The second of my collection of one-shots Art-Chan inspired me to write! These will all include Sakura and any of the other Naruto characters you, she, or I can come up with! I take requests through reviews by the way!

A Dream Does Inspire…

A steamy dream turns into a bit more when the object of said dream returns her affections. Sakura X Neji

Rated M for obvious sexy time! And well, this turned out so steamy! I don't think I've written anything this hot and heavy before. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did : )

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto

The place was foreign to her, but that didn't matter. The male before her did.

His hands were tangled in her hair, and his mouth felt hot hot hot on her neck. His hands were ghosting over her sides, and all she needed was this moment. His long brown locks fell from his low pony tail and intertwined with her rosette colored ones.

A low moan escaped her lips, and she felt him grind his hips into hers in response. Kami-sama, their clothes weren't even off, and she needed him inside her.

Almost as if he felt her need, he ripped off her shirt in one heated motion. As the tattered garment fell to the floor, Sakura could think of no better place for it. As his mouth detached from her neck, it met her own in a heated twist of tongues, teeth, and lips.

"Oh Kami," Sakura let out another moan as he grinded his hips harder against her pelvis. Her hands gripped his chocolate colored hair, and she pulled him closer to her. "Please!"

She felt him chuckle, and the sound was deep, husky, and delicious, and she knew instantly that she needed to hear that sound again. She gripped his hair tighter and rolled her hips upward; said male grunted in return.

"Slow down Sakura-Chan," the male grunted as he moved his hands to her hips to keep her from moving them. His voice came out as a purr, and Sakura had to suppress a shudder at the sinful sound. "We have all night."

Sakura let out a sound of displeasure, and the male just chuckled again. His hands slipped onto her back and his cold fingers set her back aflame. His fingers tickled upward and didn't pause until he had unhooked her bra.

Pulling her arms from the straps, Sakura let out a sigh as the cool air hit her breasts. It sent a wonderful tingling sensation down her body. When his mouth moved to cover one of her breasts, Sakura knew she couldn't handle it anymore.

She looked into his vanilla colored eyes and she couldn't help but yell out, "Neji please!"

That was her undoing, because the magical spell that she had been under disappeared. Instantly the pinkette's emerald eyes opened wide and she was back in her queen sized bed; the dream had been broken.

"What the fuck kind of dream… was that?"

XxxX

It was the morning after her dream, and Sakura could admit that she was definitely feeling the after effects. The dream had been so hot, and so damn real that she could almost still feel Neji's hands on her back, the feel of his hips against hers, the feel of his mouth on her throat... Even the thought of his hands on her body sent a shiver down her spine.

And Neji. The fact that she had dreamt about him was even more shocking than her having that kind of dream in the first place. Everyone in the Konoha twelve had grown, herself included, but she had never thought about Neji in that way.

And that's why she was in the position she was currently in: why the hell hadn't she thought about Neji that way before? The man from her dream had the perfect physique, his hair was long and soft, and his face was almost perfect. Adding in the fact that ever since he had lost to Naruto in the chuunin exams all those years ago, he had slowly started to open up and become a better person.

Now at nineteen, Neji Hyuga was the perfect bachelor, and Sakura was just noticing this. Sakura sighed as she watched the brunette haired male finish his rotation as he deflected another attack from Naruto.

Sakura was barely able to dodge the several kunai that were flung her way as her eyes stayed glued to the man from her dreams. Flipping backward and then jumping to her left, Sakura looked back to her opponent, and tried to ignore the vanilla eyed sex God that was fighting to her right.

"Come on Sakura!" Tenten called from a tree branch a few yards away from her. "I could have hit you on that last attack!"

"Sorry Tenten!" Sakura said with a shake of her head; she really couldn't help herself when the object of her thoughts was so close. It was so unfair. "I can't really stay focused."

"What's wrong?" Tenten asked while she leaped down from her tree branch. Walking a few feet forward, Sakura met Tenten in the middle of the training field.

"Um, it's kind of embarrassing…" Sakura said as her cheeks turned slightly red.

"Ohh!" Tenten said with a large grin. She took one of Sakura's hands and dragged her into a new clearing. "What is it? Is it juicy gossip? Have you told Ino yet?"

"No, I haven't told Ino yet, and it would probably be juicy gossip if it got around," Sakura said answering Tenten's questions. "And like I said before… It's kind of embarrassing."

"What is it?" Tenten asked as her smile got bigger. "I promise I won't tell anyone if you don't want me to. What is it about, at least?"

"Well, last night I had a dream," Sakura said with a dreamy sigh as her cheeks turned rosy again. "And it was about a guy…"

"OHHH SAKURA!" Tenten let out an excited yell. "Do I know who it is? Oh, I totally do, don't I? Is it Naruto? Sai? Shikamaru? Kiba? Please tell me you didn't have one about Lee?"

"Um, no to all those, actually," Sakura said with a slight smile. Of course, she wouldn't have a dream about Tenten's boyfriend she and Lee were perfect for each other. "It's a guy I've never really thought about before."

"Well you were getting distracted during training and the only people that were training beside us were Naruto and-!" Tenten's mouth opened wide as she finally thought it out. "YOU HAD A SEX DREAM ABOUT NEJI!"

"I'm right here Tenten," Neji said as he appeared in the clearing. "You didn't need to yell."

Sakura stood frozen beside Tenten; she couldn't even look to the coffee haired male without reminiscing on her dream. Turning slightly, Sakura's eyebrow rose in question to where her own teammate was.

"… He might be in need of some medical treatment," Neji said with a satisfied smirk. "Sometimes he needs to get his ass kicked just to put him in his place."

Sakura caught herself laughing before she could even think to stop, and she gave Neji a smile. "That's what I always say," Sakura said as she started to walk over to where Neji stood. "Do you have anything you'd like me to heal?"

"It's not that serious," Neji started to say, but as his white eyes seemingly tried to look anywhere other than her own emerald ones, Sakura couldn't stop herself from taking a step closer, getting into his person space; she knew that Naruto had to have left an injury on Neji's body, and Neji seemed to know she wouldn't take no for an answer. "My right ribs…"

"…Lift up your shirt please," Sakura said softly. She had seen many people shirtless before, but as Neji lifted up his shirt, Sakura took a sharp breath inward. His eight-pack was a mirror image to what she had only dreamt about the night before, and the sight was doing some insane things to her already raging hormones.

Bringing her hands upward, Sakura remembered to add medical jutsu only on instinct. Moving her hands to his right ribs, Sakura frowned when she felt three of the ribs were cracked. Looking upward, Sakura nearly lost her breath when she noticed Neji's vanilla eyes staring down into her own.

