I was just going to leave this as a one-shot, but I'm a sucker for a happy ending.

Disclaimer: Still no.

Naruto was heading home from a training session. He did his usual routine, got something to eat at Ichiraku's, talked with whatever friend was there or happened to be walking by, and then went home for some well deserved sleep. When he arrived, he found something unusual, a completely blank white envelope on his coffee table.

Where did this come from?

He picked it up and unsealed it. Inside was a short note.

Dobe,

Don't think of looking for me, I'm far away from Konoha, but I know how predictable you are so I transported this to your old apartment. Just because I'm never coming back and tried to kill you a few times doesn't mean I don't want you to be unhappy.

-S

P.S. Quit looking for me and leave me alone.

Sasuke? What?

He took a look at the much longer letter. When he finished reading, he ran from his apartment, like the future of ramen depended on it.

Deserves someone better my ass.

He found her just leaving the hospital.

"You're the only person for me Sakura-chan." He said as he held out her letter.

The girl stared at the paper and gave the blonde a confused look.

"Where did you get that?"

"He sent it to me. Is it true?"

She nodded.

"I love you." She stated the obvious.

"I love you too."

He stood centimeters from her.

"Do we kiss now?" He asked.

She resisted the urge to smack him.

Baka.

Instead she answered his question with an action.


Far away, like he said, Sasuke was filled with an unexpected sense of accomplishment.

About time.


There, some NaruSaku goodness, now will someone review? Please?
