Nikki's POV

(PJ⬆️)

I was awaken to the sun, shining through my contain I sit up and covered my mouth as a yawn came. I rubbed my eye as I stood up and walk over to the window, moving the contain aside to see a beautiful morning.

I opened the window, to let in some fresh air while scratching my arms over my head and sigh, feeling refreshing but then I felt arms wrapped around my waist and kisses on my shoulder and I knew it was Sasuke.

"Good morning my bird." He whispered into my ear while resting his chin on my shoulder.

I smile. "Good morning Sasuke." I greeted him and kiss his cheek.

We enjoy the sceneries. "I could get use to this." I turn to him confused. "Waking up every morning to see you, looking so beautiful in the morning light." He said causing me to blush at the loving expression, he was staring at me.

"Um... Well let's start making breakfast!" I proclaimed and rush out, blushing as Sasuke laugh while following.

As we cooked, Sasuke would sneak a kiss on my cheek whenever he had an opportunity which was embarrassing to me, at how affection he was but happy because he was only was only being like that to me and no one will be able to see this side of him.

As I was finishing the food, Sasuke was setting the table for me. Once I came with the food and Sasuke hugged me from behind. "Looks good as always." He comment causing me to peck him on the lips real quickly.

"Thanks." I said while he pull out mine chair for me and push it in once I sit.

After breakfast, Sasuke insisted to wash the dish while I took a shower first.  Once I was done changing.

(Picture the headband on her forehead and not round her neck.?

I walk to the living room while tiring my leaf headband on my waist. "Sasuke, you can shower now." I told him as he nodded and head to the bathroom.

Once Sasuke was done, we left my condo and when to the meeting place.

When we arrived, Sasuke lean against the railer while I sit next to him on the railer, reading a book since we were the first ones here.

"Good morning Sasuke!" I look up to see Sakura coming running toward us while waving with a sweet smile.

I sigh as she ignore my present while Sasuke didn't pay any attention to her.

After a few minutes later, I heard some running and turn to see Naruto.

"Good morning, Sakura, Nikki~" Naruto greeted in a singing tone before glares at Sasuke.

I looked at both of them before sighing as I close my book. They're doing it again... These two have been acting weird since The Land of Wave. I thought worried, looking at the sky.

Many hours has passed and we were still waiting for Kakashi-sensei.

"Hello, everybody. Good morning." I look up to see, Kakashi-sensei has finally arrived.

"I got lost today, so..." "you're late!" Naruto and Sakura shouted as their interrupted Kakashi-sensei excuse while he jump down.

"Hey, hey, Kakashi-sensei! We, the 7th squad, have been only doing easy missions, right? Isn't there a missions, right? Isn't there a mission where I can play an active role, and something that's more...exciting?" Naruto said as his eyes turn to fire. "Something that makes my 'way of the ninja's you know, and my heart you know, like this?" He finish while Kakashi-sensei back away from him.

"Oh, I see, I see, I see what you're trying to get out." Kakashi-sensei said as Naruto was on fire.

Sasuke help me down from the railer but then I saw Naruto glares over at Sasuke and I sweat drop when I could tell he daydreaming. "I want to say something like that!"
Naruto shouted out.

"Hey, Naruto. What are you doing? We have a mission." Kakashi-sensei told him.

"Roger!" Naruto exclaimed.

"You're so noisy!" Sakura snapped at him.

Our first mission was pulling weeds out of an old woman's garden.

As we were pulling the weeds, I look over at Naruto to check on him, only to have my eyes widened as I notice that he had pull the herbs with the weeds.

"Hey, you..." I saw the owner and she didn't look happy at what Naruto had done.

"Miss, I'm done pulling out all the weeds." He said proudly but notice that she was shaking. "What's wrong?" He wondered.

"Those aren't weeds..." Naruto looked at her confused. "Those are herbs that I've been CULTIVATING!" She yelled out and beat him up.

Our next mission was cleaning a river while Naruto had a black eye. I gasp as I suddenly slipped but Sasuke grabbed my waist before I hit the water and pull me close to him.

"Be careful Nikki, it's really slippering." He told me, righting his grip on my waist causing me to blush at how close our faces were.

