The Weasel and the Cherry

Chapter 5

Back at base.

Pein: Are you ok?

Sakura: Yeah. I'm fine.

Pein: Listen, I know you never really had any parents, so I would like to be a father to you.

Sakura: *Should we?* Yes. I wouldn't mind him being our dad. *Alright, inner. You win.*

Ok.

Pein: Good. Now, you may call me what you want. Except in front of the enemy. Then you call me leader-sama like everyone else.

Sakura: (nods head)

Pein: Okay. You all can go back to being morons and welcome to the family, Sakura.

Sakura: Thanks. I'm gonna go and check this place out. Peace! (disappears in a swirl of cherry blossoms)

To Sakura!! Getting los- I mean wandering around the base.

Sakura: Let me see...where to go, where to go. I know! Time to go find the book room.

Sasori: Want help?

Sakura: Ahh!! (turns around) Oh, hi Sasori. And yes, I do want help.

Sasori: Ok then, follow me.

Sakura: Okie!

Sasori showed Sakura to the book room.

Sasori: Ok. Well bye. Later I will show you around. Oh and I need to talk to you. Alone. Later.

Sakura: Ok.

Sakura found a few books and started to read.

Itachi: Sakura, why are you reading 1001 Ways to Torture and Kill Your Victims?

Sakura: I don't know. But I like it.

Itachi: Are you serious?

Sakura: Yep! Why?

Itachi: Because you are gonna fit in around here. Oh and stay away from Hidan. He loves that stuff. Anywho, stop reading and come with me.

Sakura: Why?

Itachi: Just do it.

Sakura: Ok.

They disappeared. To ItaSaku!!!!

Sakura: Where are we going?

Itachi: You will see.

Sakura: Ok.

Later at their destination.

Sakura: Are we there now?

Itachi: Hn.

Sakura: One more time, Uchiha and I will hurt you. (deadly tone)

Itachi: You won't hurt me. You love me to much.

Sakura: Want to test that theory?

Itachi: Not now. Oh hey, we're here.

Sakura: Really?! (hopeful)

Itachi: Nope. I lied.

Sakura: *two can play at this game.* (smirks) Ok. Maybe I lied about liking you. Maybe I like someone else. Like Gaara.

Itachi: You do love me. I can see it in your eyes.

Sakura: I'm gonna find Gaara.

Itachi: Do you even know where you are?

Sakura: Nope. But I can find my way around. I always do.

Itachi: Really? I wonder what else you can find your way around at.

Sakura: Shut up. Where are we going again?

Itachi: Sakura, were you messing around earlier or did you really mean it?

Sakura: I was kidding Itachi-kun.

Itachi: Really?

Sakura: Yep. Do you want a hug?

Itachi: Yep. (spreads his arms) Come here.

Sakura: Ok.

They hug. After their lovely moment, they hear something.
