"Sasuke, I'll be staying overnight with Izumi until the baby's tests are done. How do you plan to get home?" They walked out of the hospital room, where Izumi was sound asleep while the nurses took Itsumi for testing.
Sasuke hadn't realized that it was past midnight by now, and he had to get home. He was exhausted, but of course, his car had to break down on top of everything. Sasuke decided to worry about his car in the morning and maybe call a towing company first thing when he wakes up.
Sleep sounded more of a priority.
"Uber? Cab? I'll figure it out, Itachi. Don't worry about me," Sasuke shrugged. It wasn't like it would be a big deal for him anyway, especially since he only lived 20 minutes away.
Itachi patted his shoulder, "Thank you for coming. I'll see you later, yeah?"
...
Sakura found Sasuke standing by the curb, looking down at his phone. She assumed he was either waiting for an Uber, but she didn't know what drove her to do it, but she curiously walked up to him. "You're not going to be able to find an Uber here."
Sasuke looked at her, more like glared, "And how would you know?"
Sakura shook her head in disbelief, "Because I do. They usually don't pick up here because of cars coming in and out. You either have to walk two miles up, or end up waiting for hours here."
Sasuke scoffed as he walked away from her. He didn't want to be around her, and he was growing irritated. Why, whenever he tried to avoid her, he would see her more than usual when he wasn't avoiding her? It was like the universe was trying to conspire against him.
Sakura's brows furrowed. She didn't like being on the other end of the stick, and she was starting to get frustrated. Yes, she wanted to avoid him, but it bothered her that he was walking away from her.
"Hey! I'm still talking to you. Don't you walk away from me," Sakura said as she stomped her way towards him.
She could hear Sasuke let out a scoff, "Doesn't feel great, does it? Having someone walk out on you? Go back to the hospital, Sakura. I'm good."
Damn this Uchiha for being so tall.
His big steps were runs for her.
Sakura caught up with him as she grabbed his arm, "You're going to walk the two miles? You're basically walking up a cliff!"
Sasuke turned around, biting his bottom lip annoyed, "Why do you care?"
Ignoring Sasuke's question, she grabbed his wrist, dragging him towards the hospital parking garage, "Where is your car anyway? What happened to it? Where are you trying to go?"
"None of your business."
"Come on, Sasuke, you're pissing me off. Where's your car?"
"It stopped working."
"What do you mean it stopped working?"
"You're asking too many questions."
Sakura pointed her finger at him, "Look, Sasuke, I'm being professional here. Push those emotions aside and let me drive you home."
Sasuke looked at her in disbelief before letting out a heavy sigh, "Fine."
He followed behind Sakura, struggling to figure out if this was a good idea. All of his efforts trying to get over Sakura, and now he was getting a ride from her?
You miss it when she rides you.
Sasuke shook his inappropriate thoughts as he continued to walk towards her car while he waited for Sakura to fetch her keys. It was almost 1 am, and he was exhausted. He debated whether to call off from work tomorrow to catch up on some sleep at least.
If he had to guess, he only had a total of 6 hours of sleep this whole week. He found himself having trouble sleeping, and when he does get sleep, he would only manage to sleep for 30 minutes before waking up.
He was now with the girl who was the reason he couldn't function. This was a new feeling for him, and it was starting to cause him anxiety.
The last time he experienced such anxiety was a few months after his parents died when he had his first anxiety attack.
"Are you going to get in?" Sakura asked as she opened her door.
Sasuke was pulled back to reality, nodding, and sat in the front seat. Letting out a heavy sigh, he ran his hands through his hair and leaned his cheek against the window.
Sakura didn't say anything, only glancing at him from her peripheral vision. It seemed that she wasn't the only one affected by this situation.
Was he affected by this? Or was it just work?
It didn't matter.
She continued to drive out of the hospital parking garage before breaking the silence, "Where do you live?"
Sasuke mumbled, "Amate Avenue... just a few minutes away from the metro station."
Sakura nodded as she kept her gaze on the road. She looked at the time and realized it was an hour past midnight. Lady Tsunade had given her the next day off as a reward for her hard work on her first day. It was a hectic day, and she was exhausted. She needed to catch up on some sleep.
She entered his address and found that he was about a 20-minute drive away. Internally sighing as she realized how far the hospital was from his house, she glanced at him in her car and found him sound asleep.
Is he sleeping?
She confirmed this when he let out quiet snores. It was something she noticed when they slept together in her bed that night.
She felt her heart break a little. She had to admit it... she missed him. It was becoming hard to move on from him because it seemed the universe kept bringing him back into her life.
She quietly turned on the stereo to ease her distraction. It was loud enough for her to hear, but quiet enough not to disturb the man next to her. He looked different, but not in a good way. She noticed how pronounced his eye bags were, and he just looked disheveled. He didn't look like himself, but she didn't know what the reason could be.
After a few stoplights and turns, they finally reached his apartment. She hadn't been here since the night of the bar... not that she could remember it anyway. She parked her car on the street and gently tapped his shoulder. It seemed he was sound asleep, and she felt guilty waking him up.
