Sakura woke up to the sound of someone knocking on her door. She laughed and rolled over to get closer to Kakashi. Instead of his hard chest, she felt just pillow. Leaning up on her elbow she saw what she already knew was true.
Kakashi was gone. She guessed he had left sometime during the night, rolling flat on her back she wondered where it would go from here. They had a mission tomorrow and that means them being together or a while. She didn't think he wanted a relationship out of a one nightstand but she didn't think he would just leave.
Not that she cared, I mean this was just a hook up to her too. It just so happened to be with her Sensei, also the fact he was older then her didn't help much either.
"Fuck me." Sakura said as she flipped out of her bed and pulled on a new bra and underwear. The knocking had stopped but she walk to the door and opened it anyway. She was surprised to find Sai on the other side of the door.
"Hey Sakura." He said walking in. Sakura shook her head. It was true that Sai had come a long way from the emotionless asshole that he used to be but he still had a lot to learn about people. Like just walking in to a person's apartment for example.
"Sai what are you doing here?" She asked grabbing a tee shirt and pulling it over her head. Sai smiled and looked out her window.
"You know how Kakashi and I train every morning?" He asked sitting down on the arm of her couch. Sakura nodded and Sai went on.
"He didn't show up today." He looked her up and down. "You wouldn't know where he possibly could be do you?"
Sakura didn't know if Sai knew what had happened last night but there was no way that she was going to be the one to tell him.
"No. I don't, just as long as he's here for the mission I don't care." She said acting nonchalant. Walking over she started to fix her some coffee. But she still herd the small chuckle that came from Sai.
"Right well, if you do see him, tell him I was looking for him." He said as he walked back to the door. He looked her up and down once more. Then turned and left.
Sakura leaned on her counter waiting for her coffee; she had a feeling that this was going to end up badly. And as she as look a sip of her drink she wondered just how bad.

Kakashi finally made it back it his apartment, he closed the door behind him and walked to his bedroom. How could he have let all this happen? He had fucked his student for god sake. He fucked her hard. He should be in some kind of jail, or a mental hospital.
He had to get his mind off what happened. So just as quick as he had come in, he changed and went right back out the door. Running always helps him to clear his mind, so he went to the training grounds. A small path went through the woods then back around. It was maybe four miles; just a quick run was all he really need anyway.
He stretched his legs out behind him as he made it to the start of the path.
Ok once I am off this path, all the thoughts about what happened last night will be out of my mind.
He nodded; agreeing with his inner thought and then took off into a speedy jog.
Ok, one she could even think of this as a mindless hook up. I mean kids did that these days. They never were in real relationships anymore. She could have already forgotten about the sex, he doubted it, but it could happen.
Then she could always thing that this meant more than it did. What if she thought that he was in love with her? How could he tell her otherwise? Did she like him? What would happen if he broke her heart? God he couldn't do that to her. Nevertheless, Sakura was a grown women she could handle it. Who says she even loves him in the first place?
"Loves?" Kakashi repeated to himself.
Why did he think love? No there was defiantly no love there. He had never known a woman to love him. He liked it that way, they all lusted after him but his indifferent personality kept them from wanting more. Not that he ever felt something like that for anyone, it was a two way street. They lusted after him, and he fucked them. Simple.
God this wasn't working. He wasn't solving anything. How could one night cause so many problems. He didn't think he could handle his Sakura being upset with him but then again…
"Wait my Sakura?" he repeated his thought again. God this needed to stop.
That's it he was done guessing. He knew what he had to do, just go to Sakuras apartment and tell her that this meant nothing. It just happened. No strings attached. Nope. So as he finished his run he did the hand sign and appeared in front of Sakuras door.
Should he knock? I mean he had already seen her completely naked. So whats the worst he could walk in on right?
Knock Knock
Kakashi waited for her to open the door. When she did he gave her an eye crinkling smile and stepped in.
"Sakura."
She looked puzzled. "Kakashi? Wait why does everyone thing it's ok to just walk into my apartment today?"
"Why who else was here?" he asked sounded a little more worried then he should have.
Sakura smiled. "Sai? You guys train every morning. Did you really forget?" She walked back over to her table and sat down. She picked up her book and went back to reading. "Wow Kaka sensei you really are getting old."
Kakashi resented that fact. It was the third time that someone had called him old in the last twenty four hours.
"Hm. No. I didn't feel much up to a spar." He said leaning on the wall.
"I can imagine. You must have gotten up early to escape without me noticing." Sakura said with a small laugh.
"That's actually why I'm here. Sakura, what happened last night, it was just emotions getting out of control. I don't want you to think…"
Sakura cut him off, "Kakashi do you think that after one night of sex that I expect you to confess your love to me?" She laughed and walked over to put her cup in the sink. "Please Kaka Sensei. I've done this before. I know how these things go." She turned around resting her elbows on the counter.
"Hmm, not that I would mind doing it again, but nothing more than casually flings." She said with a smirk.
Kakashi almost fell down on the spot. How was it possible that he had known the coolest women alive and hadn't even known it. He let himself chuckle out loud before he answered her.
"I would like that very much." He said and walked over to stand in front of her. "But next time let's not get started by me almost killing a man."
Sakura laughed, "Aww but that was the best foreplay I've ever had."
"Oh sweet Jesus, this is going to be fun." Kakashi said rubbing his forehead.
"You know what I think is fun?" She moved over to the door to the hallway. "Showers." She winked back at him and started to walk to her bathroom.
Kakashi fallowed….of course.
He popped his head threw the door just in time to see Sakura's shirt being pulled over her head.
"You're trying to kill me aren't you?" Kakashi asked half serious.
Sakura smiled and laughed. "No," she slipped her finger in her underwear and pulled them down letting them fall to the floor, Then did the same to her bra. She walked over to Kakashi and pressed herself to him. "But now I am." She laughed.
Kakashi closed his eyes and let his hand trail down her spine, causing her to shiver. He stopped as his hands cupped her ass.
"Then please let me return the favor." He said with a smile and picked her up and walked over to the shower.

