Summary: (rewritten) OOCness, for Sakura's birthday, sequel to Jealous Thoughts, Denial Ideas: Poor Sakura! First she gets the flu and is bedridden. Now her overprotective boyfriend and teammates are going to 'heal' her. May God have mercy on her soul.
Part Two
Sakura sighed, her eyelids unwilling to pull up, as she listened to her teammate's conversation.
Now how could they hear them? Quite easily. It seems they failed to realize that sick people needed sleep and sleep calls for silence. Downstairs she could hear Naruto and Sasuke-kun getting into another fight and Kakashi giggling about one thing or another.
"THINGS NEED TO BE PERFECT! SO ALL OF YOU SHUT UP AND GET TO WORK!"
Sakura's brow twitched as a vain began to throb.
'He just has to obsess over something, doesn't he? First it was revenge and power. Now it's about reviving his clan and me. OCD much? Perhaps I should see about him getting some help.' Sakura grunted, snuggling deeper into her covers.
With how bad she felt she didn't need pure silence. She was passed out within a second.
Unknowing to little Sakura-Chan, her boyfriend, teammate, and sensei were going through absolute hell.
Kakashi scowled as he flipped through the cookbook, trying to find an easy recipe for homemade chicken soup. "Ah, here we go." His visible eye crinkled in happiness, seeing the title Chicken Soup and the paragraph explaining all the health benefits of taking it when sick.
"Perfect!" His lean finger ran down the list of ingredients and steps. "Hmm…two stalks of celery, three carrots, two potatoes, one whole chicken, chicken stock, salt, pepper, and garlic salt."
He tilted his head, "The hell is chicken stock?"
Cooking was new to the great jounin. He had lived a bachelor life of take out and frozen meals for years. The only home cooked items he ate were from Sakura and his fiancée.
He then shrugged. How hard could it be to make soup?
"Now…about this chicken stuff…"
Sasuke snarled as he placed Naruto in a headlock. "Damn it! I said go out and get my Sakura a stuffed rabbit! She needs something to make her feel better!"
"Why don't YOU go get it for MY Sakura-chan? I'll stay here and comfort her!" Naruto growled, trying to pull himself out of the headlock. The air was really starting to be cut off and he was starting to see spots.
"Want air? Go get the damn rabbit." Sasuke bargained, his voice steely.
The blonde boy whimpered feeling all the air from his lungs run out. "O-OK! ACK! OK!"
The Uchiha nodded with a victorious smirk. "Good. Now get going." He ordered.
Grumbling and sulking, Naruto hurried and did as told. The sooner he did this task the better. And hey, maybe Sakura will think that this is from him! It was coming out of his own pocket after all. Hah! Take that duck-butt!
Feeling rejuvenated, Naruto rushed towards the shop that would sell the adorable item.
Back at the Haruno household, Sasuke continued to smirk as he made his way back up to where his girlfriend was.
He gave off a tired and relieved sigh when he saw her. Whenever he got stressed all he needed to do was look at her and everything was right in the world.
Sasuke decided that he would stay with her while Kakashi cooked and he made the dobe clean (and get the bunny doll). Someone needed to be up here with her and make sure all her needs were tended to.
Taking a seat next to her, he made sure she was still breathing, and then made himself comfortable in her room.
A small smile appeared on his normal stoic and cold face and he gently stroked her cheeks.
Kakashi smiled gleefully as he wrapped the apron that only reached his thighs, clearly belonged to Sakura. It was a solid pink with white rabbits over it. He thought that if he was going to cook like a pro, he needed to dress like one.
Pulling out a bandana he stuffed his silver hair up into it and put on an oven-mitt.
Oh yes, Hatake Kakashi pulled off the sexy cook look to a T.
Placing the book down, the man looked around for the ingredients, still trying to figure out what the hell chicken stock was, and placed them all along the counter-top.
"Now let's see…skin the potatoes and cut them into small bite size pieces. Cut off ends of celery and cuts and also cut into bite-size pieces. Alright. Not hard at all." He threw the vegetables up into the air, his kunai spinning out from his pack, and sliced the vegetables up in mid-air.
Kakashi was quite proud of himself until he realized there were many pieces of food falling down at him and there was no place for him to put it.
"Shit!" He cried out, quickly catching all of them, as best as he could at least. There were a lot of pieces. Many fell on his hair, some luckily fell on the counter, but a nice amount rolled on the floor.
"Well…hmm…Oh! Oh right! A pot!" He piled all of the veggies on to the counter as he looked around. "Where do the Haruno's keep their pots? Teehee…pot."
"WHERE ARE THE BUNNIES!?" A Naruto, who was in the middle of a tantrum, exclaimed as he ran into the store, scaring the young woman behind the counter.
The poor girl just pointed to the right and he quickly rand in that direction. He reappeared approximately 5.2 seconds later holding a white stuffed rabbit with a pink ribbon and big black eyes "HERE!" Naruto yelped as he placed the money down and ran out not bothering with the change.
"Stupid, friggen, damn bastard. I will kill him for this. Thinking he can just order me around! I'm going to be the Hokage! No one orders the Hokage around! Right?" He looked down at the rabbit, waiting for the creature to agree with him.
"Yes, dat's right!" He said in a goofy voice, making the head of the bunny to nod.
"Hah! Knew it! You would never abandon me, Bunny-chan! You're Sakura-chan's bunny, which means you love me! Hah! Sasuke-bastard has no chance with us!" He grinned, looking very smug.
