BTW: Not sure what I want to do with Sasuke and Sakura if you have suggestions PLEASE share them

RECAP: Naruto and Gaara make up and all that good stuff. Sasuke learns about feelings for BOTH his team mates and uh yea oh and he wants to talk to Kakashi after kissing Sakura goodbye at her door but he finds him at the bar drunk.

Kakashi and Sasuke were stumbling through the streets. Sasuke was wondering how the Jounin had any respect in Konoha. Sasuke finally made it to his apartment. He made him a cup of black coffee. He then realized this could be his chance to see his sensei's face. He tried to pull his mask down saying things like "I'll help you drink this so it won't spill" but even inebriated he was sharp as a tack when it came to his physical identity staying a mystery.

It took Kakashi all of 10 seconds to sober up. Sasuke started to tell him about his dilemma.

"Well ya know how I said I love Naruto?"

"Yeah..."

"Well I figured out I don't love him as much as I thought I did. I also found out I love someone else too."

"Oh! So who's the lucky guy?"

"Well, that's the thing...I thought from now on I'd be into guys but I've found that I might have some feelings for Sakura...we kissed twice in the bathroom and we kissed goodnight...I love her...and Naruto...or do I..."

Sasuke was waiting for a response, it was taking some time so he looked at his sensei. He was surprised to see that his face had gone serious, almost mad.

"You kissed Sakura three times tonight?"

"Yeah, they were the best kisses I've ever had...I know I love her...and Naruto...but I don't know which I love most..."

"Sasuke after what you did to Sakura I thought I'd never forgive you, I still haven't fully. Now you tell me you love her, and Naruto...Sasuke do you think about anyone else's feelings except your own? When you kissed Naruto, did you think about what that would do to Gaara, and did you think about what it'd do to Sakura and our whole team when you took advantage of Sakura...did you think about what it;d do to me when you told me you love Naruto and Sakura...?"

"...what are you trying to say...?"

"I used to think of you as you and Naruto as sons and Sakura as a daughter...after what you did...you were no longer my son...I was starting to forgive you seeing as Sakura was, but then you tell me you're in love with Naruto. Not soon after you drop that bomb you tell me your also in love with Sakura, my beautiful little girl who you hurt physically and mentally...I can't accept that..."

"Sensei you seem to be forgetting that Sakura isn't your real daughter, she might not even think of you as her father and I came here for help...now you like me even less-"

"There you go again. It's always gonna boil back down to you isn't it, Sasuke? I won't let you hurt Sakura again."

"She wants to be with me too!"

Kakashi looked like he'd just been slapped in the face. Sasuke waited for a response but got none, instead he continued to try and get through to Kakashi.

"Yeah that's right, she loved the kisses as much as I did, she loves me back...not as much as I love her but it's enough...I can't get closer to her just to find that I never truly loved her...I won't hurt her again. That's why I came here...I love Sakura and Naruto...I think the only reason I want to be with Naruto now is because I can't have him. When me and Sakura were talking I couldn't help but noticed how beautiful she looked and up until that point I thought I was gay...I realized the only man I had feelings for was Naruto and I don't think they're real...when me and Sakura kissed I realized just how much I love her...but I don't know if it's the same situation as Naruto..."

"Sasuke, you better stay away from Naruto...I'll talk to Sakura..."

Kakashi stormed out slamming the door, Sasuke was so stunned by Kakashi's words, he got weak in the knees. He was on his hands and knees on the floor shaking. He finally got enough strength to crawl clumsily into bed and sleep.

MEANWHILE

Naruto and Gaara were too sore for anything or that nature so they just cuddled up next to each other and kissed themselves to sleep. Naruto couldn't help but worry about Sakura. Sasuke had really blind-sided her with the whole 'Sasuke's in love with me' news. He soon snapped out of it when Gaara pushed his tongue into Naruto's mouth. Naruto got a moan from him when he started sucking his tongue. Naruto broke the kiss for a brief second.

"Gaara *pant* I'm still too sore, aren't you?"

"Heh *pant* yeah I am, kissing's fine for me though, could you do that tongue sucking thing again...?"

"Hehe..."

Naruto rolled on top of Gaara and kissed him open mouthed, Gaara gave him his tongue which Naruto proceeded to suck passionately. They soon grew tired and fell asleep, Gaara didn't even have the strength to pull his tongue out of Naruto's mouth. Naruto loved Gaara and Gaara loved Naruto.

