A Mission for Two
By angelady
Chapter One – Preparations
"Why'd Kakashi-sensei call me in the middle of the night?" asked Sakura to herself as she sat in the middle of the training grounds. She wore her usual red dress and black shorts she wears for missions except it was a few sizes bigger now she's 15.
She heard a few rustles in the wind, so she turned her head around to the source of the noise. She got her kunai and prepared herself for any confrontation.
A figure came out from the treetops.
It was…Sasuke. He was wearing his usual shirt with the high collar and his shorts.
Sakura sighed out of relief. It's just Sasuke. No need to worry. She told herself.
"What are YOU doing here?" asked Sasuke as he leaned on a tree nearby, emphasizing you.
"Well, if you must know, I was called by Kakashi. How about you?" replied Sakura as she faced Sasuke.
"Same," replied Sasuke.
Anyway…now they're both 15, same as Naruto, Hinata, blah, blah, blah…(all of them okay.) And now, Sasuke and Sakura are now jounin, the same as everyone (must I explain?) As jounins, they get to become teams of two instead of three. And of course, Sakura was paired up with Sasuke. Naruto with Hinata. Neji with Tenten. Ino with Shikamaru. And of course other people paired up with either a girl or a boy.
Sakura now specializes in medicine justu while Sasuke specializes in combat justus and together they make the perfect team!
Sakura found herself getting drowsy. Well, who wouldn't? She was awake in the middle of the night waiting of her wonderful teacher that is always late. She was swaying from one side to another. Her head was feeling slightly heavy. Then all she remembered was black.
Sasuke was just leaning on a tree, stifling a yawn. Even though he has to be emotionless and stoic doesn't mean he can't act like a human and feel tired being woken up in the middle of the night waiting for their sensei to come.
THUD.
Sasuke looked for the source of it. It was Sakura lying on the ground. He seemed to be curious on why she was lying on the cold hard ground.
Why don't you check on her? Said a voice in his head.
Who are you? And what are you doing in my head? Shouted Sasuke in his mind.
I'm you! The side you tried to forget! I'm your sensitive and kind side you tried to leave behind!
What the--! I left that part of me a long time ago!
But you're wrong. I'm here and now back to teach you some manners!
What!
Try to deny me later! Now, you have a girl to see!
What do you mean?
Just go and check on her, will ya! Check Sakura if she's fine!
Why should I do that! She's just an annoying fangirl here to worship me!
She's your teammate! Now go!
Where did you come from anyway? I know I dumped you at my old house along with my feelings and stuff!
Well, I'm back and here along with your wonderful feelings that you tried to abandon!
Hm…
Just go! Then, without his consent, his body started to act on its own. His feet slowly but surely went to Sakura.
What the! He inwardly growled at himself. He pulled Sakura on his lap and put the back of his hand on her forehead.
"She's hot," he told himself and slightly frowned.
What do you mean by 'She's hot'? He heard a voice. He groaned. It's that voice again.
Hey! I'm talking to you!
What are you talking about!
What do you mean by 'She's hot'?
She has a fever, idiot! What else do I mean?
Don't call me an idiot! You threw me and the rest of you away! And to answer you're question, just look at her!
He looked at her face then her whole body. Her body has grown more…mature.
Her hair was silky and soft, he discovered it by stroking its locks. Her face shows calmness and maturity. Her breasts have well, grown. She's slim but not very thin. And she has long and slender legs. Not to mention that her skin is soft and creamy to his touch.
Wait a minute. How do I know that her skin is soft and creamy? He suddenly checked on what he's doing.
He was lightly stroking her face. Dammit! Then he felt heat rising to his cheeks. Dammit!
POP.
Kakashi appeared on a tree not that far from the training grounds. He was jumping from tree to tree while thinking of a new excuse to be late, as always.
Then he saw his two previous pupils, Sasuke and Sakura in the middle of the training grounds in the middle of the night. He grinned under his mask at what he sees.
Sasuke has put Sakura's head on his laps as he strokes her face with his hands and admired her body, too. And no to forget, he blushed too!
"I wonder what he's going to do next?" Kakashi slyly whispered as he continued to watch them.
Dammit! Kakashi must not see her and me like this!
Then he slowly picked her up and carried her, bridal style, in his arms and took her to a nearby bush. Kakashi silently followed with his eyes, grinning like a maniac.
There, Sasuke put her down slowly. Then brought out his blue handkerchief and his water jug and he wet his handkerchief and put it on her forehead.
He slightly smiled at the angelic look on Sakura's face as she slept.
Come on! Angelic face! My influence on you is taking effect! Sasuke growled softly at the voice.
Sakura stirred. Her eyes were slightly opened as she moaned. She saw Sasuke looking at her. She blushed at the sight of him but it became unnoticed as she had a fever.
"Sasuke?" she said softly.
"Stay here. You have a fever," he said as he put his pointing finger on her lips.
Soft? Aren't they?
"But…" she tried to protest but he shook his head.
"I'll tell you everything that will happen, okay?" he said softly with concern in his voice, Sakura pointed out. She slightly smiled at that thought.
"Go to sleep," he said as his hand covered her eyes.
She nodded and went to sleep.
Sasuke got up and went back to the training grounds, after he stole one more look at Sakura.
"Haha! They are perfect for each other!" Kakashi said to himself as he watched at everything that took place.
Sasuke went back on leaning on a tree until Kakashi came.
"Cut to the chase on why I'm here in the middle of the night," Sasuke said before Kakashi started to reason.
"Wait! Where's Sakura?" asked Kakashi.
"She's not here," replied Sasuke in his emotionless state as if he didn't know what happened to her.
"Well, then I guess you'll take the liberty to tell her?" said Kakashi.
"Yeah, whatever. What's the mission about anyway?"
"You are to assassinate a guy named Tommy in the town of Hidden Fire. He has already victimized many young ladies…" Kakashi started.
Gr…if he victimizes my Sakura…
Your Sakura, huh?
"…You are to not expose your identities as ninjas, okay? You guys have to leave as soon as possible," Kakashi finished.
"Hm."
"Well, that's all. Goodnight," Kakashi said as he disappeared.
As soon as Kakashi left, Sasuke went to check on Sakura.
Her eyes were slightly opened but her vision's blurry.
"You heard everything Kakashi said?" asked Sasuke as he sat beside her. She nodded. "Well, I don't have to tell you then."
"Sasuke," she said softly. Sasuke then focused all his attention on her. "Can you bring me home? I can't move."
"Fine," he replied as he slowly lifted her from the ground. He put his left arm under her legs and his right under her back. Sakura wrapped her arms around his neck.
Then she slowly moved up and kissed him on his cheek. "Thanks," said Sakura as she went back to sleeping.
Sasuke stood there for a moment then went back in carrying Sakura.
Good, huh? You liked that. Sasuke growled but took no notice to the voice. He only intends to bring Sakura to her house.
As soon as Sasuke reached her house, he opened the door (with difficulty) and went to her bedroom.
There he laid her down on her bed and tucked her in. Then he smiled at her and left to his house.
AN: Hi! Um… I hope you like it. I'll put more sasusaku fluff if you'll like and I'll definitely add more chappies and if you want I'll put either... NejiTenten/NaruHina/ShikaIno chappies too if you like. Remember, I won't consider you're vote if you don't include a review.
Well, don't forget to leave a review!
