Hello all.

So, here is chapter 7! There is a scene where if you are unable to stomach the intimate relationships of adults, then you need to turn away. The song I chose for this chapter pretty much explains the feelings between Sasuke and Sakura, sexually anyway. I'm so sorry it took so long to update. I finished up fall semester and then, since I work retail, I worked the holidays as well. Let's just say retail has killed the holiday spirit within me lol. There are also a LOT of scene jumps because you're kinda suppose to listen to the song as they do their thing.

Sasuke's Burlesque Chapter 7

Naruto stared intently at his reflection in the bathroom mirror. He took in his bedraggled appearance, glaring at drool lines running from his mouth to his chin. Raising a hand to his unruly bed hair, he smoothed it down to his head and held it there. When he released it, the blonde hair jumped back up like a spring and he sighed tiredly. The shower behind him continued running as he ran his hands through his hair, gritting his teeth when they encountered knots. His toothpaste pooled out of its container, so it created a sticky mess all over the white granite counter. Naruto ran a hand from his hair to his prickly face, smoothing his hand over his equally prickly neck. His gaze slid to his bare chest, where his naturally tanned skin stood out in the light of the bathroom. The towel around his waist loosened slightly as he reached up to grab his razor to take it into the shower with him. He heard his roommate pace in front of the bathroom door eagerly, waiting for him to finish with his morning routine. Smirking devilishly to himself, he took his towel off and let it drop to the ground with a soft thump.

"Pacing around outside isn't going to make me go any faster," he sang. The pacing outside the door stopped and after a few quiet minutes, a low growl was heard.

"Hurry the hell up, loser," Sasuke said. "I have to be somewhere soon."

"I'll be out in just a minuuuuute." Naruto smiled as he stepped in the hot water and sighed in content. He ran his hands through his soaked hair and sighed again. His performance tonight was going to be awesome in his mind. The song he had chosen would, in Tsunade's words, be a game changer for the atmosphere of the club. She had even told him she was considering hiring some more males to her once all girl club. The thought of more half naked Sakuras made him giggle madly and pump his fists repeatedly in excitement.

He could not wait.

Rain pounded on the fogged glass of the coffee shop Sakura sat in. She picked up her coffee lightly and sipped from it carefully to avoid burning herself. There was a far off boom of thunder in the distance after a flash of lightning streaked across the sky. Sighing to herself, she leaned her cheek on her hand and stared out into the freezing downpour of downtown Konoha. It was the town she had grown up in, along with Naruto and…Sakura blushed at the thought of the man that had recently been occupying her thoughts and dreams. The last time she had felt like this for Sasuke was in high school. Ever since they had been expressing themselves a little more actively towards each other, it was like fireworks exploded whenever they were around one another. Her brain always got fuzzy when he came anywhere near her, and every time his hand would brush against a part of her body, a warmth would spread from that area to the rest of her body. It was like they never were away from each other; like they never lost contact.

Sakura groaned loudly enough to make the neighboring customers stare at her curiously. Blushing at the attention, she ducked her face down and put her lips to her coffee cup. 'I feel like a total idiot just sitting here by myself,' she thought. Sasuke had texted her the night before asking if she wanted to get coffee with him that day. Now, with him being over fifteen minutes late, she just wanted to leave in case the weather got worse than it was at the moment. She looked around and noticed there was a considerate less amount of people than when she got there. Many of the customers had probably gotten their coffee to go because of the worsening weather. A few more minutes passed before Sakura huffed angrily and stood up quickly to leave. As she packed her stuff up, the door jingled behind her and quick footsteps approached her. Suddenly, a hand laid itself down on her canvas bag that served as her every day bag and Sakura jumped in surprise.

Sasuke smirked down at her reaction, water dripping from his hair and his over coat drenched from the pouring rain. Sakura's eyes widened at him, then narrowed them.

"You're late," she growled.

Sasuke shrugged. "Well, I'm sorry if the idiot took forty five minutes to shower. I am just happy I only take five minutes."

