Chapter Summary: Over the years they had spend at each others’ side, she had come to knew him better then anyone.
Hidden behind a curtain of rapidly falling water, Sakura watched Sasuke-kun from the cave’s entrance. The cave was theirs, they often occupy it during Raiton trainings whenever they stayed at the nearby base. In her opinion, neither of them should spend more time than necessary in Orochimaru or Kabuto’s presence. Although normally she would have loved to watch Sasuke-kun train, something was bothering her love that day. She could see it in his posture – his very being was disturbed.
“Chidori Kōken!”
Sakura winced as electricity crackled above the surface of the small lake. She didn’t recognize the technique Sasuke-kun had used, but suspected that it was a derived form of his ‘Chidori Nagashi’ or ‘Kusanagi no Tsurugi: Chidorigatana’. For a moment, the pinkette marveled about how different their Raiton techniques had become. In the last three years, Sasuke had put a great deal of development into the Chidori’s ability to manipulate lightning elemental nature chakra. Back in Konoha, nobody had bothered to teach her anything, but Sasuke had invested a great deal of time in her mastery of nature transformation techniques. Well, he did it in return for lessons about the delicate art of Genjutsu, the jutsu Uchiha Itachi favored above all other types.
Waiting for the last surges of electricity to disappear, Sakura moved out of the cave, passing through the waterfall. It was like the cascading water could wash away her sins, even for only a single moment. Her hand slowly inched towards her weapon, removing it from its holster and with a flick of her wrist she sent it flying towards her raven haired lover.
Sasuke felt the incoming projectile rather than seeing it. The Last Uchiha grabbed the approaching weapon slicing through thin air. The dagger was familiar in his hands – he knew the owner of the iron nail.
His dark eyes followed the chain which connected the blade to its owner who was still holding the other end, a ring which served as a second handle. Sasuke’s face shifted in a minuscule sign of surprise when his gaze rested on Sakura, in her almost undressed state. She was still wearing her shorts, gloves and nin-sandals, but she had removed her rope belts and discarded her blouse in favor of a sarashi.
In an instant, his surroundings dimmed as his attention was fully absorbed by the girl. Constant vigilance had deserted him – it was replaced by heat that had began to gather in his loins. He wanted the warm body that stood in front of him, he wanted every part of her. Sometimes he felt like she was the only one that could give his life any meaning aside from vengeance.
His eyes trailed over her face and found himself pleased that her colors had returned. The last time he saw her, when they had crossed paths as he was leaving for his mission while she had just returned from her own, she had been so pale.
“Is something bothering you?” she spoke softly while her hand pulled the chain, signifying that she wanted the Uchiha to release her dagger, which he did. “Your last mission?”
Sasuke sheathed his sword. “I saw the Dobe,” he said, but his voice indicated that he didn’t want to talk about it. He knew Sakura loved pleasing him, but sometimes she could choose to ignore his wishes if she thought that talking would help him.
“I see…,” by the tone of her voice, she knew it too and continued anyway. “What happened?”
“Whatever he was doing, he was on a mission … we fought side by side, I guess.” Sasuke clenched his hands, eyes closing against his will. For a moment, he was back in the Land of Sky and Naruto’s whisper was just as clear. “But what bothers me are his last words, ‘I’ll definitely bring you and Sakura-chan back to Konoha!’ he said.”
“It doesn’t matter. Naruto doesn’t matter.” Sakura walked towards him, placed her arms around his neck and forced Sasuke to look at her. “Orochimaru, Kabuto, even me… we don’t matter as long you fulfill your ambition.”
“I wouldn’t have cared if he died, but we worked together to defend Shinnō.” He couldn’t take his eyes off her. Sasuke reached out, running his hands through her long pale tresses. Her hair felt like silk between his fingers, as was her skin. Lightly, he allowed his fingertips to trace the delicious curve of her jaw line.
“You are not your brother, Sasuke-kun.”
Sakura placed her lips against his. Her tongue brushed his lips, asking for permission to enter, which he granted. She kissed him passionately, exploring and prodding the inside of his mouth. Her breast pressed against his bare chest, the thin strips of fabric did little to hide the prove of her arousal. When they separated due to lack of air, he heard Sakura’s question. Her voice was shaking slightly in her insecurity.
“Did you miss me?”
“I don’t know,” Sasuke smirked playfully. He began to unwind the long strip of cloth that covered her chest. His hasty work implied that he did actually miss her although he didn’t say it out loud. If Sasuke was ever impatient, then it was in situations like these where he just wanted to rip her clothes off and take her right there and then.
Sakura pulled him towards the cave behind the waterfall for more privacy. She suppressed a shiver when his fingers brushed over hard peaks of her breast on purpose. His breath brushed against her neck as he whispered in her ear.
“You were always a provocative little minx.”
“I will take that as compliment.”

Author’s Note: While it started serious this chapter ended in a lighter note. This actually the first chapter where Sasuke proves he can be hormonal teenager. I wanted show that in LLW Sasuke is a 15 or 16 year old boy here… meaning he has hormones! Hormones Kishi, Fricking HORMONES! Like a normal boy his age he thinks about sex and everything that comes with it. Also I am currently working on a timeline fotr LLW which will uploaded on one of my blogs. Also I’d like to thank Asha3 to take the time to edit this chapter.
Trivia
❦ Sarashi (さらし, Sarashi)
A Sarashi is a long, winding strip of cloth, usually thick cotton, wrapped tightly around the midriff and chest. Historically worn by the samurai under their kimono to resist injury, modern delinquents and Yakuza wore sarashi under their coat or unbuttoned shirt as sign of their strength; trading off of the samurai image. For girls the sarashi may also be used as a substitute bra, wrapping and tying down the breasts to keep them secure when moving, or to simply flatten their bust to avoid attention. Here is a example of what sarashi looks like, on a woman that is.
❦ After his defection, Sasuke behaved more aggressively whenever he met Naruto, going so far as attempting to kill him to prove a point. However, in the 2nd Shippuuden movie, while he still supposedly says “he doesn’t care” about Naruto or his safety, he had no problem working with Naruto to defeat Shinnō, even acknowledging his presence in brief moments without contempt, anger, or indifference.
Jutsupedia
Chidori Kōken
Name: Chidori Kōken (千鳥硬剣, Chidori Sword「Literal English, One Thousand Birds Sword」)
Type: Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow, Kenjutsu, Lightning Release, A-rank, Offensive, Defensive, Short to Mid range (0-10m)
User(s): Uchiha Sasuke
Chidori Kōken technique derived from Chidori Nagashi (千鳥流し, Chidori Current) and a variation of Kusanagi no Tsurugi: Chidorigatana (草薙の剣・千鳥刀, Kusanagi Sword: Chidori Katana). Sasuke uses his chokuto sword to channel an extremely powerful Chidori (千鳥, Chidori) capable of shocking anything in its path. It appears to have an even greater range than Chidori Nagashi, making it more effective in battle. It can be noted that this technique is more of a use on water, because the lightning current produced is carried on the entire surface making it more difficult for the enemy to avoid it.
