18. Denying their feelings - unexpected love

CHAPTER 17

The raven haired Uchiha got closer to his maid one more time, almost daring her to serve him another lie. That was serious. Whoever was calling her had the answers he was looking for. He dropped his low baritone voice an octave almost whispering the words, in a dark way.

"Answer."

Sakura was glued to the ground, her body going numb as seconds passed. She was not even able to form a coherent thought or think about a lie she could say to save herself from the disastrous situation. Once she pulled out her CIA phone, it was going to be over.

And the main problem was not the ultra expensive device, but how in the world would she be able to justify such a phone in her possession.

And whoever was calling her from the other side of the line was probably someone important, because that was not her message ringtone, so she assumed it was not Karin, to discuss gossip and fashion. "I am so screwed!"

Moreover, the pink haired girl took into account the possibility of Aburame Shino repairing the internet connection, so the person calling her might be her papa Orochimaru, which was twice as bad news. "I have to think about something fast!"

But she couldn't do anything or think of anything for the matter, because the way Sasuke was looking at her had her trapped in the spot, unable to react in any way.

She felt her mouth going dry and she was aware of the fact that she was sweating like crazy and had her lips partly parted, having difficulties in breathing normally.

And the fact that he was so close to her was not helping much either, the earlier intimate moment still fresh into her memory.

The raven haired Uchiha had his eyebrows knotted, and his lips pressed together in a tight line, eying her like he could see right through her amount of lies and deceiving.

Sakura could not explain it, but in that very particular moment Sasuke had a deadly semblance around him, that screamed danger and killing intent. It was just like Naruto has told her, the beautiful man in front of her was maleficent and he was well aware of the fact. She took a gulp, feeling tiny goose bumps pinching the soft skin on her arms.

Sasuke was furious. Not in a million years would he have expected such a stunt. The problem was quite simple. Either his maid has lied to him for a reason that was slipping from his logic, and had a phone indeed, or she has given the number he gave her to someone else, for a reason he didn't understand.

According to what he knew about her, the emerald eyed maid knew no one in Japan, besides him. Hell, she didn't even speak Japanese! And the ringtone she had…was different from her normal one.

Sure, he was not going to be absurd and suppose the pink haired girl wasn't changing the sounds out of boredom but…he was quite sure the phone he gave her did not have such melody in the menu.

So, the other option was the viable one. Sakura had another phone, but for some unknown reason, she has hidden that fact from him. Why?

Didn't she want to keep in touch with him? He fixed her jaded orbs with his dark gaze, looking at the scintillating thin golden hues of her irises, dancing in panic and bewilderment.

He could read everything into those dazzling dark green nephrite widened eyes of hers, that were watching him in a way that screamed both help and back away. She was silently telling him to not meddle into her matters and omit the event, but he was damned if he did so.

Was Sakura that stupid to think he would be the kind of man to be played like that? She couldn't possibly be thinking he was a dumb idiot like his blonde friend. Naruto…yeah he had a problem with that as well.

He had three suspects in mind, regarding his office and who spied on him and neither of them came clean at the moment.

And to add to the stupor, the last person suspicious in the equation was his loathsome father. That man detested his son, so he probably did his best to stay away from him as much as he could.

Currently, Naruto and Sakura were equally suspicious, but his maid was doing her best to catch his attention, successfully.

The truth is, Sasuke got an ego boost that night, not believing his eyes that he indeed managed to take away his stolen goods and kill those bastards. He entertained the idea of torturing them into spitting whatever they knew about their boss to him, but that would have been to dangerous.

The onyx eyed Uchiha had contradicting feelings regarding the maid that was almost shaking in panic in front of him. She never left his side when he had problems, even going as far as to come in a dangerous place and risk to be hurt, just to take him out.

At the same time, he couldn't ignore the possibility of her staying by his side particularly for the reason to betray him and that made him burning with fury, because if his guess was correct, she was there for the sole purpose to seduce him into thinking she is the poor unfortunate woman who wants a place to work, when in reality she wanted to get as close as possible and trick him.

If Sasuke would have thought like that, everything made sense. How those people were able to rob him, why is his maid concealing her identity and why all her past is made of lies.

But her connection to Itachi and Naruto was even worse. Were all the three of them against the Uchiha heir? That would be too dumb to consider, even for a cautious man like him.

On the other hand, the midnight eyed man couldn't help but feel he is missing something important from his judgment.

The look in his maid`s eyes was striking his mind, to the point he really thought he was going to lose it for real. There was some other sort of emotion hidden behind those shimmering emerald eyes, one he couldn't place, but it screamed honesty and guilt.

And the way she was pursing her lips looked like she was ready to confess something to him, but she was internally debating if she should let him know or not.

Sasuke knew how to read people all right and this woman in front of him didn't strike like the manipulating type. He met those kind of women and he won't be fooled by any of their games. But that girl…

"What are you waiting for?" His voice was cold, low and dark, almost like he wanted to focus all his thoughts on his words, letting Sakura know he isn't there to take shit.

"I…" Sakura wanted to say something to him, anything to make up for all her lies, but she couldn't find the proper words.

"I will never find the words to say how much I would want you to know….everything." And the stupid phone was still ringing, which meant it was either an emergency or someone there really hated her and bad.

"What is the point in hiding now? Do it." Sasuke was aware of the fact that he was violating her privacy, but he couldn't care less.

After all, he was certain she did the very same thing. "Don't delude yourself into thinking I don't know you roamed through my stuff and my documents as well."

Sakura knew she had no choice in the matter. Her boss was not going to overlook the situation and his dark demeanor was scaring her.

It was one thing to be in the presence of a drugged Sasuke who didn't have much control over his actions to begin with, but it was another story to be in his presence when he was sane and awake, because the black eyed man knew exactly how to control her emotional state and make her torture herself to the point where she wanted to sing like a canary then go die.

Sasuke was able to see hesitance into her attitude and decided to make himself understood once and for all. If he ignored her deceiving until then, was not because he was stupid or naïve, but because he did it on his own accord. "Not….any…longer"

/Listen to her heart, not her words/

"You shut up." Sasuke put his index finger under his maid`s small chin, pulling her head closer to him, forcing her to look straight into his eyes and not bow her head and hide from him.

He was slightly troubled by the feel of her so close and her succulent looking pink lips and he could even smell her glitter lip gloss and perfume, slightly clouding his attention.

He was mentally slapping himself for his idiocy. There he was in front of a woman that was most likely hiding something big from him and maybe trying to harm him, and he was thinking about how he was so close in kissing her and feel her supple lips in between his own.

The taste of wild cherries and strawberries was still present on the tip of his tongue and god damn it if he didn't want to take that phone, answer the call and curs the unknown person to hell and back for interrupting his moment.

And he knew the pink haired funny looking maid was thinking the same as him, it was just obvious from the way her body was unconsciously trying to get closer to his own. "We are both morons…you and I."

Gently but firmly, Sasuke slipped a hand on her pocket, grabbing the offending still ringing object and attempted to pull it out and solve the riddle once and for all, when a warm sweaty small hand took a hold of left his wrist and stopped him.

Sasuke thought he was hallucinating, because out of her own accord, Sakura was touching his small moon with the tip of her fingers, sending an electric shock down his spine, making him wince for a second, his eyes going wide. "What the fuck…"

And he knew she felt it too, because her jade eyes went even wider in wonder and she tightened her hold on him, almost like she wanted to confirm that what she was feeling was not anxiety or panic.

And it had nothing to do with the fact that he wanted to solve the problem once and for all and reveal the identity of the caller.

Sakura couldn't explain what she was feeling, because it was definitely something she wouldn't find in any psychological magazine or even in the dictionary.

But the Sound agent could have sworn she was hit by a spring gentle breeze, in a sunny day, with an infusion of a floral and sandalwood fragrance engulfing her senses, pure rapture washing through her system, engulfing her in a wave of extreme bliss.

It was the most powerful sensation she ever had and she didn't want it to ever end. She closed her eyes tightly, almost like wanting to see with her mind`s eyes and preserve the feeling. What was happening?

Out of her own accord, she gripped Sasuke`s wrist even tighter, realizing the contact was the one responsible for the unexplainable sensation, but she couldn't think straight in that moment to realize why was that happening.

The only reflection she had was the feel of her boss on her own body. Sakura couldn't explain why, but she was able to feel all of him in that moment, his thoughts, his struggle, his hotness and it was absolutely orgasmic.

In his mind, Sasuke was just as affected as her. What was that? Because he sure as hell had no feeling that even began to compare with what he was feeling in that moment. "Are you kidding me?"

The raven haired Uchiha felt like the marble floor flew under his feet and he was walking barefooted in the fresh morning grass, letting small crystal icy drops of dew massage the back of his feet. He couldn't remember a moment when he felt so calm and peaceful like then, all the negative thoughts magically disappeared from his mind.

/Let her teach you…let her chase away your demons/

His all senses went on fire and his body was engulfed in a sumptuous fusion of secret needs and forgotten memories of colors and energy.

The woman he was silently accusing of meaning him harm was making him lose his mind with a simple touch of her thing fingers, burning him, trapping him in her own spell.

Sasuke couldn't help himself and let his eyelids down, closing his jet black sapphire eyes and expanded his range of feeling, letting his sensitivity take control and feel the woman in front of him through his every fiber and damn wasn't it absolutely addictive.

He vaguely observed Sakura has done the same, having her own eyes shut tight, her eyelids trembling slightly from the pressure and expectation.

Life was an interesting thing, the Uchiha couldn't help but realize in awe. There he was, in front of a girl that was probably waiting for a moment to stab him in the back, both feeling the sparkling chemistry between them like the purest diamond, intoxicating their minds.

And the raven haired man found out it was impossibly for him to remove his finger from her chin, afraid to lose contact with her.

He couldn't stop but open up his fisted fingers and let his fingertips brush her silky skin, tracing her jaw line with his fingers, and gently let his palm rest on her rose red small cheek, like discovering her for the very first time.

Sakura was having troubles standing on her feet. She couldn't even hear the annoying ring coming from her phone any longer and she couldn't find it in her to care.

She was living her own fantasy right there and then. Never in her life has the pink haired agent felt like she has discovered eternity in the embrace of the most dangerous man alive.

In a moment of sparkling genius, Sakura found the name of the feeling she had: synesthesia…The mixture of emotions and sensations, where one was able to mix the five known senses and create a sixth one, with the power of her conscience.

She could basically taste the sweetness of his boss` feather like touch on her tongue, like drinking the most sugary honey and the feel of him being so close and affectionate, in the most delicious way possible.

