A/N: Three Shot!

I have to warn you, I'm apply for colleges and visiting them so I can't focus on writing as much anymore. Also School starts up for me in 3 weeks and I am in a sport and an academic club; all these will take up quite a bit of my time. Though I will still update and will never ever give up on my stories until they are all completed.

Hohohoho..

Each Chapter will have a different point of view. First: Karin, Second: Sakura, Third: Sasuke. Yep so here we are…enjoy!

I really don't hate Karin all that much anymore…but I promised this story and I'm not gonna make up some random chick for the plotline. You guys will probably notice that from now on, Karin won't seem as big as a bitch anymore in my stories. I lost my hate, what can I say? (Note: She still annoys me a lot, but I just can't find that vibrant hate any longer.)

Beta: Alrighty! Looks like I'm betaing for Halfkyuubikat once again! And as much as I hate Karin (despise, loathe, detest; doesn't matter. She simply makes me fucking livid!), I found this quite interesting, because it was so in-character. Anyways, enjoy people, and review before I stab you with flaming pitchforks and beat you within an inch of your life with a crowbar! And my fists! Peace out! ~Sasukeluva 4eva~

Warning: Vague Lemon in first chapter…and Karin (enough said).

He was mine.

Since the time he choose me to be on his team, since the moment he had personally sought me out, he had been mine. No other women was worthy of him. He didn't show any one but me the slightest interest. Suigetsu said it was due to my rare gift of healing and tracking, but it had always been more than that.

Because Sasuke was mine and mine alone.

I saw that when he thought no one else would notice, he would watch me for periods of time. Like he found something about irresistible and would never get enough of it. And how could he not? I was not the average women. My outward appearance was great and the clothes I wore always kept someone's attention on me.

And it had most definitely caught the eye of Sasuke.

When we stopped in towns, he never gave any of the whores a second glance. They could cake on the makeup and nearly starve themselves into hell so that they could look beautiful in this world. Yet, Sasuke stared at them with disgust.

I never hid my attraction toward him and although I never got a forward reply, I also was never rejected or given his standard glare like any other woman I saw around him did. Even though we have stayed in the red light districts of cities before and Suigetsu never hesitated in finding some bitch to fuck during the one night stay, Sasuke always avoided the whore houses.

He only needed one person and I had known full well who that person was.

Suigetsu wouldn't hear it, but I had always said that Sasuke had found interest in me and it would only be a matter of time before he personally sought me out once again. Only this time for a much different reason.

And that moment came.

Sasuke appeared at my door of the hide out we were currently staying at in the middle of the night. I was always prepared for that moment, so I wore a piece of violent red lingerie that highlighted both my hair and my eyes. He stared at me for a few moments; gazing at my hair for what seemed like an eternity. His emotionless mask was still on like always, but deep within the pits of his onyx eyes I could see his want for me. The lust.

He had a need for me that needed to be quenched, and there was no way I could refuse Uchiha Sasuke of all people.

It was so easy to pull him into the room and enjoy a night full of ecstasy.

He didn't kiss me at all. It hadn't bothered me during the moment; I was so caught up in the act we were committing that any logical thought all but escaped my mind. The feeling that he gave me was beyond anything I had ever felt with any other man. Sasuke was the person I had been craving since the first moment I saw him at the chunin exams when we were twelve.

No man would ever be able to compare to his perfection.

Yet, after we had both reached our orgasms and he simply dressed and left the room without a word, my mind started to find the differences with Sasuke and all the other men I have had sex with.

They never seemed to get enough of me. Sasuke had barely touched me or tried any foreplay. He just seemed to want to get it over with.

At the time of course, I had assumed that it was because he had been waiting for me for so long, that he just couldn't wait a second longer, but that didn't explain why he had hardly touched me throughout the entire intimate experience.

His hands stayed glued to the sheets the entire time and the thing that confused me the most was how he forced me so that my front was facing the bed.

I know that guys have their favorite positions and all, but something about it seemed like he didn't want to see me while we were having sex.

He also hadn't called out my name.

That was the thing that bothered me the most. I knew Sasuke wasn't a vocal person, but all the men I had before—no matter their personalities—always ended up grunting my name by the end of the night.

Beside the occasional groan or grunt, Sasuke stayed completely silent.

I had all these worries, but none of them mattered. Because I had captured the avenger…

And I had no plans of ever letting him go.

"It was a mistake."

Those were the first words that he spoke to me the next day. I was shocked to such an extent that I felt rooted in place, unable to move at all.

