight…"
Sakura and Kakashi danced along with the crowed and they laugh as they went around the fire.
The stars were glittering while the snowfall but everything was perfect but most of all.
Kakashi was indescribable tonight.
'His being a perfect and wonderful date…' Sakura thought, 'Yeah, he earned that much credit…'
By the time they have left the party it was still lively but the two have decided to take a walk in the park.
Sakura turned to Kakashi, "I have a great time and it was a first from a very long time,"
"Thank you Kakashi…"
Kakashi eyed her and smiled, "Your very welcome…"
"I'm glad you enjoyed it, Sakura…"
After that, they were silent once more. They have walked for quite sometime and then Sakura have gotten tired from all the excitement.
Kakashi have walked her home to her apartment, they could still hear the music and cheer from the celebration.
"I wonder how they'll react tomorrow…" Sakura giggled, "I saw Asuma and Gai drink like they've never drank before…"
"Oh that, yes…" Kakashi laugh, "Gai challenged Asuma to a drinking contest which was a good thing for me…"
Sakura titled her head, "Why is that?"
Kakashi grinned and took a step closer to her, "Because I was preoccupied with a lovely woman…"
Sakura blushed at this and wasn't sure how to respond but she knew she got to do or say something.
But she didn't trust her voice, instead, she took the last few step towards him and placed her lips on his.
The man was taken back but the girl didn't steer. He then closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around her waist, he kissed her deeper.
The snow continued to fall.
The villagers are in high spirit.
By the time the two couple pulled apart, it was the 24th of December.
"Sakura, think about this…" Kakashi's voice was husky, "We won't meet today but I would like to hear you answer by Christmas day…"
"What answer Kakashi?" Sakura's voice was no excuse either.
Kakashi pressed his lips against her again then pulled away slowly, "… be mine?"
Sakura gasped but her eyes didn't show fear but surprised, she nodded.
"I'll give you an answer then Kakashi," She said, "Be here on Christmas morning for breakfast?"
Kakashi smiled, "What time?"
"8a.m…" She said.
"I won't be late," He said, "For you, I won't be late…"
By the time they said goodbye and gotten into bed. Neither felt upset or regret, but hope, happiness and most of all…
Love…
