Recap:

An awkward silence filled the room. All three of her friends were staring at her.

Chapter 5:

Hinata looked slightly afraid. Naruto had crossed his arms in confusion and Sasuke just stared at her. Sakura felt embarrassed. Why had she have to say that? Now everybody knew it and Sasuke would do, kami knows what. It remained silent.

Naruto was too confused, Hinata too afraid and Sasuke didn't had the urge to say anything.

So everyone ate their mail in silence. After dinner, Sakura excused herself and Naruto and Hinata were leaving. Sakura went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Just when she had finished, the bathroom door opened and Sasuke entered.

He froze on his place, his eyes widened. Neither of them moved. Sakura was wet, and the worst part was that she was also still naked. There was no towel nearby and she looked shocked at the prodigy. A cold breeze entered the bathroom and Sakura shivered. Sasuke couldn't help himself, but noticed what the breeze did with her gorgeous body. He swallowed. He couldn't move. He just stood there and stared at the wet, pink haired girl in front of him. That sight wanted him to do some nasty things with her and many dirty thoughts crossed his mind. Once again he swallowed.

Can't she just cover herself up? He thought, not liking it that she could make him feel this way.

Sakura on the other hand, couldn't move as well. Sasuke just stood there gazing at her. She was bare naked. Then she snapped out of it.

"Get out of here!" She yelled. Sasuke shook his head and closed the door. He was still standing in the bathroom though, together with Sakura.

He grabbed a towel, handed it over to her, saying: "You'll catch a cold if you don't dry yourself."

Sakura was stunned. This was not what she had expected. Yet, she did not cover herself up. She didn't even react on the towel Sasuke was holding.

She just thought: Kami-sama, I'm naked. Sasuke-kun sees me while I'm naked. How do I have to look him in the eye again without feeling embarrassed? What does he think? Help! She thought when he took two steps in her direction.

"Sa-Sasuke-kun," she whispered half anxious.

He wrapped the towel around her body and said nothing. Yet, he didn't move away from her.

"Why-why aren't y-you leaving?" She whispered again. Slightly turning pink.

Sasuke bent over to her and whispered in her ear: "Since you've seen me naked, it's only fair that I see you naked."

Sakura's blush ten folded.

"I haven't seen you naked," she protested. "You were still wearing a towel!"

"Well, I offered to remove it," he answered slowly.

Sakura turned crimson.

"I see that you know what I mean," smirked Sasuke.

"Sa-Sasuke-kun!"

But Sasuke didn't say anything in return. He started to kiss her neck. Sakura gasped.

"Sasuke-kun," she moaned excited.

"You're beautiful," he whispered and crushed his lips against hers. She returned the kiss eagerly. He pressed his body against hers until they she was standing against the wall with her back.

Sakura groaned and tried to pull his shirt off. Sasuke lifted his arms in order to help her, but because of that movement the towel dropped, so Sakura was naked again. She managed to pull his shirt off and wrapped her arms around him. Sasuke eagerly kissed her again. His hands were moving across her body and they went self-assured to her breasts where he could feel her stiff nipples.

Sakura moaned again in excitement as Sasuke bent his head down and kissed one of her breasts. His tongue was gliding over her nipples. Sakura grabbed his raven black hair with her fingers and pressed his head against her chest.

Sasuke moved his head again towards her lips after playing with her nipples. Sakura sighed in disappointment. She didn't have to be disappointed though, because an Uchiha would never be a disappointment in bed!

He picked her up bridal style and opened the bathroom door with his elbow. He carried her to her room and let her down on her own bed. He pulled his shorts down and put himself on top of her body.

Sakura's eyes were closed.

"I've dreamt about this for a long time," Sasuke said in a low, deep voice. He kissed her neck again and moved his hands between her legs. He noticed that she was pretty wet down there.

"You like it, don't you?" he smirked.

"O Sasuke-kun, I've waited for this so long," she answered, not feeling any embarrassment.

"I love your body," Sasuke replied, looking straight into her emerald eyes. She gazed right into his onyx eyes.

"I love you Sasuke-kun, I did, I do and I always will."

He crushed his mouth again against hers and entered her beautiful body.

Sakura felt the pain, but at the same time it was a wonderful experience. It was intense. This was her Sasuke-kun, lying on top of her.

He moved faster and faster and she pushed her nails into his strong masculine shoulders. She started panting as did he.

Then he came.

Sweat was falling down his forehead.

"Sakura," he muttered, before rolling off of her. Both of them panting heavily.

She was a virgin. Good. Just like me, Sasuke thought. Now she is definitely mine.

Sakura gently touched his chest.

"Sasuke-kun," she started, but he interrupted her.

