Naruto: Love Songs and Ladies by Maldoror

Love Songs and Ladies (Team 7 | PG | 4,243 words): Team 7 has to escort a princess, who decides to have a Forbidden Romance with one of her protectors. It is so funny while also being in character. And the princess is amusingly oblivious while not being annoying.

Excerpt:
"I hadn't even noticed - the way Sasuke always picked a fight with Naruto, especially if I'm talking with him. His attitude this afternoon. The-" she sniffled "-the woodpile and- Oh." She sniffled again.

"Look, don't worry about it-"

"Don't worry about it?" Minako sniffled. "But it's so tragic!"

"...Tragic?"

"That he's in love with me too! To think that I've given my heart to Naruto, his best friend- oh- no wonder he's been a bit mean to me these last two days, he's fighting his own heart! He-"

Minako would have elaborated, but Sakura made a very strange and rather unladylike sound deep in her throat and then swung towards Kakashi-san, who appeared to be trying to hide his entire face behind his small book.
