Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

I'd like to thank free2dream for giving me the idea for what to do for the actual mission. This chapter is dedicated to you.

Chapter 10

Sakura opened the door to see Sasuke and Naruto standing there. The blonde stood there gaping at Sakura while the raven haired male appeared unaffected. On the inside was a whole other story.

'Holy shit, Sakura looks so hot!'

Sasuke had to resist the urge to throw her on the bed and have his way with her. The dress fit her like a second skin and her long pink hair was piled on top of her head with strands framing her face. The black strappy heals made her long legs appear even longer and the jewelry she wore complimented the dress very well. Her make up was done in a way that focused on her beautiful jade eyes and the lip gloss she wore brought attention to her lips without detracting from her eyes.

"We found the bar when Akure's going to be at. Let's go." Sasuke ordered.

Sakura grabbed her purse and Hinata followed, locking the door behind her.

Sakura walked into the bar with butterflies in her stomach. She spotted Akure and even though she knew her teammates would be close by that did nothing to calm her nerves.

'Ok girl, you'll be alright. Just pretend the man is Sasuke and say to him what you would never have the nerve to say to Sasuke out load.'

She saw Akure sitting on a stool and walked over to him. Men were lustfully staring at her but Sakura ignored them and continued walking towards Akure.

"Excuse me is this seat taken?" Sakura asked.

Akure who was already drunk looked at her and shook her head. Sakura smiled and sat down.

"What's a handsome man like you doing here all by yourself?"

Akure smirked, he couldn't believe his luck, a really beautiful girl was flirting with him!

"I'm just enjoying some drinks. What's a beautiful woman like you doing here by yourself?"

"I'm waiting for a friend. She and I decided to have a girl's night out."

"Akure was relieved that she was meeting a female friend. It would have been disappointing if someone as attractive as her wasn't single.

"Can I buy you a drink?"

"I'll just have some water."

"Water? You sure you don't want something else?"

"I'm sure." Sakura said smiling.

Akure signaled to the bartender and ordered a glass of water. When the he handed the glass to Akure he placed it in front of Sakura.

"Can I get a name or are you going to remain mystery girl?"

"I kind of like remaining mystery girl, what will you give me if I tell you my name?" Sakura flirted, leaning in and touching Akure's arm.

"I have something in mind." He replied caressing her arm.

Sakura wanted to shudder in disgust but she knew she couldn't.

'I'm going to need a shower after this.'

"My name is Shizuka, what's yours?" Sakura asked.

"I'm Akure."

"I like that name, I bet you're a very strong and influential man."

"I am baby, I am. In fact I have something very important going on now."

"Really, what is it?"

Akure smirked at her excitement; women were always drawn to men who had power.

'This is too easy; I'm definitely getting some tonight.'

"I'm working with a man to take over a village."

Now normally Akure wouldn't have been this stupid and would have been vaguer but he was too drunk to know any better. He ordered another drink and continued talking.

"His name is Orochimaru and he thinks he's so smart. I know he's going to betray me but I'm gong to betray him first."

"What does this Orochimaru guy want?"

By know Akure had lost interest in the topic and decided to move on to something else.

"Hey baby, why don't we go back to may room?" He asked.

Sakura almost sighed in frustration but didn't. It was clear Akure was too drunk to be questioned anymore.

'Time to knock him out.'

She slipped a sleeping pill out of her pocket and discreetly slipped it into Akure's drink and he was too drunk to notice. The fact that he was also intently staring at her cleavage helped him to not notice what Sakura was doing as well. She almost glared at him before she realized her mission.

The more Sasuke watched the interaction between Sakura and Akure, the angrier he got. Every flirtatious word and gesture from either of them made him want to punch Akure in the face.

'Calm down it's just a mission.'

This didn't help to calm the Uchiha down. His right hand with a silver thumb ring on it picked up his glass and took a sip. He wanted something stronger than water but still being underage he couldn't order alcohol.

The glass almost broke in Sasuke's hand as he watched Sakura start to stroke Akure's chest.

'I was wrong; she's too good at this!"

He could see the lust radiating off of Akure and he wanted to beat him up for having such lustful thoughts about his Sakura.

'Wait, my Sakura? She's not mine; in fact she's just a stupid girl. I shouldn't care if some guy is flirting with her.'

No matter how much he tried to convince himself he didn't care, he still did.

Naruto noticed Sasuke's jealousy and decided to tease him about it. It was about time he got some payback for all the grief Sasuke gave him.

"Hey Sasuke, something wrong?" Naruto 'innocently' asked.

"No."

"Really? It seems to me that you look jealous. Why would you be jealous?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Sasuke denied.