"Put a lock or something on the water tank! Flush the toilet! I was sitting here like an idiot waiting for you, and everyone is already pretty much gone because of this god forsaken weather!"

"If you are that worried about getting to work on time then maybe we should just go ahead and leave?" Sakura scowled at his tone of voice. Sasuke smirked down at her again and she sighed. He gestured for her to lead them out of the coffee shop, and she lifted her bag over her shoulder again to proceed with walking to the door again. There was a light pressure on her lower back and a light blush dusted across her cheeks when she recognized Sasuke's hand on her back. When she peeked up at him, she noticed he looked nervous in a Sasuke-fashion; there was a blush on his face but he was not looking at her. He was looking more towards the door rather than at her, like he was trying to avoid her eyes. Sakura smiled lightly and put a hand on the door to push it open.

All of a sudden, there was a flash of light that was followed with a gigantic boom. Sakura squealed and leapt back from the door like she had been shocked by the lightning strike. Sasuke had not been anticipating this and yelled out in pain as Sakura stepped on his feet. They went tumbling down to the floor just as the door flew open from a powerful gust of wind that sent everything loose or no more than five pounds flying around. The remaining customers, having seen the event unfold, rushed over to the couple and helped them up as two of the associates struggled to close the doors against the wind.

"Damn Konoha weather," Sakura grumbled as she thumped her head against Sasuke's arm. She had fallen across him diagonally, his body cushioning her fall.

"Are you guys okay?" one of the people helping them asked. Sakura nodded and Sasuke only groaned in response. She looked down to see one of her elbows had expertly landed a solid hit on his groin.

"Oh my God, Sasuke! I'm so sorry!"

Sasuke coughed slightly and Sakura assisted in helping him up along with the other person. Once they had gotten him in a chair, Sakura kneeled in front of him and placed her hands on his thighs.

"I am SO sorry," she cried. "It was that stupid thunder and lightning that made me jump like that!"

"Oh yeah," Sasuke whispered painfully. "It was ALL the weather's fault."

"You jackass," Sakura laughed. She stood and hugged him tightly. Over her shoulder, Sasuke smiled and unconsciously leaned his cheek on her shoulder. Sakura straightened up and looked out the window at the worsening storm, hands on his shoulders. This gave Sasuke a great view of her chest, so great that the scarf she wore was not doing a good job of covering her. He must have been staring too much because Sakura noticed his gaze and she crossed her arms over her breasts, blushing hard.

"Quit staring, you ass," she murmured.

"Can't help it. It is just there."

Sakura growled at him and then sighed. "It looks like we won't be leaving this place unless we go back to our places. The club is on the other side of town, so it's a good thirty minutes from here."

"Naruto and I split off when we left, so he should be there by now," Sasuke grunted as he sat up a little straighter in his seat. The pain was a dull throb at this point, but good God that was painful. "Can you get my cell phone out of my jacket pocket, Sakura?"

"Yeah, sure." Sakura reached into his jacket for his phone and pulled it out. Handing it to Sasuke, she walked over to the window to watch the rain causing a river to roll down the street, effectively stopping all kinds of traffic that was trying to head to home. She remembered in school when it would close early in events like this because it was so dangerous to drive on the roads. There was a day where her car would not start because of all the water that was around it, so Sasuke had to give her a ride home. Although he came from a rich family, his parents said he had to work for his first car, which ended up being a nice truck. It was set high, so he was able to drive it in harsh conditions such as this.

"You still have your truck from high school right?" she asked him. Sakura turned to him, and her eyes widened when she caught him staring at her, a smoldering look that made her insides shiver.

"Yeah, I do. And Naruto still has that ridiculous orange Honda civic. Speaking of which, he said he told Tsunade about how we might be late and she said she did not care as long as we do not kill ourselves getting there."

