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 haha466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4JzW2xKzq
Summary: [Post-series] It’s his birthday, and Sasuke has decided that he has had enough.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CgeJubzxG

It happens once everyone has left.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfNta99G6L

“I—I brought you something,” Karin states, looking the other way, “for your birthday.”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhruVcvX3Nu

His eyes clung to the small bottle for a moment, mind whirling with questions.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEiGXNvjGD
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrUUvRIqtv
“You brought me perfume?” he inquires, stunned, gaze flickering to her face.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjFoQp3cwz
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs3PiUxvOC
Karin pulls at the neck of her shirt, her voice startlingly hoarse.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJjAvexg86
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOl3Ak2zKt
“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?!”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXE1tL4VYWp
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTC2lKKMqrD
But Sasuke barely listens to a word she says, too busy replaying Suigetsu’s words.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSCxMCpzIy
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShcnn7QP3h
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!466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCNKIKpLr8
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO278ZWlmu
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.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFZmxKUhLD
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJM4MGxemH
Karin, however, has always adamantly denied it; or at least never confirmed it.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7meGiQhlFa
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS7Yg3Yicn
Until today, that is, the Uchiha decides, hardening his expression.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMRpf8oEqJ
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rMBUSyS0d
Sasuke is not willing to let the matter go this time.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyNCe2gWnq

“When girls give handmade gifts to a guy, it usually means something.”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkRzxes1QG

Obviously not expecting his words, all Karin can do is part her lips and splutter a “W-what—?”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEeTpBylPu
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GgqGNHobm
But Sasuke is bracing himself and cutting her off before she can even attempt to gather her composure. “Does it mean something, now?”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomauWYbar5
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXopMpQzhZv
“W—wh… who cares about that, Sasuke?! Will, you just take the damn thing already—!”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYcAvURURK
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHYPiTFplG
“Does it, Karin?”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroH37P52kr
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLspCL2ud6
The answer is whispered so softly that he almost misses it.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6ocyeKAO7
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUJpDbTBap
“…Yes.”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyURDJLFyIL
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XXduqndi3
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—?!”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeKim2zY9L
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1Zde9QMTl
Natural as breathing, Sasuke shuts her up with a kiss.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyxvnACWRn
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ph2J0kjhv
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.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXx9FJ0vXrw
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2xzICcPzW
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.466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpz7vupjpP
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Bb4SOTHDu
“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?”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbpDMoxlPb
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAbm2cxhD4
“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.”466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllp8cSQB5l

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 haha466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBG8I1TI27K
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3C4nBOJcm
So yes, happy birthday Sasuke~! ♥
