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 haha527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xO8rltjbX
Summary: [Post-series] It’s his birthday, and Sasuke has decided that he has had enough.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQIJ2DxNh3

It happens once everyone has left.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbGXiOMLI5
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndZH2grUUt
“I—I brought you something,” Karin states, looking the other way, “for your birthday.”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxp19osKlBt
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkUPeiVcI3
His eyes clung to the small bottle for a moment, mind whirling with questions.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJzkvScUZu
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUrNmqsG8B
“You brought me perfume?” he inquires, stunned, gaze flickering to her face.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy6hOysiiH
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XMTlijiJh
Karin pulls at the neck of her shirt, her voice startlingly hoarse.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QKVIfZrBd
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWOeutceS5
“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?!”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMHT9027Fs
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I4W1Ql2Gd
But Sasuke barely listens to a word she says, too busy replaying Suigetsu’s words.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNelbvchBQ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtaIakOjDV
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!527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySa8amBeuc
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzlAcA0Wel
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.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wfgC5XJgq
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbxiKgNsrV
Karin, however, has always adamantly denied it; or at least never confirmed it.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE46IaiwGsG
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10XkQYImpE
Until today, that is, the Uchiha decides, hardening his expression.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZPIpkBbS6
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpylzv8jeo3
Sasuke is not willing to let the matter go this time.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GHqR3i8Fe

“When girls give handmade gifts to a guy, it usually means something.”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ7mY5YW9L

Obviously not expecting his words, all Karin can do is part her lips and splutter a “W-what—?”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nlGHDOk4v
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4LUjixoSQ
But Sasuke is bracing himself and cutting her off before she can even attempt to gather her composure. “Does it mean something, now?”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphSgtbc2G7
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRxsA9wgEF
“W—wh… who cares about that, Sasuke?! Will, you just take the damn thing already—!”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoE693WqoV
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NdkGPJ23s
“Does it, Karin?”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULx42m7xZP
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUhRuIEJLr
The answer is whispered so softly that he almost misses it.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ivNQmH1J0
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15h2pXIIcv
“…Yes.”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGZ4oHLrcw
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyUxpAGFOg
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—?!”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAneRKTHFD
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZkevK0Qq0
Natural as breathing, Sasuke shuts her up with a kiss.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvt5vNPhdt
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnde4BuKGoc
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.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gzy89dMbW
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pGWCRoUjO
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.527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlevpOamfSW
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ85ZwlOHlf
“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?”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGJhLandZk
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGMxw2HDEy
“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.”527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrEpBTd1t6

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 haha527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykO7fyhL23
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWejeYiVGnr
So yes, happy birthday Sasuke~! ♥
