Oh Sakura aint happy

Raaaaaaaaaaaant time.

The Happenings

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

"Rahhhhhhh!" Sakura shrieked as she stomped after Sasuke out of the small village, leaving a speechless Suigetsu and Karin in her wake.

"Sakura-chan, please try to calm down," Juugo soothed, Sakura shot him a look and found it near impossible to focus her anger at him. So she looked towards Sasuke who was currently walking casually along the dirt path.

She had never felt so angry. She was pretty sure she could feel her blood boiling within her body, her fist twitching dangerously at her sides.

"What the hell did you do…" Suigetsu asked a little wearily, aimed at Sasuke.

"Hn,"

"Don't fucking 'hn' him," Sakura spat, still walking somewhat behind them, little known to her, Sasuke raised an amused eyebrow at her colourful language.

He really had pissed her off.

"Sakura," He turned, smirking, "You're annoying."

They had all stopped now, her eyes wide, the nostalgia overwhelming her.

"And you're a selfish basta-"

"Language Sakura," Sasuke said, failing to keep the amusement out of his voice. He was walking ahead of them now, still allowing Juugo to lead the way, his eyes closed and his face rather stoic except for the hint of a tug at the corner of his lips.

She grit her teeth, a vein popping on her temple.

Suigetsu stepped a little closer to Karin only to be shoved away by her, clearing a space between Sasuke and the kunoichi on the warpath.

"Why couldn't you let me do that one, one tiny little thing?!" She screeched, the wind blowing her pink strands of hair into her face.

"Surely, it would be a burden to come find me," She spat, her voice laced with venom.

Sasuke smirked slightly as he chose to hold back the fact that he would know her chakra signature anywhere. It was so… jumpy and fluctuating, probably because of her frequent mood swings.

Frequent?! He left three years ago.

He frowned at the strange thought.

"What happened to you?!" She shrieked, throwing her arms out. He turned, his expression one of complete boredom.

"You were always cold and… and quiet," She yelled, stumbling on her words, eyes ablaze, "But you were never cruel or like this!"

Suigetsu snickered.

"N'awh Sasuke-kun. You? The quiet type?" He mocked, pouting a little and attempting to put on an 'adorable' face. Karin also, had a dreamy look upon her face as she stared at the Uchiha.

He glared at them and stared irritably at Sakura.

"Am I ruining your reputation Sasuke?" Sakura said coldly, looking at him from underneath her pink bangs.

Sasuke's eyes narrowed as they quickly scanned the other members of the team and they flitted back to Sakura, onyx boring into her.

"Things change." He said icily, the venom detectable in his tone. She grit her teeth, and stepped forward so she was less than ten feet away from him.

"Of all people I know that!" She said, her eyes pleading, "But" They fell downcast.

"People don't change, Sasuke" She whispered harshly, stepping closer.

"You knew nothing about me," He said after a pause, he started to turn away.

"Gaaaaah!" She shrieked once again, tugging at her hair in exasperation, causing him to turn around briefly, the annoyance showing on his features.

"Sasuke, we knew everything about you!" She called, the raw emotion being ripped from her, not intentional in the slightest.

"Me and Naruto," Her voice a little softer at the mention of their other team-mates name. "Knew everything about you,"

"Naruto? Isn't that the Kyuubi boy?" Karin muttered only to be ignored by the rest o them.

"You're favourite food,"

"Ha! Even I know that, its Nigiri!" Karin said cattily, Sakura glanced at her dully.

"Wrong." She said, Karin looked at her, eyes wide.

"Wh-what?!"

"It's tomato based origiri, right Sasuke?" Sakura said quietly turning back to Sasuke.

"Wow." Suigetsu muttered as Sasuke stayed silent.

"And you're favourite place in Konoha," Sakura said, her confidence growing a little, "By the docks opposite the Uchiha Estate."

Suigetsu let out a low whistle.

Sasuke stared at her, his brows knitting together in confusion.

How does she remember all this.

"Do you not remember anything about us, Sasuke?" She asked, looking at him.

"No." He answered bluntly.

