Naruto was standing in the middle of the field. His eyes were looking at the entrance, knowing that Sakura would come from that direction when she arrived. Sasuke was standing quietly at his side, his eyes casting down to stare at his snow covered feet. Sakura showed him how to do it. And seeing the reacting Kakashi got but only a small push of chakra, he wondered just how Naruto would react when he used it on him.
His eyes trailed from his feet to the fence in the distance. Knowing that it would take awhile before Sakura and Kakashi would show up, he wanted to try that little trick. Glancing at the young man next to him, he stepped closer. He opened his mouth slightly, taking in a shuddering breath. His heart began to pound loudly in his ears and a strange feeling came over him. His fingers twitched and willed himself to relax. Activating his sharingan he focused his view on the main chakra point in his neck. Sasuke glance one more time behind him, seeing no chakra signal emerging from the distance.
This was his chance. He channeled chakra into his finger tip, now glowing a dark blue. He reached out towards his neck. He was almost there when Naruto turned his head. It startled Sasuke, the main point he was aiming for now out of his reach. He quickly moved his hand up, going to another one located just behind his ear. He pushed chakra into the point, brushing his hand across the soft blond hair before retreating his hand. Seeing the body of his friend stiffen, his mouth opening and a soft moan escaping him made his heart swell.
His bright blue eyes turned to meet his dark ones, already having turned off his sharingan. A blush tainted his cheeks while he looked at him expectantly. "You had something just behind your ear. I removed it," Sasuke said with his usual emotionless tone.
Naruto nodded, not being able to look at him much longer and turned his gaze back at the fence. Sakura and Kakashi were already coming their way, almost having crossed the distance between them. Sakura noting the blush on Naruto's cheeks turned to look at her other former team mate. Meeting his eyes she only raised an eyebrow in question. He reply was a simple shrug, tough he wiggled with his fingers on his right hand. Sakura smiled, knowing what had caused Naruto's condition.
The man in question was talking to Kakashi, his eyes slightly unfocused but still lively as always. "So, Sakura was able to get you to tag along huh?"
"Hn." Sakura simply rolled her eyes.
Putting down the rules and the playable area, they put down a timer before the four of them went apart. Sakura began to make their ammunition while Kakashi was searching for a good spots to hide their ammo. When all of that was done, their snowballs loaded up in their places and two in each hand, the shrill sound of the timer went off.
"The game is on," Sakura muttered under her breath. She briefly glanced at the open field before them, seeing already Naruto walking their way. Sasuke however was nowhere to be seen.
"Such an easy tactics," Sakura sighed. She gazed at Kakashi. And when he gave her a slight nod, she smirked; running to the sides still in the protections the trees surrounding them could provide, she searched for a good spot to strike.
She stopped then behind a tree, now having a clear view of her target. Crouching down in the snow, her eyes followed Naruto. Anticipating his next step, she calculated quickly how far she needed to throw to hit him. When the answer came she rose, her arm moving backwards before she threw the snowball towards Naruto. The moment she released the snow, she moved; knowing that Sasuke might be coming after her when she revealed her position.
A yelp let her know she hit the target, and she let out a soft snicker. But her prediction was right. Because the moment she released her weapon, Sasuke was coming towards her, and fast. Running as fast as she could she moved back. And with a quick glance she noticed that Naruto followed Sasuke in pursuit. They were closing in fast, and if she didn't do anything they would catch her before she would reach Kakashi. Laughing breathlessly she willed herself to go faster. Placing her foot on a side lying tree-trunk she pushed herself in the air. She flipped. Throwing her last snowball as an attempt to slow them down before landing on her feet. She crouched down, ducking away from a snowball that almost hit her in the back of the head. Slipping her hand beneath the tree-trunk she grabbed two more snowballs.
She kept lying low, her heart thudding a tad faster than before as she waited for them to come closer. The sound of snow crushing beneath their boots was coming close faster and faster. Closing her eyes she counted to three, before snapping them open. She rolled away, throwing one of her snowballs square into Naruto's face as he was leaned in to hit her with his. She avoided one of Sasuke's snowballs but couldn't dodge the other and hit her in her hip. Seeking cover in the trees she heard Naruto gasp as a sudden wave of Snowballs flying in the air came crushing down on them. Sakura laughed, running away while ducking from the snowballs that were thrown at her. She joined Kakashi by his spot who had been throwing all those snowballs in a mere minute. Three of their four ammo places already used up. But even if that was so, it was still an hilarious sight to see.
She smiled when she reached the silver haired ninja who'd was just throwing the last one in his hand. He turned to look at her then, smiling as he did so. "Good job Sakura."
