Chapter 12
"Tickle Fight"
It's been a few days since the incident where Sakura fainted. And she's been spending those days at Sasuke's to regain her strength.
Even though Sakura insisted he go, Sasuke demanded to stay at the house with her to watch her…and keep an eye on a certain asshole of a brother.
They both were currently in an awkward situation: they were both lying back-to-back, in one bed…How did that happen you ask? OoOoOo…you're such a pervert XD. Well…here's the story…
XXXXX Flashback XXXXX
It was now dinner time, so Sasuke and Sakura headed on down to the kitchen. Mikoto was already there setting up the table.
Mikoto looked up. When she saw them she gave a warm smile "Good evening Sakura-chan, Sasuke-kun."
Sasuke gave a nod of acknowledgement, and Sakura Smiled brightly and greeted her. "Good evening Mikoto-chan!...Mmmmm…It smells delicious!" Sakura said while sniffing in the air.
"Why thank you Sakura-chan! That's so sweet! So, have you healed fully?" Mikoto asked concerned.
"Yes! I'm feeling a whole lot better!" Sakura said, while flexing her arms muscles.
They heard a chuckle from the diner table. They turned to see Fugaku reading the newspaper. "I'm glad to see that your back and healthy Sakura-san." He said.
Sakura smiled. "Oh, please just call me Sakura Uchiha-sama!"
Fugaku choked on his coffee. Once he stopped coughing, he looked sternly at Sakura. "I could say the same to you to, Sakura."
Sakura blushed. "O-oh…alreaight…Fugaku-sama??"
Fugaku shook his head 'No'
Sakura pouted cutely. "Gomen-nasai Fugaku…san???"
Fugaku chuckled. "Good enough…That's probably the best it's going to get ne?"
Mikoto and Sakura laughed. Sasuke was next to Sakura examining the scene. He thought no one has ever gotten along this well with his parents. Sasuke almost smiled from the cute picture in front of him…almostBut Sasuke was snapped out of his daze when his mom gave a yell.
"ITACHI-KUUUUUUUUUN!!!!!!!...TIME FOR DINNERRRRR!!!!!!!!" She screamed bloody murder.
Fugaku, Sasuke and Sakura all winced and covered their ears from how loud her voice was.
Itachi came into the room with his hands also over his ears.
"Shit…you didn't have to yell so damn loud…I was only in the next room." Itachi said while sticking a finger into his ear.
Mikoto shrugged. "Well how am I supposed to know that? I mean, you could've been on the fifth floor for all I know…" (remember, they live in a mansion XD)
They all sweatdropped. Itachi sighed and took a seat at the table. Sasuke and Sakura followed suite.
Sasuke turned to Sakura. "Hey, Sakura?" He said.
"Hm?" She replied.
Sasuke smirked. "I think my mom kind of reminds me of you."
Sakura looked confused. Then she realized he was talking about how loud she could be. "Sasuke!" She pouted, while she playfully punched him in the arm.
Sasuke chuckle…Sakura could almost call it a laugh, but she didn't want to make risky assumption.
Sakura just widened her eyes until they were the size of dinner plates. Sasuke looked at her weirdly. "What are you looking at?" He asked.
Sakura shook her head. "You. Just. Laughed." Sakura said still shocked. "…Oh. My. God."
Sasuke rolled his eyes. "No, I did not laugh. So I have no idea what you're talking about. And just for the record, humans CAN laugh you know…I AM a human…ahem, but not like I laughed or anything."
"…NO. You're a human ICE-CUBE…not a human…there's a difference." Sakura said while shaking a finger at him.
Sasuke smirked at her childish attitude.
Sakura giggled. "Wait till I tell everyone about this!"
Sasuke glared at her. Sending the message 'tell them, and die.'
Sakura just giggled again and took a seat in between Itachi and Sasuke.
Sakura turned to Itachi smiling. "Hey, I don't think I've introduce myself yet. I'm Sakura Haruno!" Sakura said, holding out her hand.
Itachi took her hand into both of his. "…I know who you are…Sakura." Itachi said.
Sakura shivered from the way he said her name. She didn't get a good feeling from this guy. But she didn't want to seem rude, so she pretended like it was nothing.
"Well, it's nice to meet you, Itachi-kun." Sakura said.
Itachi smirked at the honorable, while Sasuke just scoffed. "Hn." Itachi said.
'Oh great…another hot sexy, socially inept, two-worded vocabulary bastard.' Sakura thought.
