A/N: Sorry it's been a while. I would have had this out sooner but I think my computer crashed so I lost the chapter! I'm working off scratch now, unfortunately, because that chapter that got deleted had where I was going with this story. But anyway, I wanted to have this chapter uploaded today because it's My Birthday! (:

Also, the usual chapter length is a little longer for such a long wait. Sorry about that!

The Seal of Trust

Summary: Playboy Uchiha Sasuke and Playgirl Haruno Sakura are finally a couple. Everything's great with them, but after being a playboy and playgirl for so long, can they give it up so easily? SasuSaku Sequel: The Dating Game

Chapter 10 – Charm

The group of teens eventually finished their meal and soon the bill was given to them. They shuffled out of the restaurant, the girls giving a smile in thanks to Antonio and the boys giving a nod. Antonio smiled. "Have a nice day!" he called after them, waving the large sum of money left on the table as his "tip."

Ah, how I love working for the rich, thought the waiter in his mind, fanning himself with the money as money signs appeared in his eyes.

Outside, Naruto rubbed his stomach, his hunger satisfied. He slacked an arm around Hinata, pulling her close as a wide, foxy grin spread across his features. "That was almost as good as your cooking, Hina-chan!" exclaimed the blonde teen, giving his blushing girlfriend a quick peck on the cheek.

"That was nice and all," Ino commented as she twirled a strand of luscious blonde hair in her hand absent-mindedly. "But when am I going to get to go shopping?"

"I'll take you," Shikamaru replied, almost without thinking, with a small shrug of his shoulders.

Ino stopped her pace, staring at her boyfriend with an elegant eyebrow raised. "You will?" she asked, blinking in disbelief. "But you hate shopping with me!"

The lazy genius blinked, staring up into the clouds. He gave another simple shrug. "It's troublesome," he muttered, seeing Ino from his peripheral vision beginning to scowl. Then he turned to her, "But I suppose you're worth it."

Sasuke wrapped his arms around Sakura's waist from behind, his head resting on her shoulder. "The suite. Now," he whispered to her, giving her neck a small nip.

"No, Sasuke-kun, we have to start the fundraiser…"

He scoffed, "Screw the fundraiser. Besides…" he growled against her neck. "You look so…—"

"Sexy?" she cut him off, rolling her eyes.

"…Beautiful."

Sakura's emerald orbs widened, turning around in his arms as she looked at him directly in his eyes. "Really?" she whispered, but as she stared into the seemingly endless pitch-black obsidian orbs of his, she knew he meant it. She smiled at him, wrapping her arms around his neck as she leaned forward, giving him a sweet kiss.

Sasuke smirked in the kiss, sliding his hand to the back of her neck as he pushed her face more forward, his mouth slanting over hers.

"Hey, hey, hey, break it up you two!" Ino and Naruto said simultaneously. Both blondes glanced at each other for a moment, then back at the lip-locking pair.

Sakura pulled back, licking her lips giggling as Sasuke pulled her to his side even closer.

"Yeesh, teme, you just can't keep your hands off her, can you?!" Naruto's remark earned him a blow to the head from the Uchiha.

The raven-haired man clicked his tongue. "Tch, dobe."

"At least I have control of my hormones!"

"What hormones?"

"Why you—!"

"Alright you guys, that's enough!" Tenten announced with a nice, clear voice. "We got to start this fundraiser thing."

"Aw, do we have to?" whined Naruto, ruffling his hair. "It's so stupid, why can't we just enjoy the time we have off from school?!"

"Don't argue with her, Naruto," Neji retorted, arms folded across his chest. Tenten smiled at her pearl-eyed boyfriend.

"But Tenten! What about my shopping time?" Ino asked, arms flailing in the air expressing her distress. "There are so much cute things to buy in Hawaii!"

"You know how Ino-pig gets when she can't get her shopping done," Sakura piped in, her jade green orbs locking with Tenten's chocolate ones.

"Alright, then meet me in my suite in half an hour, and we'll discuss how this is going to work. I'm sure that's enough time for a little shopping done, right Ino-chan?"

