Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto (If I did, Sasuke and Sakura would be together by now. xD)
Ehehe.. Sorry for making all of you guys wait so long.
When I first wrote the previous chapter, I wanted to write about how Sakura was at the movies. I guess it was easier said than done, huh? ;
After I noticed that I was getting too many reviews to possibly ignore, I was just like "screw the movie. I'll skip right to the morning." So gomen (sorry) to everyone who was looking forward to wanted to know how the night went. I really am sorry. D:
Thanks for all the reviews, everyone. I really appreciate it. :D

Chapter three: Lateness
Sakura was late.
Not that Sasuke cared or anything. She's probably just on her bed still shivering about that movie (Which in his opinion was the dumbest horror movie he had ever seen). But then again, she could have been kidnapped by some thugs after he dropped her off home yesterday night. Damn, he should have made sure she made it to the door.
"Or maybe she forgot to set her alarm clock?" Naruto suggested when Sasuke voiced his opinions where she could be. "Come on, teme. What else do you think she could be doing?"
Actually, he could think up of one more thing that she could be doing on her bed besides sleeping. But then again, he may be thinking too much into this.
Sasuke sighed as he looked at her desk filled with papers. No doubt about one thing, though.
She will be punished for being late.
xoxoxoxo
Sakura yawned loudly, squinting at the light emitted from all over the house. After seeing that movie last night, she couldn't sleep soundly without lights on. What if it came to get her? These are the times when she wished someone else lived with her. Maybe she should, considering the fact that she can barely pay for her apartment (thanks to those weekly shopping trips with Ino).
"Well, I slept amazingly well." She said to nobody in particular.
Stretching a bit, she took a glance at the clock. "Two o' clock pm…" she thought out loud, while she continued to stretch. Slowly, her eyes widened and she stopped doing quadriceps.
'Oh my god, please tell me it's Sunday. PLEASE TELL ME IT'S SUNDAY.' She prayed hopefully, closing her eyes to try to bring more luck. Unfortunately, luck was not on her side today.
Grabbing her car keys, she ran at full speed chanting "HOLY SHIT I'M SIX HOURS LATE."
xoxoxoxo
"Miss, are you aware that you were 30 miles above the speed limit?"
"Ano…"
"I'm sorry, but I have to give you a ticket for this."
"How long does that take?" asked Sakura, grabbing on to the policeman's arm desperately.
"I'd say about five to ten minutes?"
"MY BOSS IS GOING TO KILL ME." She wailed, sinking in her chair more.
xoxoxoxo
"Aren't you being a bit touchy today, Uchiha?" Hyuuga Neji questioned when the said man threw his cell phone at the wall, shattering it to pieces.
"A certain someone needs to shut the fuck up before he ends up like that cell phone." The Uchiha gritted out. There had better be a good reason why Haruno wasn't picking up her home phone.
Neji rolled his eyes. "You have anger problems."
"Look in the mirror, Hyuuga."
The man's pearl eyes twitched just the slightest bit. "I see your new secretary isn't here today."
Sasuke scowled.
"That's too bad. I was hoping to meet her."
"Better not get it the wrong way, Hyuuga." Sasuke spat out, glaring at the Hyuuga heir.
The pearl eyed man raised his eyebrows and smirked. "Of course. Who would dare make a move on the new secretary the multibillionaire's been so affectionate about? "
Before Sasuke could say anything, he heard a 'DING' from the elevator.
"I'M HERE." A feminine voice shouted, running from the elevator and to her desk.
Sasuke rolled his eyes "Yeah, way to go, Haruno. You're seven hours late."
The pink hair girl pouted. "At least I came, you bastard. Show some appreciation."
Neji smirked amusingly at Sasuke. "I see you let her swear at you." He stated, smirking wider.
Death glare. "Could you excuse us for ten minutes, Hyuuga?"
"Of course. I'll be at Tenten's office if you need me." He replied, the smirk still on his face while he left.
After the Uchiha was sure the man was gone, he swiveled to face the pink-haired woman.
"Do you have any idea how late you are?" he asked her, walking toward her.
The woman instinctively backed up until her legs hit the edge of his desk. "Well, I--"
"Where were you?" he asked, cutting her off.
