Comfort
He stood there scanning over her for a little while, she was still wearing the long t shirt, nothing on here feet, her hair was soaked and most of her clothes were too.
"Please, I have no where else to go," she said looking up to him, he still needed convincing but he was beginning to ponder the idea of letting her in but he still wanted to press for a little more information.
So he just stood there arms crossed a stoned expression on his face looking like it was never going to change, but on occasion she had seen the small hints of happiness still in his eyes.
"Please Sasuke, I know it's much to ask but" she gave a loud sigh, "Shikamaru's cheating on me with Ino" she said gritting her teeth when she came to mention there names.
She wasn't over the fact that they were together, and the fact that she caught them and they weren't even trying to hide it.
Sasuke peered down to the wedding dress in her grip; "it's about time I had an explanation for where everyone was yesterday" he turned around leaving her standing outside his house.
He was nearing the end of the hall and still she hadn't taken the hint to come inside, she could be so dense sometimes.
"Come in Sakura" he said with a sigh as he stood at the door at the end of the hallway now.
"Right" she said waking up from the sort of trance state she was just in and entered the Uchiha estate.
She clicked the door back into place and just stood there for a while leaning on the door, until she felt a comforting hand on her shoulder.
She turned up to look at him, and once again the flood gates opened the whole weight of yesterday was leaving her as she rested her head on his shoulder, at the comfort of the person she would least think of coming to.
He stood there as if he knew her to well that all of this was going to happen.
He placed a hand behind her head as if to comfort her further, she just was leaning on his shoulder after all, it wasn't the most comforting of gestures considering what she had already been through.
The tears trickled down her face staining the navy blue t shirt he was wearing, she would have stopped herself sooner but it was the finally a place she felt safe enough to cry, her home wasn't safe and of course Ino's would never feel safe again, but his shoulder was the safest she had.
In the presence of the Uchiha that was said to have no emotion, it seemed like he did now a days, and now he seemed to be a little more sympathetic.
if she was still a child he would never let her cry on his shoulder, the years that they had been apart must have been a good thing in some respects seeing as he grew to be a little more human in the time where they haven't seen each other.
After about half an hour of crying on his shoulder she found herself stable enough to talk to him again for at least a little while.
She raised her head from where it had been resting, and looked up at his onyx eyes. They were staring out to space for a while before the fixed down on her.
"Are you ok now?" he called in a soft voice that was so unlike him. She gave a small nod before standing up straight in front of him, her eyes were red and puffy her hair was a mess so honestly she couldn't have looked worse and it was only the day after she got married.
He gave a small cough and she turned too looked at him, "you can use the shower" she asked.
He pointed to a large wooden door that must lead into the bathroom. She gave a small bow and made her way over to the door, she turned back round before she was going to go in.
His head was looking down on the floor, and then he gave a turn to the opposite direction from her.
"Thank you "she said in a small voice before disappearing behind the door, he looked up to see the door back in place were it was earlier and no sign of her.
"Your welcome" he said as If she was still standing there and gave a small smile before he disappeared behind another door.
He was in the large room that he usually sat in. A large blue sofa in the corner of the room looked appealing.
The though was going round his head, was he getting soft, he let her in after really no explanation of why she was upset, he'd let her use his shower.
He was getting soft, he remembered a time where he wouldn't even like her two foot of the estate and now he was letting her in for social visits and to use his shower, it was so unlike him.
He flopped down onto the sofa his hands placed on his head, when had he changed from the boy who liked no one near him. A loner and proud of it, it was so confusing.
His house was neat, as she always expected it to be, nothing out of place no dust in site, even though it didn't look like any of this part of the house had been used since before his family had passed away.
There were a lot of dark colours in his house, which was surprisingly warm and cosy, from the bright greens and pinks she was used to seeing everyday.
There was a large mahogany set of stairs going up the middle of the dark blue hall the second one she had come across in his estate.
Her small fingers graced the top of the shining staircase, for some reason she felt royal. She had never been around places so elegant, she was used to simple little houses like she had grown up In and had gone on to buy another small house, but this was like out of a book.
Sakura reached the top and looked over the hall; there was a crystal chandelier in the middle of the room. Small glints of sunlight bounced off the curved surfaces sending reflections across the room, it was simply put beautiful.
The bathroom or what looked like the bathroom was approaching fast, and soon enough Sakura found herself standing in front of it.
Again it was pristinely white and clean, it still looked like it hadn't been used in years, yet she found there were a few bottles of shampoo and conditioner on the shower tray.
She pushed the mahogany door closed and placed the dress down in the sink, she still had it through everything that had happened recently.
Sakura flicked on the hot water, and the steamed filled the room, hopefully this would wash some of her troubles away.
He laid there for half an hour eyes closed, head was spinning with millions of thoughts all at once. Then the annoying ringing of the door bell made him sit up, had the whole world found out about his one good dead and now they were all going to see if they could take advantage of the rare occasion.
He sat there for a little while hoping that who ever it could be would leave him alone. This would never work and he knew it, he raised his weary body from the sofa and walked through the neatly decorated Uchiha mansion.
By the time he found himself at the front door, he was becoming extremely irritated with the door bell and was considering on taking it away completely.
Sasuke opened the door to see his sensei, there sensei standing there orange book in hand, but he was no longer in his ninja outfit he wore a very smart looking suit and of course still a mask on his face.
