Narrowing her eyes at the little orange book her former teacher was reading, she took a deep breath and downed her sake in one gulp. He was being completely rude and yet it really shouldn't have surprised her that he was reading it. It was Kakashi after all, and that was just one of his little quirks. But honestly, after agreeing to come and spend time with them at the pub and then go read his book instead of talking with them…
Okay, so he hadn't agreed at first. She'd had to do some…persuading to get him to even join them tonight. But he had agreed eventually! That counted for something! So by that reasoning (in her alcohol-addled brain), he shouldn't be reading his book.
"Kakashi-senpai, if you don't put that book away, so help me—I'll shove it so far up your ass you won't be able to recover it," she threatened, glancing at him from the corner of her eye. Her threat caught the attention of the other three boys at the table as the older Jounin pulled his face away from his book long enough to give her a doubtful look.
"Oh? Since when have you learned Sennen Goroshi A Thousand Years of Pain?" Kakashi retorted, going back to his Icha Icha book almost immediately afterwards.
Glaring at him fully now, she grinded her teeth together before replying, "Let me try it this way then: if you don't put that book away and join the conversation, I will give a certain part of your anatomy a jolt so strong, you'll be numb for a month."
It had gone deathly silent where Naruto, Sasuke and Sai were seated but she did not dare look over at them. If she looked away, Kakashi wouldn't take her seriously—and she was dead serious.
Despite the promise of pain, the elder Jounin simply looked at her (book still in hand, damn it) and raised a silver brow. "Oh? Is that a promise?"
"Don't patronize me, Hatake!" she growled out, clenching a fist and shaking it in front of his face as warning. He remained unruffled. Damn him…
"Who said I was? Besides, it sounds kinky—not threatening."
Face now aflame with anger and embarrassment, she threw her hands up in the air and turned away from him. Crossing her arms and slouching in their booth seat, she glared at the tabletop. She wasn't going to follow through her threat now and they both knew it. Although to her relief, he finally did close that nasty little book of his and join them, Naruto easily pulling the older man into conversation to lighten the mood.
A hand suddenly skimmed just below her skirt, teasing the exposed flesh of her thigh and knee. Keeping her surprise in check, she stole a glance at the man next to her, his attention on the loud blond across from them. He was either doing it unconsciously or was purposefully not looking at her; more than likely, it was the latter.
The hand skimmed farther up, slipping beneath her skirt and kneading the flesh there. Sakura suppressed the shudder that his teasing produced. He was definitely doing it on purpose now, and damn him, it was NOT funny!
Stealthily, she placed her hand his knee and sent a small pulse of chakra through it as a warning (and as payback). His leg jerked slightly from the jolt, and his eye briefly glanced at her sideways. The look he sent her in that one glance told her that she was going to be getting more than she had bargained for tonight.
Giggling, she sent another jolt of chakra through his knee, loving the reaction she got from it. She had to admit that secret relationships made teasing all that more fun, especially when the slightest touch from him sent a jolt of desire to the pit of her stomach.
