[ Sakura sits at the bar, nursing a bottle of sake. She's alone, but she doesn't really mind it or the pathology it implies. She's had a bad few days... months... years... ]

[sweet_oleander]

Okay, okay.

[ No, never, except all of those times she, you know, spurned his advances and punched him into the stratosphere and stuff. ]

[ramenosis]

[we don't talk about that

BUYS HER A FRUITY SWEET DRINK and plops down in the seat next to her]

So, uhhh, does Ino do that a lot? Sit in your lap?

[might look hopeful]

[sweet_oleander]

[ Sakura just gives him a look like not even going to address your ridiculousness, Naruto. But she does accept his drink. ]

Don't start.

[ramenosis]

[he should take the hint and shut up but this is important information

whines a little]

Whaaaat? C'mon!!

[you can whisper it look he's leaning close to hear it]

[sweet_oleander]

[ Sakura leans closer, too. Just as her lips brush past his ear, she pulls back and flicks it with her thumb and forefinger. The look on her face is half annoyance, half affection. ]

Pervert.

[ramenosis]

[Some part excitement and part terror and all 'holy crap Sakura-chan is really close' shoots down his spine and might have taken a detour around his crotch.

Only to have him wince and clamp a hand on his ear with a yelp.]

Ow! Sakura-chan...

[rubs his ear a little] Isn't Ino the pervert for bein' the one to sit in your lap?

[sweet_oleander]

[ SIGH. ]

You deserved it. She's just an affectionate drunk.

[ramenosis]

[blinks

GRIIIINS]

What if I'm an affectionate drunk too?

[sweet_oleander]

[ Oy. Sakura can barely handle one outrageous blonde trying to make out with her while intoxicated, she doesn't think she can handle two.

Sakura is torn between shoving him in Ino's direction (pro: less annoying, con: Naruto and Ino flirting which is somehow UNACCEPTIBLE) and keeping him away from her FOREVER (pro: no flirting, con: more annoying.

She decides to stick with teasing. ]

Then I'm sure tons of eligible bachelors will jump to buy you drinks, too.

[ramenosis]

[Bach...elors?]

AUGH! DON'T SAY THAT!

[covers both ears now like THAT MIGHT BLOCK IT AND MAKE IT GO AWAY]

Sakura-chaaaaaaaaaaaan! Not you too!

[sweet_oleander]

[ Sakura laughs -- a real, genuine laugh that reaches her eyes -- and reaches over to ruffle his hair. ]

Sorry, sorry.

[ramenosis]

[fine he forgives you but only because you're Sakura

MOPES AND DRINKS HIS ALCOHOL]

[sweet_oleander]

Stop that, it's pathetic.

[ramenosis]

[only pretending to mope now

head on his arms on the bar]

[sweet_oleander]

[ Pokes his side. ]

[ramenosis]

[NO

jolts and laughs loudly while squirming away]

[sweet_oleander]

You're such an idiot.

[ But she loves him. She's been handling it well, but the alcohol is making her a little emotional. The sentiment definitely bleeding into her voice. ]

If you're feeling so affectionate, you should find Ino. She's probably looking for a new lap.

[ramenosis]

[He's still snickering a little from the poke.]

Yeah, but you're the one that let's affectionate people sit in 'em!

[Grins towards her lap]

Or you could...y'know--

[SIT IN HIS~~]

[sweet_oleander]

No.

[ramenosis]

[OUCH she didn't even give him a chance to ask

back to moping]
