Chapter 7

Sakura woke up to Sasuke's warmth surrounding her and she sighed, this was the fourth time this week that they had slept together, it was odd, both of them making silly excuses as to why they needed to sleep together when in the end they both knew why, they just refused to admit to the other how much they missed them and how comforting the warmth of someone is when you've never felt it before.

Sakura moved Sasuke's arms slightly, and stood up "5 more minutes" Sasuke asked grabbing her hand.

"No, I'm going to make breakfast" She said.

He looked up at her and their eyes met she looked at his eyes and she could tell he was trying to persuade her to lay back down. She shook her head and continued to walk away.

"Not so fast" he said as he got up and wrapped his arms around her waist to pull her back to the bed.

She yelped, "Sasuke!" she said surprised.

"What?" He asked as they landed on the bed.

She turned her head to see a smug smirk on his face. "Jerk" she murmured jokingly as she attempted to get up once again, He sighed "Fine", his arms released her and she got out of bed.

Sakura entered the kitchen and started to cook an omelet, she continued to cook another omelet and found herself singing. Sasuke, who heard her singing and smelled food stood at the door way and watched, amazed, up until Sakura spun around to set the omelets on the table and almost dropped the dishes. She cursed under her breath "Why didn't you say something?"

"I got distracted" He said as he took a seat in the chair.

She got them something to drink and joined him. "The omelet's good" He commented taking another bite.

"Thanks" She said.

It got silent and Sasuke finished his omelet "We don't have any work today, you want to do something?" He asked.

"Sure" she answered "What do you have in mind?"

"I don't know. I guess we could walk around"

"Okay, I'll go get ready" she said as she put her dish in the sink.

Sasuke sat on the couch waiting for Sakura who had claimed 15 minutes ago that she needed 5 more minutes to get ready. He sighed; it seemed as if females always needed more time to get dressed "I'm ready to go!" Sakura said as she ran from the hallway wearing a tank top and shorts.

They walked down the street and had to stop occasionally so Sakura could talk to people she knew. "You know everybody" he said as they left from talking to the sixth person she knew, "Sorry" She said laughing.

"You want to get some coffee?" Sasuke asked.

"Sure" She said as they walked in.

When they got in Sasuke ordered a black coffee and Sakura ordered a strawberry frappicino, "What does black coffee taste like?" Sakura asked curiously.

"Here" He said handing it over to her.

She held it in her hands and sipped a small bit, as soon as the taste came in contact with her tongue her face scrunched up, Sasuke chuckled, "I have no idea how you drink that" She said handing him back his cup.

"I don't know how you drink that" He said pointing to her frappicino.

"Mine tastes better than that" He said.

"Try it" She insisted.

He took the cold cup hesitantly and sipped a small bit from her straw. "It's too sweet" He complained.

"You never did like sweets" She said as her eyes softened and she spaced out.

"Sakura" He said.

"Oh, sorry" She apologized "You want to walk around?"

"Sure" He said getting up taking his coffee with him.

They walked and conversed with each other not even noticing the gray clouds suspended above them in the sky as they went further and further from Sasuke's house.

"What?" Sakura said as she felt a drop of water fall on her skin.

She looked up and Sasuke did the same, "We might want to leave" He said.

"Yeah" She said "and we might want to run", she went in the direction of the house and started to run "Try to keep up, okay?" she joked.

He ran after her and before they knew it the rain came down, pouring in large drops of water. They kept going until they made it to the house and tried to dry "I'm soaked" Sakura said as she squeezed the water out of her hair.

"You and me both" He said as he took off his shirt.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"Oh, is it making you uncomfortable?" He said teasing her as he lifted his shirt up slower.

"No" She said embarrassed.

"Okay" He said as he threw the shirt to the ground and shook his head, in a motion that made him look like he belonged in an episode of bay watch. After finishing he looked over at Sakura who tried to look as if she could care less, which didn't work because he could see the pink that resided on her cheeks.

He then watched as she started to lift her tank top off her stomach, "Why are you taking your tank top off?" He asked.

"Oh, is it making you uncomfortable?" She asked smirking at him and watching his face turn red "Just kidding!" She said pulling her tank top back on.

"Very funny, I'm going to go in and get some towels to dry off with" Sasuke said.

She nodded and waited until Sasuke came out with a few towels, she wrapped up her hair and put the towel around her body and undressed herself underneath, keeping her underwear on. Sasuke looked over at her to see her carrying her damp clothing and his heart sped up at the thought that Sakura wasn't wearing much clothing under that towel, "Sakura, what are you doing?" He asked.

"Well, if I keep my clothes on I'll catch a cold" She answered, noticing how uncomfortable he was feeling.

"Oh" he said, 'Do something' 'Why would I do something?' 'A girl in a towel is standing in front of you and you're not going to do anything?' 'That's right' then, just seconds later Sakura slipped on some water and fell toward him. She clung to him and he held her, "Sorry" she apologized looking up at him.

"It's fine" He said looking back down at her.

She steadied herself and walked into the house walking slow, careful not to slip. Sasuke watched her "Do you want me to carry you?" He asked "It'd be a lot faster"

"If you don't mind" She answered.

Sasuke carefully lifted her up and carried her bridal style through the house which made her blood rush to her face, "You okay?" he asked as he looked down at her with a smug smirk.

"I'm fine" she said looking away from him.

He entered her room and set her down on her bed. "Thank you" she said.

"You're welcome" He said leaving.

He closed the door and she feel back on the bed and stared up at the ceiling.
