"Naruto."
A shake.
"Naruto."
Another shake.
"Oi, dobe."
At that moment, the blonde stirred, a scowl written on his face. "The hell are you doing here, jerk?" He questioned and tried to push the Uchiha from the window, hoping he'd fall.
"We were suppose to train." He said sternly.
"Forget it, I'm cutting some slack."
"So you'll admit defeat then?"
Immediately, Naruto's fist clenches and he grasps Sasuke's collar. "No way am I gonna lose to you! C'mon! We're training, alright!" Sasuke smirked and pried the dobe's hand off his collar.
They both head out for the window, jumping over roofs and sprinting 'till they reached their training ground. Once they reached their destination. They saw a familiar face lying down peacefully on the grass.
"Sakura?"
The girl stood up, dusted herself and greeted the two casually. "Kon'nichiwa, futari-tomo." Sasuke looked upwards then back at the girl. "What were you doing here?" He questioned. Sakura felt offended a little. "I'm your teammate! Jeez. I heard you two were going to train."
"Oh, yeah! We could use some help though!" Naruto said, despite swallowing their pride. "Of course." Sakura scoffed. "Why didn't you guys tell me? I mean, just because you two are so great at training, you can't ask a girl to train with you?"
"That's not what we-" Sasuke was cut off, "Bunch of sexists." "Sakura." He looked at her through the eyes. "We need you to train with us. I admit, you are smarter than the two of us." He smirked and Naruto snickered.
"And?" Her hands on her hips. She was clearly waiting for another compliment.
"You're pre-"
Naruto stifled a laugh, but it stopped when Sasuke shot him a menacing glare. Sakura rolled her eyes. The Uchiha fought the urge to blush. Clearly, he was on fire.
"You're uh..." 'Screw it.' "You're pretty." He blurted out. The dobe wasn't expecting this, however, it only got him more interested. "Ohohoho~" He teased. "NARUTO! Shut up."
"Nah! I won't!"
"NARUTO!"
"SASUKE!"
"NARUTO!"
"SASUKE!"
"NARUTO!"
"SAUSAGE- I MEAN- SASUKE!"
Sakura blanched. "SHANNARŌ YOU PERVERT!" Then a punch was sent on both of their bottoms. Both yelped, dropping to the ground as they held it in pain.
"I didn't m-mean to say it...Sakura-chan!" Naruto winced.
"Why me?" Sasuke whined.
"You started this whole thing." Sakura accused. "Look, if you weren't so sensitive-" "Sensitive?! You're calling me sensitive? If only you called for me because you two were going to train, then I wouldn't have bursted out like this!"
"Oooh...someone's on their period!"
BONK.
"Shut up!" She yelled.
"Listen here..."
"What is your problem..."
"What did I do..."
The three were now arguing. Kakashi popped in the background, watching them from the bushes. "Hm...what do we have here?" He mumbled. "I wonder what they're arguing about?" His lips quirked as he watched the scene with amusement.
Several punches were missed, some landed on Naruto. "You're not beating me, Sasuke!" The raven-haired scoffed. In the meantime, Sakura stepped in the middle and tried to kick Sasuke by the jaw, but he simply dodged it.
Consumed by their argument earlier, they were into the fight. They barely noticed their intentions with each other. Kakashi cracked a small smile. He felt yet another painful memory course through his brain.
He paid no heed to it since he didn't want to get sentimental.

Evening reached the Village of the Hidden Leaves as the three genin lay on the grass, tired and spent. "Remind me to point out who started this fight again." Sakura spoke. "Excuse me! I didn't start it!" Naruto protested.
"Me neither." Sasuke told her calmly. "Okay okay, that's about enough." A voice filled in from behind. "Sensei?" Naruto mumbled. "You were training. Just came to see your progress."
"How was it??" Sakura asked.
"Poor. You three have got to work on your teamwork."
The three sweat-dropped, but nodded in response. "Now let's go get dinner." Kakashi said. "Are we having it at Ichiraku?" Naruto asks. "Nope. Let's have something different." The blonde groaned.
Team Kakashi peacefully walked down the food lane of the village. People crowded some restaurants. But luckily, the only vacant one was Ichiraku. "But sensei! There aren't that much people in Ichiraku!"
"I've got a rent to pay, I've got missions to do, I'm broke." Kakashi mumbled as he flipped through the pages of his book. "Lame excuse!" The three shot at him, and Kakashi paled.
The silver-haired male sighed.
"Hai hai...we're eating at Ichiraku. Now come on, before I change my mind."
