So I just read over the last chapter and I realised I made a typo! It is supposed to say '. I do believe that he wouldn't cheat on me but I saw it with my own eyes.' Instead of would. Ok :)

I am so sorry for not updating in over 2 months, I'm not going to make excusing about why I didn't update, because frankly I really couldn't be bothered before. But I feel like writing right now so I thought let's not keep them waiting.

Charlie's first birthday was so much fun, he loved it. We had a birthday cake the same size as him :P

Softball has been crazy; we went to Coffs Harbour in Sydney for a competition. We only got to play one day, because everything started to flood. We got stranded where we were staying for a week, until the waters went down.

OMG! I just got told I am nominated for MVP in the whole Brisbane softball association. I am so happy; I have never been nominated before! Wish me luck that I get it :) it is this Saturday I'm so excited.

Chapter 9 of: The Girl Next Door.

'Recap' "SAKURA WATCH OUT!" I hear over the top of the horn. I feel an impact on my left side and all I feel is pain. I get pushed from where I was standing and now am lying on the road.

Now it occurs to me those two lights where head lights of a car. "Somebody call an ambulance!"

Sakura's P.O.V

"Somebody call an ambulance!" I heard someone yell. I feel someone grab me, I open my eyes to see who it is, and its Sasuke. "Sakura are you alright?, I'm so sorry Sakura, you have got to believe me, I didn't do anything she jumped me. Please believe me! I love you!" He rambled on to me; I could barely here what he was saying as I felt myself in and out of consciousness.

I do believe him; I can see it in his eyes that he is not lying. "I believe you Sasuke, I lov..ve yo..ou too." I coughed a little, it's getting a little hard to breathe. "I'm not letting you go until the ambulance gets here. I'm going to sit right here with you." Sasuke whispered to me. I lifted my hand to his face and cupped his cheek. Then the fog shrouded me in darkness.

Sasuke P.O.V

Sakura reached up and touched my cheek with her hand, I looked back down at her and realised that her eyes were closing. Her hand fell from my face and her whole body went limp in my arms.

"Sakura! SAKURA!" I yelled at her body hoping that she would wake up. "Stay with me Sakura!" I said as I pulled her body closer to me. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, please stay with me!" I looked up and saw that there was a crowd gathering on the foot path. I see Karin as she walks out of the house and all of a sudden I fell anger coursing through my veins. If she hadn't had jumped at me, Sakura wouldn't be like this.

"Karin you slut, you did this to Sakura! If you didn't kiss me she wouldn't be like this!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. She pushes through the crowd and looks at us sitting in the middle of the road. "She deserves everything she gets, now come on Sasuke leave her there and come with me." Karin stated with a straight face. Naruto and Ino were standing beside her when she said that, you could see the furiousness on their faces after she said that. Ino clenched her fist and then automatically moved closer to Karin, she tapped her on her shoulder, when she turned to face her all that she saw, was a fist flying into her face. "Don't you ever say that you bitch." Karin fell to the floor after Ino hit her. She sat up, rubbing under her nose which was bleeding. "Fuck off, no one wants you here. " I hear her yell, as Karin runs off, hopefully to go die in a ditch.

"Sakura, please don't leave me." I hugged her body close to me. I could her sirens getting close to where we are. "The ambulance is almost here Sakura, just hold on a little bit longer." I was staring at her face, so peaceful, if I didn't know any better I would think she was sleeping but she had cuts and grazes on her face. The ambulance pulled up next to us.

The ambulance officers got out of the ambulance and pulled out a gurney. They rolled it over to us moving quickly. "Let her go boy, we have to check her out to see if it is ok to move her." I reluctantly put her back on the cement so the red haired and the brown hair man could attend to her. The red haired man put his hands on Sakura's neck feeling if it was broken or something as he put a neck brace on her neck.

"Yeah, we can move her, get her on the gurney." He said to the browned haired guy, he grabbed her feet and the other one grabbed her shoulders. "1, 2, 3 lift." They put her on the stretcher, and wheeled her over to the ambulance. They pushed it inside while getting inside. I went to where they wheeled her over and got inside. "I'm sorry son, but you can't come with us, we need room in here just in case something happens." I said as he tried to get to me to get out. "No way am I getting out, she is my girlfriend, I'm the reason this happened to her." I said as I pushed passed the guy.

