A/N: It's another sasusaku fanfiction! This is just my second fanfiction so please don't be hard on me. I hope you guys like it! The first chapter is going to be in Normal POV but the rest of the chapters are in Sakura's POV. I got my inspiration for this story after I watched a Subway commercial. Don't ask how… So basically I don't really have any plot to it yet. It's kinda like moments where Sakura feels powerless to him. I've wanted to post this story for a while now so here it is! Please enjoy and review and please don't be like those people who read stories and don't review!
Also if there is any mistakes, please tell me and I will fix them :)
Pairings: Sasusaku (Main), Naruhina, Nejiten, and Shikaino.
Summary: -Sasusaku- I can knock you out cold, kick your ass so hard you reach the sky, break your bones in half, heal you when you're really hurt, and probably make you so scared -that you pee in your pants- when I get mad but when it comes to him, I'm powerless.

Sakura's thoughts
Inner Sakura's thoughts
Chapter 1: My Weakness
Sakura and Naruto were walking with Hinata to Ichiraku Ramen as usual during lunchtime (it was like tradition). Sakura always felt like a third wheel since Naruto and Hinata had feelings for each other but Naruto's an idiot and doesn't know it yet. The reason why Sakura always tagged around because Hinata didn't want to faint all the time and she wanted someone she could at least turn to if she needed help. Another reason is that Naruto wanted his best friend (or so-called sister) to be there to eat ramen with them all the time.
"It's this time again, already? That was fast!" Naruto exclaimed.
I sweatdropped, "Naruto...we do this everyday..."
"That's why it's this time again!"
This happens all the time. I wish this would be like a normal date instead of me coming along like always. Sure, I wanna help Hinata any way I can but seriously...coming with them on their dates? Is this even considered a date?
Who said that dates can't be a three-wheel thing? Except...Naruto and Hinata are supposed to fall in love with each other and you're just there to watch...
You do know that makes me feel BETTER?!
Sometimes her inner self was really helpful at times like these. Note: Pure sarcasm...
Who knew what that dirt path before her could hold? With every step she took, she felt as if something was off today. She looked at Naruto. He was grinning beside her as his hands were folded behind his head. He was the same as always or maybe it was Hinata? She looked at Hinata. She was twiddling with her fingers and blushing slightly. Nope…it wasn't her either. She looked straight ahead and she was determined and prepared for anything.
"Hey Hinata-chan, what kind of ramen are you ordering this time?" Naruto turned his attention to (his eventual girlfriend) Hinata.
"Maybe beef or the roasted pork...I don't know?"
"That's great! I'm thinking about choosing everything off the menu!"
Maybe Naruto will actually realize that he likes Hinata? I think that's what is off.
She couldn't help but think that. Naruto was happier more than ever and that could have been the possibility. Since Sasuke left many months ago to complete a mission for Lady Tsunade, she had no problems so far and was just as happy as Naruto at the moment. In fact, having Sasuke gone made her life easier and she didn't faint anymore. Yup, life was great.

"Here is your ramen, young man."
"Thank you."
"Mr. Uchiha, am I right?"
"What?"
"How was the mission? You have been gone for a long time."
"It was easy but it took awhile to get all the information Lady Tsunade needed."
"I see...and you have come back unharmed."
"SASUKE!"
"Yet.."
"Hey Sasuke!"
Sasuke looked at Teuchi, "Is there any way I can take this home?" he directed the old man's attention to his soup.
"Sasuke-teme!"
"Hmmm…well, it would be best if you eat it here. It's already in the bowl."
"SASUKE-TEME!"
"Can't you just put it in a container? It's not that hard."
"I'll give you a discount."
"Fine…I'll stay here."
"Hey Sasuke!" Naruto ran up to his best friend and smacked him (hard…very, very hard) on the back, thinking it was a friendly greeting.
There's no harm in giving your best friend a soft pat on the back, right?
Sasuke, on the other hand, was affected by the blow and the force caused his pretty face to be dunked into the hot-very hot- boiling hot- just cooked hot- hot as him hot- soup. Right now, Sasuke (Naruto's so-called 'best friend') was steaming…and it wasn't because of the soup.
"Naruto…" he grumbled his name in annoyance.
"Hey Sasuke-teme, why are you all wet?"
"Naruto."
"And why are you looking at me like that?"
--
Did you hear that?
What?
