Emergency

Dedicated to: Jay-spell for being an awesome inspiration :)

"I'm sorry!"

Glares and snickers.

"Aahhh!"

Bumping into carts and spilling coffee.

Sakura Haruno, esteemed surgeon and doctor, ran wildly through the halls of Konoha Hospital. Pink hair flew out of her bun as she raced down the hallways.

"Sorry ma'am!"

Mean looks.

One of her patients had called for her immediately, implying it was an emergency. And emergencies were never good; There was a chance Sakura could lose her patient.

Sakura could not lose a patient.

Her reputation would plummet, and the backlash from the patient's relatives would overwhelm her with guilt.

Breathing fresh air into her exhausted lungs, Sakura caught sight of her patient's room. Reaching the familiar mint green door, Sakura placed her hand on the steel knob and almost ripped the door off of its hinges. Her viridian eyes darted toward her patient in fear. Is he okay? What's wrong with him? Are his stats okay?

"OH, HI SAKURA-CHAN!"

Her patient was sitting up happily, lazily flipping through TV channels, until finally settling on a ramen food show. He began scratching his leg cast and attempting to peel off his head bandage. Surrounding his bed were trays and spilled soup and porridge. He had refused to eat the hospital food, but his tanned face still had a grin that could rival the sun.

Naruto Uzumaki.

That baka.

"Oh, Sakura-chan what's wrong with your eye?"

Squinting at Naruto threateningly, Sakura gritted her teeth and forced her eye to stop twitching. "You baka..." She said in a condescending, menacing voice. Naruto shrank in fear as Sakura demanded, "What happened that was such an emergency?!" Naruto grinned and answered cheekily, "I got hungry, and they wouldn't give me ramen!" He pouted like a child.

"I know you said I shouldn't eat ramen yet, but you can't just cut me off from my true love!" Naruto whined in a rushed tone. The pink haired doctor leaned down to face Naruto at eye-level and said sweetly, "Naruto......" The blonde grinning patient beamed brightly from ear to ear, "What, Sakura-chan? Wha-" Naruto was cut off by a painful blow to the head.

The blonde whined as he rubbed his throbbing head, "Sakura-channnn, why did you do that? I just wanted some ramen!" Adjusting her bun, Sakura replied,"Naruto, you'll be able to eat ramen in about 4 more days! Can't you wait?!" Naruto sulked miserably, "Sakura-channnn, that's like asking me to stop breathing for 4 days!" Sakura flicked his head affectionately and walked out of the room.

"I'll make it 5 days if you keep this up!" Sakura shouted on the way out.

There was a look of utter horror on the blonde's face.

Naruto Uzumaki.
The blonde knucklehead who was constantly smiling, even when he fell off his motorcycle that rainy night. He had suffered 2 broken ribs, a broken leg, a fractured arm, and a minor concussion. Luckily, Sakura was working late that day. Naruto was taken out of the ER and put into a private room with Hinata Hyuga serving as his nurse.