"Yeah, thanks." I said nervously which he notice and smirk as I looked away.

Suddenly we heard a splash and saw Naruto, being carrying away.

"Someone help...!" Naruto called out as he tried to swim. "FREE FALL!" He screamed as he fall down.

Naruto stop screaming when he realized that he stop falling and look up to see Sasuke holding his ankle as I look over to them from the edge of the cliff.

"Are you guys okay?!" I called down worried.

"We're fine, don't worry!" Sasuke told me causing me to sigh in relief.

Our third mission was walking dogs. Easy you would think.

I look over to Naruto as he was bringing dragged by a big dog, that he had picked while the rest of us had small dogs.

"Hey, don't go that way." Naruto said, trying to stop it by digging he's feet's into the ground. "Hey, come on!" I watch as he was heading towards the minefield.

"That idiot." Sasuke said as I picking up my small dog.

"*Sigh* That's what happens for choosing the big dog." Sakura told us.

"Maybe we should help him before he get's hurt." I said worried as my dog lick my cheek.

I wince as it was too late when the minefield goes off causing me to sigh while sweat drop at Naruto, who was burned while the dog was fine as Naruto cough out smokes
________

We finish our missions, Sasuke and Sakura was carry Naruto since he was too exhausted to walk on his own.

"This is what you get for being reckless." Sakura scolded him.

"Honestly Naruto, there was no need to try at showing off." I told him worried.

"Hmph. You're a guy that need help all the time. You're wasting my girlfriend's chakra with all the healing she has to do." Sasuke said.

"Sasuke." I said with a scold tone while slapped his arm softly. He saw my frown and kiss my cheek as an apologize.

Naruto get angry. "SASUKE!" He yelled as he was about to tackle him but was stop by Sakura as she handle out her hand.

"If you're going to go wild anymore, I'm going to finish you off!" Sakura threatening him as Sasuke walk away, pulling me with him.

"Hmm. The teamwork is out of order lately." I heard Kakashi-sensei say.

I agree with you, Kakashi-sensei. I thought.

"Yeah! And you're the one who disrupts our teamwork, Sasuke! You always stick your nose into everything." Naruto told him irritated.

"That's you, idiot. If you don't want to own me anything..." Sasuke said before stop walking. "Become stronger than me." He glance over at Naruto, making me nervous.

I gently put a hand on his arm causing him to look at me and saw my nervous expression, his eyes soften.

"Now, then... Shall we call it quits for today? I have to go submit the mission report now." Kakashi-sensei told us.

"I think that's a good idea. I have to buy some groceries." I said as I pulled out my groceries list.

"Then I'm going home." Sasuke said before looking at me. "Let me walk with you to the market first." I smile and nodded as I wrapped my hand on his arm then we walk away.

"Hey! Sasuke, wait!" We stop at look at Sakura. "Hey, um, hou does strengthening our teamwork now sound?" She asked him sweetly before sending me a smirk but I ignored it.

Sasuke saw it. "You're the same as Naruto. If you have time to mind me, go practice a technique or two. To be honest, your abilities are lower than Naruto's. And I rather spent time with my girlfriend." He told her with glares at her and kissed my cheek before we walk away.

"You didn't have to be so harsh to Sakura, Sasuke." I said to him.

"Hn." Was all I got from him causing me to roll my eyes as we reach the market.

"Anyway, thanks for walking with me, Sasuke." I said waving at him with smile but as I was about to walk away, I was suddenly grab my wrist and pull me back. I gasp in shock as I crash into Sasuke's chest and gently grab my chin and tip it up slightly.

He smirk at me. "You didn't think I would let you go without a kiss now, did you." I blush before y'all when he kiss me.

"Oh my!"

"Awe, isn't that sweet."

"Young love... It's bring backs memory."

My blush darken when I hear the comments from people passing by us. As Sasuke pull back and smirk at my embarrassment before walking away.

After I finish buying my groceries and was on my way home when Konohamaru suddenly run pass me with Naruto and two other kids, away from Sakura who looks angry.

I sigh and made a clone, sending her to take the groceries home while I follow them.

I gasp as Konohamaru slam into someone which cause him to fall backward to the ground. "That hurt." That guy, Konohamaru bump, say as he was dress like a cat and a girl with four pigtail, stand next to him.

