7.

Sasuke was back from investigating  by himself, and Naruto  yelled  his name when he saw him walking.

"SASUKE!! get over here!! I need to talk to you!!"

The raven haired sighed, and stopped walking, standing in front of Naruto.

"What do you want?" Sasuke asked him. "Can't you  see I just got back?"

Naruto frowned, and grabbed the Uchiha's arm, pulling him.

"Hey! What are you doing?!" Yelled Sasuke, but Naruto  just ignored him, and kept dragging him.

Naruto dragged him to Ichiraku ramen, and made him sit down and order. How? Don't  even ask.

"What do you want?" Sasuke grumbled. "Can it be that important?"

Naruto  took a long slurp of his noodles, and gulped hardly.

"Are you being nice to Sakura-chan?"

Sasuke just stared at the blonde  gulping  down his noodles. So Naruto dragged him all the way here just to ask him that? And why was he so overprotective  over Sakura when she's with  him? Does  he still like her? No, that can't  be it. He has Hinata.

"So?!" Naruto said, making Sasuke look up to him. "Have you?"

"..you were with us." Sasuke said. "On the mission, where  I yelled at her."

Naruto quickly  stood up. "Why did you yell at her?!" He shouted. "She probably  thinks you still hate her!!"

Sasuke gritted his teeth. Hate her? Sasuke never hated her. When he was a little kid, he just found her annoying, as was too focused on getting revenge.

"I never hated her, idiot!" He yelled, standing up right infront of Naruto. "She just ran off and i-"

Naruto's angry expression went away, then he smirked.
"You were worried about her?" Naruto  said, while grinning. "Worried about her getting hurt?"

This idiot.. Sasuke said angrily,  but in his mind.

Naruto laughed and put a arm on Sasuke's  shoulder.

"Don't  hurt her, ok? She's  already wasted enough tears for you."

Sasuke looked down. Yeah, he has wasted a lot of tears on him. From where he left the village, before he put her in a genjutsu, and many more. When Sasuke and Naruto fought, they both lost one of their arms. And when Sakura went to go heal them, Sasuke tried to say something,  but Sakura interrupted him by saying: "shut up, I need to concentrate.." then the Uchiha's eyes softened at the pink haired girl. "I'm sorry for everything.." he had apologized.  Which made tears roll down her cheeks.
"You better be... you jerk!" She said, while sobbing.

Sasuke sighed.

"Ok, I won't  hurt her again. I promise." Sasuke said, making Naruto smile.

Sakura was discharged from the hospital, and she decided  she'll  go get something  to eat. Maybe some fried chicken. Or, some rice. Maybe even a salad? With tomatoes, which reminded her of Sasuke.

Or maybe she'll  just head to ichiraku. She surprising  had a taste for ramen. What? A taste for ramen? Is she turning into Naruto? She hoped not.

She walked towards ichiraku ramen, ordered the usual, and slowly ate it. She wondered what she'll  do after this. She really missed Sasuke, so maybe she'll  go look for him? No.. Sakura thought she'll  just be bothering him.

She finished her ramen, and walked back towards her apartment.

As she was walking, she bumped into someone, and stumbled backwards.
