WARNING! GenderBent SasuSaku! If you don't like, don't read.

So this was inspired by a fanart I found. Sasuke & Sakura are genderbent (meaning they're the oppisite gender) & I just thought it'd be cute/different. I don't think i've ever read (and I know I've never written) a genderbent story...

Um, yeah, nothing else to say XD Hope you enjoy. ALSO! I don't know if Sasu & Saku have genderbent names like Naru does, so I kept them the same, sorry if it confuses anyone... :S

Summary: Sasuke's tough and fierce, like a thorn. But underneath all that is the soft and loving flower petal Sakura loves.

"Sasuke, what do you think of roses?" A gruff but gentle voice asked. The voice belonged to a tall pink haired man. His green eyes shone in the afternoon sun of Konaha. The shorter woman beside him shrugged and turned her attention away from the man.

"I don't usually think about flowers." Sasuke answered. Her tone rude with a slight hint of annoyance. The pink haired man chuckled at the female's response. Typical.

"Oh come on Sasuke. You have to like flowers. You are a girl, aren't you?" More laughter came from the green eyed man. The raven haired female glared at him.

"I am thank you very much. And not all women are flower and man obsessed, got it Sakura?" Sasuke barked, glaring at the taller man next to her. She felt the urge to kick him for stereotyping her with the other women in Konaha. She wasn't them. She was herself.

"Alright, I got it." Sakura chuckled lightly, feeling a small flame of fear flicker inside his stomach. He was afraid of Sasuke for many reasons. Though Sasuke was smaller in size, she made up for it with her strength and fiery attitude. Sakura knew his ass would be kicked straight into next month if he continued the conversation any.

"Hurry up you idiot." Sasuke mumbled, popping Sakura out of his thoughts. The raven haired female was three feet in front of the pink haired man. Sakura blinked.

"Hey Sasuke, wait up!" Sakura shouted to his partner.

-x-

The strange pair walked down the dirt streets of Konaha until they came to an apartment building. Sasuke stopped and stared up at the man next to her.

"What are you still doing with me?" She narrowed her dark eyes. Sakura grinned.

"I thought you'd like to have some company." Sasuke blinked and let out a sigh. Sakura wasn't going to leave her alone, so she might as well invite him in.

"Fine, just don't touch anything..." The raven rolled her eyes and entered the building, taking the stairs to her floor. Once the two reached the door, Sasuke stopped and turned to face the pink haired man. He looked down at her, confusion filling his eyes.

"..." Sasuke blanked. What had she planned to say anyways? Something cheesy? No, that wasn't her. Maybe thanks for always being there? But then he'd ask why she said it all of the sudden. No, it was best to not imply anything remotely romantic. Their relationship was business only.

"I...Uh, d-don't track any mud into my house!" Sasuke had decided to shout at her partner. A faint blush dusted her pale cheeks and she hid her face with her hair. Sakura blinked, not knowing what to say.

Sasuke shook off her flushed features and opened the door to her apartment. Her dark eyes widened at the sight in front of her. Roses.

Roses everywhere! On the table, scattered all over the floor, hanging in coat pockets and on the walls. The roses were red of varying shades.

"W-what is this?" Sasuke's words came out slowly and quietly. What was she to think? Who had done this? Wait. She knew. The raven haired female whipped her head around to see the pink haired man grinning at his obvious work.

"What the hell is this!" Sasuke shouted at her partner. Sakura grinned and reached for a nearby rose.

"They're roses, beautiful ones at that." Sakura sniffed the beautiful flower.

"I know what they are! Why the hell are they in my house!" The raven's eyebrow twitched slightly.

"Because they remind me of you." Sakura smiled, staring down at Sasuke with passion. His emerald eyes sparkled, even though the room was dimly lit from the hallway light. Sasuke's throat was tight, and she felt like oxygen wasn't going into her lungs. Sakura had said many stupid things like that to Sasuke. He did it on a daily bases, but Sasuke had always thought it was a joke, something he did because he enjoyed teasing the Uchiha. Maybe the pinklette was always serious about it.

"..." Sasuke opened her mouth, but words wouldn't form on her tongue. Sakura chuckled and held the flower out to her.

"I know this may sound stupid, cheesy, whatever...But I love you Sasuke. I really do." Sakura's smile was warm and comforting. Heat bubbled onto the raven haired female's cheeks as she crossed her arms and sighed.

"I suppose, I love you too..." Sasuke said, embarrassed because of the smile that grew on her partners face as she spoke her words.

Sakura chuckled. She's beautiful like the petals of a rose, tough and sharp like the thorns and soft and caring like the whole flower. And that's why I love her.

Sucky ending, I know! Sorry!

So, next story I'm thinking something angsty...What do you think? Maybe an angsty two-shot...? Let me know what you think :)
