Decided to post this a day earlier! Teehee!
Glad you guys liked the twist, though I could tell that some of you were confused. Let me state now. Sakura is not dead. He simply knocked her out. Why? Well, unfortunately you cannot know his motives till the next chapter because this chapter is in Sakura's POV. Not that exciting right? Well, it's not that bad I guess. Eh..you have to read to find out. Also, cluelessninja65 stated in their review wondering what Sasuke's POV was like in Chapter 7. Well, that got me thinking and maybe i'll have a bonus chapter at the end of the story. It'll be Sasuke's POV of Chapter 7! It's kind of exciting and i've already gotten started on it. Okay, i've said enough. Go on and read now.
Lotsa Luv,
Anna

Review Corner:
roxnroll: Lol! I love how you said "business". Ahahaha! That was too great. Yes, I guess it is time for him to get down to it. I mean...wtf he snapped. Like, even I was surprised and I wrote it. Aha. Well hun, your wait is over cause here is the next chapter and it should answer a few of your answers.
BlackBluAnge: -shakes intensely- BlackBluAnge BlackBluAnge BlackBluAnge BlackBluAnge BlackBluAnge!!! -stops- LOL! Yes! He DID snap! WOO! Isn't it exciting?! Phew, i'm glad you're still reading it. It's worth the read especially these few chapters! BWAHA! Lmao and btw LMFAO I love what you did to Sasuke. It still kind of surprises me how some people..still...love him. Ah!
animequeen100: LOL! You're right. I'd just be writing about her dead body...her...dead...pathetic..body. Lol, it would go something like this:
-This is not the story-
I sat motionless at her body. Just sat there as the rain continued to pour on my body. She was dead. She was dead. I killed her. I already killed her. I took a moment to regain my breath and then refolded my switch blade. I killed her...I killed her... too fast. Shit. Shit. This was too soon. My urges became uncontrolable. I killed her. I actually killed her and she wasn't coming back.
-End-
Sorry..I couldn't help myself.
Cyndee: Hey! You're new! Aw, your review was so sweet. I'm glad you like how it's unexpected. In my opinion, some stories are just so slow...like nothing important happens for like..4 chapters. Kind of like fillers. Aha! Thanks for the review!

Sonora-Margaret: No! She's not dead! BWAHAH! ... -shifty eyes-
Little Japanime Girl: Ch-Ch-CHOJI?! NOOOOOOOoooooooo. -dies- LOL! Omg! My cousin said the exact same thing when I read this to her. She was like "Sakura...you dumbshit" And she was nervously laughing too! Aha! LOL! Yes! Sasuke does have competition. -wink-

Oh well, i'd probably do the same! But yes, poor Sakura. Thankyou for your great compliments! I try and make the length of each chapter just right. Cause I notice that when it's too long...one..it takes years to write up and two..it takes years to read also! And yes! It's also a pet peeve of mine when conversations aren't paragraphed. Sigh. Yeah, this is my very first first person writing and i'm glad you like it.
hugsanimekisses04: Sigh, another person who still loves Sasuke. Teehee! He's just too attractive, ne? That's true! I guess..she turned him on. Lol! She shouldn't have said that right? But if she didn't...the chapter would be boring! Teehee! I like TorD too but trust me..you wouldn't wanna play their game! haha. Aw, thanks..im so flattered that you think i'm an awesome writer! -hugs- You're amazing!
Tishni: Long time no review my friend! Intense indeed -winks-! Hope to comment on your reviews again soon!
Don't hesitate to give me suggestions people! I like to add things if I like the idea! Teehee!
Hugs and kisses and love to my BETA Jason!
Chapter 8
Wanting
Have you ever woken up, completely oblivious to where you were? It was my first time. I woke up in a room with various posters on the wall. It was vaguely familiar. I jolted upright, realising I was in Sasuke's room. He slowly walked through the door, one hand in his pocket. He had a look of uncertainty in his eyes.
"What happened?" I whispered, running fingers through my hair. My head ached but all I could remember was that we were both sitting at the park.
