~Third entry~


~Red and White~


Sakura frowned slightly and a small pout appeared on her face, as she raised first one hand holding a red cupcake before her, and then she raised her other hand with a white cupcake nestled carefully in her palm.

Sigh "I just don't know which one..." Sakura murmured softly to herself.

"Which one what?" a familiar and welcomed voiced spoke up from the entrance to the kitchen.

"Hey Naruto," Sakura called out, as her eyes lit up at the sight of the blond-haired ninja before her.

Naruto let a small grin play across his face as he slowly sauntered his way into the kitchen. "So whatcha doing, Sakura?" Naruto asked curiously, as he came to stand before the girl he loved.

Sakura allowed the small pout to come across her face again, as she held up the red and white cupcakes before Naruto's face.

"I just can't seem to decide on which colour and flavour cupcakes I should bake for the Konoha Valentine's Day Dance," Sakura replied.

"Wait...you...can bake?" Naruto asked as his eyes widened in mock shock.

"Careful, Uzumaki. I do have 'monstrous strength' as you love to point out. Don't let me have to pound you into the ground," Sakura replied with a light teasing smile.

"Ahh, you know that I love your cooking my Sakura-chyyaaan," Naruto responded as he sidled up beside Sakura, and lightly rubbed his whiskered cheek against her soft cheek.

Sakura giggled softly and then turned to face Naruto, once again holding up the red and white cupcakes.

"So which one do you think I should choose?"

Naruto thoughtfully pondered her question for a second or two then he leaned forward, took a bite of the red cupcake, and then moved in closer to Sakura and gently pressed his lips against hers.

Sakura blinked in surprise, but quickly took the small offering of cupcake that Naruto had lightly pressed against her lips. She lightly licked her lips as the flavour of the red cupcake slid across them. She then opened her mouth to give Naruto a response but before she could, she once again felt the gentle press of cupcake and lips against hers, and this time she could taste the delicate and sweet flavour of the white cupcake pressed against her lips.

Sakura couldn't help a small moan from escaping her lips, and she quickly lost all train of thought as she succumbed easily to the unique taste and flavour of Naruto's mouth.

"Mmmm," Sakura murmured with a slightly-dazed smile, as she felt Naruto gently release her lips and step back.

"So do you know which cupcake you wanna bake for the dance now?" Naruto asked Sakura with a small grin.

Sakura looked at Naruto with a half-dreamy smile and said in a velvety-soft voice, "Both."

Then before Naruto could reply back, Sakura tossed both cupcakes over her shoulders, and jumped happily into the arms of the man she loved, and proceeded to smother his face in sweet tender kisses.
