Clinging on to you

Ino fixed the bento up just like Sasuke liked it, rice balls with honey mustard on it with sushi, bread chop sticks, veggie and pork stew, and the complete the meal some candy and ramen. They were in Oshoto park, with full privacy. Their University owned the park so it was only for students, and most of them went home for the summer.

"Hahaha, Naruto would love this stuff, he likes ramen too much. Ino…can I ask you something?" Sasuke asked her gently. Ino nodded, Sasuke laid down and put his head on her lap.

"I shouldn't be like this right?" He asked hesitantly waiting for the answer. Ino took awhile to answer because she wanted to answer as truthfully as possible.

"You're perfect to me." Was all Ino said and all Ino had to say, Sasuke can tell liars from people who told the truth really well. Ino shot up in a jolt she stumbled because she shot right up into a heavy branch. Sasuke slammed his head to the ground. In seconds, they ran around holding their heads and fell right into each other.

"Hmm...what in the hell Ino?" He said holding his head as if it would fall off if he didn't; Ino's eyes grew large if her ears had wings they'd be in space. She giggled a sorry and explained she forgot drinks she quickly ran inside to go get them.

When she began to take a long time Sasuke became very worried and took 3 minutes to think of a lie to tell Ino to explain why he scratched his tummy raw. He got up and began to think the worse the minute he stood up he went back down in pain and worry.

"Hnnnn…nobody hurt her. She's okay…she's taking a light nap, will wake up in such a forceful manner because she forgot me and will never leave me again. Ever, yeah…" Sasuke said that sounded pretty good to him.

The truth is she ran straight into Sai and he refused to let her go until he found out why she's still with Sasuke when Sasuke needs help, professional assistance. No answer, not even heartfelt seemed to satisfy him. The fact Ino was shedding tears didn't quench his thirst to find the real reason even if it had been told to him time and time again. She got fed up, and demanded release immediately or severe pain WILL be brought upon him and his psychiatristass. Reluctantly though he felt it no threat he let her go. With sodas' in her hand it held no meaning she ran to Sasuke in tears. In that moment Sasuke seemed to have grown up 16 years than his former 3 year old acting self. With equaled his actual age, he held Ino tightly and without fail he found the answer to his question as soon as she was done crying. He knew Sai had something to do with it, Sai hadn't thought of Sasuke's real anger, because it hadn't surfaced to anyone. It fed his misanthropy in ways Sai hadn't even imagined…the dumbass.

Sasuke's rage seethed through all inches of his body and ordered instant contentment with no hold backs. He ran into the building unable to think or process anything until Sai was completely dealt with. Ino struggled to keep up with him. Sasuke drew his sword and all the running made Sai suspicious. And how suddenly they stopped caused him much alarm because it stopped too close to the door. Sai made himself ready for battle. Ino stopped just before the turn to go down the expensive hallway on her and Sasuke's floor, blood splattered along with the light directly in front of the door. Though it wasn't Sakura's floor she lived on the lower-middle class was screaming for Sai's life. In 5 minutes the battle ended but the verbal fight only began. It all ended when Ino heard a slap and came running down the hallway.

"Leave. Now." Sakura said hitting his chest doing no damage.

"Fuck. Off." Sasuke said for once since he was 12 holding his ground against…her.

"I broke up with you, and you still love me so you came after Sai." Sakura said as if she figured out Di Vince's Code in 3 seconds flat. Sasuke looked horrified, Sakura settled for a smirk.

"And I don't love you, Sai's the guy now." Sakura said twisted-like trying to be sadistic but having too much fun being plain mean no stern face about it.

After the shock on Sasuke's face subsided he laughed…the hardest in all his 19 years.

"Sakura…please…" He begged still laughing.

Sakura gained power from his supposedly so-sad-he's-crying face and told him she might think about it. She didn't face Sai, who for the record does not like her at all never did. So she thought he was jealous out of his mind; when in actuality thought she was crazy out of her mind.

"No…please….DO NOT MAKE ME LAUGH, because you have it all wrong." Sasuke said harshly only beginning, pushing her to the ground. Sakura's face switched from cloud-nine top of the world to complete horrification.

"Within the 65 seconds I grew up, I thought, how the hell did I let you do this to me: Before I even came in the room you were talking constantly about other guys. You beat me, make me beg you because I loved you, you mutilated my chest times over, you'd cut me, tell me things that weren't true, started rumors to glorify yourself, hid me, mentally broke me into a way I thought I could'n't've lived without you, embarrassed me, yearned for me in too many ways until I thought I was bad that I couldn't meet all of them, and I realized I deeply…" Sasuke said looking up as if there was a beautiful sky and continued.

"Hated you, unforgettable, undeniable, uncontrollably, deeply detestation, such extreme excessive dispise, that I wanted to kill my self it was too much hate for me to handle, but you made me disguise it as a different reason, because it couldn't please you. I hate you more than anyone's ever hated anyone before and you more than deserved it trash." Sasuke said leaving.

**

A month and a half passed since the end December fight. And Sasuke's resolution was to forget Sakura and Sai, and Ino's to dedicate everything to Sasuke since he already does that for her.

Valentine's Day:

Ino woke up smiling, a good hour before the more mature Sasuke even rose out of bed. She made him waffles! He loves homemade blueberry waffles, fresh homemade OJ, toast with jelly and butter 1 slice meshed together, a love poem that made his heart sore and put him on the highest cloud-nine and he stayed there.

THE END.