"What do you think is taking him so long?" Naruto asked throwing another rock at the large tree they were sitting under.
Sai just shrugged, leaven Sakura to answer the impatient orange ninja.
"You know how he is. Kakashi will be late to his own funeral." Sakura joked. But in all seriousness he was very late. It was already 8:30. He had told them to be here at 7:40.
"Well I say we leave without him." Naruto grumbled.
"Yeah Naruto, that would be smart. Leave on the mission without our captain. Nice." Sai said rolling his eyes.
"It just a mission to the border and back, really how hard can it be?" Naruto grumbled.
Sakura shook her head. She had heard that before. But before she got to remind Naruto of all the past times she was interrupted by Kakashi appearing in the tree above them.
"Are you all ready to go?" He asked smiling his eye crinkling smile.
"We've been here for an hour!" Naruto said pointing a finger at the lazy ninja.
"No I've been here for awhile and I didn't see you guys." Kakashi said as he jumped down and walk out the main gates.
Sakura, Sai, and Naruto just looked at each other.
"Just let it go." She said as she fallowed Kakashi. With Sai and Naruto behind her, Sakura walked up to beside Kakashi.
"Why do you do that? You could just admit your late." She said looking up at him.
Kakashi shook his head, "Impossible, Sakura we all know I'm perfect."
"Hard to argue with that." She mumbled under her breath.
"What was that?" Kakashi said glancing down her. Sakura looked up and put a sweet smile on her face.
"Nothing Kaka sensei." She smiled and jumped in to the trees running.
Before he jumped behind her he let the smile he held back fall over his face, he had heard Sakura of course. "Hmm if only you knew how imperfect I really am."