"Konohamaru!" Naruto said as he was pick up by the cat guy from the front of his shirt.

I watch carefully what was happening. "That hurt, brat." The cat guy said, tighting his hold causing Konohamaru to gasp.

"Stop it. We're going to get scolded later." The four pigtail girl said to him, annoyed.

"I'm sorry, I was joking around so..." Sakura tried to explain, worried about the whole situation.

"Hey! Let go of that hand!" Naruto demanded to the cat guy, angrily.

"But I want to play around before some noisy people come." He said to the four pigtail girl. Ignoring Sakura and Naruto completely.

"Let go!" Konohamaru demanded as he struggle to get free while kicking him.

"You're very energetic, kid." The cat guy mocked.

Naruto gritted his teeth together as his fist shake slightly. "Why you...!" He shout as he charge to him. However I notice that the cat guy move his fingers and Naruto suddenly fall backward.

I gasp silently. Puppeteer. I thought shocked. "What was that?" Naruto question in shock as he sit up.

The cat guy smirk at us. "Konoha's Genins are weak." He insulted us  causing me to frown at him.

"Konohamaru..." Naruto said worried.

"Konohamaru!" Mowgli and Udom called out scared and worried.

Naruto quickly stoop up. "Hey! If you don't let go of him, you're going to get it from me, you idiot!" Naruto told him while pointing at them, shocking Sakura and me.

Sakura quickly grab Naruto into a headlock, strangle him. "You're the idiot! Don't provoke him!" She whispered to him angrily.

The cat guy look at us with smug. "You piss me off." He lift up his other fist. "I hate short people anyway. And you're so impertinent for someone younger than me." He glares at us. "It makes me want to break you." We gasp in shock.

He four pigtail girl sigh. "I'm not going to be responsible for what you do." She told him.

"After this short kid, the short kid over there is next." He said, pulling his fist back.

Before he could hit Konohamaru. I had teleport in front of him, surprising everyone as I catch his fist and twisted his arm to his back, in a restraining holded causing him to let go of Konohamaru.

Konohamaru quickly run over to Naruto, once he was over I push him away and jump in front of them.

The cat guy glares at me but then his eyes widened as the wind blown through my hair.

Third Person's POV

In everyone's eyes, when the wind blown through Nikki's hair. The sunlight hit her causing it to sparkle around her.

Beautiful... The cat guy thought before he smirk at her.

Nikki's POV

I look at the cat guy confuse when he smirk at me. "Well what do we have here." He walk closer to me. "How about you and me hang out together sometime." He said in a flirting way, making me a little uncomfortable.

"Um..."

As he reach out to touch me. His hand was hit by a pebble causing all of us to turn to where it came from, only to see Sasuke sitting on a tree branch throwing another pebble up and down in his hand. "What do you think you're doing in another's village. And have the nervous to flirt with another man's woman." Sasuke said, glaring at the cat guy.

"SASUKE!" Sakura squeak in joy.

"Another kid that pisses me off..." I heard the cat guy murmured angrily.

Sasuke stop and crush it. "Get lost." He said in a  harsh tone while releasing the dist from the pebble.

This cause Sakura and Moegi to squeak with hearts shape eyes while I sweat drop at them.

Naruto poke his fingers against each other in embarrassment. "Naruto, you're not cool." Konohamaru cried while pointing at Naruto.

Naruto quickly kneel, in front of him. "I would have beaten that guy..." He tried to reason but Konohamaru just huff which angrier Naruto at Sasuke.

"Hey, come down, kid." The cat guy called to Sasuke. "I hate kids like you, who think they're so clever." He took off something his was carrying on his back.

"Hey! You're going to use Karasu?" The four pigtail girl said shocked. That most be his puppet. I thought.

"Kankuro, stop." We all turn to see a guy with red hair, hanging upside-down on the other side of the tree Sasuke was on, shocking me and and Sasuke since I didn't sense him and I could tell that Sasuke didn't either.

"You're a disgrace to our village." The red hair boy said, causing everyone else to gasp in shocking them.

"G-Gaara..." The cat guy, who I guess is Kankuro said nervous.
