Author's Note: Bleh. I have no idea what to write here… I LOVE ITACHI! Now there's a quality author's note ;)
Chapter Four: "Playing Games"
They ran through the woods as fast as lightning making swift movements.
"Uchiha! Where are we going?" Sakura questioned him as he went off track.
"I need to see someone." He said effortlessly and they slowly stopped by a miniature cottage on an edge of a petite town. He knocked on the door and woman slightly shorter than Sakura who had bright
blue eyes and wavy mocha brown hair jumped into his arms after opening the door.
"Uchih-samaaa! Your back!" she smiled and he smirked at "sama". She then looked at Sakura as she got out of his arms.
"Who is she?" she asked curiously.
"She is Kisame's replacement." He replied not looking at Sakura.
"Nice to meet you." Sakura smiled gently and the woman hugged Sakura.
"My name is Rei! You're my new friend!" she squealed. Even though this woman was older than Sakura by a few years she acted as a younger sister but it still made Sakura question his preferences.
"Rei. We are spending the night."
"Oh good! Sakura we can have like a sleepover! We can do each other's hair and nails! I'll go make dinner and you guys go get comfortable!" she squealed.
She pulled Sakura inside and Itachi followed after. Inside were a living room, kitchen, and a bathroom. There was stairs going up to what would be the bedrooms. Itachi brought her upstairs and showed her
to Rei's room. He then went to the room next to it and closed the door behind him. Sakura closed the door behind her and she dropped down on to the floor. Before they where about to leave Itachi pushed
her down on the bed and ran his hands every bit of her body. She could still feel his finger tips against her skin. When she asked him again what she was to him, he said he did not need to explain himself.
"Sakura? Itachi? Dinner time!" she then heard a door open and Itachi slip out. Sakura got up but Itachi opened the door before she could turn it. He looked down at her.
"Do you have a problem, Uchiha?" she glared back. His poker face slowly turned into a smirk and he grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the room. He held her face up to look in the direction of his face
and he kissed her forehead and unconfined his grasp. He then disappeared down the stairs. Damn Uchiha… she mouthed the words. She walked down the stairs and sat at the table. Rei was being fed by
Itachi by chopsticks. Sakura silently ate her food and she did not look up. Ten minutes had pass and Sakura completed and Rei dragged her up the flight of stairs.
"What should we do first? Let's do our nails first!" They took turns painting each others nails. They did each other's hair and told silly stories. Eventually they where tired out and they passed out on the bed
together.
The next morning Sakura sat up and stretched out. Rei was still asleep and she crept out of the room. Her hair was still in a perfect braided bun. She walked down stairs and she sat down on the couch. Itachi suddenly put his hands on her shoulders and she looked automatically up. He smirked slightly.
"We are leaving." He told her and she is nodded.
"What about Rei?"
"She already knows."
They left the small cottage and they ran some additional miles for the rest of the day. They finally found the village and it was night. They walked down the dark alleyways. Suddenly Sakura pushed Itachi against the wall. Itachi smirked down at her playful motion. She took his face and she placed her lips on his and they made out. She suddenly stopped and rose on her tip of her toes and whispered into his ear.
"Uchiha, Don't play games with my feelings." She turned away from him. He stood there with his eyes opened wide. For once in Uchiha Itachi's life, he was shocked.
"Come on, let's go." Sakura at last said, she was not looking at him.
"Hn."
"Okay, who is getting assignation?" she asked casually.
"Furata Koji."
"Oh ok."
"LADY TSUNADE! LADY TSUNADE! WE HAVE A REPORT FROM RAIKAGE!" a ninja ran into her office.
"What is it?" Tsunade yawned.
"Haruno Sakura and Uchiha Itachi have been reported killing a ninja, Furata Koji!" the ninja yelled. Tsunade suddenly stood up and threw her hands down on the desk.
"WHAT!" she yelled. That's my girl… Tsunade thought.
"It's correct Lady Tsunade!" another ninja came in.
"Spread this to the villagers. Haruno Sakura is no longer welcomed here. I can't accept as true that she would lie to me!" Tsunade dismissed her.
Tsunade sat down at her desk and sighed. It would take a lot to be able to have Sakura and Itachi reaccepted into the village. Suddenly Naruto busted into the door.
"IS IT TRUE, GRANNY TSUNADE!" he yelled.
Tsunade slowly looked up and opened her eyes.
"Yes."
"I'm leaving now and I'm bringing her back! There is no way she would do this on her will." He announced and left.
Oh dear…
Naruto ran outside. "The group" was there and the story has spread fast. They knew what they wanted to do. They all nodded there heads and they headed out.
"So how did it go?" Konan asked when they got back.
"I got him good and Itachi helped some." Sakura grinned.
"That's amazing!"
The truth was, Sakura could not do it. She was about to end his life as he slept and she saw him slowly wake up and look into her eyes with fear. But he looked so much like Naruto that she couldn't do it. Itachi grabbed her away from him and the man was fully awake.
"I can't do it." She said.
"I know. Close your eyes if you don't want to watch." She dropped to the ground and sat. she looked down. There was a slight cry and then it died quickly. Itachi came over and reached out to her to have her stand up. She took his hand and stood up. Itachi had no trace of blood on him but the dead man of the ground was cover in blood. Koji had dark blonde spiky hair and light blue eyes.
"He looks like Naruto."
"And that's why I knew you could not do it."
Itachi kissed her cheek, "Don't take all the credit, baby."
"Happiest I seen you Itachi, but seriously get a room!" Deidara came into the living room. Tobi came hopping in after Deidara and was all over Sakura asking a million questions.
"Aye! Get off my niece!" Nagato came into the room. Tobi instantly moved to the couch. Nagato gave Sakura a hug.
"Good job."
Sakura nodded.
Eventually it was night time. Sakura towelled dried her hair and got dressed and then exited the bathroom and hopped on the bed where Itachi sat. the fireplace was on again. Something she missed from the last past days. He slowly glanced at her.
"What are you thinking about?" he asked smoothly.
"Why do you want to know?"
"You told me to 'stop playing with your feelings.'" He told her. He suddenly pinned her down on the bed and activated the sharingan and looked directly into her eyes. Sakura was fearless at this instant.
"You won't." she told him.
"How would you know?" he glared.
"You would of done it a long time ago if you where going too." He smirked at what she was saying and he deactivated the sharingan and got off of her.
"I'm going to asleep." Sakura said and crawled under the sheets and turned on her side, facing the wall. She was worn out and she fell asleep in minutes. Itachi looked at her long silky hair and he could not help but to touch it. She breathed softly and she tossed and turned slightly. He got up and turned off the light and went into the bed and went to asleep.