'And who would be the first one Sakura? Hm?' Inner Sakura asked.
'Well Sasuke of cour-HEY!'
Inner Sakura just smirked.
Once everyone was sat at the table, Mikoto started a conversation to avoid awkwardness, which was bound to come. "Sakura-chan, where do you want to stay no that your all healed?" She asked while sipping her tea.
"Eh?" Sakura said.
"No, Sakura-chan. Not "Eh?" but an actually answer would be nice." Mkoto joked.
Sakura blushed. "Well, what are you talking about? I'm all healed so there's no need for me to stay any longer."
"Ok, now it's my turn to say "Eh?"."
Sakura smiled. "Well of course I'm not going to stay here with you guys.
"Oh, don't be silly! Of course you will!"
"No, no, no. I've already been a great burden upon you all."
"Nonsense Sakura-san, it was no burden at all." Fugaku said.
"Don't lie, you all know I've been a pain."
"NO you haven't Sakura-chan! And you're staying here!"
"No its really ok-"
"YOU ARE STAYING HERE AND THAT'S THE END OF IT!!!!!" Mikoto yelled.
Sakura sweatdropped. "Uheh…ooook then…I guess I don't really have a choice…
"Exactly…I'm glad you understand…" Mikoto said.
Sakura sweatdropped again. 'So she's saying that she doesn't care if she forces me to stay? Just as long as I do?...does Sasuke think I really remind him of her?"
"DUH. You guys are practically mother and daughter!"
'…Well…you know you're basically insulting yourself too…?'
'…'
Sakura laughed. Sasuke looked over at her. "What's so funny?" He said.
"Nothing." Sakura replied.
"Ok whatever."
"So Sakura-chan. Where do you want to sleep?" Mikoto asked.
"Hm? Oh, anno…I don't really know my way around the house so…"
"Oh, oh, yes of course…um, why don't you stay in one of the guest rooms on the west side of the house? And Itachi-kun is right across the hall from it, so if you need anything, Itachi-kun will be there."
Itachi smirked, and seeing the smirk, Sasuke panicked.
"No." He said.
"Eh?" Sakura and Mikoto said. Itachi glared at his brother, but Sasuke ignored it.
"You're not staying there." Sasuke said flatly.
"Why not? And if I don't, where else will I sleep?"
"Because I said so, and in my room."
Sakura face paled. "NANI?!?!" Sakura yelled. "NO WAY!!!"
"Hn. Yes. You. Are."
"DOSHITE?!?!"
"Don't make me repeat myself Sakura." Sasuke said as he got up from the table and left into the hallway.
"CH-CHOTTO MATTE!!!" Sakura cried as she ran after him. But she stopped at the door before exiting the kitchen. "Arigatou Gazaimasu for the meal!" And then she left.
It seems that the whole time, Mikoto was holding her breath. "OH MY GOD DID YOU JUST SEE THAT??? THAT WAS DEFINITELY A SIGN OF LOVE!!" and she kept blabbering on about true love and protectiveness of the guy.
So Mikoto looked dreamy, Itachi was glaring holes into the wall, and Fugaku just scratched his head looking utterly confused. (Sigh…men…haha jkjk I have absolutely NOTHING against them! In fact, they're my favorite subject in school! XD)
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX WITH SASUKE AND SAKURA XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"What the hell was that about??" Sakura yelled.
"Hn. What are you talking about?" Sasuke lied.
"You know EXACTLY what I'm talking about Uchiha!"
Sasuke smirked in amusement.
"Don't you give that damn smirk to me! And what the hell are we supposed to do with ONE bed?! You MUST be sleeping on the floor because I certainly am not."
"Hn. I'm not sleeping on the floor either."
"Well then do you have a bed that pulls out of the wall or something?" Sakura asked, irritated with his attitude.
"No."
"Well then I guess that means I'm not sleeping here." Sakura said stubbornly as she turned to walk out of his bedroom door.
Sasuke suddenly grabbed her wrist. "Wait."
"What." Sakura asked.
"You're…going to sleep in the same bed as me…" Sasuke said while blushing a little bit, but he was glad that she didn't notice it.
Sakura blushed also, but she did it a lot more than Sasuke. "NANI?!?!" Sakura yelled "NO WAY!!!"
Sasuke sighed. "Didn't we just go over this in the kitchen?..."
"IT DOESN'T MATTER! THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL IM SLEEPING WITH YOU-" Sakura stopped as she realized what she was saying.
