A/N: What is the best partner to writing a fanfic? Wine, I tell you. Wine,
wine, and more wine. Apart from that, anyone interested in being my beta-reader?
I would like someone who could respond with corrections/suggestions within 24
hours of me finishing the chapter, has a good sense of humor, and likes long
walks on the beach!

Sakura woke with the morning sun glaring through the window. There was
something about this particular amount of sunlight that caused a searing pain to
shoot through her head. The uncomfortable feeling didn�t stop there, either.
As quickly as possible it ran throughout her body and settled in her stomach,
causing her to groan out loud from the nausea inflicted upon her.
It took a few moments for her thoughts to become conscious and the first
thing she noticed was that she was lying above the covers on her hotel room bed
- completely naked. The rush of memories she expected to flood back into her
mind never came. She closed her eyes once more to shield herself from the pain
of light and then groped around for the edge of a blanket to pull over her
exposed body.
The memories were fuzzy and came to her in bits and pieces. Even though it
made her stomach uneasy to think so hard when trying to recall the previous
nights events, she did.
Drinking, those silver strands of hair, the bartender...
That much was clear to her. There was one other feeling that she couldn�t
seem to place with any of the situations she recalled.
Warmth, soft, complete...
The thought brought butterflies to her previously complaining stomach. That
feeling was familiar - it was the same sensation that Kakashi made run through
her on more than one occasion throughout this mission.
In sudden realization, Sakura bolted up to a sitting position, throwing the
blanket to her lap. She remembered.
That kiss.
His face.
The desire.
Oh god, but what exactly happened? In her mind it was a blur of touches and
whispers. Sakura found that even though this was unexpected, it wasn�t
unpleasant. The question of what all actually happened between them was fresh on
her mind. Blood began to rush to her cheeks the more she thought of the
possibilities.
It shouldn�t have happened, whatever it was that actually did
happen. She had this sinking feeling that she had played right in his trap. To
add to it all, she didn�t know which bothered her more - the fact that he may
have seduced her or the fact that even if he did, she didn�t care. She had
enjoyed it..at least she figured she had.
Weren�t they supposed to leave this morning? Glancing at the clock Sakura
noticed it was already 9am. And where exactly was the man she had so indulged in
last night? There was no sign of him. Surely he hadn�t returned to his room
and left her to sleep alone. Suddenly she realized that what had happened
between her and Sasuke weeks before had completely been wiped away with feelings
for Kakashi and she smiled.
Sakura looked around her room and noticed that the clothes she had worn the
night before were neatly folded and laid a top the table in the corner of her
room. That certainly wasn�t her doing. On her night stand was a half filled
glass of water with three small white pills laying beside it. So, Kakashi had
stayed here over the night after all, and he fully expected her to feel like
shit in the morning. In the end he really was a smart man.
Sakura reached over to the night stand and threw her head back as she popped
the pills into her dry mouth and chased them with room temperature water. It
didn�t settle well on her stomach but she had enough control to fight the
reflexes of nausea. She was hoping that at least the water would wash the horrid
stale taste that invaded her senses but it wasn�t near enough.
After standing, Sakura made her way to her limited wardrobe and decided to
wear her usual training dress, but the one with sleeves. Surely there must still
be an enormous amount of snow outside. She made a note to hop over to
Kakashi�s room and steal one of his pullover shirts for extra warmth.
Sakura was expecting to see the previous nights makeup smeared all over her
face when she rose up to look in the mirror. It might have actually been like
that, but it wasn�t at all what caught her eye when she spotted her
reflection.
There, falling so lightly above her bare breasts was the crystal snowflake
necklace...which was one thing she distinctly remembered not wearing to the bar
last night.
He had found it, and placed it around her neck as she slept. What did that
mean? It may have been a simple act but to Sakura it seemed immensely intimate.
�I really have to think...� She mumbled to herself while many thoughts
ran through her confused and pained mind. There were too many gestures made by
Kakashi that caused the events of last night to mean more than they should have.