"You know what I'm talking about. You're jealous that Akure is hitting on Sakura."

"No I am not."

"Yes you are."

"No. I'm. Not."

"Yes. You. Are."

"I just don't like the fact that some slimy guy is hitting on our teammate. Do you?"

"No."

"Exactly."

Sasuke may have been able to fool Naruto but he wasn't fooling Hinata. She knew the real reason Sasuke was jealous was because he had feelings for Sakura.

Akure pulled Sakura to his chest and she had to fight the overwhelming urge to shove him away. He leaned down to kiss her and Sakura lightly pushed him away while coyly turning her head to the side. He looked at her in confusion and waited for an explanation.

"Not here."

Akure smiled and got up and gave her his hand. She placed her small hand in his and the two began leaving the bar. He stumbled and Sakura put her arm around his waist to steady him.

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I just lost my footing."

She nodded her head and the two continued walking.

'Hopefully it's the sleeping pill taking effect and not just the alcohol.'

Sakura casually looked behind her and saw her teammates stealthily following them. The two arrived outside and walked a few feet when Akure suddenly passed out and Sakura quickly caught him.

'Thank god, it's about time!'

Her teammates walked up behind her and Sasuke took Akure out of her arms.

"Good job Sakura." Naruto congratulated.

"You d-did great." Hinata complimented.

"Thanks."

Sasuke hoisted Akure onto his shoulder and waked away. The other three looked at him and before they could follow him, he spoke.

"Let's go," Sasuke said still walking. "We don't want him to wake up before we get him back to our rooms." He finished.

The three quickly caught up to him and the rest of the walk was continued in silence.

Sasuke took his shirt off getting ready to take a shower. Akure was tied to a chair with chakra strings and Naruto was watching over him. He couldn't get out of his mind the memory of Sakura flirting with Akure. Logically he knew it was just for the mission but emotionally he couldn't get over it. Deciding to talk to Sakura about it he quickly left the bathroom.

"Hey where are you going?"

Ignoring Naruto's question Sasuke left the room. He walked across the hall and knocked on the girls' door. Hinata opened the door and blushed when she saw Sasuke wasn't wearing a shirt.

"I need to talk to Sakura, go over and help Naruto watch Akure." Sasuke ordered.

The Hyuuga heiress nodded and quickly left the room. He entered the room and shut the door.

"Who was…?" Sakura said walking out of the kitchen and trailing off when she saw that it wasn't Hinata.

"What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to talk to you."

Sakura nodded her head and desperately tried to fight down the blush forming on her face at seeing a shirtless Sasuke. She knew she didn't succeed very well at it because she could feel her cheeks burning.

Sasuke stared at her and tried to get rid of his anger but it was difficult to when she hadn't even changed out of her dress yet.

"What do you think you were doing with Akure?"

"I was doing my job."

"You were supposed to get information out of him not throw yourself at him."

The Uchiha knew he was being irrational but he couldn't help it, the thought of Sakura with another man just made his blood boil.

"Excuse me?!" Sakura shouted bristling with anger.

"You heard me."

"I was seducing him like I was supposed to!"

"You didn't have to be all over him like some slut!"

The silence was deafening as Sakura stared at Sasuke, a dangerous aura emitting from her body. Without thinking she reached out and slapped him across the face. He stared at her as he lifted his hand up and cradled his cheek.

Sakura stared at him, fear clear in her eyes. She knew Sasuke would never physically hurt her but that didn't mean he wouldn't yell at her.

Sasuke continued to stare at Sakura and suddenly pushed her against the wall. She gasped in surprise and attempted to shove him away but he wouldn't budge.

"Move."

Sasuke didn't and instead he lifted up his right hand and lightly bit his thumb.

Lust coiled in Sakura's loins and she knew she was getting wet from the sexy sight.

The Uchiha stopped biting his thumb and instead grabbed Sakura's wrists. He gently put her arms beside her head and slowly leaned down to kiss her. When he was a centimeter away from her lips, he stopped, his breath fanning across her lips. Finally after an agonizing moment he closed the gap and kissed her.

Sakura moaned at the contact and opened her mouth when Sasuke nipped at her bottom lip. He swept his tongue in and groaned at the sweet taste. The kiss soon turned desperate as the passion between them became unbearable. He broke the kiss and rained butterfly kisses down her smooth neck. His nimble fingers quickly undid her top and Sakura caught up in the moment never noticed. He latched onto a nipple and began playing with the other one.

Sakura's back arched as Sasuke's talented fingers played with her chest. He began massaging her breast and she felt herself get even wetter.