"Sakura, you're mine now. You have to marry me. You liked this, didn't you? I don't want you to do this with anyone else." He looked at her with his dark, onyx eyes. Sakura found them irresistible. She would love to become his wife, if only he could love her. She stretched out her hand and let it slip through his raven black hair. Tears were glistering in her eyes.

"Sasuke-kun, you could never love me, although I love to be with you and I love you."

She really loves me? She still loves me? After all that has happened? Sasuke glanced at her green eyes. They were filled with pain. It nearly broke his heart. She loves me so much, that it hurts her badly. She can't cry. I don't want her to cry. Nobody should ever hurt her! He embraced her into a tight hug.

"Don't cry, Sakura. You're to sweet to cry. I'll take good care of you. I won't let anyone ever hurt you again."

Sakura looked up to him and blushed.

"Do you… Would you like to go out with me tomorrow night? There will be a big festival in town. You can hide yourself underneath a mask, so nobody will recognize you."

Her blush turned deeper. "Please, Sasuke-kun?"

Sasuke couldn't resist her. She was so sweet and lovely and… Vulnerable? Yes. He wanted to protect her, with his own life. Did that pink haired kunoichi actually managed to make him care for her? To make his cold and lonely heart love? Somewhere deep inside of him, he hoped so. It was too early to say that he loved her. It was too hard to understand those new created feelings, after all those years of only feeling hatred and revenge.

"Sure," he muttered in her hair. "But I'm not going to wear a mask. I'll just show myself."

She smiled her brightest smile at him. She looked so happy. Now that was the Sakura he knew. He didn't wanted her to be said ever again.

"Arigato, Sasuke-kun," she smiled. Then she turned around to fall asleep, with his hands wrapped around her tiny waist.

Sasuke closed his eyes. He came with the intention to claim Sakura as his wife, but somehow she had been able to make him… appreciate her. He didn't love her. He just wanted to protect her. He used to think of her as an annoying fangirl, stalking him everywhere he went. She had become stronger, both mentally and physically. And… she turned him on with that delicious body of hers and that pink hair…

He really liked that new side of her.

Somewhere, he thought, it was a good thing that I have been away for a while. Sakura has really been able to develop herself.

With that last thought, he fell asleep, his body tight to Sakura's.

As Sakura woke up the next morning, she yawned and tried to turn around, but she wasn't been able to. She was captured in a strong embrace. She suddenly remembered what had happened the other night.

She could feel how Sasuke moved in his sleep. His body came even closer to hers. Then she felt something different, something against her lower back. It was hard. Sakura frowned for a second and flushed as she figured out what it was.

He is having a… O kami-sama, he is, Sakura thought. Okay! He likes us very much! Inner Sakura shouted.

He could just be asleep, she thought, then it doesn't mean anything.

"Sasuke-kun," she whispered, rather shocked.

"Yes?" He answered slowly.

O no, O no… So he is awake.

She didn't know what to answer. An awkward silence fell.

Then Sasuke started to kiss her neck. His tongue was gliding over her sensitive skin.

"Sa-Sasuke-kun!" She gasped. He didn't bother to answer.

Suddenly a loud voice screamed: "Sakura!"

"Ino-pig," Sakura whispered worried. Obviously she'd come back from her mission and decided to drop by. Sakura wished she could do something to stop her from walking towards her bedroom.

Please forget it, don't come over here, she prayed. But it was just like Ino was dragged to Sakura's bedroom by those thoughts.

"Sakura! It's time to get up girl!" she yelled before the door crushed open. "Sakura, I…"

Ino's jaw dropped as she saw Sakura lying in bed with Sasuke. To make this awkward seen even more embarrassing, Shikamaru decided to come after Ino.

"Oi, Ino, you troublesome woman. We have to go and report to the Godaime, that…" He was standing behind Ino, but was very able to see what Ino was staring at. Luckily he wasn't like Ino. So he grabbed her shirt and dragged her with him.

"I don't think this is the right time to talk to Sakura."

And without turning around, he added: "Oi, Sakura. You might as well lock the door the next time.

Sasuke smirked. Sakura stared at him in shock.

"How can you smirk after something like that happened?" She asked in disbelieve.

"Well, Yamanaka will probably tell everyone she knows about this incident. In a few seconds everyone will know that you are mine."

After he had said this, he kissed 'his' Sakura. (A/N: We will give them some privacy as well ;))

That afternoon, Sakura, Tenten, Hinata and Ino were sitting together at Hinata's.

"It was quite a good idea of Naruto to hang out with the boys, so we could have a little time hanging out ourselves," Ino said.