And she figured out that it was Sasuke the one that was causing all of that, using his own abilities, but a quick glance at his shut eyes told her he was doing it without even being aware of what he was causing. He looked equally thrown off by what was going on there, but he didn't seem too bothered by that.

And when his long lean fingers held her face dearly, like being afraid to touch her, without her disappear right in front of his eyes, living a Fata Morgana in the hot desert, she thought her heart was going to jump of her chest.

She involuntarily tightened her grip on his hand, almost like wanting to confirm he was indeed there holding her. She was not hypnotized by her boss and she was not aroused by him. She was absolutely drunk. Drunk of him and the striking aura he was emitting.

How was it even possible for a man that was able to drop venom out of his mouth like the most poisonous snake to make one feel like drowning in the fountain of youth, forever trapped in the world of eternal love and beauty, was beyond Sakura`s understanding, but it was absolutely magical and gravity defying.

/Kiss her now. Taste her and become addicted/

Sasuke let his thumb trace the contour of his maid`s full heart shaped lower lip lazily, like wanting to draw imaginary lines on the fine outline, enjoying the delicacy and the softness of the texture, her skin feeling amazing under his fingertips.

He knew exactly what was happening to him. It was the drug's effect acting like a trigger for his most secluded feelings.

The Uchiha knew that the effects were not going to ever end. The nightmares returned to him in the last week and the inability to find sleep made him drown in files and paperwork at his company.

But he knew how to control them and not hurt the ones around him. He realized the woman in front of him was the one to cause such reactions from him.

The onyx eyed heir let his thumb follow the outline of Sakura`s perfectly shaped mouth, giving her upper lip the same attention, caressing the velvety skin gently, then letting his finger slip under her rosy lip, tracing her white pearl teeth, expertly submerging the young woman into his expert touches, making her open her mouth even more, giving him more access.

Sasuke vaguely heard the annoying phone ring tone going silent, but that was going to be ignored…for the moment.

The feel of the woman that was mimicking his fondle on her lips, stroking the back of his hand with her warm fingers, drawing lazy circles and rubbing the sensitive skin around his small birth mark, teasing him, was absolutely magical.

And he couldn't possibly more aroused by that woman then he was in that particular moment, the constricting feeling of his hardened member in his tight leather pants was almost making him want to pull her on the big sofa and take her right there and then, giving both of them what they secretly wanted.

He felt the apex of his lean finger moisten with the pink maid`s saliva, tempting him to replace his thumb with his tongue and explore further.

He died at the thought of how wet and warm she should be in her most sacred places and how would she mold her soft body around his own throbbing shaft, the very idea of his sinful touches blemishing her purity and pulling her to the dark side and teach her another meaning of the word sensual, making him go impossibly hard.

He was aware of her inexperienced state, her body betraying her and that made him feel proud. He wasn't dealing with virgins because it was the opposite of his needs and ideas of no strings attached, but he was having no problems in teaching this girl some tips.

Sakura was internally busy tying her common sense with a very tight rope and pulling it to her, but the damn mental health looked ready to take the first flight to La La Land.

Her traitorous inner self was staying in a corner laughing at her and waiving the much needed soundness of judgment goodbye.

"Don't…don't let him cloud your judgment, fight him now! Pull his hand away from the phone and do something girl!"

Sakura felt like a drunk person trying to find his way home, but not able to even see the streets clearly, roaming through the darkness, without a lantern. Her intoxicating boss was playing with her lips and it was the most amazing thing ever.

She attempted to open her emerald eyes, hoping she would be able to take back what was left from her sanity and pull herself together, but that proved to be an idiotic thing to do because when she did so, she was welcomed with the breathtaking sight of her gorgeous raven haired boss, standing impossibly close to her, having his own alluring dark eyes shut, his face serene.

The Sound agent wanted to scream Hallelujah at the sight of the strong lines of his beautiful face and masculine traits, looking more angelic then ever. He had the spirit of a demon, trapped in the body of an angel.

The way he looked like he was on ecstasy, without a frown or a brooding, made him look so much like his iconic mother, having a striking resemblance with the gorgeous looking woman.

He was for the lack of better words undeniably beautiful and Sakura was even more attracted to him upon seeing that he was able to let out some of his very well hidden emotions.

Naruto told her that at some point in his life, Sasuke was a normal person, who was not afraid to express more than hate and tease and the Sound agent asked herself if she was one of the people to make him feel more…give him more.

It was alluring, both the feel of his touch and his handsome figure.

Out of her own accord, Sakura let the tip of her tongue brush his finger, when he was stroking the inside of her lower lip, having an idea of how sweet was his pale perfect skin, wanting nothing more than to close that short distance and kiss him for real. Just how many chances to kiss did they have without doing it already?

But she knew she had to stop and get out of the situation as fast as possible, because she was afraid that with the newfound chemistry between the two of them, things were going to end in a way it should not be.

And she was so turned on, it was almost painful to bear the soggy feel in between her legs, damping her lace panties with sticky fluid, being almost tempted to take his hand from her pocket out and slip it inside her lingerie and let his expert digits work magic on her lower lips, the very feel of him touching her in the most private parts was sending delicious tremors down her spine.

Karin and Anko advised her to get a better understanding of herself and explore the wonders of being a woman and Sakura was tempted to let her body speak for herself, allured by the handsome man in front of her and his ministrations and experience the result of blending both the physical and emotional sensations Sasuke was flaming inside of her.

The pink haired girl was on the verge of pushing him to the sofa behind him, climb him and give in to the irresistible temptation.

She couldn't even start to picture his hard sultry body rocking on her, inside her, everywhere and turn the puddle of burning magma from the pit of her lower abdomen into an explosion of burning pleasure, making her tremble in bliss, like he did back then, in his room.

Sakura felt the unbearable urge to feel him on her skin and let the mysterious devious young heir touch her and cover her body in his velvety touches, igniting the fire inside her and make her melt into him.

She was on the verge of taking his long finger, that was busy pleasuring her lips, into her mouth and have a taste of his appetizing skin, liking and sucking his digit, tasting the probably delicious flavor on her tongue, and the fact that she barely touched it with the tip of her tongue was not helping her case.

In her mind, Sakura was picturing herself doing it, being aware it was outrageous and weird, but she wanted to feel something tangible of him, the need for him growing with each second passing.

She realized she wanted him on both spiritual and physical levels, the amount of emotions her boss being able to awaken into her heart was amazing.

It was the most amazing feeling ever, to desire someone with such ardor and he was an amazing man, no matter what his past was and how many unfortunate things has he done.

The jaded eyed girl felt her boss let his palm slide to the back of her head, massaging the tensed muscles on her neck, forcing her let out a soft moan when the tension left her body, making her more relaxed and tilt her head slightly on her left side, bending his own head, leaning in at the perfect angle, ready to cover her soft lips with his own moist ones, in the much expected kiss.

Sakura felt her all muscles tremble in anticipation, wanting to scream at the slow peace Sasuke was deliberately moving, almost like wanting to tease her more.

The arrogant bastard knew exactly what she felt and that was why he was not rushing things, letting their noses touch and rub to each other, amplifying the tingling sensation on her face and stomach and forcing the redness on her face go down her neck as well. She was hot, she was sweaty and she was bothered.

"Still not answering, Sakura?" Sasuke whispered the words on her lips, in a low arousing smooth voice, the level of sexuality sending delectable vibrations down her body, resting in the pits of her stomach, making her queasy.

The said pink haired woman was afraid that if she talked to him, she will brush his lips in the process and somehow, she wanted him to make the first step, because she has never been kissed before and she was certain her lack of experience was going to ruin the moment.

But she did one mistake all right, because the moment the phone rung once more, she let go of Sasuke`s wrist and attempted to catch him out of guard and take the phone out of his hand, but she forgot who was she talking about.

Sasuke Uchiha was not the man one would catch out of guard, not even when he was in a difficult situation.

She should have remembered the way he saved her life in the club, by shooting that assassin when being drugged and drunk. And in that particular moment he was nothing like that.

Her body jumped in surprise, when Sasuke tightened his grip on the device, and as soon as she let go on his wrist, he removed his hand from her pocket, holding the ringing cell phone in between them, eyes not once leaving hers, the moment absolutely ruined for the second time that night.

When he was not able to feel his maid playing with his moon symbol from his hand, Sasuke acted on pure instinct, upon sensing what she was about to do, and out of reflex he prevented her from grabbing the small object and push him away. Not a chance.

And when he took a glimpse on the said offending device, his dark orbs went wide upon realizing it was not the pink phone he gave her, but a completely black big smart phone, looking customized, weird an expensive as hell. Ok, he wasn't expecting this, but what was there left to surprise him more?

He managed to pull himself together, God only knew how, and act like the gentleman he was.

Although the device was still ringing, he didn't check the ID of the caller. He realized it would have been a childish thing to do and he had no right in questioning her about who was she talking to.

He was holding the phone in between them, fixing Sakura with a heated stare, raising his eyebrow and urging her to do something. The woman in front of him looked like she has just run the marathon and crossed the Atlantic Ocean, sinking at the middle of the race.

Well…Titanic hasn't managed to cross it either, which proved both the ship and the pink haired maid were soaked, shaking and sinking.

Sakura could not take her shining eyes from Sasuke`s jet Beryl ones, fascinated by the silver hue around his irises and the way they seemed to burn with emotion. She realized in stupor he has not done what everyone would have in his place, meaning to check for the caller.

For some twisted reason, he was silently telling her he decided to trust her once again. Why?

Was he expecting her to tell him everything, on her own accord or he simply didn't care? She was so confused and her body felt weak all of sudden, losing the adrenaline rush from before.

She was aware of the fact that the latest events and her worry for Sasuke made her lose sleep and take fewer meals. She was certain she even lost some weight in the process, because she was always dizzy whenever she stood up abruptly.

"I…" Any explanation he was about to give froze in her throat upon taking a peek at who has called her. "Papa Oro…oh dear Lord, no, not now!"

Sakura wanted to turn around and run from the house, not stopping until she reached the airport and take the first flight to the Jungle. If she was to be lucky, some Anaconda snake or a really hungry lion would be so kind to eat her and put and end to her misery.

"This…does not look like pink to me." Sakura`s head shot up and almost pulled a muscle of her neck in the process, her eyes darting in all directions not able to look into those raven dark penetrating eyes of Sasuke`s.

What should she say then? That she has bought it on a whim, with the money he has given her? A poor woman would not go and spend her savings on such things.

A tiny voice in the back of her mind, that sounded painfully alike her troubled conscience was whispering at her to tell him the truth once and for all and be done with all the lies.

