Day Three: Part Two

"Sit," Mei pointed at the chair in the middle of the room and got back to the table. Sasuke sat down and looked at the girl's back.

"What's your answer?" Uchiha did not beat around the bush. Mei's back tensed but she continued preparing the ingredients for the treatment. His eyes narrowed while he waited, btu she remained silent. "Mei." Sasuke called her name. She heard notes of impatience in his voice.

"After the treatment," she said quietly.

"What?"

"I will tell you after this treatment." Mei turned around and looked directly into Sasuke's eyes.

Sasuke nodded. He was willing to wait a while longer, he knew that the wait was going to be worth it.

"Where the hell did she go?" Sakura hissed under her breath as she walked around the small house. She peeked in through the window but could not see anything. "The house is empty. Even her ugly cat is gone." She stated in a matter-of-fact way.

Naruto did not reply, he walked to the front door and kicked it in. Sakura glanced at the blonde, feeling new found respect for him. She followed closely behind. It was the first time she was inside Mei's house. The very few times she visited this place, she always remained by the door. A look of disgust played on her lips. She wrinkled her nose when she saw a pile of clothes laying on the bed.

Naruto quickly scanned the whole house, but everything seemed to be there. He was confused.

"Looks like she left in a rush," Sakura said. She pointed at the pile of clothes. "I'm sure some of them are missing,"

Naruto swallowed the lump in his throat. He desperately roamed his mind thinking of scenarios of what could have happened, but only one kept flashing in his mind. She left with Sasuke. Meanwhile Sakura looked at the bookshelves. She trailed her fingers over the wood collecting the dust.

"Doesn't she know how to clean." She exclaimed wiping her finger. "This is filthy..."

"Enough," Naruto barked not turning around. "Sakura, enough."

His cold voice sent shivers down her spine. Sakura looked at Naruto's broad back, while he marched towards the exit. She could not help but wonder when did Naruto mature so much. The girl shrugged, threw one last glance at the house, and hurried after her teammate.

Her hands entered his head, the same way she done to his back and his chest during the previous treatments. Mei worked in silence. This session was more unpleasant and painful than he expected, but Sasuke closed his eyes and tried to distract himself. His thoughts travelled to the girl standing behind him. He imagined her slim figure in her loose clothes, walking around him, raising her hands to continue the treatment, and every time she would do it her ample breasts would rise too. His body tensed and, in an instant, a sharper pain pierced his head. Sasuke threw his head back and grunted. Mei stepped backwards.

"Sasuke," she groaned. "I told you to relax. This is not a joking matter."

"I am trying to," he hissed back. He opened his eyes to look at the girl. "How much longer?"

"Around twenty more minutes, come on, lean back, the sooner we start the sooner we finish."

Uchiha did not comment, he allowed her to push his shoulders back on the chair and continue. The next twenty minutes went by quicker than he expected. When he opened his eyes again, Mei was washing her hands in the same large bowl she used every day. Sasuke got up and stepped behind her. His chest touched her back, making her shudder. Sasuke leaned closer, his hair tickled her ear. "Your answer." He whispered. Her scent tickled his nostrils, making him lean closer. Sasuke rested his hand on the table at each side of her. Mei was trapped between the table and the guy behind her. She finished washing her hands and wiped them with a cloth. Sasuke was waiting.