Suigetsu watched the barely concealed panic that flashed across the girls face before she covered it up.

"You would visit your parents graves on Tuesday and Thursday, taking at least an hour because… because you thought they needed the utmost respect." She said softly, stepping on the sensitive topic.

His eyes flashed red for a split second.

"Don't talk of my parents," He spat, Sakura tried not to flinch. She stayed silent as the thoughts whirled through her head.

It didn't make sense.

None of it made sense.

"I don't understand Sasuke!" She shouted, her green eyes flitting between his black ones.

"What are you talking about?" He spat harshly, his own fist clenching at his side.

"If you so protective of them … then why…"He voice died out before she looked up sharply.

"Why did you leave your parents?!" She asked, looking at him frowning.

"Shut up."

"Pinkie," Suigetsu said warningly before a hand was slapped over his mouth, by what can only be described as excited looking Karin.

"You're on a mission to kill your older brother! Would your parents be prou-"

A sharp gasp barely escaped her mouth as she was slammed against the trunk of a nearby tree. The pain erupted in her right shoulder as it collided with a lump on the bark and her arm hung limp at her side, the slightest of movement sending jolts of pain through it.

"S-sasu-ke," She tried to say, her windpipe blocked by his white knuckled hand wrapped around her throat.

His eyes bled the red sharingan as she held her so her feet barely touched the floor.

"Don't speak of things you don't understand," He spat, his hand twitching around her throat. She clawed at his hand, attempting to make him let go. Her vision swam as her oxygen left her lungs.

"S-sasuk-e-kun," She whispered as she felt the pain build up in her neck and back not to mention the heavy feeling filling her chest.

He heard her whisper his name and something stirred, it was so nostalgic of the way she used to say it.

She used the honorific on the end of his name.

"SASUKE!"

He briefly acknowledged Suigetsu's voice screaming at him in the background.

His eyes closed and he dropped her, making her land in a thud on the dusty ground. She sucked in a sharp intake of breath and clasped at her throat.

"Sai have you finished?"

"Hai."

"Sasuke." Kakashi spat harshly as he watched the boy slam the girl against the tree.

His eyes narrowed.

"Sai, Genma," He stood up on the branch.

"Sakura Haruno successfully scouted, our mission is complete."

"Hai!"

"We should return to Konoha."

As they made their way back, Kakashi couldn't help the strange thought that was constantly niggling the back of his mind.

He needed to hit something, really hit the lights out of something.

Like a person.

Maybe make them scream a little.

He shook the thoughts from his mind.

That damned girl. He glanced behind him, he had walked quite a way now. Suigetsu was lifting Sakura to her feet, whom was still kneeling at the foot of the tree and Karin was standing idly by.

"Tch,"

He turned his head back round, boring a hole into the dirt path with his eyes before snapping them shut in irritation.

So that hadn't been the best reaction he could have come out with.

But the girl didn't know what she was talking about. She had no right.

But…

He gingerly opened his eyes, staring at the floor once again although without the deadly intent. He frowned as an image of his father made its-self known in his mind's eye.

Standing there, arms crossed, no amusement or any sort of emotion present on his face.

How his father seemed to prefer Itachi considerably.

"He's our genius alright. You've done us proud Itachi."

He clearly remembered his father saying on the evening Itachi passed his Anbu exam at the dinner table and no one ever spoke at the dinner table.

Sasuke thought back to when his father would constantly turn down his offers to train, to train Itachi instead.

He chuckled darkly.

Are you still proud of him now, Otou-san?

And what of his mother?

She had definitely enjoyed Sasuke's company more, despite how she would deny this so adamantly and determinedly say she loved both her sons equally.

Uchiha Mikoto.

His Oka-san.

She would always be the one to comfort him when he was feeling down when his father would reject him for his older brother.

Sasuke remembers helping her cook sometimes and smirked slightly at when he reminisced about when he got scolded for peeling potatoes with a kunai.

He stopped walking as fresh, uneasy thoughts crossed his mind.

Would his parents be proud of him now?

He must have stood there for quite a while, his head tilted down as when he felt a hand on his arm he nearly flinched at the sudden contact.