Sakura stood there, in the midst of the flurries of snow falling on her rough
but pale skin. No matter how much she trained in the daylight, her skin would
never darken. It was ok, she didn�t mind. He had told her she looked like a
porcelain doll.
When you looked at a porcelain doll it had this effect over you�you would
do anything just to be able to reach out and touch the smooth porcelain frame.
The feeling of it is was a contradiction in itself, soft as silk and hard as
glass. Porcelain dolls broke with so much as the wrong direction in touch. When
broken, they could never be repaired without the harsh scars showing�making
them appear as a piece of broken hope and lost beauty.
This place was beautiful, like that unbroken porcelain doll. The snow covered
the ground and as she walked forward her feet left soft footprints that followed
her to her destination. It was the spot in which they had trained earlier in the
week. The sky was gray, but not a sullen one. In the distance there was a sign
of the sun beginning to break through. It was the type of day that made you
realize what beauty the world had.
As she moved forward she noticed a figure on a rock a short distance from
where she was. Someone other than them knew of this place, she wasn�t so
surprised. It had been here for so long and for her to be the first one to come
upon it seemed unlikely. She decided she would not disturb them, and instead
continued to walk past, purposely stealthing her steps so she would not alert
them.
Something was familiar, though. She stared at the figure as the snow rested
upon it and decided to take a few steps closer just so she could make out the
face.
Kakashi�
He was sitting there in front of her without even a clue of her presence. She
decided to stay after all, just to watch him. She knew he would probably
recognize her presence after a while, but she would deal with that later. She
didn�t even know how he would react.
It was too difficult to spot detail from this distance but Sakura could tell
that he wasn�t wearing the headband that usually covered his sharingan. In her
mind she could imagine his sharingan staring out over the snow in deep thought.
She wondered what the man in front of her was thinking. The jounin vest that he
usually adorned was not there either, allowing her to make out his form more
easily.
Bare strips of black could be seen under the snow as it dusted his body. It
was apparent that he had not moved in a while. He sat there, completely still,
staring�
What is he thinking of?
Looking at him there made her feel ecstatic but depressed�right but
wrong�she was confused and the feeling it gave her she hated. She loved it
too. Her mind would not think logically with this feeling, yet she could not
imagine living without it there. It was as if she could burst, she didn�t know
how she would stay alive with such intensity.
What are you doing to me�Kakashi�
She had moved her gaze up to the sky, watching the snowflakes fall down to
the cold ground beneath her. She did not notice that the figure vanished from
the rock before her.
Suddenly, Sakura felt warmth at her neck and a firm hand was rested on her
shoulder. It shocked her, jumping in reaction to the touch. She readied her body
to turn and look at the man who had grabbed her, but she was stopped.
�Don�t turn around.� Kakashi�s voice whispered softly into her ear.
�Kakashi��
Each snowflake that hit her body was like a new sensation she had never felt
before. His touch magnified her existence in the moment.
Unexpectedly Kakashi wrapped both arms around Sakura�s chest and pulled her
backwards into him, squeezing tightly to her warmth. Sakura drew her breath in
sharply�she felt as if she would faint. It was overpowering her�she lacked
the concentration to even see so she shut her eyes. Her arms rose from her side
to place her hands on his as he held her from behind.
She could feel his warm breath tickle her ear, another feeling she couldn�t
concentrate on as it caused to many reactions from her body.
�Never change, Sakura�never change this.� He pulled her in even closer,
feeling her chest rise against his arms as her breath quickened at his request.
He could not see her face but her eyes had opened quickly in surprise.
As soon as he had arrived at his place behind her, he left. Sakura quickly
turned around at the loss of his presence. There was nothing where he stood but
two footprints, it was empty. Her eyes scanned the entire area and she felt no
other human presence. Unable to remain standing, she fell into the snow. The
soft snow felt like ice as her knees pressed into it, but she didn�t notice.
This feeling�this feeling helped her to ignore all pain. Be it lust or desire,
it was still a welcome thought.