Sasuke lifted her up and gently deposited her on the bed. He removed the rest of her dress with placing kisses all over her body. He tossed the dress aside and kissed his way back up. He stopped at the inside of her thighs and placed love bits there before soothing it with kisses.

The pink haired girl's cheeks burned as he looked at her and slowly pulled her underwear down with his teeth. He tossed the underwear aside before looking back at her. He ran his hand down her slit and watched as Sakura's back arched as she moaned in pleasure. He slowly entered a finger in her and began pumping. He added another finger and continued watching her facial expressions.

Sakura panted and moaned as the pleasure coursed throughout her body. It was like the time at the Uchiha mansion hallway, except better. Something was tightening inside her and she didn't know what but she was desperate to find out. The ball tightening inside her finally exploded and Sakura screamed Sasuke's name in pleasure. She came down from her high just in time to hear Sasuke whisper to her.

"This'll hurt."

Sakura nodded her head and Sasuke slowly entered her. He paused when he reached her hymen and then pushed the rest of the way in. She cried out in pain and he paused again, waiting for her to get accustomed to his size. When she nodded her head, Sasuke pulled out of her and plunged back in. He kept a slow pace, not wanting to hurt her.

"Faster." She panted.

He went faster.

"Harder." She breathed out.

He did just that.

Soon the headboard was banging against the wall and her moans and scream, his groans and their panting filled the room. They were oblivious to everyone else but each other and didn't care if anyone else could hear them.

"Oh, OH, Sasuke-kun!"

"That's it baby, say my name." He encouraged.

"OH KAMI! OH KAMI! SASUKE-KUN!"

Her nails raked down his back as he continued to plunge into her. He began whispering dirty things to her which further turned Sakura on.

This was better than she could have ever imagined. The feelings coursing through her were incredible and what made it even better was that it was with the man she loves.

Sasuke pulled back out and plunged back in again. She was so warm and tight and she felt so good.

"Fuck Sakura, you feel so good."

The only response he got was another moan. He could feel her tightening around him and knew she was going to cum soon.

"Come on Angel, cum for me." He seductively whispered in her ear.

She moaned but couldn't cum just yet. He leaned down and lightly bit on her neck and then kissed it. This set her off and she arched her back, screaming his name as she came.

He came soon after and collapsed on top of her. He quickly rolled off her, not wanting to crush her and lay on his back panting. He disposed of the condom and when Sakura laid her head on his chest, he wrapped an arm around her.

"I love you." She whispered before falling asleep.

Sasuke was falling asleep as well but automatically stiffened when he heard those words. He had the sudden desire to get away from her as panic set in. He quietly got off the bed and Sakura moaned at the loss of warmth but luckily didn't wake up. The Uchiha quickly dressed and left the room. He couldn't help but glance back at her sleeping from. The feeling that shot through him only further scared him and he quickly walked out the door closing it softly behind him.

Naruto and Hinata looked up to see Sasuke walk into the room. They had both heard the noises across the hall but chose not to say anything to him.

Sasuke didn't say anything and just walked into the bathroom. He turned on the shower and stripped out of his clothes. He stood underneath the water and finally let his thoughts loose.

'What am I going to do? She loves me? Maybe she didn't mean it; we did have sex in the heat of the moment after all. No, of course she meant it; Sakura's not the type of girl to just casually say something like that. I' m so fucked. I never thought of what I'd do if she fell in love with me. I don't know if I can break her heart. I have no choice though; I can't just lead her on. I have to be a man about this; I brought this upon myself after all.'

Sasuke grabbed the shampoo and began washing his hair.

'What was that feeling I felt before I left Sakura. Could I be falling in love with her? Am I already in love with her? No, I'm not in love with her, I can't be! I don't do love.'

Sasuke pushed that disturbing thought out of his mind and finished taking his shower.

The next morning the four walked back to the village with Akure.

Sakura didn't know what to do. She woke up this morning to find Sasuke gone. When she saw him he seemed different around her, as if he was pulling himself away from her.

'What's going on?'

She wanted to ask him about it but she was afraid to. She was afraid that he was just using her.

'I have to talk to him about this though. I can't ignore this just because I'm afraid of the answer. I have to be strong.'

Sasuke was aware of the fact that Sakura knew something was wrong. She wasn't stupid after all. He wasn't looking forward to the conversation he knew she wanted to have, he was going to have to break her heart and it made him feel extremely guilty. He was not in a good mood because of this and Akure wasn't helping. Finally having enough, the Uchiha turned around.

"Shut up." He ordered in a deadly tone.

Akure immediately shut his mouth. The raven haired male was very scary and he didn't want to get on his bad side.

Suddenly Sasuke whipped out some shuriken and threw them. Everyone looked surprised when a body fell to the ground.

