Sorry this has taken so long. It has been years since I've written this... I hope you'll forgive me some. I already have another chapter in the works, so it won't go so long until another update. Please forgive me again. This is un-beta'd as I don't have one. :3

*****

Sakura loved her days off, with no mission, no training and not having to be at the hospital she could spend the day in some semblance of to fully shake off last nights sleep, she bounced off of her bed into the bathroom. Mentally she ran through her plans for the day. Cleaning, taking her weapons in for some maintenance, she was probably going to need a new set of kunai. Sakura wanted to pick up some senbon with the purpose of learning more techniques that Shizune has promised to teach her. As Sakura looked into her fridge to for something to eat she included going shopping for food on that list. Mindlessly she put rice in the cooker to cook while she started on the cleaning. "

It was when she sat down to eat a bowl of rice when it started. Phantom fingertips tickled the backs of her hands, sliding up to cup her was momentarily startled, but relaxed when she recognized Neji's bandaged hands. They caressed up to her neck. Sakura closed her eyes and it was like he was there in front of her, one palm stayed on her neck with his thumb caressing the underside of her jaw, the other left feather like finger touches across her shoulder, teasing dipping further and further down towards her breast. His phantom finger tips circled her nipple a few times before pinching it. Sakura gasped as a jolt of heat shot through her body. Neji's thumb ran over her lips and then ran down her body to her hip, then disappeared off.

"He must have put a timed genjutsu on her yesterday," she thought. She gasped when the the hand cupped her between the legs. Moaning she opened her legs on the chair, her hands clenched on the seat. Sakura was breathing heavy as Neji's thumb made unhurried circles on the little nub between her legs. Sakura knew there was nothing there but she could feel the pressure and it was a slow torture. Phantom lips joined in as the kissed and sucked at the hollow over her neck. Her panties were wet, she laughed as she knew she was going to have to change her pants. The other fingers on the lower hand slipped inside of her, pumping in and out slowly. She rocked on the chair to the rhythm he'd set.

His mouth and other hand found their way to her nipples, sucking and pinching them in the same rhythm he'd created. Sakura moaned loudly at the rhythm got faster and faster, rocking on the chair until it was almost going to tip over. Her stomach began to quiver as little waves of pleasure built up one after another. Her head was thrown back and she didn't care what the sight of her must have looked like. Gasping little moans, she jumped as her orgasm burst on her, wave after wave continued as the fingers were relentless in their pursuit. Finally the slowed down, letting her down slowly. The hands tickled over her body and the phantom mouth kissed her lips softly and they all disappeared together.

Sakura sat there with a stupid grin on her mouth while her breathing became slower. She didn't know what that was all about, the soft kiss at the end. Their embraces had never been like that before. Mostly it was about getting the other person off the quickest way possible. It hadn't been slow like that. She realized that she wanted his touch for real, not these games they had been playing with each other. Sighing she got up and went to change, she didn't know what she was going to do, but she knew that she wanted to do something.

She had never thought of him like this before the fight. He was smart, polite and handsome, however he seemed so unapproachable. Everyone knew he had responsibilities to his clan. He was more determined then Sasuke in Sakura's opionon. She wanted to get to know more about some errands might help her think things out a bit. Sakura grabbed her things and went outside.

He'd been waiting for her, sitting on the railing outside her apartment. She turned crimson when she met his eyes, his face was in that little smirk of his. He was just so pleased with himself wasn't he, the bastard. Sakura closed the door behind her and set her bag on the ground. She moved slow enough that if he didn't want her there he could have avoided her, stopping when she was flush between his legs. Sakura wrapped her arms around his body, her head tucked on his shoulder and let her weight fall into his.

"Good Morning," he said as his arms came around her.

"Yes it was," She replied, giggling, her fingers playing with his hair, "Come with me today, I have some errands to run, groceries to pick up. I'll make us some lunch and then afterwords..." She let her voice trail off.

Neji's hand pulled her head back, forcing her to look at him," Afterwords then," He said, then lightly kissed her mouth.

They started off down the street, side by side.

"Where are we heading?" asked Neji.

"I want to drop off some weapons for maintenance, pick up a few new ones. There's a little shop that I go to at the end of the street."

"I am familiar with that one. We too use that shop."

Conversation lulled again. It wasn't awkward though, it was relaxing. It continued until they turned into the weapons shop.

"Ohiyo Chika-chan!" Sakura said.

"Ohiyo Sakura-chan," the greeting paused, "O..Ohayo gozaimasu Hyuga-sama, what a pleasant surprise to see you here. What can I do for you both?"

"Chaka-chan I need some maintence on these," Sakura put her bag of weapons on the counter. "Also I need some senbon's, Shizune is going to show me a few things with them," She beamed at the two of them.

"Okay, so is today the day?" Chika asked?

"No not yet, Chika, but one day I'll get it!" Sakura laughed.

"Get what?" asked Neji.

Sakura pulled Neji towards the back of the shop where, sitting there on the wall was ornate Tessen. It was white silk with a cherry blossom tree in bloom on the front, with sharp iron handles decorated to look like wood. It looked delicate, but was extremely lethal. The perfect weapon for this kunoichi.

"Wrap it up, put it on my account." Neji said to Chika who gladly went and got the fan weapon off the wall to wrap it up in the back room.

Sakura looked at Neji wide eyed in shock, "Neji-kun?"

His hand came up to cradle her chin, his thumb ran over her bottom lip, mimicking what happened early this morning and Sakura felt heat pool in her stomach and a flush appreared on her face. Sakura's breath caught as she saw the raw emotion appeared on Neji's face before he kissed her hungrily.

He straightened up, his face becoming blank once more and moved a small distance away from Sakura a moment before Chika came out with a wooden box that the fan came in. Sakura went and finished up the transaction for her weapons and collected the box. With the box clutched to her chest she turned to Neji.

"Thank you, Neji-kin."

He smiled, "You're welcome. I believe we are off to the grocers next. And then afterwords..."

"Hai, afterwords."

There was to be no afterwords though. In the middle of them shopping an Anbu showed up looking for Neji. With a caress to her face and a slight quirk in his smile he left. So Sakura finished up her shopping and trudged home. When he didn't show up, she guess he'd been sent on a mission and wouldn't be by anytime that day. Disappointed she finished her list and got on with her day off, relaxing.