"If that's the best you can offer…" Ino mumbled, before pumping her fist in the air, an action that looked rather Lee-like. "Then I'll just have to do the best I can!"

"You know how much we could get done in half an hour, Sakura?" Sasuke whispered against his girlfriend's ear, his tone low and husky as his eyelids drooped lowly. Slowly a smirk spread across his handsome pale face as he put his chin on Sakura's shoulder. She elbowed him lightly in response, blushing.

"Don't forget guys, half an hour!" Tenten called as everyone began to take their leave.

The rest nodded in understanding, each couple going their separate ways till it was time to meet again.

"So, now that we're all here, let's get started," said the bun-haired girl, plopping down beside Neji. Each couple sat with each other, boyfriends with their arms around their girlfriends as their girlfriends leaned against them. "We're selling candy here, so we have to think of ways to get customers to buy sweets…" her voice trailed off.

Naruto began to doze off, his cerulean blue orbs drawing to a close every now and then.

"Naruto-kun, wake up," Hinata whispered, giving him a gentle shove. "We should listen to Tenten-chan."

The blond yawned, stretching his arms. He wrapped them around the female Hyuuga tightly, his head resting at the crook of her neck. Hinata blushed at his actions. "Just a few minutes, Hinata-chan…" he mumbled, leaning against her. He gave her a chaste kiss on the cheek. "I'll wake up… don't worry…"

The pearl-eyed girl blinked when she heard light snoring, raising a hand in front of her mouth as she stifled her giggles.

"…So the best place to sell would probably be places where there's lots of people," Tenten concluded, taking a breath after all her talking.

"Hmm, a place where there's lots of people…" Ino thought aloud, taking her index finger as she looked upwards, tapping her chin in deliberation. "The mall has lots of people!"

"But you'll get distracted, Ino-pig," Sakura stated, moving her position slightly in Sasuke's strong hold.

"How about the beach?" Shikamaru said, his hand straight up as he held it in front of his face, yawning.

"Ooh, good idea, Shika-kun! I do need a tan," said the blonde female, hooking her arm through the his with a breathtaking smile.

"He has a point," added Neji in a matter-of-fact tone. "There are plenty of potential customers there."

"The beach sounds good," Hinata chimed in timidly, pressing her pointer fingers together. She elbowed Naruto gently, causing the boy to make a snort-like sound as he woke up.

"Huh, what?" he said aloud, taking a look around with heavy-lidded eyes, mumbling incoherent words to himself. "Is it ramen time?"

Just then a knock on the door was heard.

(Knock! Knock! Knock!)

"That's weird, I'm not expecting anyone," Tenten said, her eyebrow raising in confusion. "Anyone know who it could be?"

(Knock! Knock! Knock!)

"Coming!" Sakura called, wriggling out of Sasuke's arms (to his displeasure, thus his disapproving growl.) The pink-haired girl made her way towards the door, everyone watching her as she did so, curious who the guest could be.

Unlocking the door, she opened it and immediately emerald colored eyes met with a flash of forest green.

"YOSH!" screamed the being, running inside with packs of luggage following behind. He pivoted on the heel of his foot, turning around and looking back at Sakura. Arm stretching out, his thumb flashed upwards and a wide grin with blinding white teeth shone. "Ah, Sakura-san, you still are as beautiful as a lotus blooming for the first time!"

Sakura twitched. "Ah, Lee! What a… pleasant surprise!" said the pink-haired girl, having taken a few moments to come up with the last two words.

"Lee! What are you doing here?" asked Tenten, speaking what was on everyone's mind at the instant.

"Gai-sensei finished teaching me what his youthfulness knows about youth – for now!" answered Rock Lee. "He said I should take a vacation and present my youthful self among other youths, and I remembered my dear Sakura-san"—at that Sasuke gave a glare to Lee, along with a growl—"had gone to Hawaii to share her beauty with the world, and I thought it would be nice to join her and her comrades!"

"Hey, it's bushy brows!" Naruto exclaimed, having woken up fully by this time. "Whatcha doing here?" Everyone sweat-dropped since he just finished explaining.