"All righty then," Sakura chuckled. Walking back over to him, she plopped right down on his lap and swung her legs over his. Sasuke sucked in his breath, both from slight pain and surprise at her action. Smirking knowingly, Sakura put both arms around his neck and burrowed her nose in his neck. "If they seem to think we're a couple, then we might as well act like one."

"Well, since this was supposed to be a coffee date, then I guess it is okay."

At that statement, Sakura flinched and pulled back to look at him with surprise all over her face. "A date?"

"Yeah. You did not think I was just asking you to meet me for coffee to work on our numbers for tonight when we both know we are ready for them." Sakura tried to stutter out a response, but Sasuke silenced her by putting his lips to hers briefly. A soft squeal came from her lips, muffled by his. "Just be quiet, Sakura, and enjoy this brief moment of peace between us." She nodded rapidly and Sasuke smirked. Motioning for her to get up, he staggered up and had to bend over for a minute as dizziness hit him slightly.

"I think we need to head home, especially if you're hurting that bad," Sakura said. Sasuke huffed and nodded, allowing her to put his arm around his shoulder.

"If you two are leaving, then you need to be careful," said an associate behind them.

"We'll be fine," Sakura said with a sweet smile. "He has a truck that can get us home safely. Thank you for your help."

The man nodded with a slight blush and Sasuke rolled his eyes, slyly placing the arm that was around Sakura's shoulders around her waist. He shot a glare at the associate, earning a tired sigh from Sakura. The man flinched in fear at the glare he was receiving, shakily handing Sakura a packet of ice for Sasuke's crotch.

"Don't pay attention to him," she whispered as she took the ice. "He's naturally this mean." This did not seem to reassure him and he shuffled away like a wounded puppy. There was snort from Sasuke and Sakura glared at him. "You better be nice or the pain will only get worse." She grabbed her umbrella from her bag and shoved it into his hands. "Be useful and open this."

Waving at the people in the coffee place, the pair ventured to his truck parked on the curb. They both concluded without speaking to each other that her car would have to wait for someone to come back and pick it up. Sakura smiled up at him when he opened the passenger door for her and helped her up into the seat. Closing the door behind her, Sasuke hobbled to the driver's side and hopped in. Fumbling for his keys, he stabbed them into the ignition as his hands shook from the cold. Konoha's winters were notoriously cold; so cold that the entire city had to shut down for safety. Furious snow storms ravage the city every year, effectively shutting the city down for a week at most. Whole families would stay stuck in their homes, or people would even get stuck at work and have to stay there until the roads were cleared. Shivering violently, Sakura wrung her hands together as Sasuke put the heat on full blast. The two sat there for a few minutes to let the warmth surround them, and after another couple of minutes, they both sighed in content at the comfortable feeling.

Then, Sakura slid closer to Sasuke and fisted a hand on his collar. Pulling him closer to her, Sasuke breathed through his nose sharply when she slanted her mouth over his own. His hand closest to her grabbed at her waist almost desperately, clawing at the fabric of her long sleeve shirt. The hand that was fisted in his collar moved from his jacket to the front lapels of it, pulling him flush to her. Sakura started to realize Sasuke was pushing her back towards the passenger door by the way she was sliding against the seat. Her back finally hit the door and he loomed over her, one hand bracing himself on the window and the other one still on her waist. His mouth glued to hers against and suddenly, Sakura put a hand on his chest. When he pulled back, he saw she was blushing and almost gasping for breath.

"I think, um, we need to not do this on the curb in your truck," she whispered. Sasuke blinked down at her for a second before nodding his head and scooting back off her. Sakura breathed out slowly, giving him a smile while she righted herself in the seat. He put the truck in gear as she put her seat belt on, anticipating a long night at work. She was worried how Naruto's performance would go, and if he embarrassed her then she would kill him. As they traveled down the road in silence, she noticed Sasuke was not taking the road to the club.

"Um, Sasuke? Are we not going to work?"

