Sakura couldn't stand Kakashi.
She had thought it a stroke of some divine luck to not only come across the lamp, but be bored enough on her meandering travels back to Konaha to attempt to clean the tarnished brass and make it shine. She'd not expected a genie to slip from the tiny opening. A genie. (She'd tried to kill him, to be honest. Reflexes and whatnot.)
When they had come to an understanding (genie!), Sakura had thought she was perhaps the luckiest kunoichi in the world. But then had come the 'wish rules'. And then she'd had to spend time with her genie. Kakashi.
He was not only a terrible genie, but he was obnoxious. Annoying. Irritating and infuriating and maddening.
Needless to say, she never expected to find herself kissing him. And she certainly never expected to like it.
Boom! Bang! Pop poot poot pop!
Sakura started and pulled away. She blinked, green gaze hazy as she watched the show light up the sky. "Fireworks?"
Kakashi's fingers traced the warm skin just above her collar, paused to brush over her pounding pulse and then continued up her neck. Mismatched eyes were very intent on her mouth and he brushed his thumb across her bottom lip. "Kissing you feels like fireworks."
Sakura's eyes shifted away from the light show to her genie. He was completely intolerable, but then he had to go say things like that. And literally make the sky combust.
She tugged him back to her. After awhile she didn't even hear the fireworks anymore.

A/N: Other reasons why Kakashi-Genie is delightful - firework kisses. (Confession. I want to write a longer story about Kakashi-Genie and his long-suffering master, Sakura. The crack. THE CRACK.)