"Sasuke... Sasuke we're here," Sakura gently said.
Sasuke bolted up, taking a deep breath, "Huh? Oh... Okay..."
Sasuke unbuckled his seat belt, but remained in his seat, staring outside. It seemed like he had no intention of leaving.
"Thanks for today. You know, delivering the baby and all. I didn't know that you were a part of it," Sasuke said.
Sakura was taken aback but immediately got brought back to reality, "Oh, of course. It's part of my job anyway."
"You're good at what you do."
She's good at a lot of things.
She didn't realize that Sasuke was staring at her. He was staring at her the way he stared at her whenever they were intimate.
She didn't know who leaned in first, but suddenly they were kissing. It felt like it had been too long, and she missed being touched like this. She felt Sasuke's hand snake up behind her head as he pulled her in, deepening the kiss.
Everything happened so fast.
Sakura pulled back, trying to catch her breath, "Sasuke wait... I don't... We're going to make a mistake."
Sasuke shook his head as he desperately pulled her back in, "What if I don't think it's a mistake? What if I want this?"
Sakura looked at him before biting her lip.
Was she going to regret this?
He looked like he wanted it as much as she did... Maybe this was her only way to feel close to him. If she regretted it later, then so be it. Right now, all she wanted was him.
Fuck it.
She fucking missed him.
They suddenly found themselves in his apartment, and it felt like deja vu. All at once, it was as if all the energy had been revived, and she found herself pinned down on his bed. A part of her felt uneasy, having just spent the whole day at the hospital, so she pulled away once again.
Sasuke might have thought that she changed her mind, but to his surprise, she said, "Wait, I need to shower... I spent the whole day at the hospital, I feel gross."
Sasuke smirked at her before glancing towards the bathroom and asked, "Do you want to shower together then?"
Sakura's face turned red as she clenched her eyes shut, "N-no... Can I before..."
Sasuke pointed at the bathroom, "There's an extra towel on the cabinet near the sink."
Without saying a word, Sakura rushed to the bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror as she slapped both of her cheeks with her hand.
What are you doing Sakura, you're going to regret it.
What if this is the last time this will happen?
Red signals were flashing in Sakura's head. This was toxic, and she was allowing herself to be a part of it. Should she take the chance and hope this would change everything, or would things just go back to normal?
They were toxic.
For some reason, she took the chance. She didn't know if she would regret it or not, but she did it anyway. Sakura began to strip down her scrubs as she entered the shower. Warm water cascaded down her body as she washed herself. Scrubbing the dirt away and massaging the soap into her hair, she let out a loud sigh.
Reaching for the towel, she dried her hair completely, combing through her hair with her fingers before exiting the bathroom. She found Sasuke lying down and asked, "Are you going to take a shower too?"
Sasuke got up and made his way to the bathroom, "If you need extra clothes for tonight, you can just pick anything from the top drawer," he said, pointing at the cabinet next to his bed.
Sakura nodded as she saw Sasuke disappear into the bathroom. Was this a dream? Were they just sleep deprived? Not thinking clearly? Not so long ago, they were at each other's throats, saying they hated each other, and now she was at his apartment... and she knew where it was leading to.
She pinched herself, believing that maybe it was a dream, but nope... it was real. She was with Sasuke in his apartment, and she felt like she was back at square one.
Her heart wanted him, even though her mind was telling her no. She wanted to be near him, to get to know the real him, but maybe this was driven by lust. She glanced down at her nudity and let out a sigh. Sakura began to dig through his clothes and pulled out a large t-shirt. The shirt stopped at her knees, but she decided to throw it on the bed.
She wanted Sasuke, even though she knew she was going to regret it.
Sakura climbed onto his bed naked, going underneath his covers. She didn't know why she was nervous, as if she hadn't done the craziest things with Sasuke already. But for some reason... it felt different. She didn't feel the same as she did before and she was experiencing a different aura coming off Sasuke. Was it because he was tired?
It's not too late to leave.
But if you leave, you might never see him again.
Sakura hadn't been to his apartment in months. She hadn't had the time or state of mind to actually admire his place. It's a nice apartment, and it's a lot nicer than hers. It seemed like it was double the size. She knew he was wealthy and earned a lot more than she did.
Her eyes darted towards his bathroom as she heard the sound of his door opening. He emerged, a towel loosely draped around his hips, steam rising from his skin. Her gaze traveled downwards, taking in the contours of his v-shaped torso.
The sight drove Sakura wild.
Unbeknownst to her, Sasuke was now looking at her with the same intensity, as if he had been longing for this moment. She was still unsure if she was making a mistake, but there was only one way to find out.
Sasuke was now on top of her, and their kiss was unlike any they had shared before. It wasn't forceful or aggressive, but rather gentle and tender.
Sakura pulled him closer, wrapping her arms around his neck while his hands explored her body freely.
Moments passed, and Sasuke broke the kiss, locking eyes with Sakura. The look in his eyes was different, devoid of anger or hatred. She didn't want to overanalyze it, hoping that maybe he felt the same way about her.
It was too overwhelming to process in that moment.