"No. I already told Naruto we would not make it. Besides," Sasuke looked at her from the corner of his eye and she blushed at the smoldering look he was giving her that told her his intentions for her. "You said we did not need to do it on the curb in my truck, right?"

Naruto swallowed thickly as the act before him finished up, silently cursing Sasuke for the text he had received not even ten minutes before. Apparently, he and Sakura were not showing up that night because of the bad weather, and this screwed Naruto over. Not only was he nervous for his first night, but he was literally the last act of the night. Meaning if he screwed up, he would screw the whole night up. He was going to maim his roommate and his pretty little girlfriend when this was over. Now that he was up next after the dance number given by Ino, he was so scared he was going to do something.

What if he messed up a note?

What if he could not get the right mood started?

What if…

Oh God.

What if he fell off the stage again?!

"Coming up next is a new addition to the group," Kakashi announced.

Oh, God, Naruto thought. His grip on the microphone tightened considerably and he drowned out the announcer's voice in favor of nearly peeing himself as the curtain began to part. He emitted a quiet girlish squeal when the lights shined on him and a lot of expectant faces watching him. The band behind him began playing and Naruto closed his eyes to calm himself. Although he had done this before with Kakashi and Tsunade to get the job, the experience of doing it in front of a much bigger crowd made his knees weak. He just did not want to fall off stage again because he got too excited. But, as he opened his eyes again and grabbed the old fashioned style microphone in between his hands with a newfound confidence, he realized that it was not as bad as he thought it was. Especially when it was for the sake of his best friends.

Ooh I got a body full of liquor
With a cocaine kicker
And I'm feeling like I'm thirty feet tall (Naruto closes his eyes as he draws it out)
So lay it down, lay it down

The door to Sasuke's apartment flew open and Sakura and Sasuke both stumbled in, Sakura's hands fisted in his hair and mouths glued to one another's. Sasuke grabbed at her bottom and squeezed hard, earning him a deep moan that vibrated through him.

You got your legs up in the sky
With the devil in your eyes
Let me hear you say you want it all
Say it now, say it now

Sasuke lifted Sakura up so her legs circle around hips, and he pressed himself to her as he pinned her to the front door. The blazing look Sakura gave him made Sasuke want to growl, but he kissed her harder instead and began to stumble his way to his bedroom. Behind them, Sakura's jacket and shirt thumped on the ground, followed by Sasuke's jacket as well.

Look what you're doing, look what you've done
But in this jungle you can't run
'Cause what I got for you
I promise it's a killer,
You'll be banging on my chest
Bang bang, gorilla (Naruto bangs on his chest and throws his head back with the old fashioned microphone)

Sasuke threw Sakura on the bed, the bed springs creaking underneath her lithe weight. He peeled off his shirt and threw it to the floor, giving Sakura an eyeful of his chest and abs. Sakura would have purred if she were a cat, and she groaned as Sasuke slid over her body and laid open mouth kisses on her neck.

Ooh, yeah
You and me baby making love like gorillas
Ooh, yeah
You and me baby making love like gorillas

Hands slid down the contour of Sakura's torso and down the deep curve of her waist. She moaned as Sasuke's tongue made a hot path down her clavicle. He lowered his head down to run his tongue between the valley of her breasts, but before she begged him to go lower where her legs were rubbing together, Sasuke rose quickly and grabbed a fistful of her hair. Forcing her to look up at him, he gave her a very sinful smirk. His hand that was still roaming her body lowered to her throbbing core, brushing against the button of her jeans. Instead of looking scared or hurt at the way he was handling her, Sakura smirked coyly and reached down, unbuttoning his own jeans. Her response was the sound of her jean's button being ripped apart and a hot, toe curling kiss that had her hands fisting in his own hair.

Yeah, I got a fistful of your hair
But you don't look like you're scared
You just smile and tell me, "Daddy, it's yours."
'Cause you know how I like it,
You's a dirty little lover

If the neighbors call the cops,
Call the sheriff, call the SWAT ‒ we don't stop,
We keep rocking while they're knocking on our door
And you're screaming, "Give it to me baby,
Give it to me mother fucker!"