"This certainly seems serious," Sakura said as she allowed two of her healing fingers to lightly graze his skin. His response was to take in a quick breath of air. She shouldn't have done it; healing someone with chakra meant that she did not have to touch him to heal them… she just couldn't help it. The skin before her was so smooth, so unmarked and so wonderful that she just had to touch it.

Neji seemed to have no reply to her earlier statement, so Sakura quickly finished healing his ribs with only a few more wandering grazes of her fingers. He was just so tempting, and Sakura knew she couldn't stop her fingers from grazing him even if she tried.

After she was finished, Sakura took a step back while never leaving Neji's eyes. They were like an endless amount of nothingness, like a deep snowstorm of white, like a-.

A cough interrupted the staring session she was having with Neji, and Sakura mentally thanked Tenten. Looking back to the brunette headed girl, Sakura nodded before she started to head towards where Neji had started walking from. She knew this route would lead her to her teammate.

She really should have been more worried about him, but with the Kyuubi's chakra within him, Sakura knew she would never really have to worry about Naruto.

Finding the blond in a newly made crater, Sakura mentally congratulated Neji on kicking her teammate's ass. Most of the time, Naruto thought he was invincible; it was times like these that brought him back to reality.

"How ya feeling, Naruto?" Sakura asked with a grin as she stood at the top of the crater.

"Just heal me Sakura-Chan," she heard the male from below her groan. Stifling a laugh, Sakura jumped into the crater and began healing him. She started on the most serious wounds, those being the ones to his pride.

"It's okay Naruto-kun," Sakura said as her medical chakra began to seep into his system. "I'm sure Neji got in a cheap shot."

Even saying the dark haired male's name sent shivers up and down her back. It was weird, and Sakura didn't know how to feel about it. Once she had finished healing Naruto's wounds, she was able to feel two chakra signatures walking up behind them.

"Neji you rat bastard!" Naruto said while charging the Hyuga.

Neji rolled his eyes in response, and shoved Naruto to the left and continued walking. Sakura shook her head as Naruto barely missed the ground; those two together were trouble.

"Hey Sakura-channnnnnnnnnn," the delightedness in Tenten's tone worried the pinkette a great deal. Neji even looked concerned as he looked to Tenten, and then back to Sakura. "We weren't finished talking yettttttttttt."

"Oh?" Sakura said with a raised eyebrow. "Well um, it just so happens that I need to head to the hospital… I'm going to be late for work if I don't."

"Well then I'll walk you there," Tenten said with a cat-like grin. "We have much to discuss. Later boys!"

Sakura couldn't help but frown as she was dragged away from both Naruto and Neji by a cackling Tenten.

"Soooo your dream?!" Tenten began excitedly. "What was it like!?"

"Well… um… it was kind of intimate," Sakura said with a rosy tint. "And it was pleasant."

"You had a sex dream about my teammate and you call it pleasant?" Tenten asked with a bemused expression. "What the hell are you going to call it when you actually get to have sex with him?"

"Hey!" Sakura said while pointing a finger toward the brunette. "I know I just started to notice him, but even now I can see that Neji is way out of my league. He's just way too attractive to be with someone like me… And you know I'm not that type of girl Tenten."

"Oh Sakura," Tenten said with a shake of her head. "You don't know that. Lee thought I was way out of his league, and look at us now! We're as happy as can be, and the sex is really good; not just pleasant as you referred to it."

"You're a little ridiculous," Sakura said as she and Tenten arrived at the hospital. "And I have to go to work. Is Lee still gone on that mission? Do you want to do dinner?"

"Yes and Yes!" Tenten hummed as she waved bye to Sakura. Sakura didn't like the gleam that was in Tenten's eyes, but she didn't have enough time to worry about it. "I'll pick you up at seven!"

XxxX

But Tenten wasn't there at seven like she had said she was going to be… A tall, dark, and handsome Neji Hyuga stood before her; he definitely wasn't Tenten.

"Oh, hey Neji," Sakura said with a wave as her eyes still scanned the hallways for Tenten. "Do your ribs still hurt?"

"No Sakura," Neji said as he stepped away from the wall he had been leaning against. "You healed them up just fine earlier today… Tenten asked if I could stand in for her at dinner; she had some last minute errands to run, and I told her it was no problem. Is that okay with you, or would you rather I just walk you home?"

Oh Kami, Sakura thought as she looked at Neji who stood before her. How was she going to spend so much time with him without jumping him?

"Oh yeah," Sakura said with a nod after a few seconds; Neji had started to look a little worried. "That's fine with me. I just don't want you to have to come to dinner with me if you don't want to."

Neji took a few steps closer until he was only a foot away from Sakura. Sakura was surprised to find a different look in Neji's eyes; she had never seen that look before. His vanilla colored eyes grew a shade darker as they looked into her emerald. "I wouldn't agree to anything I didn't want to do, Sakura," Neji's tone had a slight husky quality to it that once again brought Sakura back to the dream she had the night before; she shivered slightly at his tone.

"Alright then," Sakura said with a nod as a blush dusted her cheeks. "Where did you want to do dinner?"

"I was hoping for something casual," Neji said as he held open the door for Sakura. She had to fight off a dreamy sigh as she passed the handsome man; chivalry was definitely not dead.

"That sounds wonderful," Sakura said as she and Neji stopped in front of the hospital. "I would suggest my place, but I haven't gotten groceries since Naruto raided my kitchen this morning."

Neji looked amused as he motioned for them to start walking. "Then we can have dinner at my apartment, if that is acceptable?"

Sakura thought about what other things Neji could do that would be acceptable for her, and she had to fight a blush that rose on her cheeks. When had she become such a pervert?!

"It sounds good to me," Sakura said as Neji offered her his elbow. Without thinking, Sakura slinked her arm through Neji's, and smiled when he tightened his hold.

"Wonderful," Neji said as his eyes met her own. "How was the hospital?"

"It was fine," Sakura said with a smile. She wasn't used to people actually wanting to hear about what she did, or how her day was. Naruto would ask, but it was only to make conversation, and she could tell that he wasn't really interested. Neji's eyes held interest and were focused solely on her; it made pink rise up on her cheeks again. "I had to heal a few genins' scratches from stray kunai, and an anbu squad; nothing too exciting. What did you do since I saw you?"

"I actually grabbed lunch with Naruto," Neji said with a smile as the two continued down the road. "We went to the barbeque place Chouji likes so much. After that I went home to do some paperwork until Tenten came to visit me. Before she left, she told me to tell you she wished we would have a 'pleasant' evening… whatever that meant."

