NaruSasu Love Story~ Not the way you expected ;)

Chapter Four- Never let Naruto bake Cakes O___O

I yawned and looked at the clock. 7:00. It blinked and I sighed. Why did I wake up now? I felt for my desk and switched on the light. It was quiet outside, the damp, dark weather you have before a storm. Sighing, I closed the lamp and tried to go back to sleep. For some strange reason I couldn't, even though I was throughly exhuasted. "This is not what I had in plan for a Saturday..." I mumbled while slowly getting up, stretching and yawning. It wasn't that early anyways. 

I looked at my desk, full of scattered pieces of paper. "Seems like now is the perfect time to do some clean up...?" I looked around. Everything seemed to be in order. "Oh, I remember...I did all the chores the day before yesterday." I plopped back down in my bed, closing my eyes. I was really, fully awake and I had no idea what to do. If I went training-

I blushed and threw a hand over my eyes. "Gah, it's not like he'll be there again." I mumbled into my hand and got up. It would be good to get some exercise. 

Dressed fairly warm, I went outside, quietly closing the my door with a click. Taking the key out, I paused to look at the sky. It was going to rain again. Clouds welled up above me and a streak  of lighting raced through the sky. Maybe this isn't a good idea...I groaned and went back into the house. Maybe I'll just have to find something to do. I closed the door slowly, still not sure about my decision. "Well then I guess I'll have to make breakfast for myself?" I chuckled and thunder boomed, making me yelp in surprise. I cleared my throat and went to the kitchen, shaking my head and laughing softly. 

"Well, I guess if I had time to make something different now would be good." Today was free day, no missions. I opened a cabinet that I hadn't touched in awhile. The hinges creaked loudly and I grabbed the mixture and a jar full of cream looking material. 

"Sakura gave me this for Valentine's Day...I still haven't touched it..." I snorted at the memory. On Feburary 14th, she had ran up to me, holding out a box. "Here's your present!" She had said happily, and surprised, I had taken the present. "Does this mean that you finally love me back, Sakura chan?" I said, teary eyed and Sakura had bonked me on the head. "Of course not, you idiot! I gave one to everyone, just to be nice." She laughed when she saw my sad expression. "Oh cheer up. Look at the present!" I looked down at my hands.

Strawberry Cake Mix~Perfect for beginning cooks! Package include Cake Mix and Instructions, also a coupon for topping, half price! 

I looked at Sakura chan. "Uh...thank you...?" I had no idea how to bake, and one of the reasons why I stuck to ramen was that I didn't want to blow up my house. "Oh, don't worry! I've got the topping for you too!" She handed me a jar. ".....It's....pink..." I sighed and she nodded. "Of course! I wanted to give you the lemon cake one but Choji took it. It'll be delicious anyways!" I had groaned. "Sakura chan, why didn't you just buy me ramen? This is a waste of money and time!" She had looked at me, a vein popping on her head. "APPRECIATE THE THINGS THAT PEOPLE GIVE YOU, YOU IDIOT!" And punched me right on face, sending me flying to netherland.

I smiled at the fond memory, petting my cheek, and went to work, rolling up my sleeves. "I can do this!" I pep talked myself and took out the instructions. 

1. Heat Oven to 350.F for shiny metal or glass pan, or 325.F for dark and nonstick pan. Grease bottom only of 13x9 pan or bottom and sides of all other pans.
