Summary : Sasuke was never the really one to talk. He never spoke more that two words. That is until Sakura and Ino makes a bet. "Sakura, I bet you can't make Sasuke talk more than two words. If you can, I'll ask Shikamaru out." "Tch. You watch me Ino." "Oh wait, Sakura if you lose, you gotta spend one whole day with Karin." "Deal."
Nerve-wracking, anxious, scared? Sakura was just flat out worried on what Sasuke can do to her. She looked at the river and shuddered. She indeed did not want to get wet in that. What other things could he do to her while she's here at god-knows-where Kakashi brought her to. 'Well, he can always "punish" you that way if ya know what I mean heh,' Inner Sakura pervertedly thought. 'This is not the time right now,' Sakura remarked sarcastically and ignore her inner-self. Sakura was too caught up on her thoughts to notice that a car was parked next to Kakashi's and that the oh-so-famous Uchiha Sasuke had been walking towards her.
"You might wanna run now Sakura," Kakashi cut her from her thoughts. Sakura looked at him curiously.
"What? Why?" Kakashi pointed at the walking figure that was closing up every second. Sakura's eyes widened. "Oh crap." And she sprinted to the other side of the meadow. Turning around she saw Sasuke jogging after her, smirking. 'Che, arrogant bastard who thinks he can catch up to me. I'll show him wrong.' Sakura thought to herself as she ran even faster than before.
"You can run but you can't hide." Sasuke shouted. Sakura rolled her eyes.
"Oh please, don't use that same old line in every horror movie! Don't you have some other unique line?" Sakura shouted back while looking behind her for a second.
"Hn. I'll catch you and I'll severely punish you."
"Severely? Please Sasuke, you can't even hurt a ant for peeps sake." Oh that did it alright. Sasuke, who was jogging before, ran in full speed. Which was just Sakura's luck since she was running out of breath. Her legs couldn't keep up anymore which made her fall.
"W-wait! I call a time-out!" Sakura said when Sasuke was slowly and darkly approaching her.
"Of course you need a time-out because you're going to get punish as of right now." (A/N: get it? time out? like in punishing terms? no oke ahha)
"B-but-!" Sakura cut herself off when Sasuke lifted her up and hung her over his shoulders.
"Now, where should we start?"
Time Skip
"STOP. YOU ARE RUINING MY INNOCENCE WITH THIS FANFIC THAT YOU BOTH LIKE."
"Not really. I'm just enjoying this because it's torturing you." It's been an hour of Kakashi reading his favorite fanfic aka Icha Icha Paradise to Sakura, who's been tied up.
"When will this torturing stop Sasuuukkkeeee?" Sakura whined.
"When I get you to stop calling me 'chicken ass hair.'"
"OKAY, SO JUST PLEASE TELL KAKASHI TO STOP READING HIS FANFIC AND UNTIE ME BECAUSE I'M GETTING NUMB ALL OVER." Kakashi stopped for a brief moment to say "I don't see what there's not to like about it though."
"Everything about it makes it unlikable." Sasuke coughed and Sakura turned her attention back to him.
"Hn. Anyways, if you call me 'chicken ass hair'- Oh how he hated this name she came up with -after this day and onward, I'll kiss you." 'Woah woah woah wait.. Sasuke? KISSING US?!' Inner Sakura fangirled.
"Kiss?! Out of anything, kissing?" Sakura was going to be kissed millions of times. You know what they say, old/bad habits die hard.
"Simply to shut your mouth from saying that -cursed- name." Well either way, Sakura didn't have a choice.
"Okay, okay! Just untie me!" After Sasuke untied her, Sakura immediately fell due to the numbness in her legs or rather her whole body. Luckily, Sasuke caught her just in time.
"Remember what'll happen if you say that name again, Sakura." Sasuke whispered only for her to hear when he carried her bridal style. Kakashi stood up, brushing dust off his pants.
"Shall we go home now?" As Kakashi drove off on his own car, Sasuke and Sakura were in another. 'There's no way that's the only thing Sasuke has in mind for the punishment.' Sakura thought cautiously.
"...Is there more to it?" Sakura asked quietly. Sasuke's mouth quirked upwards.
"I wouldn't be relieved yet Sakura." She sweatdropped. Of course there was more. She inwardly teared up.
Time Skip
"Okay, I know there was more to the punishment but this?! This out of anything?"
"I do hope you know your position here because you don't have a choice." There stood Sakura, blushing furiously with a scrub in her hands and Sasuke sitting in a bathtub full of bubbles which Sakura thank silently. "If you keep standing there and stare at me, I'll get sick and you'll be the one taking care of me."
"Fine you arrogant chi-" Sakura stopped talking and saw Sasuke smirk at her. She was almost a second too late. She took a stool and sat next to the bathtub. Sakura started scrubbing his back which was very manly. 'Imagine that very back with our fingerna-' Inner Sakura was cut off when Sakura furiously scrub his back, thinking there were fingernail prints there. However, that thought was gone with a poof when Sasuke turned around and grabbed her wrist.
"You're scrubbing too hard." Sakura looked down and saw something that was very, very likable to a woman's eyes. She completely forgot that Sasuke was looking at her and quickly gazed her eyes to somewhere else.
"S-sorry. I'll try not to scrub so hard.." Sasuke guided her hand to his chest and let go. "W-wha-"
"Scrub Sakura." Sakura smiled devilishly. She threw the scrub at his face and stood away from the bathtub.
"No Mr. I will punish you. You need to learn your manners again." After saying that Sakura quickly turned away and ran for it. Today was the day Sakura died from Sasuke's torturing.
Library
"I wonder how Sakura is progressing with this bet of ours," Ino mumbled to herself when she picked up a book from the shelves. She turned around at a corner to go to another section of the library when she bumped into Shikamaru. 'Just what I needed to see.' Ino sarcastically remarked to herself.
"Oh! Shikamaru! What a surprise to see you here!" Shikamaru stared at her before saying 'troublesome' and kept on walking. Ino grunted. If she was going to lose this bet, she'll have to get into better terms with Shikamaru first before asking him out. "So what are you doing here?" She asked when she caught up to him. She didn't get a response so she stepped forward and block his view. "You should really reply when someone's asking you something you know." He sighed. He showed her a book and said "I'm here to get the second book to this series. Anything else you wanna ask?" Ino smirked.
"Your number." Shikamaru almost dropped his book.
"Huh?" Was he that deaf? Ino mentally cried. How was she suppose to ask him out, yet alone talk to him?
"I want to know your number so I can text you."
"Troublesome. No thanks." She was done with his 'troublesome' attitude so she reached inside his pocket to take out his phone. Shikamaru was too slow to catch her arm when she pulled it back. After inserting her number into his and vice versa, she gave it back to him.
"Then look forward for texting tonight!" And with that she left him dumbfounded. Shikamaru's eyes went to his phone. He searched through his contacts to see what she named herself as in his phone. It read 'Princess Ino.' He stared at it for a while and shoved his phone into his pocket before saying "Too troublesome to change it."