I thought I heard someone scream in pain…
Must've been Naruto…I mean, he did run off ahead of us.
Yeah…maybe it's nothing. Wait…why would Naruto be screaming in pain?
I don't know? He probably tripped over a rock?
Who would be so STUPID to trip over a rock?! They are so small! Oh wait...Sakura…I think Hinata-chan's worried.
Yeah…I should comfort her.
"Hey Hinata-chan?" Sakura pulled her attention away from her fingers.
"Yes, Sakura-chan?"
"Are you worried about Naruto?"
"Yes…What was he screaming about?"
"You shouldn't worry anymore, Hinata-chan."
"Yes…you are right…"
"He's probably dead!"
"W-Wha?"
Hinata started to feel her limbs numb and her vision become vague. She fell backwards and fainted due to Sakura's explanation. Sakura sweatdropped at the scene before her and shrugged.
You were supposed to comfort her! Not scare the hell out of her!
At least Naruto would be worried when we get there, then Hinata and Naruto will get married.
It doesn't work like that, Sakura…
Sakura pulled Hinata up, focused all her chakra into her hands and feet, and started to carry her on her back all the way to Ichiraku.
--
"WHAT THE HELL, SASUKE-TEME!"
"You loser! You started it!"
"It was an accident! Accident! I didn't mean to! Accidents mean that the person didn't do it on purpose! You, the bastard, purposely dumped my head in that freaking, burning, hot, perfect, delicious, too-good-to-be-wasted bowl of mouth-watering, scrumptious, tasty, I-would-love-to-eat-that-right-now RAMEN!"
"You, the low-scored idiot, smacked me so hard that it caused me to dump my own face into the RAMEN!"
"Boys! Boys! I can take care of this!" Teuchi interrupted their oh-so-wonderful-filled-with-friendship conversation.
The two young (fifteen years old) men look toward the elderly man before them.
"How about the ramen is for free? I'll pay for it."
"Alright!" Naruto cheered for joy.
"That's unless you boys stop fighting."
The 'boys' nodded.
Naruto appeared to be distracted by something. He realized something, or someone, was missing. Then he remembered he left two young women that were previously walking behind him. He hadn't realize how fast he ran to Ichiraku.
"Hmmm…where are they?" Naruto wondered out loud as he looked back at the dirt path Sakura and Hinata were on.
"Who?"
--
Hinata started to wake up and noticed that her feet were above ground. "Huh?"
"Oh! Hinata-chan! You're finally waking up!" Sakura smiled but still looked forward.
"What happened?"
"Oh…I told you that Naruto died…"
"He what?!" Hinata's eyes started to fill with terror.
"I was just kidding!" Sakura tried to calm her down and tell her she wasn't serious.
Hinata was just about to faint again until she heard that. She sighed in relief, "Don't do that, Sakura-chan…I was really worried."
Sakura sighed and shook her head, "I'm sorry, Hinata-chan…anyway, we are almost there."
"Have you been carrying me the whole time?"
"Yes."
"Aren't I heavy?"
"Nope, I'm using chakra and will probably be tired after this. Now pretend you're asleep so Naruto will think that something bad happened to you."
"But why?"
"Do you want Naruto to fall in love with you?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to wake up in the morning with him lying right next to you?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to cook for him?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to say 'I love you' every single day to him?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to hear him say it back to you?"
"Yes."
"Do you want him to kiss you?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to have sex with him?"
"Ye—"
Sakura smirked, "I'm telling Neji…"
Hinata face turned bright red as she noticed what Sakura had just said, "Sakura-chan! You tricked me…"
"Nah! I'm just joking again, Hinata-chan. I wouldn't tell Neji. Ok, now pretend you're sleep…we're a few steps away from—" then she saw something she didn't want to see at the moment. "SASUKE!" and she dropped Hinata on her ass.
Hinata groaned from the pain and looked at Sakura. She knew something was wrong with her.
Sakura's strength began to diminish and her eyes became droopy. The remaining chakra she had left was the only thing that kept her from fainting.
Hinata disrupted her silence. "Sakura-chan…are you alright?"
Sakura gave Hinata a small, nervous smile, "Yes…I hope."
--
"Dobe…isn't that Sakura and Hinata?" Sasuke pointed at the two girls standing a few feet away from Ichiraku Ramen.
"There they are!" Naruto smiled vibrantly. "Hinata-chan! Sakura-chan!"
