Author's notes: Hey, it's me again; sorry it took me a while to update, I was working on said chapter for a while. Just also here to mention how much I am loving this story so far; it's really fun and I love the feedback from you guys, including the hits I've gotten and the reviews and how positive they are, I really appreciate them XD. This chapter contains LEMON just so you know (that's probably why I rated it M just in cases). Yes this is the climax of the story. The main event and probably the best part (depending on what kind of person you are :P). This is basically my first time writing lemon scenes, and no doubt I didn't do as well as I thought :S, but I really tried, so lemme know how I did :). Hope you like this chapter, so enjoy .
CHAPTER TWENTY NINE: A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP
Sakura was mentally surprised when Kakashi didn't stop her, but only stared at her in the same way he always did: calm as usual. But that didn't mean she would stop right there; Sakura felt the fabric on her fingertips and almost hesitated to remove his mask, but her heart led her on.
Slowly, the pink haired medic pulled down the dark blue coloured material, to slowly reveal the man's nose, slowly uncovering his lips and then it was completely off his face. Up close Kakashi was even hotter than Sakura had thought; that she couldn't deny, definitely not. She felt like screaming like a little school girl and lunge at him, but she was so entranced by the beauty of his face, that she didn't realise she was staring at him for so long, and that he was staring at her just as much.
"Sakura-chan…" Kakashi tried to pull Sakura out of her reverie and raised an eyebrow.
The pink haired medic mentally shook her head and gazed up to meet the taller Jounin's incompatible eyes and a blush flushed over her cheeks like water. She just stared in awe at the man's face as if she had never seen a face before, which in this case, she had never seen a face like his before…ever. Of course Sakura had seen her fair share of good-looking guys in her life, but Kakashi…he was something completely different compared to them.
She gently brushed her thumb over his slightly parted lips and traced his jaw line carefully, "d-did I ever tell you how gorgeous your face looks…?" her voice sounded a bit cracked, most likely because of the slight shock in her, making speech almost impossible for her.
Kakashi chuckled at her blatant question but gave a straight answer, right after pulling her a bit closer to him, "only a few times…" he whispered, running his thumb over Sakura's eyes; she was crying? Only just, Kakashi would have guessed. But the hell with wondering about what Sakura was so…upset or happy about, Kakashi had a young girl, no, a young woman in his arms basically wanting him.
Sakura felt her heart pound hard in her chest and took whatever chances she had left. Literally rising to the opportunity, Sakura closed her eyes as she neared the Copy Nin's face until their lips finally met.
When Sakura had actually touched his lips with the tips of her fingers, they were soft, but once her lips were pressed against his, they felt even softer. Who knew Kakashi could kiss so well, 'no one,' she thought, seen the fact that practically no one had ever seen his face.
'My first kiss too…'
The Copy Nin's tongue delved into Sakura's mouth, starting a little wrestle between his tongue and hers. Sakura opened her mouth more to allow Kakashi better access to this slightly wrong but passionate kiss. Sakura felt his hand that was at first rested on her waist, wrap around the small of her back and pulling her as close as he could without breaking the kiss.
Sakura moaned under her near breathless kiss as soon as she was completely flushed up against him. She wrapped her arms around the Jounin's neck and pulled herself a little higher so that she was at eye level with the man's face before her. With one hand keeping her a hold of Kakashi, Sakura thread her other free hand through his soft silver hair, playing with the ends at the back of his neck.
Kakashi moaned as he cocked his head slightly to get better access into the medic's mouth, all his worries and agony being washed away in the process.
This was so wrong, on so many levels, but yet it felt so right. Sakura just felt so right being in Kakashi's arms, and she didn't even care anymore who he was to her…she was his former student, her friend, and someone she probably treated as a brother almost.
'Screw the truth! You're in the middle of a damn kiss girl, just keep going and pretend no one's around to know,' even though Inner Sakura was annoying and hated a lot by her Outer self, she was right.
Of course being in a public event meant having a bit of manners. The two reluctantly broke the kiss for both air and respect for being seen making out in public. Only a sweet smile and a faint blush was seen on the pink haired medic's face.