There could only be one reason why he was dressed up in such a formal and up together manor. He was present for her wedding.
"Yo!" he said razing his head from his book and moved a hand up waving as a simple gesture.
Sasuke's face still remained stoic no emotion at all he just stood in his door way, one hand on the lock and the other pressed on the door frame. No body could usually be this rude to there sensei but it seemed as if it began to grow on him.
"Is there anything you need? Its not one more of your social visits is it?" the memory of his last social visit made him shiver; it was when he found out about Sakura's wedding.
He hadn't been home long but Kakashi seemed to think it was his duty to tell him all the gossip most he didn't want to know about but rarely there was a little bit of information that it was worth knowing.
But last time he'd just happened to revel to him a page or two of the little orange book and the ideas and pictures seemed to stick in his head. It wasn't the best of talks he had ever had with there sensei.
For a moment Kakashi just stood there observing Sasuke's state, he was almost in a deep daydream. His expression not changing he was just completely still.
"Sasuke," Kakashi said as he stared at the side of the Uchiha's head. He repeated it before a loud "SASUKE UCHIHA" finally woke him from his day dream.
He looked a bit bewildered for a moment before he found his composure again. "What did you say sensei?" he asked almost as if he was still in the dream land.
"Never mind about that" he said as his normally laid back expression turned serious.
"Do you know where Sakura is?" he said his face close to Sasuke's so he could look straight into his eyes.
He was dead serious and Sasuke could tell that even if he wasn't so close. Sakura was like Kakashi's own daughter he looked out for her he would look after her when she was sick or upset;
He was always her shoulder to cry on. But for some reason I didn't want to tell him were she was, she had come to me instead of him, she'd chose me first. In a way I felt slightly proud of the fact.
It wasn't like me to let her be the shoulder for her to cry on but somehow I felt like I wanted her to cry on my shoulder for a change.
I wanted to be her comfort only if it was for a few hours, so I let my mental battle fall and I stared back hard into those eye's one of them was an Uchiha's and answered his question.
"No, I haven't. Isn't she supposed to be getting married to that jerk" I said folding my arms in front of him. Kakashi gave out an aspirated sigh and looked back up to me again.
"If you see her tell her that I'm looking for her, everyone is" he said as he turned slowly away from me and down the steps away from the Uchiha manor.
Sasuke turned and laid his head flat against the door, he knew how hard it was to keep a secret away from his sensei, and this one big one.
I deep sigh escaped from his lip's it just hadn't been his day. Sasuke was about to step right back into the main room when he herd the sound of feet walking past his landing.
She was out of the shower "Sasuke" there was a yell from up the stairs Sasuke sighed and walked over to the banister "what!" he yelled, the fact that he had been alone just occurred to him.
How mean was he being, he looked down at the carpeted floor. "I'm sorry…" he said as he looked up from the floor, she stood there his robe close around her.
Her pink hair sticking to her face, for some reason she loved different more womanly. It couldn't be Sakura but her hair wasn't something that anyone else in the village had.
His mouth seemed to feel really dry all of a sudden, he couldn't even move, something was wrong with him and he didn't know what.
She looked down on him, the robe she found close to her the belt wrapped neatly around her petite waist. What was he staring Sakura thought, it wasn't like he had never seen her like this before, or had he?
She pondered this thought as he continued to look up at her. Somehow she felt different, him staring at her; it wasn't like when Shikamaru used to do it, was different very different.
"Um… I'm going to bed" Sakura said uncomfortably, as she was about to move to the other doors when, he called out again. "Sakura" he said softer.
She turned and looked down on him. He was slowly walking up the stair's, directly towards her.
He was a mere few feet from her, staring straight into her eyes as he took each step.
He just seemed dazed as he walked closer and closer to her, soon he was standing right in front of her, towering over her seeing as he was much taller than her.
He brushed a small strand of hair away from her face. This was the first ever gesture he ever did affectionately towards her. Was this really Sasuke?
He wasn't one to be easily mistaken though, his good looks and distant personality wasn't like any others.
But right at that moment you wouldn't have guessed he was a distant person, he was so close and smirking.
Sakura stood there his arm over her the top of her head, if she wanted to look into his eye's she would have to look directly up, but for now she was just staring at his chest.
She closed her eye's, was this all happening to fast that she shouldn't even be thinking about standing there with him so close to her. Sakura felt a pair of well muscled arms wrap around her waist.
She quickly opened her eyes to see the same chest were she was looking earlier. Looking up she saw him staring directly down on her.
His dark brown eyes staring into her own green ones, he pulled her close to her and there lips met.
Sakura stood shocked, what was going on? What was happening? All these questions and more streamed there way inter her head as she, just stood still while he kissed her gently.
Sakura shyly kissed back feeling the need to be comforted or be held by anyone, but it just happened to be in the arms of her former crush.
She suddenly felt a ping at her heart strings, was this really what she wanted, did she want him? Sasuke. She had giving up on him years ago but it all the emotions of then slowly flooded back, as if it was water being let out from a damn.
There was a hint of guilt, was this something thing that she could do right away? Move on?
She pulled back from him, snapping her eyes open. "I can't" she said her cheek pressed against his. Her voice just a breathily whisper.
He looked at her shocked, while she unhooked his hands from her waist. Then she looked at him and didn't say a word, her large green eyes said enough.
She dropped her head and walked away from him, leaving him standing in the middle of the Uchiha estate alone. Again.
