Shattered

"Yesterday I died, Tomorrows bleeding. .

I've fallen to your sunlight." Trading Yesterday


Kakashi knew he fucked up. He knows well of Sakura's temper and was simply used to it. The reason why he stayed out all night to drink was beyond him.

He never ran away from his responsibilities.

He held her hand the whole time for the doctor to come back. She slept peacefully, that was the only time that she was calm.

In her sleep.

"Hatake-san, let us speak outside." He stood and gently let go.

"She just has a cold, probably due to stress." I sighed out of relief, she continued read through the clipboard.

"She's below the average weight though, I'd advise to feed her more and possibly a second helpings." He nodded, she was avoiding to eat lately.

"Hatake-san was she assaulted? The blood on her dress I believe isn't her own." He shook his head,

"I think she was the one who assaulted him." He answered truthfully, she nodded slowly.

"Well she can leave when she wakes up, just make sure she sleeps and get her nutrients."


"I'll be your substitute for today, since your teacher called in absent." Yamato scratched his head as all the students weren't paying attention.

"Everyone..." He grew annoyed and scratched the chalkboard.

Everyone stayed quiet and was terrified from his scary face.

"W-where is Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto was the only brave one to ask, he knew something must have happened to Sakura. She wasn't here either.

"He's taking care of personal business." Naruto glared at Sai who remained indifferent to Yamato's scary expression.

Sasuke laid his head against the desk, he hardly slept last night.

He heard everything that went on at Sakura's place. Something inside him wanted him to check on her. He knew that she was alone, and heard her quiet crying through the thin walls.

He found her interesting and was simply curious about her.

She had so many secrets.


What time was it? Hell, what DAY was it?

I attempted to open my eyes, my eyelids felt heavy. I sighed as I sat up, "Sakura?"

I felt the pressure on my hand lightly squeeze. I laid back down and shook my head, "I'm at the hospital aren't I."

There was no response. I pushed the blankets off and searched for my clothes. I can't stand hospital dresses.

I stared at the different clothing and looked back at Kakashi, "Wow, you bought me clothes? Now that's a shock."

I began undressing, rapid footsteps echoed out the door, I smirked. 'that's only part of your punishment Kakashi.'

I looked down at my outfit and was fairly surprised. I wore a new grey long sleeve, with a white tank top for an undershirt, paired with long black jeans and black ankle winter boots with the final touch of a knitted white scarf.

Not bad, Kakashi sure knew about women's fashion. I can't imagine him asking for the sales clerk about what teenage girls wear nowadays.

I walked out the room and passed Kakashi, he silently followed.


"I'm surprised you wanted to come here." I pulled the scarf up to my face as a shield from the cold.

We were at the place where Kakashi announced I would live with him and he'd take care of me.

I shrugged, "I think its good to come back here every once in a while."

Good memories were here, I needed the change of atmosphere. I pulled him by his sweater to the bench that over looked our old town.

"I used to take you here when you were a brat." I smirked, "If I recall you were a stupid teenager."

"Women swayed at the thought of a super young single dad." He scratched his head and turned away, "You still remember that eh."

I smiled, I haven't had thought about the good times in awhile, made the stress not hurt as bad.

There was a silence, I stared at the descending sun in the beautiful sky of oranges, violets, and blues.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I probably responded too soon, Kakashi is staring at me now. He sighed, and placed a light hand on my shoulder, "I'm sorry."

I narrowed my eyes and shook his hand off, "I don't accept apologies from men who hide there face."

He looked around and faced me again, "Will you talk to me if I take it off?" I smirked. I thought Kakashi wasn't serious but he leaned in closer his hand slid to his mask and he-

"What are you two doing here?" A familiar voice echoed, I looked up at the raven haired boy.

"Sasuke?" Kakashi pulled away, and made an excuse to get me some hot coco.

He walked towards the railing, "I'm surprised you'd be here. This is really far from Nagoya." I stood up and followed, "Dido."

There was silence, the outdoor lights all began to turn on at once.

"Why weren't you at school?" I giggled, "I'm surprised you'd ask." He didn't respond, I sighed.

I looked up at the brilliant bright moon. "I'm sure you know why."

I let the questions stop at that and walked away from him in search of stupid Kakashi. In defeat of not finding the man I just walked to our car and sat on the trunk.

Since somebody had the keys. I sighed, this place had my worst and best memories. 'Why in the world would Sasuke be here?'

"Your going to leave a dent on the car if you have your feet up like that. I turned towards Kakashi and he held a bag.