Kakashi stared at the medic in his arms, who only leaned in again for another kiss, this time much shorter than the first. Kakashi smiled after she pulled away again and embraced her in a warming hug. The medic sighed as she was almost cradled in the Copy Nin's arms and swayed to the calming music as it was slowly coming to an end.
After the music had stopped, Sakura hadn't noticed how her legs had almost gone stiff from standing for so long like that and was escorted back to the park bench where Kuro and Kitsune had been patiently waiting for them, and who also couldn't help but watch their Jounin masters make out before them and perhaps giving them a few naughty ideas themselves.
Sakura yawned a little and gently rubbed her eyes and slouched on the bench. Kakashi chuckled as he sat down next to her and wrapped a hand around her waist, "tired are we?" he teased, kissing the top of her head.
Sakura giggled as his breath tickled her ear and shook her head, "just a little," she sighed, leaning against the older Jounin.
Kakashi gently rubbed her shoulders and nudged her, "lets go back to the motel…" he suggested teasingly and pulled the medic to her feet, though not letting go of her.
"But…" he stated firmly, turning Sakura around so that she was facing him, "let's take the 'back door' there so that Kongou-sama won't know we came in," the slight tease in his voice gave Sakura enough clues as to what the perverted Copy Nin had in mind.
Surely Sakura was Kakashi's Nurse Lady, but that didn't mean he would take advantage of her, although he was thinking it.
Abruptly Kakashi pulled Sakura up against him and held up a tiger sign with his free hand and grinned at the medic until…'poof!' They reappeared in their motel room bed with Sakura pinned down by Kakashi.
With a wide smirk on his now unmasked face, Kakashi leaned in closer and began his work by practically devouring the medic with his lips. Sakura moaned at the touch and began unbuttoning his shirt without breaking the kiss of course.
Grinning under the connection, Kakashi leaned back, pulling Sakura upright so that he could untie her hair and let it disarray along her shoulders and dove in for yet another passionate kiss.
Now completely shirtless, Kakashi subtly undid Sakura's kimono that basically held the bust part of the dress in place. With almost a puzzle to get through, Kakashi was almost more focused on getting the kimono off Sakura without making it seem so awkward.
Sakura was free from that kimono, wearing nothing but her bra and undies. Kakashi pressed her back down on her back and stared her right in the eyes, as if there was something missing.
"Sakura-chan," he finally spoke up.
"Yeah?" Sakura stared up at him so innocently.
"Are you sure you want to go through with this?" he asked, noticing how turned on she was right now that was slowly dimming away because of the question. Before the medic could answer, Kakashi continued, "because once it happens you can't turn back right?"
Sakura calmed her breathing and said, "I know…" she looked a little concerned before coming to realise how obvious it was that she wanted him right now.
"Well…?" Kakashi opted to the first part of the question.
Sakura matched her gaze with Kakashi's and gave a firm, "yes," and the moves went on again, with Kakashi smiling softly at her and giving her soft kisses on her collarbone, slowly trailing up her neck and planting his soft lips on hers, while his hands freely felt their way down and undid her bra.
The medic felt her skin crawl with goose bumps when Kakashi cupped his hand around her breast and kissing her so passionately, but like she really cared. Sakura should've known from the beginning how much she wanted him, but she could never truly admit it, therefore she was constantly fighting with herself between truth and lies. She had always personally admitted Kakashi was good-looking and always nice to her, but she never knew how much she had actually loved him. Hang on. Did Sakura really think that? Did she really love him? Oh crap, Sakura couldn't ponder this question right now; she's right in the middle of something that she would no doubt think back on in the morning.
Sakura was taken aback with instant widened eyes when she found Kakashi glaring hungrily at her in all his naked glory. Not only that, but so was Sakura. Though she wasn't shocked at how quick the silver haired Jounin did that, she was starting to feel quite nervous about the whole situation.
All her worries and anxiety was washed away when she felt Kakashi's soft lips on hers and his tongue slipping inside her mouth and giving her that longing pleasure and moaning gratifyingly as she took a hold of the man's strong arms, feeling the way they tensed up when he moved them.
Kakashi was starting to get the wrong idea, but he knew Sakura was almost just as desperate as he was, and he couldn't back out now; not in the state he was in: naked and sweaty already. Sakura was sure she was drooling when she saw him the way he was.