Sakura choked on some saliva and she almost tripped when walking. The only thing that kept her upright had been Neji's hold on her arm, and for that she was grateful. Of course Tenten would bring up the dream she had the night before! Oh Kami, Sakura surely hoped Neji had no idea she had dreamed about him; that would make it more than awkward.

Righting herself, Sakura continued to follow Neji's lead as the two walked down the streets of Konoha. Sakura had never been to Neji's apartment before, and she had to take deep breaths to calm her budding excitement.

She actually wondered where he lived, and why he had moved out of the Hyuga compound in the first place. Being too curious to keep quiet, Sakura found herself asking Neji before she could stop herself. "Where is your apartment?" Sakura asked as the two continued down a very familiar street. Her apartment was only a few blocks away from here.

"It's a few blocks away from here," Neji told her casually as he nodded to an apartment building in the distance. It was a very nice apartment building, and one Sakura recognized easily; it was the one across from her own.

"How coincidental," Sakura mused as she followed Neji's lead. "My apartment building is actually across the street."

"Really now?" Neji asked in amusement and something else Sakura couldn't read. She decided not to question it.

"Yep," Sakura nodded. "All the way up on the sixth floor."

"Mine is on the seventh," Neji said with a knowing smile, and Sakura looked to him questioningly. It was almost like he had known that, but really, he couldn't have could he?

"Why did you end up moving out of the Hyuga compound?" Sakura asked as she tried to distract herself from the strong bicep that her arm held onto. Neji was in perfect physical condition, and even with his clothes on, Sakura could tell he would be beautiful naked.

Gasping slightly at where her mind went, Sakura tried to focus on what Neji was saying. The deep red color dusting her cheeks did not help her in this endeavor.

"I talked to Hiashi-sama about it after I became a jounin before Hinata-sama," Neji said as he held Sakura's arm tight as the two walked up the stairs of the apartment building. "I told him I needed some time and space away from the clan, and he respected my wishes enough to allow me my own apartment."

"That's amazing," Sakura said as he two continued their trek. Even if she had never been in this apartment building before, the walk up the stairs felt familiar. "I can't believe Hyuga-sama allowed that to happen."

"After what happened in the chuunin exams," Neji began to explain as they reached the fifth floor, "Hiashi-sama has given a lot of the branch family members more lee-way. We no longer have to service the main members at all times."

It seemed Neji's cage had seemed to open considerably since his time in the chuunin exams. The thought of it made Sakura's heart warm for him.

"That's truly amazing Neji," Sakura found herself saying, her eyes connecting with his own while the two continued to walk up the stairs. "Your father would have been proud of you for everything you have accomplished, even with all of the hurtles you had to jump over to get there."

The look in his eyes was pure warmth and it heated Sakura's entire body from head to toe. She felt his hand on her arm squeeze a little. "Thank you Sakura."

Sakura could only feel heat rise to her cheeks as she stared back into Neji's beautiful white orbs. "You're welcome Neji."

It didn't take the two but a few seconds longer before they were at his apartment door. Neji unhooked his hand from her arm to grab his keys to unlock the door. With the warmth of his body gone from her's, Sakura felt herself feeling much colder than she had been only a few minutes ago, and she wondered why his body heat was affecting her so much.

That stupid dream, Sakura thought to herself as Neji opened the door to allow her entry first, and stupid Tenten for setting this up. Sakura knew she shouldn't have trusted that weird gleam in the brunette's eyes as she departed from her earlier today.

Sakura tried to ignore that feeling of annoyance as she took off her ninja sandals next to Neji's door and waited patiently for him to lead her inside his apartment. From what she could see, his apartment was very similar to her own, and if it were, Sakura knew that the entry way would lead way into the living and dining room, which connected to the rest of the apartment.

Sakura wondered if his bedroom had a balcony like her own, and if he frequented it as much as she did, and if he did, how had she not noticed him more?

Sakura's musings were cut short as Neji appeared beside her; his shoes already placed neatly beside her own. His body briefly brushed up against her own as he passed by her to lead her inside. The little brush caused a tingle to run down Sakura's back, and Sakura had to suck in a breath to stop herself from over reacting.

How silly was she reacting to the casualest of touches from another person? How pathetic was she?

Taking in a deep breath, Sakura followed a few steps behind Neji, eyes certainly not appreciating his back side, but definitely appreciating the décor of his apartment.

"Does it look similar to your own?" Neji's voice distracted her from the lovely view she had been staring at. Sakura blinked for a second before realizing he had been talking about his apartment.

Her eyes immediately lifted up from- no she had not been staring at his ass damn it- to the apartment around her, and she was not surprised to find it very similar to her own.

"It does actually," Sakura said as her eyes scanned the comfortable looking couch in the living room to the small table that took up space in his dining room. "Does your bedroom have a balcony too?"

There was a small gleam in Neji's eyes that Sakura couldn't quite understand before his lips lifted up into a smirk. "There is," he said confidently. "Would you like to see it?"

"You don't have to show me it," Sakura found herself saying, not quite sure how to take him and his actions. "If it's through your bedroom-"

"It's really no trouble at all, Sakura," Neji said while his hand came to her shoulder's. Sakura felt her body ignite at the feeling of his body touching her own, and she tried her hardest not to quiver.

Sakura felt Neji's hand guide her through a hallway that was similar to her own and lead her to an open room. Looking inside, Sakura tried not to focus much on the white silken sheets of Neji's bed. For a second, she could imagine herself on those sheets, naked, with Neji's body thrusting into her giving her with everything he had.

Only Neji's clearing of his throat and the warm hand that was now resting on her lower back was able to bring her out of that leg quivering thought. Her cheeks immediately reddened, even though she knew Neji couldn't have known what she had been thinking.

"The balcony is just like mine," Sakura found herself saying as she took a few steps forward and opened the sliding glass door. Sakura took a step out onto the balcony and found her eyes drawn to her own apartment complex. She was unexpectedly surprised to be able to see her own balcony easily.

"You can actually see my apartment from here," Sakura said, turning just slightly to look into Neji's eyes. The man's eyes were focused intently on the apartment complex that was over her shoulder. Sakura found herself pointing using her finger. "It's down a level, the first one on the right."

"Is it?" Sakura felt Neji's body move until her back was nearly pressed against his front.

"And it looks like you could easily see directly into my apartment from here," Sakura found herself saying as she felt the heat radiating from Neji's chest. "I'd be more worried if you were Naruto or Kiba… they're more of the peeping Tom types."

