D: All right guys you know the drill! If I was Kishi I would be rolling around in a pool of cash. NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM!

Sleeping with Naruto.

Chapter 1 Spooning Naru/Saku

Spooning, one of the most comfortable and intimate positions two people can be in. It is warming and protective. Two people should only spoon so long as they know the relationship with the other inside and out.

"AAAAAGH!" Sakura screamed into the woods. She knew something had been wrong when her bag felt lighter that morning on the way to her mission, but she ignored it and passed it off as she had gotten stronger since her last mission… which was 3 days ago. "Stupid, stupid, stupid!" Sakura muttered to herself. All the while Naruto stood next to the tent she had just put up and poked at it with his foot.

"Ah Sakura-chan it's not that bad…"

"Not that bad?! It's pouring down raining and we have a one man child tent with Scooby Doo on it, I FAIL TO SEE HOW IT IS NOT THAT BAD!" Sakura yelled as she started towards him, possibly to strangle him, but in her process she fell out of step and fell in a huge muddy puddle. Naruto could have sworn he saw steam coming from her ears.

"I still don't understand why we have that one in the first place," Naruto mused to himself as he gave it one last poke.

"The point is one of us is going to catch pneumonia and be out of commission for a week," Sakura said as she climbed back up to her feet, she was shaking with frustration now.

"Why?" Naruto asked dumbly as he examined the tent.

"BECAUSE IT'S A ONE MAN TENT!" She yelled as she threw her arm pointing at the Scooby Doo menace.

"Oh, well you should probably get it because you're the medic-nin and you could at least heal me or numb me so we can make it back to Konoha," Naruto rationalized against himself. One thing he did not want was a sick, grumpy, half-conscious Sakura… that would give her clear ground to beat the living day lights out of Naruto.

Sakura looked through her pack for anything that could solve this problem. "Well I have a tarp if you want to make a tent out of that some how," she tried, "And you're the one that brought a sleeping bag so you should be warm."

"I can do that, plus I'm really great at sleeping anywhere, you know that," Naruto confirmed and gave a grin.

Sakura rolled her eyes; she was so annoyed with herself that she could hardly bring herself to smile at Naruto's antics.

"Ok, well we should try and sleep now, get up early and get back as early as possible."

"Sounds good, Night Sakura-chan."

"Good night Naruto," She tried to say nicely, and gave a forced smile to the man.

Throughout the night Naruto soon found out that he was very wrong about being able to sleep anywhere. Sleeping in the wet mud made him feel like he was going freeze and wind easily blew the rain into Naruto's small tarp shelter.

"Ugh," he spat in disgust; he was utterly uncomfortable and cold.

Sakura could not get any sleep as well; she had thought it was going to be a very warm night out and decided not to pack sleeping bags, just waste of space when you have a tent. Instead it was 40 degrees outside. That all added up with the guilt that Naruto was outside, freezing in the rain added up to her not being able to sleep. She examined the tent and decided that squeezing two adults in could be insane but also possible.

She poked her head out into the rain to examine Naruto and see if he had gotten any sleep. Instead she just saw a huddle mass shaking insanely.

"OI! Naruto! I have an idea," Sakura yelled to the huddled mass, "Bring your dry clothes and try to not get your sleeping bag wet!" Naruto craned his neck up shaking off his hypothermic state and looked towards where he saw some form of pink. He ran towards the tent and stood in front of her.

"S-s-so what's the p-plan?" Naruto stuttered from the shivering.

"Hurry up and undress outside, give me your dry clothes and sleeping bag, and for all of God's sake keep your boxers on," Sakura said hastily.

Naruto did not even question; he threw his dry clothes at her and stripped down to his blue boxers with Ramen bowls dancing across the cloth. He stood outside in the rain with only his boxers and yelled to her, "o-ok… next part of the p-plan?"

"Oops that's it, you standing naked in the freezing rain, while I take advantage of having more warm dry clothes," Sakura called from inside the tent.

"S-SAKURA-Ch-chAAAAN!" Naruto whined as he poked the tent with his foot again.

"I'm just kidding hurry up and get in here, try not to get water inside," Sakura said quickly as she unzipped the tent and crawled into a dry pink towel. "Hurry up and try yourself off," Sakura continued as she moved her hands through the towel crazily trying dry his hair.

"Ouch, Sakura-chan," Naruto said as he zipped the tent up behind him. The tent was just big enough for both of them to sit Indian style across from each other; he looked around and only now could appreciate how small the tent was. His head was already hitting the roof of the tent by just sitting up right.

"So what's this plan of yours," he decided to ask.

"Put your clothes on," She said as she shoved the bundle into his arms, closing her eyes and blushing.

"Ah fine," he said playfully as he climbed through his long sleeved shirt and shoved his legs into his pants. "So… are we just going to try sleeping sitting up… because I have to tell you it turns out that I can't sleep anywhere at anytime." Naruto informed her of his new revelation.

"Ok… ok, well," Sakura said as she stared down at her hands as they fiddled around. "What I was thinking was," her face became beat red, "we could just sleep next to each other."

"Oh well yea, but aren't we going to be really close?"

"Do you want to be in here or not?" Sakura retorted as she threw a death glare at the boy.

"Y-yes Sakura-chan," replied hurriedly. The two of them stayed sitting up for a couple more moments in awkward silence.

