Summary:

It has been almost 3 years after the war. Sakura and Sasuke are together. If only Sasuke would propose to her it would be complete. But the thing is, the Uchiha doesn't even know how to propose. Just Sakura, don't make any mistakes soon! (SxS NxH)

What She Wants

Chapter 2 – Calendar

OTP- SasuSaku


The Calendar - Panic! At The Disco

"I feel like an ambulance chaser of fate. Pray I could replace her, forget the way her tears taste."

7:30 PM

Sasuke stirred to his alarm beeping. Reaching over to the side of his bed to see if the fight was just a dream, to his disappointment, she wasn't there.

He listened to the tone for a few seconds, and then slammed his hand on the off button. Sasuke rose like the dead and turned around his apartment.

They had practically moved in together. Her scent was graced around. Her perfume bottles on top of his dresser with a few of her own clothes hanging up in the closest, mixed with his, lazily. With random spare bras she never managed to bring home. She usually always crashed at his house for… personal reasons.

They were in love, what do you expect?

Sasuke rubbed his forehead and looked out his window. Nothing more than the morning sun rising. He took his usual shower and threw on his Jounin vest, black turtle neck, slightly baggy black pants, and his usual black ninja sandals.

He picked up his kunai pack and strapped it to his pants. Grabbing the headband off his counter top and tied it around his forehead. He was a part of Konoha once again.

"Teme!" He heard a voice call from outside. He walked over to his window and opened it up.

"Hey Sasuke, you didn't tell me Sakura was leaving on her first solo mission! We should have had ramen to congratulate her!"

Did he know when it was a good and bad time to do these obnoxious things?

"Sakura and I aren't on good terms." He stood there, as casual as ever.

"You guys broke—?"

"No, idiot." Sasuke ran his fingers through his hair, "I'll be down in a moment."

Sasuke and Naruto were now walking down the street to the Konohagakure's back entrance. She was heading towards Kumogakure. The Raikage was holding out a scroll that was top secret. Tsunade only trusted Sakura to be doing this. It was B ranked because she had to pass by the Sound. Sasuke was high strung and if any of Orochimaru's followers still lurked there, she'd be attacked for sure.

Including if they knew who she was. 'The Love of Uchiha Sasuke'

They must all hate Sasuke for killing their Lord.

"I can't let her go alone,"

"Sasuke… you know that isn't our choice… Besides all she is trying to get is a scroll as she told me."

"Yeah, who else could be after that scroll?" Sasuke paused. Then he walked down the other ally towards the Hokage's head quarters.

"Sa-Sasuke… Teme, what are you doing?"

Sasuke continued walking in a fast pace, avoiding civilians on his way.

He ran up stairs to the entrance of the Hokage's head quarters and knocked onto it rapidly.

"Enter."

Sasuke opened the door, with his eyes narrowed.

"Sasuke… I see what this is about…" Tsunade sighed. "I am sorry but I can't do anything. She has left already."

Sasuke's heal turned,

"Sasuke I cannot let you leave the village to go after her. If you do, I will count you as a missing-nin. No excuses."

Tsunade wanted Sakura to prove to everyone that she was strong enough. She was able to get a top secret scroll from the Raikage to Tsunade in safe return.

"Tch…" He walked out the door and slammed it.

Naruto was standing near him. "Sa…suke…"

"Let's go…"

"…" Naruto followed Sasuke, "We could go see what everyone is doing?"

"No…"

They both heard a cough from behind them. Naruto and Sasuke turned around to see who it was.

"Eh Shikamaru?"

"Hi Naruto, Sasuke." He held a cigarette in his right hand. Sasuke eyed it,

"Shikamaru" Sasuke spoke lowly.

"Hm?"

"Can you give me one of those?" Naruto looked at Sasuke, surprised.

"Sasuke, you know what that can do to your body?"

"I don't care."

Shikamaru grunted and pulled out a pack. He flicked it and a cigarette popped out of the box half way.

"Take it before I change my mind."

"Sasuke!"

Sasuke glared at Naruto then took the cigarette out of the container. Shikamaru flipped open his metal lighter, "Need a light?"

"Hn" Sasuke placed the cigarette in his mouth and grabbed his lighter. He lit his cigarette and took a few puffs until he got the hang of it.

"Sasuke, if Sakura finds out about this—!" Sasuke cut him off by pulling out his cigarette.

"Why would she care? She is the one who left…"

"The irony…"

Sasuke and Naruto turned back to Shikamaru, "Eh?"

"Now you know how Sakura felt when you betrayed Konoha."

Sasuke looked at him for a moment. He thought about it… thought about how he was feeling.

"Tch, whatever" Sasuke turned around and put the cigarette back into his mouth and continued walking forward.


10 pm

Sakura was running for, god knows when. She felt her legs wobble ever time her feet land on a tree. She needed to stop. She sat down on a branch to catch her breath. She felt exhausted, tired.

"I wonder what everyone is doing…" Sakura got back to her feet within 5 minutes. "I haven't been away from home alone for this long…"

She kicked off the branch and continued to Kumogakure.

5 am

It usually takes 2 days to get to Kumogakure from Konoha. But at the speed Sakura is going she will possibly get there within 2 hours.

She continued jumping branch to branch. She brushed off that she was tired. She had to prove she was strong enough. If she stopped now, who knows who could be lurking these woods waiting for someone like her to come around?

"Once I get there, I can sleep…"

She felt even more exhausted then she did a few hours ago. But she couldn't let this get in the way. She knew she was strong enough!

Flashback

Sakura was with Sasuke for about a year now. She was still a virgin, pure.

Tonight they were at Sasuke's apartment. It was July 23rd, Sasuke's birthday. Sakura decided to take this day as an opportunity.

"Sasuke-kun…" Sasuke looked at her with his casual face. They were watching a movie, but Sakura paid no attention to it.

"Hn..?"

"…I love you."

"Aa…"

Sakura looked down. He never had said it back yet.

'If he won't say it back, then why would he want to even do it?' Sakura thought.

"Why won't you say it back..?"

Sasuke looked away from the screen and at her once again.

"Sasuke-kun… say it back… just this once."

"…" He looked down.

"…You don't love me, do you?"

Sasuke looked at her, slightly surprised.

"If I didn't then why I'm here..?"

Sakura bit her lip. She shoved him away from her and she got up.

"Then why can't you say it..!"

Sasuke grabbed her and pulled her into a kiss. Bruising her lips at the clash, she grabbed onto him tightly. Sasuke pulled from the kiss.

"I will prove it." Sasuke grabbed Sakura's shirt's zipper. He pulled it all the way down and revealed her bra and stomach.

Sasuke gave her a questioned look. Sakura looked at him, embarrassed.

"I know… I don't have big breasts…" She still thought she wasn't good enough for him.

"What happened here..?"

"Huh?"

"What happened to your stomach, Sakura..?"

'Chiyo-sama!'


9 am

Sasuke woke up once again. Alone.

He was tired of waking up colder than he was used to. He scooted over to her side of his bed and breathed in her scent.

Wait.

He stopped.

"I am going crazy…"

He sat up in his bed, looking out the window.

'Where are you now..?'

Knock.

"Who is it..?" Sasuke spoke loudly.

"Kakashi, just dropped by to see if you were okay."

"I'm fine…"

"Well, Sakura told me to check up on you, if you're fine then I will be on my way!" Sasuke heard his retreating footsteps.

Sasuke got out of his bed and did his usual routine.

Thinking of Sakura, thinking of her eyes, her smile

It made him feel as if she was still here… Yet.

She wasn't


Yeah… I actually have a better plot for the next chapter! I will update ASAP!