"Hmm," Neji's body was so close, Sakura could almost feel the rumble of this sound in his chest. Kami, she would need to put space between the two of them soon, or the dream she had wasn't only going to be a dream. "So you trust I would have nobler intentions than the two of them."

Sakura found herself surprised again at his words and turned around to look into his eyes. There was a heat in the white colored orbs that hadn't been there before. "Do I have any reason not to trust your intentions?"

A gleaming smirk appeared on his lips and a darker look crossed Neji's eyes, and it ignited a deep warmth that pooled in Sakura's abdomen. Sakura tried to take a step back to put a little more distance between herself and this handsomely delicious man before her, but her back connected with the railing of the balcony.

Neji only had to take a step forward before she was close enough to feel his chest ghosting against her own and his breath lightly panting on her face. "No," Neji said, his lips coming to rest just above her ear, his voice a husky whisper. "But then again, I'm not the one who dreamed about you last night, am I?"

She felt so many different things flow through her body after that whisper, but shock and incredible arousal won out. "Ne-ji I-"

"Do you know how incredibly arousing it is to hear your name being panted by someone as incredibly attractive as you, Sakura?" His voice was still husky, and Sakura tried to prevent her eyes from rolling into the back of her head just on the sound alone.

Sakura didn't know the last time she had been this aroused. Neji had barely even touched her and already she felt like she was going to explode on his words alone.

"How far did we get in your dream Sakura?" Neji blew his hot breath against her ear and she shivered. "Were we still in the stages of foreplay- because that would last us a while I assure you, or had I stretched you with my di-"

"Neji, please," She was begging like she had in her dream, but she couldn't stop herself. Sakura had pressed her legs together at his words and had tried to distract herself by biting her lip. It wasn't helping; his words had only caused her arousal to grow, and just like she had felt in the dream, Sakura needed him inside of her.

"Answer me Sakura," His voice was a demand that left her body quivering. She was such a mess right now, and she knew her only chance at release was to answer him.

"We were clothed… at first," Sakura said, biting her lip again to try to distract her from Neji's hands that had started to leave ghost-like touches on her skin. "But grinding, and-"

Sakura's eyes rolled in the back of her head when Neji's dick grinded against her. Her mouth opened, though because of the amazing feeling, Sakura could form no word or sound.

"Like this?" How was it possible that Neji's voice was that sexy? Sakura let out a moan before she continued.

"And you were," Sakura breathed out as she felt how hard he was against her. "You were kissing my neck."

"Mm," Neji let out as his lips made instant contact with her neck, and Sakura felt herself tilting her head more to the side to give him better access. The dream held nothing on the hot wet lips that trailed up and down her neck. "What next?"

"Y-you," Sakura had to try to think past his actions, because he was so damn distracting. His hips stopped for a second, and Sakura felt herself whimpering at the lost of friction between them.

"What next, Sakura?" Neji asked again, his lips only a centimeter away from her neck.

"You ripped off my shirt," Sakura found that she was too aroused to be embarrassed. "And then my bra and yo-"

Sakura didn't get to finish as she heard Neji groan next to her neck before ripping off her shirt. Sakura could only run her hands through Neji's hair to keep herself grounded. Neji's nimble fingers traced a heated trail up her back until he unhooked her bra and threw it off her.

Sakura's chest being exposed to the cold night air only intensified the feelings Neji was stirring up inside of her. It only grew when she felt Neji's lips on her breast.

"Oh my Kami, NEJI!" She couldn't hold back as he continued to thrust his hips against her own while his mouth did wicked wicked things to her breast.

Sakura could feel his lips smirk as his tongue lapped her left nipple attentively.

"What next, Sakura?" Neji asked, his voice husky and wanting.

"I," She could hardly think, all she could do was feel. She was so focused on the feelings Neji's body was giving her that she could barely breath. "I woke up… Please don't sto-"

"Do you know what I would have done next?" Neji lifted his lips off her breast to nip at her neck. "I'd rip off that damned skirt of yours and I'd have a taste of your quivering lips that are wet just for me."

"Neji… pleaseee," She had never found the idea of someone going down on her as attractive as Neji made it sound. All Sakura knew was that she needed release, and Neji was the only one that could give it to her. "I want… I want you inside of me."

"All good things," Neji said, as his fingers splayed just below the elastic on her skirt, "Come to those who wait."

His fingers pulled down her skirt and soaking underwear in one tug, probably ripping both items in the process, and before Sakura could even blink, Neji's lips were pressed against her most sacred place.

"Nnnnnnejiiiiiiiiiiiii," Sakura was seeing stars as his tongue parted her lower lips until he found the little bundle of nerves that caused her to actually scream in pleasure.

"Make that noise for me again," Neji demanded, his hands holding her hips against the balcony railing. Sakura felt one of his hands move from her hip to meet near his mouth. His fingers teased her lower lips before one boldly entered her, Sakura letting out another noise at the entrance.

"Mm," Neji grunted in pleasure, his eyes making contact with Sakura's own as she tangled her hands into his hair. He added another finger, which made her walls clench and eyes roll into the back of her head. "After I tasted you, there'd be no way I couldn't have you… Are you ready?"

"Neji," Sakura had never felt more ready for anything her life. "Please. I need you inside of me."

She heard Neji grunt underneath her before he slid out from between her legs. He stood up in front of her and his lips immediately pressed against her own. Sakura moaned into his mouth; the idea of tasting herself on his lips was almost too much to even bare.

Sakura's hands flew down to the large bulge in his pants as Neji deepened the kiss; his tongue stroking against her own. Sakura felt Neji growl into the kiss, and she quickly slipped her hands under the elastic of his pants to feel his cock without the barrier of clothing.

He felt slick, hot, and amazingly huge in her hand, and the heat between her legs began to quiver in anticipation, however, she had other thoughts on her mind before she could remedy that.

Sakura pulled back a bit from Neji's kiss and bit her lip slightly.

"If… if you tasted me," Sakura said while nearly getting lost in Neji's endless white eyes. "Doesn't that mean I should get to taste you?"

Neji let out a groan before his lips latched onto her neck and he shifted his pants so that his member could spring free.

"Another time Sakura," Neji panted heavily against her neck, one of his hands coming to rest on his throbbing member, the other holding onto her hip. "I need to be inside of you now."

With just one hand, Neji lifted her up and guided her until she had wrapped her legs around his waist, she could feel his member twitching at her entrance. He didn't enter her immediately though, his eyes found hers before he plunged inside of her.

