Sasuke visits his wife and she confesses. So does Sasuke. They talk about their marriage

Sasuke had known this day would come, the day Sakura hit the end of her patience, a day that had long

come and gone for him. He never bothered telling her why, not because she didn't deserve to know,

but because she would never accept it until she was ready to leave.

He was seated with her on the grass, Sakura nestled between his legs, an arm wrapped around her and his

head resting atop hers. He truly loved this, being close to her. When they had traveled together the first few

months it had been paradise for him. He had been head over heels in love, his desire to be near her overwhelming.

He made love to her one night, and then the next, and then didn't want to again for five months.

It wasn't the pregnancy, it wasn't the sex itself because it had been incredible. It was how much she wanted it

compared to him. How he either ended up being a failure or used or obligated, and how rejected, hurt and eventually

desperate his wife became. He had hoped that coming home when he was ready to give her what she wanted could

save them. It only made him lonely for companionship and her curling in on herself wondering why she wasn't wanted anyway.

He leaned down to speak softly into her ear.

"Please don't go."

"It can't stay like this Sasuke.", she said, lip trembling,"I'm tired of needing you in a way you just don't need me."

"You will take a lover regardless if you go, Sakura.I want to be near you, with you."

She stiffened. He could feel her pain in waves, wishing now he didn't tell her but knowing it was right to,

and continued,"I want to be close to you like that too sometimes."

Sakura heaved a heavy sigh,"About every six months, Sasuke."

"After you take a lover, write to me. I will be back a month afterwards to try. Just try once more, Sakura.

If it is not enough I will let us go. If it is, I will stay, and we can both be happy again."

After he had come to visit this time she had broken down, told him how she nearly betrayed him at a

holiday party, before Ino walked in and dragged the man off her.

Then she'd asked for him to come home or give her a divorce.

He had kissed her and told her how lonely he was without her there everyday, that he couldn't let her be

because his level of desire hurt her and he couldn't bear to watch her hurt over it anymore. Or let her hurt him.

She had responded with agonized rage.

After a night of tears, here they were.

"I'll try.", she whispered.

It took her a few weeks to realize that nothing would make her husband want her more than a few times

a year and that she had a choice to make.

Once she made it, the thought of being desired the way she needed and maybe enjoying Sasuke's regular

presence again became attractive. Even for Sarada's sake.

Despite her bold behavior, she was nervous right now, hoping to sway Genma into taking control and just

getting the "being with someone other than Sasuke" part out of the way.

If it had actually been Genma in the room with her, she would likely have had just that.

Of course, it wasn't.

He had said he wanted her, asked her to stay, but made no move toward her.

She unbuttoned her dress, waiting for him to approach.

She let it fall to the ground, saying simply, "Touch me."

Oh my. There it is again. The naughty outfit that haunted his dreams last night.

He had to do something before she got angry again and left .

Move your feet Hatake. Treat it like a seduction mission. Get information about what the hell is going on.

Do only what you have to. Act like Genma.

"You're husband was here not that long ago. He didn't help you out sweetheart?", he said as he let his eyes

rove over her. She had a great body. If it wasn't attached to Sakura he'd be well on his way to being inside it .

He resisted the urge to shake that thought from his mind visibly.

"He doesn't want it very often.", she said, wrapping her arms around his neck and pressing her body against him.

"That's a shame", he whispered, pressing back into her.

She began leaving open mouthed kisses on his neck, stroking him through his pants again.

"Do you believe him?", he asked.

Better to get the important questions out there now before she put all of the blood in his head down south.

She was certain,"Yes."

How? How could Sasuke not want her?

"How long has it been?", he got out before feeling her small bare fingers wrap around his shaft. Her nibbles on

his neck were driving him crazy. He needed to touch back, but held himself still, knowing once he felt her body

under his fingertips he might forget who she was until he woke up hating himself tomorrow.

"Eight months."

His heart sank for her. He brought both hands up and held her face, gave her a chaste kiss with sorrow in his eyes.

Sasuke had been in the village twice in that time.

Sakura was approaching her mid thirties and seemed fairly passionate anyway.

He would give her this. She would never know. He could apologize for his visit to her house last night afterward,

see how she felt about things. Then find Sasuke and demand an explanation.

"Are you sure you want to do this Sakura? If there's anything you don't want me to do, tell me ok?"

She nodded,"OK."

He teased her into a beautiful mess over and over,watching her eyes flutter closed and moaning out at the bliss he gave her. When he put his fingers inside of her he struggled not to just let himself feel it with his cock, but he let it be.

He could not hold a henge during orgasm.

That would be a disaster that would ruin their friendship and it kept him in check.

The moment she left, he shunshinned to his apartment, forgetting that Genma was there.

He turned on the hot water in the shower and stroked himself madly, remembering her sprawled out on the desk

with her legs wrapped around his shoulders, so he could talk to her tonight without bending her over her kitchen counter.

She was absolutely beautiful.

He met a mischievously smiling Genma at the bathroom door.

"Hard to resist right? Did you?".

Kakashi scowled, unhappy to be giving details.

"I made her happy, just not with what she wanted."

"So now what?", Genma asked.

"I'm going to talk with her tonight, see why Sasuke isn't doing it."

"I know why. She told me. You should've asked."

That would've been good to know beforehand."Why?"

"He loves her, he just doesn't want to. I don't get it either. Anyway, he told her to find someone

that would so she could be happy and he could come home and not feel like he had to."

Kakashi laid his head in a hand,"Oh shit."

"Does that mean I can have her now?"

"Get out of my apartment, Genma."
