"Sakura. It has been way to long since I updated, and I don't know what to write. TT "

Hah! Oke, he didn't say that. :3

But seriously, I want to apologise so bad. So bad, in fact, that I'm not going to. Why you ask? Well, simply cause the words I'm sooooouooooo sorry! Doesn't even begin to describe how sorry I am, A-AAND secondly, cause you probably forgot about this fic months ago, and my attempt at a comeback will most probably go down the drain.

So there you have it! My official apology :3

Itachi: Didn't you just say you weren't going to apologise?

Bog: WHAA! Jeez, where did you come from? -tries to change the subject-

Itachi: Reads thinking line above I can read, you know.

Bog: Oh, then you probably missed the part where I excluded you from my fic.

Itachi: -Ignores comment- Anyway, isn't this you second comeback?

Bog: l

Itachi: Well, when you thi-

Bog: Shut up.

Itachi: -/\- -nk about it, this i-

Bog: -death galre- SHUT.UP.

Itachi: -whispers- you misspelled glare: x

His mouth slowly opened. Sakura tensioned. Was he going to charge, or speak? It turned out to be, to Sakura's dismay, the latter.

"Sakura."

Her breathing was shallow. She was looking into his eyes. His voice sounded so confident. In reality, he was anything but.

His eyes craving for her, his body was screaming for hers, his mouth aching for her warm, inviting lips. But he had to restrain himself. If not for himself, then for her.

Sakura.

She had been through so much over the past few years.

Did she really want this? Did she think it was going to fast? What if she didn't want this, but was afraid to say so?

Sasuke's mind wandered. What if she felt she had to do this, repay him for saving her life?

His aura darkened. He was not like that.

What if this was what the lord made her do?

Whoa, wait; was she even a virgin?

The dark, red flame of anger inside Sasuke had found its fuel. Sakura's smile faded, her look of happiness faded as well. Her fingers reached up to his face, and they lingered at his lips. So close. He was so close. Sasuke stared at her.

What was he doing? Always over analysing everything and making assumptions.

"Yes?" she replied uncertain.

Her fingers still at his lips, but her eyes were on his neck, she didn't dare to meet his eyes, for they were so powerful. Uchiha eyes. None of the spoke. Sasuke was staring at her mouth, his body was still tense while on top of hers. Sasuke's thoughts darkened his mind the further they got.

Sakura gasped at what she saw.

It. The mark.

Black shapes were slowly dancing across his neck and expanding as they clashed with each other. She has seen this before. "Sasuke!" The name came out of her without thinking. Whatever it was Sasuke was thinking about, it disappeared at the sound of her voice. His eyes shot up to hers.

Sakura got even more scared when she met sharingan eyes. She quickly turned her gaze to his neck again. Sasuke saw the regret in her eyes, along with fear, as he had realized what happened.

He quickly got off the bed, to better regain control over his body. He was staring desperately at the floor, and panting ever so lightly, while the dark marks were slowly retreating.

"I'm going for a walk." He bluntly said without looking at her.

"Sasuke.." Sakura whispered at him as his back disappeared out of sight.

"..Don't leave me."

She could feel the tears wanting to come out. What just happened? But Sakura new.She new painfully well.

"He's mad at me because I didn't fight them. He's mad at me because I'm weak. And he doesn't want a weak woman!"

She pulled the covers around herself. She didn't want to cry. Why did she always cry? Sakura looked around the room, trying to think of something else. Anything else. Her eyes stopped at a picture.

A picture she new so well. Three -more or less- smiling kids, and a man whose face one could not tell, because of a black mask, but his eyes were smiling. How did it come to this?

"How did it come to this!?" She jumped out of the bed and grabbed the picture while closing her eyes. Wanting desperately to go back to that time, to hear the birds that day, to smell the grass that she had paid no attention to. Why did he leave me again?

Why is this happening?

What did I do?

--

"What happened?"Sasuke whispered.

He was surrounded by trees. Deep in some forest somewhere. His eyes were on the ants walking around on the ground, but his mind couldn't be further away.

She had looked at him with fear. She was afraid.

Of him. Afraid of his power.

The power he wanted to protect her with. Sasuke wasn't an idiot. He knew that Sakura had been in love with him at the academy.

And now, as he finally admitted his feelings towards her to himself, she was afraid.

Sasuke ran both his hands through his hair in confusion, but it was frustration that left them there.

Did she think he would loose control and force himself on her? He wasn't like that.

"I'm not like that!" He shouted and his fist connected with a tree.

Seconds later, the sun was shining in Sasuke's face. He didn't look away, not until his hand was screaming for his attention. He looked down.

Blood. He had gone overboard again. Like the many times while practising with Orochimaru. Surviving was a better word. But the sun persuaded his face up towards the sky once more. He thought of when he had saved her, Sakura was crying back then.

How many times had she cried since he left? The girl that would rightfully become his one day. He had known this ever since the day they announced the teams. She would grow up to be a smart and beautiful woman. His woman.

A little smile forced its way across his lips. A scenario was running through his mind. Like it had done a thousand times before, on many a lonely days.

What would she have done, had he told her straight to her face that one day, one perfectly sunny day, she would become an Uchiha. He looked at his bleeding hand again.

"Tch."

He had better get home. And apologise to his scared Sakura.

Sasuke, apologise. Hah!

Behind him the sky was full of birds who had nowhere to land due to the sudden lack of treetops.
