I would just like to say that this is gonna be a 'for now' story. I know I said I was making another one but that one got lost and I can't remember anything I put! But I will try to find it so no worries…for now… I tend to lose many things so don't expect me to write very, very often. At least once a week or later ok? If you want me to actually continue this, I'm expecting at least 5 to 7 reviews from you people! I guess now try to enjoy the story.

SUMMARY: They said they would be there for her. They said they would never betray her. In the end they're words were lies. Now she'll go on with her heart broken and nothing healed. "Sakura, what happened to you?" "...Life did..."

~WORDS OF WISDOM: Darling, leave the ones that hurt you for the pain will just continue.

*DYING IS YOUR FAVORITE PASSION*

-Chapter 1: Always an end-

*_-_-_-_-*

Darkness echoes through the streets of Konoha. The only sounds that could be heard was the soft wind blowing throughout the small town and small whispers coming from the young women walking towards her apartment. The unshed tears from her eyes were threatening to spill over but somehow, she managed to stop them just in time.

Her heart was shattered earlier that day due to the betrayal that was caused by her supposed "beloved". If only she knew that she would get hurt once again, she wouldn't have gotten so close to him. The pain was so great when that image passed through her mind over and over, like it wanted to taunt her for the rest of her life.

She opened the door to her room and walked to the bathroom to start the shower. Her hands took off any clothing that hid her body and stepped into the small area. She began to scrub her flesh as if she were infested with a virus that wouldn't go away. She felt disgusted with herself knowing that he had been touching, feeling, and releasing, into someone else.

Her skin became red that it looked like her whole body was bleeding. Foot by foot, she got out of the shower and made her way to her room. When she got in front of the mirror green eyes stared back at her, scanning her being to see all of the redness disappearing. Her eyes caught the picture sitting by her bedside and lifted it up until she was able to see the people in it. It was the picture of Sasuke, Naruto, and her. When the 3 of them used to be friends. But that was in the past and this was the present. It doesn't matter anymore, at least for her.

Once again, the memories from earlier that day came to her head making her drop the photo onto the ground. She jumped onto the bed wrapping the covers around her shoulders and dreamt of the previous actions.

*_-_-_-_-*

4 hours before

The day was going by just like she planned. Sakuras and Narutos anniversary was today and she wanted to plan something special for him. She had bought all of the things on the list that she would later give to Naruto. Her car stopped at the front of his house and quickly gathered all of the bags there were. When she reached the front of the door it was funny how his front door was locked. He never kept it locked if he knew that she was going to be there. Didn't he know that today was there special day?

Luckily he told her where the spare key was so without hesitation, she unlocked the door and stepped inside. Naruto was certainly not a clean person but he wasn't this messy either! It really was starting to get weird. Putting the bags of food and necessities in the places they needed to be.

Halfway through her deeds, she noticed the noises coming from upstairs. Her being Sakura, she went up the flight of stairs and towards the door where the small voices were coming from. Her heart started racing and feelings of panic and dread surfaced in her veins. The instant her hands pushed on the door, she couldn't help but freeze at what was going on.

Limbs tangled with each other, bodies too close together and names coming from one another's mouths. The names of Naruto and Karin. Her "beloved" and "family".

Naruto seemed to realize a movement at the door and stopped what he was doing. Blue eyes widening and his body reacting to awareness, he got off of the body of her and went after Sakura who had run off a long time ago, not wanting to look like the idiot who had again fallen for this trap of lies.

Sakura never really was a fast runner. She was never coordinated. Maybe that's why Naruto had caught up to her so fast, and quickly took her into is arms. She started kicking and screaming telling him to let her go but he wouldn't budge. When he thought that she had calmed down, his arms loosened up on her but just enough so that she wouldn't run from him.

His eyes looked at her face and were shocked to see that she wasn't crying, but her eyes were dilated. He started to explain that it meant nothing but it seemed she wasn't listening to the words that were spilling out of his mouth.

