Shattered
"Yesterday I died, Tomorrows bleeding. .
I've fallen to your sunlight." Trading Yesterday
"Kakashi!" The grey haired man looked up from his orange romance book. I walked up to his desk with a sly smile.
"So I got you a present!" He narrowed his eye's, "Whats the catch?" I smiled,
"Nothing yet. Just know that if I ask you something you better say yes." I handed him the book, his expression was priceless.
"Where the hell did you get this? This is hard to find in Japan!" It was a copy of the famous romance novel "The Notebook"
"Well I've had it for some time, back when I was learning english." He nodded and instantly began reading, "You know I never asked you. Why do you like romance novels so much? I never remembered you to be a romantic a couple years ago? Or else you'd be married by now." I giggled, then I gasped.
"No! Your not-"
"I'm not Sakura." Kakashi said firmly, I sighed out of relief.
I stared intently at him until he finally looked up, "What?" I rolled my eyes, "Come on answer my question."
He sighed out loud, "Its a long story." I glared out of annoyance. "I have time. Just tell me!" He sighed once again.
"Well first off, your right. I never liked this stuff before, you could say I hated it like any normal teenage boy."
There was a silence, I waited for him to continue
"But you know what sucks?"
"What?"
He smirked and set his book down, "Realizing that everything you once believe in is complete and utter bullshit."
I smiled painfully, "I can relate."
"When I was 18 I fell in love. A love I never felt before, one that actually meant the whole world to me."
He looked down, "But I broke her heart."
"I guess you can say that my biggest mistake was when I thought I wasn't good enough for her. When I thought she deserved so much better. I guess I loved her too much. But now that I think about it all I ever did was run away."
He smirked, "In the end, we just regret the chances we didn't take." He shook his head,
"We met up for the last time and she gave me a book. She said if I truly loved her I'd read it."
I smiled, "Thank you." I stood up and dropped a bag on his desk and walked away.
I walked out the courtyard completely exhausted, Kakashi's story kept me thinking about that dumb ass.
I sighed, "Well I guess I'll go out today."
I was shoved and I fell to the ground, I looked up and glared. It was Sasuke, "What the hell is wrong with you?"
I stood back up and brushed myself off, "Sorry." I glared and held my hand out.
He looked at me oddly, "Compensation!" I said annoyed. He rolled his eyes and digged through his pockets, "Wait! Even better! Accompany me today." He raised his eyebrow, "Ask Naruto, I'm sure he'd love to hold your bags with a smile on his face."
I shoved my bag towards him, "Shut up servant!" He sighed.
"You gotta be kidding me."
"You know, when you meant 'accompany you' I thought you meant shopping like any other normal girl." I rolled my eyes,
"I need food to survive don't I?" We walked through the huge crowds towards the neighborhood.
"Your like an old housewife or something." I smirked, "This is the most I ever heard you talk servant."
"Hn." I smiled, "Too late for that buddy." He growled and looked away.
Things happened so suddenly, It was like in a flash we became the center of attention. Not in a good way I might add.
In a blink of an eye I saw Sai clenching Sasuke's shirt.
"Sai?"
"Why the hell are you with her?" He growled, I stayed silent. 'What?'
Sasuke smirked, "What's it to you? You never had an interest in my affairs before Sai."
Sai glared intently, I-I've never seen him like this. I'm almost...scared.
I stepped back, Sai glanced at me and roughly let Sasuke go.
He grabbed my hand and pulled me away through the thick crowds of people.
My mind was too busy trying to process everything that happened that I allowed him to pull me. I was scared. Who was this person?
We were in an alley not too far from the crowd but enough to be alone.
I narrowed my eye's and snatched my hand from him. "What the hell is wrong with you!"
"I can't believe you'd pick him. Anybody but him."
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you actually gave a shit about me" I said sarcastically. I shook my head, "I'm not playing this shit. My feelings aren't a game."
He grabbed my hand, "I thought we'd always be happy." I turned back and looked him in the eye's, "But we aren't..." I whispered.
I slipped my hand from his and walked my own direction.
Sasuke POV
'I should've just ran after them. That bastard.' I rang the doorbell, she bought so much food she couldn't be living alone.
The door opened, I raised my eyebrow.
"Ah Sasuke-kun! How did you know where I lived?" I raised up the grocery's, I didn't know what to say.
"Sakura's not with you?" I shook my head, "Uh, she-"
He waved his hand, "Don't worry about it, but help me put these in the kitchen."
"Don't you think its weird? A teacher living with his student?" I glanced at him, "I don't think so." He replied honestly.
"Well of course you don't, she's your girlfriend." Kakashi dropped the lemons and burst out laughing, "You gotta be kidding me!"
I was confused? My face lit up.
"Sakura gave you that idea didn't she?" He continued to laugh, "Well then what's your relationship!" He looked back at me and shrugged, "You don't know? You could be leading her on!"
Kakashi scratched his head, "Well we have a weird relationship. Ask Sakura."
I grew annoyed by this man and stormed out.
Next day
Sai POV
'Where the hell is she? She's probably with Kakashi.' I walked towards the homeroom and walked inside, he was alone reading some book.
"Oh, hello." He greeted, I looked around and sighed, "Sorry." I was about to turn and walk away,
"Hey close the door and have a seat for a moment." I raised an eyebrow and silently did as told. I used my smile, "Would you like to talk about something sensei?"
He sat down his book and there was silence, what did he want?
"Your looking for Sakura right?" I continued smiling,
'Ah, so thats it.'
"You know, your going about this all wrong." I tilted my head, "What do you mean?"
He smirked, "You know playing the bad guy isn't going to get you anywhere Sai. I know what your trying to do."
I didn't know how to respond to that. I dropped the smile and remained emotionless, "Oh? Shouldn't you be saying I'm not good for her instead of advice?"
"I think your horrible for her. But I can't make that decision." I laughed, "Well, I'm sure she's already made her decision a long time ago."
He sighed, "I wish she was over it. Over you. But shes still in love with you." I narrowed my eyes, "Why are you budding in? This has nothing to do with you."
He leaned against the palm of his hand, "Sakura has everything to do with me. I watched her go through way too much shit for a seventeen year old."
I sighed, "You were right." He looked up, "About?" He asked.
"Back then when you said about me not being good for her, about how I'd end up eventually hurting her, that I'd break her heart." I felt something go through me. I put a hand to my face and rubbed my temples.
"Then why are you still holding on?"
I laughed hopelessly, "Why am I still holding on? Simple. Because I still have hope. I don't want to think she doesn't care anymore. I hate the thought of her ever forgetting me. It's the only thing that keeps me going. The only thing that gives me hope."
What the hell was I doing? What I did next I thought I'd never say.
"Please don't take that away from me. Its the only thing that makes me feel okay." There was a silence, I quickly stood and left the room.
I'm starting to feel sad for Sai. Poor him. Even though what he's doing is really stupid.
For some who Didn't understand the convo with Kakashi and Sai. Basically Sai doesn't want Sakura to forget about him.
Okay you guys, I have NO IDEA WHO THE HELL will be Sakura's man. Like I'm confused. You guys should vote on it. It seems like in the beginning it was SakuNaru , then it went to SakuNaruSasu somewhat, then again SakuSasu then a bit of SakuKaka and NOW SakuSai or SakuSaiSasu. SO FUCKING CONFUSING. Vote, Vote, Vote!
