Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto nor the plot of Wedding Date.

I just watched the movie again just last month, always loved it and realized that I will NOT make Sasuke and Shikamaru OOC. I mean, come on, as much as I love the cute groom, Shikamaru is very intelligent enough to know the situation. So I'll be adding my own terrible twists and lies, but still among the lines of the Wedding Date, of course. However only large memorable scenes will be included and I'll add scenes of my own. Hmmm, warning: This chapter may be a bit rushed. I'm sorry, but I don't know what else to write because I found another obsession!

Enjoy


Chapter 5

Thy beauty

If beauty were time, you'd be eternal


Sakura quickly jumped off the bed, when she realized that arms were encircled around her small waist. She shrieked loudly, "There was a reason why I put pillows in-between us!" But all her partner did was roll over to his back and stretched, clad in nothing but his dark blue boxers. Red hues formed on her cheeks when she caught herself starting at him, "Damn it, Uchiha." The pink-haired beauty walked towards his edge and started tugging the blanket, "Heavy bastard," she muttered under her breath when to no avail she wasn't able to it.

She tried tugging again, using all her weight leaning onto one side, gritting her teeth, "You...have…to move…!!" Then he promptly rolled onto his stomach and Sakura collapsed against the floor with his scent all over the blanket that hovered over her. She huffed and tried freeing herself against her soft sheets. This better be worth it, she though grimly. When Sakura finally untangled herself, she found the handsome devil watching her with a perfectly raised eyebrow with an amused expression.

"Good morning," he greeted in his deep, velvet voice. Sakura ignored the shiver that went down her spine. She squared her shoulders and tried to regain what's left of her dignity and uttered her reply. She quickly grabbed her clothes to wear and slammed the door to the bathroom.

Sasuke released a deep breathe, rolled over, and stood up, stretching his aching muscles. He rubbed his cheek where she had slapped him when he demonstrated his skills upon her last night. He shook his head and ran a hand through his black tresses; 'she asks too many damn questions.' The Uchiha walked over to his set of clothes and immediately dressed with a loose black shirt and dark blue khakis. He turned around to already find his lady walk out of the bathroom, clad in black shorts that reached 6 inches above her knees and a see-through white, sleeveless top with a smaller jacket over it, that still exposed her stomach through the cotton shirt.

The scent of strawberry immediately hit his senses when she walked by him, "Huh, so I guess you're the only one who can pull off the casual yet elegant look?"

He smirked, "And you're the only one who can look gorgeous but sexy at the same time."

He saw her froze mid-day while brushing her hair then turn with a haughty smirk of her own, "I forgot that this is what you do."

He shrugged, "Anything to please my lady."

She grinned, "Sure, sure." Sakura put down her comb and decided what to do with her pink hair. Deciding to leave it down, she quickly grabbed her cap that pulled it atop her head and turned towards him, extending her hand to him, "Ready to go, my sexy rouge?"

He stared at her a bit before walking towards her, ignoring her hand and swooped her by the waist and easily carried her over his shoulder, hiding his smirk when she laughed aloud and pounded her fists on his back, "Damn it, Sasuke, my ass is in the air!"

"Only for me to enjoy."

She snorted, "Not for long when we go out that door!" Sakura then felt his large hand on her back and quickly switched her to his arms, bridal style. She gave him a look, in which he ignored with a stoic look of his own, nonchalant. "You know what we're going to do today?"

"…"

"Well, Ino suggested we— wait! Go out the kitchen door! Good, anyways, we're going to have a small reunion party with the family. Remember what I told you last night, Sasuke. Aki's going to be there, so make sure to give your all!"

"…."

"Sasuke?"

"Hn."

"Fine, fine. I'm sorry, that I slapped you last night. Hey, didn't you say that I'm supposed to tell you when to make the moves or I'll do that and pay you how much for that?"

"…Are you a virgin?"

She lightly punched his jaw, "Jackass, that's a personal question." Sakura reached over to open door when the screaming began—.

"Hey, old man! Get out of there!!"

"I don't look a day over 40, sweetie!"

"Argh! Put down that dirty book, Kakashi! Hey, Naruto, don't you dare touch—I told you not to lose the balls, pick them up! You there-!"

"Hey, that's mine!"

"Shikamaru!"

Sakura sighed, rolling her eyes and Sasuke lowered her onto the ground, raising a brow at the scene. He followed her towards the screaming girls, "Ino…Ino, calm down!"

