PhantasyDreamer: Hey there! This is my second Naruto fanfic and I hope you guys like this one. I know I shouldn't start another story but I couldn't help myself. I came up with the idea from watching one of the episodes when Lee asked Sakura to be his girlfriend. So then it hit me. What would happen if Sakura accepted a date from Lee? This is my first attempt at humor so go easy on me if it isn't too funny. Each chapter will be quite long because of my style of writing. So I hope it isn't a problem to those who don't like long chapters, if you don't just give it a try. Well I'll stop talking now. Go ahead and enjoy the story.
I don't own Naruto, just the storyline! R&R please!
Date with Rock Lee
Chapter 1: The Date
Acceptance
Kindness
Love
That's all a young girl named Sakura Haruno wanted from her long time crush, Sasuke Uchiha. But of course in life you don't always get what you want.
The pink haired kunoichi sighed, stretching a little as she made her way out of bed. She had slept well last night and was ready to go out on a date with a friend. Someone she thought was a weirdo at first had now turned out to be a kind and loving friend. She frowned as she gazed at the picture of her and her teammates that was located on her table next to the bed. How she wished that Sasuke would like her as more than a friend or at least as a friend. She knew he thought she was annoying but she could be fun too and less annoying if she wanted to. But that wasn't the point, he hated her and would never see her other than being annoying and weak. Staring at the picture she smirked at the weird expression Sasuke had on his face but that didn't matter. He still looked as cute as ever. Getting off of her bed she placed the picture back on the table and walked in her pink pajamas towards the bathroom to freshen up.
'If only I was going on a date with Sasuke and not Rock Lee. If only Sasuke would like me the way Lee likes me.' she thought, closing the door behind her as she quickly undressed and got into the shower, 'Then my life wouldn't be so complicated.'
She turned on the shower and contemplated on how she got into this mess.
~*~FLASHBACK~*~
Sakura stood leaning on the rail of the long bridge that she and her teammates would usually wait for their teacher. But for some reason she found it strange that she was the first to arrive. A swift breeze flew by moving her short pink hair and dress in the process. Closing her eyes she dreamt of the day she would get married and the family she would build when she got older. She had always imagined it would be with Sasuke but he was so unpredictable that she couldn't tell if he would ever look at her that way, or even consider marrying her. She opened her eyes and gazed at the trees a far off seeing the leaves being tossed lightly in the wind. It was a breezy day but she didn't mind, all she could think about was Sasuke.
"Hey Sakura!" a young blond yelled, rushing towards her, waving his hands widely.
"Oh morning Naruto!" she turned to him with a smile.
He stopped for a minute to catch his breath. Bending over he had his hands on his knees trying to get in as much air as possible. He then straightened up a bit and gazed at her chuckling sheepishly. She could see that he had been running and fast maybe even for a long distance too since he was used to doing such things. Sighing she straighten her short pink hair waiting to hear what news he had for her.
"Didn't you hear the news?" he asked, confusing her instantly as she shook her head, "Kakashi-sensei cancelled our training today, plus we have no missions either. He practically gave us the day off!"
He yelled jumping in the air like a five year old. She paused a little surprised. 'He gave us the day off. Why'd he do that? Now I won't get to see Sasuke.'
"So, what do you want to do Sakura?" the spiky blond asked, blushing madly.
"Um…I don't know. Where's Sasuke?" she asked, searching the area for him.
"Last thing I heard he's having a rematch of his fight with Lee but I don't see the po-"
Before Naruto could finish his sentence Sakura had already dashed off towards the training area where Sasuke and their group would usually train. She ran as fast as she could, ignoring Naruto's screams telling her to come back. She didn't care, all she wanted to do was find Sasuke and see if he wanted to spend some time with her. After all, she felt like they had become much closer now that the chuunin exams were over. They had been through a lot and she was now more confident that he had officially accepted her as his friend. She stopped suddenly when she caught a glimpse of Sasuke and Lee up ahead getting ready to face off. She pushed herself through some bushes to see them standing there in a karate stance.
"This time Sasuke I won't hold back, I'll defeat you no matter what!"