"My pleasure," Sakura grinned back. Even though the two teams had the same idea, the boys forgot to bring their own snowballs while Sakura and Kakashi had the advantage of their stockings. They kept throwing over for some time, Sakura hitting the two boys regularly. And before they knew it, their last snowballs were all used up. Both moving to the other sides, they scooped up some snow, making their own snowballs as they kept running.
Sasuke didn't admit defeat that easily. And had after the ambush their opponents had planned moved out of sight, creating a fair amount of snowballs himself. Making sure they were out of sight he went to grab Naruto, pushing in a small amount of chakra into his main point located in his wrist as he pulled him along. The blush returned, making him smirk as they kept running.
Telling his partner his idea he let him loose then, and continued running. A snowball rushed past him, hitting the tree just beside him instead. And as he glanced back, he noticed that Sakura was on his tail and coming closer quickly.
Dashing to the left, he scooped up some snow, now running straight towards Sakura. The salmon haired girl shrieked; knowing that the hunter now had became prey. Turning around she dashed away, ducking behind trees and alike to use as shield. But what she didn't know was that she ran straight into their trap. Before Sakura knew what was happening, snow balls where flying from everywhere. She dodged as many as she could, but still got hit quite a few times. Then out of nowhere Naruto launched himself at Sakura. They fall over, rolling through the snow while they laughed. Sakura was sitting on top of Naruto when they fell still, and soon they were throwing snow over each other. Sasuke came then, rescuing his partner and secret love,-to all but Sakura- from his attacker. Sakura screamed, laughing as she finally land into the snow. But before their eyes could meet Kakashi was there and it turned into a grand frolic fest.
In the end all four of them were lying in the snow, staring up at the sky as they were resting from their battle. They called it even, not even caring who might have won. The sun was already busy with setting by the time they got up to go home. But when Kakashi wanted to get up, he groaned when a muscle pulled together in a painful way. Sakura noticing his distress, came to his aid quickly. Pushing him back into the snow to look him over. Lying in the snow for over an hour had caused his muscles to grow stiff and he would be bothered by it if he didn't let it massage.
"You're coming with me Kakashi, and no buts," Sakura said sternly. Seeing that he wanted to protest she gave him a glare that even placed the evil one of Yamato into shame. He knew he couldn't win when Sakura made her mind up. So after releasing a heavy sigh and under the stern and dark glare from Sakura he gave in to her commands.
Sakura helped him up, waved the other two goodbye before the two of them left the scene. Sasuke watched them leave, a knowing smirk resting on his features. Turning to the blond, he watched him brush of the snowflakes that were stuck on his clothes. When he was done, his bright blue eyes met his.
"C'mon Dobe. Let's get out of here." Naruto simply nodded, which surprised him greatly. Normally he would answer with a smart remark or a 'teme'. But this time he did neither. He let it slid for now.
When they neared Naruto's apartment Sasuke began to feel a bit restless. He had seen the affect his chakra had on him. And both times it made him blush. But what did that mean? Did that mean he liked him like he liked him? Or was it only because it felt good? There was a big chance he would be sent out tomorrow. He already heard a word from Ibiki that there was a mission ready to go. The only thing he needed to do was to find the right team to fit the bill.
And when he saw the beige door that would lead to his apartment and out of his reach, he acted before he had even realized. His hand shot up to encircle his wrist; making Naruto look up in shock by the sudden touch. His mouth opened to either yell at him or ask him what the hell he was doing. But that never left his mouth nor his mind. The moment Sasuke touched him, he forced a large amount of chakra through him. His blue eyes unfocused, his hand clenched as a loud moan erupted from his throat. And it was music to his ears. He pushed the blond, hyperactive ninja against the wall. His hand crawling under his usual vest and shirt to touch the hidden skin there. Placing his mouth near his ear, he whispered loud enough for only him to hear.
"You don't know what you do to me Dobe." And then he focused chakra into his hands and lips. Touching three main chakra points at the same time; the one just behind the ear with his mouth, sucking and licking for all his worth, while his hand was touching his stomach and the other already traveled to his back. At first only a small push, before letting it grow in a steady rhythm, making him crazy with the pleasure racing through him. Naruto withered beneath him, groaning at the sensation washing over him. His hands came up to grab him by the shoulders, a hot blush on his cheeks as he watched the dark haired man before him.
"T-teme…," he panted out. He bit his lip when another wave washed over him. He was so close, it was torture. Sasuke continued his assault, loving every little moan that he caused. But then the grip on his shoulders tightened and pushed him away.
"Stop it!"