MEANWHILE

Sakura didn't know what to think. Did Sasuke love her or was it just him making up for not being able to get Naruto's love. When she broke the kiss with Sasuke and shut the door she'd just stood with her back to it for about 10 minutes. She didn't know what to make of the situation. She decided if she slept on it i would be worked out in her sleep.

THE NEXT DAY

Sakura woke up to someone rapping on the door. She drudged her way over to the door and opened it. She'd forgotten that she looked like she'd just woken up. She tried despertely to fix her hair as she greeted Kakashi and invited him in.

"Good morning Sakura, hope I didn't wake you..."

"Oh of course not, I'm normally awake at 7:30 on a Saturday! What are ya here for anyway."

Sakura sat down on the couch and Kakashi followed.

"Well, Sasuke came to talk to me last night, I was wondering, how do you feel about him...?"

"W-what do you mean?"

"Well have you forgiven him?"

"I'm getting there, did he tell you what happened last night...?"

"If you're referring to the kissing between you two then yes I heard."

"Oh, well, now you know...and um I was wondering...do you know which one of us...he loves more?"

"Well according to him, his love for Naruto was just a jealous crush, nothing more. For you, however, his feelings seem to be love...but Sakura, are you ready to love him of all people just yet?"

"Well, you of all people know I've always liked him...after last night...I can't stop thinking about him...I think I love him, Sensei..."

"I guess that settles it, I'll be going then...be at Ichiraku's at, hmm, let's say 11:30 ok?"

Kakashi left after telling her that last bit of information. Sakura was wondering why Kakashi was asking her such things but she didn't care.

MEANWHILE

Naruto woke up with Gaara's tongue in his mouth. He gently started sucking it again, waking Gaara up with a big smile and immediately started kissing him back. The kept it up until their jaws go sore. When they broke the kiss they were both panting.

"Morning love.."

"Morning Gaara...what do you want for breakfast?"

"You."

They both giggled and started kissing again. Naruto was able to get up to get breakfast ready for his lover, Gaara went with him not breaking the kiss. Once they were standing up Gaara put his hand on the small of Naruto's back. Naruto rested his upper arms on Gaara's shoulders. Gaara meandered his hands down to Naruto's small little butt and goosed him. Naruto giggled in Gaara's mouth and continued sucking his tongue. Naruto finally broke the kiss and put their foreheads together.

"I'm going to make breakfast, ok?"

"Mhm, I love you Naruto."

"I love you more."

Naruto gave him a quick kiss, grabbed his hands and walked him into the kitchen. They started talking about what they wanted. They decided on pancakes, which Naruto proceeded to cook for his shy lover. When he was finally finished they sat down for breakfast.

"Naruto, I was supposed to be back to the Sand two days ago..."

"Oh that's right! We'll send a messenger hawk and tell them you're on your way...unless you want to stay?"

"Of course I want to stay! I was worried you wouldn't ask."

Gaara kissed his forehead and continued eating the delicious meal Naruto had made.

MEANWHILE

Sasuke was woken up by the same rapping Sakura had heard. He looked just as bad when answering the door. Kakashi didn't walk in this time.

"Sasuke, I've invited Sakura to Ichiraku's at 11:30 bring enough money."

"Does this mean you're ok with this?"

"It means I support Sakura's feeling."

Sasuke grinned, Kakashi's face grew cold. He lifted him up by the shirt and held him to his face.

"If you hurt her again, I swear I'll kill you."

Kakashi threw him to the ground, not enough to hurt to bad but it hurt none the less. He slammed the door behind him and left. Sasuke was terrified, Kakashi had just threatened to kill him. He'd always thought of him like a father. He shook it off and prepared for his date with Sakura.

MEANWHILE

Naruto and Gaara were watching TV and cuddling when Naruto heard someone knock. He kissed Gaara and got up to get the door. He was surprised to see Kakashi. He then became frantic realizing he hadn't told him about Gaara yet. Kakashi had known for quite awhile but he soon remembered Naruto hadn't told him yet. Naruto had closed the door so all he Kakashi would be able to see was him.

"Hey Naruto, I just came by to tell you we're not training today..."

