Hello! Sorry I haven't updated in so long! I've been trying to beat Final Fantasy X. That's a horrible excuse, but it's true. Gomenasai, my bad.

Disclaimer: Itachi doesn't even know Sakura. So of course I can't own Naruto.

Breaking the Rules& Revenge

Sakura awoke to a thunderous sound. Then she sighed in relief when realizing it was just Kisame's snoring. Sakura slid out of bed and put her hands on her hips.

'Sleeping on the job. That isn't very professional.' Sakura thought.

'Duh! This is Kisame remember!' Inner Sakura laughed.

Sakura noticed the door was still cracked. It left just enough space for Sakura to slide through.

'This is one of the times that I'm thankful I'm so skinny.'

Sakura tiptoed to the bathroom across from her bedroom. The lights were off but a small bit of moonlight shone through the one window inside. Sakura shuddered as her bare feet dragged on the cold tile. She carefully lifted the glass frame of the window and locked it in place. Sakura wasn't trying to escape; they'd catch her way before she even got half way to Konoha.

Even if it was against Itachi's rules, Sakura needed to see the outside, if only for a moment. She climbed out of the window and dashed onto the roof. Sakura hugged her legs to her chest. She sighed as she looked up at the crescent moon in the midnight sky.

'I wonder what you're doing right now, Naruto-kun, Kakashi-san, Tsunade-sama . . . Sasuke-kun.' Sakura thought with a sad smile.

Sakura closed her eyes and lay back with her hands behind her back.

'That's stupid, they're sleeping.' Inner Sakura said matter-of-factly.

'Yeah, they're probably not even looking for me. I'm sure Tsunade-sama misses me, Naruto-kun too. Not so much Kakashi-san. And Sasuke-kun . . . um,

No comment.' Sakura sighed.

'How'd we get into this mess, dammit?!' Inner Sakura moaned.

'You mean me. I'm the one who has to deal with these Akatsuki assholes!' Sakura retorted.

'Deidara-kun's not an asshole!' said Inner Sakura.

'So he's –kun now? I guess I could call him that . . .' Sakura's thoughts trailed off.

Sakura yawned and cracked her eyes open to see a crimson-eyed man glaring at her. Sakura blinked a few times, and then snapped out of her daze. She would have done as she did before, and put her hands in front of her. It seemed to be an impulse now. Only one small problem.

Her wrists were being pinned to the shingles roof.

"What's your problem Uchiha?" Sakura mentally slapped herself.

'Stupid question! You're the one breaking the rules!!' Inner Sakura chuckled.

Itachi narrowed his eyes at the obvious stupidity of the question just asked.

"I should be asking you that. You did exactly what I told you not to do." Itachi stated no emotion present.

Sakura fumed. She kicked and struggled violently. Itachi's grip had not wavered, nor had he budged. And neither had his glare. Sakura turned her head to the side, and let out a loud sigh of defeat.

"I needed some fresh air. Kisame was asleep, so I took advantage of that factor." Sakura explained.

"Sakura-san, don't talk to me unless you're willing to look at me while doing it." Itachi stated.

Sakura nodded sheepishly in response, and turned her head back to face Itachi.

"Um, okay . . . But I would really appreciate it if YOU GOT THE HELL OFF OF ME!" Sakura yelled the last few words.

Itachi's eye's shifted to the left, as if contemplating something of great importance. After a few moments of thought he brought his attention back to Sakura. Her expression was a mix of anger, fear, and annoyance. She apparently wasn't very fazed by her current position.

"No." Itachi smirked, hoping to get a rise out of Sakura.

Sakura scowled, and her face began turning hues of red.

"Oh. Well . . . fuck you Uchiha." Sakura's eye's drooped closed.

Itachi sighed. 'Sleep deprivation. I guess I'll have to punish her later.'

He stood and picked up Sakura bridal-style. Itachi hopped off the roof and entered through the front door. As he walked down the hallway Sakura sighed, as she cuddled. Itachi stiffened. He hated cuddling. He even hated it when his brother did it. Itachi faltered in his footsteps, due to his current train of thought.

He looked back down at Sakura. She only shifted slightly.

'She sleeps like a rock. That's not natural.' Itachi thought.

Itachi opened Sakura's door and stepped inside. He walked over to her bed, and then let her slide off of his arms. Itachi's gaze drifted to the floor.

'She hasn't fixed the hole in the floor. She took the sheet and blanket off too.' Itachi thought. 'Apparently she really doesn't like me . . .'

Itachi tapped Kisame on the shoulder. Kisame wearily got up, and then trudged out the door. Itachi took his place in the roller chair. He kept a leveled stare on Sakura as she slept. With Sharingan Itachi watch the slow rise and fall of the pink haired kunoichi chest.

Sakura awoke to the sight of Itachi sleeping lightly in a roller chair. Sakura slid off of the bed and tiptoed to the door. She took a last glance at Itachi before pushing the door opened. Sakura crossed the hallway to the bathroom. There was a comb next to the sink; she ran it through her hair swiftly.

As Sakura turned around something caught her eye. A black bottle of shampoo. Then a diabolical plan to gat back at Itachi took root. A sly grin made its way to Sakura's lips as she sped down the hallway, and into the kitchen. She rummaged through multiple cabinets until pulling out a small red bottle labeled: Pink Dye. Sakura rushed back to the bathroom and checked the label on the shampoo.

Property of Uchiha, Itachi. You touch, you die.

Sakura giggled. 'Of course he puts death threats on his shampoo.'

'Okay, even you have to admit that's pretty funny.' Inner Sakura chuckled.

'For once, I agree.'

Sakura unscrewed the cap of shampoo and poured the contents of the red bottle in it. She screwed the cap back on and trudged to the kitchen to make breakfast. As she entered the kitchen she glanced at the black clad Uchiha leaning on the counter.

"Why didn't you hit me, let alone punish me?" Sakura asked as she brushed past the crimson eyed man.

"I prefer to have you awake to do so." Itachi stated.

"I swear, you must be sadistic." Sakura chuckled as she pulled out a frying skillet from a cabinet.

"If you want sadistic, ask for punishment from Kisame." Itachi smirked.

"Good point." Sakura didn't want to think about that.

"After breakfast, that's when you will face punishment. I cannot guarantee that your food will stay down though. . ." Itachi trailed off.

Sakura waved hoping he would stop talking. "Okay, okay I get it!"

Sakura pulled some eggs from the refrigerator and placed them on the counter. She reached into her pocket, soon realizing there was not one there.

'You're wearing Itachi's shirt baka! You forget things to easily.' Inner Sakura sighed.

Itachi just remained in the same place, watching intently as Sakura gathered her materials for breakfast. 'I hope she knows what she's doing. I don't want Deidara making the kitchen explode again.'

Sakura turned around and raised an eyebrow to the staring Uchiha.

"Are you just gonna sit there and stare all day?" Sakura questioned beginning to be annoyed by the constantly staring man.

"No . . . I'll be in the bathroom." Itachi walked away.

Sakura grinned. She was going to have sweet, sweet revenge. Even if Itachi would beat the crap out of her later for doing it.
