Really sorry I haven't up-dated this, but I have been extraordinarily busy.

So I apologize again and again, but here chapter 3 FINALLY! :P

I'm thinking about getting a haircut soon...:P sorry for the rambling.

Anyways! TO the story we go.

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Naruto.


"Sasuke-kun?" Her childish voice reached his ears before he saw her face. She stood looking over him her big green eyes pouring into his own dark ones.

He looked around at the grassy area around him realizing he never left the training field, "Uhh..." He groaned groggily brushing dirt from the side of his face with the back of his hand.

"You could have caught a cold. It was freezing outside..." She scolded him. He let her voice warp around him, he couldn't really tell what she was talking about, he was tired and sore from laying on the ground all night.

"Hn. I don't get sick."

She looked at him for once not impressed, she lifted an eyebrow and lowered it slowly letting his words sink in. She started laughing, which he did not expect as he had stopped all his movement to stare at her entirely confused.

"Oh nothing, I just actually thought you'd say that." A smile formed while she spoke showing her white teeth making an almost valentine like contrast with her hair, "I know you too well..." She said more to the air than to either of them.

She patted him on the back while her laughter died down.

"Why aren't you at training?" He questioned her while stretching his arms as far up as they would go.

"It's Saturday, we don't have training today. You of all people should remember that." She replied in the same scolding tone she had used before.

"Right. Whatever, I forget." His bored tone rang out to her, his bored tone also didn't match his heart beat which had been accelerating each passing moment.

"I'm thinking about asking Tsunade-sama to teach me some healing, it looks pretty cool don't you think?" She asked changing the subject.

"I guess..."

"I mean I think it would be pretty cool to be able to just stick your hands out and stop all the bad injury stuff, right?" She asked again sticking her hands out pretending to heal.

"Sure..."

"Wouldn't that come in handy? I think it would, do you think so too?" She asked a similar question almost with a tone of interrogation.

"Why do you keep asking me? What? Do you want my approval?" The lightening in his eyes flashed at her though she did not flinch nor did she stray by his tone. Though he could have sworn he saw a little internal flinching through her eyes. But it was so minor...

"Yes." She answered him like it was obvious, her tone ringing with need to be acknowledged.

"Fine. It's a good idea." He spat out the words in a hurry hating the way it made him feel so weak. But what was he doing being mean to her anyways? What was the point of this chance if he just screwed it up again? Maybe he could lighten his tone a little bit.

"Hmm, but I don't know if I'd be good at it." She muttered.

"So? You practise." He replied although she hadn't asked a question.

"I guess, I think you have to have chakra control. I have that right?"

"How would I know?" He replied her question with a question almost obnoxiously.

"You train with me." She said bluntly putting the point out there.

"Yea, but it's not like I watch you." He said just as bluntly as she had previously. It wasn't true.

The sentence struck her more than he had meant to. He just realized painfully that saying that had almost been a kick to her stomach reminding her that she thought he didn't notice her at all.

He had just remained her of almost all of the painful things she kept hidden. Great, he couldn't handle a crying girl. He looked up hesitantly to find dry eyes, not even dry... they were blank.

"Yeah, your right."

Silence closed in on him, he did not have any replies to that; nor did he expect it. She didn't look at him, she looked past him hoping him to notice that she didn't meet his eyes.

He studied her face more closely realizing quickly that her face wasn't blank, it was angry. It was an emotion un-common on her features but it showed up shockingly bold.

She sighed seeming tired, "Sasuke-kun, I think one day you might regret being so cold to everyone. But what would I know right? I might be wrong..." She spoke softly, almost sweetly but her voice was tired and strained. She hated her words and he could tell. She hated the fact she had to say them, and he could tell. For a second her un-dying love was not resident in her eyes.

Silence continued for him, he did not have any reply. She was right though, he had come to a day where he would regret it and what did he do? Start over? It wasn't as easy as it looked on paper. Maybe just maybe they could forgive him for everything, but the chances of him asking to be forgiven were slim...actually they were slim to none.

He watched her walk away stiff and angry and sad and just so many other things...kami that looked like too many emotions for one person. He had to make some drastic changes, but for once the one and only Sasuke Uchiha was out of plans.

Days went by and months past the same way they always did, he trained with them and ate with them acting the same way he always did. He never apologized to Sakura, and she never brought it up again. She treated him like she always did. Like royalty.

He needed to do something, something to change his life for the better. He needed a way to make them realize that he was sorry, but what?


Ok, another chapter up!

Tell me what you think, reviews reviews reviews!

Anyways, have a good day !!