For that reason I didn't chase after him when he simply turned around and started walking down the path.

However I still managed to call out to him.

"Sasuke-kun!" I shrieked.

My mind was running through so many excuses at that moment. I was trying to understand why after finally fucking me he would ever want to just 'end it' at that. It seemed most likely to me that he was worried his lust for me would get in the way of his goals. That he would be distracted and unable to focus on what he was avenging.

That had to be it.

But he had to know that I would never be a distraction to him. I wouldn't hold him back. I would patiently wait for the next day that he decided he needed me. I could do that for him, but there was no way I would allow him to call our moment together a mistake.

My legs moved and I raced to his side, clinging to his arm. When he didn't shake me off it brought hope to me.

"Sasuke-kun, I won't distract you! I can wait for the next time! I know that you have wanted me for a while, and don't ruin what an amazing night we had together for something as stupid as this. I will always wait and then when you need it, I can give you an even more amazing night…"

I pushed my breasts up against his arm trying to hint at what he could be gifted with if he just choose to stick with me.

I was not prepared for however when he violently ripped his arm away from me and finally turned his head to meet my gaze. For once his face was not his usual apathetic stolidness and there was emotion plainly written on it; disgust.

"It was a mistake, Karin." He hissed the words slowly and practically spat out my name.

And he was gone the next second.

My arms fell lamely to my sides. I realized with horror that he would not be coming back to me anytime soon.

The sound of a barky laugh behind me however soon broke my horror filled mind.

Suigetsu was suddenly next to me laughing his ass off as he looked in the direction of which Sasuke had disappeared. I didn't need to be a rocket scientist to know that he had heard my conversation with Sasuke.

"Man, Karin! When will you learn that Sasuke doesn't have interest in you, no matter what your deluded mind thinks? I think it's pretty clear that he doesn't want any of the STD's that you've contracted over the years. And anyways, it seems pretty obvious to me."

I bit back my retort in saying that Sasuke and I have had sex and just last night as well, but I wasn't in the mood to get pestered anymore by Suigetsu. Plus the last words he had spoken had caught my interest.

"It seems pretty obvious what?" I growled out.

A wide smile appeared across his face.

"It seems pretty obvious to me that he is in love with someone else."

My eyes widened, before I laughed wildly. Who could Sasuke possibly be in love with? He didn't spare any woman a second glance besides myself and throughout the entire time he was in Oto, he never turned his head to the sound of any girls desperate calls.

"In love with who? Do you remember him being with any woman? That's stupid even for you, Suigetsu!"

"You're the stupid one Karin. You are clearly forgetting that he did have a life before the Sound Village. I think it's pretty clear that he left behind someone that was very important to him."

I whirled on my heel, anger slicing through me in waves.

"If he was in love with someone Suigetsu, then why would he just have sex with me last night?"

Suigetsu's smile didn't fade. He rolled his shoulders in a shrugging fashion before his noise wrinkled in disgust.

"Eww, well I guess those noises weren't just some horrible nightmare…hm. Oh I have an idea about your question though. Maybe…"

He turned to look at me, his smiling growing rapidly.

"Maybe he was using you as a replacement?"

XxXxXxXxX

He was asleep.

His body was against the bark of a tree and his shoulders were slumped forward in the first time in over two days. He was beyond exhausted I knew. He was counting on us to wake him if any threats arose.

I knew if I stood close to him he wouldn't wake. I knew if I bent down close to his face very slowly his sleep would go undisturbed.

If I pressed my lips against his…I would secure our first kiss together and my insecurities would vanish about a girl that I was positive didn't exist.

Suigetsu eyed me as I approached Sasuke. I knew he wouldn't shout out while I was doing the deed, he would probably wait until Sasuke was awake before he ratted me out. I didn't care as long as I got what I wanted now.

I bent close to his face, studying any signs that he would wake. I kept my eyes open and kept myself aware of any change in him at all. I puckered my lips gently and moved closer toward his wonderful, beautiful lips.

His mouth opened.

I flinched back as he moved to speak; horrified at being caught before I had managed to secure a kiss between us. However what he said caused everything in the stilled forest to become deathly silent.

"S-Sakura..."

That single name left his lips as I recoiled backwards as if he had slapped me. I stood still for a moment before I walked over to where Jugo and Suigetsu were seated and joined them on the ground. I felt numb all over, and for that reason did not react straight away when Suigetsu started talking to me.

