my sweetest downfall | Tsunade X Sakura
"I thought it was considered bad manners to allow a princess to pour her own tea." Tsunade's rewarding scowl is enough to ignite a spark of mirth inside Sakura-ah, perhaps teasing Tsunade is truly an excellent pass time, if this is how she reacts; like a petulant child!
"I'm the Hokage, not a princess," she corrects, not quite comprehending what Sakura is alluding to. That's okay, Sakura doesn't mind explaining.
"Mhm, that's interesting," Sakura starts, and watches the way Tsunade's eyes narrow in suspicion. "Shizune-san told me an interesting tale," something like recognition flares to life in those brown irises that toe the line of being amber in the right lighting. "What is it that they called you? Tsuna-hime?" She cannot contain her laughter at the cross expression that breaks out across Tsunade's features. It racks her body and consumes her until she is nothing but a shell of gasping breaths and teary eyes-can she be blamed? The look of annoyance Tsunade bears is enough to fuel Sakura's nightmares for a lifetime.
