Duck or Chicken?

Little Sakura Haruno was playing on the swings. It was her favorite part of the whole park. You could see everything going on in the park (and a little outside of it too) if you went up high enough. Sakura was seven years old, and proud of it. She was small for her age and she had a big forehead. The older kids used to make her cry because of it, but now they leave her alone.

One of her best friends, Sasuke Uchiha, has a bigger brother. And one day when the mean kids were picking on Sakura, Sasuke came to the park with his brother. When his brother saw what was going on, he yelled at them and then told Sakura that if she ever needed him to yell at them again he'd do it gladly.

As Sakura swung higher she watched her other best friend, Naruto Uzumaki, enter the park. She watched as his mommy tried to kiss him while Naruto was trying to get away. Sakura watched as Naruto's mommy won the fight and kissed Naruto on the cheek and waved goodbye to Naruto's back as he made a dash for the swings where he knew Sakura would be.

"Hi Sakura!" Naruto called out, as he approached the swings. He sat down on the one next to her and looked around the general area. "Where's Sasuke?"

"He's not here yet. You came second today." Sakura said smiling at the blonde haired boy.

"REALLY? THAT'S GREAT!" Sakura sighed. He'd never be quiet. While Naruto continued talking about how great he was, Sakura watched Naruto's mommy join Sakura's on the bench. Naruto's mommy was louder than he was.

One time she heard her mommy tell her daddy that she felt bad for Naruto's daddy, having to deal with Naruto being loud and his mommy being loud. Both the mommies turned and looked at the entrance and Sakura turned her head to look too. They were waving to Sasuke's mommy but Sasuke was nowhere in sight. Sakura frowned.

Suddenly Naruto's rant about ramen broke off. How did he get all the way to ramen so quickly? Well it was Naruto so Sakura didn't question the fact. She looked (as she swung by) to see Naruto clutching his head.

"Sasuke! Why'd you hit me?" he asked, still clutching his precious (and empty) head.

"Because I could hear you all the way by the monkey bars."

Sakura's eyes widened, she knew Naruto was loud, but not even she could guess he was that loud. The monkey bars were half way between the mommies and them. Maybe Sakura just became immune to Naruto's loudness.

"Hi Sasuke!" Sakura said with a smile as she jumped off of the swings.

"Sakura, don't do that you could get hurt!" Sasuke said.

"Looks like somebody's got a crush on Sakura!" Naruto sang, "Sasuke and Sakura sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes the love! Then comes the marriage! Then comes…comes…" Naruto's singing drifted off. "Sakura what comes next?"

But Sakura didn't answer his question; instead she was looking at Sasuke, whose face was as red as hers. "Sasuke?" She asked softly, "Do you like me?"

"No!" he said and looked away. "It's just dead-last's singing. It's making my brain hurt. Besides you're annoying."

"Oh." Sakura said softly looking down, but it wasn't heard because Naruto said (in his usual loud Naruto voice), "I'm not dead-last! Meany!"

"Loser."

"Stupid!"

"Crazy."

"Jerk!"

"Moron."

"Emo!" Sakura flinched and Sasuke's eyes narrowed.

"FAT HEAD!" Sasuke yelled, pointing at Naruto

Naruto calmly responded with, "My head may be fat, but at least it isn't in the shape of a CHICKEN'S BUTT!"

A gasp from Sakura and then Sasuke saying, "You TERD! My head doesn't look like a chicken's butt!"

"Yes it does!" Naruto insisted.

"No it doesn't!"

"Yes it does!"

"No! It doesn't!" Sasuke was grinding his teeth now.

"Does!"

"Doesn't!"

"Does!"

"Doesn't!"

"DOES!"

"DOESN'T!"

"Do-"

"GUYS!" Sakura's (scary) voice echoed around them. They both shut up. "Why don't you let someone else decide whether or not Sasuke's hair looks like a chicken's butt."

"Okay then Sakura, you decide." Sasuke said with a pout.

"Naruto, Sasuke's hair doesn't look like a chicken's butt."

"Ha! I told you so!" Sasuke said with a smile and a finger pointing right between Naruto's eyes. Naruto pouted.

"Wait! I didn't finish."

Naruto smiled, "I knew you wouldn't let me down Sakura!"

"Sasuke, your hair doesn't look like a chicken's butt. It looks more like a duck's butt."

Naruto started laughing and Sasuke glared at her, pouting. Well, Sakura thought, that's what he gets for saying he doesn't like me. AND FOR CALLING ME ANNOYING! I'M NOT ANNOYING!

Sakura smiled cheekily at the boys. "Don't you want to know why Sasuke's hair resembles a duck's butt more than a chicken's butt?"

"No." Sasuke muttered.

"Yes!" Naruto said loudly.

"Because," Sakura leaned in close to them, "a duck's butt is more groomed than a chicken's butt. A chicken's butt his all crazy, but Sasuke's hair is all groomed and pretty." Sakura smiled at Sasuke, who smiled back. Naruto on the other hand frowned.

"I thought it would be funny."

"Whatever." Sakura shrugged. "Can we play now?"

And so they did. They played until it was getting dark out and their mommies started calling them to hurry up because they had to make dinner. Naruto ran ahead, leaving Sasuke and Sakura to follow behind at a much more reasonable, walk. They'd run a lot, now they were tired. Naruto apparently never got tired.

"Hey Sakura?" Sasuke asked, right before they made it to the clearing where the entrance to the park and their mommies were located.

"Yes Sasuke?" He leaned over and quickly pecked her on the cheek. Both instantly turned red.

"Thanks." And then he ran off to join his mommy, still red in the face. Sakura walked over to hers and as she reached her mommy, she put an arm around her.

"Hey, Saku. How was playing with Naru and Sasu?" Her mommy shortened everyone's names.

"Good." Her mommy smiled at her. It was a smile that was all knowing, like she knew what had happened with Sasuke and Sakura a few seconds earlier in the bushes before the clearing.

"Good. Well I bet you're hungry, huh? I'm thinking pasta for dinner, what do you think?" Sakura who hadn't been paying an attention (she'd been thinking about the kiss) said a vague, "Okay."

That night, she heard her mommy on the phone with Sasuke's mommy. Sakura snuck out of her room and listened in the hallway to what sounded like wedding plans. As she listened closer, she realized their mommies were planning a wedding for her and Sasuke. She instantly blushed.

"Oh and it has to be in the park!" Sakura's mommy said, as Sakura slowly closed her door and went back to bed with a smile on her face.

On the other line, Sasuke's mommy was saying, "Then comes the baby in a golden carriage!" She didn't notice Sasuke listening from his room, just like Sakura had been. Slowly he closed his door and went back to bed with a smile on his face.

Review!

I think I'm going to add a chapter to this. It'll either be their wedding or Sasuke's proposal or just them randomly walking in the park. Lemme know your thoughts, m'kay? Cuz I value them! :D

Anyway, this just randomly popped into my head a few days ago.

Me and my brother were watching reruns of Naruto and I said: "Sasuke's hair looks like a chicken's ass."

And he said: "No, it's more like a duck's ass."

And we got into this whole argument about it before I finally asked why he thought that and he said: "Simple, a duck's ass is more groomed than a chicken's. Sasuke's hair looks groomed."

I sat there for a while, thinking it over before I finally said: "Oh, I guess his hair does look more like a duck's ass than a chicken's ass."