"OH MY KAMI," Sakura found herself screaming as he slammed into her hard. She had never felt so full before and she didn't have much of a chance to think before he was pulling out and slamming back into her.

"You're so fucking tight," Neji uncharacteristically swore as he attached his lips to her neck. The pace he was setting was grueling, but it was everything Sakura wanted and more.

She tightened her legs around Neji's hips before she started to thrust her hips back to meet his own. The new motion caused Neji's thrust to fill her deeper, stretch her wider. The action caused Sakura's mind to go blank for a second before she continued.

"Faster," Sakura breathed out, knowing that she was going to come undone very soon, but wanting it to happen even sooner. "Kami, Neji, faster, please."

Neji grunted against her before doing the exact opposite of what she wanted. Neji pulled out of her fully and Sakura could only let out a pathetic whimper at the loss.

It didn't last long though, as Neji untangled her legs from his waist and turned her body fully around. Sakura could only grab onto the railing with her hands as one of Neji's hands rested on her hips, the other tangling in her hair. It didn't take long before Neji had re-sheathed himself back inside of her, this time going even deeper with the new angle.

Sakura's eyes rolled into the back of her head when he found a specific spot that caused her to scream out again.

"Mm," Neji moaned against her throat as he leaned his body against her back. Sakura blinked for a second to try to focus on his voice instead of the incredible pleasure he was giving her. "I can't get enough of that noise."

The hand that had been wrapped in her hair trailed down her back and stopped just below her navel. Sakura felt her body twitch in anticipation as his fingers found her bundle of nerves and started to stroke it quickly.

"Ne-Neji," Sakura cried out, her body so close to release that it was almost painful. She had never been this aroused in her life, and Sakura knew that the orgasm that was building was bound to be mind-blowing. "I'm s-so close."

"Me too," Neji grunted in her ear as his thrusts came quicker. "Just. A bit. More."

It happened in a span of the next few seconds that the damn broke and Sakura started seeing stars. She wasn't in full control of her body as it quivered and shook, her inner walls clamping down like a vice on Neji's cock as she called out his name and orgasmed.

Neji didn't last much longer, the tightening of her walls being the final straw before he too found his climax, burying his cock deep inside her as he came.

It took Sakura a few minutes to come back to herself, and she assumed it had for Neji too, because he had still been panting into her shoulder when she came to.

"Mm," Sakura felt Neji hum against her shoulder as he pulled out of her. "Was that as good as your dream?"

"Even better," Sakura said as she turned around to look at Neji, feeling his white cum start to pool and drip down her leg. She hardly found it fair he was still mostly dressed, and she had no clothes on; she hadn't even been able to get his shirt off his body.

"Good," Neji said with a nod before pulling the pants that still rested against his thighs back up and over his hips. He seemed to look around for a second before shaking his head. "I seem to have ripped apart your clothing…"

"You have," Sakura said, her eyes taking in the scraps of her shirt here, and her torn skirt and underwear there. "I'll have to take your shirt in retaliation."

Neji merely smirked before taking his shirt off and giving it to her. Sakura put the article of clothing on, the long-sleeved shirt nearly drowning her, before her eyes swept up and down Neji's delicious torso.

"If you look at me like that," Sakura heard Neji slightly groan. "That shirt is going to come right back off."

Sakura could only smirk slightly before pulling on the hem of his shirt, feeling empowered by the look he was giving her. "I wouldn't mind that."

Sakura felt warmth and contentment when she awoke a few hours later. After she and Neji had finished thoroughly exploring each other's bodies, they had ended up falling into a deep, dreamless sleep. She had felt so sated after everything; Sakura had assumed she would be still sleeping long after the sun had risen the next day.

Looking to the window, Sakura was confused with the lack of sunshine that the sky currently showed. If the sun hadn't woken her up, then what-

Her stomach gurgling below her was enough of an answer. She and Neji had been so distracted last night that she they hadn't actually ate any dinner.

Taking in a deep breath, Sakura shifted her body slowly, making sure to not touch any of Neji's limbs that were sprawled over the bed. After the night they two had just had, Sakura thought that Neji deserved to sleep.

Leaning her body up and taking a few careful steps away from the bed, Sakura turned back around and watched as Neji continued to slumber on. Sakura had a hard time not wanting to run her hands over the strong pale back, especially with the way the moonlight hit it just so.

Shaking her head slightly, Sakura dipped down to grab the shirt she had borrowed before putting it back on and heading out of the bedroom. The shirt dipped down to land a few inches above her knees and fit her much like an oversized dress would; she would much rather wear the larger piece of soft clothing than walk around Neji's apartment naked.

The idea of her being comfortable enough to walk around his apartment naked brought a small blush to her cheeks, because, now that she that her mind was no longer clouded in her arousal, her thoughts were able to catch up with her.

What had… what had happened last night? Sakura thought, the redness on her cheeks growing a little darker at the thought. She had agreed to a casual dinner with Neji, but then it had morphed into something incredibly more pleasurable. If Tenten hadn't canceled their dinner plans, then this night would certainly not have happened. Had Tenten-

Wait. How had Neji known about her dream? The two had been a bit too busy to really talk about it. The idea of Tenten telling Neji about her "pleasant dream" made Sakura feel a bit insecure. Had the brunette somehow swayed Neji into fulfilling her dream's wants? Tenten knew it had been a while for Sakura; that the idea of her being interested in any male would be a surprise and should probably be encouraged. Had she…

Sakura sighed slightly as she checked Neji's fridge for food. Not finding anything that she was hungry for, she shifted before looking in the direction of her own apartment.

If Tenten had somehow convinced Neji to have mind-blowing sex with her, then he wouldn't blame her for going home before he woke up, would he? The idea that her friend had asked someone else to have sex with her was an embarrassing one, and one she didn't really want to face.

Biting her lip, Sakura walked out of the kitchen and headed to the front door; the clothes that she had worn here had appeared to be unsalvageable, so she had no issues with leaving them there. She was sure Neji would be more than able to throw them away when he woke up in the morning.

As Sakura pulled on her sandals and unlocked his door, Sakura figured she'd have to find a time to return Neji's shirt to him; a time, preferably, when they weren't training and Tenten and Naruto couldn't ask questions.

XxX

Once Sakura had gotten home and ate, sleep had continued to elude her. Instead of staying up and thinking on what had happened in the apartment complex across from her own, Sakura instead took a shower and headed into the hospital.

Her shift wasn't supposed to start until after lunch, but she knew the extra help, even in the early hours of the morning, would be appreciated.

