CHAPTER 4

I CANT FORGET

'Stunned ' this was the appropriate word to explain the feelings and emotions of Naruto Namikaze .He couldn't believe what was happening , his world was spinning . He had just heard that Sakura didn't love him and loved Sasuke and the next moment Sakura was hugging him !.

He felt an overwhelming emotion in his chest making his heart swell like an inflated balloon . He had a lump on his throat , he was too stunned too surprised to do anything .He didn't had the slightest clue of what he should do . He had the urge to throw her away and escape her embrace as his mind had termed her as a 'traitor.' On the contrary his heart wanted to keep on holding her like this .

His heart wanted to remain this close to her forever . A battle was going inside him , battle of love and hate .

Sakura felt tears in her eyes , she closed her eyes as her chin was present on Naruto's shoulder . She wanted nothing other than be with him . She was melting in the embrace which they were sharing . She took in his sweet smell which intoxicated her full body . She felt her breast rub against his well toned chest and shivered .

She felt his entire body bit by bit as she tightened the hug not wanting him to leave her anymore . She wanted to make out with him .To make him her's . She wanted to stay with him , have a happy life and die with him together .

She saw his enigmatic look but didn't respond , she wanted to live this moment enjoy it bit by bit . Soon she was snapped away by Naruto who looked at her directly into her eyes .

They looked into each other's eyes for some hours maybe months or years . They kept on staring into each other with love evident in their eyes . Naruto closed his eyes he was trying his best not to grab her and corner her by the wall and have his way with her .

His voice croaked due to heaviness in his throat as he spoke " Sakura …what is the meaning of this ?"

Sakura's heart was shattered by his comments but she controlled herself . She had promised that she would get him , she would not show any sign of weakness .

"Naruto …that is what I ask you as well what were you doing ?"

"What was I doing ? Sakura this is my house if you haven't forgotten ?".

"I know whose house is it …I am asking why were you hitting and beating the wall ?"

Naruto's eyes widened , he quickly searched for some sort of an excuse and said" I was training Sakura …..is that okay now leave right now ."

"I won't ."

"Sakura this is my house I order you to leave it ."

"I heard everything between you and Sasuke….I was present here so I want to ask you were jealous weren't you Naruto ?"

Naruto's eyes widened at her confession and he was bewildered that he wasn't able to sense her chakra . He had been too distracted to sense anything that's why he wasn't even able to sense Sasuke's chakra .

"Sakura why would I be jealous ? "

Sakura took a step towards him leaving no gap between them and murmured "Maybe because you love me Naruto …maybe you wanted me to be with you …"

Naruto's lump in his throat increased as he knew he was close to his breakdown . He closed his eyes not wanting tears to come out and spoke as coldly as possible " I don't love you Sakura …now go please go.."

A tear fell down Sakura's eyes . She stayed rooted to where she was , she was determined to find out why he was being distant from her . She had vowed to get him back and she would get him , she wanted his love his care and would die to get it .

"Naruto kun don't lie to me ….please don't lie to me .."

"I am not lying Sakura chan …I am not lying .."

"Then now why did you call me Sakura chan ? why do you try your best to stay away from me ?"

"I …my tongue slipped and I never try to stay away from you . I …seriously don't love you .."

More tears fell from Sakura's eyes as his words sliced him into two and an idea popped into her mind and she spoke while her voice choked

"Prove it Naruto …prove it.."

Naruto's eyes widened at what she had said and he asked " How can I prove that Sakura ."

"You can prove it by doing two things Naruto …first thing call me Sakura Uchiha …"

Naruto's eyes widened at his first task , he felt his heart crack , he couldn't speak it . This name had haunted him day and night .He didn't have the strength to say it . But he had to , to make sure that his Sakura stays happy .He wanted to fulfill his promise to Sasuke, he would say it . His voice cracked as he spoke " S-Sakura …..U-Uchiha .."

Tears build inside his eyes threatening to fall any moment , he saw Sakura bit her lips and she spoke " Now Naruto kun say while looking directly into my eyes that you don't love me that you don't desire me that you don't crave for me …if you say it I promise I won't ask this question again .."

Naruto's lungs swelled like the throat of a frog he couldn't breathe . He looked into her eyes and warmth filled his body . He couldn't stop himself and he spoke without thinking " I love you Sakura chan …I desire you …I crave for you ..I think all the time about you I cant live without you .."

Tears fell down her eyes at his confession and she pulled him for another hug . She kissed his cheeks as they hugged .Happiness flooded her , for four years she had wanted to hear that . To hear him say that he loved her and now the moment had arrived when he accepted his feelings for her.

She went towards his lips , it was going to be her first kiss and she was happy to share it with Naruto . She was centimeters away when she was pushed backwards by Naruto .

Tears fell down Naruto's eyes , he had reached his breaking point .He fell down on his knees as tears fell down from his eyes and he spoke while he was hiccoughing and breathing with immense difficulty " Why are you doing this ? Why Sakura chan ?leave me …why give me false hope every time ?".