Sasuke sighed, brushing away the damp strands of hair from Sakura's face, still wet from the shower. Breaking the silence, he planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Let me have you, Sakura. All of you."
Sakura wasn't sure what he meant exactly.
Did he truly want her, or was it just about sex?
Sakura decided to take her chances, and their lips met once again. Their mouths moved in perfect harmony, their tongues battling for control.
Sasuke's hand slid between her thighs, slipping two fingers inside her. Sakura bit her lip, trying to stifle a moan as she closed her eyes. "Oh, Sasuke."
Desperate for something to hold onto, Sakura reached out and placed her hand on the bed. The pleasure was becoming overwhelming.
As Sasuke skillfully caressed her sweet spot with his fingers, he could feel himself growing harder with each muffled moan that escaped Sakura's lips. He wanted to hear more of her, to be the one responsible for her ecstasy.
Maintaining eye contact, Sasuke began to thrust his fingers into her, urging her to climax. "Come for me, Sakura."
Sakura's eyes rolled back as she tightened around his fingers, feeling herself reach the peak of pleasure. Sasuke increased his movements, then suddenly withdrew his fingers, causing Sakura's fluids to gush out.
"Oh... my god," Sakura moaned, trembling beneath him.
Sasuke spread her lips wide with his fingers, then inserted his index and middle finger into her mouth. She looked at him seductively as she sensually sucked on them, swirling her tongue around them.
Sasuke was speechless. It felt like he was living in a dream right now. He didn't know how they had ended up in this situation, but he fucking wanted her. If this was the only way he could have her, then so fucking be it.
She surprised him by taking control and flipping them over so she was on top. Sakura's hand traveled down as she slowly and teasingly stroked his member. Sasuke closed his eyes tightly, gripping her hair, resisting the urge to thrust himself into her mouth.
Patience.
Sakura smiled seductively as she gently kissed the tip, slowly licking from the base to the head before taking him fully into her mouth. She could hear his soft groans. "Fuck, Sakura."
Sakura continued to bob her head up and down, occasionally sucking on the tip of his member. She gripped the base, massaging it, while maintaining a perfect rhythm with her mouth. It wasn't until she looked up at him, meeting his gaze, that Sasuke almost reached his breaking point.
Sakura had never looked so disheveled before, and it was driving him crazy. "Sakura... wait," Sasuke said frantically. He knew that if Sakura continued, he would be unable to resist exploding in her mouth.
Sasuke flipped them over once again, now on top of her, his tip teasing her lower stomach. Sakura looked at him with wide eyes, unsure of what position he had in mind.
She had never done something so intimate with Sasuke before, especially considering how much slower everything was for her. She didn't know whether to push him away or to go along with it.
Sasuke continued to gaze at her with those soft eyes, silently pleading with her. No words were needed, Sakura understood what he wanted.
Sasuke slowly entered her, creating a stark contrast to their previous encounters that had been focused on speed and roughness. This time, he maintained eye contact with her as he thrust into her, his hands firmly on either side of her hips.
Sakura closed her eyes and turned her head, but Sasuke firmly grabbed her face, urging her to keep looking at him. "Don't look away from me," he groaned.
Moaning, Sakura writhed beneath him, her eyes widening as she felt his touch on her clit. With each thrust, he skillfully pleasured her, ensuring that they would reach climax together.
Minutes go by and gripping onto his shoulders, Sakura couldn't hold back any longer. "Sasuke... god... I-.. I'm going to... fuck I'm coming!"
Sasuke tightened his grip on her hips, increasing his pace. "Look at me, Sakura," he grunted.
He changed their position, shifting her onto her side and entered her from behind. They kept going in this fresh position, with him firmly turning her head towards him and passionately kissing her lips.
He kept her body pressed against his as he moved back and forth inside her, taking his time.
"You're so fucking wet for me, Sakura," Sasuke grunted.
Sakura eyes widened as she let out a soft moan in response before saying, "You're so big Sasuke. You feel so good inside me."
He continued to make 'love' to her slowly, occasionally caressing both of her breasts, and teasing her nipples.
Sakura's eyes fluttered closed as his touch sent waves of pleasure through her body, bringing her to another intense climax. A soft moan escaped her lips, whispering his name, "Sasuke..."
His eyes grew wide with surprise as he frantically thrusts into her, but then he gasped in shock when he unexpectedly climaxed inside of her, "Oh fuck..."
Coming back to reality, they stayed in that position for a few moments as Sasuke reached out and held her hand, their fingers intertwining.
"I want you, Sakura..." Sasuke murmured sleepily from behind her.
Sasuke was unsure of how to handle the situation, but now... his only desire was to be with her. He didn't care about his previous feelings anymore, as he had nothing to lose. Sakura was by his side, and he knew exactly what he wanted. He was willing to change himself for her, and he would even beg if necessary. The once arrogant Uchiha, who never showed any care for anything, was now willing to do whatever it took to win her over. Regardless of whether she hated him or didn't want him, he was determined to do everything in his power to change that.
Sakura's eyes widened in surprise as she turned to face him. "What did you say?"
Sasuke was already fast asleep before she could receive any response from him.