"Good that's exactly what I'm hoping for." the dark teal haired boy replied, with a slight smirk.
As soon as they were about to start the fight they heard a loud scream coming from the distance behind them.
"Sasuke!"
Sasuke frowned upon seeing Sakura.
'Great now, what does she want?' he thought, growling a little.
Both boys turned towards the young kunoichi who was almost close to them. She hailed Lee and then tripped on a rock landing face first in the grass. Giggling out of embarrassment she sat up brushing some grass off of her face. Luckily for her there were no rocks in that area otherwise she would have had it worse. She let out a frustrated sigh as she sat still struggling to take particles of grass out of her hair. When she looked up she was surprised to see Sasuke and Lee gazing at her. Sasuke was standing there with an annoyed look on his face and his arms folded in frustration. However Lee was standing next to him with a wide smile, outstretching his hand to aid his friend.
"Hi Lee!" she giggled while taking his hand as he helped her to her feet, "How are you? Are you much better now?"
She asked as she turned to him with a genuine smile. He kissed her hand making her blush a little for no reason at all. She figured that it was because he was the first guy to ever admit to liking her besides Naruto that is. Unaware to her, Sasuke was scowling at the expression she was giving Lee and what Lee had just did but he kept a stern face trying his best not to raise any suspicion between the two.
"I'm fine my fair cherry blossom." the bowl haired shaped boy winked at her as he released her hand.
Slowly, she turned to her teammate who was frowning at her. Taking a deep breath, she decided to do what she had sorted out to do from the start.
"Sasuke…I was wondering since we don't have any training today and after the fight when you're not too busy…" she paused, blushing madly while playing with her fingers, "I was wondering if you would like to do something later. You know just the two of us. We could go for ice-cream or something."
"Uh…I don't think so I'm busy. Now get lost Sakura, I have a fight to start."
Lee twitched his eyes in irritation.
"How dare you Uchiha Sasuke hurt such a delicate creature? The flames of youth burn brightly within you Sakura and I love you for your vibrant aura!" he began raising his arms directly in the air as Sakura gazed at him stunned by his speech, "Grant me the honor of being your boyfriend and if not, will you accompany me on a date?"
He questioned her giving the cutest look he could muster. She sighed as she looked at the guy who desperately begged for her affections. Although it was the same thing with Naruto he wasn't quite as annoying. Closing her eyes she remembered how bravely he had fought to save her life in the chuunin exams when her teammates were lying on the grass unconscious. He had sworn to protect her with his life and he did just so but had also gotten hurt in the process. It was sweet of him and now she felt kind of special that someone had actually liked her even though her crush didn't. Opening her emerald eyes she gazed up at Lee figuring she should at least give the guy a chance. He was smiling widely waiting for her answer.
She coughed a little giving him a genuine smile, "Yes. I would love to go on a date with you."
"YEEEPPPEEEEE! You have made me the happiest man in the Leaf village!" he yelled, jumping up and down in victory while making the pink haired girl laugh at his gesture, "I'm going to prepare right now. Sorry Sasuke we'll have to continue our battle another time. Everything must be perfect. I'll be by your house at ten tomorrow morning Sakura, good bye my love!"
He dashed off leaving Sasuke and Sakura alone. The pink haired girl waved at his retreating back while laughing nervously. She had to admit that she was a little happy that she would finally be going out on a date and although it wasn't with Sasuke she thought she should at least try her best to enjoy it. Looking to her left she saw Sasuke glaring at her. Frowning she turned to leave.
"Well I'll see you around some time then Sasuke." she began to walk away.
Before she could get far Sasuke stopped her by gripping her arm. She turned sharply surprised by his actions.
She gasped at him. "You're not seriously going to date him, are you?"
He asked clearly showing some type of concern. Sakura shook her head a little as she pulled out of Sasuke's grasp.
"Yeah. Why not?"
"I don't know he's weird plus he's an idiot." the young Uchiha muttered, stuffing his hands in his pockets.
Sakura glared harshly at Sasuke surprising him fully.
