In the Palm of My Hands

She stood still, looking at Tatiana Kiki as if he was from Mars -a very good-looking man from Mars- and wouldn't believe that he was going to be her escort for the night.

Emerald eyes, behind long black lashes went impossible wide. She said absolutely nothing. Mentally, she was still fighting to keep her jaw closed together, that still wanted to hit the ground.

"We're going to leave you two alone so that you can… get to know each other." Ino smiled mischievous, pulling Tenten at the arm out of the foyer.

Now they were standing there, in complete silence. One staring in utterly shock and other taking in her body that was more than perfect in that dress she was wearing.

The pregnant quietness that hung between them was deathly, at least from Sakura's side.

Tatiana Kiki, on the other hand, only cocked his head slightly to the right, letting that naughty little -delicious- lock fell once again, partly on his face.

'Come on, pull yourself together, you fool! He's your freaking escort for the night, not your future betrothed!'

"Tatiana Kiki?" She asked, which was unnecessary, he introduced himself a couple of minutes ago perfectly clear.

"Yes." He nodded shortly.

"I'm sure I have heard your name somewhere before." She knew who he was, she only wanted to see if he comes clean on his own. She was going to play this dirty now. Or fair. Either way.

She's going to see what his answers will be, if he's honest with her, considering the fact that he knows that she's married to Uchiha Sasuke, the same man he had stolen his previous almost-wife-to-be from.

The right corners of his lips pulled slightly up, into a smirk.

She decided from now on that it should be forbidden for men like Tatiana to even smirk, it may cause the extinct of the female races.

"Possible. Since I am the owner of Tatiana corporations, a company very new to America." He stated as smooth as velvet, silently thanking Uchiha, because even if they are holding a terrible grudge against one another, -from day one- they still have signed a contract that needs to be kept up to.

Sakura resisted the urge to narrow her eyes. He knew what he answered, naturally he wasn't going to say directly that he was the one that impregnated Karin and all that what is already history.

But Sakura, the stubborn woman she… became, continued. "I'm sure I have heard your name, amongst other things."

Kiki said nothing for a short moment, lowering his eyelids half the way closed, giving her a knowing look and somewhere deep in his exquisite orbs, something smugly lay.

"Come now, Miss Senju," He stated, whether there was a mock in his voice or pure amusement, Sakura couldn't tell. "We both know that you are testing my words this very moment. So now I wonder, should I say what you want me to say directly, or beat around the bush?"

By the look of Sakura's almost glaring expression, he easily figured that it was the absolute direct way with this woman. "As the wife of Uchiha Sasuke, I'm sure you have heard that I was the one who took Sarina Karin away from him."