Sakura always let her mind wonder when she was jumping through the trees. She was perfect at her control and had never once slipped while running; And now was as good as any time to think. But when she felt Sai slip in stride with her she quickly let her worries fade to the back of her mind.
"So, we going to make camp soon right?" He asked not looking as if he really cared.
"Ask Kakashi, he is the team leader, not me." She answered.
"Yeah but he'll stop if you tired, but if we want to stop he says were being lazy, And coming from him that's saying something." Sai said looking at her expertly.
Sakura sighed then jumped over to Kakashi who was about five feet ahead of them. "When are we going to make camp." She asked looking at him.
Kakashi glanced over at her and raised an eyebrow, "Sakura we've only been going for 12 hours. Are you tired already?" He asked doubtfully. She was never the first one to get tired.
"Yeah kind of." She answered not bothering to bring up that Sai and Naruto were dying.
"Fine then." He said and jumped down on to the forest floor. Sakura and the others fallowed. "Were going to set up camp here."Kakashi said then walked over to a tree and sat down pulling out his book at the same time.
After everyone got the camp set up, they all settled around the fire. Sakura grabbed her small pillow from her pack and laid down.
"Hmm so many bugs out here." Naruto said waving his hand in front of his face to knock the bugs away.
"Yeah, who would have thought the forest would have bugs. Crazy shit." Sakura said rolling over to face the fire.
"Sakura…" Naruto said slumping his shoulders before laying down on his own mat.
The rest of the night was fallowed by some small conversation and even smaller amounts of sleep. They all were antsy about meeting the Anbu members. Sakura was very curious about what the papers had to due with that they were picking up. Why didn't the Hokage just send another team, maybe one of lesser ability. All this confused her and the fact that Kakashi was sitting up on a tree just a few feet away was also causing her to not want to sleep. Soon her eyes became so heavy that she could no longer keep them up.

The team had been up and running early, Kakashi said that had at least six more hours of running ahead of them. And that was a little over 5 and a half hours ago.
Therefore, by the time they got to a small village Sakura was more than grateful. The buildings in the town were small and built from some kind of cheep brick or mud. She looked around and saw mostly homeless on either side of the road they were walking up. A little boy playing with a small ball looked up at her as they walked passed him. He had big eyes that look almost hallow. She didn't even what to think of the things he had saw or been through. She knew that this part of the land had been under constant struggle for the power seat ever since the great ninja war, but she didn't expect so many to be effect. She saw a cut on his arm. It looked relatively bad for such a small boy to have, so she walked over to him.
"Hi, my names Sakura." She smile "That cut on your arm looks kind of bad." She reached out and put her hand over it healing it in almost instantly. The little boy looked at it and smiled at her.
"Thank you" he said in a small voice. Then he got up and walked into a door to a house a few feet away.
Sakura shook her head then got up to catch up with the others. They were only a few steps ahead of her so she caught up quickly.
"Where are these Anbu were meeting?" Naruto asked looking around. Kakashi pointed to a building that was over on the far left of the street. Sakura looked it over. Except for the small cup sign on the door, it looked like every other building that they passed.
"A bar how original. " Sakura said with a sigh. They all walked in the bar together and sat at the nearest table. By the chakra in the building, the Anbu members hadn't arrived yet. So they waited.

After about two hours of weighting three Anbu members walked in the door, Sakura could tell from the way the female member of the team was walking, she was injured. The masked people walked into a back room signing them to fallow.
As they walked in the small back room the female Anbu was laying on a table with her chest plate off.
"What happened?" Sakura asked walking over to the girl and pushing chakra into her body.
"Her cover was blown and she was captured." The hawk masked one said.
"She had a couple broken ribs. And maybe internal bleeding." Sakura said pushing as far as she dared with her chakra. "I healed what I could but she needs to rest."
"Does this mean that the mission was not completed?" Kakashi asked looking at hawk. He nodded.
Fox Anbu pushed her-self up on one arm. "What about you?" She said nodding toward Sakura. "You could complete it."
Sakura raised an eyebrow. "I'm not Anbu, and I don't even know what your mission was."
"It doesn't matter; all you need is to get into the Yotie office. The papers are in the safe." Fox said laying back down.
"Who is Yotie?" Sakura asked.
"A local noble, he lives just on the other side of this town, he's suspected to be dealing in the black market. Our mission was to find evidence of this and bring it back to the village. However, Fox was discovered and we had to flee." Hawk said looking at Sakura. He then turned to Kakashi, "You're her commander, and it's up to you. Nevertheless, you know she is more than capable to do this."
"Were hardly prepared for a full scale mission, we don't have the briefing and no knowledge of the target. No, she will not be taking your members place." Kakashi shook his head and started to walk out of the room.
"Um excuse me? I think we are more than able to do a task as simple as this." Sakura walked over to hawk. "I will take your partners place."
Kakashi spun around, "Sakura I am your team captain, I said this team will not be lending assistance."
"I don't care what you said, if there's a left village team that needs help it's our duty to help them." Sakura walked up to Kakashi. "Do you not remember your own words to us the first day of training?"
"Don't talk back to me. Just because I'm your friend doesn't mean you don't have to treat me with respect." Kakashi said moving his face within inches of hers.
"Fine, I respectively ask to be given to this Anbu squad." Sakura said stepping back.
"No, I won't agree." Kakashi said while crossing his arms.
Sakura shook her head. "Then I forfeit your right over me as captain and will take the punishment, when I get back to the village." Sakura said as she walked over to hawk. "I need more details in the man ill be working for."
"Sakura I won't allow this!" Kakashi said, "Now you're coming with us."
"Kakashi Hatake you are no longer in command of this ninja, as leader of this team I take responsibility for her now." This was said by the Anbu that was standing in the doorway. His mask was twisted into the shape of a bear. However, as Kakashi looked into the eyeholes he saw the same blue and brown eyes he did two nights ago at Sakuras apartment.
Kakashi felt all the anger he felt that night flood back into him. Controlling himself, he walked over and shut the door. Then without a moment's hesitation, he ripped off Dan's mask.
"There is no way in hell that I will leave my student under your protection." Kakashi through the mask on the ground. "Sakura you will be leaving with me. One way or another."
Sakura shook her head. "Kakashi, you forget, you're no longer my commander on this mission." She looked over at Dan. "I didn't know you were Anbu." She said. "I do take my missions very seriously, so don't expect anything but team work here." Sakura raised an eyebrow at the man to make sure he understood.
Dan smiled then nodded. "I expected nothing less."