"Sakura-Chan! I'm sorry; this was a mistake it didn't mean anything!" Narutos rambling just kept going on and on until Sakura had finally spoken.

"Naruto…How long?" He pretended not to understand what she was asking but knew that if he told her it would just break her.

"Uh, Sakura-Chan it won't happen again! I promise!" He was hesitating to answer, she knew.

"Naruto…How long?!" Her voice rose up a notch and he could tell the hurt that she was feeling was great, so without indecision he answered.

"…4 months…But it was all a mistake! It won't happen again!" Guilt is what he felt when he saw all of the emotions flashing through her eyes. She blinked and walked out of his arms that she once thought would always be there when she felt like this.

"…The only mistake I see here is ever trusting someone such as yourself…I guess you're still just like him and that will never change…You're still the Naruto from before, so happy yet foolish…Now, you're one of those people that I can never trust or ever love anymore." Sapphire eyes widening and with a shaky breath he tried pulling her to him again only for his hand to be slapped away by hers.

"I don't ever want you touching me or calling my name by 'Sakura-chan because you are no longer a part of my life…You Naruto are just another person in my eyes and that's all you'll ever be. Goodbye." With that, Sakura left him there not caring if he had been hurt by her words.

Tears fell from his eyes and wanted to feel the warmth of her body pressed against his again. The only woman that his heart had happened to capture was leaving him because of the wrong choice that he had made. He wanted oh so badly to go after her because he knew if he didn't, he might not see her again. How right he was.

His knees buckled under him and fell to the ground with a thud. It was an interesting sight to see. The son of a powerful man lying on the sidewalk of an unknown road. She was right, he did take her for granted and now he was paying for it. Then the words that she had said rephrased in his head.

"…I guess you're still just like him and that will never change…" He knew who she was talking about and hated that she thought of both of them the same. That one specific person that had caused most of her trust to disappear had been compared to him. That person that happened to be Sasuke Uchiha.

Naruto just happened to be in his place right now. Lying on the ground shaking. Feeling so empty just because she wouldn't be there anymore.

Sasuke had done this to her when they were still in the 12th grade. Him and Naruto were best friends and exactly the same, but with different appearances. They were the same because they didn't care what girl came up to them or what girl 'loved' them, they just went along with what they wanted.

Sasuke came knocking on his door one night, and told him what he had done to Sakura together with the words she said to him. Sasuke said he regretted it, breaking her heart like that and feeling guilty because he lost the best thing that ever happened to him.

Sasuke was always thought to be the stone-cold Uchiha because of his family, but when the water-like substance fell from his cheeks Naruto found out that Sasuke Uchiha did have feelings. But their friendship broke apart when Naruto asked Sakura out on a date, Sasuke had been furious but didn't say anything wanting to act like he didn't care but in reality, he actually did.

That day Naruto and Sasuke were in war. You would never see them sitting at the same table with their friends, never calling each other those weird names, and never talking to one another anymore.

But now, Naruto was the one feeling regret at what he had done and he was pretty sure that he would be paying for it very soon but he couldn't help think that she didn't even cry when she found out. Shaking that thought off his head, he gathered all the strength he could muster lifted himself up and walked back to his house.

*_-_-_-_-*

Now

Sakuras sleeping form heaved up and down with every breathe she took. The nightmare from before had finally left her and she began to sleep soundly. To deep in her sleep now, she didn't notice the shadow in the corner of her room.

*_-_-_-_-*

Yea, I forgot this:

Sasuke: 18

Naruto: 18

Sakura: 17 ½

Everyone else: I'll tell you later.

Hm, what could that shadow be huh? Remember 5 to 7 reviews please. Yes, I used Naruto with Karin but I rarely ever read one with Naruto being the cheater so this was my chance I guess. Just for the record, if this story is a crappy one, I wrote it just now and I'm kinda overly half asleep. Tell me what I need to do better on this ok? I shall go listen to ob-la-di, ob-la-da. Guess what song that is. Hehehe yes I love the Beatles!

Kudos,
