Alright, here it is. The last chapter of Heart Shaped Cloud. Thanks to all the reviewers and I hope this chapter doesn't disappoint you.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto! How many times do I have to say it!? Gosh!


Look Up


"What the-" There, right in front of her, was a small, shining lake. Fireflies buzzed around it, as the crickets chirped a melodious tune as if it was planned. The lake pulsed gently, as the light from the moon above made the lake sparkle beautifully. Sakura just stood in awe, as stared at the beauty in front of her.

"Naruto." She turned towards the man beside her, coming face to face with the man who brought her here. He had this gleam in his eye that told her that something was going to happen, something concerning him and her.

"How did you find this place?" She asked, wondering how he could have found something as glamorous as this without her knowing about it.

"Being the Hokage does have its benefits." He replied with a smile that made her heart melt.

"It's beautiful." She said, looking around to observe more of her surroundings. The red-orange trees around them rustled along with the gentle breeze of the wind, losing their colorful leaves to dance along the breeze, only to land gently on the water.

"Not as beautiful as you." She turned towards Naruto, a blush decorating her pretty face. She was stunned, even though he's said that many times to her, she couldn't help but feel shocked and appreciative at the same time.

Their eyes met, locked in an unbreakable gaze between blue and green. Their eyes shined in the night, searching each other's feelings. After a while, Naruto broke the silence with his voice.

"Sakura-chan," He said, eyes still locked onto her's. Taking her hands into his, he noticed how soft her hands were and couldn't help but shiver at her touch. Sakura felt the same, stunned yet knew that this is what they both wanted, no, needed to happen. She was just lucky he was the one to move.

"I-" His voice was interrupted when a puff of smoke revealed an ANBU with long, dark blue hair. Her face was covered with a mask, shielding the face of the person that dared to interrupt their special moment.

Sakura looked towards the ANBU, clear annoyance in her eyes. Breaking from his grasp, she turned towards disrupting ninja.

"Hoka-" Her soft, feminine voice spoke before getting brutally interrupted. A hard fist hit the ninja, uppercutting the unsuspecting person on the chin, making her fly through the air at an alarming speed. Coming out from her blind fury, she blinked twice before turning around to face Naruto, who was beyond shocked, yet thankful for that.

"So what were you gonna say?" She said as both of them resumed the position they were in before that ANBU ninja had the nerve to disrupt their special moment.

Deep in the forest, a badly beaten ninja laid groaning in pain. A small whimper could be heard as the shattered pieces of her mask lay beside her. That punch from Sakura sure did a job on her jaw and now it was aching. She couldn't help but shed a single tear, not from physical pain, but in emotional pain.

"What was I thinking? I can't believe I was doing this." She started to mentally scold herself, being the soft, rational person that she is. Her crystal white eyes stared at the clouds above her, noticing a heart shaped cloud slowly drifting away from her towards some other direction.

"How could I do such a thing? I know you can't hear me, but I'm sorry. Be good to him, Sakura. Give him the love he deserves, the love that I couldn't give him. I hope you guys have a wonderful life together, and just know that I'll always love you, Naruto-kun."

She smiled, despite the pain from moving her jaw, knowing that if Naruto would be happy, so would she.

Back to the blond haired Hokage and the pink haired medic, they were holding hands, facing each other with their bodies almost touching. Their faces were mere inches apart as the quiet sounds of nature filled the air.

"Sakura-chan," he began, "Ever since I first saw you, I couldn't help but think that she was the prettiest girl I've ever seen. Although I never had a lucky life up until then, I considered that luck took my side when they paired me up with you on our Genin team. Over the years, I've always felt this feeling towards you that was different from any body else."

Sakura's hope raised a little, as her heart felt like it was ready to burst. This was it, the next step towards their relationship with each other. Her hope had raised and she was ready to take this opportunity, determined not to give into doubt.

"I didn't know what this feeling was, but I knew whatever it was, it was strong and for you. I really like you, Sakura-chan, and it's possible that I...I love you."

Like a magnetic attraction towards her, he leaned closer, shutting his eyes closed. Sakura did the same and not too long after, their lips touched. They were in an eternal bliss, a river of emotions being coursed throughout their minds. Naruto wrapped his arms around her waist, as Sakura circled her arms around his neck, pulling them closer to each other, thus deepening the kiss.

After a while, they broke apart at each other for a while. Their lips tingled and their hearts beat fast, and they knew why.

"I...I love you, too." Sakura said, her mind still overpowered by the experience she had when she kissed Naruto.

They leaned in again, their lips meeting in a passionate kiss, loving the feeling of each other's lips pressed against their own and the emotions that came with it. After several minutes of kissing the two broke apart for air. They both noticed a shadow around them and wondered where it was coming from.

"Look up Sakura-chan." He said looking towards the sky, Sakura still in his embrace. Doing as she was told, she looked up to see a cloud looming over them.

"It's a heart shaped cloud."


There it is. The final chapter. I kind of had a block here and there, but I hope it turned out alright. Please review!