It was purely physical. Well, maybe it was and maybe it wasn�t but either
way it sure as hell was supposed to be.
One thing was for certain and that was the fact that her emotions were
getting the best of her and she wasn�t paying proper attention to the mission
when it should have been her primary concern. Then again, neither was
Kakashi...the man was nowhere to be found after he vanished in the snow earlier.
She had settled in the lobby of the hotel in front of the fire with her bag
packed and resting beside her. The crystal necklace made sporadic patterns on
the wall as she toyed with it in her hands. The hotel room key had been handed
in and she had only to wait on her partner, who was still nowhere to be found.
He better not start this again...I was actually enjoying his punctuality
for once.
Nearly an hour had passed before Kakashi graced the young woman with his
presence. His bags were packed and quickly he laid the key in front of the clerk
and tossed him some bills. He obviously didn�t care if he overpaid, since it
wasn�t his money.
Sakura had never seen him access the room through this lobby...and then with
second thought she realized that the great Copy Ninja Kakashi probably had
numerous ways to return to his hotel room.
With a smile that was evident through his thin mask, he walked over to Sakura
and leaned over to press his covered lips to her soft cheek. She could do
nothing but return the warmth with a smile that was ever so sweet, but as soon
as he took the seat beside her she began her inquisition.
�What happened last night? I know that... well... and I know we did... but
I don�t know...� She was blushing furiously and was too embarrassed to speak
the words aloud.
�Don�t worry...� He looked at her with a smirk. �You�re still
innocent.�
Sakura let out a sigh of relief. She at least wanted to remember her first
time.
�...sort of.� He added quickly, with a small laugh.
�What?!?!�
�Well let us just say that I won�t be needing that book for a while.�
�Kakashi! You pervert!�
�Pervert? I�m not the one who started it, Miss.
Oh-sensei-I-want-you-so-bad.� Teasing her was one of his most favourite things
to do because her look became so adorable with increased frustration.
�I did not say that.� At that moment Sakura realized how much of a truth
serum alcohol actually was.
Together they set out on the long road back to their hometown, teasing each
other along the way just like before. The journey was expected to be rougher due
to the winter weather and their time of traveling was significantly increased.
The sky had ceased sending it�s snowflakes to the earth around noon and the
sun began to peep through the last of the dismal clouds. The two ninja were
happy to find out that the small town had been the hardest hit area, receiving
almost a foot of snowfall. The closer they made it to Konoha, the less snow
there was. They were traveling in about six inches of snow when they decided to
rest for the night. The winds were picking up and Sakura could feel her cheeks
chapping against the sharp cold bite.
They were both out of breath the second they stopped. Sakura had made it
farther than Kakashi had expected in such extreme weather conditions. Her face
was as red as the dress she wore underneath his oversized shirt. He smirked at
the sight of her all worn out and in his clothes.
In fact, Sakura was so exhausted that when Kakashi prodded her to gather
firewood she couldn�t move. The girl sure had determination and that was a
trait to take great pride in. In the end Kakashi prepared the fire himself as he
let her rest against the cold bark of a tree. She was huddled up into a ball and
shivering from the harsh air.
As soon as the fire was roaring, the older ninja took his place next to her
and he pulled her in tightly to his chest. She was freezing and he was sure
neither of them would mind sharing body heat. In response she looked up at him
and smiled. It may have been an easy mission, but she was sure that it would not
have gone as smoothly if he had not been with her.
�How much longer do you think we have?� Her voice came out slightly
cracked from her dry throat.
�One day, at least. Depends on this damn weather.� Kakashi rubbed his
hands up and down the length of her arm to create warmth from the friction.
Sakura didn�t respond with further conversation, instead she just nodded.
The longer the silence grew, the more Kakashi found himself thinking. For the
first time in almost his entire life, he had begun to think of his future. These
thoughts had only come to him during the course of this mission. He didn�t
know what triggered them...he supposed he was just finally feeling his age. All
the talk they had over hopes and dreams did no good for him when he realized
that he did not even have a plan.
