Chapter Three.
"Umm, Kakashi, could I get you another drink maybe?" Sakura asked smiley gently up at him.
Kakashi's mind instantly turned blank but he kept his face still as he rapidly tried to search for an answer, finally he replied: "Thanks for the offer Sakura but I'm okay with the one I have at the moment." That would have been a legitimate excuse if he had had a drink ... which he didn't. Sakura eyed him up and down to confirm that he most certainly didn't have a drink."It's at bar if you're wondering." Kakashi made up. Phew, I really need to come up with excuses that actually make sense.
"Oh, okay. I'll come with you then, I'd rather stay with you tonight anyway." Sakura told him and grasped his hand in her slender one and pulled him over to the bar with her. Kakashi who was powerless simply gave in for now and allowed her to tug him along.
"Can I get two more drinks please?" Sakura smiled sweetly at the bartender who smiled back enthusiastically until he saw Kakashi stand next to Sakura and glare at him. Why am I glaring at this guy? If she wants smile like that at him then I shouldn't be bothered...
The man behind the bar poured two fresh drinks for both Sakura and Kakashi who sat down at two vacant stools infront of the bar. Sakura took a deep swig of her drink and sighed happily. Kakashi glanced from the corner of his eye at this action: She mustn't have been out for a while I'm guessing.
"Have you been up to much recently then?" Sakura asked her ex-sensei then instantly regretted the question. What's he going to say? I have just read my wonderful books none stop as usual.
"Hnn, not really just training, avoiding Gai ... a few missions here and there, you?" asked Kakashi.
Sakura started to describe her hospital work, home visits, her extra training and the list goes on. Throughout the conversation Kakashi added his input, his opinions and took turns buying a round until the end of Sakura's work rant came to a close when Sakura was quite tipsy from eight glasses of Sake.
"You know what I really like. I like our training sessions." A intoxicated Sakura announced to the man sat beside who raised an eyebrow in response.
"Oh, any reason?" he asked hoping he would get an interesting reason.
"Well first off its a reason to see you and second sometimes good things happen." Sakura smiled and then unexpectantly burst out giggling.
"What good things in particular?" Kakashi was enjoying this interrogation session all too much more than he should have, taking advantage of Sakura at this time prying felt all too wrong but he just couldn't resist asking some questions which had been niggling at the back off his head.
"Like last training session, that was too good. Oh ... and when we get to go to the lake swimming and you join us!" this was added again with a little giggle.
No wonder she always suggests we have a break and asks to go swimming ... I always wondered why she was all too happy...
"Why do you like that Sakura?" He had to know, he had to know now.
"Because ... because ... I like you a lot. And more than a friend like." Sakura finally confessed and for some odd reason her brain clicked back into action and she realised her situation. She had just revealed what she had been keeping to herself to the very man. Oh god.
"Ano ... be right back!" Sakura smiled and ran in the opposite direction but truth be told she had no intention of going back but instead going home and trying to remember what she had said.
Damn you, where were you when I needed you? Oh? I was too busy enjoying the show.
I know its been a while but god, talk about coursework overload! Next chapter will also be much longer. So, she has revealed her feelings and then legged it, I wonder what Kakashi's makes of it all?
Next chapter:
Training session!
"Last night was interesting wasn't it Sakura?" Kakashi asked innocently.
