Cute As A Kitten

"Yes!"

"You like that?"

"Yes, right there don't stop Genma!"

Sakura thought about the predicament she was currently in, and wondered how it ever came to be. Sure if she had to be doing anything with anyone she was happy it was with Genma, after all he was extremely cute, not to mention his calm and easy going personality. Add his humor and kindness and you basically have the perfect guy.

But still she had to wonder if she was doing this for the right reasons. Sakura mentally laughed at herself, of course she wasn't doing this for good or honest reasons. She was doing this for revenge and like they always say, revenge is a dish best served sweet; and Genma was the sprinkles on top of the ice-cream, the hot fudge over the equally chocolate filled brownie, and basically any other dessert topping alive.

Sakura smiled biting at her bottom lip, a surge of happiness ran through her body as she thought about the face Sasuke was probably making at this very moment. Oh yes, Genma had been the perfect pick.

{~…~}

One day earlier…

"What?!" Tenten whined, "I missed so much!"

"Shhh." Sakura sounded while placing her finger over her lips. She look over to their team leader widening her eyes in the process to emphasize how much she didn't want him to over hear them.

The two girls had been paired with one of the Hokage's leading men to complete a simple escort mission. Since their mission was complete Sakura thought she'd catch Tenten up on what had been happening. The road would often get boring so it was nice to have Tenten with her so she could keep busy until the travel was over.

"Sorry." Tenten whispered nervously.

Genma stopped in his tracks, he turned his head slightly to look over the small town they were about to enter, "All right, we'll stay here for the night."

"Is this in the mission budget?" Sakura asked confused, most times ninjas would often camp outside to keep their location secret.

Genma stretched his body out enjoying the relaxing sensation, "Don't worry it's my treat, unless you would rather sleep in the woods Sakura."

Tenten giggled which caused heat to rise to Sakura's cheeks. Genma smiled at her nipping the bottom of her chin with his finger, "Relax it's just some harmless teasing. I'm going to go pay for the rooms, why don't you have a look around."

As soon as Genma walked away Tenten squealed, "He is so cute, and super cool." Sakura looked uninterested and unimpressed by the man, so Tenten took further action, "And I think he likes you." Tenten playfully sung to the girl.

"Yea sure Tenten." Sakura responded barley, in truth Tenten often assumed people liked her friends which coincidentally never was the case.

Tenten crossed her arms, "I'm serious this time, come on Sakura you can't say that Genma isn't cute."

Sakura smiled, Tenten only wanted the best for her and to tell the truth she did think Genma was cute, who didn't? Tenten could have picked worse and he was way better than any of the other guys she had dated in her past. But she didn't really have time to bother herself with a serious relationship. Still, Sakura appreciated Tenten's effort, "Yea sure Tenten."

"I hate you." Tenten stated coldly and Sakura let out a giggle knowing that the older girl didn't really mean what she had said.

"If you like him so much, why don't you date him?"

The brunette crossed her arms, "Ok I will!"

Silence fell upon the girls and Sakura couldn't help but smile waiting for the girl to explode.

"But you two would be so much cuter Sakura. Come on will you just try talking to him for me? Please?!Please?! Please?!"

"Tenten, haven't you been listening to me? I'm going to prove to Sasuke that I can seduce him while making him fall in love with me. I don't want anything serious at least not until I finish the mission I assigned myself."

"Mission?" Tenten asked, she was very confused by her friend's words.

"Yes mission." Sakura then continued her speech, "I can't have a boyfriend and seduce Sasuke, it just wouldn't be right."

Tenten sighed, "I guess you're right." The girl allowed a minute or two to pass before a small smirk begged to settle on her lips. This smile was different from her other smiles, because unlike the rest this had a quiver of evil in it, "If you want to seduce Sasuke you have to make him realize how much he really cares for you. The best way to do that is by making him jealous, and in that Genma is the best pick. He is an elite guard to the Hokage and well respected throughout the village."

Sakura met the girls gaze, "Tenten, what are you trying to say?"

