I don't own Naruto. But I do own Wren.
Here you go kohanoharu no more bold.
One more thing just to warn you I'll be putting little sayings in this story at certain parts.
Chapter 2 - Promise
Sasuke glances at Sakura before smirking and looking back at the sky, "You know…You aren't as annoying as I thought." Sakura blushes then smiles and says. "Thanks." Sasuke smirks again and closes his eyes; oddly enough the silence made him wonder his mind back to the same person once again. Cherry blossom petal flows around them.
Sakura looks at Sasuke then back at the sky and starts humming. Sasuke sighs a bit. "You know…the only reason I've ever called you and Naruto annoying… is because I've always been afraid…" he confesses slowly. He feels like he can trust Sakura. Sakura stops humming and looks at Sasuke, "Afraid of what?"
Sasuke closed his eyes and feels the soft wind blowing by. "Every time I've ever gotten close or attached to anyone they always get taken away from me or killed…So I figures I pushed everyone away… No one would get attached and neither would I…and only a few people have ever stuck by me in my life…"
"I stuck by you Sasuke. And I always will." Sakura says. Sasuke smirks slightly, "I know you will…You're a lot like an old friend old mine…She was very loyal…" he sighs and closes his eyes. Sakura smiles a little and looks back up at the sky.
Sasuke's eyes droops slightly as he stares at the ground. "Wren…" he mutters to himself, barely audible, again memories flashing slowly in his head. Sakura looks at Sasuke through worry eyes. "Sasuke are you ok? Who is Wren?" Sasuke shakes his head. For the second time in his life he wasn't okay.
"She was the first person there…Wren was…after Itachi killed everyone…Every time I broke down she was there…but she lied…She told me that she would always be there and would always love me…but then she…" he drifts off slightly. Wren had caused so much joy and so much pain at the same time and it didn't seem possible. "What did she do Sasuke?" Sakura asks him.
"
You said you'd always be there for me...
But your not...and it's my fault...it's all my fault..."
"Wren joined Itachi…Itachi told me everything she ever said was a lie…and she just stood there smirking as if satisfied that she had managed to get so close…" he clenches his fists slightly. He still cares about Wren and still loves her like the best friend she had always been to him, he can't let go of the past, and it is slowly eating away at him.
Sakura looks at the ground. "Sorry. I really don't see how someone can be so cruel and backstabbing like that." Sakura looks up at Sasuke. "Don't worry. I'm always by your side ready to help." she says smiling a little him. Sasuke glances at Sakura. "That's the different between the two of you. You always stick to your word. Thanks." he says, whispering the last part.
Sakura stands up and stretches. "No prob. But anyways it's time for us to be getting back. It's getting dark." Sakura holds out her hand to Sasuke. Sasuke looks up at Sakura as cherry blossom petals behind her dances to the sunset. "Sasuke, you ok?" Sakura's voice asks. Sasuke nods and takes her hand and stands up.
As they walk back toward Konoha gates they said nothing. Sakura finally decides to say something before they go their separate ways. "Sasuke I hope you know that what I said was true. I'm here ready to help you anyway that I can. I don't care what it is." she says folding her hands behind her back.
Sasuke looks at Sakura and smirks. "Yea, I know what you said was true. And I believe you too. Just promise me you'll stick to your words." Sakura smiles alittle. "Promise." Sakura turns toward her house. "Well see ya tomorrow Sasuke." Sakura waves to him. Without another word they went their different ways for tonight just listening to the wind or to their inner person go on and on bragging.
