Sakura has never been to such grandeur social gathering before, aside from that one time during which the organization hosted for Sasuke, which was only done under a pretense and beyond the event was the reason to show everyone that Uchiha Itachi has been killed by his own kin. It was a petty act to say the least, one that Sasuke didn't mind playing along. But this time, however, Sasuke wanted this event to get over quickly.

After all that Sakura had seen, being whisked in this life that she'd never dare think of a year ago, she didn't know she can still be in awe just by simply standing in the corner of the big ballroom waiting for Sasuke to come back.

"I haven't had my proper introduction yet," the man, who seem old but young at the same time, said as Sakura turned to him. "I'm Jiraiya, Naruto's godfather and his father's mentor."

Sakura inclined her head, she knew the man must have been someone important but not as much as she thought he is. His hair seem gray and long tied in a loose ponytail but it didn't make him old. Aside from the wrinkles that Sakura knew was from smiling, the man seem kind. In contrast with the man they met a while ago, Danzo, who seem sketchy even without him saying a word.

"I'm Sakura, it's a pleasure to meet you, Jiraiya-san." Sakura offered her hand, which was the right etiquette for such a splendor event like this.

Jiraiya took her hand and planted a feathery light kiss atop her gloved knuckles before caressing it with his thumb and letting go.

"Ah, the young Uchiha really seem to have a good eye in choosing his woman. Such a lovely young lady you are, Sakura." His comment made Sakura blush a little, hiding her fluster with a small cough before averting her eyes.

"You haven't changed. Still got a good tongue in flattering women." Suddenly a woman's voice came and Sakura looked up to see Tsunade in a dark green dress embroidered with jaded stone and a Persian fur adorning its laces.

"Tsunade-san," Sakura said, a bit surprised as Tsunade looked at her with a smile.

"Oh hello, Sakura. And congratulations," she said, her eyes trailing down her stomach for a second and Sakura realized what she was referring as she nodded.

"Tsunade! Of course I would never flatter other women as much as I would flatter you." Jiraiya turned to Tsunade and Sakura noticed how his eyes seem to trail down Tsunade's bosoms that are bigger than most people's futures.

"Nice dress, Tsunade," Jiraiya said, his cheeks started to tint into red. "Shall we have this dance?"

Sakura didn't even notice some of the people are starting to dance and the two left just as Sasuke came back.

"Sasuke-kun,"

"I left you with Naruto, why are you alone?" He asked, looking around before he stood beside Sakura and instinctively snaked his arm behind her waist.

"Oh he left with Hinata a while ago, she wasn't feeling well. But they said they'll be back later."

Sasuke didn't say anything for a moment, but his eyes seem to scan the area and Sakura knitted her eyebrows.
