Just a Dream

(Sakura's p.o.v.)

It was two weeks after the day she turned 18
all dressed in white, going to the church that night
She had his box of letters in the passenger seat,
six pence in her shoe
something borrowed something *blue*

My name is Sakura Uchiha…at least, that's what it was going to be. My fiancé, Sasuke Uchiha, had gone on a mission with our best friend Naruto. They were gone for a month and there had been no word from them. Hinata and I we're really worried until finally they were back.

She and I rushed to the hospital. Hinata was glad to see her husband back. But, were was my future husband?

and when the church doors opened up wide she put her veil down trying to hide the tears oh
she just couldn't believe it
she heard the trumpets from the military band and the flowers fell out of her hands

While we were walking towards Naruto's room, a nurse stopped us and asked me to follow her. She took me into this white room. In the middle laid a person covered in a white sheet. The nurse went towards it and I followed. She uncovered the head…I stopped in my tracks.

Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I cant even breathe

And now, I stand here as my friends come up to me and try to console me. I watch as people place flowers on my fiancé's coffin. I watch as they close the lid, making me see him for the last time. I watch as he's being place in the ground. Lower and lower he keeps going.

I keep thinking that they shouldn't do this. What if he's only asleep? He would want to get out soon. Why are they placing him so far away from me?

It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

This wasn't how it was supposed to be. We were to get married in just two weeks.

The preacher man said let us bow our heads and pray
lord please lift his soul and heal this hurt
then the congregation all stood up and sang the saddest song that she ever heard

I watch and keep watching as they cover his coffin with dirt. I watch as I begin my new life without my Sasuke. Without his warmth, without his strength, without his love, without his…

"Uh, Sakura?"

I wipe my tears away and turn my head to my best friends voice.

"Sakura, it's about to rain." Naruto says with a caring smile, "I think we should leave now."

Hinata comes up behind me and says, "Here."

Then they handed her a folded up flag and
she held on to all she had left of him oh and what could've been
and then guns rang one last shot and it felt like a bullet in her heart

I turn around and she hands over something I love just as much as I love the man that was just placed below.

I look towards what I'm carrying.

Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

A sleeping, splitting image of Sasuke. I look up to Sasuke's grave and thank him for what he left behind. His son. My son. Our son. I look back down towards my three month old son, Ren. Even though my tears are still falling, I smile tenderly at him.

Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
Ohh i'll never know
It's like I'm, looking from a distance, standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now,
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

He yawns, opens his eyes, and just like before, when Sasuke and I were creating this miracle, onyx clash with emerald.

Oh this is just a dream
just a dream, ya
