CHAPTER 8

Sakura was surprised to see Mr and Mrs Watanabe at the door steps. The kids raced to them happily and hugged them. They wanted to give a surprise visit to the kids since they missed them. The kids were ecstatic to have their grandparents. Sakura went upstairs to put sleeping Kari in his cradle while others sat down in the living room. Sakura came back downstairs and went to the kitchen to make tea.

"How are you Sakura?" Mrs Watanabe said entering the kitchen.

"I am fine Mrs Watanabe." Sakura answered smiling.

"Sakura no need to call me Mrs Watanabe. Call me Yui." Yui said taking the glasses from the shelf. Sakura nodded her head. They took tea in the living room and chatted for some time.

After dinner Yui and Sota, their grandparents declared that they will be leaving for their home. However Sasuke graciously offered them to stay for the night. Since the rooms were already occupied, Yui and Sota decided to share a room with their grandkids.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Sakura opened her eyes lazily and looked at the clock. It was six in the morning. She snuggled to the warm body beside her. Her nose was buried in the black hair. She took a deep breath of Sasuke's cologne, she loved it. Sasuke's nose was buried in the crook of her neck. His steady breath warming up her body. His arms were on her waist, hugging her close to his body while her fingers were knotted in his hair.

It had become natural for them to cuddle each other while in bed. They always woke up tangled with each other and they weren't shy about that. Sometime she could even feel Sasuke's fingers making circles on her hip or thighs. She also realised that their equation has changed since the fierce kiss they had shared on the passage near the kid's bedroom. Sasuke was always the one to get angry when anyone touches, but now he had lost his shyness.

Sakura heaved and contented sight and untangles herself from Sasuke and went to bath. Later she made breakfast and everyone sat down at the table. The kids were ecstatic to share all the experiences with their mother and father to their grandparents.

It was a nice summer day so they decided to go fishing for relaxation. Sakura and Yui packed a picnic bag while Sasuke and Sota took the fishing rods with them. The kids were thrilled to go fishing. Even Kari was wide awake and giggling happily in Sakura's arms.

The lake was unoccupied so it was relatively easy to find a good place. Sakura and Yuki placed the blanket and sat on it while Sasuke and Sota went with the kids to do fishing.

Sakura noted that Sasuke was good at fishing. I wonder if there is anything he isn't good at. He had caught five fishes in fifteen minutes. Sasuke had Yuki in his lap holding her hand in his and the fishing rod. She clapped enthusiastically as Sasuke yet again caught a fish. She could see a small smile on Sasuke's usually flaccid face.

Sota was also good at fishing. He was clapping and encouraging Kaoru as he was using all his strength to pull the fish from the water that had caught in his fishing rod. Kaoru caught a small fish but the happiness on his face was enormous. He came running to Sakura and Yui with the fish in his hand.

"Mommy, grandma, look I got a fish!" Kaoru said with a huge grin thrusting his fish toward them which was shaking from lack of air. "Very good, honey. We could make you fish curry tonight with this." Yui said smiling.

However Kaoru's smile disappeared immediately. He looked at the quaking fish in his hand with a frown.

"What's the matter honey?" Sakura asked concerned.

"Mommy I don't want to kill this fish." Kaoru said sadly.

"Then we should put them in the water where they belong." Sasuke said to Kaoru with an understanding look.

"Thanks Daddy." Kaoru smiled.

They released the fishes in the water they had caught. Even though their fishing didn't go as they had planned. Sakura was happy that the kids had learned a new lesson. Later they all sat down on the blanket and ate the food and returned to their home.

At nightfall Yui and Sota resolved to return to their house in the Sand village. This time, however the kids didn't cry. They bid goodbye to their grandparents smiling and promising them to come and meet them soon.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Sakura was home alone with Kari, who was sleeping in his cradle. Sasuke had taken Yuki and Kaoru with him to the training ground. The black clouds had started to gather and heavy winds were passing causing the trees to sway with the force. Sakura immediately took the dried clothes inside and went upstairs to shut all the windows.

As she went to close the window of the kid's room she saw a hooded man walking on the other side of the fence. Uchiha mansion is very far from the other settlements, so people don't pass by the mansion often. The man was looking at the house very keenly. As soon as the man saw Sakura standing near the window sill he scurried away. It is the same man I saw at the park. Is this just a coincidence or is he really following us? Sakura mused.

