Naruto has protected Sakura so many times, and Sakura understands that. In shippuden, Sakura begins to start to admire Naturo, and care about him a lot more. For example, when Naruto get's hurt. She rush's to is aid and tries her very best to heal him. Even the Captain, notice's that Sakura has feeling for Naruto.
Also, Saskue could care less about Sakura, every single time, he hurts her, and who's there to comfort her? That would be Naruto. HE IS ALWAYS THERE FOR HER.