"Sasuke-kun, are you okay?"

In all honesty, he had expected that to be Sakura standing there, looking at him apologetically saying she was sorry for mentioning his deceased parents.

But it wasn't.

She was walking beside Suigetsu and it seemed she had put as much distance between them as possible. Sakura wasn't even looking at him, her eyes were set on the floor and he noted the added glisten to them.

And the fact she was cradling her shoulder, wincing every now and again.

His brows knitted together as his eyes turned to the floor once again.

"Sasuke-san." Juugo's voice broke the silence engulfing them all.

"Yes?" He asked bluntly, not taking his eyes off the ground.

"The stream ahead is only small so we may have to wash together."

"Hn."

Karin squealed, "I don't want to wash in front of all of you!"

"Well too bad, cause that's the only choice we have." Sasuke said bluntly and some-what distractedly.

They soon came to the small stream and indeed there was no where they could go to be sheltered from the view of other people. It was literally a stream running through a field. Sasuke sighed.

"Karin," Sakura said albeit quietly. Karin turned her head towards her, "Can you help me get my shirt off, I think my shoulder is dislocated."

All heads turned towards the girl, and Sasuke saw Karin's eyes flit to look at Sasuke wearily before turning back to the other girl and nodding slightly.

"Arigato" Sakura said, her voice barely reaching the other members ears.

I dislocated her shoulder?

That would explain why she only used one arm to try and prise his hand from around her throat.

An uneasy feeling hit him as he realised that was the first time he'd ever hurt her… physically.

Ever.

No-one ever hurt her, she was the one him, Naruto and Kakashi protected within the team.

And yet, he had, without any thought, slammed her into a tree consequently dislocating her right shoulder.

"Oi, Sasuke, y'know you could be a little more subtle…" Suigetsu's voice rang out, and snapped him from his thoughts and realised he was indeed staring in the direction of the girls, leaving a red faced Karin and uneasy looking Sakura.

"Tch,"

He snapped his eyes shut and walked over to where the other males were, only opening them when he felt the water beneath his feet. He knelt down and began to remove his shirt, his bangs covering his eyes.

Well -he swallowed- Sakura had grown up a little.

He hadn't seen anything too… ero sennin but she was just sitting there in her chest bindings and tight leggings.

Chest bindings?! Since did she even need those?!

He mentally slapped him-self, of course she needed them, she's not going to stay thirteen forever.

Bad, bad thoughts. Stop.

He shook his head vigorously and cupped his hands into the water splashing the contents into his face.

Kami…

Things were so much better without her.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

"Thank you Karin for helping me with my shirt." Sakura said. Karin nodded stubbornly.

"Aren't you going to heal your shoulder?" She asked, uninterested. Sakura nodded. She placed her other hand on her shoulder but then stopped.

"You can look away if you want." She said, Karin merely shook her head.

"Aa.. okay." Sakura said, before harshly pulling her arm downwards causing her to let out a muffled pained scream and force it upwards again, definitely feeling the feeling return to her arm.

She breathed out heavily, her hands shaking. Karin glanced over at the boys who were all staring at the girl, including Sasuke with an unreadable expression on his face.

"HEY! Can a girl get some privacy around here?" She shrieked at them, making them turn around. She turned to Sakura.

"That looked nasty," Karin said quietly, finally being at least civil with the girl. Sakura smiled a little.

"Ah, it's not that bad," She said looking at the other girl. Karin frowned.

"Why do you do that?" She asked, crossing her arms. Sakura frowned.

"Do what?"

"Act all strong all the time, like saying that wasn't that bad when it clearly hurt."

Sakura stared down at her lap.

"… I just don't want people to think I'm weak any-more."

Karin slumped to the ground beside her, rolling her eyes. Sakura stared at her.

"And by people you mean Sasuke?" She asked boredly, glancing at the girl. Sakura looked down.

"I guess so."

Karin frowned and sighed dramatically as she absent mindedly took of her sandals.

" So, you were on the same Team… I remember you."

Sakura looked at her, confusion contorting her features.

