Day Eighteen He Said She Said

[a/n: as I said in day six this is going to continue from there cause I can't help it if I like the idea alright… nothing in the rules stated that wasn't allowed, also might continue into Bonnie and Clyde...]

Summary: Sakura inherited one of the nation's top crime rings from her father when he passed away. She doesn't want to be, she's a doctor… she just wants to help people. So she needs some help getting out and turns to a certain agency mole to help her.

They arrived back at her home greeted by her dogs she smiled fondly and let them out into the yard. She lived in a good neighborhood, gated community, security system, and with a few large dogs she hadn't felt unsafe. She slipped off her black pumps and walked in the grass relishing in how it felt cool on her feet. Sasuke stood at the door watching her as she slipped off the jacket she had on from earlier. Soon the dogs were back inside and so was she, hanging up her things and offering him something to eat. He agreed and she smiled tying up her hair as she started cooking something simple. They ate in relative silence save for the stifled giggles regarding the dogs staring at them.

"Do they always do this?" he asked and she nodded softly

Later they finished eating and she got up putting the dishes in the dish washer and starting it.

"I'm going to take a shower, you can leave for the night if you want…" she offered a smile

"I'm supposed to be your guard…" he paused "Do you have a spare key?" he asked and she nodded "Let me have it, I'll pick up some stuff from my apartment and come back." He instructed and she nodded

"I'll get the guest room made up while you're gone." She said handing him the key. He had her lock the door behind him and asked that she not open it to anyone while he was gone. When he left she made up the guest bed and checked over the second bathroom before deciding to run a bath. She stripped out of her clothing and put on a green satin robe that matched her eyes; she tied her hair higher on her head in a messy bun and added some oils, salts, and bubbles to the bath. She got into the tub and closed her eyes willing herself to relax, she grabbed some paperback book she had been reading and carefully kept it off to the side in one hand away from most of the water.

She heard the sound of the lock clicking and the familiar sound of dog nails clicking on hardwood, a few tentative woofs before they relaxed.

"Sakura?" his voice greeted her happily but she made no moved to put the book anywhere

"Bathroom," she called and soon she heard him walk in her direction, pausing to drop off his bag in the guest room before continuing towards her. She looked up from her reading seeing him lean against the doorway, blazer and tie gone, shirt undone by a few buttons, no shoes, no socks, and just watching her. She was suddenly glad for the thick covering of bubbles over her.

"Can I help you?" she asked putting the book down and he shrugged walking over to her and sitting on the edge of the tub, she was half tempted to try and pull him in just to see what would happen.

"You look rather relaxed for someone whose shutting down the biggest, most powerful, and most dangerous crime ring." He smirked and she sat up just enough to show off a bit of her chest.

"Oh really…? Should I look how my father did? Paranoid and trigger happy?" she asked leaning onto the side looking up at him sideways.

"Not sure… but I know no other crime queen in the world has a bunch of three legged dogs." He laughed "Or thinks about getting blind cats." She looked hurt

"I'm totally getting some of those cats…" she grumbled and leaned back again. "You're welcome to join me." She commented with a sultry look. "It's a pretty big tub…" she noted picking up her book again and starting to read it. She could see him weighing the options over in his head. She heard him sigh and then the sound of undressing noting that he put his gun on the closed toilet seat, "Have you ever killed someone?" she asked

"Yeah, I used to be a sniper…" he said offhandedly as he took off his shirt first letting it crumble and then his pants, followed by his boxers. She stared at her book while he climbed in flinching at how warm the water was before settling. "Have you?" he asked leaning back against the far side, the tub was large and it was rather deep but she still scooted to one side her feet brushing up against his thigh his doing just about the same to her.

"No, I haven't even shot a gun…" she looked at him and he looked shocked

"Your father didn't make you learn how?" he asked

"No, growing up he'd never let me see or hear anything bad, he never told me what he did or what he was going to do… he kept me from knowing an seeing it," she sighed putting the book down again. "I knew what he was doing, he hated doing paperwork, utterly horrid speller, the shittiest penmanship I've ever seen in my life and I'm an expert in chicken scratch." They both laughed at that

"So he never even taught you so you could protect yourself?" she shook her head "Yeah never would have pegged you for a crime boss… let alone the daughter of one."

"My mother died when I was young… but I'm sure you knew that, after that he was determined to give me anything I wanted and keep me away from what he did. Anyone from the clan that so much as said anything to me or even looked at me the wrong way was… taken care of." she explained "He gave me a stun gun… put me in self-defense classes… but I was never allowed to even touch his firearms. I never even tried, I didn't see the need." She continued on hardly noticing that her foot was moving idly up his leg and he didn't say anything.

