I'm in Love with a Skater

Chapter 4: Back off!

Sakura's POV:

I can't believe this is happening again. Why is Zaku back? God, can't he just leave me alone?!

"Leave me alone, Zaku!" I snapped, glaring at him threw my fear.

"Now, now, Babe. Don't be going into denail."

I pushed him off and becuase of my inhuman strength, he fell to the ground. Suddenly, before I knew it, a hand was tightened around my throat, forcefully pushing me up against the wall. I was able to let out a scream, before Zaku punched me in my stomach.

Sasuke's POV:

I was just walking down the halls when I heard a loud scream come from around the corner. No doubt it was Sakura. I gathered all my strength into my feet and ran toward the scream. There I saw something that never should have happened.

Sakura was being held up against the wall by this guy, who kept punching her over and over.

I then tore the guy off Sakura and threw him into the lockers. My eyes were blazing red and I stalked toward the guy. I then punched him so hard in the stomach, it knocked the wind out of him. He began to gasp for air and hold his stomach when suddenly, Naruto, Neji, and Shikamaru appeared. They obviously went to go find me when they heard Sakura scream.

I then ran toward Sakura, who was on the ground holding her stomach and crying.

"SAKURA! Are you ok?!" I called, taking her into my arms.

No response...

Sakura's POV:

Before I blacked out, I heard Sasuke calling my name over and over. You see, the place were Zaku kicked me about 5 minutes ago...is where he kicked me 5 months ago. That wound didn't heal yet so...yeah you can say I'm in a LOT of pain right now!

"SAKURA! Are you ok?!" I heard Sasuke call one final time before I blacked out. My head dropped and I could just tell Sasuke was going into panic mood.

When I woke up, I started at a blank ceiling. I couldn't have been in the nurses office because their walls are blue, not white. I slowly sat up and saw all the medical equipment in the room. Great, I was in the hospital.

"Hn. I see you woke up." I heard a voice say. I looked to my left and my eyes widen. There was Sasuke, sitting lazily on a chair by the bed. I could see the small bags under his eyes. Wait, bags?! Did he stay up all night for me?!

"Sasuke...-kun? Did y-you stay u-up a-all night for m-me?" I stuttered, still shocked.

He smirked and walked over to sit next to me on the bed. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pressed his face onto my neck. I felt shivers go up and down my spine as he continued to breath on my neck.

"Sasu-"

"Yes."

My eyes widen again. "What?"

"I stayed up all night waiting for you, my cherry blossom." Soon enough, I felt him place light kisses on my neck. Ugh, he always can get to me.

"S-Stop." I whispered.

He looked up at me with shocked eyes. "What?! Why?!"

"..."

"Sakura, why won't you date me?" I heard him mutter. I felt my eyes burn with tears as he turned me around to face him. Our faces were only inches apart, before I looked down and the tears spilled.

"I'm afraid of getting hurt agian Sasuke." I whispered.

He took my hands into his and stroked them. Kissing them every now or then.

"I won't hurt you, Sakura."

"YES YOU WILL!" I yanked my hands away from his. "YOU WILL ALWAYS HURT ME! YOU HURT ME WHEN YOU STOPPED HANGING OUT WITH ME THOSE YEARS AGO! YOU HURT ME EVERYTIME I SEE YOU WITH MORE THAN ONE WOMAN AND YOU ARE HURTING ME NOW! YOUR A PLAYBOY SASUKE! AND YOU'LL NEVER GROW OUT OF IT!" I threw the sheets off me (ignoring the pain) and tried to run toward the door but a storng pair of arms held me back.

"LET ME GO, UCHIHA!" I cried, struggling in his grip, but that only made him tighten.

"I LOVE YOU, SAKURA!"

My whole body froze and my eyes widen. "W-What?!"

"I have loved you since we were kids! KUSO, WHY CAN'T YOU SEE THAT?!" he yelled. Slowly, he turned me around and wiped my tears that came from my eyes.

"I love you, Sakura...please...just know that." he whispered in my ear. Here comes the shivers again.

"Ai-sh-te-ru, Sasuke-kun." I said, embracing him as his arms wrapped around my waist. We stayed like that for what felt like forever, then we pulled back.

We looked into each other's eyes and slowly moved our faces together. We pulled each other into a passionate kiss. I never wanted it to end.

But sadly, dreams always come to an end.

oooooooooooo

What'cha think?! I thought it was cliche-ish but, whatever!