"What?" She asked, her eye brows knitted together.

"In that, Chunin Exam thing, I was there, that was the first time I saw Sasuke." Karin admitted, " Yeah I remember you."

"You were there?"

"Yeah, I got my-self into trouble with a bear, Sasuke saved me." She said, her voice dying out at the end. Sakura smiled.

"He doesn't make things any better does he?" Sakura said, smiling down at her lap.

"Tch, I knew you liked him."

"That's… not true."

"And that's a lie."

They lapsed into silence and started to actually wash themselves over. All of a sudden, a large tidal wave of water hit Karin and spluttered, instantly turning to the males of the group.

"KYAH! Oh real mature SUIGETSU."

She swung out her leg into the water and successfully splashed all three of the boys. Sakura giggled a little as she looked over a Sasuke whose hair was now stuck to his face.

Ignoring the anxious feeling building in her chest, she decided to go against her gut feeling for once.

Her eyes glinted as she had a brilliant idea.

"Hey Sasuke, look over there!" She said urgently, pointing to something across the stream. He stood up, frowning at her immensely.

"What." Glancing to where she was looking.

"There!" She stepped behind him as when he was still trying to pinpoint what she was looking at. She chuckled evilly.

"Got you," She forced her hands into the small of his back, resisting the shiver when she felt the muscles ripple underneath. He stumbled forward only to stand atop the water, looking at her with a raised eyebrow.

"Well that's no fun." Sakura deadpanned, she was hoping he'd fall in like a normal person but noooooo.

"Pst Sakura, you missed a bit," Came a voice behind her, she turned wide eyed only to get a glance of Suigetsu's purple eyes before being harshly shoved into the water.

She was normal, and so she went under.

Sasuke watched the girl from the water top as she plummeted below the surface. He smirked a little.

Some ninja she was.

The smirk dropped from his face. He had literally just dislocated her shoulder and basically threatened her and here she was acting all normal with him.

How does she put up with it all.

A scowl came to replace the smirk.

"I think you should go help Sakura-san." Juugo said from behind Karin and Suigetsu.

They turned horrified.

He wouldn't. It was Juugo! He was sensible.

He merely picked the two up by the leg and threw them in, he then went back to sitting idly on the grass picking at the small flowers that grew there.

Sasuke watched his other two team mates plummet under the surface of the water.

He briefly considered why he had chosen such incompetent ninjas to travel with him, temporarily forgetting the annoying girl.

Sakura.

It was only then he realised Sakura hadn't come back up to the surface and he could no longer see any form of pink in the water.

Oh wait

There it is-

"Shi-"

A hand emerged from the water, clasping around his ankle and pulling him under. He opened his eyes briefly and saw the wavey silhouette of a pink haired kunoichi with a hand over mouth doing something which suspiciously looked like laughing. He pushed him-self back up to surface to come face to face with his whole team laughing at him.

He glared at each and every one of them.

"Nice one, Pinkie!" Suigetsu high fived Sakura where as Karin was still laughing a little.

Suigetsu looked at Sakura and tilted his head slightly.

"What's that?" He said pointing to something.

"Oh I'm not falling for that, I'm already in the water Suigetsu." Sakura said, smiling. He shook his head.

"No, on your neck." Her face froze and her eyes became wide.

"Nothing, no nothing!" She said quickly, placing a hand to cup the back of her neck.

Sasuke frowned.

"I bet it's a tattoo of Sasuke's name." Karin said, smirking at the other kunoichi. Sakura looked affronted.

"No! Of course its not!"

In a strange way, Sasuke was a little offended by the way she said that.

"Is that a bruise?" Suigetsu had gone behind when she was talking. She spun around.

"Suigetsu!"

"Is it?"

"Kinda,"

Suigetsu swam around her once again and prised her hand off her neck. He scanned his eyes over it as Sakura hovered there, looking around awkwardly.

It was a long, narrow bruise in the middle of her neck with a slight pinkish tinge to it.

"What is it."

"It's right on your pressure point." Karin added, frowning.

"Yeah, some-one hit me too hard, I guess." She looked towards Sasuke, "I can't heal it either."