The older kunoichi slapped her forehead for the green eyed girl's ignorance, "I'm saying dating Genma may make Sasuke jealous and can help you achieve your goal faster."

"Ohhhh." Sakura said finally understanding what Tenten was getting at, "But don't you think it's rude to use Genma as a pond like that?"

Tenten giggled awkwardly while fanning the girl off, "Well if you're only dating it means you're non- exclusive. So stop all your questions and go ask him out."

Tenten shoved Sakura in the path of the hotel. When Sakura looked back at the girl she was only smiling while waving to her. Weirdo! Sakura thought as she headed towards the hotel where they'd be staying for the night.

"Yes!" Tenten yelled after the pink haired girl was out of sight, "She fell for my plan! I wonder if I'll be the maid of honor in her wedding."

{~…~}

"Hinata."

Said girl jumped at the sound of the man's voice, she took a deep breath and turned around, "H-Hi Sasuke-san."

Sasuke was leaning up against a building with his hands tucked deep inside of his pockets, "You never gave me an answer."

Hinata started to get nervous, looking at her surroundings she noticed not a lot of people were around. Why did she choose to travel the quietest path in Konoha? She never choose this path! In fact the only reason she decided to take this road was to avoid Sasuke. Figures he would take the path that no one walked, "W-What question?"

Sasuke smirked, he knew she was playing dumb for a reason, "The plan that will get Naruto to like you."

"U-umm I-I." Hinata took a deep breath and with run on sentence she yelled out, "I don't think it's a good idea, if Sakura-chan found out she'd be hurt. I don't want to risk hurting my best friend for my own greedy reasons. I-I'll just find another way to get Naruto-kun to notice me."

"I see." Sasuke said before walking up to the girl making her hold her breath.

His hand reached out towards her and Hinata began to shake slightly at the situation. To say she was scared of Sasuke wouldn't be absolutely correct, she was just nervous around him. To say the least she never really talked to Sasuke before a few days ago and the topic of conversation was a private one. The dark haired boy however didn't seem to mind talking about private matters when their friends were in the other room. So Hinata could only imagine what he might do if they were hidden from the public eye completely.

He drew his hand close to her cheek but changed its direction to pull something out of her hair and when she looked up she could see the piece of lint in his hands, "I'm sure you'll win him over."

He Hinata smiled brightly, maybe she had been under the wrong assumption of the Uchiha, "Thank you."

Sasuke smirked before disappearing.

{~…~}

"What the hell was that all about?" A very blonde headed girl asked no one at all.

A few moments ago she had witness Sasuke and Hinata having a very intimate conversation. There she was minding her own business walking down the path she always took when she stumbled upon the pair. She had seen Sasuke smile more than she ever witnessed him smile in a lifetime and Hinata held a blush on her cheeks while looking suspiciously nervous.

Ino tried to reason that maybe it was a simple encounter, but Sasuke had ran his fingers through Hinata's hair slightly and both smiled happily before going their separate ways. No, they were definitely dating, but then Sasuke didn't really date so they must be—.

Ino gasped, "Oh that dirty Hinata, it's always the quiet ones you have to watch out for. I wonder if Sakura knows about this." Ino stopped to think to herself before speaking out loud once again, "No way if billboard brow knew about this she would have been told me. I have to tell her immediately!" Ino sighed, "Huh but Sakura won't be back for a few days, I can't keep a secret like this. I know I'll tell Temari, she never listens to me anyway."

The girl never noticed but someone had been watching her from the shadows, a man perhaps. An extremely pleased man whose plan had just been put in motion.

{~…~}

"Oh hey Sakura I was sure you'd be out sightseeing a little longer than this."

Sakura smiled at Genma, now that she was actually standing in front of the man her nerves started to get the best of her, "Oh, well I was just. You see it's just. I-I wanted to." She huffed in frustration, "Apparently I can't speak right."

Genma stared at Sakura his soft brown eyes not showing a hint of irritability. His soft lips slowly quirked up into an enduring smile and the long tooth pick shifted from one side of his mouth to the other, "It's ok you're cute without even speaking."