"Don't play stupid with me. You know exactly what happened." he sneered, keeping his distance from me.
"What's wrong?" Why was he acting so weird?
"Shut up Sakura." He said again...annoyed.
"What's wrong with you?"
He cocked an eyebrow and then sat on the bed, still feeling uncertain. His hand was still nestled in his pocket.
"You don't remember?"
"No...What happened?" I tried my best to recollect the memories but was unsuccessful. I pursed my lips only to find myself engulfed in a kiss with him.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked again, this time smiling.
"Thank god you're okay." he smirked. "I knew you'd be fine." He kissed my forehead and then ran his fingers through his hair.
"What happened?" I asked again.
"Well," he paused. "I dared you to jump off the swings when you were high enough, and while you were running, you fell on the pavement and scraped yourself all over. Then you went unconscious. It was a pretty bad fall." He kissed my cheek lightly and then grabbed my hand.
"Oh...and my clothes?" I had just realized that I was wearing his loose clothing.
"Well, when I was carrying you home, it started raining."
"And you changed me?"
"Hn," He took his hand out of his pocket and placed it on his lap.
"Thanks," I said a bit embarrassed. "Why didn't you just call an ambulance." He looked to the floor when I said this.
"I don't know."
He must have been too worried for me. How cute.
"Thank you." I whispered before leaning in towards him. He grimaced and then gave me a soft kiss. There was something wrong, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.
"Let me get you something to eat." he offered. He quietly got off the bed and sauntered out of the room. I hadn't noticed Itachi, who was standing at the door. His eyes followed Sasuke out of the room and then glared at me. He stepped into the room and then started walking towards me.
"Feeling better?" His low voice made me cringe. It was a voice much similar to Sasuke's; much better. Without receiving an answer, he brushed his fingers softly across my cheek and then quickly exited the room. I watched him exit and then smiled as Sasuke walked in, carrying a bowl of soup in his hands.
"I'm fine Sasuke." I protested as he shoved the bowl in my hands.
"It'll make you feel even better." he smirked and grabbed the spoon. "I'll feed you."
I blushed.
"Pathetic." he mumbled as he pushed the spoon into my mouth, forcing me to drink it. Chicken noodle soup; my favourite. "Are you sure you don't remember?" he asked.
"No. Should I remember?"
"No, it's best you don't I guess. It's just weird."
I agreed with him as he fed me another spoon.
"I don't want anymore." I whined. I wasn't hungry.
"You're a baby." he said angrily, placing the bowl forcefully on the table. Then he sat beside me.
"How long was I out for?"
"24 Hours. I called your mom and explained the situation to her. She knows you're here." he paused and then wrapped his arms around my stomach. I winced at pain coming from my abdomen and then snuggled into him.
Sasuke started trailing kisses down my neck and jaw line. This was different, but I didn't really mind. It kinda felt nice.
"What's wrong with you?" I smirked. "You've never done this before."
"I haven't?" he whispered.
"No." I giggled. His kisses tickled my skin.
"Like it?"
"Maybe." I giggled again.
He stopped and turned my head so I was facing him.
"You scared me." he said sincerely, reading my eyes. I gave him a long kiss and then slowly got off his bed.
"I have to get home." I mumbled to myself.
-----
Once I was home, I rushed to my bedroom to change my clothes. I silently thanked Sasuke when I saw that he hadn't removed my bra nor my underwear. I grabbed my towel and headed for the bathroom.
Ten scars. I had found myself counting them as the steaming water hit my body. They barely stung anymore. Thank god Sasuke had been with me. He saved my life, but why didn't I remember anything? I shut my eyes and tried my best to remember. Anything. I had to remember something.
Rain.
My eyes slowly opened. Yes. It was raining. Actually, it was pouring. But Sasuke said it was pouring while he carried me home, while I was unconscious. But it was raining. I remembered clearly. The rain hitting my forehead. The rain wetting his hair. Sasuke. He was soaking. I remembered clearly. But why would he lie? Why would Sasuke lie?