Freaking Sasuke, oh the irony.

"Jeez, they really wanted to knock you out." Suigetsu said, gawping at the bruise. Sakura frowned deeply, making patterns in the water with her finger.

"Yeah, guess so."

Sasuke stayed quiet.

He hadn't hit her that hard… he didn't think.

"Who was this person, like a rapist or something?!" Suigetsu remarked. Sakura blushed and spun around.

"No!"

"So you know who it was."

"Well, yeah." She answered.

"Who?!"

"We've spent enough time here, we should leave now." Sasuke said bluntly as he began to rise from the water. Karin nodded and followed. Sakura's eyes followed him and fell downcast once again before looking at Suigetsu. His own lilac eyes widened.

"Sasuke?" He mouthed to her. She stared at him dully for a while, before making a move to get out.

"C'mon Suigetsu. We have to go."

He turned in the water watching the kunoichi step carefully out of the water. A smirk found its way onto his lips as he saw the girl glance towards a completely oblivious Sasuke before looking away once more.

This was getting interesting.

"Naruto-kun?"

The blonde looked up from his place on the grass to see the Hyuuga girl standing there. He smiled weakly.

"Hey Hinata-chan." He said, his gaze returning to the grass, his fingers picking messily at it.

Her brows knitted together and she frowned.

"W-what's wrong?" She asked quietly. He glanced at her sadly and cast down his cerulean blue eyes.

"Ah nothing."

"I-if it was nothing, you w-would be at Ichiraku Ramen or …s-smiling." She smiled at him slightly, her face growing a little pink. He smiled at her weakly once again and she frowned.

She took a deep, deep breath in, before sitting relatively away from him, at least an arms length. He turned to look at her.

"You're really nice Hinata-chan." He said airily, his voice lacking the usual energy.

"Arigato…" She said quietly, her cheeks glowing at this point.

"Is it about S-Sakura-chan?" Hinata asked, this time her own eyes falling towards the grass in front of her yet she briefly saw him nod from the corner of her eye.

"I…I think that if you believe she'll be okay… s-she will be," He voice unusually calm as she looked up to the mid evening, pink sky.

"But Kakashi-sensei was telling me about all these things like rape and if Sasuke-teme hurt her."

"D-do you really think Sasuke-san would hurt her?" Hinata asked, turning towards him, hugging her knees. Naruto looked at her and laughed a little.

"Nope. Not at all. But Kaka-"

"H-he wa-…is your best friend so you probably know him b-better than Kakashi-san does." She said timidly, glancing towards the other boy to see his reaction. He stared her rather wide eyed for a while, before breaking out into a dazzling grin, instantaneously making her smile a bit.

"Yeah you're right Hinata-chan!" He beamed as he fell back onto the grass, his hands behind his head. Hinata stared at him as her eyes softened at the smile still upon his face.

"But …what about the," He swallowed, and frowned, "other thing he mentioned?"

Hinata quickly turned away, when his gaze was set on her. She glanced at him ever so quickly before turning her attention to the sky once again, a small smile upon her pale face.

"Ne, I d-don't think S-Sakura-chan would let anything like that h-happen."

"Really?" Naruto said, his voice the epitome of hope. She smiled.

"A-Aa. Do you remember when L-Lee-san tried to k-k-kiss her?" Hinata stammered, giggling at the memory.

Naruto laughed, his eyes closing.

"Yeah, I didn't think Bushy brows would wake up after that," He laughed loudly, clutching his belly. Hinata giggled slightly although, she did feel a little bad for Lee.

"Hey Hinata-chan."

She blinked and turned towards him, "Y-Yes?"

His eyes softened a little and he smiled at her.

"Thank you for cheering me up, I needed that."

She blushed and gingerly laid back, purposely turning away from Naruto as to avoid the oncoming fainting spell which would inevitably occur if she got any closer to him.

"T-That's okay, N-Naruto-kun."

Hey hey,

So yeah I added a little NaruHina in there for good measure. Tell me what you like and dislike etc etc

Review beyyyyy
