Beta's note: HERE IT IS! CHAPTER TWO! I took some liberties with this one in order to make it's structure grammatically sound. Hope you don't mind... but I also added to Sasuke's bit (delete it if you want). I swear he made me do it!
The little Sasuke in my brain said, "Smurf-chan, oh great beta-reader, and lover of oreo cookies," (I was thoroughly spooked by his shmoozing attempts) "Shannon needs to add more of me to this chapter; I'm the romantic lead in this thing after all. DO IT NOW!"
I then said "I'm the beta, you're a figment of my fangirly imagination, be gone! You have no power here!" (though that last bit would have been much cooler if I was wearing a pink ballgown and crown while waving a wand, and someone had just dropped a house on his brother)
I thought I had won...but then he played dirty! He said, "I'll tell you where you left your bag of oreos."
So, I caved in and did as the bastard wanted.
Disclamier: I own nothing; only my own fan-fic.
Chapter 2: Getting Home
There were dark clouds in the sky, and it had started to rain heavily enough to force team Kakashi to stop and seek shelter.
"Sensei?" the female member of the four man cell questioned as she and her companions leapt from the trees to land on the soaked ground.
The Copy Ninja looked up from the orange covered book he was currently reading, "Yes, Sakura?"
The pink haired girl let out a small sigh as she walked over to her teacher, "Do you think well make it home by tomorrow?"
Kakashi looked up at the sky before looking back at the girl standing in front of him, "If the weather clears then yes; if it stays this way, we might not get home until the day after- Possibly later."
Sakura quickly nodded before running over to her other two teammates, who had busied themselves with setting up their tents under the shelter of the forest canopy. "Hey, do you need any help?" The quicker they were set up, the sooner they could get out of the godforsaken rain.
Naruto turned around and looked at the girl, "No, it's ok Sakura-chan," his voice was as bright as ever, "we've got it covered." He quickly told her before turning back around to finish pitching the last of the tents.
Nodding she looked back over to where Kakashi stood. "Kakashi-sensei, you should really get out of the rain," Sakura called out to him, beckoning him to come closer to where they were setting up for the night. The silver haired man was standing just outside the reach of the tall tree's branches, book tucked away in his pocket keeping it dry- well more so than he was at any rate.
Kakashi looked over to his student, nodding his head, and slowly made his way over to his team.
After catching a few hours of sleep, Sakura slowly opened her eyes to look around at the tent that she shared with her teammates. Naruto was still asleep beside her, and Sai was just on the other side of the blonde; Kakashi had his own tent, set up just to the right of theirs. Slowly pulling herself from her sleeping bag, trying not to wake the others, she turned to look once more at the sleeping boys before quickly and quietly climbing out of the tent, closing the flaps behind her. She looked around outside before making her way to Kakashi's tent, slowly pulling the tent open, she stepped inside knowing he was already awake and alert.
Pulling himself to his elbows, Kakashi opened his eyes to look at the pink-haired woman in front of him. "What's up?"
She looked at him a moment before looking down to pull off her shoes, moving further inside the tent as she did so. Sakura pulled her vest off, dropping it to the ground, leaving it forgotten on the ground as she got closer to the older man. She lifted the edge of his sleeping bag and slid in beside him, and smiling, "Hi."
Shaking his head, Kakashi shifted over to give her more room before wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her body flush against his, "Hi."
Sakura gasped at the sudden movement, her eyes closed as he pulled her body to his and his greeting entered her mind. She slowly opened her eyes to see Kakashi lying so that he was half beside and half underneath her. She opened her mouth to speak, only found herself unable to utter even as syllable as Kakashi took advantage of her parted lips and pressed his mouth to hers in a searing kiss. She moaned at the sudden contact, becoming more active with the kiss; throwing her arms around his shoulders and deepening it, while pulling herself closer against his well muscled body.