"Home?"
"Tch. I should have fired you from day one."
"Then why don't you?" she asked boldly. Hell, she wasn't going to take that standing down.
But instead of a scowl and a "you're fired" like she expected, he gave his famous smirks, making her stomach flutter.
"You intrigue me, Haruno Sakua." He whispered, resting his hands on her desk, pinning her.
"Uh-huh…" She murmured, aware of their situation.
"But you will be punished." He stated, leaning his head to the side of her neck nuzzling it.
"Really, now? And how is that?" She asked, her bravery coming back to her.
"You know, sometimes you should really shut up." He whispered in her ear and in a instant his lips came crashing into hers.
Sakura closed her eyes and mindlessly kissed him back until it registered in her head.
What do you think you're doing? A voice in her head asked her. Her eyes opened.
WAKE UP. You're kissing your, the unmistakable multibillionaire
THAT got her to pull away, eyes wide open.
"I uh… I'll go get us some coffee!" She managed to squeak out, her face crimson.
Anxious to get to the elevator, she scurried over, pressed the down button, and waited ten seconds before it opened.
The emerald eyed woman pressed the button 'L' repeatedly, determined not to look at the Uchiha.
'FINALLY' she screamed in her head when the elevator door closed.
xoxoxoxo
Sasuke blinked. What just happened? Did he just kiss his secretary?
Damn. Must have been the beer I drank today. He thought mentally.
"You didn't drink beer today" A mental voice reminded him.
Sasuke groaned.
xoxoxoxo
"Okay, Sakura. Calm down. Maybe he's drunk" She thought while pouring coffee into two paper cups.
"But I didn't smell any alcohol in his breath." She sighed, putting caps on both the paper cups with coffee in them.
"Maybe you should just forget about it, Sakura. Maybe it was just a daydream." She shook her head a few times, trying to convince herself.
"A daydream that's very realistic." She muttered, walking in the elevator and pressing the "35" button
xoxoxoxo
"Here's your coffee!" she said cheerfully, handing the Uchiha a cup of coffee.
"Remember, Sakura. Daydream. Daydream…"
"Thanks."
Sakura went to her desk and went to work. "Man. I'll be here after nine with all this "
xoxoxoxo
"Mm.. I'm beat." She thought out loud, walking to the parking lot while watching the clouds drifted away from the full moon.
It was around 9:10 by now considering it was 9:00 when Sakura stopped working.
"What the—AHHHHH!" The emerald eyed woman screamed as she barely avoided a Bugatti Veyron car sped towards her and halted.
And out came the man she was trying her hardest to avoid today.
"Haruno, get in."
"I uh.. What?" she sputtered out, bewildered.
"You know what I said."
"Why?" She asked, still puzzled. Something was up.
His eyes narrowed. "Just because I'm giving you a ride doesn't mean something is up."
Her eyes widened. 'Whoa. A mind reader?'
"I just want you to make sure you get home safely." He muttered, staring at the ground and kicking a small rock before meeting her eyes again.
'Aww… he wants to make sure you get home safely.' A voice in her head teased.
She grinned. Maybe this guy wasn't such a jerk after all.
"Okay then." She said and got in after he opened the door for her.
"All right then. Let's go." He declared when he got in the driver's seat. And with a smirk, he started driving.
"AHH. SLOW DOWN. AREN'T YOU SCARED ABOUT GETTING A TICKET?" The female screamed, clutching driver's seat.
He gave a chuckle. "No." he replied as he continued driving.
xoxoxoxo
Haha. Well, that's the end. I tried to make it longer than the other ones just for you guys.
Well, there was a kiss. Though I thought it was kind of an awkward kiss, but maybe it's just me. You know, I was reading the first chapter of this story (I never read my chapters over. xD) and I was like "This is pretty good, actually…" Wow. And I thought I really really sucked.
Anyways, it's voting time
I've been thinking about making this fanfic more mature rated and stuff. But I'm not really sure if I should make this fanfic more mature rated or if it should stay the same. So when you guys review, please tell me if you want more mature rated stuff or if you want it to stay the same. D
Don't forget to review. It keeps me going!