Another passionate kiss, and Sakura was stripped completely now and had her legs parted to accommodate the silver haired man. Once settled in a comfortable position, Kakashi gazed into Sakura's now hungry eyes in search of any weakness in her, and yet he found none. This was perfect. Yes, Kakashi had to admit it that he was almost enjoying every minute of this.
He was in.
He noticed Sakura's breath hitch at the contact and felt her tense beneath him. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "don't worry Sakura-chan, I'll protect you," Sakura felt his hot breath against her already moist skin and found her ability to breathe properly again. She felt Kakashi's hands trail up and down her hot body as he began his slow movements. The medic felt the pain momentarily and gripped hard at the blankets and arched her back into Kakashi, who took it as slow and gently as he could without hurting his precious cherry blossom.
The pain had finally ended.
Sakura was relaxed again now and Kakashi was back to kissing her, while still moving up and down. Kakashi felt the medic's hands feel him as if she was almost blind, and in the dark the Copy Nin had the faint idea that she was sort of blind. He kissed her softly as his hand made its way down the Kunoichi's thigh and back up, slowly picking up the pace.
The medic moaned loudly under the older Jounin, "Kakashi…" she called out to him under her breath, leaning forward until her lips met Kakashi's. The Copy Nin moaned in pleasure as his only form of reply, due to the pair of lips devouring his.
Sakura felt her sweaty body rub against Kakashi's and felt the pace quicken slightly. Moaning gratifyingly again, Sakura ran her hands along the Jounin's back, feeling his muscles under the padding of her fingers.
Kakashi felt he was reaching his climax, and watched as Sakura arched her back into him, urging him to keep going until there was nothing left in them. His breathing was becoming short. Was Kakashi getting tired already? Who knew Sakura wanted him this badly and tire him out so much after about twenty minutes. Sakura's heart was pumping and her skin was covered in both her sweat and Kakashi's; hell she didn't know how exhilarating this was, especially being this her first time.
Even as a child, Sakura had always saved her virginity for her one and only crush, Sasuke, but after he had faded out of the picture, Sakura didn't know what to do anymore. Even though Sakura seemed strong and happy all the time, she was still struggling inside to find someone who really cared about her.
'Oh for Kami's sake Sakura, Kakashi's yours, it's been proven already,' Inner Sakura wailed happily whilst punching the air triumphantly.
While in the midst of a long kiss, Sakura didn't want to be interrupted by her Inner self any more, especially now, 'look you, I'm in the middle of something; you can nag at me all you want, but not now; wait till morning!' she spat back inwardly, throwing back a few curses at her Inner self and enjoying her lasting moment.
After that Inner Sakura shut up from then on, having nothing else to say, but listen to her Outer's pleasing groans while having a pair of large hands exploring her body as much as they could.
Sakura felt Kakashi moan under his husky breath, tickling the medic's wet neck with his hot breath. The medic thread her hands through the man's silver mane at the back of his neck, playing with it while they kissed.
Another pleasurable moan and Sakura felt him thrust again, this time a little more hesitant than the last, giving her the vague idea he was right on the verge of reaching his max, arousing her just that little bit more. Kakashi stared hungrily at the medic beneath him and grinned, finally withdrawing himself from her and her tight grasp.
Kakashi leaned to the side of Sakura, who was still lying there with her legs parted and a little stunned. This would probably be the most amount of action she'd ever get for a very long time, not that Sakura minded; she was just extremely tired now. She rolled over in her current state so that she was now lying on top of Kakashi, who automatically snaked his hands around her waist to keep her there.
No words were exchanged, just smiles and soft kisses.
Even after the recent event between Kakashi and Sakura, the pink haired medic was still smiling as if nothing had ever happened, and in her case, if felt like nothing did, except that she kissed Kakashi a few times and had 'casually' spent the evening together like any normal couple would.
Sakura gently but tiredly rest her head on the Jounin's chest, hearing his heartbeat thump hastily and sighed. Kakashi gazed at her from where he lay and smiled sweetly at her before the matter truly came to him.
"You know…Tsunade-sama will have our heads for this if she found out…" then, Sakura jerked her head up with a quick glare of shock before shaking her head.
