Bring her back

Chapter 8

Sakura opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Naruto sleeping on the other bed peacefully. She smiled a little, then sit up.
Sasuke and Kakashi were sleeping on the ground in front of the beds in their sleeping bags.
It was around 7 am, according to the amount of light that came in through the window.
Sakura looked at herself and realised that she was wearing Kakashi's long sleeve top. She was confused. Then she remembered, putting it on. Flashbacks came from last night. She looked at the sleeping Kakashi. And she remembered. Their passionate kiss, which made her feel like a desirable woman for the first time in her life. And the fear she felt afterwards.

"Good morning, Sakura" Sasuke greeted her as he was sitting up.

"Good morning, Sasuke-kun!" She quickly turned her head towards him and greeted him with a slight smile. She haven't even noticed him waking up, she was lost in her memories so much.

Sasuke stood up wearing only his underwear, and went to the bathroom, while he put on his robe. He came back with a big glass of cool water and walked to Sakura, who was still sitting in bed, staring out of the window.

"It'll make you feel better" Sasuke said as he handed her the water.

"Oh, I'm fine" Sakura said kindly as she turned her head towards Sasuke who was staring at her top. "But, thank you" she said quickly and took the glass from his hands.

Sasuke turned around and started walking towards the little kitchen that was on the other side of the room. He suddenly stopped and glanced back at Sakura.

"Do you want some coffee?" He asked.

"Yeah, sure" she answered surprisedly.

She got up, went into the bathroom, then put on her robe and went into the kitchen.

Sasuke was sitting at the desk, with a mug in his hands and another was next to him. Sakura sat down in the chair where the coffee was and took a slip.

"Hmm...thank you! That's delicious!" She said cheerfully.

He smiled a little, but haven't said anything.

"I forgot my clothes at home, Kakashi gave his shirt to me, to have something to sleep in" She explained all of a sudden.

"Yeah, I thought the same" he said "Why else would you wear it?" Sasuke smirked.

Minutes went by with the two of them sitting in silence and drinking their coffee. Sasuke's kind behaviour was unusual and it made her feel weird. The silence between them although wasn't awkward at all. It has always been like that, she got used to it.

A loud yawn got Sakura out of daydreaming.
"Naruto woke up" she smiled

"I'll make some breakfast" Sasuke stated

"You know how to cook?" Sakura asked amazed

"Yes" he answered "My mother taught me the basics when I was little." He explained

"Oh...I see" she smiled. "I'll take a shower until then" she said as she stood up.

When she got out of the bathroom, wearing her ninja clothes, Kakashi and Naruto were already sitting at the table with empty plates in front of them. Sasuke was still cooking.

"Good morning!" Sakura greeted them.

They greeted her as well. She sat down in the chair she was sitting in previously, which was now facing Kakashi.

She lift up her mug, and took a sip from her leftover coffee, while she took a glance at Kakashi. He was staring at her with something in his eyes she has never seen before. She couldn't tell what was that exactly, but she was sure about one thing. That's the first time he looks at her like that. She put down the mug and looked at Naruto. His eyes were closed, and he was still half asleep. Sakura glanced back at Kakashi who was still looking at her. He smiled at her temptingly, with his eyes. She couldn't help blushing and her mouth moving into a nervous smile as she looked down at the desk.