�Sakura, what should I make of myself?� He asked her for he knew how well
she could hold up a semi-philosophical conversation from the last time they
spoke over the fire.
�Haven�t you already made it?� A soft voice responded in curiousity.
She had believed him to be one of the best ninja in Konoha and he had already
made quite the name for himself.
�No...�
�What do you mean, then?�
�Should I carry on my father�s name or should I fight as a ninja until I
die? I mean, I always just automatically assumed the latter one but I never
stopped to think about it.� There were pros and cons to both, he gathered. The
pro involved with continuing as a full-time ninja was simply the fact that
nothing would change.
�I can�t give you the answer to that question. I just don�t know.�
�What about you? What do you want to do?�
�I don�t know that either, I�m still young. I figure I have enough time
to think about that later.�
�I�m running out of time, I think.� He sighed.
�Better think fast, old man.� Her giggle was audible as she poked
innocent fun at his age.
�I resent that.� He shot her an amused look and then his face once more
fell to seriousness, �I don�t want to die yet.�
�Then there is part of your answer as to what you want to do.�
�...I�m too happy.� At these words Sakura felt the familiar sensation
of her stomach turning the pleasant flips and the small butterflies fluttering
around. She wasn�t quite sure what her reaction was telling her, but still it
was very welcome.
�Still no dream?�
�No, just my purpose.� He pulled her in closer to him in affirmation of
his statement.
�Well I suppose you could keep track of what future you daydream about the
most.�
�Maybe...which do you think of most?�
�I think about you too damn much, sensei.� She buried her head into the
warmth of his chest and her hands made their way around his waist.
�Sakura...� He hadn�t expected her to say that. He wasn�t the least
bit prepared for the conversation to take a turn such as this.
�This is just physical, right? It�s just a normal fling, right?� She
searched for assurance within his face as she caught his gaze with hers.
�I don�t know�� He had intended it to be purely physical, but never
before in his past relationships had he had that feeling deep in the pit of his
stomach. The feeling that even the one night they had together could change his
entire life. He seemed to ease his mind at the thought that their relationship
just felt a little more intimate because of their past friendship and the
tension they created.
Together they slept there under the newly emerging stars.

Konoha was in sight. The city gates were visible across the vast field that
they stood in. It was also the field in which they had spent many days training
as teacher and student. That time seemed so long ago to both of them.
�Are you ready?� Kakashi glanced over at his partner in slight concern.
�Ready for?� She had forgotten all about what had happened. Kakashi
proved to be a true remedy after all!
�To see him. We haven�t spoken of it lately.�
�Ah. See, I forgot! So I guess that means I am.� She laughed and brushed
the subject away. In truth the memory did not leave her feeling sad or violated
anymore...it just left her feeling a little bit angry, �You will be next to
me, right?�
�Yes.�
�Then you can hold me back when I attempt to kick his ass.� A wave of
confident laughter filled the air and Kakashi smiled. Unable to help himself he
pulled her in for a kiss that was soft and sweet even with the separation of the
mask.
�One more time.� Reaching up, Sakura�s fingers slipped beneath the edge
of the fabric covering the handsome face and tugged it down to reveal his
mysterious features. Instinctively Kakashi once more crashed his lips into hers.
This time the kiss was more intense and it reminded them both of the desire
shared between them.
�Keep your hands off me in public, Sakura-chan.� It came out with
an obvious amount of regret. Her head nodded, insinuating that she understood
the consequences of others finding out about their physical relationship.
�I don�t think it�s me that you have to worry about... you are the one
that can�t restrain himself.� While laughing at her own comment she tore
herself away from him and ran towards the gates. Quickly he reacted and chased
after her. If he could catch her then he planned on tossing her to the ground
and torturing her right then and there...but alas she was faster than he
expected on the last leg of the journey.
�Race ya.� She spoke as she stopped in front of the gate with him only a
few steps behind.
