The girl with Pink Hair

Chapter Forty Five

P.O.V. Kakashi Hatake

"So-" Sakura's sweet voice called from my couch, I smiled thinking it had been too long since her songful voice filled my apartment. "-I am yours to touch now?" She leaned against the couch her head resting on her arm as I sat beside her, handing over a wine glass full of a sweet white wine.

A playful smirk rested along her lips and her eyes glowed with amusement, I didn't feel like I was in trouble for what I had said this evening.

"Yes." I said pulling my mask off, setting it on the coffee table.

"Says who?" She questioned.

"Me." I reached my hand around the back of her neck; I muffled the groaned in the back of my throat feeling my fingers tangle through her long soft hair.

I roughly pulled her closer, her hands caught herself on my chest as I mashed our lips together. I felt my body temperature begin to rise and my pants tighten.

I didn't want to escalate tonight to quickly, so I broke the kiss I shared with her. I wanted to take things slow with her, take our time and enjoy ourselves.

Her eyes fluttered opened and in 0.1 seconds her picturesque face went from pouting to annoyed making me grin.

"I promised you-" I whispered to her, running my thumb over her blushed cheek. "-the next time you came by you would get a nice quiet evening."

"Yeah-"

"I am going to start to start dinner."

"Dinner?" She repeated as I stood, she still looked to be in disbelief I was walking away from her.

"Yes." I chuckled, "You know that time at night when we eat?"

"I know what dinner is." She muttered causing me to laugh, I heard her set her wine glass on the table. "I'll help you."

"Hm?" I turned seeing she had reached my side quickly. "You don't need-"

"I want to." Sakura flashed a smile made just for me; my heart melted at the sight of it. I cleared my throat and nodded.

"Alright then." I directed her to the counters where multiple vegetables were waiting. "Cut those up for me?"

"Sure." She nodded as I went to prep the rest of the food.

After a while, I turned my head and felt impressed watching Sakura dice the carrots almost effortlessly. Naruto and the others told me many stories as an attempt to jog my missing memory, but it all failed. For a woman who people all claimed couldn't cook, she was extremely skilled with a knife.

"Are you going to tell me where you have been all this time?" I questioned taking a quick glance over my shoulder to read her body language.

"There's nothing to tell." Another famous vague answer by Sakura Haruno! I sighed turning around to fully face her.

"Alright then, will you explain to me your arm?" I nodded towards her elbow that was wrapped in white gauze.

"The River Village." Sakura let out a silent sigh, I knew she didn't like being twenty questioned, but it was me, and I could see she was trying to not turn around and snap my neck and for that I was appreciative.

"Oh?" I crossed my arms over my chest, "Why did they need more blood from you? Last time you were there, they nearly drained you dry."

"They didn't take any blood." Sakura said, licking her plump lips as she avoided my gaze

"Then what did they do?" I didn't understand what else they would have done to her to make her need to wear gauze around her arm.

"Nothing." Sakura shrugged, about to turn around to mindless stab the innocent vegetables.
