... was there supposed to be an implication of something in Haytham's words? Sasuke stared at the man in a certain amount of blatant confusion for a long moment before finally just asking outright:

"What are you trying to say? Why would having Sakura here distract me?"

There was a smile at the question, as faint as it was.

"If you have to ask perhaps you are still too inexperienced to understand."

Might be too young... Haytham nodded as he paced slowly around Sasuke, preparing to go on about his way.

"Some could think this a precursor to courting your young lady."

Inexperienced was a word that made Sasuke bristle slightly, shoulders tensing and eyes narrowing as he allowed Haytham to walk around him. Sasuke was far too old now to allow something as trivial as a team member he was no longer accustomed to having back him up as his partner on a mission, but he highly doubted that was what the man was implying --

And it was clarified with his next statement, something that made Sasuke incongruously relax, almost amused at the notion.

"Neither of us have the sort of time for something that banal," he said, tone dismissive. Sakura at twelve might have had some kind of design on him, but far too much time and distance had happened since then.
