A/N: Hello hello my dear readers! This is my second KakashixSakura fanfict, and I hope you like! Review please! ((They make me update faster... kinda.))
--------------------------
As the years moved forward for Konoha, the members of team seven grew older. Although many problems and missions forced them apart, once a year, they came together to talk about old times and what was going on in their lives.
"Sakura-chan, you're turning twenty-one… What do you want for your birthday?" Naruto asked, his bright yellow hair spiked as always. His goofy smile still the same as ever.
Sakura ran a hand through her shoulder length pink hair, "I don't know… a whole day hotspring visit to tell you the truth."
Naruto nodded and scratched his chin, placing his thumb on one of his whisker-like marks an idea hit his head, "Ah! I bet Jiraiya-sensei could get you a spot on the list! Hell! I bet he could clear the entire place for ya really quick!"
Sakura laughed as she grabbed another cup of sake, "Yeah right, that old pervert would probably watch me bathe for a payment… sheesh. I'll just put my name on the list later. So, you been seeing anyone?"
"Yeah." Naruto smiled and poured himself some sake, "Great sex." Laughing, he got smacked upside the head by Sakura.
"I don't care about that!" She yelled, downing her small cup, she grabbed another. She was really thirsty for some reason.
"Whose the lucky girl?" Kakashi asked, moving a piece across the shogi board he smiled to himself as he looked at the outcome. It wasn't good for Sasuke.
"Oh… uh… hehehe… I promised not to tell." Naruto smiled nervously and avoided Sasuke's gaze.
Sakura caught Sasuke's annoyed look and it hit her, "It's someone Sasuke liked! Isn't it?! Wait… you're not dating me!" Placing a hand over her mouth, she looked over her shoulder and laughed annoyingly, receiving a hit from a pillow delivered from Naruto personally.
"Really, you wouldn't guess who in a million years." Sasuke smirked to himself and moved a piece, capturing one of Kakashi's and making him sulk. Now the tables had turned.
"What?! You know too?! Aw… Now I really want to know… who have you been seeing and or sleeping with Naruto! Do I know her?" Sakura asked, she was lonely and she wanted some details.
Naruto ignored Sakura and turned his attention to the bottle of sake, chugging it down rapidly he ignored her questions she shot at him every second.
Sasuke finished the game with one final move and smiled to himself. Standing up, he walked over to Naruto and grabbed the bottle from him, he had only drank two thirds of it, "I really don't care… you can tell her." Drinking it, he walked into the kitchen and washed his hands as soon as he was finished drinking the bottle.
"I-I don't know how she'll take it…" Naruto smiled and closed his eyes, maybe if he didn't look at her face.
Kakashi got up and walked over to Sakura, sitting down, he poured her and himself some sake and leaned against the wall.
"I really don't care." Sasuke came back and placed his foot on Naruto's back, pushing him down, Naruto's head hit the table making it shake.
Sakura and Kakashi both grabbed the bottle of sake that was falling off the table.
"It's me." Sasuke sat down beside Naruto as Kakashi's head flew back and hit the wall making the window beside him vibrate violently. Sitting forward a bit, he rubbed his head, remaining silent.
"What." Sakura asked, looking over at Sasuke.
"It's me… the 'great sex' as he bluntly put it. Seriously, he's such an idiot." Sasuke shot Naruto a glare before smiling behind his sake cup, "Anyways, changing the subject. I heard you failed your mission Sakura."
"Who doesn't know… it was all over town the moment I got back…" Sakura sighed and leaned against the wall behind her, glancing out the window, she saw the rain pouring outside the dark street. Closing her eyes, she remembered how horrible it felt to come back empty handed. How gut wrenching it was for her to tell her sensei, Lady Tsunade, that she had failed. Opening her eyes, she blinked past the tears of the past and smiled at Naruto's worried look, "Sensei." Turning the attention of the silent room towards Kakashi, she smiled, "How is the new team seven working for you? I heard you have two girls… and a loud boy."