'Hm, the other three dodged them.'

With that thought, he activated his Sharingan to locate them.

"Be on your guard, there are three more enemy shinobi hiding, they're most likely here to retrieve Akure."

As soon as he said this various weapons came flying towards them. Everyone dodged with Sakura bringing Akure down with her.

Three mist shinobi appeared wit ha slash going through their forehead protectors, signifying they were missing nin. (A/N. Does anyone know what the forehead protectors are called in Japanese?)

Sasuke unsheathed his Kusanagi and prepared to do battle.

Sakura slammed her fist into the ground and a huge crack appeared. The ninja looked shocked but was able to dodge at the last second. She ran towards him and the two engaged in taijutsu. Realizing this was going no where Sakura jumped back and quickly disappeared, only to reappear behind the ninja. She kicked him in the back and when he went flying, quickly appeared back in front of him and kicked him in the stomach. He fell to the ground unconscious and Sakura stood guard in front of Akure, letting her teammates fight more effectively not having to keep an eye on him as well and waited for her them to finish fighting.

Sasuke and Sakura were walking down the hallway. The four had just delivered the mission scroll and Naruto and Hinata had gone on ahead to get some ramen. Sasuke was looking forward to going home because he no longer had to stay at his parent's house. During a storm last month, he and Itachi's roofs had gotten damaged and had just gotten fixed. (A/N. I'm not sure if anyone is confused but Sasuke and Itachi live in separate houses at the Uchiha District.)

An uncomfortable silence had settled over the two and Sasuke was hoping that Sakura wouldn't bring up that topic but no such luck.

"Sasuke-kun, can we talk in private?"

"Aa, my house."

Sakura nodded her head and silence settled over the two again.

Dread settled in the pit of Sakura's stomach. She had a feeling this conversation wouldn't end well but they had to discuss this even if he ended up breaking her heart.

'Which I'm sure he'll do.'

It seemed to Sakura that they had arrived at his house too soon. He unlocked his door and stepped aside to let her in. He followed her inside and shut the door.

"Drink?" He asked her.

She shook her head.

"This isn't a social call."

"I know."

"What's wrong with you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Don't play stupid. Why have you been acting so distant towards me?"

"I'm not exactly a people person Sakura."

"Stop avoiding the fuckin' question!" She snapped losing her patience.

He raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Did last night mean nothing to you?"

He continued to stare at her for so long that she thought he wouldn't answer her question.

"Yes." He said trying to convince himself.

She looked at him as if he'd killed her puppy and he wanted to take back the words but he didn't. He didn't want to think about the feeling he'd felt last night.

Sakura quickly wiped that look of her face but she knew the damage was already done for he had already seen it.

"So you used me?"

A cold and blank look came over his face as he prepared to continue breaking her heart.

"Of course, you think you actually meant something? Don't be so naïve Sakura." He said with cold eyes.

A small gasp of shock passed through her lips as the jade eyed girl felt as if her heart were breaking into a million pieces. Tears stung her eyes but she wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing her cry.

'He'd probably enjoy it.'

"I see." She whispered.

Sakura wanted to scream, to throw things and hit him but she was too proud too. She'd show him, she'd walk out of here with her head held high.

The raven haired male watched Sakura desperately try to keep it together.

'It's better this way, she doesn't need a fuck up like me. Besides I don't love her, I just used her.'

He pushed the thought of his mind that he was lying and continued to look at Sakura.

"You're lying." She whispered.

"First you say you understand and know this desperate attempt? Stop being so pathetic Sakura. You know I'm not lying."

He paused before he pounded the final nail into her heart.

"Listen to me closely Sakura. I. Don't. Love. You. I never have and I never will. You were just a conquest and nothing more. I. Don't. Love. You." He repeated.

The pink haired girl squeezed her eyes shut and bit her lip as each word he said broke her heart until it finally shattered. She quickly turned around and left his house, the door slamming shut behind her.

Sasuke stared at his door feeling like the worst person ever.

Sakura leaned against his door as tears seeped out of her closed eyes. She poofed back to her bedroom so no one in the village would see her and ask questions. The desire to throw things had left her and she simply collapsed onto her bed.

'Why Kami, why me?'

Funny, just last night she was screaming his name and now she was asking him why this happened to her.

Sakura curled up into the fetal position, rocking back and forth as sobs racked her body.

'Why, why, why?'

Loud sobs continued to fill the room as Sakura continued to sob her poor heart out.

I'm sorry it's been so long since I updated. My laptop needed to be fixed. My beta reader for this story unfortunately can no longer be my beta reader, which is why this chapter is unbetaed. I'm in need of a new beta reader, would anyone be interested?

Please review!
