AN: I know it's been long time since I last updated, I'm really sorry. I've been struggling on this chapter. I really had no idea how to carry it on from the last. I've literally had loads of different chapters wrote down before I finally got this one. In advance I'm going to apologise for it being so short as well. Hopefully though the next chapter will be out by tomorrow since the idea for it is in my head. Anyway I've kept you waiting long enough so please read…


The 1st letter sent to Sakura was seen as nothing special but still Sakura kept it. It made her feel special to know that there was someone that liked her and wasn't a complete fan-boy. It did however make her feel guilty having known that this guy or possibly girl had had to watch as she chased after another guy. She knew that if she had had to watch Sasuke chase after another girl when she still had huge feelings for him it would have broken her completely.

The 2nd letter for Sakura came a few days later. Naruto had delivered it with a huge grin on his face. Sakura had guessed that he had read the letter and then resealed it away. It is something Naruto would do. Sakura had opened it and after reading it a huge smile appeared on her face. This person whoever it may be appeared to think of her as more than beautiful and it made her feel so special, so wanted, so loved.

The 3rd letter came a week or so later, this time it was Tsunade that brought it, saying it had been sent to the hospital for some reason or other. After reading it Sakura knew that her secret admirer really did love her. This wasn't just a petty crush but full on love. He spoke of how his heart races whenever he sees her and when she's really close his heart seems to stop for a few moments as he takes in her beauty and only restarts when she moves on beating so fast it seems it will come out of his chest at any moment.

The 4th letter came 2 weeks after the 3rd; Sakura had been so worried she wouldn't receive any more. This time it was Neji that bought it round, moaning about how he was receiving her post and then saying something about destiny and Tenten that Sakura couldn't quite comprehend. With this letter though came a single red rose. Within the letter the mystery man told her why he gave the rose and just that single 1.

Cherry blossom

With this letter I give you a single red rose. Red roses are such a beautiful flower, not quite as beautiful as them cherry blossoms but still so beautiful. You may be wondering why I gave you the 2nd most beautiful flower in the world instead of the 1st. Simple. Red roses symbolise love. In this case my love for you. I was going to buy you a huge bouquet of them but then I thought of something, you're the only flower for me so why give you loads when I could give you just the one. This one rose is to tell you that you will always be the only one for me. You always have been Sakura-Chan. So enjoy your rose, I hope it brings joy to you because I love to see your smile, your beautiful smile, even more so when I know I'm the one that caused it.

Love your secret admirer

It was this letter that was surely Sakura's favourite. It was this very letter that made her feel that maybe she might love this guy too. The thought of being somebody's 1 true love made her feel so happy inside and though she did not know exactly who this person that was writing the letter was she felt she had a connection to them. A sort of bond. It was also after this letter that Sakura decided to tell Sakurako about the mystery man and to see what she thought about it. After all a good mother would never start something without the consent of her child.

So Sakura sat her down on the settee one day after she had come home from her 'friends' house and began to tell her of the letters and this guy and that single red rose that made her feel she could possibly be with this guy.

"…So really, well I was just wondering. What would you feel if I started dating?" Sakura asked.

"This man that writes the pretty letters?" Sakurako asked.

"Well, f I can find out a way to get in touch with him and meet then yeah." Sakura replied. The room was silent for a while as Sakurako contemplated on what her mother was asking, or at least pretending she was. Then after a few minutes she looked towards her mother and smiled.

"Fine by me mummy as long as he's nice to me and treats you well I'm happy. But how are you planning on talking to him when all he makes it hard for you to even see him by sending these letters out to different people every time. Also he hasn't given you any contact details." Sakurako asked.

"Well that's where being the Hokage's apprentice has its advantages. As soon as I tell your baa-Chan she'll have somebody guarding every possible place where this letter could be sent in seconds to find out who he is." Sakura told her.

"Oh" Sakurako instantly started to worry, she knew her mother was right and it made her fear the worse. It was too soon for her mother to find out who it really was sending her the letters. She knew her mother was still angry at Sasuke and she was quite certain she wouldn't forgive him because of a few letters and a rose. She noticed her mother had started to look at her funnily after she had just shut up and so she thought quickly of something to cover up her worried face "Mummy, how do you know this person is a guy?"

"There too corny to be a girl my dear. Only guys can come out with this romantic cheese." Sakura said as she laughed briefly.

"Hn" Sakurako 'grunted??'

'She reminds me so much of her father when she does that.' Sakura thought sadly. She was about to carry on her thoughts when the clock chimed signalling that it had reached 21:00.

"Look at the time. Off to bed for you missy. It's way past your bedtime." Sakura said.

"Ok mummy." Sakurako said as she got up and went upstairs to go to sleep. Sakura looked at the spot she had previously been sitting and sighed. She hoped so much that Both her and Sakurako would both love this guy when se finally met him.
