“Sakura chan you ok?” Naruto asked, waving his hand in front of her face. She blinked and glared at him a second later.
“I’m… fine!” she blurted out before she spun around and started shoving the groceries into his fridge. Day 2 of spending her ‘exile’ at Naruto’s apartment had commenced and though she wished she had her clothes, Naruto’s laundry had been done, and she had something to wear.
A faded white T shirt with orange spirals on the front and sleeves, with a pair of green shorts over his boxers, and a pair of house slippers. She fortunately had her sandals she had worn with her kimono, but neither had planned for such a long ‘visit’.
“Your parents aren’t gonna kill me are they?” Naruto nervously asked her the morning after.
“I told them I wasn’t coming back till they stopped arguing like idiots and embarrassing me in front of you,” Sakura said quietly. “Mom was ticked off, and Dad was very matter of fact.”
“I know that you told them you were HERE, but… um… still… they’re your parents,” Naruto said nervously.
“Yes, they are,” she muttered.
“Besides even though you look cute in my clothes I’m sure you wanna wear some of your cute stuff right?” Naruto stammered nervously, treading that fine line between annoying her and pleasing her verbally.
“Let’s go shopping, and restock your fridge, Naruto,” Sakura then had said, and dragged him off to the grocery store and to the local shopping place.

Back in the present moment she felt Naruto’s warm hand gently rest on her shoulder and his breath next to her ear. “Sakura chan, it’s ok if you wanna tell me, but why do you always stare off into space so much without saying anything?”
“It’s not something you’d get,” Sakura said embarrassed.
“C’mon, you’re dating a guy who’s got a nine tailed fox inside of him,” Naruto grumbled, looking hurt. “What could be so embarrassing you can’t tell me, huh?”
Sakura turned around, nose to nose with her boyfriend who gently grasped her upper arms in either hand. Those blue eyes she loved peered right into her as if trying to peek into her soul and she cursed to herself. That Uzumaki charisma had won her over even if it took longer to rub off and lead her to undertake a more closer relationship with her teammate.
She grumbled and pushed her head into his shirt instead, smelling the alluring scent of fabric softener that predominated most of his laundry. The cheap kind that worked the best. Yes, Naruto smelled of cheap fabric softener, and something like musk. Thanks to him she felt sexual desire each time she smelled that smell now.
“I… talk to myself…” she whispered.
“Talk to yourself, but that’s not so weird! I mean pervy sage talked to himself all the time when…”
“HE’s an author! I’ve no excuse!” Sakura complained into his shirt.
“I don’t get what you mean Sakura chan,” the blond confessed, giving her a close hug.
“I mean I’ve got a split personality and I talk to myself in my HEAD!” Sakura snapped, pushing away from him. Yet his hands held onto her.
“Is that it? Sheesh I thought you were gonna tell me that you were still in love with Sasuke and you didn’t wanna date me anymore!” Naruto blurted out in relief.
Sighing she looked up at his confused and scared look. “I told you I’d never leave you, Naruto. And I mean it. We’re going to get Sasuke back together, so you can keep your promise to me, and I can keep mine to you.”
My promise that I won’t be a burden, she added mentally.
Stupid sucker! Just tell him how you really feel! Inner Sakura cursed.
“Even now she’s yelling at me,” Sakura admitted, squeezing her eyes shut.
“Who?” Naruto asked. “You’re not possessed for real are you?”
His eyes turned white and he shivered, gripping her. Sakura rolled her eyes and sighed. “No, idiot. I mean there’s an ‘inner me’ that I argue with… have been arguing with since… well…”
“Inner Sakura chan?” asked Naruto, blinking in confusion. “You mean another you inside your head?”
“Yes,” Sakura muttered, sheepish as she tried to pull away but Naruto wouldn’t let her. Instead he squeezed her tightly to himself and rocked her back and forth. Stunned Sakura closed her eyes and returned the hug.
“Is that all? I mean seriously… it’s not like the kyuubi talking to me is it?” Naruto whispered to her. “Inner Sakura chan won’t take you over and flip out will she?”
“I don’t know, Naruto,” Sakura said in a tiny whisper. “She’s another side of who I am. The fire, the things I’m not. And she pisses me off a lot!”
“What does she look like?”
“Just like me. But I hadn’t been talking to her much ever since I had training with Tsunade sama. And then… she started talking a lot again…”
“Is it my fault?” Naruto asked, blinking.