He let go, his eyes watching the heaving panting form as he tried to get back to his senses. He didn't feel the same. The bright blue eyes that were filled with confusing and anger made his heart sting. It seemed it wasn't meant to be for him. He growled lowly in his throat. Not being able to be scolded out or yelled at by the person that just confirmed him he didn't love him back, he teleported away. Leaving Naruto leaning against the wall to watch leaves twirling around before settling on the ground where he once stood.

Finally reaching Sakura's home she opened the door for her apartment, she pushed Kakashi further in before shutting the door behind him. She leaned into him then, feeling him stiff the moment she was pushed up behind him. Smirking inwardly she reached out her hand and switched the light on. Then she moved away, walking into the kitchen to make something warm to drink.
"Make yourself comfortable Kakashi. I'll massage you in a minute so you can rest peacefully tonight."
She heard him shuffle towards her couch before it fell still in the living room. Putting the coffee machine on she walked back to him, smiling to see that he already shrugged off his vest and sweater beneath.
"The black undershirt to Kakashi, you can leave it hand around your neck so you can still cover your face," Sakura said as she moved to the small room. Switching the light on, she walked passed a closet that was filled with different kinds of ointments. In the middle of the room was high bed where her patients could lie on. Placing a clean sheet upon the bed, she turned towards the closet. Her eyes swept over the different kinds of ointments, lavender, jasmine, geranium, lemon, rosemary, sandalwood, ylang ylang, tea tree and so on.
"Ne, Kakashi?" she said a bit louder than her normal voice.
"Yes?" His voice was soft and close by her ear. She jumped, his breath brushing against her ear when he talked. Knowing he's standing behind her she didn't turn around, but kept focusing on the ointments before her.
"Do you like the smell of lavender or the smell of rosemary more?"
"Lavender."
"Okay. Lay down on the table, you know the drill."
Grabbing the lavender scented ointment she turned around, her eyes roaming shamelessly over the naked skin from her former sensei. Kakashi having felt her gaze, turned his head towards her, smiling as he caught her staring.
"Enjoying the view?" He asked with a teasing tone in his voice.
Waking up from her trance, Sakura shook her head once and focused her eyes on the mismatched eyes of her friend. A grin came then, moving to stand beside him. "Definitely."
Seeing a blush peeking out of his mask, Sakura began to chuckle. Opening the bottle, she took some ointment before placing it down on the table next to her. Rubbing it over her hands, she stepped a tad closer, before touching the naked back of Kakashi. His muscles tensed, before relaxing under his touch. Spreading the ointment over his skin, she started massaging his shoulder and neck; rubbing all the kinks and knots of out his muscles. She hummed softly, smiling when she saw Kakashi relax under her hands.
"That feels good," he sighed, his eyes fluttering close.
Sakura responded with a hum. She continued on, and when she saw the time was right; she added chakra into her hands. Rubbing over his main point on his back with on hand, she used the other over the knot just below it. Knowing he wouldn't notice, she pulsed chakra into her hand, sending it waves into him. Seeing his muscles contract together under his pale skin, made her bite her lip. Darn, he was so sexy. She could hear him release a shuddering breath. She continued on, sending small waves of chakra into his chakra system while she did so. Sometimes she could hear him gasp softly. And it made her wonder if he was trying to keep quiet. Feeling a bit naughty, she wanted to hear him moan just once.
Moving to another hard knot she pushed her finger against it hard while sending a rather large chakra jolt through his main point. And there was the sound she wanted to hear. It made her heart beat faster and her veins on fire. Smiling she continued removing all the knots and when she removed the last one she retreated her hands. Grabbing the towel that hung on the side she whipped her hands off. Sakura placed the ointment back on the shelf and then finally turned back to her patient.
"You're done Kakashi. Do you want something to eat or drink before you go back home?"
He blinked, his onyx eye darker with a emotion she had rarely seen pointed towards her. There was such raw pleasure twirling around that depth. He moved up, showing his abs as he redid his shirt.
"Are you okay?" Sakura asked when he hadn't answer her. She watched him move past her and into the living room to grab his sweater and vest.
"I'm fine Sakura. Thanks for the massage." And with that said he teleported out of her home.
Sakura smirked. She finally made him notice she wasn't just a little girl he used to train. She had grow up into a woman. A woman who wouldn't stop until she had him just where she wanted. Turning off the light in the room, she hummed as she moved back to the kitchen to grab some coffee. As she passed her couch, she noticed an orange book lying on her couch. Kakashi must have dropped it with his haste to get out of her apartment.
Grabbing the small object with her hand she smiled. Knowing that Kakashi must come back some time to retrieve his beloved little book. Her humming changed into a whistle, placing the book on the coffee table. Walking into the kitchen for something to drink and eat, she began to laugh after the tune was done. It was a successful day indeed.
To be continued…
