Okaaaaaayyyyyy sorry it took so long to update ' this chappie might be shorter...my computer is acting up again whacks computer
" Hnn……what time is it?" Sakura rubbed her eyes, and stretched. She looked around. " Had a good sleep?" Her heart skipped a beat as she looked in the corner of the room. Sitting on the chair eating a tomato, was Sasuke Uchiha.
" Holy Skittles! What the hell are you doing in my bathroom?! Get out!!"
" Hn…. That's all you can say? It's been 47 minuets and 39 seconds that you've been in that shower. Won't you thank me for not waking you up?"
The alcohol had worn off and she was fully aware of the situation. " No I won't thank you. I wouldn't have cared if you woke me up anyway, now get out of bathroom Uchiha ." Her harsh words surprised him a bit. But he didn't show it. The only expression he held was the same as always: stoic.
" Hmph….I expected her to jump out of the shower and start hugging me. I guess she's not the same love-stuck twelve year old eh? I kinda miss those day's." He got up and walked out of the bathroom, leaving her to her business.
She wrapped the towel around her body. It was so warm and fuzzy. She still liked those things. A smile was placed upon her lips, but only lasted for a second. It felt weird smiling sometimes, like it was foreign to her. She thought those muscles no longer worked. " heh…I… guess they still do."
She entered her room only to see Sasuke sitting on her bed. " Hey, didn't I say for you to go home?!" " No, you said 'get out.' Look, you need to stop this childish behavior it's not like you Sakura. So stop moping around and pull yourself together. That rude language doesn't fit you either."
Sakura was shocked by his words. She started to get angry. " WELL EXCUSE ME, who gave you the right to come in my house and start yelling at me, what're you my mother?!" " Did I say I was? No. All I want is the old Sakura back. I came for her, not for….this."
" So you're saying you want the old weak Sakura. The one who always had to watch her teammates do all the work? Well too bad, you won't be getting her back any sooner!" " Why not?"
" Because I chose to change. After you left, I felt the need for power. I was just like you. I knew I could never be more important then your revenge, but I wanted to change anyway. I wanted to be stronger so that one day…..one day…." Her eyes became blurry. It was the tears that started forming threatening to spill. She felt the need to let everything out. But it made her feel weak, and she didn't like that. She had to admit that she didn't like what she became, but it was the only way to make Sasuke notice her. At least that's what she thought.
" …and then maybe one day….you would…." "..would…?" " MAYBE ONE DAY YOU'D NOTICE ME! THEN I COULD MAKE YOU HAPPY! BUT NOW THAT I'M LIKE THIS, THEIRS NO WAY I CAN EVER DO THAT IS THERE?!"
He just sat on her bed an watched her break. The wet ends of her hair clung to her face and silky white night gown. He wanted to tell her how much she did mean to him back then. But seeing the current situation, he knew it would make her more upset.
" Well Sakura, I'm here now. Now you can make me happy right?" " Yes!! I do, but things have changed so much! I didn't expect my parents to die, and I…..!" Every though and emotion she surpressed over the years were all screaming to be set free. She wanted to cry. " You what?"
" I certainly didn't expect you to come back for me! I mean, I'm totally different. I know I've changed, and I don't like it. Hearing that you don't like either…it…well.I guess I just can't make you happy after all. I want to change! Believe me, I"d do anything to change for you! But as much as I want to …I….I…." " …'don't know how'…" he finished . She nodded her head and bit back a sob. She stared at the wooden floor, whose patterns she seemed to have memorized.
He got up and hugged her gently. " Then let me show you, Sakura." Those few words meant the world to her. She couldn't help but look up at him and smile. This caught him off guard, and their was no hiding his shocked expression. " she…smiled!..I'm glad Sakura." He just smiled at her.
For once it felt alright smiling. It didn't feel wrong or awkward. After her parents death, she felt like she shouldn't be happy, she thought she didn't deserve it. It was as if Sasuke read her mind, and knew what she was thinking. "Don't worry….they want you to be happy. And so does Kakashi, Naruto, and Tsunade. Even me, Sakura." he smiled at her: a true smile.
She released a little giggle. " What?" She started laughing even harder, trying to stop it from progressing. It was a genuine laugh. One he and everyone else hadn't heard in years. It made him smile, which was also very rare. " Haaahahahaha Ahaaaahahah!…ohh!!….Hashanah..oh my gosh…oh..s…sorry..it's just that…I never though..you were so mushy inside! It's so cute!" They stayed their and hugged for a while.
" Thank you Sasuke-kun. You've made me feel real again, I missed that feeling." " Well I'm glad I brought it back!" He hugged her even tighter. " I've missed that laugh of yours, and that smile which would always drive me crazy." They both smiled at each other and fell on the bed. She closed her eyes and fell asleep with a smile, and a single tear was left trailing down her left cheek. Sasuke took his sleeve and wiped away.
" Good night Sakura, sweet dreams!"
