It was nearing Christmas in Kohona; the snow was falling gracefully through the streets. Sakura was undeniably freezing in her warmest winter clothes. Her poor nose was as red as a cherry; Sakura hoped that it wouldn't be frostbitten. Still Sakura forged on, her coldness was forgotten as she remembered her personal mission,

Bring sasuke-kun some sugar cookies.

In the beginning of her baking, she wasn't really thinking of anybody, until she remembered that sasuke-kun was probably in need of some cookies, and she had more than a few extra, so she thought of the only reasonable choice, bring him some.

Sakura made sure to cut each cookie perfectly, taking her time in doing so. Sasuke was an important part of her life, and she wanted him to know it.

Snow crunched under her feet as she walked towards the Uchiha mansion, it was a tall and scary building to Sakura. A sudden gust of wind made her pink hair fly around her face, and she hurriedly moved towards the door. After a few timid knocks the huge mahogany door opened to reveal Itachi Uchiha, Sakura held her breath at the sight of him; he was so attractive that it scared her.

"H-Hello Itachi-san, is Sasuke-kun home?" Sakura really hoped that Sasuke was home if not she would probably kill herself for all that wasted time.

"Hn. Yes he is, just a minute." Sakura mentally jumped for joy as Itachi called for Sasuke.

Itachi began to stroll into another room as Sasuke appeared in the doorway.

"Hn…what do you want." Sasuke asked while looking at the small bag she was holding.

"I-I wanted to give you these, Sasuke-kun." she gave him a huge smile as he opened the bag and looked at a cookie. She felt her heart fly away as he bit into the cookie, but it soon died and fell to the ground when he spit it out.

"These taste horrible, I hate you, and you're annoying."

Sakura snatched the bag from him and ran away, her boot covered feet taking her as far away as she could manage,

She ran for at least ten minutes until she reached a large stone bench. Her little body slumped down and tears started pouring down her pale face. She cried as hard as she could, she didn't even notice the heavy footsteps coming towards the bench.

She did notice however when the person sat down.

Her tear covered emerald eyes met ivory orbs. "ITACHI-SAN!!"

He looked at her poor figure and gave a small "Hn."

She quickly slid down farther away from him, at least until the bench stopped.

"W-What are you doing here?"

He merely averted his gaze to the tear streaks running down her face.

Sakura inwardly sighed; she should've known that he wouldn't answer.

She almost got up when his velvet smooth voice stopped her.

"Why were you crying?" she looked at her small bag and softly spoke

"Sasuke-kun wouldn't eat my cookies."

She sniffed and rubbed her nose with her mitten covered hand.

She noticed slender fingers covered in glove snake towards her bag, and then quickly snatch one out. She watched as Itachi took a bite out of Santa's head, then a small smile appeared on his face.

"I will."
