"I guess your with me, Neji!"

"Oh goody..."

They stepped into the cart as it jerked forward, signaling that it was moving again before completely coming to a stop to let other people on.

This went on for a while after before every cart was filled and the ferris wheel went around for a total of ten minutes. Currently Sasuke and Sakura were stopped at the very top as the pink haired girl gazed out at the gorgeous snow covered land of Japan...

"Its breathtaking."

"Yes, it is." Sasuke agreed as he pulled Sakura close to him and placed a light kiss on her cheek.

"And so are you, Sakura-chan..."

She blushed slightly while resting her head against Sasuke's arm as she continued to look out the large plexiglass window...

"That bear is so kawaii!!" Sakura announced as she pointed to a pink stuffed toy bear behind a large table where a man stood as well.

"I'll get you one."

Sakura watched as the tall, black haired male explained the rules to Sasuke as he paid close attention before taking a single white ball from the basket as he aimed. The idea of the game was to knock over the six stacked bottles using a single ball and if you managed to knock them all over you won a prize!

Sakura kept her eyes on the six stacked bottles as Sasuke aimed the ball before hurling it as hard as he could towards the bottles and awaited the outcome. Sakura's face lit up when she watched the bottles all fall, all except for one that was slowly tipping from side to side.

Eventually a large gust of wind swept by and sent the bottle to the floor as the male smiled at the young girl before asking her, "Which one would you like?"

"That one!"

Sakura pointed her index finger towards a large pink teddy bear with a bright smile on its face as the man grabbed it off the shelf and handed it to Sakura who hugged it to death while thanking Sasuke over and over again for winning it for her.

"Wow, Sasuke-teme sure is good..." Naruto mused as Neji nodded his head in agreement.

The rest of the day was spent riding more attractions and eating before everyone headed home due to Sakura feeling tired and in dire need of a nap...

Sasuke watched from the corner of his eye as Sakura settled herself in with the bear in her lap as she wrapped her arms around it and fell into a light sleep, her smile matching the one that the teddy bear had on its face...

'Sakura-tenshi...'

Take # 9: Proposed Arrangements

X

She shifted from side to side in her bed as she slowly opened her large, green eyes to look up at the ceiling of Uchiha Sasuke's bedroom. Her legs were entangled with Sasuke's, his arm draped over her stomach as he slept.

The stuffed bear that Sasuke had won for her the previous day was sitting at the edge of the bed, smiling at her.

Sakura shifted her weight to one side as she let her tired body rise up. Hands rubbing her tired eyes as she yawned momentarily before a squeak passed her lips in surprise from being pulled back down.

Sasuke now on top as he stared down sleepily at her, eyes half-lidden, hair in disarray. He looked so hot at the moment, Sakura just couldn't tear her gaze away from him as his lips suddenly descended upon hers...

Sensation ran up her spine as she let out a low moan. Even so early in the morning, Sasuke still knew how to make her blush and wish to make love to him... He tore his mouth away from hers as he ran his tongue down her neck.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"Hmmm..."

Sakura closed her eyes as she arched her back.

"Sasuke... Its so early..." She whispered breathlessly.

"So?" He raised a perfectly shaped brow at her.

His fingers trailed down her flat stomach region, tongue licking the hollow of her throat as she arched into him once again. She could feel the bulge in the front of his pants becoming hard as it pressed against her...

She ran her fingers through his already disheveled hair as he nibbled on her collar bone.

"Onegai..."

He could feel her desire rising, her lips were parted and her eyes were glazed over with something that Sasuke couldn't quite place...

His teeth grazed her cleavage as he slowly began to reveal what was hidden beneath that taunting shirt of hers. Her fingers curled around his shoulders as his kissing traveled down her stomach and his tongue swirled in her naval as she groaned.

The black, frilly bra she wore did nothing to hide the plump mounds from Sasuke. He reached behind her back and un-clasped the bra until he pulled the rest of it off and tossed it aside.

His mouth ran all over the valley of her breasts as she moaned continuously. It was like music to his ears as he finally claimed a perked nipple and bit down gently on it.

A knock sounded from downstairs as Sasuke cursed under his breath. Sakura lifted her body from the bed and pulled her discarded bra back on as well as her pajama top. Sakura followed after Sasuke until they reached the front of the door where Naruto stood.

"What are you doing here?"

"What? I'm not welcome here anymore?"

