It's not often that the 12-year-old Itachi gets escort missions, but when he does get them he is completely bored.
Not this time though.
Haruno Sakura was tiny, and, well, pink. He face was all green eyes and rosy cheeks. She had been quiet at first but now he had an arm full of over-eager child telling him everything about her day.
It was extremely refreshing how utterly sincere she was. It was comforting, that she believed in him and trusted him. Like his little brother, but not quite. It was endearing.
So just this once he doesn't mind babysitting.