Blood came out of Sakura's lips as she pressed it very hard .Tears fell down from her eyes and she knelt down in front of him and spoke " False hope ? you think that I am giving you false hope ? you think I am playing with you ? what do you think about me ? I …love you Naruto …I love you .."

Naruto couldn't believe what he was hearing , all his sadness was washed away by the new emotion that developed in the pit of his stomach . He couldn't believe what she was saying .

"No this cant be happening .."

"Why Naruto ? Why did you leave me why run away from me ? I ….loved you so much but you never talked to me why were you ignoring me ?"

"I …thought you loved Sasuke …I ….wait if you love me then why are you marrying Sasuke ?"

" I never agreed for the marriage I was broken …he asked me to marry him and I told him that I would tell him my answer later …Naruto please if I have done anything forgive me …I love only you and you ….make me yours Naruto .."

"I cant Sakura …I cant forget what has happened .."

Tears down Sakura's eyes all her hopes were dying . She was loosing her love . She murmured "What cant you forget?"

"I cant forget what happened 3 yrs ago Sakura chan…"

Flashback 3 yrs ago

Naruto was in a bar drinking as his friends were by his side . Team 7 8 9 all were together, they were celebrating ,Sasuke had been loosened by the Anbu . After 1 yr of case ,finally Sasuke was free.

Naruto was drinking and so were his friends .

"Sakura want to have a dance ." Sasuke asked .

"Sure Sasuke kun.." Sakura replied back .

They both went to the dance floor and started dancing ,Naruto watched them grind their bodies against each other. His stomach burned to see them so intimate .He wanted to pounce of Sasuke and kick him away from Sakura . Finally after about half an hour of grinding they stopped and came back and sat down .

Sasuke made Sakura sit on his lap as he kissed her neck and chin .He kissed her cheeks as he placed his hand on her butt gentle going upwards .

He cupped her breast and went to stroke them but Sakura stopped him and jumped away from him and ran away as she had realized what they were doing . She didn't see the tearful Naruto on the counter as she walked out of the bar.

End of flashback

Sakura's eyes filled with tears as she remembered the incident ,she had considered that Naruto was kissing her all the time and making out with her .She was so heavily drunk that she presumed Sasuke to be Naruto and that's why she allowed him to touch her like this .

She could do anything for Naruto and now as tears flooded her eyes she felt helpless , she found no way to make him stay .

"Naruto…please forget what happened I love you …please Naruto kun …I'll …do anything you want with me …I want you to be with me …I imagined that it was you who was doing it not Sasuke …"

"Sakura chan …can mind forget ? …can I forget the way he touched all your private parts ? can I really forget Sakura chan ? will you be able to forgive me if I hook up with Hinata and then come to you…"

Those words sliced her once again , she had to make him stay. Sakura moved towards him ,but was pushed away . She was sure that she would now have 8 chambered heart as she could sense her heart breaking into two parts .

The pain she was feeling was terrible , inexpressible . "Naruto …give me a chance …I will prove that I love you Naruto please give me a chance…"

Naruto got up shakily and said " Sakura I think you should go …I don't think it can be this way Sakura …I would love you forever but we cant be together looks like fate was stronger than me Sakura chan …I ..am sorry.."

Tears kept on flowing out of his eyes as he spoke his final verdict , Sakura got up and croaked out " Naruto …I promise you one thing ….I love you and I would only stay with you …I wont marry Sasuke …I wont marry anyone …I would wait for you till my life ends and then after death maybe just maybe that we could be together ….Namikaze Naruto you will and remain my life and I would never forget you …till my last breath I would love you …."

A tear trickled down her cheeks as she spoke " Maybe if you remember me then we would be together …but I would never give up my hope on you ..because if I give up my hope then I am not born to love you because Naruto never gives up and from now on I would never give up….Naruto whenever y-you are sure that you….l-love me then I ..would be willing to accept you …I …love you .."

With those words she turned away and ran out of the house away from him as fast as she could , tears blinding her as she ran ,but she didn't care about anything .She reached her house closed her door , jumped into the room and enveloped herself in the covering as she cried out Naruto's name out .

She was trying her best to make the sorrow and grief flood out but the supply was so full that it would take an eternity to release it .

Naruto fell down on the ground as soon as he was sure that she was gone , his hands trembled . He longed for her but his ego was pestering him . His mind remembered all the insults he had got from her .

He felt as if a needle was piercing his butt . He ran out of the house towards the training ground where he was sure that he would take out all his sorrow .He reached the training ground and started training , he in seconds blasted the whole training ground into pieces and went back to his house bloody and sweaty .

All his training had gone waste , the pain which he was feeling wasn't physical it was emotional and it was very acute increasing tenfold every second . He closed his eyes as he fell asleep , just before he was about to sleep he spoke "Sakura Chan ….I am sorry……"
