What?! Of course I'm Kishi Masashimoto!! Creator of… um… Nay-roo-toe! --yea, that's it…--

Summary: A collection of phone conversations between Sasuke and Sakura and what happened after they took place. (SASUSAKU).

--NYC Version--

"Hello?"

"Hi Sasuke-kun!"

"Hn…"

"Aw, Sasuke-kun! You don't sound happy to hear from me!"

"Would it surprise you if I said I wasn't?"

"No, not really. But I know you'd be lying. Anyway, I was wondering if you could come pick me up, Sasuke-kun."

"Um, why? Did you get lost again?"

"Well, yes, kind of… I'm somewhere in the Wall Street Area, At least that's what the map says… and I'm by some weird brass bull… "

"Sakura, it's nighttime. Why in the heck are you even outside?! Especially with a map!! Do you know how stupid that is?!"

"Not really, Sasuke-kun. Why?"

"Sakura, just… what street are you on?"

"I don't know, Sasuke-kun. I can't see a street sign."

"You just said you had a map!"

"I know, but it's really dark and the writing is too small to read…"

"Ok, let me get this straight. You're in New York City, in the Wall Street area, alone, at night, and there isn't any light nearby?"

"Yep!"

"Sakura… just stay where you are, I'll find you."

"Ok, Sasuke-kun!"

"Oi, Sakura…. You're so gonna get it when I get there."

"Why, Sasuke-kun?"

"Sakura, just… ugh. How many times have I told you to not go out ANYWHERE in the big city at night?!"

"Hmm… 10.. 11... 13 times, Sasuke-Kun!"

"You sound proud."

"Oh, do I?"

"Stop acting so innocent! Do you know how much you freak me out when you do stuff like this?!"

"Aww, Sasuke-kun, you DO care!"

"Hn…"

"Oh, and Sasuke-kun…"

"What?!"

"Oh… you sound annoyed with me…"

"…What is it, Sakura?"

"I'm not gonna tell you now!"

"Sakura…"

"Oh! I see your car! You're driving over the speed limit, aren't you?"

"Shut up."

--(Sakura hangs up because Sasuke has pulled up)--

"Sakura... get in the car." Sasuke said, slowing to a stop beside her.

"OK, Sasuke-kun! Wow, you were really worried for me, weren't you?" Sakura said, sliding into the passenger side of the Aston Martin.

"Hn!" he grumbled, speeding away from the gang-infested areas of New York.

"Admit you were scared." Sakura chided, setting her hand down lightly on the center console and smiling at him.

He glanced at her and his expression softened.

"I... was worried about you. A lot."

"A lot?" Sakura asked, smiling wider.

"Yes." Sasuke answered, setting his hand down gently on hers.