"Oh, yes… my little students. Those girls, I swear. One of them reminds me of Hinata, and the other reminds me a bit of you Sakura… mixed with Tenten. The boy is a breed of his own, really…" Kakashi looked out the window and sighed, "I guess you three can stay the night… I wouldn't want you catching colds." Standing up, he walked towards the bathroom and smiled to himself when he heard his three former students chattering excitedly.
"Maybe he'll take off his mask! Maybe we'll see his face!" Naruto whispered to Sakura whose eyes flew open wide and smiled at the thought of seeing his face.
"That would make my day." Sakura giggled for the images of Kakashi's face started coming to mind, "I wonder if he has a scar…"
"Or horrible teeth." Sasuke wondered.
"Maybe he's missing one!" Naruto added, "And he's embarrassed."
"Or there's a missing lip." Sakura wondered.
"Ewwwwww…" All three of them proclaimed at the image of someone with a missing lip.
"Then he couldn't live up to his legend as the best kisser in the dark!" Naruto exclaimed, killing that theory.
Sakura cleared the table and knocked on Kakashi's door after goofing around with Naruto and Sasuke.
Kakashi slowly pulled open his door, his lower side of his face was covered with his Come come paradise book, "Yes?"
"Could I borrow some clothes? Naruto spilled sake on my shirt and skirt…" Sakura watched Kakashi turn and walk into his closet, he returned with a giant shirt and a pair of shorts. Handing them to Sakura, he wished her sweet dreams and returned to reading his book with the door closed.
After getting changed, Sakura found three pillows and blankets in the closet beside the front door and passed them around. Moving the table out of the way, Sakura made her bed between Sasuke and Naruto, she didn't want to hear any action tonight while falling asleep.
Crawling into her blankets, she slowly drifted off to the much-welcomed sleep as Naruto turned and wrapped his arm around her waist. Smiling, she fell asleep facing Sasuke. He smelled really nice, too bad he was gay.
---------------------
Walking home in the morning rain was interesting. Every time Sakura rounded the corner, she could have sworn someone was watching her… or at least looking at her. She lost count of the times she looked over her shoulder. Walking up the stairs to her little apartment, she opened the door and walked inside. Tomorrow she had work at the hospital. Maybe she would get to fix muscles instead of changing bed sheets. Lying down on her couch, she stared up at the ceiling and sighed, she felt so alone. Rolling onto her side, she closed her eyes and remembered the days where she longed to sleep with Sasuke, and then wake up to a ring on her finger the next morning.
There was only one thing she could do to cheer herself up.
Get active.
And not in the kind of train outside until you drop down totally out of breath active. The kind of active that meant bed, naked, lights off active. Grumbling, she sat up, trying to remember the last time she had felt a guy above her. Naruto's arm didn't count… closing her eyes, they flew open as she smiled, "Kiba! He was good…" He had helped her with Ino's dare of loosing her virginity. Of course, Sakura felt bad for herself for she had been the last girl of her class to loose her virginity. Frowning, she stood up and picked up the phone, dialing Kiba's number, she got a barking answering machine. She hung it up immediately.
"Fine. First man I see at a bar that is available…" She informed the empty room. Rushing to her bedroom, she took a quick shower and dressed in her black short skirt and dark green top. Throwing on her black sandals, she rushed out into the rain, only stopping to grab an umbrella and lock up behind herself.
Rushing into the nearest public bar, she hurried inside, out of the rain. Lee was there. Turning around, she rushed down another block and hurried into a different bar. Sitting down at the counter, she looked around at all her options. Kiba was romancing with some woman, he was out. Shikamaru was married to Ino, he was out. Lee, he was in a different bar, too bad he was so far away, not. Naruto, nope. Sasuke, taken. Shino, "Ew…" And then she saw Genma, drinking with some of his friends, 'He could work.' Making sure her hair was not standing up anywhere, she slowly walked over to his table.