"When I was just out of med school, got my first job… I was in the ER… a rival gang came in one of them was shot… they recognized who I was and I had a gun pointed at my head… sure I knew my father wasn't the nicest person but he never once got angry at me, never once made me feel anything but safe." She was looking towards him but not really at him her eyes distant as she spoke. "I said I didn't know anything… said I wasn't going to do anything but help… they let me but I still had a gun on me. I hated it… every second of it… my boss let me go home after it… said I could take time off if needed… I said I'd let her know… she was surprised I'd been so calm… she didn't know what my father did… she just thought they were violent and just wanted their friend cared for without anything funny happening." She leaned her head back. "I remember walking into his office during some big meeting and sitting down, it stopped in an instant but I waved for them to go on, nothing they were all silent. I got up went over to the bar in there and took a couple shots of whiskey before I broke down crying." She let out a shaken breath. "My father dismissed all of them, the second the door closed I was on the ground sobbing, he held me asked what happened, I hadn't even realized I still had my scrubs on, still had my jacket with my hospital I.D. card on… that I was covered in blood…" she let out a bitter laugh. "I told him what happened and I demanded to know why it did. I wanted to know everything, he didn't want to tell me and it was hours before he did."

"How did that go…?" Sasuke asked shifting as the actions against his leg had stopped

"A lot of yelling, mostly from me, he told me I was still shocked even if I should have known… I had a few more drinks, whiskey sucks by the way…" she let out another shaken laugh, "but he told me, told me everything I ever asked and from that day on he would be open, tried to groom me to take over while still trying to protect me, put out a clear message if I were harmed or threatened the person would die." She sighed "which is why my dating life was utterly minimal…" she looked at him.

"He got sick right?" Sasuke asked and she nodded

"When he did he asked that I take over… he said if I didn't it'd be better that I leave and lay low for a while… so I took over." She sighed and he sat up and moved so he was leaning over her.

"That was a brave thing to do…" he whispered before kissing her deeply and quickly she returned the action. Soon she was pushing him back straddling him in the tub her chest mostly out of the water but covered by bubbles. Their actions became more heated, more lustful, and more desperate to take control. They continued for a while their breathing turning into soft pants their hands roaming when someone knocked loudly on her front door, the dogs were barking and she froze letting out a low growl and stared at it. When the knocking started again she let out a string of curses and stepped out of the tub drying herself off with a towel and slipping on her robe from before. She started towards the door when his hand clamped hard on her wrist.

"Wait for me…" he said his tone indicating it was an order and she nodded going to get the dogs to calm down and soon he was behind her, chest still warm from the bath, pants on now but no belt, but there was a gun.

"Open it…" he said his toned conveyed a different feeling than what possible danger there could be. She looked through the peephole seeing one of her dad's old friends, one of the top people of her clan and carefully unlocked the door.

"Kisame, what in the hell could you possibly want." She sounded horribly bored as the man walked into her apartment.

"Just catching up, seeing how you were…" he looked between them "though I'm guessing you're doing well…" he smirked and she glared.

"Yeah nice try, I have surgeries at the ungodly hour of 6am tomorrow… so if you could wrap this up before I poison you in that 'health water' you're always drinking that'd be great."

"Little birdy told me you went into a federal agency building today…" he started and she gave nothing away anything akin to surprise anyway.

"Little birdy is a lying twat waffle," she countered arms crossed.

"Oh so why was your car there?" he asked and she shrugged "How the fuck should I know… are you talking about the building on main?" she asked to which he nodded and she rolled her eyes.

"They big tall one, yeah that one," He all but chided her and she made a dangerous sound.

"You know the first floor of that building is open to the public and has a few little café's right?" he shook his head "You know they have those little pastries I love so much right?" Again he shook his head and she opened the door. "Yeah well that's where it is… I wanted some so I made Sasuke drive me now, if you're done wasting my time get out." She snapped and the man left. She locked the door behind him and looked at the man still standing there with a gun in hand.

"I'm impressed…" he smirked and came towards her surprised when she backed up.

"Put the gun somewhere else… please…" she asked and he nodded placing it on the counter. "Thank you, now I think I'm going to shower and tuck in…" she sauntered down the hall and when he didn't follow looked back at him "What not coming along…" she asked and he smirked following behind her.

They showered together, they made love to one another and it continued on into the night, the sounds of their moans filled her homes, gasps of each other's names, and wanton words whispered between them. They did this for a while until she complained of sleeping and threated castration if he didn't let her get at least four hours for tomorrow.

The next morning rolled around and she woke up to her alarm, letting out the dogs, fixing herself breakfast and smiling softly at her protector, and now lover, still sleeping. She snapped a photo on her phone and at the sound of the camera shutter his eyes snapped open and looked at her. She giggled and walked back towards the main room.

"I don't want to be late for my first surgery, he's been on the transplant list long enough…" she chided and he got dressed in something almost the same from the day before except dark blue instead of black. He ate something fast and downed a cup of coffee before they were off.
