Bring Sasuke back!

"..Just a bit?..how long as I out?''Gaara asked

"Just for fun"Naruto quickly said.he then began tickling Hatsumi's cheek again.

"You expect me to let that ******* get away with it!?''Sasuke asked angrily

 

".... About fourteen hours..." Satoshi said sheepishly.

"I can't imagine you and Hinata-chan fighting." Sakura muttered.

"Of course." Itachi was starting to get annoyed.

 

OOC:hmm..let me respond to that in the following way:

Sasuke responded by shooting a fireball at Itachi.

"...I wasnt serious..she doesnt want to hurt me..''Naruto said nonchalantly,focused more on the sleeping Hatsumi than the actual conversation

" Fourteen hours?!''Gaara exclaimd,how could she still be awake?especially after a whole day of training.

 

"I don't have time for this." Itachi disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

"Naruto, you know she's..." Sakura searched for a word. "Fragile. Did you talk to her about this yet?"

Satoshi blushed, embarrassed. "I was worried about you. I couldn't just go to sleep."

 

OOC: how was packing? XD

Naruto shook his head"..She's still 'fragile' ....I dont ever want to tell her''he said

Sasuke was getting tired of the same line and dissapearing act Itachi gave him,he turned and began running back to Konoha.

Gaara released the hug"..Come on..let's go..''he said,as he began walking off to Satoshi's house.

 

OOC: such a pain!

BIC: Satoshi tried to suppress a yawn but it didn't work too well.

Sakura sighed. "You'll have to toughen her up."

 

OOC: ouch...XD

Naruto shook his head"Dont girls toughen up girls?.boys can be too rough..''he warned her

"..Almost there.'''Gaara said,he patted her back and continued on his way.

 

Sakura raised an eyebrow. "Are you calling girls weak?"

Satoshi felt bad going home to sleep. Things needed to be done and she could always use some more work with the Gobi, but that meant another lie to Gaara as well.

OOC: there's too many things to pack and most of it brings memories... some of which are painful... but it'll all be over soon and then i can unpack and try to live a semi-normal life in utah...

 

They arrived right outside of her house"..Do you want me to come in with you..or?''he asked,a little embarresed about them being alone in her house.

Naruto quickly backed away"O-of course not Sakura-chan..I was trying to say that..they arent as tough as-I mean..they dont have much stamina as--no that's not it''Naruto began sweating,he was between a wall,and an easily angered Sakura.

 

Sakura rolled her eyes. "I'll punch you later." She looked down at Hatsumi.

"I'm fine." Satoshi smiled. "I've got to see Matsuri-chan later, so I might not see you until tomorrow." She hadn't used that excuse yet and figured it would do for now. She gave Gaara quick kiss on the cheek and went inside.

 

Naruto let out a sigh of relief and moved back over to Sakura,he sat down next to her and looked down at Hatsumi"..But I was serious before..a girl like you can help hinata out better than I can''he said

Gaara rubbed his cheek,never having something like that happen to him before.he smiled weakly and began walking to his office,there were meeting to go to,papers to sign,and missions to give.

 

Satoshi let out an irritated sigh at herself and flopped onto her bed. As long as he doesn't find out then I won't have to explain to him... I still feel guilty lying to him all the time though... She grabbed her clothes off the floor, took a long, hot shower, and rolled her eyes when she saw that she didn't have her kunai pouch with her. She dried her hair and began searching her apartment for it.

Sakura smiled. "I guess you're right. But the training I went through might be too much for Hinata-chan. I'll have to take it easy one her."

 

"Or maybe Granny can!she helped you,remember how weak you were before?''Naruto asked,not realizing how insulting he was being.

 

Sakura placed Hatusmi in the crib that she'd asked a medical ninja to bring. "Naruto..." Her tone was threatening.

 

"What?..remember how useless you were?..I mean half the time you were just screaming me and Sasuke's names and didnt do squat..''he said,he grinned and put his hands behind his head"I love reminiscing''

 

Sakura cracked her knuckles. She didn't bother calling Naruto an idiot or giving him a warning; she just punched him in the jaw, but not hard enough to break it.

OOC: gtg see ya tomorrow

 

Naruto flew into the wall and had a very dazed look on him"..Sakura-chan...why..?''he asked

Sasuke opened the door and ignored the passed out Naruto on the floor"..I just came to make sure both of you were ok..''he told Sakura,he walked over to the crib and looked down at his daughter,sleeping peacefully.

 

"We're fine." Sakura said. She didn't say anything about why Naruto was there; she thought Naruto should tell Sasuke himself when he woke up.

Satoshi found her kunai pouch under her bed after ten minutes of searching. She strapped it on her leg and tied on her headband. She looked out her window and yawned again. I guess a little nap before training can't hurt... Satoshi looked at her clock. It's two now... I should start training at five by the latest...She set her alarm for four thirty, laid on her bed, and, after a bit of tossing and turning, fell asleep.

 

"..Im assuming Tsunade taught you history of the various Konoha clans..do you know who started the Uchiha clan?''Sasuke asked Sakura,still looking down at his daughter.

 

I don't see the point of this. Kabuto thought as he climbed into Satoshi's room through window disguised as one of Suna's ANBU. He looked over at Satoshi. She's useless now... If I were Orochimaru-sama, I'd be more interested in that Uchiha girl that Itachi-kun targeted. She seems weaker and at least she has the Sharingan. He sighed and left a scroll on Satoshi's desk. That 'mission' should keep her busy long enough. He left quickly the same way he'd come.