He unlocked the doors, "What took you so long? Scratch that, where did you go? I was looking for you."

He digged through the bag "Well Its getting late so I thought about getting some food." He handed me my share.

My eye's widened, "My favorite! I remember when you would sneak this into the house!" Good memories filled me but just as quickly the bad ones followed suit.

I looked down and tried not to think about the past. I quickly stuffed my face with food to not think about it, just as quickly as I thought about it and turned towards Kakashi he was already done eating like usual.

I finished soon after. "Not to discourage you, but I'm really glad your eating Sakura."

My ears perked at this, "I guess I didn't really notice I was avoiding it?" There was a silence,

"Hey Sakura, lets talk." I looked out the window, It was dark outside. The only light was from the light pole above the car.

"I'm trying to be apart of your life the best I can, so don't shut me out anymore." I looked at Kakashi, we haven't had these serious talks in awhile. His sudden change of personality almost made me forget about this side of him.

I looked back at him, "I'm not going to ask what happened, I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you this time."

I smiled weakly, "I don't accept apologies from guys with masks on remember?" He scratched his head.

"I guess I can't get away this time."

"Nope." I giggled as I waited impatiently for him to remove it. 'bzzzzzzzzz!'

"Damn it!" I cursed as I looked at my phone, I glared at the screen.

:Naruto

Get better! See you at school 2morrow!

I sighed, Kakashi already started the car and we were on our way back home.

"You still own me that apology!" I glared out the window and we drove away from our home.


"Hey Sasuke!" I attempted to give him a smile but he ignored it. I sighed and followed him to school, "So what did I miss?" He wasn't answering like usual.

So when it's something personal thats when he gets talkative? Asshole.

"You were probably wondering what I was doing so late with a teacher huh?" He stopped dead in his tracks.

Gotcha.

Sasuke may seem cold and expressionless, but I can read right through him.

I walked past him and giggled. "'What's there relationship between those two?' thats what your thinking huh?"

He grabbed my wrist, I turned back to look at him. He was looking away but I could tell his pale face turned into a bright crimson blush.

I smirked and pushed my hand away, "Well its a secret."

If I was who I used to be two years ago I think I could of been head over heels for Sasuke.

I turned back and he was still motionless, I sighed and walked towards him and pulled his wrist.

"Were gunna be late! I don't wanna be the one who gets in trouble."

He followed obediently, I felt another set of eyes on us. Of course it'd be that bastard Sai, 'I know you still love me.' My eye's widened at the memory.

I felt disgusted, why was I thinking about what he said?

I looked back at him, I was shocked. I've never seen Sai glare before...ever. Aside from Naruto but that didn't count.

I followed his glare towards Sasuke. What?

I let go of his hand and walked away.


I sat on the roof eating Kakashi's homemade bento. He was really trying to make it up to me. I mean, he bought me an outfit AND made me a bento. Which was extremely cute I might add.

I guess I can forgive him.

"Sakura-chaaannn!" I glanced towards Naruto, Sasuke was with him. 'that's surprising.'

"You made a bento? Let me have some!" I glanced down and pulled it away from his view, "No way, It was a bento especially made for me."

I smirked, I knew I had Sasuke's attention now.

"Kakashi made it?" I smiled, "Yep! It's really good." I giggled.

I really shouldn't mess with Sasuke too much. I know I'm giving him the wrong idea, it's just terribly funny it's hard to stop.

"Then I'll make you a bento tomorrow!" I crunched up my face, "Last time you did it ended up just being all ramen!"

He laughed, Sasuke seemed really confused. I knew he was dying to know of mine, Naruto's, and Kakashi's relationship.

Too bad it's a secret.

I stood up and walked towards the door, "Well I'm going to go bug Kakashi, see you in art Sasuke."


Sasuke POV

'Why am I so curious about this girl? I wanna know every last thing about her.'

I glared at her previous spot, 'Shes egging me on too.'

I sighed, "Why do you always do that teme? Your going to get a grey hair." I rolled my eyes, "Your going to kill your liver from too much sodium."

The blonde glared and pointed, "Wanna fight jackass?"

I smirked, "I don't think Sakura would like seeing you with a black eye." he froze and put his fist down.

"Oh whatever." I narrowed my eyes. 'Thats it? He makes a huge fuss and as soon as I mention her he stops like some obedient dog.'

'Interesting.'


Sasuke is growing a weird interest in Sakura. What's with the relationship between Sakura, Naruto, and Kakashi? What about Sai?