"Quite a shocker right Karin? I told you he was in love with someone! You would be surprised at just how many times he has called that one name out in the middle of the night. It's about time that your eyes were opened."

"He's called that name before?" I asked weakly. I couldn't believe it. Sasuke wanted me. Not this Sakura! He always wanted me. That was the reason he would watch me, the reason he went to me that night, the reason he only paid attention to me instead of all the women he could have!

"Yep."

He placed his hand on my shoulder and for once I didn't shake him off and try to kill him.

"I'm sorry that this ruined everything you believed in Karin, but to be completely honest with you, I know the reason why he used you for sex that night and the reason that he always 'watches' you. I know this is very cruel to you, but you remind him of this 'Sakura'."

"What do you mean?"

He smiled cruelly.

"I've seen her picture before Sasuke destroyed what was left of Orochimaru's base. Your hair color sometimes reminds him of his 'Sakura.' You have that bright red…and she has a bright pink. He probably pictured her as the person he was having sex with, and while he gazes at you with 'love filled eyes ' as you put it, is getting carried away in his old memories."

Suigetsu left after that. I didn't recall when because I was thinking of when Sasuke and I had had sex.

And the way he turned me over so that he didn't have to see my face…so that he could picture it was her he was having sex with.

The way he didn't call my name the entire night…because he was thinking hers.

The way he didn't touch me…because he didn't want anyone but her.

And as much as I tried to deny it, I knew that he didn't belong to me. He didn't call out my name while he slept. He didn't want to make love to me. He didn't love me. He was not mine.

He was Sakura's.

XxXxXxXxX

The village people seemed to pass in a blur. The defining features were mixed together and the loud chatter was nonexistent in my ears. The more people that passed me, the more people I didn't see clearly, because inside I was such a mess.

I was so full of hate and anger that I felt like I would explode. Sasuke had used me to replace this 'Sakura.' I wanted to crush the world and most importantly I wanted to hit Suigetsu a few hundred times.

Not only had Sasuke used me, but now he was sending me away. I wasn't a fool; I knew that he just wanted to be rid of me. I never thought that some fucking bitch that I knew nothing of would take away what was rightfully mine.

Because Sasuke was mine, even if he called out for Sakura while he slept. He was mine alone.

'Sakura' didn't exist here in the missing nin-world, and as soon I got back to Sasuke after retrieving what he desired, I would show him that I was so much better than a person he hasn't seen since God knows when.

I couldn't help but smile. It was just a matter of time…

I continued to walk down the streets, eager to find what Sasuke had assigned me to and then quickly leave this place. My eyes were now aware of the people and the objects around me. I was passing through what seemed to be the shopping district and so it was bustling with people and stalls.

I wondered if I purchased something for Sasuke if he would—

I didn't notice her at first and it was only when we stood inches away from each other that my eyes took in the details of her face and the scent that surrounded her. She was wrapped in a floral scent that matched her appearance.

That matched her pink hair.

My eyes widened and I turned to watch as she passed me. She was mouthing words as she walked, her fingers of her right hand counting something, while her left one carried a bunch of bags.

"I'm sorry that this ruined everything you believed in Karin, but to be completely honest with you, I know the reason why he used you for sex that night and the reason that he always 'watches' you. I know this is very cruel to you, but you remind him of this Sakura."

"What do you mean?"

"I've seen her picture before Sasuke destroyed what was left of Orochimaru's base. Your hair color sometimes reminds him of his 'Sakura.' You have that bright red…and she has a bright pink."

It couldn't be…

It just couldn't be the girl that was separating Sasuke from me. I turned completely, watching her every step. My body tensed at the threat she was posing and then I shivered from the intense feeling of hate that passed through me.

I couldn't think, I just called out the name that had been haunting me since I heard it coming from Sasuke's lips.

"Sakura?"

She stopped immediately. Her shoulder length hair blew in a gust of wind and caused the pink tresses to fly in disarray around the back of her head. Somehow it seemed graceful and I was not the only one who noticed such; men were watching her from their stands, clearly ignoring their customers for the sight of the woman.

She turned on her heel just as her hair settled around her heart-shaped face. She glanced through the crowd for a brief moment before her green eyes landed on me. Her body shifted slightly and I noticed the headband on her head showing her loyalty to Konoha. Sasuke's old village.

She wore a red top and a tan skirt with shorts underneath. It allowed free movement for the occupation of a ninja and also exemplified her figure.

She blinked once before her perfect lips parted to speak.

"Yes?"

I lunged for her throat.

So…..review?
