Author's Note: It sort of came to me while I was listening to some instrumental music. I've been meaning to write this story for a while now, but I just didn't know how exactly to write it. Reviews are appreciated!

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or any of its characters, but I do own this story, so that MUST count for something!

They were entrapped in the dream that supposedly didn't exist.

There was a small pond in the center, with the moon shining brightly down upon it causing a hazy reflection. The small valley that encircled it had the greenest grass and was completely abandoned except for the most important factor:

The angel.

There was a girl sitting quietly by the small pool touching the tips of her fingers gently to it, making the moon reflection unclear because of the ripples the movement created. The water was a dark, clear blue color. The prettiest of all the waters of the earth.

But of course, this wasn't a place on earth to begin with.

The girl had pink hair which hung loosely and the most stunning pair of clear, emerald eyes. She wore a white dress with thin straps and no sleeves. It passed just a few inches below her knees, making it sway with the slight wind that blew. At first glance she seemed to be bored, but on closer inspection one could see she was waiting for someone.

Hearing soft footsteps, the girl's vision shifted from the slightly shallow pool to deeper ones: the boy's eyes.

He was standing on the other side, staring intently at her. She knew why he had come, even though she wasn't sure he should. He had dark raven-like hair and the moonlight made his skin paler than it usually was. He had dark, onyx-colored eyes that changed according to his mood.

To him, she was his goddess and only he was allowed to be with her. He had been with her through everything. And even still he was with her though not in the same way that he was before. But unlike him, she wasn't with him anymore.

"Sasuke," she whispered her voice like a far off dream.

She gracefully stood from her position near the small pool, making sure not to lose contact with his eyes. Slowly and with much elegance, she positioned her feet atop the water making small ripples form once again on the surface. She began waltzing towards him, her pace even.

When she reached him, she fell into his open embrace with her hands against his chest. Neither of them were sure how long they stood together like so, but they didn't care. At least, one couldn't resist the temptation not to.

"Sakura," he said putting his chin atop her head as a sign of affection.

The girl pulled from the embrace and looked straight into the boy's soft eyes.

"I missed you," she said, her eyes shining brilliantly.

"I missed you too. It's getting harder to be apart each day," he said.

Sakura took Sasuke's hand in hers and began walking away from the pool. She was doing as she did every night. She walked beside him through the woods nearby until it was time for him to leave.

He followed, knowing her intentions. They had reached the beginning of the woods and headed deeper inside.

"So how are things there," she asked, knowing that he knew she was asking about his life in Konoha.

"Things are going great. The dobe is happy with his girlfriend, and Jiraiya just came out with a new version of his perverted book so Kakashi couldn't be better."

Sakura softly laughed, causing Sasuke to squeeze her hand. He loved it when she laughed. It was like a sound from the heavens, only much better and brighter.

"And you?"

He hesitated, "I'm still not over you."

Sakura looked at the ground then looked back at him. She knew of his unhappiness, but there was nothing she could do. It was not in her hands to choose anymore.

"Sasuke, please," she looked at him with pleading eyes, "I can't allow you to suffer now that I'm no longer there."

Sasuke shook his head. He wouldn't fall for it the first time and he definitely wasn't falling for it this time either.

"Sakura I'm not miserable. I just…need some more time to handle things is all."

Judging by their surroundings, both could tell they were about halfway through the woods, which meant their time together was shortening by the minute.

"It's been almost two years, and you still haven't let anyone mend the wounds."

He took his other hand and ran it through his hair. He didn't know how many times he needed to explain it to her.

"It's because I still haven't given up on you," he said quietly, "as long as you're here with me, I can't."

Sakura stopped walking and faced him fully. She took the hand that wasn't in Sasuke's and ran it soothingly down his cheek. Her eyes held unspoken emotions from the past and the present.

"But I'm not with you any longer," she said with a lump in her throat.

Her hand fell from his cheek as she looked at him with tear-filled eyes. He wouldn't accept the truth even if it came from his angel's mouth. He couldn't.

"I can't Sakura! I'm in love with you. Don't you understand that?" he questioned softly.

Instead of a reply, she gave him a long glance which meant that it was time for him to leave. The wind picked up and blew gently across the trees.

"I wish I could, Sasuke."

And with those words Sakura, the woods and the sky all disappeared into darkness.

That was my first chapter for this fic! I hope it was alright for a first

I think this is only going to be three chapters, maybe four.

Please review! I'm aiming for one for the next chapter.

Until then!
