Fuchsia, Glitter, and Rhinestones
"You're going to do that to an injured man, Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked, scratching the back of his head nervously. Sakura unscrewed the black plastic tooblike lid and leaned over the hospital bed.
"He's asleep. Besides, a little nail polish never hurt anybody."
"That loud fuchsia might, though," Kakashi mused, leaned against the window frame. Sakura ignored him and went about her business, coating Uchiha Sasuke's nails in a thick, dark pink lacquer, smiling all the while. Naruto even suspected he heard a little humming ditty drift from her curved lips. When she was finished with the second coat, she held Sasuke's hand in her own, blowing gently on the nails. With one hand, she dug around the pocket of her medic skirt and brandished a second bottle.
"Sakura-chan...?"
"Glitter!" she said, answering Naruto's unasked question. Her grin was frighteningly evil. She unscrewed the cap and began another brushing excursion.
"Despite the fact," Kakashi started, breaking into Sakura's now-very-audible hum, "that he betrayed us, left us for four years, was brought back kicking and screaming until the Godaime stuck a sedative into his veins--"
"You forgot the whole leaving me on a concrete bench part," Sakura sang (a little too cheerfully).
"... That too. Aside from all that, do you really think he deserves this?"
Sakura screwed the cap back on and turned, smiling at Kakashi."Would you like me to do yours too, Sensei?"
Kakashi vanished in a puff of smoke.
"Well, he got on my nerves, mentioning all the crap Sasuke's done," Sakura said, musing to herself. "But now that I remember it all... Naruto. Hand me those rhinestones."
"No, Sakura-chan! A man has to keep some of his pride!"
... Or that's what he would have said if Sakura didn't have that scary dark aura oozing from her. Besides... Sasuke did kinda deserve it. Naruto cleared his throat. "Pink or purple?"
Sakura's grin widened. "Good boy."

I posted this to my writing journal as well. There, I've also posted the MMV that I was inspired by. If it so pleases you, it would be absolutely be amazing if you'd follow the link on my profile and check it out. I've got some more stuff there that I haven't posted to ff.n. Comments are as lovely as reviews. Also (forgive me for continuing), if you have any random plot bunnies you don't plan to write out, will you please take them to the above-mentioned journal? I'm in dire need. I can't find any good plot bunnies anywhere. -grumbles-
So! Anywho! Thanks for reading! Reviews, again, are lovelovelove.