If Sasuke really felt some sort of connection between them, he was going to understand and not judge her. Maybe on an idyllic scenario, he would even accept her and her secret past.

But she couldn't do it. Her mission always came first, that was what she has been taught and she would not falter, no matter how much it pained her heart to see the accusing staring her boss had and his disappointment in her.

She knew exactly that the raven haired Uchiha found it difficult to approach people and he couldn't even trust his own relatives, so she was just like his father from this point of view.

Another person to deceive him and show him how right he was in acting indifferent towards everyone and treat them like trash. "I deserve it…his hate…"

"Out of words?"

"I…it…this…is a…gift." The pink haired agent wanted to slap her head with something hard, preferably a baseball bat, for what she has told him.

It was obviously a blatant lie because she was supposed to not have any relative or know anyone in Japan.

She quickly named all the possibilities in her head: winning it to some contest at the local mall, some old neighbor showing her gratitude for helping her carry the grocery bags…not a chance, because no one would have given her a freaking phone and call her ever after.

"A gift? From who?"

In a moment of desperation, Sakura did the most unfortunate thing ever, it being even worse than serving him a lie not even his grandmother was going to believe and had the "pleasure" in seeing Sasuke`s eyebrows shot up in disbelief, when he heard her answer.

"I…I am having a boyfriend. He gave it to me."

"…."

"Her what?!" And the raven haired Uchiha let out a humorless sinister laugh, not able to contain himself.

He also took a step back and looked at the still blinking screen, reading the ID of the unknown man. "Papa Oro? The fuck? Are they already on pet names basis? Is he a gigolo or something?"

From all the answers Sakura could have served him, that was definitely a good one. He wasn't expecting her to tell him she was seeing someone, especially when she has been living in Japan for two weeks.

And who would want a woman that looked like his maid? Seriously, were the people nowadays blind or in desperate need for a good fuck?

But he couldn't help the feeling of possessiveness at the thought of someone else being close to he woman in front of him.

She was concealing her identity and it was crystal clear that she was not an ugly woman, and the thought of someone else there seeing her hidden inner just like the raven heir did, was making him furious.

"Don't listen to her words, listen to her heart…" Those words were ringing into Sasuke`s conscience, but he hasn't realized at that time what they truly meant. So Sakura was having another man in her life? Then she was not that innocent as she let the others think.

Not only that, but they were calling each other on such late hours and giving each other presents. Then why was his maid not backing away from his touches like one should have when having someone else? Sasuke never had a real relationship, but he was certain that meant cheating.

Although…he was not bothered by the fact that he was the third wheel. What didn't sit right with them was the idea of sharing Sakura with someone else.

No, he viewed no one as a real competition, for he was certain no matter who his maid was seeing, if she was indeed seeing someone else, was inferior to him in any way.

And it was blatantly obvious Sakura was feeling attracted to him, reacting to every touch or caress, so maybe she was aware of the fact that they couldn't have any sort of relationship, so she was trying to shove him away from her mind and life.

Before he could help himself, Sasuke let his mouth formulate the question that was nagging his brain.

"Who is he?" The dark eyed Uchiha was basically spiting the words in disgust, her attitude losing the sensuality from before, getting ice cold, his tone accusing and his stare hard and stoic.

"Why should I tell you Sir? It is not like we are in any sort of relationship…" Sakura couldn't help but feel like shit.

She wanted so much to tell him it was a lie she had to tell for the sake of everyone and the fact that she was not able to do so was making her heart constrict.

She felt burning tears threaten to fall and she removed her deep green agate eyes from him, fixing a spot behind her left shoulder, not able to maintain the eye contact. Sakura was afraid he was going to see right through her, but secretly she so wanted him to do so. "For once Sasuke…please don't pretend to believe me…"

Upon hearing what his maid was telling him, Sasuke really thought he was going to slap the phone in his hand to the hard surface of the floor.

Of course, she was right and he knew it all to well. She was just his maid, nothing more and nothing less, that was the only thing that connected them.

But he could not pretend he didn't care anymore and the moment they have just shared was something he couldn't ignore and he was sure she couldn't ignore it either. And the fact that she turned her head and looked like she was about to cry was making his heart wince.

In all honesty, he couldn't care less if she was seeing another man, as if it would have been the first time for the raven haired Uchiha to have someone else`s woman. The amount of married or engaged women he had in his bed was rivaling Don Juan`s agenda.

But Sakura was not just another woman to use for his pleasure and he found himself forced to respect her and her decision, even though he was a breath away to steal a kiss from her, without the said maid trying to stop him.

Sasuke wanted to laugh when realization hit him. The reason why they couldn't have a kiss was because they were not free to do so. Life was getting in their way all the times.

/For you to have her, she has to be only yours/

True. The voice inside his head was definitely wise. As long as lies and secrets were staying between them, they were not going to give in to one another.

For the first time in his life, Sasuke realized that he had to fight to have everything in his life, because he was not entitled to get any thing he cast his eyes on.

The Uchiha heir threw the phone at his stunned maid, watching her clumsily catching the device, looking like she wanted to bury it or drop it. Wasn't one supposed to be happy when love was calling?

Another idea hit Sasuke`s brain at the moment. There was no way in hell she could have found a boyfriend looking like a beggar, in such a short amount of time to be so close to her, without an ulterior motive and Sakura was too smart to be fooled.

He knew Itachi and Naruto knew her beforehand, so the very idea of her dating one of them was not sounding so science fiction all of sudden and that angered him even more.

What if Sakura was seeing for instance Naruto and he came to visit her that day, the raven haired heir interrupting an intimate moment back then in the kitchen?

That changed the rules of the game completely. If Sakura was seeing his brother Sasuke was certain he was going to murder the two of them, no comment, with the very sword he used to decapitate those people, because he couldn't stand another betrayal coming from Itachi. And his blonde idiot friend seeing his maid was another more probable option.

He recalled the way Naruto spoke about Sakura as if he was describing a precious work of art, but Sasuke thought his friend was just laughing at him. What if he wasn't? He was dead serious when he admitted he found his maid to be beautiful and charming, so there was a possibility for them to be together.

"Really now? If you are so committed to him…why would you almost let me kiss you?"

"Who said I was not going to stop you?"

"The way you were trembling in anticipation when I almost did it."

Sasuke turned his back abruptly on his maid, took his black helmet from the sofa where he threw it when he got home, as well as his leather wallet from the coffee table and headed upstairs. He needed to calm the hell down or he was going to do some more murder.

As soon as Sasuke left the living room, Sakura threw her tired body on the sofa, burying her head on a small pillow, letting out a scream of agony.

She couldn't believe how stupid she was. She felt like crying and going after Sasuke explaining him she couldn't tell him why, but she was not able to look at another man beside him.

She watched at the screen seeing that she had 30 missed calls from Orochimaru. She wanted to talk to her Papa so much, but she couldn't have hated him more than she did in that very particular moment for ruining her chances of kissing her boss.

She dragged her body upstairs in her room and pulled her laptop out of her bag, opening it and attempted to load the internet. It worked.

So Orochimaru was trying to contact her and let her know they could talk. She clicked on the DIAL key and waited. Damn stupid internet connection ruined her life.

"Cherry? Finally, I was just two calls away to put my pride aside and call one of the Akatsuki members in Tokyo and ask them about you."

Orochimaru was dead worried for his precious student. After everything that happened, nothing would have surprised him further. And the fact that they didn't manage to find out who stole the secret documents was taking a toll on him.

"Papa Oro…my God you couldn't have found a worse moment to call me!" Sakura was lying on her back, looking at the laptop screen upside down, like a baby.

"Seriously? Did I interrupt something important?"

"YESSS! You called me just when I was talking to Sasuke and I had to lie to him and tell I am seeing someone for him to not become suspicious on me." Sakura was tomato red, not even able to face the image of her sensei.

Orochimaru snorted loudly at that, visibly amused by the cute pouting on Sakura`s face. He really found her absolutely adorable when angry. "Well, I know you are on a mission Cherry, but Papa understands you are a grown up woman now and you have your needs…"

"Stop right there, Oro! Just don't start talking like Karin and your crazy wife, I had enough of heir mockery already!"

If there was something Sakura really appreciated at Orochimaru was the fact that he knew when to be discreet and not invade the other`s privacy, unlike some people with red hair she knew.

"Ok ok, I am sorry. I couldn't resist, you are too adorable sometimes. Well, I am sure you know the reason I called you and I am pretty sure you wanted to contact me as well."

The Otokage leaned further in his chair, resting his back on the comfortable surface, dead tired. He and Tsunade didn't have more than 20 hours of sleep…in the last week. He was barely keeping his amber eyes open.

"Papa Oro, I don't even know where to start from." Sakura massaged her temple with her fingers, her emerald eyes shut. Damn that throbbing headache. "I am sure you are aware of the fact that Sasuke has been drugged, aren't you?"

"Yes, Tsunade has informed me of this. And before you ask, I must let you know I am well aware of the club incident and Amy Watanabe`s death."

"What you don't know Papa, is the fact that Sasuke Uchiha, my stupid arrogant boss is not only having the same symptoms Tsunade shishou described when I called her, regarding your super ultra secret project which you have to tell me everything about, but he is having freaking paranormal powers and the LSD seemed to be the trigger of it."

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow at that, not quite impressed. "Paranormal powers? You mean extrasensory perception?"

"Yes that one!"

"What are you talking about Cherry, I am sure everyone would have found out if the young Uchiha was able to communicate with the dead ones or levitate."

Sakura rolled on the bad, landing on her tummy, facing her paternal figure. Was he accusing her of imagining things? "Oro, I am almost certain Sasuke is able to manipulate electricity or electromagnetism around him and I swear I am not lying."

"He is able to what?" The Otokage was sure half of his mind was slowly drifting to sleep.

He was in his office, not able to stand on his feet or take more of those stupid white walls from the secret lab, so he went upstairs to steal some minutes of sleep, while Tsunade was cursing and punching things in anger, sorting files.

Of course he wanted to find out about the raven haired Uchiha and his symptoms, after his conversation with Tsunade, but he was doing his best to act disinterested in front of his daughter, to not let her be unnecessary worried.

"Remember when I called you and told you Sasuke is having a very powerful electromagnetic field surrounding his office?" the Sound leader nodded once, urging her to continue.

"I got the results from Shino and you are not going to believe it, but he told me they matched the frequency from the Shiseido Ginza incident, but beat our suspect`s intensity. Shino believes that it was the one to jam our devices and it is the very same field surrounding the Mangekyou HQ in that very moment.