"How could you say that? Lee rescued me in the chuunin exams when you and Naruto were unconscious." she started clenching her fists, "If it wasn't for him I could've been dead."
She bowed her head low letting her short bangs touch her dress. Her anger had subsided immediately after that as she unclenched her fists. Gazing back up at Sasuke she could see him smirking a bit.
"You're right." he stated, in his monotone accent, "Have fun."
He turned to leave waving with his back facing her and his right hand in his pocket. Sakura stood still in shock.
'Did Sasuke just say have fun?' she frowned, turning in the other direction, 'I guess he really doesn't have any feelings for me, not even a little bit.'
~*~END OF FLASHBACK~*~
Sakura walked into her bedroom after she had finished bathing and brushing her teeth. She journey towards her closet door and open it. Sliding the door fully across, she reached in and took out the attire she had put aside to wear for her date. She placed a stunning black Japan floral Chi-pao tunic blouse on the bed. It had a tie at one side ruche fitted and a mandarin collar. A small zip was positioned on the right side of the shirt. The unique floral design consists of pink, white and gold. Smiling at her shirt she then positioned the skirt next on her bed. It was a short pink mini cotton skirt that had four prongs snaps down the left side along with a tonal ribbon which was tied on the left waist of the skirt. Moving from her bed she journeyed to her dressing table to pick up her curling iron. Staring seriously in her full length mirror she began curling the ends of her short neck-length pink hair while still in her white robe. She was so happy that Kakashi had also cancelled training today although he never really gave a reason. She chuckled to herself thinking that he must have decided to go on a date or something. Trailing her fingers through her hair to see if the drop curls were bouncy enough, she sighed as she walked back towards her bed.
Sitting on it she pouted. It was almost nine o'clock a.m. and she was beginning to regret agreeing to go on a date with Lee. But a deal was a deal and she had to go through it whether she wanted to or not, besides she wasn't one to back out of her promises. She quickly dressed and headed towards the kitchen to make breakfast. By the time she was finished making and eating breakfast along with tidying up the house it was ten minutes to ten. Before she left she made any quick adjustments to her hair and face. She placed two pink butterfly earrings in each lobe of her ear. Slowly walking out of her house, she closed the door lightly and then locked it behind her. Standing silently on the top steps in front of the door she waited patiently for her date to arrive. She soon moved to the second to last step and was surprised to see her dark teal haired teammate.
"S-Sasuke?" she stuttered, looking at him absolutely stunned, as she held her small purse in her hands.
"Hm." he muttered, eyeing her cautiously.
"W-W-What are you doing here?"
"I was in the neighborhood." he folded his arms, standing right in front of her.
'Why does she look so happy?' he thought harshly, 'Is it because of Lee? Is she starting to like him? I hope not but she does look pretty today much better than her usual style of dressing. I mean she looks hot. I especially like the curls in her hair. Wait a minute where did that come from?'
He frowned feeling his face heat up.
"Um…okay. I just can't wait till Lee gets here I'm so nervous." she admitted out loud making Sasuke grunt while she leaned close to the steps railing, "I just hope I don't make a fool of myself."
Unconsciously, he came closer to her for some reason as he leaned his feet on the steps and railing. He was exactly to the right of Sakura, close enough to touch her right elbow but he didn't. He didn't know what came over him but he didn't quite like the idea of Sakura dating Lee, even if it was just one date. He had planned from the start to do everything in his power to stop or even ruin their things weren't looking good at the moment since she seemed to be happy about the date. Now all he had to do was pretend like he was happy for her.
"Where are you guys going?" he asked, suddenly surprising her.
Sasuke didn't know what it was but he couldn't keep his eyes off of her and the thought kept popping up in his head to compliment her on her attire. But he never could find or even let those words escape from his mouth. His eyes traveled to his teammate's face to see her smiling widely.
'This is not a good sign. She should be dreading this date.'
"I don't know he didn't say. I guess I'm gonna get surprised." she giggled, placing her hands on her face.
"Whatever, I don't see why you're getting excited." he muttered with his eyes closed.