"D-does this mean we're going to be sleeping in one sleeping bag?" he said carefully.

"Yes." Sakura said trying to understand why he couldn't just let it go and not make this anymore awkward.

"All right well I'm going to go to sleep not, or try to," Sakura replied as she slowly lowered her body and curled it into the fetal position into the sleeping bag. Naruto watched her for a moment and then slowly followed in suit only having his back turned to her back.

It took them 5 minutes to realize that if they were going to be stubborn like this then they were going to be stubborn like this frozen. Naruto didn't dare ask what was on his mind though. He was not about to be kicked on into the rain tonight. Sakura contemplated killing Naruto and climbing into his stomach like she had seen in the movies… later decided that she may regret it in the near future.

"N-Naruto…" Sakura shivered.

"Yea?"

"Ok, good you're awake too."

"You just someone to suffer with you."

Sakura thought about his statement, "Yes, I do."

"GAH! Sakura-chan I'm cold."

"Yea I am too… ok so new idea…" Sakura began.

"You're not allowed to kill me Sakura," Naruto stated as he turned his head to meet his friend's green eyes, he had seen that movie with her the night before.

"I contemplated that but how about we truce, that what ever happens on this trip will not leave this tent," Sakura said.

Naruto sat their silently and thought about it, "wait so I can't go bragging about that I slept really close to you to Kiba or…"

"DO YOU WANT TO FREEZE?!" Sakura screamed at the boy, cutting him off.

Naruto's eyes widened and he began to try and regain his hearing, "n-no Sakura-chan, I don't,"

"Then pinky promise."

"Fine, I pinky promise," Naruto replied. The two shook pinkies.

Sakura sighed and murmured some inaudible words.

"What?"

"weshuspoo," was all Naruto heard that time.

"Sakura you're mumbling, I can't understand,"

"WE SHOULD SPOON."

"Oh well that makes more sense than weshouspoo," Naruto said, and then all of a sudden it registered. "T-that sounds like a good plan Sakura-chan."

"Don't make this more awkward," Sakura said, she was sounding very annoyed now. She flipped over just as Naruto had flipped over and they hit heads.

"GAH! What are you doing?!" Sakura said as she threw her hands to her head.

Naruto rubbed his forehead awkwardly as he told her," I was going to ask you the same thing."

"I was going to spoon with you but you flipped over," Sakura stated.

"What? But that would make you the big spoon! I want to be the big spoon!"

"You're being sexist! I will be the big spoon."

"NO! SAKURAAA-CHAAAAAAN it's the man's duty to be the big spoon!"

"WHY?!"

"Because the big spoon is holding the little spoon," Naruto explained. Sakura smacked her forehead loudly.

"Naruto, I'm being the big spoon."

"Sakura-chan, I'm supposed to protect yooooouu though remember? The big spoon is the protective one!"

"It's also the strong one!" Sakura argued.

"I refuse to lose my utter manly-ness and be the small spoon."

"And I refuse to be the small spoon and be inferior!"

"GAH SAKURA-CHAN PLEASE? How about we'll switch half way through the night, we really just need to get warm."

"Fine," she grumbled and conceited and flipped round in the sleeping bag. This was getting difficult. Once Sakura was flipped around she threw her back into his stomach and folded her knees to over his. Naruto threw his arm over her hip awkwardly and threw his other arm under her neck. Sakura sighed, though she was a lot warmer now. Naruto was beyond himself at that moment. He was so excited, but trying to control his breathing so that it wouldn't sound too loud. Sakura was rigid and uncomfortable, ever muscle in her body was tense and she began to notice her breathing too.

"Damn it!" Sakura yelled as she tried to loosen up her muscles and get comfortable, "Why the hell are we like this, I can tell you're all up tight too." Sakura directed her question towards the blond.

"Because we've never spooned before," Naruto answered.

"Don't put me in the category with you!"

"So you've spooned before?"

"No…"

Naruto gave a childish smile; he was her first spooning partner as well. "Well we should just get over it and sleep. We're just spooning." Naruto said as he rearranged his left arm under his head instead. "I mean its not like we're strangers, we've known each other since we were kids and we've been on a team for four years. Plus, maybe this is different for you, but who else would you feel more comfortable spooning with? And don't answer Ino."

Sakura thought about it, if it were Sasuke, it would be extremely awkward, considering he was a traitor and still not part of the leaf. Kakashi? Sakura nearly gagged, hot or not, she was not one to fantasize about older men that had a porn fetish. Sai? …. Self explanatory, anyone who called her ugly was not allowed to spoon with her… there had to be written law some where… her and Ino would have to make a list.

"You're right she decided, there is no one else I'd rather be with in here. Good night Naruto." Sakura said not fully understanding what she had just said.

"Good night Sakura-chan," Naruto replied as both of them became comfortable and fell asleep, both had giant grins across their face.

It was one of nicest sleeps either of them had ever had.

D: So much cuteness you can't even DEAL with it. hahaha. I did repost this one, and this is just going to be purely NaruSaku from now on. Sorry about my weirdness.

This Idea originally stemmed from my friends and I talking about the "official unofficial Dating Laws" They made it up, but I loved the idea of connecting it with Naruto. There are some made up words that are coming up.

PS and Yes… I have had the whole big spoon little spoon arguement.
