Know what? Yeah, if your having a mini reunion with someone, it wouldn't be best to have it in a cafe, a small one at that. But that's how it happened--

"S-Sakura-chan?" A tall, handsome raven-haired boy said. At first I titlted my head at him, while Gaara had his usual half amused half digusted smile.

"Neh, Teme... Who's... SAKURA-CHAN YOUR BACK!" Naruto yelled from behind. And in seconds he had a death hug around me. Unannounced to everyone, Gaara was slightly twicthing.

"Dobe, you're gonna choke her!" Sasuke said half realistically, and half amused, not much though. Mostly realistically. Naruto let go, and as soon as he did that I launched myself at Sasuke-kun. Now he was in a death hug.

Shikamaru were smirking from where they sat. Sigh Like old times... Troublesome...

Sasuke patted Sakura's back awkwardly. "Erm, Sakura-chan you can let go now." He said with a poker face on. I took a step back and studied him intensely. "Neh, Sasuke-kun, when did you get so... " Naruto cut in. "Heartless? After you left, 16 years ago!"

"Oh! Gomen Sasuke-kun, but I'm back now!" I said with a warm smile, his expression left emotionless. I looked behind at the others for any other explanation. But then I noticed his expression wasn't emotionless. He was more like glaring... Glaring at...

Gaara. I turned around and remembered. "Oh! This is Gaara-kun. Gaara-kun-- Sasuke-kun, Naruto, Hinata-chan, Ino-chan, Tenten-chan, Neji-san, Shika-san." He merely grunted in reply, still holding a glaring contest with the young Uchiha.

I side-stepped away from the 'action'. "Naruto" I whispered once I was close enough. "What... What exactly happened to Sasuke-kun?" Naruto put on a nervous smile. "What happened was..."

Flashback

(The very first day without Sakura, 7:00 a.m) Naruto looked at his friend worriedly. Sasuke had never been this quiet, and isolated. The Uchiha's had held a sleepover for Sasuke and his friends, maybe it would take his mind off of Sakura moving.

It wasn't working. "Erm, pancakes Sasuke-chan?" Mikoto said nervoulsy once she heard the dead silence between the 7 five year olds. Shikamaru was still sleeping, Neji was meditating and the girls had popcorn in their hands, waiting for Sasuke to say something to Naruto.

Sasuke shook his head, his hair now out of his eyes-- only for a split second. And in that second, Naruto saw it.

Sasuke was crying. Not much, not like a waterfall. But enough to show he was never going to be the same. Because, as Naruto had put it, Sakura was his everything. Or at least the most precious thing in the young Uchiha's heart.

And he never knew it yet. Mikoto gave Naruto a sympathetic smile, as if to say 'you can cover this right?' Naruto nodded. Mikoto smiled and returned to making breakfast. Naruto gestured for the others to come. The followed, as they left the little raven-haired boy on the floor. Thinking.

Shikamaru and Neji knew what he was going to say. He was going to say that they had to fix it, maybe help him forget. Naruto shook his head. "We're not going to make him forget. We're going to make him remember."

The others exchanged puzzled looks. Naruto rephrased what he had said. "We're going to make him remember the good times. Some of which that weren't with Sakura. Maybe we should take him to the arcade or something. Maybe the carnival even. This year it's called 'Dancing Petals'"

Ino nodded vigorously. "Yeah! Last year was 'Snow Fall' My friend went, she said it was awesome!" Hinata and Tenten smiled. "Okay, we'll go tomorrow" Shikamaru concluded as Mikoto called them to breakfast.

(The Next day, At the carnival)

"Come on Sasuke!" Ino yelled while dragging along a reluctant Uchiha. He kept his poker face on as the 6 dragged him along. It was the day of the carnival, he knew Sakura wanted to go to it.

Naruto's mind raced. Aahhh! This isn't working! Why does Teme have to care so much?! Naruto scolded a bit. But then he saw all the cherry blossom balloons. He looked back at the carnival map.

He mentally slapped his forehead. This isn't good He looked back at the others, they had the same expression as him on their faces. All of the sudden Sasuke fled from Ino's and Tenten's grasp. He started to tear down every single cherry blossom balloon, anything symbolizing that particular flower.

Everyone looked at him sympathetically. His mother was well known in Konoha, she had also told them of the pink-haired girl moving. And how it literally tore Sasuke a part. Sasuke took down the last balloon, walked past the others and headed home.

The six looked at eachother. They sighed, they all thought the same thing. He's never going to be the same.

End of Flashback

I looked at the ground for awhile. It was oblivious to me that the two had stopped glaring at eachother to hear the story. I stood there, looking for a moment. It's my fault... isn't it... Then I brought my chin up, with a somewhat forced smile.

Then I'm going to fix it. The six of them looked at eachother, then smiled. They knew only one person can bring Sasuke back to his normal self.

And that was Sakura.

Yay done! I actually had free time, so I decided to make the new chappie. I hope everyone likes it. Please don't get mad! I didn't mean to make Sasuke all... emo. It just sort of went in with the story. He will get better, with the help of Sakura that is. Well, not if Gaara can help it. I know this was a little short. Sorry about that! I'll try to make the next chapter longer. Anyways, don't forget to review! I suck at cliffies! Ja ne!
