So here is chapter 3...I'm having a little writers block for what to write after this, so if you have an idea you could leave a review. Thanx...oh and...nvm...just please if you have suggestions, say them or this story won't be updated in a long time. (I still have Return, Fallen Angels, and Well This Should Be Interesting to update.)
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. If I did, Gaara and Ino would have been a couple by now, and so would have Naruto and Hinata and Sakura and Sasuke.
---------------------
Dawn...it announces the arrival of a new day. It opens a new page in the book; it opens doors to different and new opportunities...it sometimes makes us feel alive. Have you ever woken up before sunrise, and watched as the sun would rise between the mountains, or over the horizon...shining on the lake or sea below? Warming the grass, and hugging the trees. Sakura has. She woke up at about four in the morning, and dressed as if she were going swimming. She put on her soft pink swimsuit, and with just a skirt and tank top on, she left the house barefoot. She loved how in the morning, the air was so clean, and how the gravel or dirt below her felt so refreshing compared to those sandals she wore everyday. She loved how the gravel would tickle her feet, and she loved how smooth the dirt was. There was one specific rode she liked to take to the lake. It was very beautiful and peaceful in the early hours. You could hear the birds chirp, and feel the soft fallen blossom between your feet. The trees hung low as if the were protecting her from the darkness, and at the end of the street you could always see the sunrise.
After about fifteen minutes of walking, she arrived to the sandy beach outlining the great lake. (Think of Lake Michigan, or Lake Superior... or one of the Great Lakes in US. (I am not from there, just went to Chicago once.) There were a few mountains surrounding her, but at the distance, at the part where you could see no end to the lake, was where nothing came between the horizon and the water, and the sunrise was perfect. Finding a nice spot, with a view directly in the middle, Sakura sat down. A soft warm breeze started to blow, and the hair tie out of her hair fell and was swept away. Her hair fell out of place, and her jade eyes softened to a more sea green kind of color. For someone who was watching her, watching as the wind riffled her skirt and loose tank top, blowing her hair, and showing her features, they would have called her beautiful; a masterpiece.
That just seemed to be the exact thing a stranger was thinking. He onyx eyes watched, and every time the wind blew, his heart would skip a beat. She was breath taking. His muscles would stiffen, it would be hard to breath, and he wouldn't be able to swallow, but an Uchiha must know how to deal with this kind of emotion. At least, it must appear that way. His facial expressions were cold, but his heart was warm. Mustering up courage, he casually stood up and walked over to where she was sitting.
"Hi," he whispered softly, looking down at her, a smile tugging his face he forced down.
"Hey," she replied silently, as if she didn't want to disturb the peace. She looked at him, eyes twinkling with the first ray of sunlight.
"Came to watch the sunrise?" he whispered, about to take a seat next to her.
"Ahuh... come...sit..." she ordered, voice barely above a whisper. Yet as she said these words, another breeze blew, and Sasuke found himself unable to move again. After waking up from the daydream, he casually sat down next to her, leaning on his arms for support, just like her.
There was silence. For the first time, it wasn't painful, loud, unbearable or miserable, but on the contrary it was quite refreshing and relaxing. The sun rose a little by little, dust and wind would blow every so often. Sakura seemed to be in the clouds not noticing his presence, so he took the chance to look at her. After a while he was staring. His eyes' black pools were twinkling and wavering around a little. Seemingly filled with love, hope, pride...seemingly.
"What?" Sakura laughed after a while. Sasuke still didn't notice her words. After what seemed like eternity came and went, the words registered in his brain, and he snapped out of the gaze quite forcefully.
"Huh...what?" he asked confused. Sakura's eyes filled with laughter...and finally she couldn't suppress it. She laughed. She laughed his life away. She laughed him to daydream lane again. Her laugh...so soothing...Flashback: The waterfall...so calm...Flashback: The cave so strong... He turned his attention toward the sun. It rose half way...the skies were purple pink...and there was only one cloud the left side, blocking a fraction of the sun from view.
'Perfect! This is the kind of sunrise I have been dreaming about all my life that I could use to make-out with the girl I truly love. Now's my chance!!' he thought, face still tugging at a smile.
"Anno...Sakura..." he said after a while.
"Hmmm?"
"I was wondering if I could do something?"
"Like what?" she asked curious leaning over to see what he was doing.
He turned around, lifted her chin up with his index finger and thumb, and at first gave it a small kiss. Then he deepened it after she gave in. The sun behind them seemed smiling, as the cloud drifted away, and the sun went up another inch. The pink/red sky now reminded him of something. Blood. His mission. The blue rock. His thought became pained at this, and at what he had to do. Pushing the horror like thoughts of yesterdays blue rock out of his mind, Sakura's sweet kisses took him a level higher, and right then and there, he didn't care. He wrapped his arms around her, and broke the kiss.
"Look," he said, pointing at the sun again.
"Do you see it?" the look in his eyes, confident even she could see it.
"What?"
"Over there...look deep into the sun..." he said drawing a semi-circle before them.
And there it was...a magic picture some call it. But it looked as if a tiger and an antelope were playing.
"Why do I see a very confusing picture?" she asked.
"Because in Heaven, the tiger and the antelope play, and you are about to take me there," he said, dreamily.
He kissed her again. Short and sweet.
"I'm not having sex with you on the beach if that's what you are thinking," she said laughing slightly.
"Damn," he muttered.
"What was that...?"
"Nothing...last one in the lake is a rotten egg!" he said removing his clothing. He then smiled... "How about in the water...?"
"NO!!"