There was immediate silence. The pink haired kunoichi stared at her crush in shock. Had he said what she thought he did? Did he even act like he cared? The fact that he had made a statement like that shocked her more than she thought. Did Sasuke really like her? Or was he actually getting jealous? Or was this just some game he was playing with her emotions to make her unhappy? She frowned at him. He wasn't speaking instead he was just standing there like a statue and that frustrated her even more. Who did he think he was anyway, to make such a statement? She wondered if he was beginning to like her but by the look on his face that was a definite no.
"Sasuke, are you sure you're alright?" she asked suddenly, seeing him become tense as she turned fully towards him.
"Hm."
"You sure are acting strange and I'm beginning to wonder if you're jealous."
He scoffed immediately.
"Please…Sakura…there's no reason for me to be jealous. I have no feelings for you whatsoever." he stated rather harshly with his eyes closed as she bowed her head in shame, "But as your teammate, I'm just saying to well…have…to have fun and be careful. I'm going to train."
The pink haired girl walked down the remaining steps to face her teammate whom had his back facing her. She blushed a little at his statement. Did he really care?
"Oh…Sasuke." she began but saw that Sasuke had already disappeared.
"Good morning Sakura!" came a voice as she quickly turned to the person she knew too well.
"Lee!"
"For you my love." he replied as he shoved a bouquet of roses in her face, "I am sorry I did not know your favorite flower so I decided to bring you roses."
She grabbed them instantly with a wide smile.
"Thanks Lee, its okay but you shouldn't have." she inhaled the sweet fragrance of the roses and looked at him for the first time.
She was shocked to say the least. There in front of her was Lee wearing a short sleeve dark green twin dragon linen shirt. It had dragon embroidery on both sides of the chest area, four frog buttons and side slides on the edge of the shirt. He also wore black pants that stretched out towards his ankles where his regular blue ninja sandals were. His hair was in its regular bowl shape cut but it flared lightly as the wind struck it and his eyebrows were still as thick as ever. But it didn't matter he still looked as handsome as ever, even more mature. Lee blushed at the expression on Sakura's face. He couldn't believe that she had approved of his attire. He thanked God that he had allowed Tenten to help him pick out the right suit to wear otherwise he would have been stuck wearing his usual green spandex suit. "Are you ready, my love?" he asked as she blushed a little at him calling her my love. Smiling nervously she walked back up the steps surprising him, "Right, let me just put these in some water." She disappeared and within a few seconds was back in front of him. "Shall we, Lee?" she asked, outstretching her hand to his. He took it with a quick nod. 'Wow! Lee sure looks handsome today. I wonder if I'm really gonna enjoy this date.' she thought as she walked down through the village with her arm looped through his, 'What am I thinking? Lee's a nice guy and I'm sure it wouldn't be bad. Right?'
Sasuke stood far in the open field which was a great distance from Sakura's house while he waited for his spy to come. Standing still his dark teal hair blew slightly in the wind. His hair was long in the front coming towards his chin on both sides of his face. The middle portion of his hair lay upwards while his ninja headband was tied around that area letting small portions of his hair stick to the nape of his neck. Closing his eyes he thought on what just happened. How could Sakura be excited about going on a date with Lee? Sasuke clenched his fists in fury. He couldn't understand why he felt this way. He was angry yet hurt.
'Why? Why? Why do I feel this way?' he cringed at his thoughts, 'Am I starting to like Sakura? No it can't be. I can't stand her, she's annoying! Yet I can't bear the thought of her dating Lee! What is wrong with me?'
"HEY SASUKE! I GOT IT!" a loud screamed could be heard from his left and he covered his ears to prevent any damage to his ear drums.
"Naruto you idiot, you don't have to scream." he reprimanded his teammate who came running towards him.
Naruto stood in front of Sasuke with a sheepish smile telling him sorry for his loudness.
"Heehee! Sorry I'm just so excited!"
"Do you know where they're going?" the dark teal haired boy asked as he and Naruto proceeded to sit on the grass with their legs crossed.