“Yes… no, I mean I don’t know,” Sakura mumbled, pressing her face into his shoulder. She felt him let go only to wrap his arms around her and guide her towards the second hand sofa he had to sit on in addition to his bed. Reluctantly she let him walk her there and he sat down, before patting his knee.
Sakura grumbled, “Pervert…”
“C’mon, just sit down please Sakura chan” Naruto pleaded, giving her that pout. Relenting she sat down on his lap crosswise and leaned into his shoulder.
“You’re so spoiled it isn’t even funny, idiot,” she mumbled, but was secretly glad of this affection. Automatically his hand gravitated to her cheek and his eyes flickered half closed. She knew what came next, the kiss that she feared and loved. Though she tried to dodge it, he caught her right on the nose, and then worked his way down.
“Not fair,” she mumbled, breaking it reluctantly to breathe. “That stupid perverted master of yours taught you all kinds of stuff!”
“Well, if you really wanna know,” he mumbled. “I practiced kissing myself… in my sexy no jutsu mode… so when I came to kiss you…”
“You are a major creep!” she shrilled trying to get off his lap but he held her there.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry Sakura chan!” he yelped as she smacked the back of his head. “But if it was with my clones it’s the same as someone kissing a mirror right?”
“Kissing a MIRROR?” Sakura yelped, trying to get off his lap.
“Well Pervy sage says all girls like to practice kissing themselves in a mirror!”
“You didn’t have sex with those clones did you, in that silly female form!” Sakura grumbled.
“I know that sexy no jutsu upsets you and I’m sorry,” Naruto said quietly. “If you don’t want me to do it again, I’ll try not to use it…”
“But I thought it was your ideal woman,” she muttered.
“Nah, it’s the ideal women guys like to see as a distraction,” NAruto said shyly. “I mean I never turned into you cause I was afraid if you found out I tried to imitate you you’d kill me!”
“But how… why?” she asked quietly. “I mean seriously…”
The blonde shrugged. “It just worked.I mean…”
“Never mind,” sighed Sakura. “If you use it in battle I promise I won’t freak. But if you use it to spy on other women for ‘research’ I’ll kill you.”
“I don’t want to look at other girls naked when I can look at YOU naked,” he grinned, in that cheesy way.
“Good. Cause anyone else I’d put their eyes out…” the pinkette said sweetly.
Naruto noticed that strange blush on her face and muttered, “Sakura chan? If you want I could show you how to do it…”
“Why would I wanna learn such a stupid jutsu?” Sakura mumbled.
“Well it would give you an upper hand if you knew how to disguise yourself better? I mean… well…”
“You aren’t going to let this go are you?” Sakura sighed as she got off his lap.
“Well, it’s easy. You think of what you’d look like as a handsome man… and poof…”
“I can’t believe you’re teaching me this,” Sakura grumbled, listening to his explanation. She closed her eyes as he moved behind her and then focussed. The first attempt was a bit… questionable.
“Handsomer,” Naruto said. Sakura tried again, and turned into Sasuke, which confused him.
“Les… Sasuke teme like…” he urged, feeling himself choke seeing that.
When the smoke next cleared he saw a tall handsome masculine man with shoulder length hair just like hers, wearing shorts and gleaming all over.
“YES! That’s it!” Naruto chuckled. “I’m sure that’d make anyone fall over.”
“Honestly,” Sakura sighed, and then looked at her own version in the mirror and drooled. “By the will of fire I look like a hunk…”
She heard the noise of a henge behind her and then saw that hated sexy no jutsu floating in a mist of clouds. Naruko moved behind her and wrapped her arms around Sakura’s chest, slowly massaging it.
Sakura yelped. “Are you freaking CRAZY?”
“I’m just proving a point… cause you don’t gotta feel jealous of me in this form if you look like that in your own form,” she giggled in a little girl voice.
“I ought to pound you,” grumbled Sakura in a deeper male’s voice. “But I’ll spank you instead…”
Seizing Naruto she threw her over her shoulder, and sat down, then started slapping his backside. He started to yelp, then realized Sakura was enjoying this. Both of them moaned softly kissing one another until a loud knock at the door startled them both. Dropping their transformation simultaneously they looked at one another.
“Sakura? Are you in there? Uzumaki Naruto if you’re in there with our daughter you’d better be decent or else!” shouted a woman’s voice.
“Oh crap, my parents,” gasped Sakura.
Naruto giggled nervously and grinned, knowing they were in for it.
