Chapter 2

Sakura woke up rubbing her eyes that had become crusty from sleeping. When she sat up she remembered last night. 'What a loser' she said messaging her temples. She got up carefully and checked the clock before she tiptoed down the stairs to the kitchen 'Good, it's only 8'. She quickly glanced at couch to see that Sasuke was still sleeping peacefully and let out an exasperated sigh, knowing that when he woke up she was going to have to face him.

When she got into the kitchen she went ahead and started to make breakfast. She set out the eggs, toast and butter.

Sasuke's eyes opened slowly, almost wanting to get up from Sakura's comfortable couch. He laid there and yawned, noticing that something was being cooked up in the kitchen. 'Smells good' he thought. He got up and cautious not to startle Sakura, he stood at the door way watching her as she broke, mixed and flipped eggs. "Good morning, Sasuke" she said knowing he was there the whole time.

He was shocked, but what was to be expected of a highly trained anbu and medical ninja? He kept his expression the same and replied with a good morning also. When he looked over at Sakura's progress she was already putting things on plates. "You can take a seat Sasuke" she said setting down the plates and pouring 2 cups of milk.

He looked at the food, probably the best, and only, home cooked meal he had in 8 years. When she set them down at the table she then went to grab her phone, "I'll join you in a minute, I just have to make a quick phone call" she said.

"Hello?" Tsunade said answering the phone.

"Good morning, it's Sakura"

"Sakura, how are you? I heard Sasuke was back"

"That's why I called I was wondering-"

"Are you calling for love advice? I think you and Sasuke would make an adorable couple and you're children-"

"No, no, no, I was wondering what time he should come to see you about his punishment" she said turning red.

"Oh" Tsunade said disappointed "Well whenever you can get over here, I'm empty until 11am"

"Alright thank you"

"Bye"

Sakura hung up and turned to Sasuke, who was graciously enjoying his meal, of course acting like it was any other though to remain cool. "Well, I contacted Tsunade and we're going to her office to discuss you punishment, I have a feeling though it's not going to be too bad" Sakura said.

"Hn" He said.

Sakura shook her head and laughed inwardly, 'He hasn't changed that much'.

When they both finished eating Sakura changed out of her pajamas, then she and Sasuke walked towards Tsunade's office. "It feels great outside" Sakura said as she stepped out into the sunlight.

Soon they entered the Hokage tower and walked up the stairs until they reached the right floor. "Come in" Tsunade said when Sakura knocked on the huge doors.

They entered and stood in front of Tsunade's desk, who lifted her head from her paper work. "Okay, so this isn't going to take long" she said joining her hands together "Sasuke, your punishment will be 2 months probation, 1 month cleaning the hospital, and another month of assisting with patients at the hospital"

"Who will he be staying with during his probation?" Sakura asked.

"You" Tsunade answered.

Sakura nodded, but gave Tsunade a look like she wanted to talk to her alone. "Sasuke, can you wait outside my office for a moment?" Tsunade asked.

He left and when the door closed Sakura began speaking. "Why am I looking out for him during his probation? You know instead of Naruto or Kakashi." Sakura asked.

"Because you're most qualified, and you know it, plus I can't interrupt their lives, Naruto and Hinata are moving in together soon and Kakashi, he's an adult, and…" she said pausing trying to think of another reason "It'd be good for you and Sasuke to spend some time together, you are the only ones who seem to be single" she said saying the last part very quietly.

Sakura sighed knowing she wasn't going to win this one "And here" Tsunade said throwing her some keys "You aren't staying in your house there's no room".

Sakura nodded and walked out. "What are those for?" Sasuke asked referring to the keys.

"I'm watching you at your place" Sakura said.

He nodded and they went to Sakura's house so she could pack. When Sakura had brought down her luggage Sasuke's eyes widened '6 bags?'. "Okay I'm ready" Sakura said.

Sasuke took some of her bags and they made their way to the old Uchiha mansion. When they arrived they opened the doors to reveal cobwebs and dust. "Whoa" Sakura said.

Sasuke showed her to a room and she was left to unpack. 'wow this place is dull' she thought as she examined the white room. She removed her things she brought from her room, which was practically everything.

"Looks good" She said as she looked around at her hard work.

'She's been gone for a long time…' Sasuke thought as he read his magazine 'Not like I care or anything' 'Yeah, sure you don't' 'I don't……… maybe I'll go check though, not like I have anything better to do…'. He got up and walked down the hallway to where Sakura's current room was. "Sakura" he said knocking on her door.

"Yes?" she said opening the door.

"Just checking up on you…" he said under his breath.

"Oh" she said smiling "Hey, you want to watch a movie?"

"I don't think I have any movies here…" he said.

"I figured" she said grabbing some movies from her bag.

"Pick one" she said holding them out in front of him.

"Well I haven't really watched movies in a long time…"

"It's okay you can pick a random one" she assured him.

He stood there thinking for a moment, and then grabbed one, a scary movie. Sakura put the other movies back and they made their way to the living room. She took a breath and put the movie in the dusty DVD player then took a seat on the couch, which luckily Sasuke had cleaned.

The movie began and eventually got to one of the scarier parts. Sakura brought her legs to her chest and covered her eyes. 'How cliché' Sasuke thought as a body was ripped to shreds. 'Does Sakura actually like these movies?' he thought as he turned to look as her. "Do you want to watch a different movie?" he asked as she shivered.

"No, no" she said, she then jumped onto Sasuke as multiple people were torn and ear splitting screams were let out.

They went silent as Sakura still held onto him blushing. 'Oh my god, I'm sitting on Sasuke's lap'. '…Sakura's sitting on my lap'. "Are you sure you don't want to change movies?" he asked trying to remain cool.

She remained silent as she caught his eyes with her green orbs, which happened quite fast. "I'll turn the movie off" Sasuke said as he cleared his throat and broke their gaze.

Sakura slid off his lap, disappointed, thinking that maybe, something was going to happen. 'That was too close' Sasuke thought as he took the DVD out. When he got up Sakura was out of the living room already down the hall and opening her bedroom door. He sighed and put the movie on the coffee table.
