Mm, sorry people, I faced a long period of writer's block… But anyway..

I decided that since the comments consisted of a 50-50 of lemons and keeping the pace, I'd make an interesting twist to the story so both sides will get what they want.. Though it might not be exactly what was expected… Heh…

Note: This is pretty much all in Sasuke's POV.

Enjoy!

SAKURA POV

I peered down at my hand, and glanced up and looked around the table. The women were all smiling, and occasionally peeking at Sasuke, who was sitting next to me, staring at the ceiling. I smiled at everyone, then leaned towards Sasuke.

"You're nervous, aren't you?" I whispered in his ear. He shivered slightly, but remained silent. I looked around the table, and everyone was, of course, staring at Sasuke. I grinned as I observed everyone, taking note of this one girl on the corner. I tapped Sasuke on the shoulder, and he slowly turned around. I pointed at the girl from underneath the table. "What do you think about her?" I asked, grinning as I saw the color drain from his face. Then I decided it was time. Glancing down at my cards one more times, I slammed them down on the table, and everyone was startled, turning their attention to me. "All in." I announced. Then, glancing over at Sasuke, I add, "Including this boy."

SASUKE POV

I froze. Turning my head to face Sakura's smirking face, I heard the excitement buzz throughout the table. I immediately tried to look down at Sakura's play, but she stopped me, covering up her cards. She shook her head. She looked up at me and smiled maliciously.

"You'll have to WAIT to see your fate, Sa-su-KE." She emphasized the last word, and I felt something that had gotten pretty common these days – fear. Everyone began smiling and looking around at their competitors for, well, me. I groaned and glared at Sakura, whom, quite frankly, was apparently in her "happy place": eyes closed, mouth smiling and slightly watering. I wonder what SHE'S thinking about. I frowned. My fate…? Then the game began. The first to put down her deck was a chubby lady in the corner with big red lips.

"Two pair, kings and aces." She announced, tilting her head high and smiling as if she knew she had won already. I rolled my eyes, then glanced around the table. Several people already look disappointed…that's good. I looked at Sakura. Her cheeks were flushed from the excitement, cherry-red lips curved into a small smile hidden behind her cards. Her hair was swept back just so she looked…perfect. Holy crap, what the hell am I doing??

"You are SO checking her out, you loser." My "inner-self" growled. …Hn. I pried my eyes off of her and kept my sights on the action around the table. It was the next woman's turn. She was stick thin to the point it was disgusting, and had long, pitch-dark hair. She was pale, and was smiling a sinister smile and she peered out at the rest of us through her curtain of hair.

"Full housee…" She slithered, and revealed her cards – a set of aces and kings. Then the woman next to her burst out,

"WELL, GUESS WHAT?? I BEAT ALL OF YOU!" She slammed her cards down on the table, revealing a straight flush of 5-9. I twitched at her, and looked around the table. Already half of the women there looked defeated, and pretty much the rest of the freaks looked stunned. There were only two left that actually seemed a bit determined – Sakura, and a petite girl in glasses, a cashmere sweater, and a knee-length skirt. I smiled. Looks like she's got this won.. I glanced over at Sakura. She caught my gaze and frowned for a brief moment, and turned back to the table. Everyone got quiet. After brief moments of silence, Sakura spoke.

"So, anyone willing to show up the girl with the flush?" It seemed that a force had moved upon the people, causing them to either bow or shake their heads. Then the girl in the corner arose.

"I-I am…" Everyone turned to stare at her. She flushed a bright red, then gulped. She turned to Sakura. "B-but only if y-you show your c-cards f-first…" I rolled my eyes. Sakura smiled sincerely at her, then placed down her cards.

"Straight flush – 9-King of Hearts." She turned her head to face the girl. "Your turn." She told her. The small girl quivered. Then she slowly placed down her cards.

"R-royal flush…" Everyone's jaws dropped, including mine. But Sakura remained calm and turned to me. She grinned, and whispered in my ear. I widened my eyes. Oh. My. SHIT. I turned stiff and was glued to my chair, hyperventilating. Sakura got up from the table, and gestured the girl to come over, handing her my leash.

"He's all yours for the day." Sakura informed her, smiling. "Return him to this address tomorrow at 8 in the morning…" And then she handed her a slip of paper with her address on it. The girl widened her eyes, and quickly looked over me. Then she began hyperventilating. I shook my head in disbelief. I cannot believe this is actually happening… Sakura bent down to my ear.