Naruto laughed as he pushed past the two.

"That's not a bad idea.." Sasuke whispered under his breath as he closed the front door.

"I just thought we could do something today."

Sakura smiled.

"That's an excellent idea! Don't you think so, Sasuke-kun!?"

He ran his hand down his face as he sighed.

"I suppose. Yes..."

Sakura placed her index finger against her chin in a thoughtful manner as she looked towards the ceiling.

"But. What would we do?"

Naruto too thought and at once thought of an excellent idea.

"Why don't we go ice-skating!?"

Sasuke furrowed his brows.

"Naruto, I don't think-"

"That sounds like fun!" Hollered Sakura.

Naruto laughed.

"See. Even Sakura-chan is excited."

Once again, Sasuke sighed.

"When do we go?"

"Later today!"

Sasuke raised a brow.

"You already have everything planned out!?"

Naruto nodded his head, eyes tightly shut as he smiled.

"Oh yeah!!"

Sakura clapped her hands together.

"Great. Then we'll see you...?"

Naruto looked at his watch around his right wrist.

"4 o'clock sound good?"

Sasuke and Sakura both nodded their heads as Naruto took his leave. Sasuke let his tired body hit the couch as he watched Sakura walk towards him.

She took him in her arms...

"What should we do now?"

Sasuke trailed his fingers lazily down Sakura's backside as she smiled at him, a blush staining the crests of her cheeks as he did so.

"I think I know..."

He captured her lips in a bruising kiss as she straddled him and pulled him closer than she could ever think imaginable!

The phone rang as Sasuke growled in frustration.

"What's up with all these interruptions!?"

He got off the couch and headed for the phone on the wall. Picking it up, he spoke into the receiver in a casual manner, trying his hardest not to sound pissed.

"Hello."

"Is this Uchiha Sasuke?"

Sasuke nodded, yes.

"Hai."

"This is Sakura's father, may I speak to her?"

Sasuke held out the phone towards Sakura as she looked at him in confusion.

"For me?"

He nodded.

"Its your father."

She stood quickly while taking the phone from Sasuke's hands, a bright smile on her face...

"Daddy!?"

"Hello Sakura, how are you doing?"

"Fine daddy. But where are you?"

"At the airport."

Sakura was perplexed.

"Your coming home!? When!?"

He laughed heartedly.

"I should be there either late tonight or early the next morning."

"I have some important business to attend to back home with you."

Sakura wanted to jump at the opportunity that her father was coming home but then again she had just woken up and was so tired so instead she smiled.

"What type of business?"

"I'll explain everything once I arrive home but I expect you to be there tonight to welcome your old man home... deal?"

Sakura smiled.

"Deal daddy, I'll see you when you get home..."

She hung up the phone as soon as her father had said his goodbyes; the Uchiha eyed her from his spot in the kitchen.

"What was that all about?"

She looked at him.

"My daddy's coming home!"

Sasuke almost laughed at her expression.

"I'm so... glad?" He teased.

Sakura placed a light kiss on his cheek while heading upstairs, an even brighter smile plastered on her face.

'I can't believe daddy's coming home!'

'I can't wait!!'

Upstairs, Sakura searched through her luggage, pulling out various articles of clothing as she threw them in different directions throughout the room. A smile pulled at the corner of her mouth as she extracted a wine red halter top and black skirt.

She looked at herself in the mirror, momentarily flipping her hair as she examined herself. Though she couldn't help the frown that appeared on her face, those scars and bruises! They were still visible and it only made Sakura distressed.

She believed herself to be ugly!!

Bruises decorating her creamy skin and cuts running along the flesh... She shut her eyes and went to strike the mirror if not for a hand that firmly gripped her wrist; preventing her from being able to go any further.

"Sakura..."

She wiped the fallen tears from her eyes not looking at Sasuke but instead at her feet that were planted on the floor.

"I'm ugly, Sasuke-kun..."

Her bottom lip quivered as she felt his fingers hook under her chin, forcing her to look directly at his face.

"No."

She furrowed her brows.

"You are beautiful."

It was a statement that would always remain true, in his eyes Sakura truly was a beautiful woman; no matter how many times she denied the truth...

He brought her body against his as he stroked her back lovingly.

"Sakura-hime..."

Her eyes widened a fraction as she wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her tear stained face against his muscled chest.

'I wish we could stay like this forever...'

