She still didn't understand how in the world she had gotten stuck on an island. Much less stuck with only him. He always found a way to annoy the living crap out of her. Infact, once she had even thought about biting off his fingers.

Sometimes he made her feel stupider just standing next to him. And now, not only was she stranded on a floating pile of crap. She was stranded on a floating pile of crap with him. Somehow, she knew some higher being must have been laughing his ass off somewhere. Sakura's day was just going wonderful, THANKYOU VERY MUCH!!!

A crash was heard from a place not far away and a string of curse words could be heard in a muttered tone. Sakura couldn't help it, she burst out laughing. The cursing stopped suprisingly fast afterwards.

A few small trees were bent out of the way as an inquiering blue face peeked out from the island's jungle. "What is it?" he asked, lifting a dark blue eyebrow*. "Nothing. Just laughing about how stupid you are." Sakura said folding her hands across her chest and frowning.

"Whatever Sakura-chan. Is there something you need before I go back into the God-forsaken forest here?" he asked. "No. If I need something I can get it myself." Sakura said shooing him away.

Later that night it began to rain harshly and Sakura and her companion were forced to take shelter inside a cave. Sakura was currently being encircled by the arms of her disliked companion. "I feel so stupid. I shouldn't be scared of something like this. I can fight highly trained assassins and not break a sweat, but when I hear thunder I run for cover." Sakura said quietly.

"Everyone is scared of something Sakura. It makes us human. When you lose the sense of fear, you aren't human anymore. I'm glad you fear something. If you didn't I'd be kind of worried." he said and patted her head softly.

"So you know I'm scared of thunder. What are you scared of?" Sakura asked, looking up at him expectantly. "Like I'm going to tell you that." he said and started to settle himself so he could sleep.

After five minutes of silence, Sakura decided to go to sleep aswell. Just as she was drifting off, the arm around her middle gave a slight squeeze. "Do you really want to know what I'm scared of?" he asked. Sakura didn't move. "I wish I could tell you this when you were awake." he said quietly.

Sakura stayed relaxed. He might continue if she faked sleep. "Its something I worry about everyday. There are so many ways that it could happen and I try my hardest to prevent every one of them. What scares me the most is something more inportant than my next heartbeat, my next breath. Its the fact that I might lose you. Every single day someone tries to take you away from me, but if you die, then I'll die. Because even in death I will follow you." he said quietly and finally went to sleep.

Sakura sat frozen for a while, then relaxed. Sometimes he made her feel stupid. Sometimes he made her feel mad. Sometimes he just made her cry. But sometimes, he just made her feel loved. And those were the times that Sakura lived deep down she knew she wouldn't trade that feeling for anything else.

Even if it did come from a rogue shinobi that looked like a shark.

(I sort of hope you guys kno who her companion is because I tried to hint as much as I could. Sorry if you couldn't see it.)
