Summery: Sai can think of more than one way to make a woman blush. Especially Sakura, now that they're trapped in the elevator together…I wonder what will happen? Lemons - that's what! sakXsai

. . : Elevator Love : . .

Part One

The air was hot and musty, sweat dripped down the Uchiha's forehead as well as the mirrors that surrounded the inside walls of the moving lift. He and Sakura Haruno stood silently beside each other, suspiciously out of breath.

He didn't seem that into it today.

Sakura thought with disappointment, as she eyed him slowly with her side vision. Sasuke continued to stand still, careful not to shatter his cool sense of manner.

I mean, we were in a lift! That's got to make things just a tad more exciting, right?

"Sasuke…" she leaned against him, willing to try anything to find out what was on his mind. He cringed at the sudden contact between his and her skin.

"H-hn?" the sound left his lips in a strangled fashion.

"What's on your mind?" she lifted herself and whispered in his ear. But he did not respond for the elevator had stoped, and the doors opened, revealing a very pale and bored looking Sai. Seeing this as the only chance of escape, Sasuke dashed forward.

"Sai" he said in a rush as he passed by.

"Sasuke" he greeted him smoothly as Sasuke barley made it through the closing doors.

"S-SASUKE?!" she stamped her foot in protest, desperately pushing the 'open' button so she could run after him. But it was no use. She heard a faint snigger behind her. She flicked her head abruptly towards the origin of the noise. Her eyes shooting poison.

"DAMN YOU SAI!" she spat at him, her fists clenched and her teeth bearing. He just stood against the wall coolly, with that insufferable smirk plastered across his face. "WHY DOESN'T THIS WORK!?!" she cried, repeatedly hitting the button until it caved in and her fingers went right through the plastic. Her eyes widened, and tears streamed down her face in defeat.

"Oops" Sai muttered from behind.

"SHUT-UP" she yelled, shaking her fists and hiding her embarrassment. "Why did Sasuke run off in such a rush?! He hadn't even answered my question!" she muttered to herself.

"He obviously ran off to see Ino again, for the fifth time this week." Sai said "Didn't get any sleep last night…with all the noise they were making…" he sighed in annoyance. Sakura turned to look at him, her eye brows raised, her fist clenched, her breath caught in her throat. "Oh, I'm sorry; I thought that question was directed at me". Sakura tried to breath normally, but couldn't.

Sasuke…Ino…Ino…sasuke…UP ALL NIGHT…NOISES!!!??!!!???!?!!

It took Sakura moment to suppress her anger. For she didn't want Sai to suspect anything. Actually, correction, she didn't want Sai to realise how incredibly STUPID she was to get involved with a man who she thought deep inside truly loved her.

"Hey, why is it so hot and steamy in here?" he asked looking around the room and frowning in confusion as he analysed the condensation dripping off the mirrors. It was only until his eyes laid on the pink haired konoichi and her state of appearance did his eye brows rise in realisation.

"Oh."

"I'TS NOT WHAT YOU THINK!!!" she argued, but Sai rolled his eyes.

"Please. You should look at yourself in a mirror, ugly" A sweat drop fell from Sakura's head. "Your hair is tangled, your shirt it partially ripped, and your panties are lying over there in the corner." He pointed them out behind her. She blushed furiously, only realising until then.

"Damn you Sai. I swear on my grave that I will haunt you and your children if this situation kills me!" she scowled. Sai's eyes closed as she bent over to pick up her underwear.

"Put them on before I die now" he muttered. But as Sakura wriggled to pull them up, the lift lurched violently and she fell to the floor with them halfway up her thighs. The lights flickered a few times before going out completely.

"I don't believe it"

"What is it? What's happening?!" Sakura managed to stagger to her feet.

"I never would have thought your ugliness could have caused a lift to commit suicide"

"WHAT?!"

WHY?! OH KAME WHY DO I HAVE TO BE STUCK IN HERE WITH HIM?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!

"I'm not that bad…" he muttered.

"Oh, I said that out loud?"

"Yeah"

Sakura giggled dumbly, thankful that he couldn't see her beetroot coloured face through the darkness.

Sai exhaled loudly. "Well…I guess we're stuck here"

A/N: BWAHAHAHA! They are now stuck! Its amazing how short in time I managed to conjure this story up. Tell me if you like/dislike, because I would appreciate being recognised as a good or bad (preferably good) writer.
