Sakura‘s Confession, Naruto‘s Reply------------------------------------
As Sakura walked towards Naruto’s room, she began to have doubts. The more she thought about it, the more she was sure that Naruto didn't love her anymore. As she stood in front of his door, she began to really feel the pressure of what she was actually doing. Her palms began to sweat and her mouth seemed to dry up. 'But I've come this far, and I'll be damned if I chicken out now,' Thought Sakura as she rapped twice on Naruto's door,
"Naruto. It's me Sakura, listen I have something I want to talk about with you. Would you open the door so we can talk??" Sakura called.
She waited for a few seconds for an answer, and receiving none, called out again. "Naruto! Please open the door! It's really important and its something that I really need to say."
Still no answer. Almost screaming in frustration and on the verge of tears she tried one last time. "NARUTO!!! Open the door!!!" "NARUTO!!!"
Still no answer.
'Its just like I though, he really doesn't love me anymore.' Sakura thought as she sank to her knees and began to cry, softly into her arms. Then huddled outside Narutos door, she began to sob, and with the sobs, came a feeling of abandonment. 'He could at least open the door,' she thought angrily, as she noted that the door had still remained shut. Lost in her thoughts and sadness she didn't notice the sound of footsteps coming towards her. Then while she was huddled in front of the door a voice spoke from behind her.
"Sakura??? What are you doing here?" "What’s wrong?? Why are you crying??" Startled Sakura lifted her head to see a concerned Naruto staring back at her. Then without mean to she threw her arms around him and cried
"Na..Na..Naruto!!" Sakura sobbed.
"Hey easy there Sakura. Jeese you look beat. Ok calm down and tell me what’s wrong." Naruto asked.
"Baka." Sakura sniffed.
"What what do you mean Baka, common tell me." Naruto said as he crouched down beside Sakura, his concerns showing on his face.
"You are. I thought that..I thought that you didn't lo...like me anymore. I called to you and sat outside your door calling for you for like ten minutes, and when I never got a reply it all sort of went to hell." Sakura sobbed ash she reached out and hugged him.
"Ok so why were you calling for me? And what’s this about me not liking you anymore...where in the world did you come up with a silly thing like that??" Naruto asked startled by the sudden show of affection Sakura had shown.
"Still sobbing Sakura felt her courage return, and while embracing Naruto she uttered three words. "I.....love you."
Startled Naruto reacted in the most obscure way he had ever done. He began to laugh. At first it was a low chuckle but soon it was a full hyena cackle. Shocked Sakura let her arms fall away from Naruto's neck and sat there looking sad again.
"Did Sauske put you up to this as a joke? Common out!" Naruto called, but then seeing Sakura's face he immediately stopped laughing.
"You...Your serious?? I thought you were in love with Sauske?" Naruto questioned.
"Well its true I had feelings for Sauske but right around the time that you left I began to change, and I was overcome with a sensation I had never felt before. It was the same as when Sauske left and went with Orochimaru, but I knew you would be coming back so I didn't understand it at first. But as the days passed I started to chase after Sauske less and less, and began to think of you more and more. Naruto I really do love you." Sakura said as she once again wrapped her arms around Naruto's neck.
Naruto still stunned at hearing Sakura confess to loving him, was struck dumb even more when Sakura did the unthinkable. She leaned forward and kissed him. Naruto, startled by the suddenness of the kiss tried to resist at first, but soon gave up and let the sweet embrace wash through him. The taste of her lips and the feel of her tongue against his was like nothing he had ever experienced before. They sat kissing each other for a few moments more, and then broke apart. Sakura sacred that she had acted to rashly stared at the ground, making circles with her fingers. They sat in silence for a few seconds before Naruto composed himself enough to speak.
"W.Wo..Wow. Th..That was am..amazing." he breathed.
Sakura hearing those words looked up from the ground and starred at Naruto.
"Sakura. We have known each other for seven years. In which time you have beat on me, and called me names. But this....well his well makes up for it all. I want you to know, that everyday I trained with Jiraiya, I thought about you, and how I couldn't wait to see your smiling face again. I love you Sakura." Naruto said as he reached over and pulled Sakura into an embrace. Then holding her to his chest Naruto felt her relax.
"Na..Naruto, I don't know what to say." Sakura breathed. She could smell the perspiration on his body, but she didn't care. She felt safe...safer then she had ever felt before.
"You don't have to say anything. I know exactly how you feel. One things for sure I can' wait to see the look on Sauske’s face tomorrow when I tell him about his." Naruto said jokingly still holding Sakura close to himself.
Sakura blushed and batted at Naruto’s hand as he began to stroke her hair. Then feeling much bolder, he stood and offered Sakura a hand up from off he ground.
"So are you going to stay sitting on he floor all night, or would you like to come in for a cup of tea." Naruto teased as he helped Sakura to her feet.
"Baka, you’ve gone and made me blush again. Honestly. Oh well one things for sure...Kakashi was wrong about you not understanding women." Sakura said as she took his hand and was pulled to her feet, her face flushed.
Naruto chuckling, at this remark opened the door to his room and motioned for Sakura to head in. Then after Sakura had entered Naruto followed, and as Sakura made herself comfortable Naruto closed the door.