However once the youth-proclaimed teen clad in the green jumpsuit opened his mouth to explain again, hand raising as he prepared himself with pointer finger upwards, Ino shouted, "We'll tell him later!" Once Lee closed his mouth, lowering his hand, the rest sighed in relief.

"Now, why is everyone assembled in this youthful quarter?"

"We were talking about the fundraiser," said Shikamaru in a matter-of-fact tone. He held his hand in front of his face, yawning behind it. "Something about the beach selling there, because there's lots of customers… something…"

"And the mall!" chimed in Ino, smiling.

"Should we get started?" Hinata asked, leaning against Naruto's arm.

"Yeah, let's go," Sakura added.

"Just get it over with," Sasuke mumbled against the crook of her neck. "We have more important things to get at—" Sakura elbowed him in the stomach.

"Get your mind out of the gutter," she whispered back to him.

"It wasn't in there, but if you want it to be—" She could feel a smirk forming in his lips, and proceeded to elbowing him once again.

"YOSH!" yelled Lee before running out of the room.

"Ooh, perfect, I need a tan!" Ino exclaimed as the group of once eight, now nine including Lee, walked along the beach. The blonde walked forward, taking a beach towel and waving it out before settling it on the sandy ground. The sun shone brightly in the sky blue atmosphere. The weather was not too hot and not too cold.

"That's not what we're here for, Ino-pig," Sakura said.

"Who says we can't take a little break?" Ino said, plopping down on her towel. She took off her outer clothing, revealing a baby blue halter-top bikini beneath. She pulled her hair out of her ponytail, letting the luscious blonde hair cascade down her shoulders as she lay down. Folding her arms behind her head, she closed her sky blue orbs and sighed in luxury.

Shikamaru had watched her every movement, finding that he couldn't take his eyes off his girlfriend. For once, the thing that held his attention was not the clouds in the sky, but the female being before him. He followed what she had done, lying beside her as he too folded his arms behind his head, deciding to take a nap bathed in the warm sun.

"Yeah, how about a little play before we do all this work?" and eager Naruto said, placing his and Hinata's things beside Ino's as he stripped off his shirt, revealing a tan, toned chest. Hinata blushed hotly at the sight. "Come on, Hina-chan!"

The said girl nodded rapidly, slowly following his action except she took off her knee-length shorts, displaying violet purple bottoms. She left her t-shirt on, but you could see that beneath it held a matching violet top.

The blonde gave a wolf whistle at the sight. Naruto took hold of Hinata's hand, pulling along the coarse sand towards the water. She squeaked when he dunked her in the ocean. "I-It's cold!" she squealed.

"Better warm you up then!" yelled back Naruto, splashing her with the deep seawater. Hinata laughed, holding up her arm to block his splashes.

"Well, I'm going to hit the waves," said Tenten, having left and come back with a surfboard beneath her arms. "Care to join me, Neji?"

Neji glanced at her, a small grin on his pale features as he saw her smiling at him. He nodded, following suit by renting a surfboard as well, following her into the waves as the paddled across the water.

"Come on, Sasuke-kun, let's go join Hinata-chan and Naruto," Sakura said, grabbing her boyfriend's hand as she placed her things near Ino as well (that way they wouldn't lose track of where it was.)

She stripped off her clothing, revealing a rose red halter-top bikini. Sasuke followed suit, showing off the toned muscles of his arms, chest, and legs with his swim shorts. Sakura looked over her shoulder, stopping her movement as she looked at his body, absent-mindedly licking her lips

Sasuke chuckled at her antics, "Like what you see, Sakura?"

She snapped out of her trance-like state, emerald eyes moving up to his onyx ones. She smiled with a blush. He smirked back at her, pulling on the hand that grasped his as he pulled her close. His other free hand tilted her chin up, giving her a chaste yet firm kiss.

Sakura pulled back, her smile still dawning her face as she ran towards the water. The Uchiha chased her, grabbing her around the waist as he pulled her down into the cold water. The pink-haired girl started laughing as she reached the surface, flipping her hair out of her face.

