Summary; Sakura repays Greed for his contribution to helping Naruto. With what, you ask? Why, a date, naturally!
Log;
Greed slid down the side of the building Sakura was in, leaping off 2/3 of the way down and landing in a crouched position. He quickly straightened up and walked the rest of the way to her door, before knocking loudly.

"Yo, babe, you in?" he said through the door, "It's me, Greed. It's time for our date, Sakura."

"You can't blame us. It's just like you don't understand our way of ninja. Some things are impossible to understand, from one culture to another.

"Well, you've managed one date. That'll be enough, right?"

"But you guys shouldn't blame ME, either."

"Date's are hard to have just one of, for me."

"Greedy man." She rolled her eyes, and shrugged. "I hope you'll forgive me if this is all I'm giving you."

"For now, it's good. I have a feelin' that one day we'll have an outing again."

He rose from his spot and offered his hand.

"But I've already eaten up enough time from you tonight."

Blinking, she took his hand and sat up. "Really, that's optimistic of you."

She gave him a slight smile. "The food was really good. Do you think I could take some of the left-overs with me?"

"Oh yeah!" he said, running back to gather some transport dishes, "Take all you want."

He began to pile food into the packages and hand them to her.

"That good?"

"It was," she said, nodding as she took the packages. "And there's also a team-mate of mine that hasn't been eating properly lately, so I'm going to hand him these..."

"Ya' need more then?"

He grabbed up several other boxes and started to box up more of the food.

"This is all the stuff that's fit for consumption, but I suggest ya' get it refrigerated quickly. Fish goes bad fast."

"Greed, slow down! That much is enough...Thanks. Again."

Pausing for a moment to look at him, she tilted her head. "You're not that bad, actually. I've been pretty cold to you, huh?"

"Eh, my passion gets the best of me. Guess ya' don't know many humans who act like I do, huh?"

He tied several boxes together and walked toward the door.

"Think nothin' of it."

She let out a tiny laugh. "No, not really."

Putting on her shoes, she stopped by the door. "Thanks for everything...helping me, with the boys."

"Only helped with one, really. Can't say I know the dark-haired one too well."

He opened the door for her, bowing.

"It's been a pleasure, Miss Haruno."

"Oh, he's nice, once you get used to him." Grinning, she decided that he deserved one prize. For all the help he'd turn out to be. Because if it hadn't been for him, she would've lost the boys, and...her brain and logic could shut up for a moment.

Standing on her toes, she pecked his cheek lightly. "Goodnight." Pulling away, she turned and exited the Temple, not before saying, "Don't dare think that was an invitation."

And before he could react, she was out of his grasp.
