Run.
Sakura tore through the village.
What the hell was Kakashi thinking?
That… that…
Stupid…
Perverted…
Suicidal…
*****FLASHBACK*****
The warmth of the setting sun washed over Sakura's body.
Nestled in her cozy bed, Sakura stretched her lazy form, and a throaty moan slipped past her lips.
In that moment vivid images of bodies entangled in the most intimate of ways flashed before her sleepy eyes.
She had dreamed about...
Kakashi.
He had…
And then SHE had…
It had felt so…
Real.
She could still feel his hands on her skin.
And the way he felt between her…
"Oh Gods…"
Sakura's cheeks flushed a violent shade of ruby, and she shook her head trying to clear the all too real dream from her mind.
How would she ever be able to look at her Sensei again?
Sakura's eyes flashed wide and she sat up with a start.
Where was he?
She glanced around the room, and once again Sakura's face turned a violent shade of ruby.
Unfortunately for Kakashi, embarrassment was the last thing on her mind.
No.
Sakura was thinking about other things.
Painful things…
Like one hundred ways to break a certain evasive ninja's legs…
"That BASTARD!"
Just as she was about to go and hunt him down, there was a tap at her window.
Sakura recognized the senbon chewing ANBU immediately.
Genma…
Worriedly, she ran over and opened the window.
"Yes?"
"The Hokage wants to see you."
A cold chill ran down Sakura's spine.
"Is everyone alright?"
"Calm down, Pinky. Tsunade-sama just wants to speak to you."
The relief that flooded through Sakura was quickly replaced with anger as she desperately tried to resist the urge to throttle the senbon user.
Stupid Genma, and his perverted nickname.
"Shut it, pervert.", she growled.
His only response was a dazzling boyish grin, which would have made any other woman melt into a puddle of goo.
But Sakura knew better.
Genma was all tentacles…
Tongue included.
Muttering a few choice expletives under her breath, Sakura started to climb out the window when Genma suddenly stopped her.
"Uh, you may want to change your clothes first."
And just like that, he was gone.
Change her clothes?
Sure, she was in her pajamas, but they were decent enough. Hell, Genma usually loved it when he caught her in any form of undress.
Sakura shook her head and turned to grab her uniform from the closet.
That was when she saw it.
Dried splotches of white…
All over her shorts...
And between her thighs.
Sakura stood frozen in place, as she stared into her mirror.
The dream.
It had been…
REAL.
He had really…
And SHE had really…
Before Sakura could even begin to process what had happened, her blood ran cold.
Kakashi…
This had to be the reason he had left, even after she had threatened him.
She had to find him before he did something foolish.
First, she had to find out what Tsunade wanted.
It was rare for Sakura to be summoned in the middle of the night for non-medical emergencies, but when it did happen, it was usually serious.
Sakura rolled her eyes.
Either that, or Tsunade had run out of sake again.
Sakura quickly threw on a uniform, slipped out her window, and took to the rooftops heading straight toward the Hokage tower.
Once Sakura arrived, she walked to Tsunade's chambers.
Genma stood outside the door, as usual.
Fighting a fierce blush, Sakura looked everywhere, but at his face.
She knocked quickly on the office door.
"ENTER!"
"Shishou, you wanted to see me?"
"Ah, Sakura, yes, sit down."
The first thing Sakura noticed was the permanent frown etched on her Shishou's face.
That was bad.
The second thing she noticed was the untouched bottle of sake sitting on her desk.
That was VERY bad.
The only time Tsunade didn't drink was when something was seriously wrong.
"I need to talk to you about Kakashi."
Sakura's heart stopped.
And then she did what she did best…
She panicked.
"Shishou, I can explain! It was my fault. Kakashi-sensei didn't know what he was doing! He was upset, and I didn't make things better, threatening to break his legs and all. I'm the one who started it, but I did think I was dreaming!"
"What are you talking about, you silly girl? How in the world could YOU have anything to do with Kakashi rejoining ANBU?
"Well, I… wait, what did you just say?"
"Which part? The part where I said you were silly, or the part about Kakashi wanting back into ANBU?"
"WHAT?"
Exasperated, and in desperate need of her sake, Tsunade stood and went to look out the window at the village below.
"That is why I summoned you. That little brat came barging in here a few moments ago, demanding to be reinstated into ANBU. I wanted to ask you if you've noticed anything off while training with him this past month. He seemed to be a mess. Well? Have you noticed anything?"
Tsunade turned around, only to find Sakura gone.
"Uhhhhh, brats these days! They have no respect for their elders."
Tsunade knew she'd get to the bottom of this mess…
Eventually.
But for the moment her sake and the little sanity she had left seemed more important...
*****FLASHBACK END*****
BAM! BAM! BAM!
"Open the damn door, you bastard! I know you're in there!"
The door opened, and out stepped a very sleepy looking Kakashi.
With a livid snarl, Sakura stomped past him and into the house.
"Sakura?"
"Fuck me, Kakashi."