Naruto and Sai sat around the fire looking at the tent a few feet away, Kakashi had all but dragged Sakura into it after she agreed to stay with them for the night before she went with Dan.
"Do you think Kakashi is really going to let her go?" Naruto asked Sai.
"Do you think Kakashi could keep her from going?" Sai asked back. "Besides, Sakura is right. He no longer has any control over what she does on this mission."
Naruto shook his head, "Kakashi's going to be hell to deal with." He said as he laid his head back on his bag.
"Sakura I know you want to help them, but you don't even know who this man is." Kakashi said standing across from the pink haired ninja.
"It doesn't matter, they need my help Kakashi!" She started to pick up her pack. "And all you can think about is Dan; you're just worried that something will happen." She looked him up and down. "You said that you could keep whatever is between us casual, if you can't do that then it will end here."
"Sakura I'm not worried because of that, I'm your sensei, I don't want to think of any guy on you." Kakashi said walking across to the door of the tent.
"Funny you didn't have a problem when it was you." Sakura whispered looking down at her feet.
"Your not going. That my final word." Kakashi said shaking his head as he walk out to sit with the boys.
Sakura threw a knife out opening of the tent, she heard it hit the tree that was next to the three boys and she smiled, "There's no way in hell that I'm being told what to do." She said forming a hand sign and disappearing in a swirl of pink leaves.
"Don't you think it would be better for everyone if you let her go?" Sai said as he pulled the knife out of the trunk. Kakashi looked at the hole in the tree.
"No." He said quickly before pulling down his forehead protector trying to sleep.

Sakura appeared in the back room of the bar. And just like she thought the three Anbu were still there.
"Wow she really came back." Fox said sitting on the table. Sakura looked her over and saw that her injuries were still pretty bad but she was healing quickly.
"I don't get told what to do." Sakura said. Then she turned to Dan, "Not what exactly do I have to do for this mission?"
He smiled, "Well because of Fox being discovered we have to take a new approach to the mission. Yotie is having a party, a kind of costume party. You will go as my date and then durning the party you will slip into his office and get the papers we need."
Sakura shook her head, "Sound easy enough, what will my costume be?" She asked.
Dan reached into a pack and pulled out a dog collar with a small leash attached to it.
"You've gotta be kidding me. Is that all?" Sakura asked. Then saw as he pulled out a red lace bra and see-threw lace boy shorts to match.
"No, there's this." Dan said walking over and handing it to her. "We should have told you, Yotie is one of the top sex abuser in the land."
Well that the next chapter Hahaha it a little bit of a cliff-hanger review if you like 3
