Chapter 2: Promise
Its morning and she know that Sasuke has left
Slowly she raised her head and looked at the team seven picture on her night stand.
Why?
Why must everything be so complicated now?
She had a crush on him
That boy named Uchiha Sasuke in her team
She always hoped that one day
He will do the same
Now her wish came true
They loved each other
But now
She must marry Uchiha Itachi
Uchiha Sasukes older brother
Sakuras grandfather's last wish before his death were that one day Sakura can marry to an Uchiha
So before his death he made a deal with the Uchiha clan
"Haruno Sakura will marry Uchiha Itachi"
But that was unknown to her until she reached the age of sixteen
Their engagement can be canceled
Once Sakura reached the age of 22 and neither part have feelings for each other
This marriage will be broken.
So she never had to worry about it that one day she will really marry Itachi
Until now
She will marry him in less than two months
Oh how she hated her grandfather
But she hated Uchiha Sasuke more
But in the same time
She loves him…
All those years
They have gone through so much together…
He made so many promises to her
Too many which she knew he can't keep them
"Sasuke-kun" she whispered and rolled to the other side of her bed. She closed her eyelids and memories from the past brought back to her mind…
"You are a big liar"
-16 years ago-
They were seven if she remembers correctly. That day it was her very first time being in the Uchiha mansion.
For many years the Haruno clan has been a good aid for the Uchiha clan. Haruno clan was well known for their skills of chakra controls and they will use it to help the Uchiha clan shinobis to improve their chakra skills.
Sakura were crying while Sasuke just sat there looking down at the ground. They have sneaked out from his house and went to a nearby park to play. Some bigger boys of the Uchiha clan started to pick on Sakuras pink hair. They started to pull at Sakuras hair and pushed her, making her hit the ground.
Seeing this happening Sasuke started to fight those bullies and after some minutes of kicks and punches the boys left them alone. Sasuke wiped of some sweat from his forehead and walked to Sakura who were still crying.
"Stop crying, they are gone" said Sasuke as he helped Sakura up.
Sakura looked up at the boy who just saved her from the bullies.
"But they hurt you Sasuke-kun…and it's because of my ugly hair" she said while she looked guilty and ashamed touching her own pink hair.
"…It's not your fault, and your hair is not ugly… I think they are pretty"
Sakura wiped away her tears and looked at Sasuke again.
"I will get stronger… then I will protect you"
Now she can see the light blush on his face, and a wide smile were on her lips.
They walked back to the mansion
That day Uchiha Sasuke just made his first promise to her…
-11 years ago—
They were twelve years old. They have been paired up together in a genin team with Hatake Kakashi and Uzumaki Naruto.
Sakura was happy, together with Sasuke and Naruto in team seven.
But that year they were assigned to the chunin exam.
And there they meet the legendary sanin Orochimaru
Everything started there
Orochimaru is a big treat to Konoha, it would be good by sending a spy to him, to observe his action and treats to Konoha
And by coincidence that snake wanted Sasuke.
So the Hokage and Sasukes father, Uchiha Fukagu decided to make Sasuke play along the game…
By making him the spy at Orochimaru base
Sasuke willingly accepted the mission.
But no one in team seven knows
That night when Sasuke were leaving the village to become the missing nin
Sakura were there trying to stop him.
"Why are you leaving?" She asked while she watched him walk pass her
"Its late, go back to sleep" he replied and continued to walk.
They spoke for a while there she was confessing her love for him and crying.
He silently listened and kept quiet until he decided to continue his way out of the village.
Then Sakura wanted to scream for people, to come here and stop him but failed when she feel that Sasuke were behind her.
"Sakura…thank you"
With that she fall to the darkness but whispered a few words only Sasuke could understand
"You just broke your promise"
That night he left the village
He became the missing nin and left everything behind
Just like what his father wanted him to be
-8 years ago-
They should be fifteen that year
She became chunin and one of the top medicine nin after her master, the legendary sanin Tsunade the slung master.
Naruto followed Jiraya one of the legendary sanin, the toad master
And Sasuke
Sasuke became the missing nin, followed the Orochimaru the snake master
Everyone was giving up
Hoping that he will one day come back
But team seven never gave up
Itachi never gave up
The news that Sasuke killed Orochimaru spread over the village
But then another new that he joined Akatsuki also comes like a shock
That year the fourth ninja was started
It was a horrible sight
People chasing after Naruto's ninth tail beast
And Sasuke
They met once again they fought
And there
There we meet Uchiha Mandara
The man behind the beast chasing
And the one who started the war
But in the end Sasuke fought with us and manage to take down Mandara
He came back to the village
And everything became clear…
His father explained everything about Sasukes mission
Their team was finally complete again
While Sakura was healing Sasuke
He whispered again
"I never break a promise"
Sakura looked shocked but then she closed her eyes and smiled as tears were falling
"Idiot…"
- 2 years ago—
They were on a mission
It was an A-ranked mission
They were fighting a bunch of rough ninjas
It was a difficult battle and she was tired
So tired from all fight and healing
And she didn't realize that she was away from her team
And now she was trapped
Four ninjas where surrounded around her and she know it's impossible for her to win in that state
Just when she was expecting the death
Sasuke came and saved her
"I will protect you" those words left his mouth and quickly he with his skills he killed all four enemies who tried to kill her a moment ago.