The said bride-to-be turned sharply, her hat nearly colliding with her own, "Oh, Sakura! Here you are, we're ready to play baseball, but there's kind of a fight with the teams you, see…Naruto wants Hinata on his team while Kakashi wants Naruto but also Lee, but Naruto disagree saying-"

"Oh, hell no!"

"-And Kiba wants Hinata as well, but Naruto won't be on Kiba's team because if Tenten isn't there, then he won't. And Tenten says that she'll be here for the bachelor party but is caught with traffic! The old man-"

"Hush, Ino. Don't be so stressed, it's bad for your complexion. I'll handle it." The pink beauty assured, Ino looked relieved and quickly back away with the girls. She threw Sasuke a smirk and walked over to tap Aki's shoulder. Giving him a sweet smile, savoring the way his eyes ran down her body and to her face, "Hey, there. Would you mind if I borrowed that bat?"

He smiled, "Sure."

She caught it with one arm and motioned Sasuke to throw a ball to her, which he did perfectly and she hit it in a narrow passage, flying past the yelling men's face and clothes that they quickly shut their mouths when they saw her on the field with a bat on her shoulder. "Oh shit."

"Now, listen boys. How about girls against boys?"

Kiba grinned, "We're game. But Hinata is with us."

She looked over her shoulder and saw a timid nod, "That's fine. As long I keep Sasuke."

A blonde opened his mouth to disagree, narrowing his eyes at her current boyfriend but Naruto's hand quickly covered it, "Then bring it on, Sakura!"

0000000000000000000000000

Ino giggled delighted when she winked at the pitcher, Shikamaru, and readied her position, slightly distracting him. He groaned, "…Woman."

"That's what I am, baby."

The girls on the sideline catcalled and further distracting him when one of the guys slapped his back heavily, grinning widely. Shikamaru rolled his eyes and carelessly threw the ball at her. She swung and it furiously rolled passed him, barely above the ground while she quickly ran towards first base. "Hey!" Naruto protested, "You can't use your looks!"

She stuck her tongue out, "Hyprocite, you did that to Hinata!"

Aki placed a hand on his shoulder and the genius replied with a nod and switched places. Sasuke narrowed his eyes at this when he realized who the next batter was.

"Bring it, Uchiha."

Sakura laughed with others when he smiled devilishly at her and was pushed forward towards him. Stealing a quick glance at the pitcher, satisfied he was watching with narrowed eyes; she wrapped one arm around Sasuke's neck and she tiptoed to his height and breathed against his ear, "Make sure you lose this one." He responded by gliding his hand up and down her back before pulling away, leaving her breathless for a while. The girls started giving goo-goo eyes at Sakura before she silenced them with a look before bursting out laughing again.

She hastily glanced, nervous, at him. Sakura shivered at the contact, unsure suddenly and found his dark orbs watching her before he grabbed the bat with one hand, swinging it around with one hand before taking position. With a stoic look, he nodded.

Aki switched his hat at side and rubbing his gloved hand with the ball, concentrating on a difficult angle. He slid one foot on the sandy ground and drew his hand away from the other.

"Wow…can you, like, feel the sexual tension between those two?"

"That's hot."

Sakura slapped Ino and Temari's head.

Then the blonde threw the ball and the raven-haired swung back and hit a-

"Fucking homerun!"

He grinned wolfishly at Sakura before jogging around the bases and two girls finished before him and scored the winning points. They cheered and jumped in joy while Aki threw his hat to the ground, growling.

Sakura made her way to Sasuke, welcoming him with a hug, hissing, "Y-you didn't listen to me!"

He lifted her chin with one hand and gestured to the other side of the field to see Aki fuming silently. She grinned at Sasuke and gave him a quick kiss on the lips before replacing her lips with a bottle of water. His beautiful partner gave him a wink before pulling away. He chugged down the water to his dry throat before reaching for Sakura, who was surprised when his lips were against hers. He licked her bottom lip, coaxing her lips to open.

When she responded to him, she was surprised to feel cool water pass through his mouth down to her throat. She had no choice but to swallow the water, his tongue gently massaging hers and her knees buckled. Sakura grasped the back of his head, running it through his hair; frantically moving her lips against her devilishly handsome familiar. The warm water slid down to both their chins when the water was exchanged.

Sakura pulled back slightly, gasping before both his hands captured her face gently were enveloped with his moist lips enveloped hers again in the ancient dance of their tongues. He finally drew back before bending downwards of her lips, licking the water that traveled down her chin. Sasuke stood his full height again, wiping the water on his chin with the back of his large hand.