She had been right when a team of anbu had come into the hospital in critical condition. Their combined surgeries had been enough to distract her for hours. It wasn't until she got out of her last surgery that she noticed how much time had passed.

"Sakura," Shizune said with a small frown as she looked to the clock. "What are you doing here? I was the head medic on call this morning."

"I couldn't sleep," Sakura said with a shrug, knowing she wasn't lying. "So I figured at least one of us should get to."

"But your shift isn't supposed to start until 12," Shizune said. "It's 7, Sakura… how long have you been here?"

"Just since 3," Sakura said as she walked over to the nurse's station to finish writing on the anbu's chart. The man had been taken out with a well-placed pressure tag in one of Orochimaru's lairs; he was lucky she had been able to salvage his leg.

"Well then you're going to be off for the next few hours, at least," Shizune said, taking the chart out of Sakura's hands with a shake of her head. "And don't fight me on this. I know your team has morning training in a half an hour with Team Gai; Kakashi was talking about it this morning before I left."

Sakura sighed slightly before nodding. She had been hoping to hide out in the hospital for the rest of the day as opposed to confronting what had happened the night before.

She still felt a bit betrayed and confused, though her body did tingle at the thought of Neji's hands on her again. She hadn't lied to him last night when she had told him he had been better than her dream; his body had made her's sing.

That didn't mean part of her didn't feel dirty though; she had never had a one-night stand before, and she wasn't quite sure how she was going to face Neji.

"I'm leaving," Sakura said as she started to head back toward her office. She would need to put her doctor's coat away and collect a few things before heading to the training grounds. If she was lucky, she'd arrive there early and convince Lee she needed a "youthful bout of taijutsu" and already be training by the time the rest of the teams arrived.

Nodding her head at her foolproof plan, Sakura walked into her office and nearly froze. On top of her desk, neatly folded, was the clothing that she had been wearing the night before. She took a few steps further into the room, and nearly froze again when she heard the door shut behind her.

"I-"

She couldn't get a word out before she felt a warm body press against her own. Already, his mouth was at her neck, and Sakura could only take a shuddering breath of air in before she closed her eyes and pressed her back more tightly against his front.

A small grunt was his response, and Sakura bit her lip from moaning out at the feeling of how good his body felt against her own.

"I was surprised when I woke up and you were no longer in my bed with me," Neji said against her neck, one of his hands trailing down her chest before gripping her hip tightly. "I had either assumed you had been called into the hospital, or you were trying to run away."

The grip on her hip tightened at the last word and Neji pressed his hardening erection against her backside. Sakura could only groan at the feeling, already knowing how his cock made her feel when it was pressed deep inside her.

"Surely…." Neji said, dipping his head to nip her neck. "You weren't trying to avoid me, especially not when your body reacts to mine like this."

Sakura felt arousal pooling around her again, her teeth biting on her lip hard enough to almost draw blood. She didn't know how to answer him, because of course her body was reacting this way and of course she wanted everything he was giving her. She just… she just didn't know if this was all his body wanted.

She had decided in between escaping from his apartment and trying to distract herself with surgeries, that no matter how amazing the sex was with Neji, she needed more than just sex. She deserved more than just sex.

Most of her friends had been in relationships for over a year now, and Sakura wanted that too. She wanted the dinners, the flirting, the romance along with the incredible sex. She wanted to have her cake and eat it too.

"N-neji," Sakura found her voice again, her mind trying to focus on what she wanted versus what her body wanted. "W-we should head to training."

Neji's body reacted instantly. He recoiled and gave her body the space her mind desperately craved, but her body didn't want. She could just barely prevent the whimper that wanted to fall from her lips at the loss of contact with his body.

"We should," Neji said, his tone had lost its husky quality, and when Sakura turned around, she had noticed his eyes were not on her own. It made her a little sad when his snow-like eyes would not meet her own, but she knew that the space between them was probably for the better. She couldn't think clearly when he was so close to her.

Throwing her white coat off and grabbing her kunai pouch that she had left on her desk, Sakura turned to head back out the door and was surprised to see Neji waiting for her. She had assumed after dismissing his advances he would just meet her at the training grounds; she had been wrong.

The two walked quietly toward their training ground, the tension surrounding the two of them so thick Sakura nearly choked on it. Was he angry at her dismissal? Her body had reacted to his the way he had wanted it to, but she knew better than to get distracted by his body and the delicious sensations it caused to her own.

It felt like the five-minute walk to the training ground took forever with the foreboding presence of Neji by her side, but she was grateful when the grounds came into view. That grateful feeling quickly diminished at seeing everyone at the training ground waiting for the two of them; it seemed the talk and walk to the training grounds had taken longer than she had wanted.

"We're going to do bracket spars this morning as our dear sweet Lee is still on his mission and Sai has been detained elsewhere," Sakura heard Gai's voice as she and Neji grew closer. "Someone on my team versus someone on Kakashi's team. We've both made bets as to who is going to win and-"

Sakura tried to ignore Tenten's brown eyes as they swept over her form, the concern and excitement coming out of the brown colors disarming her.

"I'll spar against Sakura-Chan first!" Tenten called over her shoulder while she tugged the pinkette along. Sakura didn't know whether she should be grateful the brunette was taking her away from having to fight against Neji, or not, because Sakura still didn't want to have to talk to her either.

"How did dinner go last night?" Tenten had barely been able to contain her question before the two had arrived in their typical clearing for their matches. Sakura grabbed her fingerless gloves from her kunai pouch and put them on her hands before flexing and moving forward.

"He fucked me and then I left," Sakura found herself spitting out as she charged charka into her fists. Maybe smashing up the training ground would help alleviate the feeling of resentment and bitterness that filled her body. "Thanks for telling him about my dream by the way… Definitely helped."

"Sakura what are you-"

She didn't let Tenten continue as she charged, slamming her fist to the ground and causing the brunette to leap backwards and away from Sakura's attack. Sakura continued forward, her fists charged with charka as she left craters and broken earth in her wake.

It felt so good to relieve the pent-up stress that she had been feeling ever since she had thought about Tenten telling Neji about her dream. She put all her strength into the next punch as Tenten landed on a surrounding tree. The resounding crack of her fist against the tree was definitely rewarding but watching Tenten's surprised face was just as rewarding.

"Sakura," Tenten panted out as she continued to try to dodge Sakura's fists. Sakura knew better than to be distracted by the brunette; there was another reason as to why she was so relentlessly attacking her other than just lightening her frustration. Sakura was sure as soon as she stopped her attacks, Tenten would capitalize on it and summon her weapons from one of the scrolls on her pouch. Sakura knew better than to allow her the time to do that.