"Yeah, here's the list. I got it from spying on Tenten and Neji last night. Lee was bragging all night that he was going on a date with Sakura." the spiky blond stated hastily as he gave Sasuke the list. He just snatched it away angrily at the thought of his pink haired teammate in the arms of Lee, "It made me so mad that he's going on a date with My Sakura. I'm supposed to date her! Me, me, me!"
'Why did I team up with this loser? He's starting to give me a headache.'
"Get a grip Naruto before I knock you out." Sasuke frowned as he opened the paper to see Naruto's horrible handwritten. He slowly began to read it.
The list read:
Picnic by the Cherry Blossom Tree
Visit to the fountain of Love
Festival
Romantic walk home
After reading the note Sasuke looked up at Naruto to see him looking bored out of his mind. He just had one word to describe his teammate…Loser.
"So…" the dark teal haired boy replied.
"That's all I could get." Naruto smiled widely while stretching a little, "So, tell me again why are we doing this? Because according to my memory, you don't like Sakura. So is it that you are starting to like her? Or do you want me to date her? Cause I will! Either way it's me that would be with her in the end."
"Tck, idiot." he gave him a death glare making the blond pout in anger, "She's our teammates you fool and besides that you know what could happen if she continues to date Lee."
Naruto rose an eyebrow in confusion, "What?"
"Um…you know what happens when two people get together. They could well you know."
"What, what, what? They could what…hug each other? Kiss each other? Slap each other?" the blond teased a bit while tapping his chin in deep thought, "What?"
Sasuke growled in frustration with his head bowed. This was much harder than it looked. Naruto was even dumber than he looked, as if that was physically possible anyway.
"Well…they could…well…you know, they could fall in love." he sighed feeling embarrassed for once in his life.
'Why was it so hard to say that?' he thought, feeling rather stupid at the moment.
But what made him even more embarrassed was the look Naruto was giving him. The blonde's mouth was held wide open with tears in the corner of his eyes. He was holding his chest tightly as if trying his best to hold in his laughter. Before long the blond burst out laughing hard unable to control himself as he rolled over in the grass, tears streaming down his face.
"HA HA HA!" he yelled between gasps, "I knew I could get you to say that!"
"Shut up Naruto before I seriously hurt you."
He stopped immediately clearly calming down.
"Alright but I don't get it. Girls always flirt with you some practically throw themselves at you and most of the times you just stand there like a statue or more like an idiot if you ask me." he began scratching his blond hair as Sasuke glared dangerously at him, "Sometimes I get the feeling that you're scared of girls, because if you are you seriously need help. I can teach you all you need to know about girls if that's the case."
Sasuke scoffed turning his head the other way, "Whatever."
"But the thing is for some reason when I approach girls today they shout and tell me that I'm a weird loudmouth idiot." Naruto squint his eyes thinking hard on his situation, "I don't get it."
"Probably it's because of that sign behind your back." Sasuke stated, pointing at the piece of paper that was sticking out from his back.
"Huh?"
Naruto felt around his back and pulled off a sheet of paper that was stuck to his shirt. His eyes widen as he read what the paper said.
STAY AWAY GIRLS. I AM A WEIRD LOUDMOUTHED IDIOT. MY NAME IS NARUTO UZAMAKI THE VILLAGE IDIOT.
"That stupid Kiba, I'll get him for this!" Naruto yelled shaking his fist violently in the air as he stood firmly on his feet.
Sasuke got up as well and knocked him on the head receiving a confused look from Naruto.
"Let's go you idiot, we've talked long enough. Now it's time to initiate the plan." he muttered as he dragged him away.
Sakura and Lee had been walking relentlessly throughout the village and quite frankly Sakura was getting a little tired of it. First of all, she didn't know where they were going and she had no idea what Lee had planned for the day. She had already figured that they would be spending the whole day together since he had offered to pick her up so early in the morning. But she didn't mind it was just a time to get to know Lee as a friend better. They had now been walking and talking for almost an hour and a half. They talked about the chuunin exams and what else had happened since the exams were finally over. Now they were coming close to one of the biggest Cherry blossom trees in the village, under the tree stood a large picnic basket. The couple walked slowly towards it, their hands still looped through each other. For a minute when Sakura looked down she felt kind of guilty that she was holding onto Lee as if he was her boyfriend, knowing that she had very strong feelings for Sasuke but she pushed those thoughts away remembering that Sasuke didn't like her at all.