"Have fun!" She whispered cheerfully, and she patted me on the head. Then she turned to the girl, and whispered something in HER ear, and it seemed that her hyperventilating became more rapid, the color of her face getting beet red. Afterwards, Sakura turns on her heels and skipped off. I stared after her in shock. I felt a sudden tug at my neck, and when I looked up at the girl, she seemed like a completely different person. She took off her glasses and lowered her skirt so part of her stomach could be seen, and she now looked at me with a new fire in her eyes. She smirked at me, and tugged on the leash again.

"Come on, boy." She tugged her sweater down. "Yukie has something in mind for you."

15 Minutes Later…Still Sasuke's POV

I was sweating. Not only because it was incredibly hot in the room, but because I was crazy nervous. My inner-self snickered.

"You're in a room aren't you? With a bed? I suppose you can guess what you're in for." …Hn. You better not be right about that. The girl, or "Yukie," as she has referred herself as, tied me up onto the bed and now, it sounded like she was taking a shower. Or was. I heard a door open, and saw steam filter up and float upon the ceiling. Yukie groaned.

"Yukie feels bored." She whined. Then she walked over to the bed, and all of a sudden, her face appeared, inches away from mine. She grinned at me. "Yukie thinks it's time for some fun now." She hopped on top of the bed, and then I saw that she was wearing nothing but a towel. I gulped. My inner-self moaned.

"Who knew that chick had a BODY under those clothes. Dammit, Sasuke, you lucky bastard!" …Hn.. Yukie sat on top of me , on leg on each side of my body, and she looked down at me, confused.

"What? Are you not a guy or something?" Then she glanced at my face and giggled. She placed a hand on my face and used her fingers to trace along my lips. "You're all stiff! Just relax, I'm not going to do anything BAD to you…" I tried to ignore her, and turned my head to the side. She placed her hands on my tied up ones, and rested her head on my chest, and I could feel her towel loosen. She giggled again. "Your heart is beating so steady…maybe I should make things more exciting then?" Then within seconds, my shirt was off, one of my hands free. I quivered. Fuck, what the hell is she going to do to me…? My inner-self snorted.

"You are old enough to answer that question yourself." He snickered. I mentally punched him, and I could hear him scream, then silence. Yukie grinned at me, and hitched up her towel and sat on my stomach instead. I felt my face heat up. What's her deal? What's she trying to do…? Yukie bent down lower, and her towel lowered. I kept my eyes on the ceiling. She moaned quietly, and I felt the towel fall off. Fuck.. Yukie threw the towel off the bed, and using her legs, pulling down my pants. She scooted up so I could see her face, and she used her hands to make me face her. I gave her my simple Uchiha blank stare. I can't give in to this. She pouted.

"Try to get into this, sweetie. You know you're enjoying this." Then she sat up and scooted forward more, and I felt something wet. …Hn… I turned my head to the side, and Yukie bent down , but she had went up so far that her bare breasts were now in my face. I growled, and she bent down so her chest was literally an inch from my face. If only I could get out of these ropes. Then an idea popped into my head. I gulped. This better fucking work. I turned my head to face her…or her body, and I used one of my hands to pull her down, and I began sucking. My inner-self began screaming. SHUT UP. Yukie began moaning, and she ruffled my hair. "Atta boy…I knew it was in you." She whispered, and she untied my other hand. I then let go from her chest, and smirked. I knew it. Now, with both my hands free, I pulled her down so her chest was on mine, her face actually facing me. And I (THROUGH DESPERATION.) kissed her. Both her legs wrapped around my body, her arms around my neck, and now my hands were working their "magic." Meanwhile, while I kept her busy, I lowered myself down across the bed to the point I could reach my feet, and untied them. Then I turned her over so I was on top of her. She was flushed and panting. She stared up at me. I stared back.

"Why are you doing this to yourself?" And she said nothing, and pulled me back down, but I threw her arms off. I got off the bed and put my clothes back on, but I didn't hear her get up after me, just her breathing. And right before I turned to leave the room, I heard her mumble,

"'Cause your pink-haired girlfriend paid me to." I rolled my eyes. That was a stupid punishment. As soon as I got out the door, I turned to walk home. But then I saw her face in my head, and I curved my mouth into what felt like a genuine smile for the first time in years, so I turned around. This might not be that bad after all.

Sakura: I cannot believe you let him escape like that.

Nohappyendings: It's going to get better, just trust me.

Sasuke: ...You let her STRADDLE ME?

Naruto, as always, out of no where: How come teme gets to do all that stuff? When am I gonna get a hot story like that?

Nohappyendings: When I finish getting them two together, you can get your story, okay?

Sasuke and Sakura: ...

As always, R&R!!