She could feel that something was wrong with that man but she disregarded it and went back to shut the other windows.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Sakura along with Sasuke and the kids arrived at Ino's house for the engagement party. Sakura was dressed in the green gown. Her hair was pinned into a bun giving a clear view of her bare back and elongated neck. She wore an emerald coloured necklace and earring which she had borrowed from Hinata. Sasuke was in a tuxedo with a dark blue shirt underneath. He looked as hot as ever. Yuki was dressed in the pink princess frock. Her hair was let down which came down to her mid back in waves. She looked cute in her dress. She also had a white necklace and earring that Sakura had got on her birthday from her mother. Kaoru looked as dashing as his father. He appeared to be a mini version of his father with the similar dress. Kari was dressed in a blue shirt and brown trousers.

Every eye turned to them as they entered the room. Sakura could hear people murmuring about them. Ino burst through the crowd smiling and hugged her best friend. Ino was in a light blue gown with pearls decorated on the neckline. It beautifully complemented her blue eyes. Her hair was let down into curls rather than her usual pony tail.

"Sakura, Sasuke, You came!" Ino screamed. Sakura rolled her eyes at her friend's enthusiasm. "Of course I will come."

"Hey kiddos!" Ino said giving a high five to each of them.

"Hi, aunt Ino" the kids chorused.

"Everyone else have already reached, come I will take you to them." Ino said a made way through the crowd towards their group of friends. As she had said all of Sakura's friends have already come and were drinking and chatting. They all greeted the newcomers and went back to their drinks.

Sakura went towards the group of her girlfriends with Kari and the kids while Sasuke went to his friends. Kari was contented in playing with her necklace and the kids were looking at the room in awe. Ino's mom had outdone in decorating their house. The house was garnished with white and blue roses. It looked very exquisite. Sakura and the kids took cocktail fruit drink while Sasuke took wine. Sakura scanned the room and was not surprised to see girls ogling Sasuke.

Sasuke will always have fan-girls wherever he goes. Sakura rolled her eyes at their shameless gawking. Sakura felt jealous that she could never compare herself to Sasuke. He was like a forbidden fruit. He was handsome and hot as hell while she was plain. She knew she would have to leave Sasuke when the murderers will be found. She sighed woefully then went back to the conversation with her friends.

From the other table Sasuke watched from the corner of his eyes as the men near Sakura gazed at Sakura perversely, of which Sakura was ignorant. He could feel his fingers twitching to punch the faces of the men eyeballing her. She looked stunning in that green dress. He loved that dress already. The dress complemented her curves very nicely.

Sasuke had started to form a liking towards Sakura. He liked to cuddle with her in the bed. He liked her cooking. He liked how lovingly she took care of the kids. He liked how she smiled and laughed at the kids joke. He knew he sounded like a love sick fool and that he will develop feelings towards her at the end of the mission if he gets more attached to her. Fugaku has once told him that love is weakness of men. Sasuke had determined that he will not get weak from love. He promised himself not to fall in love with Sakura.

Sakura got up to refill the empty glass of Kaoru. On the way she meets Ino's mom.

"Hello aunty. How are you?" Sakura asks smiling.

"Oh dear, I am fine. I am so happy that Ino is finally getting settled and Shikamaru is also a nice boy." Ino's mom says with a fond smile. "Anyways how are you dear? It's been a long time since you have come."

"I am fine, aunty. It's just that I was busy." Sakura says sheepishly. Ino's mom was like a mother to her too. When Sakura's mom had died she had been a great help to recover her from the depression. Ino's mom tickled Kari's chin playfully and he giggled. She stroked his hair. "I just love Kari. He is so energetic. Would you mind if I hold him?" Ino's mom asked Sakura hopefully.

"Of course you can have him, aunty." Sakura said and handed him to her. Ino's mom's eyes lit up happily. Sakura smiled.

"I will come to take him when I leave. Till then you can have him." Sakura said.

"Oh thank you, dear."

Sakura smiled and left to the table to refill the drink. Someone knocked into her and spilled the drink on her dress.

"Hey watch where you are going." The person said irately.

Sakura looked up to see Mai and her cronies sneering at her. She knew that Mai had purposely spilled the drink on her. She rolled her eyes at them.

"Seriously Mai, I think you are the one who is blind enough to bump someone who is standing in front of you. I suggest you get your eyes checked immediately." Sakura said with a fake smile. Mai flushes in embarrassment and grited her teeth angrily.