Also, he told me there is no other device to emit such electromagnetism on the Earth, the only one coming close to it being at CERN, but is experimental.

Also, when I was in the office alone with him, I realized my boss is nullifying the powerful electromagnetism to protect the ones around him from the harmful effect!"

Orochimaru had an unreadable expression on his face. From Sakura`s point of view, he was sleeping with his eyes opened. "So what you are trying to tell me is that you think LSD has caused your boss to act like one of the Power Puff Girls?"

"To put it simply yes. But those animated characters are way cuter…that bastard is not cute, he is freaking sexy as hell…"

Orochimaru rubbed his blood shot tired eyes with his palms. "Cherry…I am sure you must have misunderstood something, because I find this hard to believe.

Tsunade told you about those four people we used as test subjects, but there is more to that story than this. Some isolated symptoms are not enough to go as far as to declare him a psychic."

"I know Oro and this is precisely why I wanted to hear your opinion. I don't know what to believe anymore and I know I might overreact, but I cannot ignore some facts. Sasuke is not a normal man and everything he does is out of ordinary.

Papa I must tell you something. Has shishou told you about his wall drawings as well?"

Orochimaru nodded once. Yes, he knew what Sakura was talking about. "You mean those weird formulas and questionable Greek words?"

"Those were complicated formulas and hieroglyphs Papa, can you believe it?! Who in the world takes LSD and turns into a freaking Jean-François Champollion all of sudden?"

Sakura was doing her best not to raise her tone more, because her boss was in the other room, probably being able to hear her. She vaguely heard the shower running.

"LSD is a very powerful substance, with many possible consequences, so we cannot be sure how one will react to this, Cherry." In his mind, Orochimaru was putting two and two together, digging in the information Sakura was telling him. The four subject tests and Uchiha Sasuke…

"I know, I have studied the effects intently for the past week and this is not normal. What is worse is that I found out that Sasuke`s past has to deal with some very bad experiences, including drugs and someone knows about this because they barged into his house, fooling me and covering everything in fresh paint and stole some of his things.

Papa Oro, those people knew exactly what to do and what to replace, because they were probably spying on Sasuke!"

Orochimaru furrowed his eyebrows at that. He didn't like how that sounded. "How were they able to spy on you if you have your devices and cameras installed in the house?"

"Because of that stupid electromagnetic field from Sasuke`s office! No fucking camera or microphone works in there as long as my boss is not around to drop the levels, this is why I tell you he has some hidden powers, because they managed to do it while he was in the office.

And when I asked him about who has visited that haunted room recently, he told me that besides him, there were me, Uzumaki and his father. And the bastard is suspecting the three of us for wanting to rob him and harm him!"

"It doesn't look too good. My dear, you do realize those people might be Lorane, don't you? Besides, they managed to kill another influential heir, Amy Watanabe and the events might be more than linked."

Sakura stood on her knees, because she was yawning constantly, wanting nothing more than let her head hit the pillow and enter a semi comatose state.

" I know, but I assure you I am keeping a close eye on him. Besides, Sasuke looks aware of someone wanting to kill his ass, because he is always on guard. And his judgment and intelligence rivals your own Papa. I feel stupid compared to him."

"I am glad to hear he is on guard as well, but don't let him discover you."

The Sound agent was tired, sad and troubled, but she couldn't help the feeling of her Papa being too relaxed over the situation.

Of course, the Otokage was always calm and collected, analyzing things and not rushing to conclusions, but it was weird. Like he was hiding something from her.

"Cherry, what Tsunade has told you about the four people having similar behavior as the young Uchiha heir, were all part of a bigger project we called the AURA project and it had to do with the effects of the LSD on people born with innate extrasensory perception, their skills manifesting when they ingested the psychedelic substance.

I will not get into all the details, because that would take me hours and you do not need to know at this point, but I feel the need to let you know someone has bugged CIA`s network, blocking the internet access to enter our base and steal all the documents relating the project we are talking about.

The only files they didn't get their hands on are the ones Tsunade took home to study further."

Sakura`s mouth hit the floor upon hearing that. "What? They robbed you from all the people, are you serious Papa? Omg this is no coincidence, so Lorane is already making their move!"

The Sound agent got off the bad, starching her back, thinking hard. "It they managed to get so close to us means they can harm us when they feel like, which is awful! We are all in danger!"

"That might be right my dear Blossom, but don't be so negative. If they could have eliminated us so easily, I assure you they would have done so."

"But what does Lorane want your research for? Are they all LSD addicts or something?"

"Probably not. The reason remains a mystery to us as well. We are trying to relate everything to what Jirayia has told us about the Freemasonry and reach a conclusion.

Also, Tsunade and I are trying to track the ones that stole from us and prevent the research to be made known. If someone finds out what was CIA secretly doing, people will lose faith in us."

"And Lorane is going to take the chance to make us lose credibility and eliminate us from the inside!" Realization hit the pink haired agent full force.

The thought of Lorane being interested in such secret experiments and being in the possession of files that could destroy the Sound and the entire CIA organization was mind numbing.

CIA was the most efficient way of dealing with the criminality all over the world, so if the organization disappears so does the global security. And the look on her mentor's worn out face confirmed her fears. She fisted her hands in her messy hair.

"Does Akatsuki know about the robbery?"

"No. Like I told you, this project is top secret and I would like to remind you not to let a word out about this. We are dealing with the problem, but we cannot afford to involve other people."

"What is so special and terrifying about the AURA project anyways? Why is it top secret?"

"Because we used human experiments, which was illegal, as well as CIA used them as their agents. Their bodies might be the key to understand immortality…in a way."

"What the fuck?" The rosette couldn't help but relate everything she heard of, with Sasuke. Immortality?

Was her protector working too much or he and the Sound members decided to test drugs and get high all of sudden? From paranormal activity to immortality…what a show. Sakura was going to be nuts at the end of the mission.

"Heh…and here I thought I only had to guard someone. Now I have to be a ghost hunter as well. CIA doesn't pay me enough for this."

"This is why I told you not to bother with that and focus your energy into not letting Lorane get close to the Uchiha heir. Have you read the economy and business magazines?"

"You know my passion is fashion Papa. Those things related to business are boring me to no end."

"That is too bad, because you would have a general idea of what exactly is Lorane trying to accomplish."

Sakura got curious at that. The only reason she opened up such magazines was to ogle at the handsome rich men, not read the content. Hell even Sasuke was hating all that had to do with business, and he was a company heir. "What do you mean?"

"The statistics are no good. Not only the biggest heirs are murdered all over the world, but some smaller companies that depended on them are closing and people are losing their jobs.

If this goes on, I am afraid we are going to face another economic crisis, sooner than you could imagine."

Sakura was no specialist in the field, but what Orochimaru was telling her didn't sound too good. If they managed to somehow pull off such a scheme, then murdering Sasuke would have been in vain.

"Papa, if they mange to destabilize the world`s economy and take over, it would be chaos. This sounds like a well planned world domination scenario to me."

The Otokage crossed his hand over his dark brown hair, brushing away some strands that feel on his eyes. He was glad his self proclaimed daughter Sakura was a smart woman and caught his meaning.

He couldn't imagine dealing with imbecile people like Akatsuki. That Uzumaki kid and Inuzuka Kiba were pure idiots. Well…so was Hidan, but he was rather weird than stupid. Or both.

"And I am afraid you are not far from the truth my dear. This is what I have in mind for some time. The safest way for the Freemasonry to come from the shadows and take over the world is to successfully control all the economy fields. And as you know, they are already doing it."

"I think I can get an idea. Now that you mentioned it, Sasuke the imbecile is always complaining of something about maintaining his stocks` to its original value on the auction market. But from what I have seen, he managed to do so until now…and he sacrifices his hours of sleeping for this…"

"Your boss is skilled. To come as the second most successful business man at this age and in this context is pretty amazing if you were to ask me."

"Skilled? Pfff I talked a bit to the Uzumaki kid and he told me things about his past. He is a freaking genius…well an evil one I would say…but still genius."

Orochimaru eyed his pager which started beeping which meant there was an emergency or one of the agents was having troubles. "Give me a freaking break, all I ask for is an hour of sleep…" The Otokage of the Sound wanted to talk more to Sakura and complain about his crazy pregnant wife and her stupid painting that she was worshipping, but he was running out of time.

"Cherry, I got to go. Duty calling. Keep me updated with everything. I will call you later to check on you. I sent you a motorcycle like you asked me. A CIA agent is going to contact you for details, more likely by tomorrow morning."

Sakura was sad she couldn't talk to her Papa more. She was really troubled after her conversation with Sasuke and the idea of her boss not getting closer to her because he thought she was already in a relationship was killing her slowly. She really needed him more than ever. But she knew he had stuff to do as their Leader.

"I wish we could talk more…I miss you Papa Oro…so much…" She let her head down, not wanting Orochimaru to see her unshed tears.

Not that she was able to hide a thing from him anyways. Just like her boss, the Sound leader was reading her like an open book, from the moment they met.

Orochimaru`s heart clenched when he saw his precious Cherry Blossom in the verge of crying. He wanted nothing more than to call her back and send someone else to guard on the Uchiha heir. But he knew it was not possible.

"I know Cherry and I miss you just as much. Remember, I am here for you no matter what, and Anko and Tsunade as well. Even that excentric friend of yours, Karin.

You are not alone in this." He gave her a small encouraging smile. He knew that standing beside a man like the young Uchiha was hard, but there was no other choice.

"Keep your guard up dear and remember to pay attention. This world is shaking. Lorane is gaining power."

"I know Papa…I know." And the pink haired agent closed her laptop, letting tears finally slip from her glistening jaded eyes, not able to contain them any longer.

She was tired as hell, both mentally and physically and she was certain that no matter how many hours of sleeping she would get, she was not going to be better.

And her sobs were getting more powerful as the time passed. She felt so lonely and abandoned all of sudden and it was all because of her. She was the one keeping Sasuke away from herself and he has just acted accordingly.

She was lying in a fetal position in the bed, with her knees bent on her chest, resting her head on her crossed arms, crying.

That was a disaster, not only was she physically attracted to Sasuke but she started to fall for him as well, which was not good. There she was in front of a possibly world decline because of the Freemasonry and all she had in mind was the onyx eyed Uchiha`s disappointed look and retreating back.

Sakura didn't bother to open up her laptop aware of the fact that she could see well because of the angry tears clouding her view, cascading over her cheeks and wetting the soft mattress of the bed, but took her damned phone and pressed the necessary keys, putting the device on her ear, waiting for the red headed woman to answer. She prayed to all the Gods she would do, because she desperately needed someone to talk to.