"I don't think Tsunade should need to know about what happened tonight, but I don't think she would be too worried if she knew we had something going between us," she reassured and kissed Kakashi softly on the lips before returning to her cosy position on the man's chest and sighing once again.
Kakashi just sighed deeply in relief whilst still trying to recover from the bonding between two long-time friends. He got rid of those thoughts, hoping they would forever leave him be.
Tugging at the sheets, Kakashi pulled it over Sakura and his own body, kissing the medic on the top of her head lightly before allowing his wary body to rest at peace and sleep until it was extremely late the next day.
Just as he would expect from himself.
After so many sleepless nights, Sakura was able to dream peacefully, yet it wasn't what she had expected of herself so quickly. Seeing Kakashi flirting with her in such a manner was a little surreal for Sakura, but she didn't care. She was no longer suffering tormenting and agonising nightmares of reliving Naruto's death while Sasuke would come along and make things worse.
Then her dream had changed to something she truly expected of herself. She found herself surrounded by all her loved ones, smiling at her, but that wasn't what had surprised her. Naruto and Sasuke were there too, all happy and grateful for something. Again, the medic didn't care, all she wanted was for her dreams to be good ones instead of ones that made her life feel like crap.
The first thing that brought her to day thirteen of the mission was…nothing. Strangely enough, nothing was there to wake her up; for once Sakura was given the permission to sleep as long as she wanted.
A sleepy grunt escaped her mouth and opened her eyes, groggily trying to check her surroundings when she had remembered then what had happened. She blushed deeply at the thought of the evening and how well it had actually gone…she had quite enjoyed it last night, even though it may have seemed wrong on so many levels.
She lifted her head, tasting her now dry mouth as she lazily glanced ahead to find Kakashi sleeping like a little angel, 'aww, how sweet,' Sakura said inwardly, a smile forming on her lips as she stared at the snoozing Copy Nin.
Okay, Sakura always knew basically from the beginning that Kakashi was hiding a gorgeous face, but she hadn't really noticed how gorgeous. The morning sun was already playing on his face; his eye twitching a little in the light, as if that would shoo it away. His scar ran down his face like a tear, stopping at the edge of his cheekbone. Sakura blinked a few times, her smile dropping to a light smirk.
'Man, Kakashi was an animal last night,' she blushed, her mischievous grin returning.
Steadily, the bubble-gum haired medic managed to lift herself off the Copy Nin without waking him and shuffled her way to the bathroom and closed it with a sigh.
Stuff locking the door; after what happened last night, Sakura wouldn't care if Kakashi came waltzing in the bathroom while she was taking a shower. She allowed the hot water to run awhile, while she contemplated over the mission's progress.
She slipped inside the shower and began rinsing off her body, scrubbing in a body wash that reeked of roses and vanilla. Slowly she poured the lotion on her arms and massaged the liquids into her skin, when she suddenly felt a pair of hands snake their way around her waist from behind and startling her.
"Yaah!" she yipped, turning around to find none other than Kakashi grinning sheepishly at her.
Sakura felt a little embarrassed at the sudden surprise but brushed it off as soon as she was pulled close to the Copy Nin, "sorry if I startled you," his calm voice announced, kissing her neck passionately.
The medic sighed and linked her arms lazily around the man's neck and rest her head on his shoulder, "morning Kakashi," she started cheerfully like any other day.
Kakashi chuckled again, "morning my little cherry blossom," he whispered, tracing his hands down from the medic's neck to her waist, making little circular motions with his finger.
Still under the shower, Sakura reached back and grabbed her shampoo that she washed her hair with. As casually as she could and while Kakashi was caressing her softly, Sakura smeared a handful of her vanilla and cherry blossom scented lotion in the man's silver hair and massaging his scalp. Kakashi pouted innocently, "what are you doing?" he asked, not moving his head but looking out of the corner of his eye at the pink locks that strayed on the medic's shoulders.
"Washing your hair, what else?" Sakura replied simply, rubbing her fingers deeper along his scalp.
Kakashi had no objections to Sakura giving him a nice massage, but it wasn't totally necessary to wash his hair in the process, but he just shrugged it off and sighed, taking in the strong aroma of vanilla that was aerating off the medic's body like a scented candle.