"Oh Lee it's beautiful!" she gasped at the sight before her.
"I made it just for you my cherry blossom."
They both sat down on the checkered blanket as Lee began taking out the lunch he had prepared for Sakura. He placed two small candles in glass holders on the mat. After that he took out the lunch which consists of rice balls, shrimp and a little side of carrots, broccoli and cabbage. These were all neatly organized on a paper plate. Sakura took her plate and proceeded to eat while Lee followed suit, taking out his plate as well. He gazed at Sakura for a minute wondering if she would really grow to like him like he did.
"Sakura…may I be so bold as to make a confession?" he asked, raising a nervous eyebrow.
"Sure Lee."
"This is my first date and especially one with such a beautiful girl." he stated, with a slight grin on his face, "I just want you to know how much I appreciate that you accepted my offer of a date."
"You're welcome but this is my first date too…" she smirked as she munched down some rice balls while Lee blushed madly, "I never got a chance since I was always begging Sasuke for a date. But obviously his answer was always no."
Lee gave her an apologetic look. He couldn't believe that someone could not like Sakura the way he did.
He took her hand immediately.
"My dear Sakura, you have the power of youth flowing freely through you and you shouldn't settle for less in life." he began as he let go of her hand and took up a small shrimp, "Plus, my formidable opponent, Sasuke Uchiha doesn't know what a beautiful flower he has in his sight everyday. So Sakura, consider it his lost."
He grinned making her blush. She nodded decided that he was right even thought it hurt her that he was right.
'Wow that was so sweet. Why couldn't Sasuke be like Lee?' she thought dreamily as she continued to eat her lunch.
"What did you do Naruto?" Sasuke asked miserably as he stared through some bushes a few distance from the couple.
"Ha, Ha. Well being a genius such as I am, I found out that Lee's allergic to hot sauce!"
"What?"
Sasuke gazed at him a bit shocked.
"So, I placed hot sauce in that bottle." he pointed towards a glass bottle that Lee was holding in his grasp getting ready to pour it on his shrimp, "See he thinks it's ketchup but it's actually the hottest hot sauce in the whole Leaf Village!"
He yelled getting excited.
"Great just calm down I don't want Sakura to hear us."
The dark teal haired boy muttered as Sakura turned in their direction. His eyes widen as he dove to the grass immediately. Looking to his left he could see Naruto still gazing through the bushes like an idiot and at the rate he was going Sakura would see him before long.
"Naruto duck!" he hit Naruto on his leg.
"Where?"
"There you idiot!"
Naruto barely had time to react when he felt a sharp hit on his shoulder, leaving him falling limp to the ground.
'Idiot.' Sasuke thought as he turned back to the two before him.
'I am so glad that Sakura likes me now, maybe we will be together after all now that Sasuke's out of the way.' he thought happily.
Lee moved slowly pouring the hot sauce on his shrimps. He really liked eating them but mostly with ketchup, lots of ketchup. As soon as it was on the shrimp, he quickly stuffed two in his mouth with his chop sticks. Swallowing them immediately he began to cough. His face began turning red.
"What's the matter Lee?" Sakura asked, looking skeptically at him.
"WHOA! I-It's h-h-hot!" he yelled as he reached for his bottle of water.
Sakura ignored him thinking that everything was okay. But when she gazed upwards she was shock to see him placing another shrimp in his mouth, this time with twice the amount of ketchup he had on before. He began to swallow it but stopped mid-way as the shrimp stuck slightly across his throat. Sakura stared in shock as his head began bobbing back and forth with his hands clinging around his throat in pain. He fell on his back, kicking his plate in the air while knocking over the small candles on the checkered mat. He wiggled on the grass like a crazy worm.
"Lee!" the pink haired girl screamed rushing towards him, "Lee sit up, let me help you!"