She did on the fifth call.

"Sakura?" Upon hearing the groggy voice of her best friend, Sakura started to sob even louder, covering her mouth with her free hand, to prevent her boss to hear her from the other room.

"…Rinnnnn." Karin has just returned from a very tiring mission in which she had to dye her red hair green and wear pierces, to blend with the gang drug dealers she had spent a week with. And the freaking cheap hair dye was not washable, which was driving the Sound seductress crazy.

But the sound of a crying Sakura made her alert in no time. In her mind, Karin was going to beat the crap out of anyone stupid enough to anger her pink haired friend. The red headed Uzumaki female loved Sakura like a sister.

"Cherry, wassup girl? Are you crying? OMG who am I going to strangle? Don't tell me is Uchiha because I am going to snap!"

The sound of her boss` name was making Sakura`s stomach clench painfully. "Kariiiiiinnnnn I screw it up big times and I don't know what to do! He is mad at me and I don't want him to not talk to me anymore!"

"Oh Heavens, what happened now?"

"Papa called me on the phone and Sasuke was there as well and he knew I don't have a phone, because that is the reason why he gave me one in the first place.

And he managed to take my phone off my pocket and I had to lie and tell him I have a boyfriend and…sob…it is a gift from him."

"…" Karin was left speechless. Just what the hell was her virgin friend doing, because the red headed thought of taking the first flight to Tokyo and solve the problem…her way. Then an idea struck her. Why not take advantage of the twisted situation?

"…Rin you there? C`mon say something just don't shut up because if you do I am going to lose my mind for real." Sakura was aware that she was crying and her voice was a bit too loud, but she didn't care. She secretly hoped Sasuke fell asleep or better died.

"Cherry I cannot believe you, you are…a freaking GENIUS!" Sakura fell of the bed. For real. And she pulled the covers with her as well. What was her friend smocking, because of course, she was insane, but that was even too much, even for her.

"What the fuck are you talking about Karin, are you pregnant or Sasuke-syndrome is spreading. Haven't you paid attention to what I was telling you?"

"Of course I was and this is why I am praising you. Thing about it Sakura. What has Anko told you?"

Sakura roamed through her memory, searching for a valuable piece of information coming from that insane woman`s mouth, regarding the previous conversation. "Something about paying attention to Sasuke`s actions and not let him play me."

"Exactly! And you did the best thing possible. Remember, men are hunters and that Uchiha is definitely one of them, which means he doesn't want a woman that would open up her legs for him whenever he breathes in her general direction.

A bitchy attitude is useful, but is not going to take you further than his bed, honey. And what you want from him is definitely not to have him inside your vagina, but your heart as well, I suppose."

"Yeah…I guess you are right…but I still don't understand how is this….little philosophy on men`s psychology is going to help my case."

Sakura would never get used to her friend`s dirty language. And the easiness in her demeanor upon speaking about such private actions was stunning her.

"Let me finish. As I was saying, men in general don't want an easy prey, with the exception of Hidan and Jirayia, but those are clinical cases and I am not going to talk about them.

The male of the species wants to fight for a woman and take much pleasure in the fact that he won her heart, you got it?"

"….somehow…"

"Good. Which means, if you told your hot boss that you are seeing someone else, you silently told him the fact that you are not available for the moment and that has probably awoken his predator instinct.

And knowing that man he is probably willing to go to Hell and back for a pussy he finds worth." Karin secretly pitied her innocent little pink dyed friend like seriously. She missed so many things a woman was enjoying, that was driving her nuts.

Sure, her emerald eyed CIA colleague`s pureness was attracting many stares and the fact that she has managed to keep her soul untainted was admirable in the modern society, but she should seriously need to give in to the temptations from time to time.

"So you are telling me that Sasuke freaking Uchiha is going to fight a man that is not real, not even in my brain and win the ugliest poorest dirtiest looking maid of his heart? Karin are you sure you haven't forgotten your brain in some hairstyle salon?"

"As much as I would like to agree with you, no, my brain is fine, thank you very much. Now back to our point, yes.

This is exactly what he is going to do. I don't know if you remember but there was an old article from a gossip magazine two years ago involving Sasuke and that very rich ballerina from Switzerland."

Sakura furrowed her delicate eyebrows in concentration. At least the tears stopped for a moment. Karin had a way of talking to people similar to Naruto`s that had a calming effect on her audience. "I don't remember."

"Well it was quite the scandal if you ask me. The story went something along the lines of your boss meeting this gorgeous talented blonde ballerina, during a spectacle in Vienna.

They talked to each other to the after party and someone saw the two of them leaving to a hotel, spending the night.

The Uchiha family probably took care of the media, but from what I heard, that woman left her husband and even attempted to contact Sasuke to try a relationship.

They were spotted in some Casino in Monte Carlo, where they were probably doing it like rabbits on heat, in all available places, then Sasuke returned to Japan, alone."

Sakura knew what kind of man Sasuke was all too well, because Naruto has told her. But she had difficulties in accepting her boss destroying other`s families, just for his mere pleasure. But she understood what Karin was telling her and it made sense.

"Well that was quite the story, I admit. Although it bothers me a bit."

"What? The fact that he had many women? Don't delude yourself into thinking he is a saint Cherry, because we know just how much of a manwhore Sasuke is. But you can dream of being the last one to be by his side, forever.

I mean c`mon Cherry, that dude is what…25? Heirs like them are probably forced by their families to marry and produce heirs to inherit their stupid fortune or whatever shit those people think about. If you don't move fast, someone else will steal Sasuke from you."

Now that didn't cross Sakura`s mind. Karin was right. A man like Sasuke Uchiha had thousands of rich women, with a good background eying him and hoping to become the future Mrs. Uchiha. That was a train that was not waiting for her.

"Wait….why do you make it sound like I want a relationship with Sasuke whatsoever?"

"Pffff….please Cherry, don't even try to deny it in front of me, because I know you better than my own shoes collection."

"You don't even know all of your shoes."

"That's why I said better. Back to the point, the fact that you told him the fact that you have a boyfriend was a good move. If he wants you, let him come and get you.

Of course, you should play your part as well, meaning let him boil a little bit inside and don't give in to his charms, although I know that might be really difficult."

"Oh you have no idea…but I think you might be right."

"Of course I am right, after all, aren't I the Sound`s number one seductress? And what do you mean I have no idea?

Wait a second…Cherry you said your Papa has interrupted a moment with Sasuke. And I am willing to bet all the shoes I don't even remember on the fact that it was an intense one. Am I right?"

Sakura was blushing madly at their almost there kiss and the feelings they shared back then in the living room. How could she have explained that to her friend?

"Actually…it was much more than that. Rin I cannot even begin to understand what I was feeling, but remember when I told you Sasuke might have some sort of…hidden abilities?"

"…I don't think you told me about this Cherry. What are you talking about?"

"Never mind that then. The fact is…he…I…was able to feel…him…I mean his heart…I don't know, it is difficult to describe, but for a moment I felt a wave of intense joy and pleasure when I held his hand and I am sure he felt it as well.

Then he attempted to kiss me. Well…actually he did something even more erotic before Oro interrupted us."

"Yeah…you kinda speak Chinese but I think I got the meaning…in a way. Wait…he attempted to kiss you more than once?"

"Yes. I was eating spaghetti and I haven't realized a longer piece of pasta was hanging from my mouth, so he came closer to me, took the other hand on his mouth and engulfed all of it, until his lips came closer to mine…and the phone rang."

Karin threw her head backwards, comically, slapping her forehead with her hand. She realized she had dye remover on her palm. And now she glued all of it on her forehead. "Oh freaking hell…that shit cost me $100 dollars."

"Are you freaking me?! I swear that snake faced leader of us is such a cockblocker sometimes!

And there I was preparing myself mentally for the grand moment of you two sharing that damn kiss already. Seriously, just how many failures do you guys have, considering the fact that this is Sasuke Uchiha we are talking about?"

Sakura was just as disappointed as her friend…and bothered. God the wetness in between her legs was cold and bothersome, because it reminded her of how much she really wanted something to happen.

"I know, I honestly wanted him to do it as well, but for some twisted reason…when we try to kiss, something is happening."

"I think is fate, playing with you guys, testing your attraction for each other."

"Fate? Please Rin do not talk about that, you sound like that weirdo Hyuga and that is the last thing I need."

"God forbids, do not put me on the same sentence as that man, I detest him!"

"Ok sorry. By the way, that fiancé of his meet me last week under the false pretext of thanking me for saving their useless asses, but she ended up insulting me.

I swear I wanted to plant my foot down her mouth, mission undercover be damned! I get angry just when I hear her name."

"What? Omg I cannot believe that whore to treat you like that. But Cherry, what can you ask from that people, you know just how much of a bunch of losers are they. That cousin of mine especially. By the way, did he come to see you after all?"

"You mean Naruto? Well that was unexpected, but he was actually really honest with me and dare I say…friendly? He brought me the best Tiramisu ever and he said it was made by your aunt Kushina."

Karin was silent for a moment, thinking about her family. She was aware of the fact that the blonde idiot and his mother have treated her respectfully, even going as far as to personally come and look for her, but she couldn't.

She couldn't open up to them like Kushina wanted. The cuts were still there and they were deep. She needed time to overcome her past. Just like her jaded eyed friend.

"Well…what can I say, that woman has got skills. But dear, don't be fooled by those people, you know how deceiving they can be."

"Karin maybe you will not going to believe it, but I found myself enjoying Naruto`s company. He told me some things about Sasuke that made me realize I know nothing about him after all, and it was helpful.

I think he did it because he sensed my hesitation." Sakura knew Akatsuki were good at lying and manipulating people, but she couldn't picture the blonde Uzumaki in that role. He was just so different from them and had another vision of things.

Karin didn't like how that was going. Sakura sounded like she was befriending an Akatsuki which was unacceptable. This was not how things worked. But she wasn't going to be a total hypocrite and not give her cousin credit for his genuine intentions.

No matter how much Sound and Akatsuki hated each other, Sakura needed a friend to be close to her in Japan and if Naruto was willing to assume that role, Karin was not going to discourage her.

But she silently planned the cerulean eyed man`s funerals if he was going to just make fun of her.

"Cherry, you know how much I loathe the Akatsuki members, my blonde retarded cousin as well. But if he can make you feel slightly better and even going as far as to share some secrets as well, I am not going to tell you to shove him off.

