[A/N] Someone please… tell me to stop writing new stories without finishing another haha.

Winds blew an over bearing breeze at her legs. She shivered, feeling goose bumps quickly cover her body. It was the beginning of December and the trees were losing their last leaves. "The perfect season…" She looked up towards the dark blue sky and gazed up at the moon. Another wind rustled her hair causing her to hug her knees to her chest. The swing creaked back and forth slowly as the wind began to pick up. It seemed like hours have went by of her sitting on the porch but she finally gave a sigh of defeat. She retreated back in to the warmth of her home.

Locking the door behind her, she smiled to herself. The comforting heat tickled her face as it defrosted her body. Crackles from the fireplace echoed throughout the living room. She fed the fire more wood as she glanced over to the area where she is going to place the tree. "First I have to pull it out of the attic… along with all the rest of my decorations." She shrugged her shoulders then skipped to the kitchen.

She began to make a cup of hot chocolate and gazed out to the backyard of her house. The trees continued to sway from the wrath of the season. They were un-shielded again the cold but were bold against any weather thrown at them. She admired that. Tearing away from her thought, she finished her hot chocolate. It was steaming, hot and she held her mug as little as possible, but enough that won't let it fall.

Quickly, she placed the cup down on the coffee table in the living room and plopped down on the couch. Research books and medical studies crowded the floor and space around the mug of hot cocoa. "I should finish one task before doing another haha." She picked up one book about Chakra Flu and began to read it intently.

Casually she took sips out of her mug and highlighted words in the book with a pink highlighter. Her hair continued to invade her vision as she continued to push it out of the way. It was a continued battle until she got fed up and angrily tucked it behind her ear. She took a sip out of mug, gazing at her own reflection. Emerald eyes met a different pair of eyes holding the same color. The image in the cup rippled away as she focused her sight on the stray marshmallows. "You can't have hot cocoa without marshmallows!" She giggled as she wiped the hot chocolate mustache off her upper lip.

The words began to run and blur together. She decided to stop that task for now as she played with her bubble-gum colored hair. It bounced into quick springs that (almost instantly) became straight again. She sighed and picked up the remote off the coffee table (hidden under a pile of books). She surfed through the channels trying to find something good.

Eventually she came across a movie that seemed to be a sappy love story, her favorite kind. It wasn't too far into the movie yet so got some candles and lit them. Without a care, she shoved the books off the table and placed the candles on both ends of the table. She put out the fire that was lit in the fire place and smiled in content as cinnamon and apples filled her senses.

Quickly, she pulled a blanket out of the linen closet and plopped down on the couch. To get comfortable she fluffed her pillow up to lay down. The movie was starting as she quietly sipped on her hot chocolate.

Perfectly comfy and enjoying a good movie. These are times she misses most when she has to work back to back shifts and all she can do when she arrives home is plop down on the couch to sleep. The bed is just too far away; maybe she'll move it downstairs to be more convenient.

Moments have passed and the movie is breaking her heart. The main character is inlove with a girl he's known his whole life, and she's oblivious to the world, especially anything that includes him. The scene right now is that she's kissing his best friends right in front of him.

She is literally leaning on the edge of the seat as she watched the main character march over to them and then… a knock sounds through the house. She curses as she stares at the door hoping they will wait a moment but doesn't want to be rude. She hears a conversation go about and harsh backtalk. Hoping she can watch a little more and fill herself in, the movie cuts off to commercial.

"You have got to be kidding me!" Her mood was instantly flipped. She yanked the blanket off of her and stomped over to the door. "Do you know what time it is?!" She hears shuffling through the door and opens it slowly. Her breath literally got stuck in her throat when she saw who was outside on her porch.

"…Sasuke…?" was all she could say. He was leaning against the wall as his hair cascaded over his face. There were so many things she was thinking of saying though. She wanted to punch him through countless brick walls but at the same time… she didn't. She wanted to just stare at him. She was doing a good job at that until Sasuke grunted at her to being her out of her daze. This made her notice that he was hurt. He had cuts all over his arms and large gashes scattered on his body. Blood slowly seeped from the wounds and some was dried up on his skin. Without thinking, she grabbed Sasuke's arm and pulled him inside.

She led him to her couch where he sat down cautiously. There was nothing more she wanted than to see Sasuke weak and in pain, but to see him like this made her heart clentch. He looked absolutely defeated and more so… tired. So she did the only she could do at this moment and reached out to heal him but he flinched away. "Don't touch me." He sent her deathly cold glare that made her shiver. He was furious… beyond pissed.

She recovered and sent him a glare of her own. "You came up to my door uninvited and interrupted my 'one in a lifetime break'. You are covered in blood and are in my home! The last thing I wanted was to see you. You have nothing here since the day you left! Sadly, I made an oath that means I can't deny anyone proper care when they are in need of it. This is applied to both friends and enemies. You don't even have the decency to greet me properly and I'm still willing to heal you!" He made her so angry. He kept his glare on her and she couldn't control her rising anger. She grinded her teeth and hit him in the shoulder where there was definatly a wound.

Sasuke groaned in pain but quickly recovered. "What the fuck is your problem?!" He shot at her. Sakura was un-fazed by what he said and began to heal his wounds against his words. A light green aura emitted from her hands as she did her job.

Sasuke was about to reject her coldly, but the warmth that he felt made him stay still. It was comforting and he could feel the tissue and skin form back together; but, it didn't hurt. He felt her graze his arm which made him flinch slightly at her touch.

"Why are you here?" He stayed silent. Sakura glared and the aura around her hands turned red. A sharp pain surged through his body making him squeeze his eyes shut. He hated not being at his fullest potential. She was treating him like a child and it made him feel week. He loathed it.

"I don't have to answer to you." He spat out. There was no strength left in him to fight but damnit he can still speak his mind.

"Let's remember where you are and that I have the Hokage on speed dial. There will be Anbu who will get you right now, when you can't even hold a kunai towards them. They will get the answers out of you one way or another." She stared at him, daring him to shoot back a response.

Sasuke shifted slightly and looked right into her eyes. "… I killed Orochimaru."

[A/N] sooooo that's my little draft haha. Trying to do a cute Christmas SasuSaku while I'm in the spirit! Let me know how it is and what you think.

I'm also working on another story.. well more of a series. It's a bunch of oneshots, days, and what not with Sasuke and Sakura :) I would love random props for them. Like one worded items I'll include it haha and try my best to base the story off that!

Peace out kitties!