--
Sakura took a deep breath in to try at least to keep that remaining chakra. She took another deep breath, "Hinata-chan…I think…Naruto's…calling us…"
"Sakura-chan…"
"Come on…let's go…" Sakura grabbed Hinata's hand and pulled his closer to the Ramen Restaurant.
"Sakura-chan…what's wro—"
Hinata paused herself as she saw two men sitting in the chairs at Ichiraku. Naruto was waving at them like crazy while Sasuke was just staring at them blankly. She understood why Sakura would react this way. Sakura would always feel all 'weird' inside whenever she saw him. Sometimes, her chakra would just fail her and she would faint on the spot she stood. Sometimes, Sakura denied that she was in love with the Uchiha. Sometimes, she would fall asleep while Ino, Hinata, and Tenten giggled at her speaking-out-loud dreams about 'Sasuke-kun'. She would never in hell call him that though but her dreams said something else.
Hinata gave her a genuine smile, "Sakura-chan, it's alright. Let's have our usual lunch meal and we will leave Sasuke alone."
Sakura gave her a half smile in return, "Alright, Hinata-chan."
--
"Sooooooooo…Teme…I heard you just got back from a mission, huh?" Naruto walked beside his fellow comrade.
They had finished their meal and were walking through the roads of Konoha. It was just a little stroll to get some air.
"Yeah…so what?"
"That's why you bought ramen! You were starving!"
"Actually, Old Man Teuchi bought it for us and yeah…so?"
"Oh! Nothing…that's all…" Naruto looked around at nothing in particular, "It's just that…Hinata-chan, Sakura-chan, and I have been going to Ichiraku's for a year now. We made it a tradition! Isn't it weird how you show up the exact time we go out for ramen?"
"No."
"Oh…well…ok?"
"Where are you going with this?" Sasuke was getting irritated by the many questions Naruto kept giving him.
"There are many other places in Konoha where you could get a bite for lunch. Why did you specifically pick Ichiraku?"
"I was just walking by it. That's all."
Naruto sighed, "Really then, Sasuke? Did I forget to tell you that Sakura is going out with Kiba now?"
"Wha…?"
"Yes! It's so true! They started to going out since two months ago!"
"Good."
Naruto raised a curious eyebrow, "You don't care?"
"No."
--
"What are they talking about?" Sakura twisted her head to look at Hinata.
Sakura and Hinata had planned to walk behind the boys to reserve that last amount of chakra Sakura had left in her body. Though…Sasuke and Naruto have been talking and saying some things she couldn't understand very clearly and was interested to know what they were talking about.
Hinata shrugged, "Ummm…I don't know? Why don't you ask them?"
Sakura kept staring at her, giving her that 'do-you-really-think-I-would-go-up-to-that-hot-piece-of-junk-and-ask-him-that?' face.
Hot-piece-of-junk…That's exactly what he is.
Hinata sighed and replied, "Sorry."
Sakura chuckled, "Sorry Hinata-chan, I would go up to him and ask him that but I can't even control myself when I'm around him…let alone look at him…"
"Yes, I know."
"Then you go ask them!"
"What?!"
And with that, Sakura had pushed Hinata so hard into the back of someone (very familiar) with blonde hair and that happens to be an idiot because he will never understand why Hinata always blushes at him unless someone told him and he loves ramen...VERY much...at least more than his hygiene.
--
"Ouch!" Naruto groaned underneath. He felt someone on top of him. "Sasuke-teme! Help me!"
"I-I'm so-sorry, Na-Naruto-kun!" Hinata stuttered and got off of the poor little blonde boy under her.
"It's ok, Hinata-chan!" Naruto beamed at her.
She blushed, "What were we guys talking about?"
Naruto laughed nervously, "Oh…you know…manly stuff…"
"No, we're not," Sasuke retorted, "Hinata, is Sakura going out with Kiba?" he, straight out, asked.
Naruto started to sweat.
"No…"
"Dobe."
"She did!" Naruto tried to convinced the prodigy.
"No, she didn't, Naruto-kun."
Naruto sighed in disbelief, "There's a thing called lying, Hinata-chan…"
"Oh…"
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
"What was that?!"
--
"Ouch…" Sakura mumbled in distress.
Sakura had tripped over a rock and that last amount of chakra had run out. Before Sakura knew it, she was knocked out...
By a rock.
