Chapter 9
Sakura Pov
I stared at the Kewolen Princess in shock. This was my first time seeing her on her own, without Kevin or any other soldiers that protected her. She seems a lot.. smaller on her own. Her two little black cats that I had never noticed before blended in with her dark clothing which gave her a childish look, yet she still looked like Royalty.
"Come on Sakura, it's late. Tsunade is worried about you. Let's go home." the Princess spoke, dragging me off. I swear this is the first time I've ever been dragged by a girl at least ten years younger than me.
We walked a couple steps as I glanced back at Tenten, although her body was now covered by the dark trees. I sighed as the Princess let go of me but still ignored me as we walked back to the castle. I took in a breath as it came into view, ready to face Karin and clique of girls from what I did earlier that night.
"Sakura!" Karin yelled as she walked up to me.. right where the Princess was standing.
"I guess this is her form of punishment.." I mumbled to myself as I looked at Karin in the eye
"What do you have to say for yourself?!" she yelled into my ear, a roar of girls coming from behind her
"I'm sorry for slapping you" I mumbled looking at the ground
"Sorry, what was that?!" she yelled, turning her large ear towards me. Like hell she didn't hear me. I inhaled a deep breath
"I'M SORRY FOR SLAPPING YOU!" I yelled into her ear, running to the castle and into my room, slamming the door before anyone could follow me.
"Sakura! Where were you!" Tsunade called as I dove under my bed again, hiding
"I was... walking around" I mumbled, full knowing she could her me
"You missed curfew, and you got into a fight with Karin!" She spoke loudly, sitting on top of the bed
"I must have lost track of time and she's the one who was making false rumors about me" I played with the ends of my hair, curling it around my finger
"That does not matter; you know how the Princess is with curfew, and you should know better than to hit!" Tsunade spoke again, mothering me.
"I'm sorry.." I apologized not wanting to fight.
"Your forgiven. Just try not to be late next time" she mumbled as she got off the bed heading outside, closing my door.
I sighed as I got out from under, going towards my window, leaning slightly out of it. Tonight could not be any worse than it is already. I took a deep breath of the cold air, trying to ignore the still-loud yells of the girls. I rolled my eyes. Were they still obsessing over the slap? I looked down at the mossy ground, seeing Sasuke look straight back at me. I felt my face get hot as I waved down to him. I quickly glanced around the stone wall to see if there were any other windows... which their wasn't. I paused for a few seconds, why was he standing below my window... looking at me? He slightly waved back, his face still as emotionless as ever. I gave him a smile. At least I knew he wasn't mad at me in anyway shape or form. I took a step back from the window, heading to my bed to lie down.
I couldn't fall asleep until the sun had shone through my window.
