Sakura may be able to hold her drink a lot better than most people, being the student of the legendary Tsunade, but that doesn’t mean she can’t get drunk. And right now, she’s definitely tipsy, leaning her head against Karin’s shoulder and beaming up at her girlfriend. “You know,” she says, serious but happy. “I really love you.”

Karin snorts. “Ew,” she says teasingly. “That’s so sappy, Sakura. I think I might vomit.”

Sakura makes a face at her. “Don’t throw up on me. Suigetsu’s right there. He deserves it.” She points, and yeah, Suigetsu is completely conked out in the armchair right next to them.

“Okay,” says Karin, and she grins. “That’s definitely the most romantic shit you’ve ever said.”

She grins right back. “Romantic enough for a kiss?”

“Wait, Sasuke!” He turns, slightly, at the sound of Sakura’svoice – she has a heavy backpack on, he notes with alarm, and he takes a stepback. “I’m coming with you,” she says, very firmly, and he pales.

That was exactly what he was afraid of.

“Sakura,” he tells her, and he’s going to be as blunt aspossible because he thought she had LONG gotten his through his head, but heguesses not. “I’m not interested in you.”

She stares at him. “Al… right?”

Okay, uh- “You coming along on this trip isn’t going to make me be interested in you.”

Sakura doesn’t stop staring. “You… think I haven’t gottenover you yet?”

“…Yes?”

She bursts into laughter. She laughs so fucking hard she hasto pull off her backpack, hands on her knees and wheeze out laughter, tears springing to her eyes. “Oh, oh my god!Sasuke, I’m a fucking lesbian!”

Oh.

Well.

This is suddenly really, really awkward.

“So… why do you want to come with me?”

She straightens up, wiping her eyes, and grins at him. “You’restopping to see Team Taka before you go off on your lonesome, right? I justwant to see Karin.”

“Oh.” And that’spossibly the most relieving answer he could have EVER received, and he givesher a small smile in return. “Okay. You can come then.”

Sakura laughs a little, pulling on her backpack, and fallsinto step with him. “Still in love with you! Honestly! As if!”

“Rude.”

“You did try tokill me, Sasuke!”

“I tried to kill Naruto, and he’s still in love with me.”

 After a few moments, Sakura forces herself up with a grown. Karin shivers at the sudden loss of warmth. “What’re you doing?”

Sakura shivers herself, giving Karin a weak smile. “Building a campfire,” she says. “It’s freezing.”

Karin wants to pout, but she has to admit Sakura’s right. “Shove a bunch of sticks in a pile,” she tells her. “I’ll handle the rest.”

Sakura nods, starting to pile them up, while Karin hunts for the scroll in her pack that holds her sealed up blankets. She bites her thumb, swiping the blood across them in a flourish and pulled them out. She layers them, wrapping half of them around herself and leaving the other half of the blankets for Sakura.

Her girlfriend snorts, amused, dropping the last sticks off and then settling down next to her. “I didn’t know Naruto knit you two blankets,” she says.

Karin grins. “Juugo knit one.” With that, she flips her fingers through a few handsigns, blowing a gentle, thin stream of fire through her fingers to light the sticks. It takes a few moments, but the kindling alights, and she sits back with contentment.

“Very nice chakra control,” Sakura says, and okay, so maybe Karin was showing off, but what’s wrong with that?

It probably won’t get done for awhile because it’s gonna be an awful long oneshot aksldjf but thank you!!

Already answered three!

What’s your favorite line of dialogue?

for one........ give her a gf. like. all sakura/girl-her-age ships are valid. sakura/ino? a classic. sakuhina? a soft romance. sakuten? sakukarin? sakukarui? etc etc? GIVE HER A GIRLFRIEND LIKE RIGHT... NOW.

endgame sakura should be her w/ a gf, running the hospital and having her only lil genin team (ALL OF WHICH ARE LIL FIGHTING BADASS MEDICS HELPLESSLY IN LOVE W/ SAKURA-SENSEI), absolutely run ragged and ‘sleep what is sleep’ but having the time of her LIFE. sometimes naruto comes in and is like HEY KIDDOS IM GONNA BE UR SENSEI TODAY BC SAKURA IS SLEEPING and they’re like omggg the hokage ur almost as cool as sakura-sensei and she’s passed out at home bc sasuke or sai or kakashi or yamato knocked her out, took her home, and carefully tucked her in
