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 haha534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRN02Iope5
Summary: [Post-series] It’s his birthday, and Sasuke has decided that he has had enough.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bnjfE7WxL

It happens once everyone has left.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiCbY4mFX7

“I—I brought you something,” Karin states, looking the other way, “for your birthday.”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BfLnY4I6y
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx6ZJzcvrz
His eyes clung to the small bottle for a moment, mind whirling with questions.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGGSdSczJK
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT1zS40o13
“You brought me perfume?” he inquires, stunned, gaze flickering to her face.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy990zxt4WE
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNij6oKFu6
Karin pulls at the neck of her shirt, her voice startlingly hoarse.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkp3U8uAFY4
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjteEoQ4omj
“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?!”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtAPeu4ASA
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaNchprRdx
But Sasuke barely listens to a word she says, too busy replaying Suigetsu’s words.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDvKpjm5ST
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGmus8MyFc
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!534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupZ63zCiTS
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHbCDrYGaN
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.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlewbvaxxN3
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk2Rhx1W4o
Karin, however, has always adamantly denied it; or at least never confirmed it.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7to6OnoMU
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5woRscP4oo
Until today, that is, the Uchiha decides, hardening his expression.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJOISwMixX
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d47xJ9QHy
Sasuke is not willing to let the matter go this time.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51oXtGAQqI

“When girls give handmade gifts to a guy, it usually means something.”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOuWGUoT9K

Obviously not expecting his words, all Karin can do is part her lips and splutter a “W-what—?”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡao0vQ42bz4
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjTEbJtQw5
But Sasuke is bracing himself and cutting her off before she can even attempt to gather her composure. “Does it mean something, now?”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtYsrZTMyN
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnl4YEtVrM
“W—wh… who cares about that, Sasuke?! Will, you just take the damn thing already—!”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgcI4MS1aW
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaGfz9zWdP
“Does it, Karin?”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7co4NuFrY
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJU39gHsLR9
The answer is whispered so softly that he almost misses it.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzanvB0jxhW
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG4qOc79g9
“…Yes.”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYO8sYNrrRs
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc252RKTvg
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—?!”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHDbuc0vwX
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkZinp0pMv
Natural as breathing, Sasuke shuts her up with a kiss.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJmRedAU6w
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4zajo0RoB
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.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaGCFNGQlT
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfNjSBbNG3
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.534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp2umqNrpi
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4GeTQPH60
“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?”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW480zMMuOE
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelwkRjpLsV
“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.”534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRsMHjUEIo

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 haha534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPN43xJBCrF
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbnAX282Nr
So yes, happy birthday Sasuke~! ♥