She watched him collapse and used her last energy to catch him before he hit the ground.
"…idiot…why?"
"I promised you…"
She hugged him while the rain poured down from the sky as they waited for the backup
Sasuke always tried his best to keep his promise
"Sasuke-kun…promises me… never leave me"
He smiled and nodded
While she just kept crying
~1 year ago~
It the Konoha festival
Everyone from the village was out
People where dancing, drinking and having fun
She walked around with Ino
Wearing a blue kimono with the cherry blossom pattern
Not too long, Ino disappeared with Shikamaru
Leaving her alone to explore the festival
She spotted Naruto drinking with Kakashi in while screaming after some ramen
Better not to get involved there
She continued with her exploring while suddenly two men walked up to her
"Where are you going miss?"
She ignored them and tried to move past them
Just then one of the drunken man held her wrist and dragged her to him
"Don't go so fast, let us have some fun…"
She can't move in her position because the kimono was holding her back
When she was about to use her strength
Someone pulled her out from the man's grip
"Don't touch her"
She looked up and saw Sasuke
"Sasuke-kun"
He didn't response but glared at the drunken shinobi
Scared they walked away from the angry Uchiha
When she watched them leave
She realized that Sasuke held his arm around her waist
"Ano… Sasuke-kun, you can let me go no-"
He pulled her closer to him and in a second, Sakura found herself buried on Sasukes chest, both his arm wrapped around her.
"Im not letting you go…" he whispered
She was shocked and looked up to him
Wide emerald eyes meeting his gaze
Just then the fireworks set off
People were gazing up to the glowing sky
Ignoring them
"I will never let you go…"
She hugged him back and silently cried while nodding her head
"Then don't you ever let me go"
~ 2 month ago~
Sakura was happy
She walked through the corridor which leads to her office in the Konoha hospital
Sasuke left on a one week mission along with Naruto and Kakashi and today they will be back
And today it was her last day of being 22 year old since tomorrow
Tomorrow she will turn 23
Today she will finally break off the engagement with Itachi
She always saw him as her brother
And tomorrow
She can officially tell people that Haruno Sakura were dating Uchiha Sasuke
When she was about to open the door which leads to her room
She noticed that someone was standing a few steps away from her
She moved her gaze to face the person
Uchiha Itachi wearing his ANBU uniform
He looks so much like Sasuke
"Itachi-san? What brings you here?" She asked politely
He didn't answer but looked at her
"I came to remind you that tonight six o'clock at the Uchiha mansion… we will be having the meeting so don't be late"
"Of course, I won't miss it don't worry"
She smiled while he still looked at her
She don't know why but she felt that theres something more
"Is there something more Itachi-san?"
He didn't response but starred at her
"Nothing, I will see you later then Sakura"
Before he left he gave her a smirk and left
Sakura?
When did Itachi call her Sakura? He usually calls her Sakura-san… why the sudden change?
She ignored it and continued in to her office.
Sakura was sitting beside her parents in front of Sasukes parents but there were no Itachi in sight
She changed from her usual outfit to a formal Kimono
Now they were waiting for Itachi
And he is late
"Where did Itachi go?" growled Fugaku while Mikoto sat there silently
Sakuras parent looked worried to
So did she
Just when they were about to discuss the matter of breaking the agreement off
The paper door slides open
There stood Itachi
"Itachi! Where did you go? Don't you remember that we have to discus-"
"Im not breaking this engagement off"
Her eyes grew wide
Did she heard him right or was she too tired?
"What? But Itachi-"
"I have feelings for Sakura, the engagement said that if non parties have feeling until she reach 22 it will be broke off… But I do have feelings for her which mean the engagement still work"
No word were slipped out from her
She can't hear what her parent were saying
She was to socked to care
Just then another three men appeared
Naruto…
Kakashi…
Sasuke
His too was to shocked to speak
"I'm so happy! Well then let's forget about breaking this agreement off and let's plan the wedding!"
She starred at Itachi who turned around to look at Sasuke
"Will you be happy for my sake… ototo"
She waited for him to tell
To tell them that they were dating each other and that he loved her
"…congratulation… nii-san"
That's not what she expected…
Everything turned black and she faded in to the darkness…
"You broke your promise…Sasuke-kun"
Tada!
