Chapter 1: Let Go
She walked into the room and plopped down on her bed. The song on her mp3 player was ending. She closed her eyes and tried to enjoy her peaceful solitude. "Hey Jude…don't make it bad. Take a sad song, and make it better." Her eyes shot open. 'This is the 5th time I've heard this song tonight…'
She glanced around her room. It was practically empty, had the presence of her bed not been there. You see, she and her guardian were moving tonight. After the death of her parents, people never got back to treating her normally. There was always pity. She didn't need it. The fact of the matter is, she had moved on. When were they going to? So, she decided she'd have to do their moving on for them.
Three knocks came from the door, and then a head poked through the opening. "Are you ready to go, Sakura?"
She slowly sat up, as if waking up from a nap. Her eyes slowly found her guardian's. "Yes. Let's go, Kakashi." His exposed eye crinkled into a smile. She couldn't really see it, but Sakura knew he was giving her a gentle smile. She stood up and briskly walked towards him, long pink hair swaying behind her. "The faster we get out of here, the faster we can forget about this whole ordeal…and this town."
Kakashi smirked behind his mask. New town, new adventure? Perhaps. "Let's go, darling." Sakura walked towards Kakashi, and together, they walked towards the door to make their final exit to Sakura's bedroom. Sakura's final exit to her childhood. They stood their at the opening, staring at Sakura's bed. "Sakura, are you sure you don't want to bring your bed to the new house?"
Sakura stared silently at the bed. She had many memories on that bed. Her father specifically picked it out for her. It was her first and only 'big girl bed'. There was even a pull out compartment for when her friends would sleep over. That's why her dad picked it out. Sure, it looked a little tacky for it didn't go with the interior of her room, but she could never seem to let go of that bed. Sakura blinked and turned around towards the exit. "Yes. I'm sure." Kakashi sighed. She gave him a very cheerful smile. "It's time for me to grow up!" Her grin faltered into a smaller smile. "It's time for me to let go."
That being said, Kakashi nodded. Sakura started walking down the hall that led to the stairway. Kakashi stood there. He lingered at her bedroom's doorway. He gave the room once last good look. He then slowly shut the door and started walking to where Sakura just earlier exited.
"Come on! You're taking so long! I'm excited to see our new home!" Sakura yelled while skipping towards the front door. Kakashi laughed as he slowly made his way down the stairs. She turned around and placed a hand on her hip. "Don't tell me you're getting old and slow…" She said playfully. Kakashi's exposed eye widened. He then scoffed and walked briskly towards the front door. Sakura laughed and followed him to the front yard. "Hey! I was just kidding, you know!"
Kakashi turned his head a bit to give her an unexposed smile. "I know. Because you look older than me." Sakura scoffed at his comment and continued to walk towards their waiting black Mercedes Benz. They paused before getting in the car. "Say your goodbyes, Sakura."
She had a little smile on. Soon, her little smile turned into a grin. She started waving at the house. "Goodbye…" She whispered. She then slid in the car. Kakashi shortly followed. The car started moving when Kakashi shut the door. As they pulled away from the drive way, they continued to stare out their windows. They could not take their eyes off their former home. They continued to stare until the big white house they used to live in was no longer visible. She grinned at Kakashi. "I can't wait to get to Konoha!"
Kakashi's eye crinkled into a smile. "Neither can I."