Genma stopped talking when he saw his friend look up from him. His head shot up and he turned to see Sakura standing there looking as pretty as ever, "Ah! Sakura-chan! Lovely seeing you here! Could I buy you a drink?"
"Sure… but just one. I have something I want to ask you."
"Shoot." Genma turned his entire body towards her and smiled, moving the piece of straw around between his teeth as he smiled up at her.
Sakura bent over and whispered something in his ear making the straw droop and fall out of his mouth completely as he gapped up at her. Sakura blushed a bit and raised an eyebrow at him.
"No strings attached?" Genma asked, raising an eyebrow.
"None." Sakura smiled.
Genma stood up, almost knocking over the table. Grabbing Sakura's hand, he zoomed out of the room, refusing to turn to look at his friends or even say goodbye. He had a free ride.
Running through the rain, Sakura let Genma lead her back to her place. Smiling, she blushed as he rushed with her up to her front door, hopping as she took out her key and unlocked the door. As soon as she had it opened he pounced and shut the door behind him.
He had her on the couch in a few strides, his headband was on the floor as well as his jacket. His lips busy kissing hers as her arms helped him remove of his shirt. Kicking off his shoes, he helped her remove her sandals and moved to her shirt.
Sakura smiled as Genma licked her neck and removed of her other articles of clothing. He finished by removing his pants and moving her legs more around his waist, "Sakura… are you sure you want to do this?"
Sakura handed him a small package and nodded, "It's been too long. Besides, I heard you were pretty good at this kind of thing."
"Pretty good… oh… I'll show you pretty good." Smirking, he ripped open the small package with his teeth and moved his hand down beneath her legs and onto something that was hardening just below them. A knock on the door made both of them freeze.
Sakura cursed under her breath and picked up his shirt, throwing it on, she pushed him down onto the couch and placed the pillow over his crotch. Rushing to the door, she opened it a crack and saw an ANBU officer standing at her door.
"Lady Tsunade is requesting a meeting with you. Immediately."
Sakura nodded and shut the door, "I have to go. When I come back though…"
Genma smiled at her, "Babe… no strings attached remember? Maybe some other time though." Walking over to her, he grabbed her and held her close to him, kissing her passionately, he took back his shirt and quickly dressed before leaving her apartment.
Sakura kicked the pillow across the room and growled at the door. Quickly getting dressed, she smiled, "Well, at least I know I'm not pregnant." Laughing at her own little lame joke, she walked outside and hurried with her ANBU escort to the Hokage's office.
-------------
"Sakura. Good to see you. Sit down. I have an assignment to discuss with you."
"I thought we all ready discussed this." Sakura sat down and listened to the ANBU officer leave, shutting the door behind him.
"No. I have another mission for you Sakura. It will redeem your credit. And stop the villagers from talking behind your back about you. I want you to train though. And I'll get you a partner for this mission. You have two days to quickly get into shape."
"What's the mission?"
Lady Tsunade leaned forward and placed her folded hands under her chin, "A scroll that was supposed to be in my library is missing. And there have been reports of its whereabouts. You're to steal it back from the nukenin and report it back to me. You have a week to recover it. Report back here after your training is done. That is all." Waving her hand, she went back to signing paperwork.
Sakura slowly stood up and thanked her, leaving, she screamed cusswords in her head. Instead of training right now, she could have been having the best mind-blowing sex of her life! She had lied to Genma when she said she heard was pretty good. She heard he was one of the best in the villages. And she had him, and he escaped! Even Ino would have winced at the idea of Genma getting away. Quickly grabbing control of herself, she reminded herself she wasn't a slut like her friend Ino and smiled at the idea of Ino frowning at her angrily for calling her a slut. She loved her best friend dearly, but she slept around a bit too much to get back at Shikamaru after a fight. But whatever floats your boat. Ino had a 'You only have one life' kinda personality. Live it and live it big and great.