Sasuke raised an eyebrow in amusement.
"YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!!!" Sakura yelled. "I am NOT going to sleep in the same bed as you!"
Sasuke playfully pouted. "Mou…You're so mean…"
Sakura blushed at the cute face he made.
When Sasuke saw the blush he smirked. "Hn…And Sakura-chaaan, don't tell lies…I knooow you want to." Sasuke taunted.
Sakura blushed again. "N-no I don't!" Sakura cursed herself for stuttering.
Sasuke smirked once more. "Yes you do…just admit it…"
"Ugh, damn you Uchiha!" Sakura yelled while getting ready to playfully punch him.
"Whoa, whoa wait…I was just kidding…don't get so worked up…It's not I'm going to do anything to you in your sleep…" Sasuke said. Not realizing what he interpreted.
Sakura turned beet red, and then left with a "Hmph."
END OF FLASHBACK
So then here they were…sleeping, er, lying in the same bed…But Sasuke was really the only one awake.
He turned over and stared at Sakura. He admired her soft, creamy porcelain skin, long, silky hair, and those red, supple, juicy lips…and at that exact time, Sakura licked her lips while asleep, making Sasuke's attention stick their like glue.
'I wonder what they taste like…' Sasuke thought longingly, but quickly shook the thought away.
Sakura mumbled and turned her back towards him.
Sasuke cautiously inched closer and slowly snaked his arms around her slim waist. He then pulled her closer to him. He inhaled her scent of cherry blossoms and strawberries. Sakura felt the warmth behind her and snuggled into his chest. Sasuke sighed in contentment and quickly fell asleep.
XXXXX MORNING XXXXX
Sakura reluctantly woke up and yawned. She rubbed her eyes tiredly. She tried to sit up, but found that she was unable to. She looked down and a blush crawled upon her cheeks.
She saw that Sasuke was using her as his own personal teddy bear.
After a few seconds of looking over his calm face, she snapped back to reality. She then tried again to sit up and free herself from his grasp, but he pulled her back down to the bed, refusing to give up his "stuffed animal".
Sakura sighed and gave up…He was really strong, even if it was in his sleep. So she just laid back down. This small movement surprisingly made Sasuke slowly opened his eyes. Then they stared at each other for a long time. Sakura blushed when she realized how close they were, so she pulled back.
Sakura sighed in relief, no she would be able to get up. So she made her way to get out of bed, but to her surprise, she felt the same restriction as before. Sakura looked at him.
"Etto…Sasuke?...Could you uh, kind of let me go…?"
Sasuke just stared blankly at her.
"…Sasuke?..."
"Hn…No…"
"Nani?!? Why noooot?" Sakura whined.
"Because I said so." Sasuke replied, as if it was most obvious thing in the world.
"Sasukeeee…come oooon." Sakura whined again.
Sasuke just shook his head 'No.'
"…Sasuke…" Sakura said impatiently.
"Mmm…Yeah?..." Sasuke mumbled, trying to go back to sleep.
"Let go of me…NOW."
"Hm…Let me think about it…ok, done thinking. No."
Now Sakura was really irritated. A vein popped out from her forehead.
"…Uchiha…" Sakura said extremely dangerously.
Sasuke gulped…Now he was scared. (A/N Took him long enough eh?)
"I will give you five seconds…1…" She started.
Sasuke quickly let go of her, thinking that's what she wanted him to do. But to his shock, she kept counting.
"…2…"
"Yo, Sakura…Why are you still counting, I already let go of you.."
"Ah, but I never said why I was counting" Sakura said.
"Uh, because you wanted me to let go of you right?"
"Ah, Sasuke…you are so naïve…It was for you to get a head start."
Sasuke looked confuse for a second. Then it hit him, she meant that he was supposed to be running away.
"Oh shit!"
Sasuke jumped out of the bed and ran for the door.
"AHA!! YOURE TOO LATE UCHIHA!!!" Sakura yelled triumphantly as she roughly tackled him to the floor. She then straddled him down.
"Now Uchiha…be prepared for the ultimate punishment…mwahahahahahaaa…" Sakura said threateningly as she wriggled her fingers in the air, with an evil glint in her eye.
Sasuke gulped again. "N-no! Not tha-" But he was cut off by his own hysterical laughter.
Sakura was tickling him to death. She tickled him anywhere that was possibly ticklish.
