Sasuke and Naruto showed up at the bridge that they were supposed to meet at, together. This shocked the hell out of Sakura. That's not the only thing that shocked her, they were talking. Not arguing just talking.

“Hi Sasuke!” she said hoping he would say hi back. He didn't. He didn't even look at her. He just continued to talk to Naruto. `What's so interesting about Naruto?' she wondered. They waited for about an hour before their sensei finally showed up. When he did, he tried to come up with some lame excuse for why he was late, but before he could say anything, Sakura was already yelling at him. “Our mission today is simple; you need to pick up all the trash in the training grounds.”

“Why do we always get stuck with all of the lame missions?” Naruto complained.

“Because you are only genin.”

“So, we've been on a big mission before and we came out of it just fine!”

“If you have a problem with it, take it up with the Hokage.”

Naruto just pouted. “Come on dobe. Let's get this mission over and done with.”

So, they went around picking up all the trash. Sasuke and Naruto weren't being very competitive with each other, which confused Sakura. “Sensei?” she asked.

“Yes Sakura?”

“Do you know why Sasuke and Naruto acting differently today?”

“No, I don't.” he lied. “But why don't you ask them.” He told her. `I doubt they'll tell you anything though' Kakashi thought. She just walked off, heading towards the two boys. `How can I ask them what's going on between them without them getting mad at me?' she thought. She was pulled out of her thoughts by Naruto talking to her.

“Do you want something, Sakura?” the blonde ninja asked. Sasuke just kept picking up the trash.

“Umm.. is there something going on between you two?” she asked.

“You do you ask?” Sasuke replied instead of Naruto.

“Well, you two have been acting different today. I'm just curious as to why.”

“No reason.” They both said rather quickly. Naruto went back to picking up trash and walked away so Sakura couldn't ask him any more questions.

“Um, Sasuke. I was wondering. Do you want to hang out after this?” the pink haired girl asked.

“no.” was the simple, cold reply. He just walked off and joined the blonde.

After about an hour, they finished. As usual Naruto asked Iruka to buy him some ramen. But this time he made Sasuke come. As they were walking to Ichiruka's, they ran into Haku. (A/N don't ask how he's alive, but he's one of my favorite characters. So, I'm including him in my story. Zabuza isn't alive though.) Well actually, Naruto ran into him, tumbling over him too.

“You really should watch where you are going.” Haku said pushing the blonde off.

“Oh, sorry Haku. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going.” Naruto and Haku became friends after their fight on the bridge. He helped Haku up and they started to talk. “How's Gaara?” Naruto asked. Haku and Gaara had been together practically since they met.

“Fine. He wanted to come, but he couldn't. He's busy with his Kazekage stuff.”

“Oh. Tell him I said hi.”

“Ok, talk to you later.”

“See ya!” Naruto, Sasuke, and Iruka continued walking to Ichiruka's. When they finally got there, Naruto was already ordering. After they ate Naruto and Sasuke went back to Sasuke's house.

“Do you think we should tell other people about us?” Naruto asked.

“Do you?”

“Yeah. It would make people stop thinking we're crazy `cause we're hanging out together. And Gaara and Haku had no trouble telling people. Neither did Kakashi-sensei and Iruka-sensei.”

“I would've settled for a simple yes or no.” Sasuke replied and gave the blonde a kiss.

“I wonder how Sakura will react.” Naruto said when they parted.

“Who cares?”

Sakura was just walking around the village thinking. `I wonder what's really gotten into those two.' All of a sudden there was a green blur in front of her.

“Hello, Sakura.” He greeted.

“Hi, Lee.” She replied.

“Would you maybe like to hang out with me right now?” he asked hopefully.

“Um….sure.” she said politely.

They started walking and talking (I'm not going to put in all the details.) they did that for about two hours. “I better get home. My mom will be mad if I'm not home on time.”

“Ok. I will walk you home.”

`Maybe he's not so bad.' She thought as they walked to her house. “Thank you for walking me home, Lee.” She said, making him blush.

“Sakura…..”

“Yes?”

“Will you…..be my girlfriend?”

She hesitated to answer, causing Lee to think that meant no. So, he started to walk away. “yes.” She said almost to quiet for him to hear.

“Really?”

“yes.” She smiled at him and he gave her a small kiss on the cheek before heading towards his house.

Naruto and Sasuke were both late to the meeting with everyone, but that's not what surprised everyone. (By everyone I mean: Kiba, Hinata, Shino, Ino, Chouji, Shikamaru, Lee, Tenten, Neji, Sakura, Haku, Iruka, Kakashi, Asuma, Gai, and Kureani.) What surprised them was that they were holding hands when they showed up.

Sakura just smiled and held Lee's hand. Ino, along with everyone but Sakura, Lee, Kakashi, Iruka, and Haku went into shock. Ino tried to form a sentence but all that came out was “how….what….why?” only Shikamaru heard but made no effort to say anything.

Haku greeted them both as if there was nothing different. After people got over the shock, Gaara shows up. He notices Sasuke and Naruto and says “about time you two hook up.” The voice startled them, but Naruto just laughed at what he said.

Asuma clears his throat loudly to catch everyone's attention. “Didn't we come here for something other than looking at each other?” with that said they all started talking about the next chunnin exams. That lasted about one hour. When they finished everyone started to head home.

“Hey!” the familiar feminine voice called.

“Yes, Sakura?” Sasuke replied.

“Do you four want come with Lee and me to Ichiruka's?”

“Sure, but who's paying?” Naruto said.

“Um, any volunteers?”

“Well since none of you are going to volunteer and I think I'm the only one who could afford to pay for all of you and Naruto. I guess I'll do it.” Gaara said.

“okay.” Everyone said in unison.

“So, how long have you two been together?” Sakura asked Naruto and Sasuke.

“About three days.” Naruto replied.

“Oh. So, there was something up yesterday.”

“Ha-ha. How long have you and Lee been together?”

“Since yesterday.”

“So, you're not mad about m being with Sasuke?” everyone looked at her curiously.

“Nope. You're both happy, so why should I be mad? Besides I have Lee.” She said with a smile.

Before they reached the ramen store, they saw a bunch of Anbu around. So, Sasuke decided to see what was wrong. “What's going on?” he asked one of the villagers around.

“I heard that Itachi's back in the village.” The villager said not knowing who had asked, and walked off.
