The Old Biddy

Chapter 6-Controversy Alleviated

"You still with me, Kakashi?" Sakura laughed softly, still cupping his face in her hands.

Kakashi slowly opened up his one obsidian eye and smiled down at her.

"I just need to catch my breath." He panted.

"I never thought I'd see the day when I'd wear out the famous Copy Nin Sharingan Kakashi." Sakura teased.

"Woman, I'm doin' most of the work here!"

Sakura giggled.

"I'm doing the best I can to do my fair share, Kakashi, but it's kinda hard when I'm pinned beneath someone bigger than me!"

"Oh, right." Kakashi said, lifting himself off and slipping himself out of her for the first time since he had entered her late that night.

They both moaned at losing the connection that they had held for such a long time, but they really did need to take a break. They were only human after all. They'd just have to find some other way to connect...like snuggling. Well, at least until they had both recovered well enough for their next bout of lovemaking.

Kakashi plopped down next to Sakura on his side of the bed and stretched his arms open for her. She obligingly crawled into them and laid her head down on his chest, placing a hand on his still racing heart.

"We will have to leave this room at some point you know?" She murmured.

Kakashi softly kissed the crown of her head and gently rubbed the arm she had across his chest.

"Not if I can help it." He said quietly.

"Kakashi! We gotta eat sometime!"

"Room service." He said off-handedly.

"We'll get sore!" Sakura protested.

"Hence, the snuggling break." Kakashi stated matter-of-factly, giving her a little squeeze as if to prove his point.

"But still!"

"I've got great stamina, Sakura. I can go for hours, days even."

"Maybe you can, Kakashi, but I can't!"

"Another thing I'll have to teach you." Kakashi smirked.

Sakura lifted her head up and caught the look on his face.

"You're serious, aren't you?"

"Very serious."

"Gah! What did I get myself into?" Sakura said weakly, laying her head back down on his chest.

"Don't worry, Sakura. I'll be gentle." Kakashi said comfortingly.

"You haven't been so far!" Sakura cried. "I mean, well, yeah, at first you are, but then towards the end..."

"Sorry about that." Kakashi said sincerely.

"It's okay. I know it can't be helped. It's just that you're so, so..."

Fast? Powerful? Big?

"Am I wearing you out?" Kakashi broke in.

"I'm just afraid I won't be able to walk again!" Sakura relented.

"I'll carry you in my arms."

"As romantic as that sounds, Kakashi, I'm still the one who has to deal with the pain."

"I'm sore, too, you know?"

Without meaning to, they both looked down at his flaccid length at the same time. Sakura tentatively reached down and touched it experimentally, brushing her fingertips lightly against it. It twitched. Sakura's eyes widened in surprise. She lightly brushed her fingers against it again, and again it twitched.

"Sakura...It's not a toy."

"Oh! Sorry!" Sakura blushed.

"Don't be. I'm not complaining!" Kakashi laughed. "But if you know what's good for you, you might want to stop playing with it right now, especially if you're afraid of being sore as you said you were."

But Sakura naughtily brushed her fingers slowly against it again, causing it to twitch and literally grow before her very eyes.

"Sakura...are you listening to a word I'm saying?" Kakashi asked in his "sensei" voice.

"I'm sorry! I've just never seen it actually do that before!"

"Sakura, that's what happens when you rub it!"

"I know! I just think it's interesting that I can have that kind of effect on it!"

"Sakura, you've always had that kind of effect on it."

Sakura immediately shot up from his chest and looked him straight in the eye.

"Ew! Even when I was twelve?!" Sakura asked aghast.

"Okay, maybe not always!" Kakashi quickly backpedaled.

When Sakura continued to look at him with disgust, Kakashi felt his face burn in embarrassment.

"I'm not a pedophile, Sakura!"

Silence.

"I'm not!"

Still silence.

"For crying out loud, Sakura! It took me until you were 22 to finally sleep with you! I'm not a pedophile!"

"Better not be!" Sakura huffed and laid her head back down on his chest, but with a slight frown still on her face.

"Sakura, trust me, I didn't start having feelings for you until they were appropriate, okay? I mean, did I ever act or treat you inappropriately when you were younger?"

"No."

"Did I ever insinuate that I wanted to do anything with you other than what was appropriate when you were still my student?"

"No."

"Did I ever touch you the wrong way or say anything to you the wrong way when you were still in my care?"

"No."

"Then you should know I'm not a pedophile, Sakura! It took me a long time to finally notice you and that was mainly because I did know you were still too young. But when you did finally grow up and turned into this amazing young woman, how could I not take notice?"

"So it was all about my body then was it?"

"Sakura, no! Didn't we go through all this already last night?!"

Kakashi lifted Sakura's chin up and made her look him straight in the eye.

"Haruno Sakura, I respect you, I admire you, and God knows I love you, deeply, and for a very long time. Don't you dare think that I'm only in this relationship to get in your pants!"

Sakura's eyes softened and she looked back into Kakashi's one open eye with a knowing look. Kakashi's breath hitched. At this point, he knew that look.

"Sakura, I thought you just said..."

"I know what I said, Kakashi, but just make love to me anyway, okay?"

Because, gentlemen, there's no surer way of getting into a woman's pants than saying you want her for who she is and not for what she can put out.