She tried to move him up in a sitting position but it was no use he wasn't budging.
'What do I do?' she bit her lip in frustration trying to figure how she could help her friend who was on the verge of dying.
She tried starting CPR to try and help him spit out the shrimp. She had already begun counting down as she pressed firmly against his chest when she smelled something oddly familiar.
"Smoke!"
Sakura dashed towards the mat to see it on fire and the flames were already spreading onto the grass. Rushing through the picnic basket, she took out four water bottles and began squirting water all over the blanket. She rushed towards the grass and got rid of the remaining fire and then turned back to Lee. His face was turning purple as he gasped violently for air. Moving quickly Sakura began again trying to aid her friend.
"1…2…3…!" she started, moving towards his lips.
"No Sakura don't do it!" she heard a soft whispered and stopped.
She turned back to Lee again, "Where was I again? Oh right, Come on Lee spit out that shrimp! 1…2…3…!"
He began coughing opening his eyes widely.
'He's coming around! Yay!'
She tried to move him in a sitting position and fortunately he began moving as he heaved heavily.
She pressed on his chest heavily trying to get him to cough up the shrimp. She couldn't go behind him because he kept sliding back down. Now he was back on the ground again still coughing.
"Come on Lee, don't die on me!" she continued another round of pressing on his chest, after she had finished counting down she moved to his lips again.
But this time she heard a loud sneeze. Stopping she gazed around at the scenery.
'Whose there?' she gazed out again, 'What's wrong with me? Get a grip Sakura don't let Lee die here!'
She screamed as she saw his eyes begin to close again.
"Lee, please don't die!" with a quick motion she hit him hard high on his chest and immediately he coughed out the shrimp which landed splat on her face.
He sat up breathing heavily.
"Thank you…Sakura, my life is solely in debt to you." the black bowl haired shaped boy stated wholeheartedly.
"Heehee! It was no problem." she smirked as Lee looked at her with guilt firmly planted on his face.
The slimly shrimp slid slowly off of her face as she tried her best not to show how grossed out she was.
He got up to his feet helping her up as well.
"Just wait here Sakura, I will get you a towel and something else." he muttered as he dashed off in the other direction.
Sakura stared down the area he left.
'This is one weird day.' she though as her hair blew lightly in the wind.
"Naruto, you fool!" Sasuke yelled, slamming a fist in his face, "You almost killed Lee!"
"What? Well how was I supposed to know it would end up like this?" he asked, squinting his eyes in anger, "Huh? Tell me!"
Sasuke issued for him to be quiet. He could see Sakura standing still gazing around the area as if looking for someone. He didn't expect the prank to go that far almost killing Lee. But luckily for them Sakura acted quickly and saved the day. A slight smirk crossed his lips.
'Lee we're not done with you yet.' he thought, 'Phase two of the plan will come into action.'
"Naruto…" he whispered as he gazed at him, "Go to the next point and I'll meet you there in five minutes."
"Alright." the blond stated calmly as he rushed away through the bushes behind him.
'Sakura just know that I'm only doing this for your own good.' he frowned, clutching his fists, 'There's no way I can allow this date to go on any further.'
Sakura sat silently on the slightly burnt blanket. She didn't understand who could have done this and what had really took place. She remembered the voice she heard and wondered who it could be.
'I sure hope it wasn't Naruto because if he was spying on me, he's a dead man!' she thought as her face grew grim remembering the scary image of Lee lying on his back as if dead.
"I'm gonna find out what really happened today." she stated with her head bowed low.
"Oh really? What happened?" came a voice startling her, a voice she knew too well.
"Huh?" she turned her attention towards the voice and was shocked to see none other than the great Uchiha himself, staring her with a slight smirk.
"You okay?" he asked as she stared at him with her mouth wide open.
So what do you think? I'm sorry this was so long. It was suppose to be a one-shot but because of my writing style and how I like to put in a lot of detail, I realized that I couldn't pull that off. So instead this will be a four chapter story. I hope you guys enjoyed it. Just tell me what you think! It may not be funny now but I'll try to make it better, I promise.
Lata!
