A/N: Hey! Eheh, I suck at updating quickly… Sorry… But on the bright side here is a serious chapter! Or so it seems… I'm not entirely sure… Mainly because what is serious to me is apparently not to others… Argh, sorry, that was strange… Anyway, I hope that you like this chapter and don't find my writing to be a little too spazzy and strange. Sorry for Sasuke and Sakura being very out of character and stuff…

Uh, I don't own Naruto and please enjoy the chapter.

Chapter Four

But maybe…

He pressed forward, releasing my wrists and settling his hands on my hips. Pure shock coursed through me, my hands hovering beside my head. For some strange reason, all I could think about was Sasuke's lips on mine and his strong hands holding my hips, fingers gently brushing against my skin. It all felt strange yet something was right. Something in the back of my mind snapped into place and I finally moved.

With all thoughts flying out the window, my hands moved, fingers lacing through his raven locks. I tugged him forward, eyes closing and silently urging him to keep going. He seemed to relax, his shoulders drooping slightly under my arms. He 'begged' for more, licking my lower lip carefully and his hands changed their position.

Lightly skimming my lower back, he lifted his right hand up to my shoulder, clamping down while his other gripped my waist, completely anchoring me to his hard body. I shivered against him and pushed forward suddenly needing to feel more.

I don't have any idea what came over me, but I suddenly felt whatever the feeling was, slowly wash away as Sasuke lifted me, placing me on the hand railing. The way he held onto me was a distinct 'Sasuke move', one he constantly used on me. One Sasuke used as a child when he felt scared or upset…

Ding… The elevator stopped, the doors opening up to the department we work in. No one would be around. Last I checked Sasuke had given everyone today off, a colleague had told me.

Finally, something to wake me up. The sound rang through my head and more parts of a strange puzzle in my mind clicked together.

I yanked myself away from him, moving my hands to push against his broad shoulders. He blinked at me, trying to pull my body back towards his. The red tinge was still in his eyes…

"What- What are you doing?" I yelled at his face, desperately pushing back. I felt like slapping him. Like slapping myself. How could I have been so stupid?

"What?" He looked back at me with those eyes… Eyes that seemed to revert back to their 'innocent state', completely confused and worried. 'What did I do?' and 'What's wrong Sakura?' they scream at me, making a small part of me crumble and want to give in to him completely.

"This! What do you think you're doing?" Did he see our relationship as some kind of game? Something he had to win?

"I- I thought you-," He had to see me as some kind of joke. An 'in-joke'. Surely this is all some sick new 'thing' he has going for himself.

"Thought that I wanted you to attack me?"

"What? I didn't attack you…" To me, he changed into the little Sasuke I used to know… Little Sasuke looking for someone he could dominate and mess around with, only to realise that he was messing with the wrong kid.

"Well, what do you call this then?" I pushed him back a bit more so that I could safely wave one of my hands around. "Some strange game?"

"N- no… You let me- You agreed!" His hands slipped to my waist as he practically shouted at me. "You kissed me back!"

"You wouldn't let go! Stop messing with me!" I shoved him back this time and made a run for the elevator doors. I had to make it to my office and then I could finally put some real space between us.

He followed suit, practically running to my office just as I slammed the door. The door handle twisted as I searched my bag for the key to lock it. It opened a crack and my heart stopped.

"Sakura." I shoved my shoulder against the door, catching Sasuke of guard and managed to close it and keep it that way long enough to lock it. "Sakura, open the door! Sakura!" Letting out a sigh of relief, I rested my back against the door… The door rattled… "Sakura!" I could feel him slamming his fist against the door again and again. "Open the door! Right now!" His voice strained as he seemed to be desperately trying to stop himself from losing it. The door took another pounding, harder this time. I shuddered, sliding down the door and pulling my knees up against my chest. He was actually starting to scare me. I could imagine the anger etched into his features, but the crimson tinge in his eyes would still be present. I had known him long enough to know how he would react. I just didn't know to what degree he would react.

The door finally stopped moving. He decided to stop abusing the poor door it seemed. His ragged breathing rang through the silence, until footsteps joined. Every sound seemed to move away and I could feel every muscle in my body relax.

I picked myself up off of the floor, dusting off invisible dirt from my jeans. Moving slowly and carefully, I walked towards my desk and around to the chair. I bent down to retrieve the empty box under my desk to put all of my things in when I heard it. Footsteps…

My heart stopped and I felt faint. Slowly, I turned my head to the left. The door linking my office to Sasuke's. I had completely forgotten about it in my haste to get away from him, but it seemed Sasuke hadn't. Even from where I stood, a good two metres away from the door, I could see the handle turn silently. I could have run towards the locked door, but I froze up. I couldn't get away even if I wanted.

The door finally swung open, revealing the man I was running from for some reason that I myself couldn't seem to understand. It had something to do with the kissing but after that I have no clue.

I closed my eyes imagining the pure rage written all over his face as he crossed the two metres between us. I think that I was waiting for some kind of violent action towards me, but it never came. I could hear his heavy breathing, feel his presence… What was he doing?

"Sakura… Listen to me… For once listen to what I have to say and don't immediately shoot it down." One of his hands grasped my shoulder and I took a peek at his face. He frowned down at me, mouth pressed into a thin line. Slowly, I nodded and turned to face him completely. "Okay… I-," He sighed and dropped his hand from my shoulder. "Actually, I'm sure there are some things that you'd like to say… You go first." He actually managed to smile even though his eyes told another story.

