In Tsunade's Office

For the last hour, Minato had told us everything he knew about Gaara, and his siblings. I paid attention, but at this point I was too lost in daydreams for Tsunade.

Tsunade was listening more intently than me. Her expression never wavering. Her lipstick pink, and her lips incredibly smooth. Just staring at her face made my cock stir. She used to be called 'the legendary sucker.' I liked to imagine exactly why.

"Okay," said Tsunade, "I have no further questions. You may be gone now." With a bow, Minato and his family left. Leaving the five of us remaining in the room.

"Tsunade," said Sakura, but a simple wave of Tsunades hand quieted her. Tsunade put her chin on her hand, and glanced at me for just a moment.

"No need Sakura," said Tsunade, "I trust your judgement. But we have even more work ahead of us now." Tsunade began to rub her temples. "That's all for another day though, please get some rest."

Shikamaru gave a lazy bow and was gone. Sakura took a moment longer, and began to walk out. I had to wonder whether I would ever team with her again, or even speak to her again?

"Oh," said Sakura, "Alain."

Sakura seemed nervous brushing hair behind her ear. I could suddenly see Shizune becoming interested in what Sakura was saying.

"It was really great working with you." Sakura's eyes flicked over to Shizune. "We should have coffee sometime." Thank god coffee existed even in the apocalypse.

"I'll hold you to it," I said. Sakura walked out smiling with an obvious sway in her hips, and I did my best not to watch.

Tsunade looked at me very seriously. I bowed quickly. Still she looked at me without a change in her expression, until her tongue came out of her mouth and ever so slowly traced her lips.

"Sweet dreams," said Tsunade.

When I left sleep was the last thing on my mind.
