Uchiha Sasuke was one who has never gotten sick in his whole life span.

So being cooped up in his apartment did not sit well with him –even though his girlfriend was with him to kill time.

Even so, Haruno Sakura wasn't really doing much help to him other than giving him a major headache with her yapping.

" Sakura…" He groaned, wrapping the layers of blankets tighter as he twisted around in his bed. " Could you please go?"

He didn't need to open his eyes to know she frowned as her words stopped flowing out her mouth. Then there would be a furrow between her eyebrows and soon after a pout. " Why? I'm keeping you company."

His lips twitched into a halfhearted smirk, the almost there smile looped on his face. " You're giving me a headache, Sakura. You're not helping at all –if you are, you would be healing me now."

Sakura giggled.

He felt the side of his bed sunk down at the newly found weight as he shifted a bit to give her some space. She laid down next to him and enveloped her arms around him, squeezing him like a giant teddy bear.

" I would be healing you," She started slowly, as if she were talking to a 6 year old boy. " If Tsunade didn't specifically assign me to not heal you, you'd know I would." There was a slight pause in her teasing voice, and she continued. " Or maybe not. It was your own carelessness that got you into this mess. You should know better than to pick up a fallen senbon from the enemy."

" You wanted a sample of the poison." He stated matter of factly.

" Yes –I mean no! I didn't say that at all! You have no proof to show me too." She retorted, retracting her hand back.

" Oh really? Then I don't suppose you'd recall: Ne ,Sasuke-kun ,if you could take a sample of the enemy's poison it would mean a lot to me." He said, mimicking her voice as he turned around to face her. He felt himself smirking again as he saw her face grew redder and redder as the second passed.

And in some sick way, it occurred to him that he has never spoken so many words in a hour to the same person. Much less to anyone for that matter.

Sasuke would've known that if this was a different scene in the story they were at now, Sakura would've laughed at his bad attempt on trying to sound like her rather than turning as red as a tomato.

Speaking of tomatoes…

" Sakura?"

" Yeah?"

" I want Tomato soup."