The feel of her skin was almost…silky to the touch, she was so soft under his embrace, yet she was so strong and determined underneath all that beauty, such as last night; she was something he didn't quite expect of her in an event like that.
"So what's the plan for today?" Sakura asked cheerfully, overcoming the noise of the rushing water from the shower.
"Hmm," came a reply from the silver haired Copy Nin.
Sakura waited, knowing Kakashi wasn't just humming because he liked the feel of her against him, but most likely a hum of thought, "we go home," he said plainly, smiling softly at the medic's reaction.
Sakura was tense now, and by the sound of it, she didn't really want to go home just yet, but she had to be back eventually to help Tsunade and the others at the hospital with her duty as apprentice and medic.
The medic forced herself to calm down, knowing she wouldn't want to spend the rest of her life here, even though it was a nice place, Sakura still missed the feeling of home and her own apartment, not to mention a proper bed such as her own. Oh the soft feeling of her own bed again, stuffed with her own familiar scent; she longed for it since she left on the mission.
Sakura smiled under the man's embrace and pulled away from him to look him in the eye. Staring into his mismatched eyes, lazy as they always are, Sakura felt the need to say something, or more like tell him something, but she didn't know how to tell him.
The medic smiled sweetly at him and kissed him softly on the cheek before hugging him again, "I love you…" she whispered softly in his ear before holding her breath towards his reaction, which was yet to come.
Silence ensued between them, not counting the rushing of water in the shower, but it wasn't long before Kakashi pulled the medic from him and pulled her close again for a passionate kiss. Sakura was a little startled at first, but shrugged it off and thread her hands through the man's silver hair.
Kakashi broke the kiss and stared Sakura in the eyes before smiling sweetly at her, "I love you too, Sakura-chan," with that, he embraced the medic in his arms, sighing softly as he rest his chin on the Kunoichi's head, his smile constant.
Sakura closed her eyes, wishing this moment would last forever, but she knew it wouldn't last much longer than it was needed, "we'd better get ready for this afternoon; we are leaving today after all," Kakashi reminded, kissing the top of the medic's head and letting her go. Without further conversation, Kakashi exited the shower to dry off, leaving Sakura to contemplate over things while she washed herself.
Throughout the entire mission, Sakura had doubted the outcomes, and continued doing so until something really big started to happen. It was the fact that she was falling for her former sensei, even though it was completely wrong of her to do that; she had fallen for someone who came rather unexpected in her love life. Sakura knew what could happen if people knew of their current relationship, and she thought of what Tsunade would think, but she was willing to face the consequences of her actions if that were the case.
To Sakura, Kakashi was caring and strong; he was someone Sakura really looked up to in the ninja world. The Copy Nin was always there to save him and Sakura was always there to heal his wounds for doing so. Sakura mentally cursed herself for ever letting herself get into those situations; she knew she was the weak one on the team, but she was always trying her very best to keep up, and things were only made worse for the medic when Kakashi came to the rescue.
Again, Sakura cursed.
Sakura had wished she was a little stronger than that, so she could prove to Kakashi that she was able to take care of herself, but that wasn't always her fault. Kakashi was always there to willingly help his team members when they needed it, and in many cases, Sakura needed his help.
And right now Sakura needed him.
Somehow Kakashi changed how Sakura thought of life ever since Naruto died and since then Sakura wished the handsome Jounin could fix it for her, yet he was scarred as well; thinking back on it in a way he hated to much. They tied together, making them almost perfect for each other, but Kakashi was a pervert, and Sakura was a well-known medic of the Leaf; that was one thing that mixed together like water and oil, but that was also one thing Sakura would have to deal with if she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.
Author's notes: Yep, that was it, the lemon has finally been lifted off my shoulders, and I can focus on the easier bits now. So how was that scene, seen that it's the first time I've written lemon scenes before :S. I tried to make Sakura the one who has the unexpected burst of lust and wants Kakashi as if he would vanish the next day. I tried to make this chapter as romantic as I could, which also included the bit in the shower :P. So, without further ado, I'd better finish up the next chapter and update as soon as I can; only a few more to go and I'm done XD. So, hope you enjoyed this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it (even though it was very awkward for me :S but I lived), now reviews please and I'll update a.s.a.p