He was watching her.

Sakura, breathless, was left light-headed.

Then the cheers erupted.

His eyes sent her a silent message, triumph dancing in his eyes with a smug look.

Exchange of tongues in front of a large audience...

done.

She growled softly.


"He wasn't pleased, was he?" Sakura asked with a bounce in each step. Sasuke, walking with large strides, just nodded; his hands pocketed. She laughed, hurrying their paces up the stairs. She quickly threw off her top, and untied her shoes. He watched her with a silent gaze as she wore her red, lacy bra; her stomach flat, waist curved and hips full. He blinked and looked away, she wasn't even seducing him!

Sakura gave him a weird look before grabbing her cocktail dress, halfway closing the bathroom door. "Hey, Sasuke. I forgot, the bachelor's party is today. So I guess we'll be separated today."

"Sure."

"I trust you'll be okay keeping up the act?"

"…"

She peered towards him, emerald eyes curios.; her hands in her hair.

"Hn."

She grinned, "Good." Then she stepped out, twirling on one spot when he was pulling on a black blazer jacket. He stopped and watched her. Her soft pink hair pulled up in an elegant bun while some strands fell freely around her face, framing the her eyes and brought out her eyes. She smiled and his eyes drifted lower, taking in her form. "I look good, don't I?"

Her cocktail dress was crimson, a V form hung slightly low, teasing whoever looked at her chest was left with imagination. Then it curved to her waist and clung tightly to her waist and hips before it was hung loosely around her legs, giving her easy movement to walk. His eyes followed the slit up her thigh as she walked and her gorgeous legs. He finally looked at her and smirked.

She was watching him as he resumed in pulling his jacket over his broad shoulders. She grabbed her purse and leaned back while they both stared.

"We both clean up very nicely, don't you agree?"

000000000000000000000

Each couple took separate cars on the way. Sakura was left with Sasuke and insisted on taking a quick detour. He opened the side of her door while she glided herself out with grace. "What are you doing?"

She waved her backhand, "I'm just taking out cash."

He nodded and leaned against the car, waiting while she took out her requested money. When she turned towards him, her gaze settled softy on his face. She sighed, walking towards him and leaned beside him. "Hey, Sasuke…do you think I can pull this off?"

The dark-haired male swiveled towards her, slightly trapping her with his body and the car. She looked up, eyes wide. He took in her eyes, cheekbones and finally her lips. Her lower lip trembled as she waited in anticipation when he slowly lowered down to her level. Sakura shivered when he passed her face; the back of his hair brushed against her cheek, "Sasuke?"

"Close your eyes." His soothing, baritone voice commanded by her ear, "Close…your…eyes…" she slowly obeyed, hypnotized by his deep voice. He leaned in closer, "You can relax. I'm not going to touch you unless you tell me to." His hands crept to her soft hips, "He's going to be sorry he lost you. Forget the past, forget the pain" she inhaled sharply, "You're beautiful, remember that. You do that and he'll realize what he lost."

Then his lips brushed against her earlobe and drew back, watching her eyes slowly open, hazily. She blinked rapidly, trying to regain her senses. She quickly stood her small height against his tall frame and breathed, "Holy crap. You're worth every penny."

Honk

Honk

"Hey, lovebirds! Move it, drop your lady off and get a move on!"

She smiled softly, "Naruto. Sure, sure. We're coming." Sakura turned towards him and beckoned with her hand, mocking him, "After you, your highness."

"Thank you, peasant." He strode past her, smirking at the drop of her jaw.

"Sasuke Uchiha!"


Everyone was laughing. Girls, specifically. Drinks were pass, smoking were shared and music and dancing were combined in a chaotic combination. Sakura raised her glass, "Girls, here's to the future Mrs. Shikamaru Nara!"

"Cheers!"

Sakura laughed, downing her drink when an arm wrapped around her shoulders. Startled, she looked up to see doe eyes playfully winking at her. "Tenten!" She wrapped her arms around the slightly tipsy girl, "You made it! Oh, you don't know how much I missed you!"

Ino came around, greeting the girl with another glass of the finest wine, "Hey Tenten! You're back!"

She grinned, "Ladies, ladies. I know I'm loved!"

The three burst out laughing.

"Oh my god, that man is sexy!"

That was Sakura's cue to turn around to find her beau slick his way through the crowd of girls, his predator eyes on her. She quickly passed her drink to Tenten, who gladly finished it, and made her way to him halfway. The pink-haired beauty placed her small hands on his chest, relishing the touch of hard muscles underneath her touch, "Sasuke, what're you doing here?" she asked softly.

