Can't Resist

.

.

Anger couldn't begin to describe what she felt as she sat against the cold wall outside. He was an unbelievable – sexy - ass hole. What kind of a sadist is he? She growled and pushed herself off the hard ground making her way back inside to wash herself in the toilets, hoping to rid herself of his musky scent.

"Jese forehead, where the hell did you go?" Ino said tripping over herself as she wrapped an arm around the medic's neck.

"I just felt a bit sick." Sakura lied leading her friend to the table where most of the group were now congregated.

"You just need a bit more to drink!" cheered the blonde plopping down on the nearest chair as Sasuke turned to speak to her.

"Did you see you Itachi?" he asked, his words slurring slightly and Sakura glared at him.

"No."

Sakura lay in her bed the next morning staring blankly at the ceiling. She wasn't sure what she felt anymore, it was all very confusing. For the most part she was angry, really angry but she was also attracted to him. Something she didn't want to admit but the feeling had been creeping up on her since their first encounter and this one did little to stop it. What was he trying to do? She just couldn't figure the man out. She was beginning to get annoyed and this time she wasn't going to let him ignore her.

Sakura climbed out of bed and made her way downstairs to the empty house, her parents were away visiting family and there was a nice card stood on the dresser along with her presents. She smiled and continued on her journey to the kitchen drinking a much needed cup of coffee before plopping in front of the sofa and turning on the T.V. Yes she was planning on confronting Itachi today but one could not do so without a relaxed breakfast.

Itachi had never needed as much will power as he had exerted when leaving Sakura. He headed straight to his apartment to relieve the problem in his boxers and could think of nothing only her. He was certain he had never felt this pull towards someone before; he felt physically drawn to the woman it was disconcerting. He thought he would be able to keep teasing her like he had and stealing a kiss from her causing the woman to get flustered. He wanted her to want him but he didn't anticipate just how much he would want her.

There was no way the next time he saw her he would be able to resist, he needed Sakura Haruno.

Having enjoyed the morning to herself Sakura locked the front door and made her way to the hospital, having not been there in several weeks. Her appearance at the hospital was received with much relief, a team had landed back in bad shape and Sakura without hesitating stepped in to take control of the situation.

"Sakura-Chan, what are you doing here?" Shizune asked her glowing hands working on the man next to Sakura.

"Just checking in, I couldn't help myself." She smiled not realising how much she had missed being a medic.

"It's good to see you back." the brown haired woman smiled as they worked side by side and Sakura couldn't help but notice the wide-eyed stares she was receiving from several junior medics.

"Is there a reason their staring at me?" She said quietly to Shizune as the bleeding stopped flowing from the man beneath her. The woman laughed and Sakura didn't know whether to be concerned or not.

"You're a legend Sakura." she smiled as her patient finally regained consciousness.

"Excuse me?" repeated the pink hair Kunoichi and she watched the wound under her hands knit back together nicely.

"Your famous here, the junior medics have been talking non-stop about wanting to meet the infamous Haruno Sakura." explained Shizune as she finally stopped working on the man below her.

"Are you serious?" asked Sakura allowing the assisting medics to wheel away her now stable patient.

"Yes, why don't you talk to them? They'd love it." She laughed guiding Sakura towards a group of interns.

"As I'm sure you've all noticed this is Haruno-san, Konoha's top medic." Winked Shizune as Sakura shook her head.

"Hello." Was Sakura's simple reply to the eager looking medics before her.

"Ah, Haruno-san it's so good to finally meet you!" said one girl excitedly as Sakura smiled.

"How about we go somewhere I can talk to you all better, hm?" she said leading the group away from the ER to a small outdoors area. Having them all seated in on the grass Sakura spent the next hour taking to them about what makes a good medic and the basics that will get them through their first year.

There was one girl however who captured Sakura's attention, her long dark hair and even darker eyes reminded Sakura eerily of a certain person. Her pondering didn't last long when the young girl finally spoke to her.

"Um, Sakura-san." She began somewhat nervously, "You're Sasuke-san's teammate." The girl asked and it confirmed her earlier suspicions, she was an Uchiha.

"Yes, I was. I take it he's your cousin?" she asked as the girl nodded, she thought it rather strange for an Uchiha to be so shy.

"What's your name? If you don't mind me asking." Sakura asked as the girl looked up blushing.

"It's Kasumi Uchiha." She smiled and Sakura immediately took a liking to this girl.

"So Kasumi-Chan, do you talk much to Sasuke." She inquired pushing down the questions forming in her head about Itachi.

"Not a lot," she said shaking her head and Sakura's expression fell a little. "His brother is to be our next clan leader so their family are slightly more important than mine, if you understand." She said shyly and it had never occurred to her that there were certain hierarchy within the Uchiha clan.

"Who Itachi?" she asked not liking the flutter in her stomach as his name rolled off her tongue.

"Yes, do you know him?" the girl quizzed and Sakura saw a spark flare in her eyes at his name.

"Yes he...trains me." Sakura answered unsure what information to give away but the girls eyes sparkled fiercely.