I stepped out of the shower and wrapped my towel around me. As I was turning to the mirror, I caught glimpse of a small purple bruise on the side of my neck. I stared at it through the mirror. A small, purple bruise. It kind of looked like a...no. I stepped back in fear. Sasuke's face occupied my mind. His crooked smirk and his...his laughter! A hickey. It was a hickey!
Sasuke!
It was all coming back to me now.
I threw off my towel and looked at the scars. Long, thin slits. Cuts from a blade. I tried to hold in a scream. I was raped. I remembered. It was Sasuke. The rain. The switchblade. The laughter. The demonic laughter. I tried to force away the memories by pushing my hands to my ears. This wasn't happening. I was going crazy. This was not happening. Was this a dream? No. Not a dream. Reality. My boyfriend raped me. He almost killed me. But why didn't he finish what he was doing? Why am I still alive?
Then I realized. He was toying with me. He's waiting to kill me. Monster. What a monster.
What about all the trust? The trust I had laid on this boy...this monster. I was beginning to become fond of him and then he just releases himself at me. Like an animal. How about his kindness? His love for me? His cute grins and smirks? Were they all a lie? All just to get me in his fucking bed? I thought he...loved me. No! Love was too strong. How could I be so stupid? How could I let him get to me so easily?
Why didn't I listen to Naruto? He knew all along. He knew something was going to happen! He knew that this boy was different. Why didn't I listen to the person I trusted most?
My eyes started welling up.
How could I fall for his trap? I felt my knees push to the floor. I wanted to faint but I couldn't. This was actually happening. I was actually in this mess and there was no way out of it. How could I let him do this to me? Where was the strength I had before? How could I let him have me so easily.
No! I must be dreaming. I felt my body hit the floor but there was no pain. I must be dreaming. I...must..be..dreaming.
You're not dreaming.
The tears just started spilling out but there was no sound. No sobbing or crying. Just tears. Just useless..pathetic...tears.
He doesn't love me. He doesn't love me.. And I thought I...
"No!" I screamed, jolting upright on the bathroom floor. No. I don't. I don't. Not that easily. No! I don't love Uchiha Sasuke!
I quickly dressed and sat on my bed. The crying had stopped..for now. What was I going to do? He was going to kill me. I had to break up with him. I had to call the police. I had to do something. If I broke up with him now, he would know that I knew and he'd kill me anyways. No. I can't let him know I know. The cops wouldn't believe me.
I was stuck. I had no options left. I couldn't get Naruto involved. What was I going to do? I could try to avoid him. He was going to kill me. He wanted to kill me. He almost did. I stood up from my bed and started pacing around my room. Shit. Shit. My boyfriend wanted to kill me. My mind went back to the police. They wouldn't believe me unless I had proof. Proof. I needed proof. The blade...anything. The blade... The thought of it made me shudder. I still couldn't believe he kept a blade.
I stopped moving; it was decided. I had to get proof. Till then I would act as if nothing happened. I couldn't let him know. I would have to be careful. Anything was possible from Sasuke. Especially now. Anything. I sat back down on my bed and the phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hello?" It was him. Sasuke. His voice sent shivers through my spine.
"H-h-hey baby." Why was I stuttering? Be strong Sakura. Be strong atleast now.
"What's up?"
"Nothing. I miss you..." I said, forcing a smile to make me sound realistic.
"Yeah, me too. I called to check up on you. Want me to come over?" He chuckled. I swallowed loudly, letting a tear fall down my cheek.
"I'll live." I said a bit too fiercely.
"Okay then. Listen, I have to go and help Itachi with something. I'll call you later?"
"Yeah sure."
"Okay." He paused. "I love you."
Fucking bastard.
"I love you too." I forced. I hated him. I really hated him.
Finished! Wee! Sigh..I hope you liked it. And sorry for it being a tad bit too short this time! But, for you..I shall put up the next chapter on Thursday! Not that long of a wait! Review, review, review!!
Lotsa luv,
Anna