The blond never took notice of the many creeped out stares.
Sasuke was snapped out of his daydream of him and Sakura being together making many Uchiha children when he heard a loud crash from downstairs.
His Sakura moaned in her sleep, obviously the noise was disrupting her.
Growling, Sasuke was at her side, stroking her face and hair gently to try and soothe her back into a deeper sleep. He smiled in relief when she stopped moving and sighed, snuggling into her bed. She was back to sleep.
He spun and glared at the door.
Whoever made that noise was not going to see his next birthday.
Storming down stairs, he came into the kitchen, a chidori ready at his hand only to be very taken aback at the mess.
"Oh…good god." He gaped. "I'm so dead."
Pots and pans were all over the floor. All the cabinets were opened and the contents were either on the countertops or all over the place within the cabinets. There were about three pots on the stove, which was turned up to the highest level, and each were bubbling over, staining the counters.
There was a terrible odor of burnt socks. He worried the kitchen would never smell right again.
"Haruno-san is going to kill me." He muttered at the thought of his girlfriend's mother.
Sakura got everything from her mother: the forehead, the pink hair, the sea-foam green eyes, the pet peeve about hygiene and tidiness, and the short temper. Haruno Hikaru will destroy him once she sees the mess.
That's when his eyes glowed in anger. "KAKASHI!"
Sakura squeaked and shot up, regretting it as soon as she did. A wave of nausea and dizziness swept over her as her head began to pound. She fell back on her pillow whimpering.
She then groaned in misery as she felt pressure hit her lower abdomen. She had to go to the bathroom really badly. Another whimper escaped her mouth as she tried to pick herself up only to fall back down.
Her bottom lip began to tremble as tears began to form in her eyes. She felt sick, all she wanted to do was go to sleep, her friends are more than likely destroying her home, and now she had to go to the bathroom and couldn't.
The petal-haired girl did the only thing she could do in this situation. She began crying.
Wait no. Not good enough term.
She began wailing. Big tears poured down her face and sobs came form her mouth as she hiccupped for air only to continue bawling again.
"You idiot! It's just soup! Boil some water add the items in, let it cook, and stir every once in a while! How the hell can you make this big of a mess? Sakura's kitchen is ruined! And her mother is going to slaughter me and you! But most importantly me!" Sasuke snarled as he glared down at the twitching pervert.
It appears Kakashi completely underestimated how hard it was to cook. He was now going through a mental breakdown and Sasuke screaming, and trying to strangle him, gave him little comfort.
That's when the Uchiha stopped and his back went stiff as he twitched.
Kakashi knew that look. It was Sasuke's "Sakura-sense". The dark haired teen then disappeared in a flash.
Sasuke flew the door open to see Sakura whimpering as tears poured down her face. "Sakura? What's wrong?" He asked as he went to her side.
"I don't feel good. And I have to go to the bathroom. And I want to go to sleep. And I'm hungry." She sobbed out as her shoulders shook.
His face went red at the mention of the second part. "We-well. Ok. Here I'll help you in there and th-then you can. . . .um. . ."
Sakura nodded, to tired to be embarrassed. He picked her up, bridal style, and helped her into the restroom. He tried to set her on her feet but she just fell.
His blush went even heavier when he realized she wouldn't be able to take off her pajama pants and, well, go. 'I have to help her.'
Nearly all of his blood gushed out of his nose at that moment.
"I'M BACK! SASUKE-TEME, STAY AWAY FROM MY SAKUUUU" Naruto screamed as he ran in the front door only to trip on the rug and fall face first onto the ground. "—ra-chan….owwie."
Kakashi came in looking down at the young man who looked to be in a lot of pain. "I see you got the bunny."
A muffled "yeah" was his only reply. His sensei just shrugged forgetting about his mental break down as he reached down and picked up the rabbit before making his way up to Sakura's room. Maybe the bunny would help her feel better.
Poor Naruto and his plan on wooing Sakura. It appears the rug was more of a Kakashi/Sakura fan.
The silver-haired man came in, tilting a brow when the two appeared out of the restroom together. Sakura was unconscious in the younger man's arms. Sasuke's face was the reddest Kakashi has ever seen.
'Ooh what a naught little boy he's turned out to be!' He thought, his mask lifting as he grinned. "Sasuke! I'm ashamed! Taking advantage of a sickly girl! And in her bathroom no less! You could of at least done it in her bed! For shame!" He teased, knowing that he would die later but it didn't matter to him. He wanted to make the Uchiha prodigy flush.
"Shut the hell up." Sasuke hissed out as he gave off a twitch, his blush going up ten-folds. "I didn't do anything to her. Perverted-bastard. Go screw Shizune if you want some fun."
The silver-haired man laughed. "Ooh! I would love to do that!"
The young teen twitched, this time in sickness at the thought. "Pervert."
Naruto then made his way into he room holding his head. "What did I miss?"
Kakashi was about to say something when Sasuke pounced on him. "SHUT THE HELL UP!"
Naruto blinked as he saw his best friend and rival attack his teacher before shrugging and walking over to Sakura, picking up the bunny on the floor. "Here ya go Sakura-Chan! I thought this would make you feel loads better cause I am a much better boyfriend for someone like you. You know I am so much better and loving and thoughtful and-"
"DAMN IT! DON'T TALK TO MY SAKURA!" The possessive Sasuke snarled out as he also tackled Naruto and pulled him into the brawl.
Poor unconscious Sakura.
And thus the medical care of Haruno Sakura continues!
