Without him
Sakura said good night to her fellow nurses as her shift at the hospital ended and she stepped out of the white building. She had cramps all over due to a six hour operation she had just performed so Sakura decided to take the quick way home. With that she disappeared in a swirl of cherry blossom petals and re-appeared outside of her apartment door.
She walked straight to the shower once she was inside, striped off and sighed as the hot water massaged her tense back. After about fifteen minutes of relaxing she got out and dried her waist length pink hair, then put on a white silk night dress and slipped under the covers of her double bed. She sighed once again. 'Well that's another day gone...without him.' She soon drifted of to a restless sleep.
The next morning she awoke like usual at 6:25, massacring her alarm clock in the process. She had a quick shower and ten fixed her hair. Sakura tied her long tresses into a high pony tail (A/N: Like Ino's but a lot more thinker and more layered, similar to Tsunade's when she was a teenager but longer.) and left her chin length bangs to frame her face. After a few minutes of browsing her walk in wardrobe, Sakura pulled out a fitted low cut red shirt with the Haruno symbol on the back. Next she pulled out some ¾ black combat trousers, over the top of that she wore a mid-calf red skirt that had two slits up each side with a Haruno symbol on the bottom. Last of all she put on some open strap black high-heels. (A/N: Like Tsunade's)
Sakura took one last look at herself in the mirror then walked over to the door, when to her surprise there was a knock on the other side. She opened it to find Shizune standing there.
"Hello Shizune."
"Good morning Sakura, Lady Tsunade wishes to see you in her office right away and has given you the day off at the hospital."
"Oh, okay" Sakura smiled at the older woman but it was a fake smile. Shizune noticed this and inwardly sighed. She knew for a fact that ever since he left, Sakura has never been the same. Her once bright emerald eyes are now dull. Her once gorgeous and emotional smile and expressions are now forced. That boy changed her so much. He took her already fragile heart and shattered it, and then he turned the small pieces into dust. She still remains that was today but she never shows it. It's his entire fault. It's all because of the boy she once loved; Sasuke Uchiha (A/N: Please correct me if I'm wrong with the spelling of Uchiha)
"I'll walk with you if you want?" Shizune offered.
Sakura nodded and the two women exited the building in silence.
"How have you been?" The ebony haired woman asked, trying to start a convocation.
"Same really."
"Um...okay."
It was only a short walk to the Hokage Tower and when they got there Tsunade's screams could be heard through out the building. Shizune shivered but it didn't affect Sakura, she was used to it. Naruto Uzumaki sprinted out of the building looking scared.