Grumbling, she walked all the way to the training ground, in the rain. She didn't stop until she realized that the training ground was being used by none other then Kakashi and his little team. Walking over to a tree, Sakura leaned against it and watched Kakashi teach.
"All you have to do is concentrate a steady flow of chakra to your feet and climb up the tree like so." Kakashi closed his eyes and concentrated chakra and walked up the tree, "Concentrate too little and you'll slip and fall. Concentrate too much and you'll bounce off the tree… Sakura? What a pleasant surprise. I'll be done in a minute and you can have to grounds to yourself."
Sakura smiled, "It's okay Kakashi-sensei. You can take your time, I'll just use this side over here. If you need anything…" Turning around she glared at the post, imaging the stupid mask of the officer that ruined her good time. Sakura walked up to it and punched it hard, it cracked and she froze as she heard the amazed gasps of the little students behind her, "Oh… oops…" Standing up, she smiled and placed her hand on the wood." Closing her eyes, she quickly repaired the giant crack and turned around, "I'll just… work over here." Walking over to the tree she was originally standing against, she smiled as an idea hit her, remembering she had a pair of shorts under her skirt, she glanced over at Kakashi, who saw her glance and smiled beneath his mask.
Pulling out his book, Kakashi slid down the tree and walked away form his teammates, "Go ahead and attack Sakura, you're still no match for me."
"Riiiiight." Sakura laughed and placed a hand on her hip, "Watch and learn kids. This is how you beat an old man like him." Flipping her wet hair back, she pulled out two kunai and rushed towards Kakashi, who dodged her swipe.
"Nice…" The boy scoffed and crossed his arms, "I could do that."
Throwing the kid a smirk, Sakura turned and threw the kunai at Kakashi. Rushing towards him, she pulled out two more and swiped at him as he dodged her other two weapons that had flown at him.
Kakashi's eye widened in surprise as two clones appeared behind him from the kunai and attacked him. Putting away his book, he grabbed the wrists of the two clones and flipped behind them, kicking them, he placed his hands on the ground and flipped once more, landing a good ten feet away from Sakura. "Nice attack. But still not good enough."
Sakura smirked and rushed forward, concentrating chakra to her feet, she jumped over his head and placed her feet on the tree, standing, she swiped at him.
Kakashi turned and blocked her attack with a star and took out another, throwing it at her, he watched as she turned into a log. Turning around, he looked for Sakura, and couldn't find her.
"Whoa!!!" One of the girls yelled and nudged her friend, "Check her out! She's going to do it!"
Kakashi raised an eyebrow at his student and froze when he felt a kunai at his throat.
"You give up?" Sakura breathed into his ear.
"How did you…"
"I was the log." Smiling, she pulled him towards her and smiled when he chuckled, "So, about me not being able to beat you…"
"That must be all that sexual energy pent up… hm… interesting. You should be interrupted more before going off on a mission. You'd probably do good." Kakashi muttered so his students wouldn't hear before he too turned into a log making Sakura scowl. Jumping to the ground, Sakura rolled as Kakashi's fist landed where she had been a second before. Getting up, she jumped over a fallen tree and stepped back onto the lake. Placing chakra onto her feet she ran backwards over the water, blocking every punch Kakashi sent her way.
"I don't know why they let you on ANBU… I don't notice anything different about you Sakura-chan." Kakashi smiled as he punched her shoulder sending her flying back.
Twirling in the air, she landed on her feet and glared at Kakashi, "Really. Well, Neji praised me a few times. That should say something."
"Yeah, he's grown soft."
Sakura twitched and cracked her knuckles. The rain poured down on them and she frowned, "You just insulted my captain. I'm going to have to kick your ass a hundred times harder then I would have just done." Pointing at him, she screamed as she rushed forwards and tackled him.
Kakashi had been expecting a kick and was standing in such a manner that he was taken totally off guard by the tackle, sending them splashing into the lake bellow them.
Sakura grabbed Kakashi and wrestled with him as they began to float back to the surface.