"Itachi-san will be such a good clan leader." She suddenly said Sakura watched her fascinated.

"Why?"

"He's so kind and caring, he helped me with my Katon. I was always so far behind everyone but Itachi spent time teaching me." She said proudly and Sakura almost fell back in disbelief...Itachi was kind and caring.

"You are talking about the guy with the long hair, right?" she asked and the Kasumi laughed.

"Yes, I know he doesn't seem like it and perhaps he would get angry if he knew I was telling you this but Itachi is very kind deep down. I don't know why he acts so indifferently in company." She answered as Sakura stared at her bewildered.

The pink haired ANBU growled angrily come the end of the week with no sign of Itachi, she would soon be having words with her mentor for sending her captain away on missions so often. This was the last thing Sakura needed, time being dragged out and it would soon be forgotten and she would never get to quiz him over her birthday night.

She left training in a foul mood, it also did not help that she had announced to her parents that she was planning on getting her own apartment that morning. They had seemed upset rather than angry at her; she guessed it was just their sadness at her growing up. Sakura was due to meet the landlord and view the available apartments that evening so she went home to a very emotional mother and changed into her plain white sundress.

"You must be Haruno-san?" said the old man as she approached the front of the building, Sakura tried to push down the images of Itachi and that woman the few weeks previous. Certain emotions she refused to call jealousy.

"Yes Kagawa-san." She replied outstretching a hand to shake his.

"Follow me, we've a lovely place on the third floor that's just opened up." Sakura wanted the ground to swallow her, if it was Itachi's apartment she would die.

Thankfully the man passed the door she was certain was Itachi's and led her down towards the end of the hall before stopping at number thirty-seven.

"Now Ms Haruno, this is one of our nicest lets." He said and Sakura resisted rolling her eyes as he unlocked the door and she stepped inside. It was a very plain but well kept apartment. There was a small open plan kitchenette and living area, a small bathroom and her bedroom.

"What do you think?" he asked as she walked around the room with a goofy grin on her face, it was her own apartment. She had dreamed of this moment since she was a Genin, it made her feel old.

"I'll take it!" she replied smiling as the man drew out the paper work for her to go over. She was left in the room alone when he got called away and he told her to close the door over when she was done. It was nice just walking around the apartment, checking her view of the street below, thankful her apartment faced the front.

After spending anther few minutes in the room Sakura was ready to leave so she closed the door behind her and made her way back down the hall. It didn't register with her that a certain door had opened as she walked in her happy stupor until a strong hand grabbed her arm pulling her into the room. Sakura was about to scream when a mouth covered her own and she immediately knew who the man was.

Itachi had trapped Sakura to his apartment door and ravished her mouth. It was slightly pathetic of her to resist him so easily but she was too worked up to care until she heard the zipper at the back of her dress slowly be dragged down.

"Stop." She said angrily managing to push the already shirtless man off her. Her eyes couldn't resist wandering over his body hungrily as his hair fell loose around his shoulders, making him look sexier than she thought possible.

"Do you really want me to stop?" he asked his arm either side of her, trapping her against the door.

"That's not the point, you ignored me." She snapped putting her hand on his chest when he started leaning into her again.

"I was on a mission." He replied flatly but the smirk on his face did little to convince her.

"Itachi." She growled when he didn't stop moving.

"You sound so sexy when you say my name like that." He whispered and she tried to ignore the feelings coursing through her as he said that.

"I'm serious, what are playing at." She demanded an answer but once again he claimed her lips and she couldn't help but respond when his hands touched the bare skin of her back, slowly working the dress off her body.

The dress landed at her feet and she stepped over it as he began leading her to his bedroom, never breaking the kiss or allowing her to protest. It was a few more steps before she was gently placed on the soft duvet and she opened her eyes allowing them to ogle the man stripping in front of her.

"Itachi wait, I need to know why?" she asked her mind conflicting with her body in terms of the Uchiha now straddling her.

"Does it matter?" he said softly as if not knowing the answer either and Sakura wanted to press him on it further but her aroused state was too much for her to begin questioning things now.

Itachi bent down kissing her again and she wrapped her hands around his shoulders pulling him closer to her. His hands ran over her naked stomach causing it to tighten at his touch and they soon found their way to her covered breasts. He flicked his thumb over her nipple and then rolled it between his fingers, her body arching in response. He moved from her lips to her neck pausing for a moment before moving further south, the burning between Sakura's legs multiplied as he reached her breasts. Itachi took a lace covered nipple in his mouth sucking on it and Sakura moaned softly, burying her hands in his hair massaging the back of his head as he continued soaking her thin bra.

When her back arched again he took the opportunity to un-hook the bra and continued his ministrations on her bare skin. Sakura sighed contently as he continued what he was doing. Itachi stopped his actions after having given each breast enough attention and he trailed kisses down her stomach until he reached the band of her lacy nude underwear. Itachi was turned on at the sight of her in such sexy lingerie and allowed his hands to remove the obtrusive panties continuing his previous work.

