"You're annoying."
The words hit her like a bullet. Hard.
"Don't leave me!" Sakura screamed, running forward. "If you go, I'll scream, and-"
But Sasuke vanished from in front of her, and then appeared behind her.
"Sakura…" he said. "Thank you for everything…"
He hit her in the back of the head.
"Sasuke…"
She fell back, into his arms.
"Sakura…" he whispered as he put her down on the bench.
He stared down at the beautiful kunoichi. He would miss her, but he had to leave. If she were to come with him, she would get hurt. He knew that.
"We only have to wait for a little while…" he told the unconscious girl as he stroked her hair. "I'll be back for you… One day…" He kissed her slightly on the lips.
"I love you, Sakura."
