Sakura smiled lgihtly and nodded.
'It feels good to get that off my chest.' She thought.

Naruto finished the sushi and went on to mix the salad. Cooking allowed him to relax and forget about being the Leaf's spy administrator, it was one of his only releases.

'She's pretty cute when she's thinking to herself like that', he chuckled at his thoughts...

Sakura closed her eyes and started to hum a random tune.

Naruto listened to her hum as he set the salad aside and then put the cake mix he had made into the oven, followed by putting the meat he had brought on the pan over the stove...

Her humming continued as she looked up at her cieling.

Naruto interrupted her after awhile, "That's pretty Sakura-chan. I didn't know you liked singing, or even just humming."

Sakura looked at him.
"A little bit." She smiled big.

Naruto grinned, the finest shinobi musicians were their enemies so it was refreshing to hear something that didn't mean death was on it's way.

"I can't follow a tune to save my life. It just ends up becoming strange growls because I get so frustrated."

Sakura sighed and shook her head.
"It only takes a little time and patients." She said, pointing to the air.

Naruto pulled his meat off the stove and cut it up. Besides the baking cake, it was all ready. He began bringing the food in bowls and plates.

"Ready Sakura-chan? Your taste buds are gonna explode!"

Finally he took out two sake cups and filled them with one of Jiraiya's finest bottles.

"Ero-Sennin left me some pretty nice stuff. This is one of the best bottles, he said use it on a special occasion in his will."

Sakura took in a deep breath and smiled. "It smells great, it looks great... It's only the tasting part." She said, watching him. "So, yeah... I'm ready to lose my taste buds." Sakura sighed.
"I guess this must be special than, eh." Sakura raised an eyebrow.

Naruto lifted his cup, "Oh yeah it is, my first drink with my first girlfriend! It's a very special occasion."

Naruto wanted his first drink ever to be with Sakura, but when he had turned 21, Gamabunta and he had shared a drink to become equals in each other's eyes.

Sakura took her cup and looked at it, narrowing her eyes slightly. She then looked up at him and smiled big. "I never had my first drink..." Sakura mumbled, raising an eyebrow.

Naruto grinned, "You're in for a surprise then. You might want to hold your nose, the first sip is always the most bitter."

Naruto raised his cup to his mouth and drank it's contents. There was a tingly after taste to this bottle, Naruto grinned at Jiraiya's great taste.

Sakura frowned slightly and brought the cup to her lips. She then took a small sip, feeling the liquid in her mouth, slightly burning it, and made a face. "Wow." She said in a gasped, raising an eyebrow.
