Ami stared at the fine specimen of male sitting alone in the waiting area. Maybe it wasn't so bad she got stuck with the night shift. She would stay all night if Uchiha Sasuke accompanied her. Or she could convince him to accompany her back home. Maybe that's why he was here. He's been there even before her shift started and that was hours ago. Why else would he still be here at this godforsaken time?

With a vixen's grin she impatiently waited for when she could make her move. She used the time to reapply make up and adjust her uniform for maximum exposure. What guy could resist a sexy and willing nurse? A quick glance at the clock told her her shift was finally over and the fun was about to start. Before she could proceed, someone else approached her target. Her face twisted in a glower. Haruno Sakura. Her superior. God she hated that word, especially when it came to Sakura. The Sakura that use to cower under her gaze, but now Ami had to take orders from her. Karma's a real bitch.

Everything has to go Sakura's way. She's Sasuke's teammate, Tsunade's pupil, head of the hospital, loved by the village, and respected by the shinobi nation. And now she's going to ruin her night.

"Sasuke your still here?"

"Hn." She smiled at him, like she knew what that meant. Ami snarled inwardly, yet another thing she couldn't do.

"I'm sorry I'm late. Last minute surgery."

"It's fine."

"Then why are you pouting?"

"I'm not!"

"I'll make it up to you. How 'bout dinner at my place?" Ami anticipated Sasuke refusal. Instead he stood and held his hand out to Sakura, which she took happily. Ami glared at the oblivious pair as they made their way out and she really didn't need to see or hear the bit at the end of their conversation. Kami hates her anyway so why not make it worse.

"Are you staying after dinner?" All Sakura got as a response was a wicked smirk that gave her a glimpse of perfect teeth.

Not long after they left, a furious huff left Ami's lips. She stomped out of the hospital. Alone.

Yup, karma's a real bitch.
