Author's Notes: A light-hearted, crack-ish one-shot featuring a more traditional take on Karin’s tsundere qualities, plus a more self-aware Sasuke who has already settled his issues. So yup, post-series haha493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9ETuOv9Yu
Summary: [Post-series] It’s his birthday, and Sasuke has decided that he has had enough.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunDxUtiqEI

It happens once everyone has left.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirh233M5my

“I—I brought you something,” Karin states, looking the other way, “for your birthday.”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq8dFaedqM
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Nla1jRwSe
His eyes clung to the small bottle for a moment, mind whirling with questions.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbw0wocR5O
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuWSnqw14x
“You brought me perfume?” he inquires, stunned, gaze flickering to her face.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2hJ9uKly9
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYpiUV7Pv7
Karin pulls at the neck of her shirt, her voice startlingly hoarse.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoIyJyPcGG
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMtnmheZST
“More like made it, actually, but—” she goes a little red at the ears and before he can even blink Karin is back to being the brash and forward girl he knows so well. “Pft, not that it matters! Will you take it or not? Just tell me already so I can leave! I have things to do, you know?!”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01O8pqvyi1
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s2qaVxvhZ
But Sasuke barely listens to a word she says, too busy replaying Suigetsu’s words.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbkMpxfDmU
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs7SVCHFN5
Karin’s crazy about you, man. Why do you think she put up with all the shit you put her through? She would have blasted my balls off to next Sunday if it had been me in your shoes!493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBvQFobpYg
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3hvpLO88h
Such had been Suigetsu being the crude but eloquent way of letting Sasuke know that Karin loved him—or had loved him, once. Sasuke had refused to believe it, at first; but since then, he has had more than enough time to put two and two together, and he has to acknowledge that everything did add up.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORRRwoY8aO
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7JhIGYICE
Karin, however, has always adamantly denied it; or at least never confirmed it.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV23fhx1IgA
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPNqV1BxrU
Until today, that is, the Uchiha decides, hardening his expression.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifmu46Zyca
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7pc2c0SHG
Sasuke is not willing to let the matter go this time.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVUsxPL5xk

“When girls give handmade gifts to a guy, it usually means something.”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAe1TSxrUP

Obviously not expecting his words, all Karin can do is part her lips and splutter a “W-what—?”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARDMuCgwaq
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzlfXb1B15
But Sasuke is bracing himself and cutting her off before she can even attempt to gather her composure. “Does it mean something, now?”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUNAVNs52A
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVz1PDF8FRt
“W—wh… who cares about that, Sasuke?! Will, you just take the damn thing already—!”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0H46J6Ky5O
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG7b7avVtP
“Does it, Karin?”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwFYmPHtHN
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1lNdhCSq9
The answer is whispered so softly that he almost misses it.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZT3rDysjBZ
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEkk93WeHu
“…Yes.”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BUlnZR3Xg
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0EjROup8O
Sasuke’s eyes widen. After a breath, Karin’s do, too, and she hurries to push her glasses further up her nose and clear her throat. “I—I mean, maybe. How am I supposed t—?!”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ttBUkgmNl
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuq20soClFB
Natural as breathing, Sasuke shuts her up with a kiss.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIZgebBB6R
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQJ92MHFAs
It’s his first, and this seems to be something he won’t be a natural at—it’s sloppy, tense, and tentative; but despite the shortcomings, it feels right. Like this is what he was supposed to be doing, and Sasuke relishes that feeling the most.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjguLzySAkc
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFz1iLALTI
When they part, Sasuke is greeted with the sight of Karin’s half-lidded eyes and dazed gaze, her cheeks colored two shades lighter than her hair—and as he feels the skin of her neck turn to gooseflesh under his fingertips, he finds himself falling for her all over again.493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hRs8tZ47F
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5h4HAOD3n
“So,” and though he tries to sound casual—as if his heart wasn’t beating just as hard as hers was—it’s too easy to hear the smile that slips into his face. He figures he must look ridiculous, but he finds that he doesn’t quite care. “Is it a yes or a maybe, Karin?”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4gCLhIsUl
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk3g2L7qDQ
“Oh, just shut up, Sasuke,” the redhead demands airily, and in one swift movement she has taken her glasses off and has thrown her arms around his neck, a roguish grin curving her lips, “and kiss me again.”493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMehIToN5GP

The idea for this was born while reading a fantastic LinZin piece by Oh Dee, which inspired the dialogues about hand-made gifts “usually meaning something” (which Sasuke knows better than anyone thanks to the myriad of fangirls he used to have, ofc)~ and of course, I couldn’t resist playing up Karin’s tsundere-ness haha493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafugLfBVOC
493Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqomq57Qwlt
So yes, happy birthday Sasuke~! ♥