Besides…you have an imaginary boyfriend now, isn't it?" Oh that stupid substance was getting sticky and Karin looked like an alien, emerging from a slug`s mouth. It was disgusting.

Sakura didn't like what she was hearing. Sure her boss was going to find out she doesn't have any lover in no time, she was sure of it, but she really hoped the raven haired man would put that aside and not ask anymore questions.

"Aaa….yeah. But what does he have to do with my imaginary friends?"

"Are you kidding me? What better way to make a man jealous than to let him believe you are hooked up with his best friend? And we all know Naruto is head over heels for you. Why not use that to your benefit then?"

"I cannot believe you Rin, how can you even suggest to use a honest and innocent man like Naruto like that?

Sasuke is already suspicious on us because he saw us almost embracing each other in his freaking house, and if I go and tell him we have a relationship he is going to skin us alive. I am sure he can do it no problem."

"I didn't say you tell him you are in a relationship with Naruto. I told you to let him believe you have an affair. There is a difference between stupidity and subtlety you know?"

"Yeah, but there is no difference in cheating and deceiving you know?" Sakura was never going to agree to her friend, no matter how logical and tempting that might have sounded. She saw the way her boss was eying them in the kitchen and it was anything but pleasant.

"But you are not cheating on him because as far as I am concerned you two are not having a relationship. Ok, maybe you do but you are not aware of it and that Uchiha is holding back for god only knows what reason."

The pink haired agent knew what Karin was talking about. It was absurd because she was right, they didn't have any sort of romantic relationship, but it was difficult to deny the unexplainable attraction and it was confusing. "I know, but I feel there is something going on between us, but I don't have a name for it."

"And this is why I tell you to play your cards right and sort out your feelings. Who do you expect to tell you what is going on between you and that hot ass boss of yours, Santa? It is crystal clear that he doesn't just want to do you and get over it.

He is taking his time to build the tension or some cheesy shit like this. Pay attention to what is he going to do next, now that he knows you have a boyfriend. Will he try to attract you more or will he give up?"

"Oh my God Rin, what if he indeed believed this stupid lie and he is going to ignore me from now on? I am going to pull out what is left from my hair if this happens."

"Fuck Cherry, this dude got you under his skin for real. Well if this happens you can always tell him the truth."

"What truth?"

"All of it."

"Are you nuts?! I cannot go there and tell him I am here to baby sit him from the evil Lorane, this is even worse than lying to him about meeting imaginary boyfriends of his best friend!"

In all honesty, the red headed woman was sick about her friend`s struggles because that damn CIA job. She could have cared less about Orochimaru and his stupid mission as well. If her friend had a chance to find happiness in the arms of that Uchiha heir, so be it.

"Then carry on with what you do. But remember a thing: if he is willing to fall for his poor ugly looking maid and embarrass himself and his family in the high society, then I don't think he is going to be so bothered by your secret job."

"Huh…yeah, because what I do is moral and respectable. Rin, I am fucking killing people in case you forgot?"

"Maybe. But you don't know everything about him as well." The red headed Uzumaki agent smirked at that. She got Sakura there. Honestly, in her mind, Karin was certain those people already had feelings for each other, it was just so obvious. But denial was in trend apparently.

"I am an idiot." Sakura looked at the clock. It was 2 am. Another sleepless night. She secretly wondered what was Sasuke doing. Or if he heard her. She was kinda loud when venting out.

"No, you are just a virgin, but that is not a problem. You just need a little push in the right direction…or dick, but we are going to talk about that later."

Sakura hid her head under the pillow in shame. Leave it to her demented friend to make her shy and exploit her inexperienced state. The bitch. "Karin I don't understand how your mind works…"

"Mia cara amica, my brains works out just fine. But I cannot say the same about this stupid dye remover…honestly, why is it always our hair the one to suffer after a mission?"

"Tell me about it…" The Sound agent combed her fingers through her short hair, thinking about her once long chocolate tresses in regret. She understood Karin perfectly.

"You know…bob is in fashion this spring."

"Yeah, but it only looks good with an oval face like yours honey."

"I can imagine…by the way, you would not believe who I just humiliated in the Dior shop today!" That brought the emerald eyed assassin much joy. That woman was entertaining when angry.

"Who who who? Let me guess…a famous singer, a bald actor, an overrated teen idol, a model?" Karin was in for any latest hot gossip. She and her equally crazy virgin friend were always picking on annoying people whenever they got the chance.

"You got it right Rin with the last guess. I met Ino Yamanaka at the mall and she started to badmouth me because in her opinion, I am not entitled to be there."

"…loooollllll for real? OMG Cherry this is priceless, maybe I can hack the security systems and see a recording! Wait…what is that slut doing in Tokyo anyways? Last time I checked, she was whoring herself in Indonesia, probably fucking some ancient Balinese statues."

"I have no idea. But it was funny as hell. I swear she is not only a hooker, but she is stupid as fuck as well."

"I can imagine nothing good would come out of that inexistent brain of hers."

"Well probably yes…how are you by the way? Got a difficult mission?" Sakura was afraid her best friend was going to end the call and in all honesty she didn't want to be left alone.

If she was alone, she was going to think about things that bothered her. And Sasuke was one of those things. And she didn't want to think about him because it made he cry.

Karin swore she was going to take a scissor and cut those stupid locks. That or go to a professional salon and dye those stupid green strands in something more…less weird.

" . Cherry! I had to wear the stupidest things ever and blend with some punkers that belonged to some drug traffic gang and seduce their leader."

"Sounds like shit. Was he hot at least?"

"Fuck no! He was shorter than me and his cock was smaller than my lipstick! That was one of the worst fucks in my life!"

Sakura couldn't help but laugh at her friend. She was being selfish because she knew the red headed Uzumaki was tired and probably disgusted with herself for her job, but the conversation was calming her. And she knew that Karin probably wanted to vent out as well. "Hahahaha…you…you are unbelievable you know?"

"Me? That small thing was unbelievable! By the way, I met Sasori on my way home and he says hi and asks you if you need some of his new poison to laugh at your boss."

"….is he lacking test subjects or the lab rats finally filled in a lawsuit?"

"Well he kinda tested on Hidan but you know nothing can harm that man. I swear if you chop off his head, he is still going to laugh like a demented crazy person. Sadistic weirdos."

Sakura missed all the Sound gang like crazy. Sure, they were all insane she was aware, but they had their funny moments. "You are probably right…Rin…can you please talk to me more? I know you are tired but I…"

"Don't even mention it. I will have enough time to rest in peace when I die. Besides…I have to totally tell you about my new neighbor, I swear he looks like Brad Pitt and to top it all he has the habit to mow the lawn half naked every morning and…"

Sakura had no idea when she fell asleep listening to Karin`s funny stories, but her tired body welcomed the dreamless sleep. She has been more than worn out.

Same time, unknown location

He was more than angry. He was fuming and the big hole in the door was a good proof of that. Someone has managed to delay his plan and find him out and that was unacceptable. And when his phone started to ring, he knew exactly who it was.

He grabbed the device and answered the offending machine, his voice harsh and guttural. The ruthless man was also tipsy. "WHAT!"

"You are an idiot! I remember clearly warning you to pay attention to those kids, and they managed to trick you and probably discover some clues that would finally lead them to us!" The other person talking to the other end of the call was just as furious.

"Don't you dare raise your tone at me! Besides, you are the imbecile that wasn't able to make sure those goods were going to safely be shipped to me!

Do I need to remember you it was you fucking job to make sure no one would track our guys? And what have you done instead? Solving crosswords?"

"My job? It was you who told them to delay the shipment, why are you blaming me for your incompetence? Besides, what do you need that shit for anyways, I thought you managed to steal some related documents from the CIA? Tell me they didn't discover that as well."

"How many times do I have to explain you that we need all the information, otherwise is not going to work.

And don't make fun at me, of course those imbeciles were not able to catch me. For all I know, they are still working on the virus I put in their system. The fall of the network connections gave me enough time to cover any traces."

"Thanks God. At least you didn't fail that as well. I am getting sick of your stupid mistakes. Besides, the person you send to deal with the Mangekyou problem is the worse step you could have taken. I don't trust that man at all. He is going to betray us."

"Are you that dumb or you just want to piss me off more? I basically pulled him out of his misery and saved his freaking company, he sold his soul to me and hell is what he is going to face if he betrays me."

"Huh yeah…because your plans always work. You are the one that has been tricked by a bunch of teenagers, that made a fool of you with every chance they got. You are going to drag us down and I am going to hunt you down if this happens."

"Let me enlighten you with something, my dear atheist friend. I have the feeling that is not just about them here."

"What are you talking about?"

"My guess is that there is someone else involved. CIA is not the one that killed my four henchmen and got the stuff we wanted, from them."

"Do you suggest there is another organization spying on us, having the same plans? I find this hard to believe. Besides…have you seen their corpses? Someone fucking decapitated them and disappeared without a trace. Whoever did it knew his job."

"That's right. And this is why I am afraid we have to rush things up a bit. Don't worry for that man, I can guarantee for him with my own life."

"You better be right, or else your mere life is not going to be enough to make up for the loss."

The line went dead. Things were getting complicated and he knew it. There were too many people involved and too many things to do.

But he was going to succeed. His plan was perfect, he knew it. Only…there was a little problem to be dealt with. He was going to make sure no one was going to stand in between him and the world domination next time he moved his finger.

Next morning, Japan, Narita International Airport

Sakura was…she was many things in that moment. For instance hungry. Apparently she crying half of the night was not good for her system.

And tired. Oh Heavens her feet and back was killing her. She was also hearing a constant ringing in her left ear, probably from spending too much time on the phone with Karin. But most of all, she was irritated.

Orochimaru promised she is going to have her motorcycle sent today and he was indeed a man of his words. And the Otokage was smart enough to send her a driving license for both mopeds and cars driving license, so she wouldn't repeat a club incident.

But never in her life would have she imagined her Papa had some sort of black humor to send her a freaking ancient moped, painted pink and white, that looked like Napoleon`s grandmother used it in her high school days.

Of course Sakura was not stupid and she knew all too well that a poor looking woman on a Ducati or Honda motorcycle would have attracted a lot of attention, but for Fuck`s sake, that thing looked like it was made from materials recovered from Titanic.

A CIA agent that came to investigate some deaths she was not aware of, has landed with a private jet that morning and her mentor found it convenient for the pink haired agent to meet him and have her vehicle delivered.

She looked at the man in front of her, who seemed a little amused by the situation. Either he wanted to laugh at the way she was dressed or at her angry comical face upon seeing what she was supposed to drive through the crowded streets of Tokyo. Probably both.

