Teehee! I'm back from Disneyland!! I didn't get my picture with Goofy though. :'(
C is for Cuddle: because Neji is the prettiest girl in the group, or Sasuke is really going blind.
They already had the documents with them, sealed in a scroll in Neji's kunai pack. On their way back, they have fought a group of bandits and some rogues, but nothing they couldn't handle. Camp was set up, and 3 out of four members were sleeping soundly. To follow protocol, one would keep watch, and they would switch every two hours.
Sakura took the third shift, allowing Shikamaru to get some shuteye. He nodded and lay down in his sleeping bag as the pinkette donned her black cloak. She sat on a tree branch that hovered above the group and started swinging her legs aimlessly to pass the time.
Finally, her 2-hour shift ended with no casualties. She hopped down from her tree branch and walked over to her raven-haired teammate on the other side of the campfire. She couldn't help but snicker and pull out her (recently very useful) digital camera and take a snapshot of the…ahem…circumstance.
The Uchiha Sasuke cuddling face first into The Hyuuga Neji's neck. They face each other, arms warped together in a strange pretzel. Noses were DANGEROUSLY close, to the point that they could almost be…
'I don't have to wake him up now…it'll ruin his fun.' She thought as she returned to her branch, sniggering at the little screen of the camera.

The next morning, the team was packing up to return to Konoha. Sasuke was mad at the pink-haired medic for not letting him take watch, but she merely gave him the excuse that his injuries were the worst of the team's, and she needed him to rest.
"Besides," She taunted. "I didn't want to ruin your 'fun' with Neji."
This made the said Uchiha and mention Hyuuga stiffen slightly. They looked up at their only female teammate as she sealed her sleeping bag in a scroll and dropped in it her pouch. She merely beamed at the two as she followed Shikamaru into the trees.
Neji let out a low growl. "Haruno, give me that camera right now!"
Sasuke looked at him questioningly. "What camera?"
"The one she took to take a video of you hugging a pillow and moaning Kakashi's name." He explained.
"Sakura…"
The two shot into the forest at light speed to catch up with their other two teammates.
A few minutes of running and they catch up with the tactician and the medic, laughing their heads off. When they felt the killing intent surrounding the two ice cube kings, she stopped and sat on the branch putting on her most innocent yet angry pout-y face as she crossed her arms in front of her torso.
"I have a reason to be mad too, y'know." She said as the Hyuuga and Uchiha halted to a stop, shooting their worst death glares at the kunoichi.
"Why is that?"
"DAMMIT! Uchiha Sasuke, you've kissed more boys than I have! And I'm a girl!" She accused angrily.
Sasuke stared at her in surprise. He then looked at the (equally stoned) Hyuuga from the corner of his eye. 'So that's what happened last night…'
"Either way, you wouldn't be able get the camera." She said, breaking their epiphany. She reached into her chest armor, right where her cleavage should be, into a pocket that held a small scroll. "I believe, this is what you're looking for." She said, before running off through the forest.

Yes, Sakura has a thing for putting her stuff in scrolls. It actually makes things much easier to carry. That's why her pack is always so small.
NEXT CHAPTER'S SNEAK PEEK!
"Yeesh, and I thought you were a genius."
SHIKAMARU'S NEXT!