I grabbed her hand as the guy shut the door. He put an IV in her arm and hooked her up to a heart rate monitor, which started beeping meaning it was turned on, then the put a mask over her mouth which steamed up every time she took a breath. I caressed her face with my hand and moved a strand of hair out of her face. I frowned when I saw the blood that was coating her hair above the right side of her face. I was listening to the beeping of the heart monitor and noticed that the beeping was getting slower. "Hurry up, her heart rate is dropping." The red haired man said to the driver.

"Sakura, you have to say with me, I finally got you, you can't just leave me. I love you." I whispered into her ear hoping that if she could hear me she would fight for her life. I put my head down on the side of the stretcher as I rubbed my finger over her hand I was holding. I felt tears prick in my eyes, but my pride tried to make me hold it in. To no avail, I felt I rouge tear roll down my face. I looked up at her face; she looked so serene it was surreal. I would give anything right now for her to just be yelling at me, telling me I should talk properly or yelling at Naruto for perving at girls in the bath room. This is not a way I would every like to see any one I cared about.

Then out of nowhere I heard the brown haired man yell. "She's stopped breathing." No way, she can't have, I looked up at the mask over her mouth and saw that it wasn't steaming. "She has a pulse; we have to get her breathing again." I tightened the grip I had on her hand. We pulled up at the hospital, the doors flew open and the gurney was immediately wheeled out of the ambulance making me drop Sakura's hand. I jumped out of the car and ran to her side grabbing her hand again. "We have got a 17 year old female, hit by a car, possible head injury, possible broken ribs, low pulse, just stopped breathing." A woman with short blonde hair jumped on top of her, grabbing Sakura's face she tilted it back, as far as it would with a brace on her neck. She placed her index and thumb over her nose and then placed her mouth over Sakura's and breathed into her lungs. She stopped for a second to see if it had worked. She frowned and tried again as they wheeled her into the emergency room.

"Sir, you can't be in here!" I let go of her hand as the wheeled Sakura away from me. "Please let me be with her!" I begged them to let me through. "I'm sorry sir, you can't be in here, and we will let you know if anything happens. Please wait in the waiting room." A lady with shoulder length brown hair said as she escorted me out of the emergency area.

I sat down on the car in the waiting room, there was really depressing piano music playing. 'Sakura you better pull through this, I don't know what I will do without you.' I thought to myself. The over whelming feeling of what had happened came rushing over me again. I had watched my girlfriend get hit by a car. It's all my fault, I'm the reason she is here, I'm the reason she might die.

I put my head in my hands that were resting on my knees, the silent tears just started running down my face. I didn't care about my stupid Uchiha pride right now; the girl I love is fighting for her life. I sat there head in my hands, just waiting for anyone to come out and tell me something.

I don't know how long I was sitting there, I never moved a muscle. I felt someone put a hand on my shoulder, I looked up and it was Naruto. "Teme, is she ok? What is happening?" He said as he stared at me. I stood up and hugged him. "Dobe, it's all my fault, it's my fault she is in here fighting for her life." He stiffened up as I said the last bit of my sentence. "What do yo mean fighting for her life? She will be ok right teme?" I shook my head. "I don't know, she stopped breathing just before we arrived and they said she might have head injuries. I don't know what is happening. Everything was going so good and now it's just turned to shit. They won't even tell me if she is alright. The last thing I saw of her was a woman on top of her trying to get her to breathe again." I patted his back as let him go.

"Thanks." I know that Uchiha's are supposed to be almighty and not need anyone for anything, but every once in a while I like to have someone there to talk to, and it always seems to be Naruto. "For what Teme?" He glanced at me as I sat back down in the chair. "For being here, I really needed someone. I takes a lot for me to admit that, but I appreciate it."

"Sakura Haruno." The same nurse that had the shoulder length brown hair walked out of the emergency room. Naruto and I were standing in front of her in a second. "How is she? Is she ok?" I asked holding my breath. "She is ok, we got her breathing by herself again, she has a few broken ribs and some cut above her right eye. But I have to say that's the good news, there is something else." What else could be worse, I thought that her stoping breathing was pretty bad but there is something worse. "She has swelling in the brain, which has caused her to go into a coma."

End of chapter 10.

Never thought I would get this far, this is the longest fanfiction I have ever written. I'm sorry again for the long wait, and I'm sorry for it being short but I hope u like it :)

I have an idea for another story but I won't start it until this is finished, which won't be for a while. I have a lot of ideas for this fic. It's just a matter of finding the time to write.

P.S wish me luck with the awards night.

See ya next time Vicki. Review = 3