As Sakura dropped the chakra from her fists to quickly weave hand signs, she watched as the earth jutsu she sent toward Tenten connected with a fierceness she hadn't meant to use.

Sakura felt a breath of relief at seeing Tenten substituting herself with a nearby log before her attack could connect. Sakura took a step back from Tenten and tried to calm down her ragging emotions; she didn't want to hurt her friend even if her friend's actions hurt her.

"Sakura," Tenten tried again, and Sakura found herself making eye contact with the brunette this time. "What are you talking about? You and Neji just had sex? He knew about your dream?"

It was the complete surprise on her friend's face that caused Sakura's rage to quell more; Sakura knew Tenten was a good actress, but she'd never lie to Sakura so blatantly. "You didn't tell him?"

"Oh Kami," Sakura watched as Tenten shook her head quickly. "I'd never do that to you. And you two having sex was never my intention when I sent him to have dinner with you. I never thought-"

"You had sex Sakura-Chan!?" Naruto's bellowing voice caused Sakura to flinch. Her eyes darted to the four males that had come to stand to the side of their clearing. Sakura had been so distracted with trying to release her frustrations that she hadn't even sensed them. "Who took advantage of you and-"

"It doesn't matter who took advantage of me, Naruto," Sakura said, her emerald eyes refusing to land on Neji's form. From the marks and bruises on Naruto's face, Sakura could only assume that Naruto had lost their spar. "It was just sex."

"But Sakura-Chan who-"

"I forfeit," Sakura said as she looked across the clearing toward Tenten. She didn't care if she brought "dishonor" on to Kakashi by having both members of Team Seven lose against Team Gai members; she'd rather spar against Naruto and deal with his questions than having her body be so close to Neji's own at the moment.

The silence deafened the clearing for a moment before Naruto spoke. "But I wanted to fight against you Sakura-Chan," Naruto's frown was set deep within his features, and Sakura realized her mistake the second he said that sentence.

Apparently, even with the bruises that were all over Naruto's face, the blond had beat Neji. Her plan had backfired terribly.

"I just-"

"I'm going to kick your ass Naruto!" Tenten called, breaking up the tension that had seemed to settle in the clearing again and distracting all parties. "Kakashi-senpai and Gai-sensei, I'm going to need you two to act as judges so Naruto doesn't cheat like I'm sure he did against Neji."

"I did not cheat against that Teme!" Naruto ragged, thoroughly distracted as Tenten lead the three males back to the clearing they had just come from. Sakura didn't know whether to be grateful for Tenten's distraction or feel anxious at being left with Neji alone again.

It took Sakura a second before she was able to look up at Neji, who stood across the clearing from her. She held her breath when she saw his tense shoulders and felt the internal rage that reside in him.

"Took advantage of you," she felt Neji's rage across the clearing, and she tried to ignore it. She tried to ignore how his anger made her feel like she had done something wrong. She didn't know why she had been so angry at the thought of him just wanting to fuck her and then leave her; she had been a willing participant in what had happened between the two of them. "You know you wanted last night to happen just as much as I did."

"Yes," Sakura's breath raged out as chakra coated her hands again. She was trying to ignore the guilt that riddled her and focus on the bitterness that still swelled inside of her. She was worth more than just a good one-night fuck. "Do you want me to tell you how good you felt inside of me?"

Sakura saw Neji flinch before she sprinted forward, watching as Neji activated his byakugan on instinct and dodged the punch she sent toward his chest.

"Do you want me to tell you how when you sheathed yourself inside of me for the first-time last night I nearly came," she had no idea what she was doing. Her body and mind were doing too many conflicting things at once and she didn't understand. The words and punches just kept coming. "Or do you want me to tell you how much I wanted to put you in my mouth and choke on your-"

"Sakura," Neji grunted in front of her as her fist connected with his stomach. It seemed her words had distracted him enough to land a blow. Before he could do anything else, Sakura launched herself forward, tackling Neji's body to the ground and straddling his hips. She could already feel how her words were affecting him and her body tingled in response.

This was the opposite of what she had wanted when she had arrived at the training ground. She had wanted to avoid him all together but having his body this close was causing arousal to swell up inside her at an incredible rate, and Sakura knew that she wouldn't be able to stop herself if she didn't get a hold on it.

"Maybe I can take advantage of you now, alleviate my arousal," Sakura said, leaning low to whisper in his ear, and she felt him stiffen more against her. She reflexively rolled her hips against his before hearing him groan against her. "That's all last night was, right? Alleviating arousal?"

"S-Sakura," Neji was panting as her hips rolled against his own. She had to know. She had to know what his intentions had been last night, and she had to know now. "Last night wasn't-"

"Mm," Sakura moaned as she shifted her body against his. His throbbing member hit her in a spot that left her mind reeling. "It was sex Neji. There was no dinner, there was no date, there was just sex."

"This morning," Neji panted, desperately trying to communicate with her, though her body didn't let him. She sped up her hips and moaned at the sensation it caused. "S-sakura I w-wanted-"

"Wanted me, right?" Sakura said, blowing cool air in his ear before biting her lip. "This is what you wanted to do to me, right? Ravish me again? Well now's your chance."

Sakura felt Neji grab her shoulders before he rolled them and switched positions with her. Sakura tried to switch back the positions with a thrust of her hips, but Neji's hips held her down tightly.

"Sakura," Neji said after taking a deep breath. "You have no idea how much I want to ravish you right now, but that's not all I want to do. I want to-"

"I told you I'd kick your ass Naruto," Tenten's voice carried into the clearing, and Sakura saw Neji flinch before retreating away from her body. Sakura was just starting to stand as she watched Naruto and Tenten re-emerge; had time really gone by that quickly?

"You tricked me," Naruto was sulking, and Sakura had to sigh in relief; the two obviously hadn't seen anything. "Are you two done here?"

"… For now," Neji said with a slight nod as he took a few steps back. "Does Gai-sensei and Kakashi-san want us to split up for the remainder of our session?"

"They said they wanted the teams to work a bit more on their dynamics," Tenten said with a shrug, her eyes darting between Neji and Sakura. "So we'll stay here while Gai-sensei comes to us…"

Sakura found herself nodding as she followed a bit behind Naruto. Being with Neji had not cleared anything up for her and had only caused her to become more frustrated.

"Sakura!" Tenten's voice caused her to pause and turn around to look back at her friend. She almost froze at the look Neji was sending her; why did his face look so upset? "I'll walk you to the hospital after the sessions."

