Flower Crown
"Hey Sakura!" Someone called as I walked through the marketplace and I turned around to find Kiba, Ino, Hinata, and Shikamaru.
"Oh, hey Kiba. What's up?" I asked once they caught up with me.
"I was gonna ask you the same thing. Do you have the day off or something? I thought your team was supposed to go on a mission." I sighed.
"Yeah, we were supposed to but it got cancelled because Kakashi-sensei got assigned to a different mission. What about you? Do you have the day off?"
"Yeah, it's the same thing; Kurenai had a mission to do."
I turned to look at Ino and she shrugged. "We just came back from a mission so Asuma's giving us a break."
"What are you guys going to do then?" I asked and started to walk with them when they continued down the road I had been walking on.
"We're actually heading to the academy to meet up with Shino and Choji. Since both of our teams had the day off we thought it would be cool to hang out." Ino explained and I furrowed my eyebrows.
"At the academy?"
She laughed, "No, billboard brow. We're just going there to meet up since we all live pretty close to it. We're going to go have a picnic someplace else after. Choji's bringing the food but we don't know where we're going yet." My eye twitched at the insult but I said nothing.
"If you want you can tag along with us. We should see if Sasuke and Naruto want to come, too..." Kiba said trailing off and I smiled.
"Thanks, that sounds great! But I don't know where they are." I said frowning as we approached the academy entrance.
"Oi~! Over here!" Choji shouted, waving from his spot under the shade of a tree.
I waved in greeting to him and Shino, as did the others before we reached where they were. "Hey guys, look who came to join us." Kiba said, tossing an arm over my shoulder and I stiffened slightly before pushing him off.
"Hey Sakura." Choji greeted happily and Shino nodded in acknowledgment. "Are Naruto and Sasuke coming too?"
"Actually, we were wondering if you had seen them. We were going to ask if they wanted to hang out but we don't know where they are."
He hummed in thought before shaking his head and taking another chip from the bag he was holding. "I haven't seen them..."
"You should check the meadow." A voice said and we turned to see Iruka standing there, carrying a few textbooks. "I saw them heading there earlier." He said smiling and we nodded in thanks before he walked off.
"The meadow, huh?" Shikamaru said. "That's not too far and it's pretty nice this time of year. Why don't we meet up with them and have the picnic there?"
Ino clapped her hands together. "That sounds great!"
It didn't take long to get there and once we arrived, we were stunned by the serene look of the open field, splattered with the colors of several flowers. Trees encircled the area and under one, not too far off, sat Sasuke and Naruto. Naruto had taken off his jacket and put it to the side so he sat in his black shirt with his pants bunched up slightly. They leaned against eachother as Naruto picked flowers and appeared to be making something while Sasuke read a book.
We were about to call out a greeting when Naruto suddenly smiled and shifted quickly, almost causing Sasuke to fall over. "Yes! It's done!"
"What are you talking about?" Sasuke asked, seeming midly annoyed as he marked his book, sitting up and let Naruto turn toward him. Naruto just smiled and reached up before placing something on his head. Sasuke blinked before reaching up and taking it off his head to look at it. "A flower crown?" He asked looking at the beautifully woven white and blue flowers. Naruto nodded taking it from Sasuke and placing it on his head again.
"Because you're my prince." Naruto said teasingly before laughing lightly. We all blinked in surprise. Did he seriously just say that?
Sasuke smirked. "Does that make you my princess?" He teased back and Naruto frowned at being called a girl. Sasuke chuckled and grabbed the flower crown again, placing it on Naruto's head. "I think it looks better on you." He stated and Naruto blushed before turning to the side and grumbling.
Sasuke reached out and turned Naruto's head toward his. "You look cute when you blush." He stated causing Naruto to blush even more before Sasuke moved closer.

"WHAT!?" Ino and I shouted at the same time. Choji dropped his chip bag, Kiba's jaw was somewhere on the floor with Hinata who had fainted, and Shikamaru looked mildly surprised while Shino was... Shino.
The cause of our shock was the fact that Naruto and Sasuke were kissing, Naruto's arms around Sasuke's shoulders and Sasuke's arms around Naruto's waist. Or at least they had been kissing until we had shouted. They broke away quickly, grabbing their weapons until they realized who it was.
Naruto looked absolutely mortified and hid his face in his hands but, if his red ears were any indication, he was blushing pretty hard. Sasuke on the other hand, looked completely relaxed and put his weapon away. "Do you need something?" He asked, one hand still around Naruto.
"Ah, w-we, um, we were wondering, uh..." I stuttered, my mind still trying to comprehend what was going on. He raised an eyebrow in question and turned to the others.
"We figured since we all had the day off today, we could all hang out. We brought food so we could eat lunch somewhere and came to see if you two wanted to join." Kiba explained still slightly surprised before he smirked at Naruto. "It seems like your busy though." Sasuke shrugged.
"What do you think?" Sasuke asked and Naruto groaned.
"I think I want to die..." Naruto muttered and Sasuke chuckled.
"So... you two are together?" Ino asked and Sasuke smirked.
"Yeah, in fact..." Sasuke hugged Naruto a bit tighter and kissed his forehead. "Today's our one year anniversary."
"AH! ONE YEAR!?" Ino and I shouted simultaneously and he nodded. How did we not notice this?
Shikamaru sat down and we followed soon after, Naruto eventually coming out of his hiding spot. "How did it happen?" Kiba asked and Sasuke smirked again.
"Well, one day during training, we were sparring and let's just say things got... heated." He purred and Naruto punched him, a small blush on his face.
"You wish. He came up to me and just blurted out this incoherent jumble of words that was his version of a love confession."
"I like my version better." Sasuke stated and Naruto laughed lightly.
"You know..." I whispered to Ino as I continued to watch them laugh and flirt. "I kind of wonder how I didn't see this coming."
She blinked before smiling. "They are pretty perfect for each other, aren't they?" I nodded and a smile of my own made it's way on my face as Sasuke once again picked up the flower crown and placed it on Naruto's head.
