The girl with Pink Hair

Chapter Twenty Eight

"Ah." Sakura moaned out as waves of pleasure flowed through her body, her heart pounding inside her chest. Her eyes fluttered closed as she leaned her head on Kakashi's bare shoulder as he groaned close to his finish line. The water turned lukewarm from overuse; Sakura opened her eyes feeling Kakashi stand up right. He smiled looking down at her blushed face, it took her a moment to not feel so vulnerable and look him in the eye.

Sakura licked her lips as he followed Kakashi out of the shower, she picked up a towel wrapping it around her body as she moved out of the bathroom to find her phone. Her long hair was already feeling dry, she bit her lip wondering how long they had been in there.

After checking her messages, she tossed her phone on Kakashi's large bed and walked back into the bathroom to get dressed for the day. It was finally Christmas and she knew Naruto and the others will be over early. Kakashi moved to the kitchen and began cooking a large breakfast feeling his good mood soak in, he smiled as he started the coffee pot.

After twenty minutes he was wondering where Sakura was, he removed the last bit of bacon from the pan to the red and green platter before walking into his bedroom. He turned his head and his breath was knocked out of his body. Sakura stood in the bathroom doorway wearing a silver skirt laced with glitter which sparkled when catching the light. She had on a black shirt with a matching cardigan placed over it. A dark green scarf was wrapped around her neck as black leggings covered her long legs.

"What?" She asked putting long dangling earrings in. "Hinata and TenTen wanted to get dressed up today when we all meet at the café." She huffed at Kakashi's stare. "This is my attempt." She shrugged moving to the bathroom to finish her hair. Kakashi walked over, taking her hand in his.

"You look...you look stunning." He breathed as he engulfed her appearance, Sakura was already battle ready, never wearing things such as jewelry, skirts or makeup. It was rare to see her looking all dolled up and Kakashi loved this.

"I do not-"

"You really do." He breathed pressing his lips against hers, staining his mouth with her red lipstick. She smiled against his kiss as she leaned into it.

"I uh..." Kakashi cleared his throat, "...there is something I want to do before anyone gets here."

"Oh?" Sakura smiled as he led her to the bed,

"Wait..." Kakashi knitted his eyebrows together, "-where is your sling?" He noticed her arm wasn't inside it.

"I don't have to wear-"

"Sakura, don't-"

"No really." Sakura laughed, reaching over to her phone and pulled the message from Dr. Yu and showed Kakashi. "I don't have to wear it anymore."

"O-Oh." Kakashi breathed taking the phone from Sakura's hand and reread the message twice. "I see."

"Yeah, my shoulder is a little sore, but I am good-" Sakura's voice faded from Kakashi's mind as his chest tightened. This was it...her shoulder had recovered this was coming to an end. He looked at her as a smile played on her lips as she spoke. She would be returning to the waterfall village soon.

These past weeks had been so amazing for him. He ate dinner with her every night, went to bed and woke up beside her every day, she was always an arm length away but now that would all be changing again. She would be miles away inside a different village, Kakashi pulled his lips together as he went deeper into the thoughts swimming around his head.

There would be days where he didn't hear from her, times when he wouldn't be sure if she was alright or getting attacked by her own soldiers. Nights where he knew he wouldn't be able to sleep because he had grown so accustomed to her laying in his arms. Days would turn into weeks without seeing that beautiful face and blaring green orbs...Kakashi was second guessing himself if he could revert to that.
