SasuSaku Month 2017
Day 2: Something More

“You’re in love with her.” It’s Ino who speaks, Sasuke turns
to her the question evident in his eyes. How
do you know? He’s ready to deny it, ready to scoff and turn to look
elsewhere, but despite himself when he turns away from Ino his gaze falls back
to Sakura.

“Everyone knows…except her that is.” Ino seems to take his
silence as an invitation to continue. “I knew before anyone else.” Her voice is
filled with pride, Sasuke scoffs at her. “I knew from the Forest of Death.”
Sasuke tries to tune her out and focus his attention on Sakura as she heals
Kiba who had just taken a heavy beating from Naruto.

“You should tell her, you know.” Ino keeps insisting. His
attention is still on Sakura who turns to scold Naruto for taking yet another
sparring match too far.

“If it’s as obvious as you say it is then she’ll figure it
out.” Sasuke replies. It takes him a moment to realize he just confirmed Ino’s
speculation, but what the hell, why try and hide it when he can barely keep his
eyes off her.

“She won’t. And I think it’s your turn to go the extra mile,
don’t you?” Just then Sakura turns in her gaze toward their direction. His
heart skips a beat as her expression goes from annoyed to bright in an instant,
a dazzling smile forming on her lips as she meets his gaze.

Sakura had been unusually quiet today. Or maybe it was just that she seemed lost in thought today. He wouldn’t say more so than usual though. For the past week since they started to travel together, she had been seemingly lost in her own thoughts as if she was carefully thinking over what she was going to say next. 

He watches from the corner of his eye as she starts to peel an apple in her hands. Maybe he was thinking too much about it. He begins to lower his gaze back down to his book but in that split moment, he senses it– the break in Sakura’s concentration. His eyes return back to her as he sees her cut herself with the knife in her hands. It almost takes Sakura a full two seconds later before she realizes it. She really was spacing out.

Suddenly, he feels quite frustrated as he puts his book aside on the ground and stands up. He watches as a drop of blood drips down to the apple in her hand. The sight seems to snap her back to reality as she drops the apple and lets it roll down to around her feet. A second later, she begins to heal her wound with her chakra. It was frustrating to him to see such carelessness from her. 

“You should be careful. Even if you can heal yourself, I rather you stay uninjured,” he finds himself speaking without realizing it as he picks up the apple from the floor.

“Sorry,” Sakura mumbles. “I was thinking…” she trails off as she takes the apple from his hand. Her apology was different from her usual bubbly persona. There was something bothering her.

“Thinking about what?” There it is again. He was asking more than he thought he would.

“About… us.”

Day 2: Something More

Rated K+

.

Just a Teammate

.

After a long day working at the hospital, Sakura welcomed the end
of her shift with relief. She longed to get home and rest up as her
chakra was low from the extensive healing she had performed that day.
The war may have been permanently over, but people never stopped
getting hurt. Medic nin’s job was never done.

“Sakura-san, you’re leaving?” a friendly co-worker at the
reception desk called to her. A sly look appeared on the woman’s face
and Sakura knew that this meant nothing good for her. “With that
handsome man again?”

“My shift is over, so yes, I’m going home now,” Sakura
replied, ignoring the second question.

“Just so you know, he’s waiting for you outside. Is he your
boyfriend?” The receptionist wasn’t deterred in her line of
questioning. She had a reputation of a huge gossip and Sakura
realized that Sasuke coming to pick her up after work everyday for a
week straight must have become a hot topic of discussion among the
staff. She’d been so wrapped up in her work on the children’s clinic
and other personal matters that she didn’t even notice.

“You mean Sasuke-kun? He’s just a teammate. He’s just got back
from a long-term mission so he wants to catch up with everyone in the
village before he has to leave again,” she explained, keeping her
tone even and unconcerned.