Sakura blushed at the unexpected compliment, "I-I." Why couldn't she speak around him? The first good, nice guy, with a calm personality, and was not liked by her other friends was speaking to her and she couldn't complete a sentence.

Figures. Ok just treat him like he was Sasuke, then he'll hate me. Naruto? Are you crazy?!

"Sakura is something wrong?"

Sakura shook the conversation out of her head, she didn't need to picture Genma as someone else. What she needed was to imagine herself having more confidence. More ambition. A bigger ego!

Genma frowned since he still didn't receive an answer from the girl, "Look Sakura, if me calling you cute made you feel awkward I'm sorry I only meant you were cute in a kitten type of way."

A dark purple shade formed over top of Sakura as all of her ego fell into pieces. The embarrassment was replaced by a sudden surge of rage as realization finally settle in of what Genma said, "So you think of me as a kitten! An animal! Well I'll have you know that plenty of men find me sexy so I don't care about your opinion!"

Sakura stormed away giving everyone who came in her path death glares. Genma was just confused by the entire situation, "W-What did I say wrong?"

{~…~}

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The door creaked open slowly and Temari popped her head out of her hotel room, "Ino? Why are you hear, is something wrong?"

Ino started to laugh loudly, "Oh no nothing is wrong with Shikamaru."

"That's not what I asked!"

"But that's what you meant."

Temari clenched her fist stopping herself from attacking the girl, "Ino, shut up and tell me what you want before I shut my door."

Ino put her hands up, "Ok, ok. But I need to come inside, we don't want this secret to get out."

The door creaked once again before shutting completely.

{~…~}

Sakura fell onto her mattress, her body was tired and it was to great relief to finally be relaxing in her own home. It was 8:45 in the evening would it be acceptable to go to sleep and not wake up to the next morning right? It didn't matter Sakura was definitely going to bed, it's not like she had anything else to do with her life.

She let all the tension in her body release so the transition to unconsciousness would go smoother. She then began to put all of her worries aside so she could relax completely. However when it came to this task the pink haired girl found it little difficult.

"How could he say I look like a kitten!? I'm 18 almost 19 now I'm not some child to be compared to a kitten!" Sakura stood up and looked into her full body mirror. She examined her body and though her breast weren't as large as Hinata's she still didn't look young, "Who am I kidding? I still fit into my clothes from when I was 12."

A sigh of defeat escaped Sakura's lips, "No it is okay Sakura you just haven't hit your growth spurt yet."

The kunoichi slipped on shoes and walked out of her bedroom door.

Naruto turned to see his friend on a determined mission, "Hey where are you going?"

"Somewhere to remind myself of my age."

"Have fun?" Naruto asked more than stated.

{~…~}

"I'll have a strawberry cosmos."

"Coming right up."

Sakura twirled the bar stool she was on and examined the entire restaurant. It was busy and warm, everyone had a drink and their hand and there was Genma sitting in the corner with a beautiful woman.

Sakura gasped embarrassed by the sight, she quickly turn to face the bar hoping he wouldn't notice her. Knowing that she had pink hair she highly doubted she would go unnoticed but one could dream. Besides, even if he noticed her didn't mean he would come to speak to her. Sakura quickly realized that a small part of her wanted him to come over and talk to her. And for a split second she envied the beautiful woman sitting next to him.

After seeing the woman, Sakura felt foolish about ever giving into the thought of Genma liking her. I mean in comparison to the woman Genma was sitting next to Sakura was definitely a cute kitten. The woman had long voluminous dark blue hair, with flawless glowing tan skin, and dark passionate eyes. Sakura didn't know if the woman or an hourglass had more curves, and the little black dress she had on made it look like she did.

You know kittens aren't so bad tons of people love kittens. They infectious, soft, and you always want to give them extra love. Maybe Sakura could live with being a kitten if it meant never being put up against a cougar.

"Here you go ma'am!"

"Thank you but I think I'll need something harder after this."

"I know just the thing!"

Sakura took a sip of her pink drink and sighed, "Even my drink is a kitten."