Sakura blushed at the sight of Itachi's head between her legs as she spread herself to allow him further access. He kissed lightly at the top of her most intimate anatomy and Sakura shivered in delight when his tongue plunged between her lips. His hands cupped her ass cheeks raising it as he sucked and licked hungrily at her clit. The groans and purrs from Sakura were sending him into over drive as his erection tightened in his boxers.

"Oh kami, Itachi." She groaned rolling her hips as his pace quickened, he removed one hand from her rear and without warning sunk it into her core as she gasped loudly in surprise.

Her breathing was harsh and the rocking of her hips became more pronounced as she called out his name whilst he curled his finger into a hook, thrusting it back and forth.

"Just there." She groaned as his finger worked in the spot she found the most pleasure, his tongue pushing down harder on her clit. She let out a particularly loud sound when her walls began contracting and he worked his finger twice as hard as her body shuddered once her orgasm hit. He slowed down his actions and placed soft kisses, working his lips back up her body to her mouth.

He kissed her slowly and passionately allowing his hard member rub against her thigh and she felt bad for his condition. She stopped kissing him and proceeded to roll him over removing his boxers once he was on his back. Itachi watched in anticipation as she straddled him, allowing his cock to sit between the fold of her vagina. It was almost unbearable for him to sit whist she teasingly lifted her hips but let his penis slide down her folds and not into her slick core.

"Sakura." he growled warningly and the woman on top of him smirked.

"What? I could very easily pull away right now and walk out the door, I think it's the least I-" she was abruptly cut off when Itachi flipped her over with lightening speed as he positioned himself above her and Sakura gulped.

"I did warn you." He smirked closing his eyes as he sank himself into her hot tightness and Sakura mewled with delight as he stretched and filled her. He thrust in and out of her slowly, savouring the long awaited moment, amazed at how perfectly they fit. He kissed her neck as her hips rocked in time with his thrusts and he groaned as her tight walls clamped down on him. He wasn't going to last long and she wrapped her legs around him allowing for deeper penetration. It was all Itachi needed when his breathing became harsh and his thrusting faster. Sakura's coaxing for him to move faster caused his head to spin with arousal, her voice was hypnotic as she called his name in pleasure. Itachi came hard and fast sinking his face into her shoulder as he rode off the orgasm, falling to rest his body on hers as her chest heaved heavily from her own stimulation.

He felt her soft hands play with his hair as his eyes closed allowing himself to relax in their intimate embrace. After a few minutes he pulled out of her, falling on the bed beside Sakura. The woman stared at him and Itachi turned his smirking face to look at her. The sheen of sweat across her chest caught in the sunlight and her flushed cheeks made her seem radiant.

"What now?" she asked almost embarrassed, Sakura as always never thought about consequences before taking actions. She lay beside Itachi not feeling uncomfortable but she didn't want to hang around if perhaps there wasn't something more to this.

"You ask too many questions." He smirked closing his eyes but he felt her body shift as if to sit up and he grabbed her wrist preventing her doing so. "You also act too quickly." He grumbled rolling over to spoon the woman next to him and he enjoyed the feeling of her hands in his as she relaxed into the embrace.

Sakura was relieved that Itachi didn't want her to leave because she herself wasn't ready to leave him. It was foolish of her to let herself believe that this was potentially something more than it actually was but she let her hand take a hold of his as his chest pressed up against her back.

"You're still an ass hole." She muttered closing her eyes and she felt, rather than heard his soft chuckle into her back.

"Oh really." He said amused kissing her shoulder as she sighed.

"Yes, but someone told me your a bit of a softy really." She laughed thinking of the young Uchiha medic.

"Really?" he inquired believing she had made it up, pacing another kiss on her shoulder.

"Really." She confirmed allowing sleep to take over when Itachi pulled a warm blanket over them.

.

Sakura was awakened by the feel of something tickling her face and her eyes groggily forced themselves open to see a mass of black before them. She pushed herself up on the bed where her face had been nestled at Itachi's back, his hair tickling her nose. The man beside her was sound asleep and she got out of the bed putting her underwear back on. She wasn't sure how she felt about what had just happened.

One part of her was craving for seconds but she also didn't want to be just another woman to him, the woman she saw in his bed popped into her mind and she frowned.

"Get back into bed." Itachi grumbled sounding tired, turning to look at Kunoichi fixing her bra.

"Is that an order captain." She smirked as he grinned at her.

"Yes Haruno." He ordered in his 'captain' voice and she laughed.

"Well captain, sorry to disobey orders but I did tell my parents I was only going to be a couple of hours." She sighed looking around for her dress leaving his bedroom and picking it up at the door.

She heard Itachi get up and follow her into the room, she was thankful he had pulled his trousers on as he came up behind her, zipping up the dress for her. His hands curved around her waist and pulled her into his chest as he rested his chin on her shoulder. She loved the feel of his torso pressed so closely into her back as he wrapped his arms tightly around her stomach.

"Stay." He whispered and it took all her will power to say no to the man behind her. He released his grip and she looked back at him as he made his way to the kitchen taking a bite of an apple. She shook her head and decided this man was forever going to puzzle her.