While Sasuke was dying, Sakura smiled, she never saw him laugh before…let alone smile…But oh yeah…she remembered…She forced the laughter out of him XP.
Thinking about this, Sakura let her guard down, and Sasuke saw the opening. He flipped her over so that he was now pinning her to the floor. He lowered his mouth to her ear. "Mmmm…You'll pay for that…" Sasuke smirked.
Sakura's eyes widened when Sasuke made the attack. Sasuke tickled Sakura more than she tickled him! And trust me, which was already a lot.
Sakura was laughing so hard, she was crying. Sasuke smirked. "AHAHA! HEY HAHA! NO HAHA! FAIR! AHAHAHA!" Sakura laughed, while trying to slap him off. Sasuke caught her small wrists and pinned them above her head, pausing the tickling and laughter.
"Hey…No slaps allowed…girls shouldn't be so violent…" Sasuke said.
"Oh well SORRY. I didn't get the rule book." She said sarcastically.
Sasuke smirked. He then leaned lower to her face.
'What is he doing?!' Sakura thought.
Sasuke face was getting closer by the second. Sakura could feel his hot breath on her skin. She could feel her face burning.
Closer…
Closer…
Closer…
Basically there…
One centimeter to go…
But right before he claimed her lips, the door swung open, which caused both of them to look up. The opened door revealed Itachi staring down at them.
Itachi raised his eyebrow. "Did I interrupt something?" He asked, knowing very well that he did, to his contentment.
Sasuke growled at Itachi for ruining the moment he's been so longly waiting for. Itachi smirked, knowing that he stopped Sasuke from kissing Sakura.
"What. Do. You. Want." Sasuke growled harshly.
"Hn…Father wishes to speak to you in the living room."
"Hn…can't it wait?" Sasuke said impatiently, wanting to resume what he started.
"I'm afraid it can't…father said it was important."
"Tch, whatever." Sasuke said, reluctantly leaving the warmth of Sakura body. Sasuke immediately missed it. But Sasuke helped Sakura up anyways. Before Sasuke left, he looked Sakura sternly in the eyes, and whispered, "Keep away from Itachi…He's not good news…"
Sakura nodded, showing him he understood.
Sasuke walked toward the door and stopped to glare at his older brother. "Touch her, and die." Sasuke threatened. But Itachi paid no heed.
Sasuke walked past Itachi and out the door. But before he was totally out of sight, he turned around and nodded at Sakura, reminding her of his warning. Sakura nodded back.
'Be careful.' He mouthed, before disappearing around the corner.
Sakura thought about Sasuke's warning, and decided it was best to listen.
She walked towards the door, not wanting to be alone with Itachi.
"Excuse me Itachi." She said, still trying to be polite, but trying to get past him at the same time.
"Aw, what, no 'kun'?" Itachi teased.
"Very funny. Now may I please pass?" She asked, but he blocked her way.
Itachi smirked. The next thing she knew, was that she was roughly slammed against the wall. Sakura gasped. He the pinned her wrists above her head with one of his hands.
He placed his face in the crook of her neck and started to bite, lick, suck, or whatever he could do with his mouth, to her now marked skin.
Itachi loved the tasted of her. He but into her and she gasped in pain. The small wound started to bleed. Itachi hungrily licked away the blood, wanting more.
"What are you a vampire…?..." Sakura was able to ask. "Please…please stop."
Itachi just smirked and moved to her lips, claiming them with his. He licked her bottom lip, begging for entrance. As he expected, she didn't grant him his wish. So he pushed his body onto her, making her gasp. Taking the chance, Itachi slipped his tongue into her mouth.
He explored every corner, savoring the sweet flavor. He noticed that she needed air, so he slowly pulled out of the kiss, but immediately went back to her neck.
His hand explored every one of her curves, loving the perfect shape her body held.
"Sakura…" he breathed, while sucking, leaving marks, showing that he had claimed her as his. "Sakura…" He breathed again. "…You're mine" And he forced his tongue into her mouth and once again started to roughly kiss her.
XXXXXXXXXX WITH SASUKE XXXXXXXXXX
'Itachi better not lay a hand on Sakura while I'm meeting father for this oh-so-important topic.' Sasuke thought.
Sasuke was irritated because of the fact that not only did Itachi interrupt them, but because the living room was really far. It was a good 10 minute walk down to there.
Sasuke finally got there, and opened the door. "Sorry to keep you waiting fath-"
But he stopped at the sight he was greeted with…and it did not make him happy…
