When Sasuke wakes up from being pushed off the bed for the nth time that week, he decides that it is time for Revenge on Sakura. He had been trying very hard to ignore it. Everyone had their flaws, though some people had ones that were more irritating than others. That was all. He had been trying to keep it from her, lest she became all flustered and annoying but Sasuke had had enough.

Enough!

Sitting up and climbing back on the mattress, he glares at the pink-haired girl who slept like a log, oblivious to the fact that she shoved him off. Again. He wasn't keeping track, but he is certain that the number of times she pushed his off the bed was at least over twenty.

Really.

She could actually manage to be that annoying in her sleep.

Grinning maliciously, Sasuke shoves her back to her side of the bed, and then a little bit more. His smile widens at the thump she makes when she hits the floor.

Ah, sweet revenge.

"Ow!" she whines, waking up. Sakura sits and peers at him from the floor. Unafraid of her questioning glare, Sasuke meets her eyes. "Sasuke…" she drawls in her promise-of-painful-torture-before-slow-death tone, "did you push me off the bed?"

"Yes," he replies coolly. Sakura crawls back on the bed and straddles him. Her fists are opening and closing and she is likely contemplating whether to smother him with a pillow or use her bare hands to strangle him. "I did," Sasuke continues, daring her to make a move.

"And why, pray tell, did you push me off the bed?"

"Because you push me off the bed," he snaps. Realizing he lost control over his temper, Sasuke frowns and looks to the side, pouting like an affronted child.

Sakura has the gall to look offended. "Excuse me?!" She slaps his face a few times before Sasuke gets annoyed and pushes her off him. "I so do not push you! I don't ever remember doing—"

"Yes, because you were sleeping," Sasuke explains. He pauses, wondering if he should continue, but realizes there's no point in turning back now, no matter how embarrassed she was likely to become. "Sakura, you stick your ass out when you sleep and somehow you manage to push me with it. It's annoying, which is expected since you're… you—"

"OI!"

"—but really," Sasuke's scowl darkens, "stay on your side of the bed."

They glare at each other for a minute before Sakura's eyes crinkle and smiles. She tries to smother her giggles but fails, and instead drops back onto her pillow. "Oh, god," she groans, rubbing her face. "Sasuke, we sound like a married couple." As she continues to laugh, Sasuke allows himself a small grin. When her chuckles die down, Sakura leans against his chest, drawing patterns along his skin. "I'm sorry I pushed you off the bed with my ass, darling."

Sasuke nods. "Aa." She pokes him harshly in the ribs and he winces. "Sorry I pushed you."

Sakura looks up at him and kisses him chastely. "Goodnight, Sasuke."

"Goodnight."

And as they lay in each other's arms, it remains a good night.

Well, until Sasuke wakes up on the floor, that is.

"SAKURA!"