Kakashi grabbed the pink haired kunoichi and threw her out of the water. Sakura landed on her feet and looked around her. Frowning through the rain, she pulled out a kunai and closed her eyes, smiling, she saw a bubble behind her and awaited his signature move. Sure enough, his hand shot up and grabbed her ankle, pulling her down. However, Sakura had placed so much chakra on her foot at that time he pulled down, she had only budged a bit.
Kakashi attempted another tug, but she didn't move. Frowning, he stabbed her ankle making her cry out.
"So you're playing like that!" She screamed as he pulled her down. Grabbing his neck, Sakura sliced his jacket off and sliced his arm open. Kakashi sliced her wrist and they began the game of slicing whatever they could find.
As they floated back to the surface, Sakura gasped for air and kicked Kakashi hard in the stomach, knocking the air out of him. Grabbing his hair, she pulled him up out of the water and slugged him hard in the stomach. Letting go of him, she walked away and sat on the shore where the worried students were standing.
Panting, she smiled at the three of them, "That's how the big kids play hard core." Sitting down, she placed her hands on her cuts and healed them instantly.
Kakashi slowly trudged onto the shore, glaring ahead of him, he walked past his students, "We'll train tomorrow kids."
The three students glanced at one another before taking off. They knew an angry Kakashi was a cruel Kakashi. And a cruel Kakashi punished you with torturous little tasks.
Kakashi turned to look at Sakura who was slowly standing up, "Now that they're gone, I'm not showing you any mercy Sakura."
"Funny, I was just about to say that." Sakura rushed forwards and kicked at him, he jumped over her leg and pounced on her, pushing her to the ground as he made to slice at her throat.
Sakura threw him off of her as she dodged the swipe and returned the favor by punching the wet ground causing the ground to split and mud to sink in. The cracked ground turned into quick sand in a few places. Jumping up, she dodged Kakashi's attack and sliced at him with a throwing star, "How did you know I was interrupted…"
"Well, I saw you two rush out of the bar on my way here. And judging by the pace he was running, you promised him something. Not that I care…" Dodging a swipe he smiled, "And judging by the way you're glaring at me and everything around you, you got interrupted and he had to leave." Kakashi raised an eyebrow as Sakura managed to punch his arm sending him scooting back in the mud. His ankle hit a mud hole and he began to sink. Grabbing Sakura, he brought her with him.
The entire time they quickly sunk, Sakura was thinking of all the fun ways to smoother Kakashi once they were in there. However, a second later, she hit her head on a tree root and passed out.
----------------
Sakura choked as hot air came into her lungs. Turning, she coughed up mud and emptied the contents of her stomach. Panting, she looked up to see Kakashi pulling up his mask, his worried eye gazing down at her. As he came into focus, his worried gaze melted into relief.
Sakura blushed as she slowly wiped the saliva from her cheek and sat up. Kakashi had just… blushing more, she blinked up at him.
"Keep looking at me like that and I'll start blushing." Kakashi stood up and smiled down at her, "I enjoyed sparing with you Sakura. Lets do it next time it's not raining." Turning around, he slowly walked back to the village.
Sakura quickly got to her feet and rushed over to him. Wrapping her arms around his back she hugged him tightly, "Thank you…" She mumbled into his mud covered jacket.
Kakashi nodded and allowed her to hug him. Slowly Sakura stood away from him and cleared her throat, "Please let me heal your wounds sensei."
Kakashi nodded quietly.
Sakura slid her hand under the back of his jacket and shirt and placed her open palm on the warm large back of Kakashi. Feeling him tense bellow her touch, she closed her eyes and sent her chakra into his body, spreading to his wounds, she healed them and smiled when he sighed outwardly and relaxed considerably.
"Thank you Sakura-chan…" Kakashi waited for her to move her hand out of his jacket before he left. Waving at her without turning around, he placed his other hand in his pant pocket and walked home to take a shower.
Sakura smiled and walked home to shower as well.
