Hello DrendeSalkash, this is Mr. Lee. As a fellow Naruto author, I welcome you to ffdotnet :)! Now to get to your story. You got potential to be a great author from looking at this story. It's good for your first fic. But this story has a few flaws that I can't help but express.

1. This story seems a LOT more mature than it should. 12 year olds drinking sake? Hinata and Kiba making out (ROTFLMAO XD! I don't know about that (sniker XD).)? Maybe if they were sixteen I could see it. But them doing this at twelve seems very unrealistic to me.

2. The romance in the story seems VERY rushed and VERY forced, and that is a MAJOR LEAGUE TURN-OFF to me (Naruto and Sakura passionately kissing at twelve? UNREALISTIC!). You could have added so much more detail to this story if you had just slowed down. A simple and chaste first kiss has more meaning than them tongue wrestling each other (This strenghtens the point I made in issue 1.).

3. This isn't an issue, but visioning Tsunade and Jiraiya as a singing pair in an alley just as Sakura is about to leave was truly the cheesiest thing I've ever seen in a romance fic ROTFLMAO XD. Don't worry my friend , I mean that in the nicest way LOL XD.

Now don't get me wrong, I liked your NaruSaku one shot. But you've got to admit, it moved kind of fast and was a bit unbalanced. If you had just slowed down on the romance and added more detail and realism (The more mature and less punchy 2nd Arc Sakura would have been a better choice for your fic. The only time she truly punched him after the time skip was when they reunited. I can't stand 1st arc Sakura x(!), it would have been so much better. But this is your first fic, so you're entitled to make mistakes. Just remember that detail and realism can make or break a story, even an AU one. And in romance, timing is everything. Rushing romance only leads to disaster. This is constructive criticism and should be treated as such. If I offended you or angered you in any way, then I'm truly sorry :(. That is not my intention :(. I invite you to check out my Naruto Flower Tales: Sakura when you have some free time (Don't forget to review :)!). I wish you luck with your future stories on this site my friend ;)! I'll be watching you. Later for now :)!

P.S. Just so you know, I think 'Listen to your heart' is a beautiful song. But honestly, it is the MOST OVERUSED SONG when it comes to romantic anime couples (You should see how many anime couples have that song on Youtube. I've started to hate listening to it LOL XD!). Also, let me give you some advice. I know that you're getting the hang of being an author. But if you want to get more reviews, recognition and fans for your story, then don't say 'who cares' when it comes to them reading and reviewing your stories. Otherwise, they truly won't care and you'll just be wasting your time and all your hard work will be wasted. Take care of yourself and until then, may the gods watch over you my friend :).