Kakashi was everywhere at once, tasting everything that was her, nipping at her bottom lip, sucking on it, sliding his tongue expertly along her own, dipping into her mouth, while his hands followed a path along her sides, tracing her curves with his fingertips. He smirked against her mouth when she pulled away and moaned, panting lightly as his lips moved down her jaw to her neck and shoulder before retracing their path back to her mouth to indulge in another deep kiss. Breaking for air Sakura rested her head on his shoulder as she gasping quietly, trying to get air back into her lungs, as he continued to kiss down the side of her face and neck pausing briefly to suckle at her pulse point.
"Mm mm, Ka-Kaka-.Kakashi - nngh!- we… we should stop," Sakura moaned as the man with mismatched eyes continued to explore her throat and shoulders, biting down lightly on her collarbone, eliciting a sharp gasp from her kiss swollen, pink lips.
Slowly pulling away from her neck, he looked up at her flushed face. "Hmm? I think you're right," Kakashi whispered in her ear, nibbling at her earlobe a moment before lowering his head back to his bedroll.
Sakura quickly rolled off of him, lying on her side to look over to him, and spoke, "I can't wait for this mission to be over so that we can be together without worrying about somebody hearing us, or walking in on us." She whispered, pink lips curved into a fond smile.
Kakashi shifted from his position lying on his back so that he too was on his side facing the pink haired kunoichi. "I don't think this can go on too much longer, Sakura," he whispered back, keeping his face perfectly straight as he watched the emotions run across her features. "You knew coming into this that nobody could know; you're my student, I'm your teacher," he told her seriously.
Sakura sat up, looking down at her lover, "That's bullshit and you know it; I don't care about that and neither should you!" Her voice was raised somewhere above a whisper, but not loud enough to risk waking the boys sleeping not even two yards away.
Slowly Kakashi sat up as well and whispered back, "Sakura, you're Nineteen years old, I'm Thirty-five! You need to find somebody your own age, or at least closer to it." He didn't move when he saw tears pooling in her expressive green eyes only to trickle down her cheeks.
"Why are you doing this now?" the girl demanded. "We're almost home… We can be together!"
Kakashi signed as he ran a pale hand through his hair, "Sakura…"
"Just don't," Sakura whispered coldly, turning quickly and pulling her vest and shoes back on before standing up and exiting the tent, not bothering to look back even for a second.
Sasuke paced back and forth from his kitchen to his living room, trying to find the right words to say to his former team when they returned. Not long after he was allowed to live on his own, he returned to his old home only to find it just the way he left it, with the exception of a thick coat of dust, a lot of cobwebs, and a few dozen spiders. It had taken hours to get rid of the dirt, and pests that had claimed the place as their own in his absence, but it hadn't been too terrible, he supposed, considering how long he had been away. Now, he wished that he had left the cleaning so that he had something to occupy his time instead of simply waiting impatiently. He had made a brief visit to the Hokage Tower the day prior in an attempt to alleviate some of the boredom only to be informed by the large breasted village leader that Naruto and the rest of the team had been waylaid by some particularly bad weather, adding at least another day to his long wait.
The dark haired youth had been disappointed, and frustrated at the same time, wanting badly for his former teammates to return so that he could face them and get the initial explanations, apologies, and greetings out of the way. The anticipation and worry was starting to wear at his gut, and his mind. Heaving a mental sigh, Sasuke stopped pacing and headed out the door. He wasn't going to wait alone any longer.
After leaving Kakashi's tent, Sakura didn't want to return to hers. She was angry and disappointed with how everything had turned out; she knew he was just as scared as she was about the whole thing. There was a chance that Tsunade- the Village Kage, her teacher- might not approve of them being together, and break up the team.
It only made sense of course. It was rare for shinobi involved in romantic relationships to be placed on the same team as their partner; it cut down on the chances of one or both lovers doing something stupid, and risking the mission. What was worse, though, was that theirs was also a teacher/student relationship, and would be viewed negatively as such by most of the village, even if she was legally an adult and able to make her own choices. She understood all of that, but it didn't make her lover's words hurt any less, no matter how pragmatic they were.