"Yeah, it was a good idea. I'm glad Sasuke wanted come along with them, so Sakura could be here as well. I wonder if his former fangirls are chasing him again. I mean it's no longer a secrete that Sasuke came back. Thanks to Ino," Tenten added.

"Well, at least I told everyone as well that he's hooked up with Sakura now." Ino seemed pretty with herself. Sakura blushed.

"Yeah, tell us about it, Sakura," Tenten said.

"Well, I and Sasuke-kun… We… You know," it was not that easy to talk about.

"Don't be afraid to say it Sakura, we all did it. How large was he?" Tenten asked out of curiosity.

"T-Tenten-chan," Hinata exclaimed shocked.

"D-Does, h-h-he still wants t-to marry you, Sakura-chan?" Hinata asked.

"I don't know," Sakura sighed. "All I want is that he loves me."

"Don't we all?" Ino sighed.

"O please, Ino-pig," Sakura answered. "You have your Shikamaru."

"Well, I'm just saying that we all want love, forehead girl! I'm not saying that I don't have it, do I?"

"Who are you calling forehead girl, you pig!" Sakura yelled.

"P-Please g-girls, don't f-f-fight," Hinata said in a soft tone.

"Hinata is right," Tenten interfered.

"Well, at least you all have a caring boyfriend," Sakura sighed. "Naruto, Neji and Shikamaru are really nice. I just wished Sasuke-kun would love me. Then I would have absolutely no doubts about marrying him.

"What makes you so sure he doesn't?" Ino asked.

"Well…" Sakura thought about that question. "He never said he did," she finished.

"Make him," Tenten suggested.

"I wish I could," Sakura sighed again.

"Well, I think you're doing fine, considering the fact that you've slept with him! I mean, damn, he used to pay no attention to any girl at all," Ino clearly didn't see the problem.

"H-He must l-l-like you indeed, S-Sakura-chan."

"See Sakura! Ino was right. You're on the right way."

"The only reason he came to me, was because I'm the only girl he kind of knows and the only available kunoichi," Sakura stated bitterly.

"No Sakura, that's not true. He must really like you. he came to you, because you are the only one that knows him. He's maybe a little harsh and not so careful with his words, but what can one expect? He's lost his entire family at the age of eight, the only one left was his brother, who committed this crime. Next, that bastard told him to kill him and he does it. That means he is totally alone now, but craving for a family. He chooses you to start that family with and maybe he didn't bring it very romantic or maybe he was a little selfish, but he choose you! He actually wants you! That is what's important. Gosh, you have to read between the lines Sakura. So much to learn for you," Ino sighed.

The other girls looked quite impressed.

"Wow Ino, the fact that Shikamaru is your boyfriend is finally paying off. I mean… That was really deep," Tenten grinned.

"S-Sakura-chan?" Hinata asked shyly. All the girls were looking at her. "Yes?" Sakura said expectantly.

"W-Well, did S-Sasuke-kun a-actually s-s-said in s-so many words t-that he only wanted t-to marry you, because y-you're the only available k-kunoichi?" She blushed a little after her question.

That made Sakura think. Had he said something like that? Actually… Hinata was right. She had come up with the the-others-are-not-available-stuff. He hadn't even talked about other girls. She had just assumed he had.

"Hinata, you're right! He's never said something like that."

"You're a genius, Hinata!" Ino excitingly hugged the Hyuga heiress.

"Well, now you know this, you're already one step closer to him," Tenten smiled.

"Hmm… I wonder what Shika-kun and the others are doing," wondered Ino, while she touched her chin with her left index finger.

Meanwhile…

All the guys were staring at Sasuke.

"Wow teme, that were quite a few harsh years you've had." Naruto looked at his best friend.

"Hn," The only remaining Uchiha said.

"Sounds really troublesome."
"Well, it is good to hear that there is at least one Akatsuki member less," Neji admitted.

"What are you going to do about the Sakura-chan not wanting you thingy?" Naruto asked curiously. He didn't expect an answer from his best friend, or at least something like: 'That is none of your business'. But not the answer Sasuke gave them: "Sakura and I are doing pretty fine, actually."

Neji sniffed: "Define pretty fine, please."

"We slept together last night." The others were staring at him.

"You mean like… Sleeping together in one bed… or… Actually doing some… business," Naruto asked carefully.

Before Sasuke could answer that question, Shikamaru replied: "The way I found them this morning, I think both."

Sasuke glared at him.

So far, so good! I hope you all liked it!

How will Naruto react on Shikamaru's remark?

Shikamaru: Che, way too troublesome of course.

Me: If you say so...

'poof' Kakashi appears: Oi, don't forget about me!

Me: You're late!

Kakashi: Read and Review!