"Oh OK, um...can I talk to you?"

"Well of course, shoot."

"No not here. I'll see you at the training ground...noon..bye Sensei."

Naruto closed the door before Kakashi responded and snuggled back up to Gaara's chest.

"Sweetie, what was that about?"

"I'm sorry but...I haven't told Kakashi sensei about us yet...I just don't know how he'll take it...I'm sorry love..."

"I do wish you'd already told him but, I can't blame you...honestly...no one in my village knows anything..."

"Well when were you planning on telling them?"

"Well Temari knows I kissed you on the teacups...and she knows I came to visit...I'll call her when you go to see Kakashi..."

"How'd you know I was meeting Kakashi?"

"Despite what you think, shutting the door slightly doesn't soundproof everything."

Naruto giggled with Gaara and they continued to watch until about 11:15 when Naruto went to get in the shower. Gaara jokingly asked if he needed any help. Naruto was about to accept when he remembered he had 45 minutes.

MEANWHILE

Sakura was sitting at Ichiraku's waiting for someone to show up. Earlier she had assumed it would be Kakashi but as far as she knew him and Naruto had training today. She was about to order when Sasuke showed up. She hadn't seen him running up to the ramen shop. He got directly behind her chair and because she's so light he was able to spin her around. Of course spinning her around didn't do much seeing as she still couldn't see him [those flappy things are in the way], not to mention the fact that she was extremely confused. He grabbed her by the upper arms and brought her towards him.

Her head was barely out of the restaurant [referring to those flappy things that hang to seperate the eatery from the street] before Sasuke started in kissing her. Her eyes opened and when she realized who it was she wasn't sure whether to kiss back or to pull away. Her opinion didn't matter when Sasuke stuck his tongue in her mouth. She went straight to jelly, and he started sucking her tongue. She was on could 9, her head rushed back to earth when she realized that this was how she'd felt the first time at the market. She soon broke the kiss.

"S-sakura what's wrong?"

"I just...ya know...so what are you doing here? Kakashi sensei told me to be here but he hasn't shown up yet. You here to see him too?"

"Sakura, Kakashi sensei came to my house this morning, he's Ok with us being together. Is that OK with you?"

"Y-you asked his permission?"

"Well, I uh, I was asking him about you and Naruto, when I said I wanted to be with you...he was less than happy, but something changed his mind! Isn't that great?"

Sasuke held Sakura closer by her waist.

"Of course, of course it's great, so what does this mean...?"

"Well, all I know is I love you, I don't have real feelings for Naruto, and Kakashi is accepting. I guess it means smooth sailing, right?"

"Y-you love me?"

"Of course I do."

Sasuke tilted his head and kissed her deeply. She wasn't sure this was a good idea, but the love of her life FINALLY loved her back. She was kind of worried about the way she threw around the word love, like it was nothing. Maybe that's what would happen with her and Sasuke's love. Would it last? Would he try something like that again? Was he just running from his feelings for Naruto? Could she get over her underlying fear of his advances? All these questions ran through her head, Sasuke broke the kiss and stared at her.

"Sakura, is something wrong?"

"N-no..."

"Sakura, you don't have to be together right this second. I can wait for you, I never expected you to forgive me at all. I'm just glad you'll still talk to me. And after a while, if you really can't forgive me or don't want to be with me, I'll back off, leave you alone. Then again if you, at some point in the future, do want to be with me I'll always be here. I love you, Sakura."

"Sasuke, all I was thinking was that anytime we kiss...I get a reminder of that day and...that's not what I want to be thinking when I'm kissing you..."

"...I see, just say the word and I won't bother you again..."

"That's not what I meant, but it'll take time before I could really be with you again."

"...Well, I love you...wanna get ramen?"

"I still want to be with you, I really just need to talk this over with someone...I'll meet you at the training grounds at like 6:30 OK?"

Sakura didn't wait for a repsonse, which people seemed to be doing a lot lately. She grabbed his face as if she was going to kiss him, which is what Sasuke was planning on, instead she got on her tip toes and kissed the top of his head before running off to find Naruto.

NOTE: Hi, this is awkward but I accidentally completely left out one chapter between 14 and 15 so i combined it with fifteen but it was written at the same time but yeah...now that i see it without the chapter it probably didn't make like any sense