Sakura was deep in thought about what to do about her and Kakashi's relationship, and didn't even notice the Kunai flying towards her. The only thing she was aware of was that she was laying flat on her back on the ground with somebody's body covering her own. Opening her eyes, after closing them upon impact, but before being rolled so that she was on top of her savior and thrown behind the cover of a thick trunked tree, Sakura became aware of a shock of silver hair, and a solitary grey eye. Quickly, she got to her feet and pulled a kunai from the weapon pouch strapped to her thigh.
"Kakashi," She called, emerging from behind the tree positioning herself beside him in a fighting stance, and looking at him from the corner of her eye, as she scanned the area for her attacker or attackers. "You're bleeding," She informed her sensei, voice tight. She was slightly sick with herself for proving to be a statistic; a love-sick ninja, too caught up in relationship problems to be fully aware of her surroundings.
Kakashi looked down at the kunai embedded in his left arm. "I've been worse," he winked at her, which, considering his Sharingan eye was still covered, didn't have the same effect at all. She turned, ready to put her weapon to good use only to drop her arm from its throwing position when she saw Naruto and Sai emerge from the bushes in two separate directions.
"Whoever they were, they got away," Naruto said an angry growl in his usually cheery tone, indicating his annoyance at the fact.
Kakashi pulled his forehead protector away from his implanted eye to expose his Sharingan. "By the looks of it they're coming back," he said, as scanned the forest, picking up small, irregular movements in the surrounding bushes and trees.
"Shit, there are more of them coming!" The pink haired kunoichi could sense them now too, closing in on them from all directions. Turned to face her dark haired teammate, "Sai, radio in, call Konoha and tell them to send help," she called to him. While Sakura rushed towards the three man tent that belonged to her, Naruto and Sai to gather the remainder of her weapons, Sai nodded curtly and quickly called for aid.
Tsunade was sitting at her desk drinking from a cup of sake, when the door was thrown open, revealing a flushed looking Kotetsu.
"Lady Hokage, Team Kakashi sent a call for help," the spiky haired shinobi informed without pause, "They were ambushed on their way back to the village." Tsunade was about to speak, but the man continued on answering her obvious question even before the first word could leave her mouth, "They're not too far from Konoha now," there was a small pause as he took a breath before adding, "Close enough to send reinforcements."
Tsunada jumped her to feet, slamming her hands down on her desk. "Get me a team in here now!"
Kotetsu nodded and disappeared from the office as quickly as he had entered. Not long after the dark haired man had left, a few seconds at most, the door was thrown open once again, this time revealing the last of the Uchiha.
"Let me go with the assigned team," inky eyes bored into the Hokage's own.
Tsunade looked up at the young man standing in front of her. "You know I can't let you outside of the village," she told him returning to her seat. "You're still on probation."
"You have to let me go," Sasuke insisted, "let me be part of the team you're sending."
The pigtailed blond narrowed her eyes a moment, considering the raven-haired man. "Fine, Uchiha," she consented, "but you will follow the orders of Hyuuga; he's the team Captian. Don't expect this to happen again though." Sasuke nodded his understanding as he turned to leave her office so that he could gather what he needed from home.
"Wait!" Sasuke turned and looked back at the Hokage. "You will be going dressed as ANBU." It wouldn't do to let anyone know she'd made such an exception in allowing the former traitor to leave the village before his probationary period was up. "I'll have Shizune bring the uniform to you." Sasuke nodded again, preparing to leaving the office, and return home to get ready for his mission.
"Oh and one more thing," Sasuke turned to look back once more. "Be back here in fifteen minutes to meet with the rest of the team." He nodded a third time, and this time actually managed to get out the door.
"Brat," Tsunade shook her head and downed the last of her cup of sake.