Sakura managed to push down his jeans with her feet with him aiding her. Her own jeans were long forgotten on the floor of the bedroom. Sasuke groaned lowly against her mouth as Sakura lowered her shaking hands to his boxers, thumbing the waistline before diving in from behind to clasp at his bottom. This earned her a low growl and Sasuke ground his pelvis into hers. The friction this elected made Sakura moan breathlessly in his ear. The feeling of his erection sliding over her clothed arousal caused her eyes to roll back as her mouth fell open in a smile of pleasure. This was so much better than what she imagined after the first time together. The sensations he was giving her made her toes curl and her stomach clench in anticipation.

Oh, look what you're doing, look what you've done (Naruto runs a hand through his hair and down his chest)
But in this jungle you can't run
'Cause what I got for you
I promise it's a killer,
You'll be banging on my chest
Bang bang, gorilla

The lacy underwear Sakura was wearing clashed horribly with the regular tan bra that was barely covering at this point, but she figured Sasuke really did not care when he ripped her bra off and sent it flying across the room. Suddenly, he paused at what he was doing. When Sakura tilted her head to look up at him, she saw he was staring directly at somewhere on her chest. The fact that she knew he would not pointedly and so obviously stare at her chest like that was something that scared her. The hands that were silently rubbing against the seam of her black, lacy underwear were shaking. In that moment, Sakura understood that Sasuke Uchiha was just as scared as she was. About what, she did not know. While he was deep in his thoughts, Sakura reached up and cupped his cheek to force him to look at her. Shocked out of his deep concentration, Sasuke stared into Sakura's green eyes and saw reassurance, as well as the same fear that he was feeling in the pit of his stomach.

What if she ran away like last time?

What if she rejected him?

What if he could not perform for her?!

His thoughts were suddenly broken when his head was brought forward and his lips collided with Sakura's soft, urgent ones. A moment later, her panties landed on the floor beside the bed with a soft thud, along with his boxers.

Ooh, yeah
You and me baby making love like gorillas
Ooh, yeah
You and me baby making love like gorillas

I bet you never ever felt so good, so good (Naruto grabbed his hair in a sign of pleasure)

Sasuke grabbed one of Sakura's legs and hoisted it over his right hip, sliding his tongue over her neck as she let out a low moan.

I got your body trembling like it should, it should

Sakura bit her lip as her body started to tremble underneath the sturdy man above her, and she felt the prodding of what she knew would be the end of her.

You'll never be the same baby once I'm done with you
You, you, you (Naruto raised his head up in emphasis, the lights shining directly on him)

Oh, you with me baby making love like gorillas

Ooh, yeah
you and me baby we'll be fuckin' like gorillas
Ooh, yeah (Yeah, yeah, baby, baby, oh yeah, yeah)
You and me baby making love like gorillas

As Sasuke slid into Sakura with a groan, the woman under him closed her eyes in complete bliss. 'Yes,' she thought as she moaned aloud for him to go harder and she grabbed at his muscular back, 'this is what I have been waiting for.'

Naruto exhaled with a shaky smile as the crowd cheered. His song had the people standing for his performance. During it, he had loosened his tie and his jacket was open to reveal his white dress shirt. The hotter it became, the more his hair actually slicked back as he continuously ran his hands through it. The song that he had chosen, with aid from Tsunade and Kakashi, was something he had actually had Sasuke help him write. With the upbeat notes and tone, it practically screamed Naruto. He had also chosen this genre of music to do one important thing: the sexual tension between Sasuke and Sakura was the entire mood of the song. He bowed to the crowd of people who cheered louder as he straightened the microphone and walked towards backstage. Grinning from ear to ear, he knew this was something that would change everything.

It was then he tripped and fell off the side of the stage right before the curtain fell.

Well, there you go. I appreciate only nice comments and reviews please. Thanks!

Sincerely as ever,

KD