"Okay!" Sakura found herself saying, turning back around and desperately trying to ignore the look Neji had given her.

XxX

Sakura was quiet as she and Tenten walked back to the hospital. She knew Tenten had seen the look Neji had sent her before she left, and Sakura didn't know what to make of it.

"You know he doesn't do stuff like he did last night with just anyone, right?" Sakura heard Tenten, and after a brief moment of silence she continued. "I don't think Neji's ever actually done that with anyone."

"… Well there's first time for everything, right?" Sakura found herself asking, though her words didn't hold the conviction she wanted, especially not after the look he had sent her.

"I think he likes you Sakura," Tenten said while shaking her head. "He's always kind of held a shine to you, especially after you helped heal Hanabi a few years back."

Sakura had remembered when Hanabi's genin team had been attacked by a rogue nin and they had been afraid she was not going to make it. Sakura had spent the night using up almost all her chakra to keep Hanabi alive.

Sakura had remembered how grateful Hiashi and Hinata had been but had not remembered Neji being there. Why had she not seen him?

"He was on a mission," Tenten said, seeing the questioning look in Sakura's eyes. "And raced back once he heard about Hanabi. They're more like siblings than cousins, really."

"I never thought he was more fond of me than anyone else," Sakura said shrugging slightly. "I still don't really think he's-"

"Did you see the look on his face Sakura?" Tenten asked after a moment. "That was the look of a man who has a lot to say but hasn't been able to say it. Have you guys been able to talk after last night?"

"Not really," Sakura found herself speaking honestly. "At least he hasn't really had a chance to."

"You need to talk to him," Tenten said, nodding her head and already making the decision for her. "Right after you leave from the hospital tonight. The longer you drag this along the more hurt and confused the two of you will be."

"Tenten I don't think-"

"Just do it Sakura," Tenten said, leaving her at the entrance of the hospital. "You don't know how Neji's feeling about things until you actually ask him."

XxX

After the talk with Tenten, Sakura had decided after her hospital shift the only thing she could do was to actually go see Neji and talk to him. Had she jumped to conclusions when she had woken up this morning? Neji hadn't led her to believe anything differently, but Sakura definitely wanted Tenten to be right about this.

Sakura hadn't given Neji a thought before her dream two nights ago, but now he was all she could think about. How amazing of a shinobi he was, how kind of a human being he was, how careful and considerate he could be. Surely, these were not the actions of a playboy that only wanted to sleep with her for a night and leave her?

All Sakura could do was clench the shirt that was in her hand before she knocked on his apartment door. He had been nice enough to patch up and deliver her clothes to her, so she felt that she should deliver his shirt back to him, even after their tension-filled last meeting.

She had almost been hoping he hadn't been home and that she could leave his shirt for him by his door step, but hearing the shuffling of feet inside heading toward the door was enough for her to know that wouldn't be the case.

"Sakura," Neji appeared to be surprised; obviously he hadn't expected to see her so soon after the two had departed at training earlier in the day.

"I… I wanted to deliver your shirt back," Sakura said while reaching out to give him his shirt. He seemed to ignore the offer, and instead slid to the side of the door, leaving enough space for her to get through and enter the apartment.

Against her better judgement, Sakura entered his apartment kicking her shoes off before hearing the door close behind her. She walked slowly into his apartment as she headed toward the living room.

Sakura couldn't prevent her eyes from heading to the dining room table in the corner, noticing that he had two place settings set up. "If you're expecting company, I really should get going," Sakura was surprised to find herself feeling both a bit bitter and angry at the idea that he was going to have company over and actually feed them dinner. Would he take his dinner guest to look at his balcony too, and then fuck them senseless like he had her?

"I was going to-"

"I wouldn't want to get in the way of you and your date," Sakura found herself saying as she set the shirt down on his table. She couldn't understand the irrational anger that was swelling inside of her. Why did the idea of him having someone else over, the idea of him possibly sleeping with someone else causing so much frustration to well up inside of her? "You must like her enough to feed her before ravaging her…"

"Are you kidding Sakura?" Neji's voice was the angriest she had heard it in a while. "You think I don't like you? You think I'd do this with just anyone?"

"How am I supposed to know?" Sakura found herself questioning, taking a step back as his body took one forward. "Last night was amazing, but that doesn't mean it meant more than just sex. You have never showed interest in me before… I can only assume that last night you only wanted me for my body and-"

"I was the one to convince Gai that we should train with your team," Neji panted, his hot breaths causing a strange feeling of warmth to swell up in Sakura's abdomen. "And I was the one who tricked Kakashi into allowing Gai to beat him so he'd actually allow it… I've wanted you for almost a year now."

"Wanting my body and wanting me are two very different-"

His body crashing against her own caused her to take in a deep breath of air through her nose. His mouth was pressing against her's, nipping, sucking, licking, kissing and causing the heat in Sakura's stomach to increase.

"I don't just want your body Sakura," Neji said, his lips trailing off to leave open mouth kisses down her neck. Sakura could only moan against him at the feelings he was stirring in her body. "I want you and all that comes with you.

"I want late night dinners with you after a late shift at the hospital so I know you have to eaten," Neji's lips had paused in their trail down her throat so he could make eye contact with her. "I want one on one training sessions with you so I know that you can protect yourself and continue to grow stronger. I want date nights out with you and our friends so I can show off that you're mine and you belong to me. I want-"

"Take me," Sakura found herself breathing out, turned on beyond belief by his words. She didn't think a confession as heartfelt and passionate as that would ever come out of Neji Hyuga's lips, but it had, and it had only been for her. "If you want me, then take me."

"Sakura," Neji groaned before he pressed his lips against her own. She moved her arms to his shoulder's before pulling him closer; she could only shiver at her body's need to be pressed up against his. "N-not now."

"What?" Sakura breathed out, feeling completely aroused and mildly confused. "Why not?"

"The food," Neji all but groaned.

Sakura felt a little insecure as she looked above at the man she was growing incredibly fond of, and remembered the table settings she had noticed when she first walked in. "I'm interrupting dinner, aren't I?"

She felt Neji's smug smirk in her shoulder before he shook his head, and her confusion only grew. "I was going to invite you over for dinner tonight; the food in the oven is nearly done. I wanted to make sure everything was ready before you came over, though, because your body and your words have a way of distracting me."

Sakura felt her body swell in satisfaction before she snuggled in deeper into Neji's embrace. This had definitely turned out better than any dream she had ever had before, especially if Neji knew how to cook.