Of course the agent knew who she was, everyone from CIA knew Athena of the Sound, but to see the gorgeous looking young lady in those clothes was a sight to behold. The emerald eyed woman felt like punching him in the face.

"Well, this is it Miss. Haruno. Otokage-sama asked me to personally deliver you this…present. Here is your driver`s license as well."

The Sound agent took the documents from her colleague, muttering a small thank you for the effort.

"Whatever. If this prehistorically relic is still intact after traveling all the way from Italy, I suppose it is stable enough for me to drive it…this or I am going to end my CIA career in glory."

The said man let out a soft laugh, visibly entertained. Of course, all the agents had at least an undercover mission in their career so he knew at least one funny event would eventually come.

"Do you have a place to hide it?"

The pink haired girl thought about that intently. It was not like she could have hide it in Sasuke`s garage. Not that he lacked space, but she wasn't able to justify a mere phone. A vehicle belonging to her would have been even more suspicious.

"Yeah. There is a small supermarket in the neighborhood I live in and they provide free parking lots for any of their clients. I am going to leave it there, it is not like this thing is going to attract any attention."

"Good. Then I will take my leave. Got stuff to do. Good luck with your mission, Miss."

"Thanks. You too."

After the two agents parted ways, Sakura put the white helmet (at least it was not pink, she didn't want to look like an ice cream) and got on the said bike, folding the foot peg out, turning the key in the ignition.

The emerald eyed agent knew how to drive a motorcycle all too well. She, Karin and Hidan enjoyed riding to the high ways, during nighttime, making the police have a field day. Ravenna was spectacular at that time of the night and the wind blowing in their faces, combined with the high speed was giving Sakura an adrenaline rush. "Ah old good times…"

She squeezed the brake handle a few times then pushed down the kick start peg, until the engine roar to life.

To her stupor, it wasn't sounding like a lawn mower, as she was expecting it. It sounded more like an Yamaha engine, and the jaded eyed assassin couldn't contain a smirk to grace her features. "Papa Oro is not a fool."

That was a customized motorcycle, that looked like a cheap moped, but had only high tech parts, engine included. It was definitely one of Shino`s toys.

She bolted to the traffic jam of Tokyo, heading to the highway, GPS active. She was riding an ancient looking bike, that was swiftly flying in between the many cars. "Nice…"

8 am Tokyo, Mangekyou HQ

Juugo has just got out of the elevator, a pile of files in his hands, heading to his CEO`s office.

The telephones wouldn't stop ringing since yesterday and they got a lot of stuff to do. The dark eyed Uchiha has got mercy on him and send him home to rest, while he was working days and nights in his office.

The gentle orange haired secretary really pitied his boss. He looked dead tired and he was drinking tons of coffee or energy drinks….or everything that contained caffeine overdose.

At least his cute maid was bringing him meals, otherwise Juugo was not sure how much time would have Sasuke resisted without ingesting anything solid.

He knocked at the door three times then pushed the door opened. He didn't wait for an answer, because in the last week, the CEO has been so engulfed into his paper work that wouldn't even acknowledge his presence.

And for some unknown reason it seemed that he was in a particularly bad mood that morning. "Did something happen to him yesterday?"

"…Ja, du musst diese Dokumente von morgen zu senden, aber…" Sasuke raised his black sapphire eyes from some papers he was studying, making a small pause in the conversation he had with some Deutsch business partner to look at his secretary. God the work was never going to end.

Juugo was about to leave and come back when his boss was going to finish his call, which was probably going to take some good minutes, but the Uchiha heir made a small gesture with his hand, urging him to stay.

"...nein…sie sich nicht…bitte warten Sie einen Moment…" He put the call on wait and rose from the chair, heading to his secretary.

"Juugo, got those files?"

"Yes Sir. You have the latest statistics, as well as a copy of the New York and Tokyo auction market."

Sasuke took the papers and scanned them, looking at the results. Things were not looking so promising. "I see…most of the oil and gas companies had a drop in their stocks values….and this is directly affecting us as well."

The midnight haired young Uchiha went back to his desk, opening up a web page that provided him the stock exchange markets in real time.

This is how every trader or stock broker was able to follow the values of the stocks and bonds of his competitors and investors. "Fuck…that Watanabe inc. has dropped the prices with 20% percentage…"

Juugo knew what his boss was talking about. Ever since two important heirs were murdered in such a short amount of time, there was a shake in the market, and many other smaller investors went bankrupt.

He looked at the CEO in understanding. He was working twice as hard to avoid such thing happening to the Mangekyou.

Sure, Walmarkt and Watanabe inc. were really important companies, but if Mangekyou was to ever go down…Juugo shook his head. Such thing was not allowed to happen, either way it was going to be an economic disaster.

"I am aware, Mr. Uchiha. I talked to the shareholders that had stocks on both companies. They want to lower their number of stocks from the Mangekyou."

Sasuke closed his dark eyes, pinching the bridge of his nose. That was not good. "If those idiots back off, we have to either raise the prices of the stocks or lower the authorized capital.

But Juugo, why are they taking their shares back from the Watanabe inc? Shouldn't they invest more money instead?"

"Haven't you heard the latest news Sir? Watanabe inc. has announced its insolvency. Their creditors have already asked for the liquidation and dissolution of the corporation in the court."

At that Sasuke`s dark eyes went wide. Ok, if that company has started that procedure, it will drag many others down as well, which means Mangekyou, as well as the others, will not be able to maintain the same value of their shares on the market.

"Fuck…this is bad."

"By the way, the Organizing Committee from the charity Ball has announced an upcoming event the next week."

"Event?" After all the problems they had, the raven haired man couldn't understand how could this people even think about that. Didn't they have their own companies to deal with? "And they ask themselves why their companies have a lot of debts…"

"It seems that for some unknown reason, the number of VIPs and heirs is really high this year. There are 546 confirmed participants so far and the number is growing. This without including their families and secretaries.

So they organized a mountain trip next week, for some of them who would like to participate. They asked for your presence especially, Sir. The invitation is in between the files I have given you."

"A mountain trip, are you serious?" Sasuke felt like banging his head on his desk. He didn't have time for such stupid things. But it was not like he was going to not participate, for he knew how important the event was.

"I called them and asked for the details. They said you will get an e-mail by the end of this day."

"Juugo…"

"Yes Sir?"

"Bring me a coffee. And don't add sugar or milk."

"Of course. I will be right back."

…3 minutes later…

Riiiiiinngggggg

"Yes?"

"Mr. Uchiha, your friend is here to see you."

"My friend? Which of them? Who from those two imbeciles is disturbing me at such time…."

"It is…"

Juugo didn't have time to finish his sentence, because the door of the office opened, revealing the one and only Hozuki heir, hands shoved in his pockets, letting himself in, like he was walking in his garden, much to the raven haired man`s dismay.

"Yo, Sasuke. Still playing the dedicated businessman?"

Sasuke felt like strangling his friend. And he had many reasons to do so. First, he was really pissed off and it was not because of the poor stocks exchange. Sure, the Uchiha was giving his best to stay in the top, but he was doing it out of professionalism. In his mind, Mangekyou and all the others could go to hell.

What was really bothering him was Sakura and her questionable boyfriend. Ever since last night, he couldn't find his peace of mind at all. He kept playing their little incredible moment in his memory, not able to explain why was she able to making himself share some of his emotions with her. And the idea of other man touching her or God forbids make love to her….he was going to vent on the smirking man in front of him, he was sure.

"What the fuck is with that ludicrous look on your face, Suigetsu? Don't you have stuff to do?"

Suigetsu was having both his eyebrows raised, a knowing smirk plastered on his face. He knew all too well why his friend was trying to make small children cry. It was probably because of a woman, and he would dare to say he knew exactly what woman.

He planted himself in one of the armchairs, arms spread, head bent backwards, eying his friend, who looked like he was about to come and do some damage to his face. Funny as hell.

"Ah don't be such an antisocial jerk Sasuke, or you will chase away all the beautiful ladies. Besides, I do have some things in mind. This is why I am here."

Sasuke, who was busy printing some files, raised a dark eyebrow, urging him to go on. As if his stupid friend ever had something useful to do, beside women or alcohol.

"No shit. And what business could you possibly have with me?"

"I am here to take your emo ass out of this crypt and go to the swimming place." Suigetsu couldn't help but let out a loud laugh upon seeing how his friend`s eyebrows went down in a dark heated stare, like daring him to repeat what he has just said.

"Ok. You said your lame joke now fuck off because I`ve got stuff to do."

Suigetsu rose from the armchair and approached Sasuke`s large desk. Suigetsu was never going to understand what was his friend possibly be doing with such a huge piece of furniture. Maybe he lacked interior design imagination. That shit was expensive and had the size of a swimming pool.

"Dude, c`mon, don't be such a drama queen. What could possibly happen in three of four hours and the other office directors won't be able to solve without you? Besides, you are working your stupid head too much. Get a damn break and let's get going. Summer is about to come and my skin is still white."

Sasuke could not believe how he could have befriended such a carefree idiot. Going to have fun when things were like that…he had to drown in paper work if he wanted to avoid Mangekyou to have a similar fate as his rivals. And to forget about she belonging to someone else…for the moment.

"You have three seconds to get out, Suigetsu."

"Not a chance. I am not leaving from here, alone. And you my friend…are going to come with me. Besides…what better way to forget about a woman than to go hunt other ones."

"I swear I am going to kill you one day, mark my words Suigetsu, and throw your dead body to the sharks."

"Ok, now that we have establish how I am not going to spend money on funerals, can we please get the hell out of this depressing place and say hello to some sun rays and hot bikinis?"

Sasuke knew he was doomed the moment Suigetsu entered his office. That man could not possibly accept no for an answer and he was always driving them into problems, just like last time.

"I hate you." Nonetheless, he shoved some files into his suitcase (he was going to study them on the sun lounger), took his jacket and threw his imbecile smirking friend a glare that sent him a very clear message. And it promised danger and a lot of bandages.

Suigetsu followed his arrogant friend out of his office. "Yeah, I know, it is the first thing you told me when we met."

10 am Sasuke`s home, Japan, Tokyo

After taking her bike from the airport, Sakura left it on the neighborhood mall` s parking lot, which was 2 minutes far from Sasuke`s home and was currently watching some wrestling match, with much interest.

Actually, she was that kind of passionate fan, that was screaming and chanting for her favorite wrestler, completely oblivious to a raven haired man and his friend`s arrivals.

Sasuke told his sailor idiot friend they were going to pay his home a visit to change into something less…formal and more appropriate for the kind of activity they were going to do there.