Laughter exploded from behind the girl, "Has that been bothering you this entire time?"

Sakura twisted her seat to see a cool Genma looking more relaxed than ever, she guessed he had a few drinks in his system.

"No." Sakura stated sharply, "And it's not polite to sneak up on people."

Genma chuckled, "I'm a ninja so it's kind of a habit to sneak up on people."

"It's my job to eliminate the enemy but you're still here aren't you?" Sakura fired back coldly.

"Ouch." Genma said while cringing at the remark, "I don't blame you for being upset that I called you a kitten I'd be upset if someone called me a puppy."

Sakura took another sip of her drink then looked over at the man, "The why did you say it?" He began to laugh and Sakura squinted her eyes at him, "What's so funny? Just tell me already before I get even madder."

Genma sighed happily, "Well I had to say something to save myself from the embarrassment of rejection."

"Oh I get it when I didn't respond to you, you thought I was going to reject you." Sakura smiled relieved that she was not thought of as a furry animal, "Well I wasn't going to reject you I was there to ask you out on a date."

Genma cough up his drink, "Really?" He smirked with innocence, "Well there is still time."

"What about that woman you were with?"

Genma looked confused before connecting the dots, "Oh Nami is just an old friend but we are not dating. Besides she isn't my type I'm more into kittens."

Sakura blushed he was smooth and the perfect balance between Naruto and Sasuke. Meaning overly happy and hyperactive and totally dark and closed off, "No offense Genma but I'm not looking for anything serious right now at least until I finish my personal mission."

The jonin sighed, "I get well if you ever change your mind let me know."

Sakura bit on her lips sexually, "Well there is one thing you can help with me with."

Genma look at her confused, "Mhh?"

Sakura took the shot the bartender had finally sat down and after paying the tab she grabbed Genma's hand and dragged him back to her house.

Which brings us to the current situation…

"Yes!"

"You like that?"

"Yes, right there don't stop Genma!"

Sasuke balled his fist up in anger! The only thing he could hear over Sakura moans was the sound of her headboard hitting the wall. He got that she was trying to make a point and even though it wasn't working, he was getting very annoyed by the sound.

Naruto had left right after Sakura stating he had to go and see someone, but Sasuke believed he was going to stalk Hinata for the third time this week.

"I'M REACHING MY CLIMAX!"

"AHHHHahhhh."

Sasuke knew by the sudden quietness the pair was finally finished. He let out a breath, Sakura was going to pay for what she had done. He didn't know why but he had a sudden urge to confront the two and threaten them not to be so loud next time.

Wait! There better not be a next time! Sakura was in for a rude awakening if she thought for a moment that she was able to experience sex with anyone else. Sasuke would make sure that this was the last time Genma would step foot in his house.

{~…~}

"Thanks Genma that was great."

The browned eyed man looked into the emerald green eyes across from him and smiled, "Hey sure anytime you need to have fake sex call me and I'll be here."

Sakura laughed, "Yea, sorry if you wanted the real thing but I'm just not that kind of girl."

"I get it." Genma yawned, "But there is one thing I'm still confused about."

"What is it?" Sakura asked.

Genma stretched his arms behind his head, "Why go through so much trouble for Uchiha if you don't want anything serious?" Sakura was shocked at his words which threw her in a trance of thought, "It seems to me you love him."

Sakura gasped before laughing away his statement awkwardly, "No way it's just harmless fun."

"I sure hope so."

"Huh?"

Genma smiled with all his teeth, "That means after your game I may have a shot."

Sakura's eyes widened with shock before softening while her lips formed a soft smile, "Well it seems to me that you, Genma have it bad for a certain pink haired kitten."

He sat up slipping his shoes back into place, "Maybe I do." He leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead, "I'll see you around Sakura."

{~…~}

So what did you guys think? I definitely love Genma so this will probably not be the last of him. I don't want Sakura to have sex with anyone just yet because I think I want her to be a virgin. So I think she would much rather fool Sasuke into thinking she is having sex instead of actually doing it. I hope you all enjoyed! Until next time beautiful people!