The raven-haired teen kept his hold on her waist, bringing her close as he began to whisper in her ear. "So, care for some sex on the beach?"

Sakura laughed, "Ooh, I love that drink!"

"Who said anything about a drink?"

Sakura turned around in arms, both her hands grabbing hold of his head. With a sly smile, she dunked his head in the water in response to his smooth reply. Quickly the girl swam over to where Hinata and Naruto were, proceeding to having a water fight with the pair.

As Sasuke's face came back to the surface, he noticed a couple of girls smiling flirtatiously at him. One waved while another winked at him. Hmm… they're pretty hot, he thought to himself. He roughly shook his head, eyes roaming around and quickly locating Sakura. I already have a girlfriend though. He twitched, giving Sakura a final look before making his way over to the sexy girls.

He stood up out of the water, and could see their faces swoon as they caught sight of his body. He walked over to them, an enticing smirk on his face.

"Hey," one of the girls greeted with a coy smile.

"Hey yourself," he replied smoothly, running a hand through his wet raven hair.

Sakura's eyes searched the area, noticing that Sasuke was no longer in the ocean. She caught sight of him with four or so girls, from what she would see. Her eyebrows furrowed when she saw the girl run a hand down his biceps, licking her lips. Then she shook her head roughly.

No, I have to trust him, she told herself. He knows he's taken.

I don't know… Inner Sakura answered. He seems pretty friendly with those skanks.

Well, he's probably just selling the candy for the fundraiser, and you have to be a friendly to be a good salesperson, right?

Yeah, but do his customers have to be those sluts?

Sakura frowned at this, I wish you didn't make a good point.

So what, are you just going to stand there and watch the former man-whore do this thing? Or are you going to show him that two can play at this game? After all—

—It takes two to do the tango, she finished her alter ego's statement. Deciding to follow Inner Sakura's advice, and not linger on the hurt and jealousy she was feeling, she stood up, making her way out of the water.

"Oi, Sakura-chan, where are you going?" Naruto asked, questioning her sudden movement to leave.

Sakura looked over her shoulder, a gentle smile playing on her lips. "I'm going to go make get some customers."

Naruto blinked at the tone of her voice, looking at Hinata questioningly as she looked back at him, just as confused at her sudden change in mood.

Once out of the water, she noticed some men checking out her body. She licked her lips, waving at winking at them sexily to entice them. They grinned, accepting her invitation as they made their way over to her.

"Hey boys," she greeted, her tone silky and sweet. "I'm selling some candy, we have everything you can possibly imagine. Care to buy some?" She ran her hand down the side of her body, "You might get a little something extra if you purchase something." She brought her hand back up to her mouth, putting her finger in her lips and biting it lightly.

One of the guys grinned at her, flashing white teeth. He had ruffled golden brown hair with distinct sea green eyes. "I'd like to buy some candy," said the guy, wounding an arm around her waist, pulling her close. "If that candy's you," he leered at her, his hand lowering near her ass.

Sakura's face twisted slightly, putting a hand on the man's (who identified himself as Keith) bare chest in an effort to push him back. "Ooh, someone acts quick," she said, slipping out of his arms, trying to keep her calm composure from the touchy Keith. She took a few steps to back away slightly, keeping a smooth smile on her porcelain face. Her smile faded once she realized she bumped into another man who had been simply walking. She turned around instantly, facing the person she had run into accidentally.

"Oh, sorry about that, cutie," said a guy with jet-black hair and sapphire eyes. He had discrete boyish features, Sakura noticed, as he grinned at her. Sakura gave a courtesy smile back at him, leaning against a nearby wall. He walked up to her, placing an arm with his palm facing the wall as he leaned near her. "Sorry that I don't know your name," he added charmingly. "I'm Kiyo."

This time the pink-haired girl gave him a fake innocent smile. "I'm Sakura, and—"

"—She's taken," finished a low, husky voice.

The black-haired felt a hand on his shoulder before he was roughly pushed back. "Hey, what's your problem, dude?!" Kiyo shouted, glowering at the person who shoved him oh-so-rudely.

