A/N: Thanks for all the reviews! Oh, and on how I said that I needed a life, I've stolen George Bush's... Waitaminute... :Stabs self in the heart:George Bush goes to Hell: All better! n.n

Second chapter today... Have I proved to you how little outdoor life I have? Well, it's better than doing sports and getting all sweaty and shit... That'd suck!


The phone rang.

Since when was there a phone in the room?

Sakura answered the phantom phone.

"It's me," she heard Tsunade's voice.

"Shishou?" she asked, "What's up? Since when did you know the phone number here?"

"I asked for it," she answered indifferently. "Listen to me, the Akatsuki has been spotted closer to Iwa. I have a feeling they're going to attack soon. First thing in the morning, I want you and Sasuke to go out and do couplish things. I want you to check everything out. Whether it be a candy shop or a strip bar, make sure everybody is safe. Understand?"

"Yes, I understand."

"Oh, and one more thing, no fighting over the bed," the hokage stated. "Share it, I don't need you two getting found out because of your gripe between eachother."

"Fine..." replied Sakura, sounding less proffessional.

She hung up the phone and told Sasuke what Tsunade had told her.

"Great..." commented Sasuke sarcastically.

"I know, we have to wake up early," whined the kunoichi, falling onto the bed.

"No, I have to share the bed with you," corrected the Uchiha.

"Go to Hell..."

"Only if you're not there..."

"Oh, I get it, you're trying to get back at me for calling you a girl," she stated with a smirk.

"No, I just don't like you very much..."

"..."

He smirked.

Sakura balled a fist and aimed to punch him in the stomach, he caught her fist and she kneed him in the place that the sun don't shine.

He fell to the floor, letting a loud breath escape his lips.

"Nice... One..."

"Thank you."

And she lay down in the bed and let him deal with getting himself up and ready for tomorrow.


Sakura awoke to see Sasuke's face right in front of her's.

She silently gasped and stood, blushing.

Too close for comfort...

She took out some fresh clothes and went into the bathroom to have a shower. She used the special shampoo for dyed hair and sighed as the sound of the pattering rain soothed her aching neck.

Her sleep the night before was not a deep one. The thought of Sasuke sleeping in the same bed as her was not exactly a comforting thought.

After, she exitted the bathroom in a decent dress and a towel wrapped around her head.

She looked to the slumbering Uchiha on the bed and subconsciously smiled.

Then, she caught herself and scowled at him. Damn Uchiha's and their hypnotic powers over women...

He was cute, she'd give him that...

Then, she remembered that she had to put her eye contacts in.

She went back into the bathroom and wiped some of the fog from the mirror. As she tried to put the contacts in, she couldn't get them in and get them to stay in.

She sighed.

Then, a shirtless Sasuke entered the room, his eyes half-lidded and said, "Morning."

Seeing his muscular chest caused the slightest of blushes to appear on her face.

"I-I can't get my contacts in," she mumbled, showing him the contact sitting on the tip of her finger.

He approached her even more, she, instinctively, backing up.

He took her wrist, took the contact and helped her put them in her eyes.

"Th-Thank you," she stuttered.

"Yeah, now if you don't mind, I kind of need to..."

"Oh... Oh!"

She raced out of the bathrrom and ignored his amused chuckling.

She sat at the side of the bed and tried to calm her shaky nerves.

Maybe she was ill... Yeah, that was it. She wasn't starting to get a crush yet again for her arch rival for all eternity... She probably had the Nerve Flu. Yeah, the Nerve Flu! There was Stomach Flu, so there could be Nerve Flu!

Then, the door opened and out walked the now brown-eyed Uchiha. At the site of him, her stomach clenched.

There had to be an explanation for this! She must've had... Karma! yeah, karma from being so mean to him the night before! Damn karma and making her stomach act odd...

"Well...?" he asked, obviously waiting for her to finish up so they could go.

"Uh-Er-... I-I..."

She couldn't mold her voice into any coherent words...

What would explain that?

"Cat got your tongue?"

There, there's the explanation!

She towel-dryed her hair, ran a brush through it and left with Sasuke.

They walked into the front foyer where the lady at the front desk smiled and greeted them.

"How are you enjoying your stay?" she asked.

Sasuke wrapped an arm around Sakura's waist and answered, "Couldn't be better."

Sakura squeaked when he pulled her into his side.

The lady chuckled.

"It takes a while to get used to the whole married thing, doesn't it? My husband and I were the same way, he'd try to hold me and I'd be shy or embarrassed."

He nodded and walked with his "wife" outside the hotel.

"You know, the whole shy act was, actually, a good idea..." he mumbled.

Yeah, act...