"So, dude, am I going to meet her now?"

The onyx eyed Uchiha has just tasted his password on the intercom, pulling the front door open.

"Who?"

"George Washington…your maid, obviously!"

Sasuke threw Suigetsu a dark glare, not answering his question and entering his home. The truth was…since he found Sakura alone in the kitchen with the other dobe of his friend, holding hands, he felt kind of bothered by Suigetsu meeting her.

"I remember telling you to mind your own goddamn business, Suigetsu."

Both the heirs got in the hall that connected the living room with the kitchen, taking their shoes off. Sasuke was doing his best to ignore his loud friend, praying that Sakura was somewhere else, just not there.

"So? Where are you keeping her hidden, heh? By the way, give me a glass of water, I am thirsty."

The raven haired Uchiha was already in his way to the stairs, not paying attention to what the idiot behind him was shouting. Like he could care less what the hell did he want. He could go die of thirst, for all he cared. Now where was his trunks, usually Sasuke was swimming in his own pool, on his own home, naked. Yeah, living alone had advantages.

"You know where the kitchen is."

"Dude, seriously, what kind of…"

"GOOOOOOO DAVID HUNKS, BREAK THAT MOTHER FUCKER`S NECK! OHHH FOR FUCK`S SAKE, WAS THAT A DIAMOND DUST, OR ARE YOU A BALLERINA?! MOVE THE HELL FASTER YOU IMBECILE GORILLA!"

Both Sasuke and Suigetsu took a peek in the living room, startled by the feminine hollerings coming from the living room. When Sasuke caught the idea of what his maid was doing he wanted to die, because his buddy was already nagging him with his infatuation on the said female and seeing her in hysterics was not the way he imagined their meeting would be.

Suigetsu stopped dead in his tracks. There, in the living room, a pretty petite young woman, with a hairstyle that rivaled a rocker`s after a massive headbanging session, in a really weird color, clad in what looked like his best friend`s T-Shirt (Suigetsu was already using that information for blackmail), because it was basically drowning her in, looking like she has just escaped the Jungle, chased by wild hungry animals, was standing on the big sofa, in a comical position, fisting her arms and flailing, shouting at the top of her lungs the most inspiring curses, looking at the huge TV, at what looked like a wrestling match.

It didn't take the Hozuki heir 1 millisecond to sprint into the kitchen, close the door behind and let his body roll on the floor, anime style, tears in his eyes, laughing his ass out loud, his lungs screaming for air.

Never in his life would have Suigetsu imagined a man like Sasuke Uchiha would have been interested in a thing that looked and acted like a circus monkey. He saw his friend in all situations possible, but that was by far the most epic one. Wait until Naruto was going to find out, the two of them were going to have a field day.

Sasuke remained glued to the floor, watching his maid in disbelief. He slapped his forehead with his left hand. She is going to be the death of him.

"Sakura…"

"YEAH LIKE THIS YOU LOSER! OK! BREAK HIS ARM NEXT, HIS ARM, TO THE GROUND WITH HIM!"

"Sakura…" Sasuke was getting irritated. He had one piece of maid screaming in the living room and one piece of a bastard of a friend making dead rise from their graves with his loud laughing. And a company to deal with. He was sure he was not going to live till he reached 40.

"Sakura!" The said woman turned her head upon hearing Sasuke`s piercing voice, almost falling off the couch. She managed to regain balance in the last minute, by grabbing the edge of it. Sasuke looked like he was silently asking himself if she was even full-aged, because she acted like a kid. Little did she knew that what crossed the onyx eyed man`s mind was how cute she looked like.

"Mr. Uchiha! When did you come?…omg I was so engulfed in this match that I haven't seen the GPS signal getting closer and this dimwit looks like he ingested sulfuric acid…I sooooo wanna kill him!"

"Just now. What the heck are you looking at?" In all honesty, Sasuke was never going to understand wrestling. In his opinion, it was an insult for all the martial arts.

"Wrestling! And guess what? My favorite wrestler won all the matches!"

Sasuke looked at his maid, stunned. Ever since she started to work for him, he has never seen her truly enjoying something, like in that very moment, and he couldn't help the tiny sparkle in his chest, upon seeing her curl those desirable pink lips up, into the most ethereal smile he ever saw.

Her all delicate features seemed to glow and those green diamond eyes were gleaming of light and innocence, like she was attracting him to fade into its depths. He was at loss of all words. It was probably because of the way she was jumping and trashing her body on his expensive sofa, but her hair was not covering her face entirely for once.

She was so beautiful and tender looking, it was almost painful for the raven haired man to stay put and not pull her into his arms and kiss her. Even dressed in only a large piece of clothing and some short pants, she was lovely.

"Sir? Is something the matter?" Sakura became all shaky all of sudden. There was something in the way Sasuke was looking at her, as he was seeing a precious stone for the first time, admiring its beauty and that made her own body tense, but not in an unpleasant way.

"…Sakura…anata wa…" God, the Uchiha wanted to go, take a weapon of some sorts and perform hara-kiri. Look at him being so fascinated by his maid, that he couldn't even differentiate between Japanese and English. "…stop messing my expensive furniture and get down, before you break your neck or something."

"O-okay. Sorry." Sakura got off the couch, embarrassed by her childish behavior. She knew Sasuke was a stoic man and her acting like she was with her friend Karin, in her villa was lowering her chances to get closer to him. "I am stupid stupid stupid…but he is so hot speaking this language I cannot even get close to understand…"

"But Mr. Uchiha…why do I hear someone laughing in the kitchen?" Both of them turned their eyes in the direction of the closed door.

"That…is my friend Suigetsu, begging for a good beating." Sasuke turned around and started climbing the stairs, to his room. He was bothered by what he has seen, not in the mood to deal with his imbecile embarrassing friend. Why was he even ashamed with Suigetsu, because his maid was acting just as stupid as him?

"I am going outside."

"….Ok." "Outside? Guess me and my new friend the speedy moped are going to take a little walk keke." Sakura really enjoyed her ride, that motorcycle in disguise (bah, just like her) was a killer on the roads. She arrived to Sasuke`s home in only 30 minutes from the airport. She secretly wondered how come police hasn't stopped her. The pink haired woman took small steps in the direction of the kitchen. "I want to meet this friend of his."

Same time, Japan, Tokyo, Akatsuki`s private villa

Naruto emerged from the living room, dressed in his green pajamas with Panda bears and pink hearts, because he was a tough man like that, yawning and stretching his hands.

"`Morning guys!" The other two inhabitants of the spacious room eyed him intently. Ten Ten was curled on the sofa, with a bowl of cereals and milk in her lap, barely keeping her eyes opened. Neji has just returned from his morning training, all sweaty and brooding. It was really hot outside, for that season.

"Morning my ass…from where does all that energy comes from anyways?" The chestnut Akatsuki member was not going to ever understand that man`s stamina. And he was so loud, making her go deaf.

Naruto took a sit on the sofa, putting his arm around his female colleague`s shoulders, pulling her into a bear hug and stealing some of her breakfast. The said woman eyed him like she wanted to punch his face.

"Uzumaki, kitchen is that way. Please proceed."

"Awww…you are so boring Tennie, really. What is the point in making your own breakfast anyways?" The blonde haired man took the bottle of milk from the Akatsuki member`s hand and took a deep gulp.

Neji looked like he was going to throw up. "You guys are disgusting."

"Shut up Hyuga, your ass attitude is the only disgusting thing here. Just go and take a goddamn shower already." Ten Ten was always in a bad mood when she woke up. Really, who the hell invented mornings anyways?

"You hear the lady Neji, go die." The said man felt like strangling his fiancé and best friend, for annoying the hell out of him every morning. And the motherfuckers who were watching cartoons like two kindergarten children, were doing it on purpose every….fuckin…morning.

"I swear I am going to…"

"You know what guys? I have an idea!" Ten Ten and the Hyuga heir looked at Naruto in horror. When he got an idea it usually ended up with them either at the police office on hospital.

"Let`s hear it. But please do not say anything related to donkeys, champagne and mushrooms." The chestnut eyed woman was not going to forget that party all her life. No one ever talked about the orgy…not even Tsunade`s fiancé.

"Why don't we all take a break from doing nothing and head to the swimming place? I want to visit that new Aqua Land or whatever the name is. I hear they have artificial waves for surfing!"

The two engaged CIA members thought hard. That didn't sound too bad, considering it was Naruto the one to come up with the idea.

"I am in. Neji?"

"Yes, I would like to take a break and escape this hotness outside. God, I swear my skin is going to melt."

"AWESOME! We are going to have so much…"

"WE ARE SORRY TO INTERRUPT THIS PROGRAM! HERE IS THE LATEST NEWS FROM TOKYO. THE POLICE OFFICERS HAVE DISCOVERED THE DECAPITATED BODIES OF FOUR UNIDENTIFIED PEOPLE, NEAR THE TOKYO HARBOR. UNTIL NOW, THERE IS NO TRACE OF THE CRIMINALS AND POLICE DOES NOT HAVE ANY SUSPECT."

The Akatsuki members watched in shock the disgusting scene of murder, with four bodies, separated from their heads. That looked like trouble.

Author`s Note: Ok, so this is the only way I found to separate the scenes, because for some reason I cannot understand, no other symbols or lines seem to work. I really hope this will make the story easier to follow. If it only worsens things please do tell me. I can totally understand what is like to read on the screen, doing your best to not skip sentences.

Also, I know this may sound childish and you can totally feel free to overlook this paragraph, because is not going to affect the story in any way, but I have the urge to let it out. I am being honest when I say the idea of giving up this story has crossed my mind.

I thought about the fact that it is not doing so well and why waste precious space here, when there are other more talented writers and much more appealing stories to be read.

But after talking to my cousin and a very dear person to me, ElevatedJewel, I realized just how stupid I was to think like that.

Sure, all of us want to be appreciated, but just for those people that didn't give up on me and kept reading this story, coming back every new chapter and even sharing their opinions with me (like other two very important fans I know, who reviewed every chapter, sakura . souen and SasuSaku993 and for what I am extremely grateful), and for the fact that I love Naruto to no end and I do want to express it this way, I decided to continue.

I am sorry for such thoughts to have crossed my mind and I don't want you guys to misunderstand me, nor I want to disappoint you. I just felt like letting you know this…

I managed to write a new chapter…in a day, of that I am proud. I really hope you will like it as well.

Hm…I wonder who is Sasuke collaborating with… Well, no he is part of no experiment, nor is he working for a special secret branch, of that I can assure you. The rest…you will going to find out.