Sasuke gave him a glare that beat Kiyo's ten-fold. "I said…" he repeated in a tone that sounded murderous, "she's taken."

"Says who?" Kiyo challenged. Sasuke growled loudly at his answer, as the boy added, "Why don't you let the lady speak for herself?" He brought his attention back to the rosette-haired girl. "Well, Sakura, are you taken?"

Sakura opened her mouth to answer, but it was left open when she saw the look Sasuke was giving her. His onyx orbs transformed into blood red Sharingan, a trait that his family had received from their ancestors that only few present-day received. She remembered how she loved those eyes, but not when they were aimed at her, especially with the tomoes swirling threateningly. However she glared at him, still upset at him for flirting with the random girls earlier that were trying to seduce him.

She turned from Sasuke's haunting orbs to Kiyo, giving him a sweet smile as she put her arm over his shoulder. "No, I'm single," she said to him before giving a coy wink, "and free to mingle."

He grinned, turning back at Sasuke, who's tomoes swirled madly at her answer. "You see?" He turned back to Sakura, still leaning towards her with his arm against the wall. "So, Sakura—" He paused once he felt a tap on his shoulder. He looked over his shoulder, "Look, buddy—" His cheek met a fist against it, having been punched so hard he stumbled to the ground, unconscious.

Sakura gasped, "Sasuke-kun!"

The Uchiha grabbed her wrist, leading her away elsewhere. Sakura, with her mysterious strong inhumane strength, tugged her wrist out of his grip. She looked back at Kiyo, some worry filling her emerald orbs. "You aren't just going to leave him there, are you?!"

Sasuke had stopped in his tracks once he felt Sakura loosen from his grip. This time he took hold of her upper arm, a firm so strong that Sakura tried in vain to get out of it. "What is wrong with you?"

This time, the young prodigy stopped and turned around, facing the rosette haired girl. He brought his face dangerously close to hers.

"Why did you tell that bastard you were single?" he whispered to her, clearly angry as his eyebrows furrowed at the memory.

"Why were you flirting with those sluts?" Sakura retorted, relinquishing his grip of her and folding her arms in front of her chest.

"I wasn't flirting," he retorted back at her. She scoffed at his answer, and he added, "You were the one flirting."

"Because you were doing it first!" Sakura snapped. "I'm not stupid, Sasuke." He glared slightly harder when he didn't hear the familiar "-kun" suffix attached to his name. "I'm just proving to you, two can play at this game."

"Is that what this is to you? A game?" he whispered, long raven bangs hovering over his dark onyx orbs.

Sakura was taken back at his answer. "Of course not!" She replied. "But if we're going to have a relationship, like what Sai and I had—!" She stopped talking, realizing what she had said absent-mindedly. The Uchiha peered at her through his bangs, his expression blank. "I-I mean…" she tried to continue unsuccessfully, her face tilting downwards as her emerald eyes connected with the ground.

Sasuke watched her for a moment before taking a few steps towards her. He grabbed both sides of her face, tiling her face upwards.

"Sasuke, what—?" her statement was cut off as he kissed her fiercely. Her eyes fluttered to a close as he pressed himself to her, kissing her even harder. When he pulled back, her eyes flickered open, revealing brilliant jade orbs once again. Her expression was dazed. "What…?" she whispered to no one in particular.

He continued to hold her face close to his. "You're mine," he murmured to her, quietly yet firmly. "Not Sai's. Not that black-haired sonofabitch's. Mine."

Sakura snapped out of her dazed state. Putting her hands on top of Sasuke's, she removed his hands from his face.

"I don't belong to anyone," she muttered back to him. With that, she turned on her heel, walking anywhere else besides where he was.

The Uchiha watched her retreating back, glowering at her fading shadow.

A/N: Well, I'm glad I got this out! It's around 7:15 and I still have the rest of my birthday to enjoy, so I am going to do just that.

This chapter demonstrates that we are getting into the plot now. Quite the fight those two had, eh?
