(I know the last one was rather short, and I am going to try, and do something about that so please bear with me, because I am using Microsoft Word 2010, but when I upload it, it has the same story, and everything, but when it is published it is significantly shorter than I expected.)

Naruto let Sakura down so she could unlock the door, but her hands were shaking so bad she could hardly hold the keys much less unlock the door. "Let me help there Sakura-chan." Naruto said gently, and wrapped his hands around Sakura's to help steady them while she unlocked the door. Naruto picked her back up, and walked over to the nearby couch that was in the living room. 'I swear I will find his killer, and avenge him!' Naruto thought to himself, which was also a silent promise to Sakura.

Sakura just started bawling into Naruto's shoulder once again, crying her eye's out. "Naruto-kun, I know it's not your fault that Sasuke is dead, it is his own downfall that he decided to try, and destroy the leaf village after killing Itachi." Sakura said in between sob's, and sniffles. "Remember when I said I loved you back in the village you were staying at with Yamamoto?" Sakura said looking up directly into Naruto's eyes, and waited for him to nod. "I was not joking when I said that, I love you, I have gotten over Sasuke, the reason I am crying over him is because he was a very good friend of ours." After Sakura said this she noticed that this caused a tear to streak down Naruto's face, but he remained the same.

Naruto nodded to all of this, he knew better than anyone that they had lost a good friend, and he had lost as best friend, Sasuke had even said that Naruto was his friend. "I was beyond surprised when you said those words which I had wanted to hear you say ever since we were added to team seven." Naruto said suppressing his own tears, because he was not about to break down in front of Sakura. "I love you to Sakura-chan…" Naruto said, and before Sakura could even gasp Naruto had his lips on Sakura's in a deep, loving kiss before separating a second later. "Sakura-chan I have wanted to do that for a long time, but you never gave me the chance to, and now I have something to tell you, remember when you, and Sasuke were sitting on that park bench, and it seemed as though he was about to kiss you after confessing his love to you?" Naruto sheepishly asked, and waited for Sakura to nod. "Well that was me transformed into Sasuke." Naruto admitted sheepishly, and did his trade mark grin a little.

Sakura felt like sending him through a wall, but she felt it was not the time or the place to do it. "I should kill you for that, but now is not the right time to do it, the truth is I liked you even back then, but I would have never admitted it." Sakura said with a light blush, before looking away meekly. "I didn't realize it back then, but something about you was just warm, and inviting, like a loving parent's hug. It seems to have gotten brighter as of late, I just want you to hold me here, and don't let go." Sakura said, and Naruto did not waste a second to take her up on that offer, and wrapped his arms around her, and hugged her as lovingly as he could without hurting her in the process.