Sakura moved to the restroom to clean her dress. She went to the basin and cleaned her dress. The front of her dress had stuck to her skin almost making it see through. She angrily splashed water on to her face and looked in the mirror. A redhead girl was standing behind her glaring at her reflection. Sakura furrowed her eyebrows. Do I know her? I haven't seen her before, so why is she glaring at me? The redhead snorts at her in disgust, then gets out of the room swaying her hips. Sakura looks back at her reflection in the mirror. "I seem to attract enemies everywhere." She whispers softly then cleans her face and return back to her table.

Ino immediately corners her with her brows furrowed. "What happened to your dress?"

"Oh, that Mai spilled her drink on me." Sakura said

"I shouldn't have invited her. I knew she would cause some problem. But her father is my father's best friend, so I couldn't avoid inviting her family." Ino said furiously.

Sakura gave her a small smile. "It's alright Ino. Anyways I will be going home. My dress is soaked. So have a nice day Ino. I will talk to you later." Sakura shakes her hand with her friends. She takes Kari from Ino's mother and goes back home with Sasuke and the kids.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Sakura helped the kids to undress and get them into their nightdress. Sakura then went to her bedroom to get changed. She stood wide eyed at the entrance of the room. Sasuke was shirtless only in his boxers. Sakura blushed. Even though they cuddled at night Sakura was still shy to see Sasuke bare chested.

Sasuke however was not afraid to get half naked in front of Sakura. He knew he looked hot and that any girl would swoon over him. Sakura immediately averted her eyes and went to her closet and took her nightdress. She dashed into the bathroom. She reached behind to pull the zipper down. She frowned when the zipper didn't come down. She jumped up and down to get it undone. After fifteen minutes she panted leaning on the tiled walls. She had gotten the zipper done easily while dressing up but now it was proving to be hard to get it undone. She hadn't worn a bra since her dress was below her mid-back.

Sakura grumbled; she had no other choice than to ask Sasuke for help. She slowly opened the door and poked her head outside. Sasuke was still in his boxers looking out of the window. The lights in the room were off; the only glow in the room was from the moonlight.

Sakura watched as the moonlight flooded to his face giving him a look of an angle. A Fallen angel. His raven hair shined in the moonlight. She could see the moonlight reflecting in his dark eyes. She stood there mesmerised by his beauty. She could have stood there for hours looking at his gorgeous face but now she had an important matter in her hand.

Sakura cleared her throat loudly breaking the spell. Sasuke twisted his head and looked at her. Sakura swallowed and fisted her dress in her hands in nervousness.

"Um…Sasuke?"

"Hn."

"Well…ah…um…can you…can you undo my zipper? I…I think it's got stuck." Sakura said looking down at the carpet apprehensively. Sakura looked up uncertainly as he walked towards her and came to stand behind her.

Sakura gripped her dress to the point of tearing it. It was just so simple job to just pull the zipper but she was sweating and nervous as hell. She could feel Sasuke's warm breath on the back of her neck making her shiver. Sasuke gently touched the bare skin below her neck. His other hand came to her waist to hold her still. Her breath hitched from the unexpected touch. Even Sasuke's breath became ragged. Sakura was relieved to find that Sasuke was also affected by the touch but she was too getting light-headed to think deep into it.

Sasuke trailed his fingers leisurely just above the dress. He took the zipper in his fingers and tugged at it. He frowned when it didn't budge. He pulled at it more forcefully, but it still remained unresponsive. He peered on the zipper, unconsciously getting closer to her. Sakura blushed from the closeness. The zipper was tangled in the strands of the dress which had come loose on the back of the dress.

"It's got stuck to some threads. I will have to first straighten it out." Sasuke's breathe fanned over her. "O-Ok." Sakura stammered.

Sakura gasped when she felt Sasuke's soft lips on her skin. Sasuke pulled on the threads which were stuck with the zipper with his teeth. His nose was unintentionally nudging her back and she could feel his soft upper lips brushing her skin.

Sakura was so stunned that she didn't even knew when the zipper had come undone and the dress skidded down onto the floor. She immediately sprinted to the bathroom, leaving her dress scattered on the floor. She slammed the door shut and leaned on it panting. Shit, shit, shit, shit, how embarrassing! I just got naked in front of my husband…no…fake husband. That also in my green panties which Ino had given me on my birthday which hardly covered my ass. Oh god, how will I face him?

Sakura got dressed in her night dress and paced in the bathroom trying to think of something to avoid facing Sasuke. After ten minutes she opened the door and tiptoed out of the bathroom. She heaved out a relieved sigh when she Sasuke's sleeping figure with his back towards her. She blushed when she saw her green gown neatly folded on the night table. She silently climbed onto the bed and laid down.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
