"Sakura..."

She moaned at the sound of her name being called. Her body felt heavy...stiff...

Where was she? How long had she been there? The last thing she remembered was--

"SAKURA!"

Suddenly she felt someone grab her hand. Her eyes fluttered open slowly. The light seemed too bright, the room too pristine, the noises too loud. She tilted her head to the side, long pink hair splayed across the pillow beneath her head. Her eyes searched the white room landing on a figure, her vision still blurred.

"W-Where am I?"

The figure bolted to her side, the persons long hair brushed the tip of Sakura's nose.

"Naruto! Hinata! Tsuande!"

Sakura heard the firmiliar names and her vision cleared. Long blonde hair was in her face, blue eyes she hadn't seen in what seemed like forever gazed at her, full of happiness and worry and not to mention unshed tears.

"I-Ino?"

Her voice was hoarse from the lack of use.

"Don't speak. It's okay now. I promise!"

Ino said as tears dripped onto her friends cheeks. Naruto bolted in first and saw Sakura. Tears also filled his crystal eyes as his hands shook. Sakura sat up abruptly as her boyfriend of 2 months ran in. Their eyes connecting as he let out a sob. Her head spun and she fell back onto the bed.

"What happened?"

She asked, her eyes closing as she clutched her head.

Hinata ran in and clutched to Naruto's arm. He placed a hand on her head smoothing the indigo hair there. He kissed her cheek and told her to wait outside. She nodded in understanding and walked out. He looked at Ino and her eyes saddened as she too stood squeezing her friends hand once more and leaving. Sakura was faced witht he blonde man she had come to love.

"Sakura...it's so good to see you...awake...moving...living..."

She furrowed her pink brow.

"Naruto tell me what happened..."

He sighed tilting his head back and blinking away the tears there. He sniffled and looked at her.

"The last time you moved at all...the last time you spoke a word...opened those apple green eyes...was 4 years ago."

Her eyes widened as her breath hitched in her throat.

"You were on a mission with myself...Hinata...and Kiba. You ran out onto the battle ground to heal Kiba and distract one Itachi from hurting me...and then Kisame got you. One good blow to the head...a very dangerous blow."

Sakura's memory started to relinquish itself as Naruto continued.

"There was...so much blood...so much. I thought you were dead but you still had a faint pulse. We raced you back to the hospital. It took Tsunade 3 days to get you stable again...but you were in a coma. She said..."

He let out a sob and laid the back of his hand across his mouth quieting it.

"She said that you were in a coma...possibly forever. So...so when a year had passed I still hadn't left your side...but Tsunade said the odds of you waking up were a billion to zero. So...so Hinata and I got married Sakura..."
Sakura felt her world break to pieces. Her eyes darted down to ring on Naruto's finger. This wasn't a joke. This was real.

"Leave....just...this is just too much."

Naruto shook his head.

"Please Sakura...you were in a coma for-"

Sakura snapped standing for the bed.

"FOR FOUR YEARS! I KNOW!"

Her gaze landed on his.

"I. Know."

She threw on the clothes that were laid out for her. I black tank top, black shorts, mesh short sleeve top, boots, and her kunia holsters along with her gloves.

"I need some time...you have to understand Naruto...I love you...but you are married now and I am four years in the future. 21 now. Tell Tsunade I'll be back later to speak. Right now I need some time to myself."

With that she pushed past Naruto who stood dumb struck.

Sakura passed Ino in the hallway who stood next to Hinata. Thye both saw the tears littering Sakura's eyes and as she saw Hinata she broke into a full speed run straight for something, anything. She ran and ran all the way to the bridge where team seven once met. She fell to her knee's and cried.

She cried about everything. Naruto being married, her coma, the four years she missed.

Suddenly she felt two strong arms encircle her. Gasping she looked up and saw the infamous silver hair the defied gravity.

"Kakashi..."

She whispered. Her heart soared. As much as she loved Naruto, Kakashi always had been the one holding her heart, though he didn't know it.

"It's good to see you awake."

He whispered, his voice cracking. He was crying.

Pulling away Sakura looked into his exposed eyes, his mask covering the rest of his face. He hadn't aged a day. Kakashi was now thirty-five and looked to be Sakura's age. She smiled at him.

"It's good to see you Kakashi."

She whispered cupping his face. He pressed his forhead to her's as tears escaped her eyes. He hugged her tightly memorizing her scent. He wouldn't let her ever be hurt again.

Never Again.
