Sasuke and Sakura finally arrive at the house. They both took off their shoes and headed toward the kitchen area.

"Would you like some tea?" asked Sakura

"hn," responded Sasuke. Sakura started preparing the green tea, and Sasuke sat at the dining table.

"Did you want to discuss it?" said Sasuke with hesitation. Sakura was confused about the question, was he talking about the mission or the events before?

"Discussing what? The mission or what you said to Kakashi?" asked Sakura. Honestly, Sasuke didn't want to discuss anything, but he also knew it would be essential for the mission to clear the air and keep their unconventional relationship intact.

"Either or both," said Sasuke with difficulty. Sakura could tell that Sasuke didn't want to talk about either subject.

Sakura grabbed the tray of green tea and headed toward the table.

She took a deep breath, "We don't need to discuss it," answered Sakura while giving Sasuke a small fake slime. This annoyed Sasuke.

Sakura started to serve the tea.

"Why do you do that?" asked Sasuke. This caught Sakura off guard,

"Sakura, you take upon yourself all the pain in this relationship," Sasuke continued. "You would rather withhold your own needs and wants than cause me discomfort,"

Sakura's eyes started to swell up, and she began to walk away. At that moment, she could feel Sasuke's hand catching her wrist. This action surprised her and made her lose balance, pulling Sasuke off the chair and landing on the floor, with Sasuke on top of her.

Sasuke had his one hand on top of Sakura's head while still holding her wrist. Their faces were almost touching. Sakura blushed, then saddened react to her eyes, and she started to look away.

"You know that's not true," Began Sakura. "I have always stated my wants and needs to you,"

Sasuke took a moment to reflect, it's true she is always the one to state how she feels with him, and he has never really shown any signs of his feelings towards her. He has demonstrated his wants with her, his urges for revenge and his desire to change the world. But never what he wants from her.

He did show affection towards her before he left, hoping that was enough for her to know she meant a lot to him. But he has never shown any desire to be intimate with her.

"You're right. I do want to talk about something," said Sakura. "What is the nature of our relationship?"

"As of today, it seems we are a married couple," said Sasuke avoiding the question.

"I'm not talking about the mission," said Sakura. "I'm talking about what you said to Kakashi, 'Our relationship isn't of that nature.'"

"Sakura, you are aware of what Kakashi was implying?" said Sasuke. This made Sakura blush. Sasuke took a breath. "Is that the kind of relationship you want?" asked Sasuke.

Sasuke started to summon Susanoo's armour creating an artificial arm. He grabs Sakura's other hand with his fake hand, lifting it over her head, pinning both hands down. Then moves his normal hand towards Sakura's face. He was brushing the strains of her hair off her face. Then moves his hand, so it cradles her face. Moving his thumb over her lips, "Do you want me to have my way with you?" asked Sasuke. Sakura's heart was beating so fast. She didn't know what to do or say. Sasuke started to move his face closer to Sakura's face, with their lips almost touching.

*knock* *knock*

Sasuke sighed. He moved his head towards the door and deactivated the Susanoo freeing Sakura's hands.

"Naruto," said Sasuke with annoyance. Sasuke turns back to look at Sakura. He still had his hand around her face. Sakura's face was completely red, almost like a tomato, which made him smirk.

He grabs her cheeks and pushes them together, going squish, squish.

"Duck face," said Sasuke.

"You're being mean," said Sakura.

*Knock* *Knock*

Sasuke got up and helped Sakura up. Sakura started to head towards the door.

"Sakura," said Sasuke.

"Er?" said Sakura turning to face Sasuke. Sasuke had stretched his hand and poked her forehead.

"Maybe next time," said Sasuke with a cheeky smirk. She went utterly red again.

*Knock* *Knock*

Sasuke sighed, "We should probably answer that before he breaks the door."

Author notes

So I wanted to write something that reflected Sakura's facial expression when Sarada asked Sakura if Sasuke had ever kissed her. She made an unhappy face - so I wanted her to think about the duck face.