He brought one calloused hand up, "You forgot your jacket," his voice sexily husky, she noticed. 'Must be the wine.' She thought dismissively. "Your party might be continue until late night. Don't want you to catch a cold."

'He is playing the role very well.'

Girls hastily crowded them, eruption of sweet whispers swept through them.

"—That is so sweet—"

"—If only my Nick were like that—"

"—Stupid ass forgot to bring me mine—"

"—Now that is called sweet love—"

But what came out of Tenten's mouth to Ino, surprised Sakura, "Sakura gets to shag that handsome rogue?!"

Ino choked on her wine.

Sakura sent her a glare.

She held her hands up defensively, "Hey, I won't steal him or anything. It just means I have to shag more men to keep up with you."

Wine burst out of Ino's mouth, laughing uncontrollably.

Sakura couldn't tug back a grin.

But when she turned back, Sasuke was already surrounded by other girls, leaning closer to him; pushing him away from her. "Wow, you smell good."

"You're right, is it natural?"

"If it isn't, must be very expensive cologne."

Sakura grinned when both girls nudged her ribs and she made her way towards him, pushing away girls that dared even touch his chest and lower. She grabbed his hand and led the way to door before she was stopped again. "Come on, Sakura, love. Just let him make a toast for the future missus." He nodded to her and took the wine glass from her hand. She inhaled sharply when their hands brushed lightly and immediately pulled her hand away. He was intently watching her and that was when she noticed the outline of his face, his black tresses and deeps eyes.

Cute, handsome, drop-dead gorgeous, sexy-

And the list went on. He tore his gaze away from her and raised his glass in the air and they all followed. His deep voice, not loud but was enticing enough to stop all conversations, "Here's to the husbands who've won you. The losers that lost you and the lucky bastards who've yet to meet you."

"Wohoo!!"

"That's right, baby!"

Cheers erupted loudly.

He downed his drink, eyes on Sakura the whole time.

She grabbed his hand again, shivering at the contact when his hand circled on hers and his thumb rubbed the back of her palm. Sakura exhaled shakily, chanting in her head 'It's the wine. It's the wine, it's the wine, it's the damn wine-'

"C'mon, Sakura. Don't leave the poor guy alone!"

"Kiss him!"

"With tongue!"

"Show him the girls' secret weapon!"

'Drunk bitches.'

Nonetheless, she caught sight of Aki leaning outside on the car, obviously waiting. His gaze caught hers and he straightened. She turned her back on him, sassily grinning at Sasuke before taking one step closer that closed the gaps between their bodies. She tip-toed, lightly pressing her chest against his and her hand snaked up to his neck and grasped his black, spiky ends.

Her lips moving in a rapid rhythm against his, keeping up with his lip movement and her tongue darted out to lick his lower lip, sucking greedily, taking in his taste. She had most control over him, forcing him to take two steps back, encircling one large hand around her waist. Sakura, almost out of balance, place on hand on the door beside his head, opening her mouth to start the dance of tongues.

Sasuke opened his eyes, half-lowered, watching her eyes closed while her tongue moved against his before closing his against. She finally drew back, letting out a deep breathe, shakily smiling at the girls who hooted at the couple. Sakura, in a daze, caught sight of Aki seething, but for now, she only cared for Sasuke. He had better composure than her, but caught the quick glimpse of shaking sensation in his eyes before it passed.

He smirked haughtily at her.

Until tonight, Sakura.

After his grand exit, Sakura walked her way over to Tenten, who was absolutely astonished. "Damn, Sakura…That's like sex standing up!"

"I think I've just come-"

"Oh dear, God-"

She shut out their thoughts, her insecurity heightened not because of her looks, maybe partly Aki but something else that managed to make her hearth thump painfully against her chest…

… because of Sasuke.

Her bright green eyes widened when she finally composed her thoughts. She bit her lip. It wasn't anything big. She still had feelings for Aki that she needed to fix up with him. She wanted him to want her back. And it was working well, but well…she had a very small attraction for her fake beau. Just a small attraction. The days they've spent fooling around with her family and friends were crazy.

She frowned.

His large hands, strong arms, lean body, enticing eyes, deep, husky voice-

Just lust. It's the wine. I'm just drunk. Maybe I'm still a bit sane, but--

'Oh, fucking shit.'

She downed her drink quickly, reminding her drunk self to take out more cash later on.