"Okay. I- I want you to tell me the truth. The whole truth. What do you really think of me? What am I to you? What do you mean 'I want you both'? What the hell is this?" I waved frantically.

"Okay… What I really think about you… Well, I care about you, that's for sure… You're one of my best friends." He sighed heavily.

"Yeah, and? What else? Why do I feel like you are lying to me?" Because he is…

"I-,"

"Come on."

"I don't know anymore… I know that I care about you. I wouldn't just forget you because Karin told me to. I would never do that. It's like asking me to stop calling Naruto an idiot. But I really don't know anymore… I can't give you an answer…" He ran a shaky hand through his hair, took a deep breath and looked at me directly. "I want you to stay in my life somehow… Just… Don't leave me. That's it; you don't have to do anything. I'm sorry for 'this'."

So, he finally made some attempt at telling me what he really thought… I guess that is good enough for now. Oh, but while I may forgive him a little bit, don't think that I'm going to be that nice to him… Later on…

I lifted my arms to wrap them around his neck. His eyes widened dramatically as is pulled myself against him.

"Well, I suppose that's good enough for now… But you better start thinking about what I asked. I'm probably gonna randomly ask you questions."

"Yes, I thought you would… Oh, uh, Sakura?"

"Yup?" He looked rather nervous, what the heck?

"Umm, I just wanna test something. Will you let me?" I let go of him and took a step back. What could he want to test?

"Depends… What do you want to test?"

"Whether I actually like what we just did." Wait, what?

"What? Wait a sec… Oh my god Jun!" How could I have forgotten so easily? My own boyfriend. Here I am, making out with my best friend and I totally forgot! No! "No, no way, you want me to cheat on my boyfriend with-,"

I barely noticed the change in his expression at the mention of my wonderful boyfriend Jun, before Sasuke bent down. His arms wrapped tightly around my waist as he pressed his lips to mine. He growled lowly and licked my lower lip.

"Sasu-," He took the opening and deepened the kiss. I responded without thinking again. I really had to stop that. Think about Jun Sakura. Remember your boyfriend?

He broke the kiss briefly for air. "You already cheated on him…" Sasuke was right for once. I had already given into the whole elevator thing. How was I going to explain this- Oh god.

He moved. He kissed lightly down my jaw, down the left side of my neck, nipping and tasting. Hmm, apparently that part of my neck is sensitive…

"Sasu- Sa-," He smirked and I could feel it. His hands moved to my hips, fingers grazing lightly against my skin, sending shivers up my spine. Okay, I was enjoying this way too much. Must stop now…

"Sasuke stop." Okay, so that has to be the weakest I've ever sounded. I pushed again his shoulders weakly too. Damn it. "Sasuke… No…"

"Why?" What? Why? I'll show you why!

"I have a boy friend and you have a girlfriend that you claim to love. Why are you doing this to me and not her huh?" Okay, so the reason is a little obvious, but we both probably choose to ignore it.

"Because with Karin it's all about sex. With Sakura it isn't." He stopped and looked up at me, the same look in his eyes…

"That doesn't make sense. You can't have both."

"I don't want both." Did he realise what he just said?

"Then who do you want?" Here we go…

"I don't know…" Crash and burn, I want to hit him over the head.

"Well, Sasuke," Finally some strength in my voice. "If you don't know, I need to pack up my things."

As if in a totally blur, he growled and grasped my wrists, whispering. "No, you stay. I mean, you can go home today, but you still work here. No arguments." The box was thrown across the room and I was dragged out of my office, through his and out into the main area of the floor we worked on.

"What do you mean? I'm allowed to leave if I want to."

"Are you freaking insane or something? Stop going from upset to happy to angry!"

"You're one to talk. I suppose that makes us a great couple." You know how in cartoons and some movies, when someone says something that isn't funny and everything gets really awkward? Then there is this cricket sound that plays? Yeah, well, that just happened.

"Sakura…"

"Just kidding! Fine, fine, if you want me to work here that badly I'll stay but no more attacking me okay? Or else I'll hit you over the head. You got that?" He flinched slightly.

"Yeah, yeah. Thanks…" He managed to smile again. Damn him for looking so cute!

"Hmm, maybe I am insane… Come on let's go! You can come over to my place if you like. Jun might come over but that is still rather unlikely. He's been swamped with work."

Oh? Is that an invitation?" He winked… Oh my god he winked.

"What? No, you idiot, not that kind of invitation. Gee, can you think with the brain in your skull please? I just want to hurry up and get back to normal. Anyway, Naruto is coming over so we can all watch a movie together and stuff. Sound good?" I grinned at him, this could be quite fun. Just like old times.

"That would be… Umm…" He looked at me like he was deep in thought and then grinned. "Awesome. Come on let's go!"

Sasuke grasped my hand and ran for the elevator, dragging me along for the ride. We grinned at each other as we waited for the elevator to start moving, swinging our clasped hands between us. I don't think that he realised that he laced our fingers together, even as we stood, talking randomly and even as got into the car park where we had to go to our own cars. But surely he noticed as his hand lingered, prolonging the contact until he finally realised that we should get going. Surely he realised. Sadly, I had this sneaking suspicion that he is completely oblivious to his own feelings… And I had no idea why it made my heart sink ever so slightly…

A/N: Well, there you have it. Chapter 4! Yay! Next chapter should be happy! Umm, well, please review and I'll see ya soon :D