'If only...'

"Sakura..." Sasuke mused.

She looked up at him.

The way he looked deep within her soul, it was as if he was going to confess his love for her once again but instead...

"Have you seen my hot-tub yet?"

She nearly toppled over as she let out a sigh.

"No."

'And he wrecked a perfectly good moment...'

Sakura looked into his eyes again.

"But I'm sure you'd like to show me..."

Wait!? Did he!?

Did Sasuke just catch that seductive tone in her voice when she spoke!?

It sounded so... so unlike Sakura!!

But here she was in all her glory, staring up at him with hope entering her eyes.

Sasuke shrugged his shoulders.

"I'll show you."

Sakura smiled up at him, her fingers entangling with his as she was led out of the room; blushing like mad when Sasuke began to rub her knuckles with his roughly padded fingers.

"Here we are!" He announced with much pride as he presented Sakura the hot-tub.

It was already filled with water, Sakura took note of that as she eyed the Uchiha.

"Why is it already-"

She froze when Sasuke began to strip himself, now only in his boxers as he curled his fingers under the band and slowly he pulled it down his hips until...

"Sasuke-kun!"

She covered her eyes with her hands as she screeched out his name and many, many other words. She was speaking way too fast for him to even understand, he only caught pieces of her very long sentence...

"Slow down!"

Sakura blushed furiously as she turned her back on the Uchiha.

"Put your clothes back on!!"

Sasuke almost laughed at that as he came up from behind the small girl and pulled her against his chest. Her breath had caught within her throat as she looked down at the inviting lukewarm water that filled the tub...

"Are you embarrassed, Sakura-chan?"

She tensed up when she felt his breath against her neck, sending shivers up and down her spine as she closed her eyes and begged for her heartbeat to resume its normal pace...

"No!"

He ran his hands up and down her arms, goosebumps slowly arising on her skin as she shuddered under his touch...

"I'm.. mortified..." Sakura managed to whisper out.

He laughed heartedly at the young girl.

"Here, I'll help you..."

Emerald eyes widened upon realization that Sasuke intended to undress her right here, right now!

She felt that she was too young for this but her heart was telling her that this was true, un-dying love and that everything would be fine. It wasn't like Sasuke would take her virginity by force or against her will.

He loved her and that was all Sakura needed to know.

LEMON

Her desire heightened to new and higher levels as Sasuke slowly pull the the skirt around Sakura's waist off, throwing it to the floor as his onyx eyes gazed at her creamy legs; a pair of legs that he was going to be in-between pretty soon...

He could tell that Sakura was nervous and he took that right into consideration. He stopped from removing her shirt and pulled her body close...

"You don't have to do anything..."

Sakura closed her eyes.

"But, I want this Sasuke-kun..." Her voice trailed off.

He looked up to meet her gentle gaze as she placed her hands on either side of his head and pressed her lips against his own. Passion erupted within the two as they became lost in their little world of bliss...

Sakura challenged him, her tongue running over his own as she felt strong hands rising her shirt up to reveal her wonderfully flat stomach. He pulled away from the heat-searing kiss in time to remove her shirt and toss it behind the girl...

She blushed when Sasuke's eyes roamed all over her body, the scars didn't matter to him, they never would. He would love Sakura forever!

He traced small circles on her upper arm, watching the rise and fall of her chest. She could die at the moment but she couldn't, at least not until all of this was over!!

She took in deep breaths to calm herself down as Sasuke teasingly pulled down his boxers and watched as they pooled around his feet. Sakura forced herself not to look down at Sasuke's.. well...

While she was still clad in her undergarments, Sasuke walked around stalk naked and by the looks of it, he didn't give a shit. Sakura slowly reached behind her and unclasped the bra, watching as it fell to the floor.

Sasuke could feel himself hardening, by just looking at her made his member react! He closed his eyes and lowered himself into the hot-tub, awaiting Sakura's arrival as well before anything else could progress.

He heard a little 'plop' and opened one eye, sure enough Sakura was sitting across from him blushing like mad as she forced herself to meet his gaze.

The already warm water made her body heat up as she felt Sasuke moving towards her, eyes half-lidden and hair already a little wet. Strands clinging to the nape of his neck and sides of his head...

Sakura raised herself up a little, mounds above water and for Sasuke's eyes only!

He placed light kisses all over her face as his one hand cupped a breast, squeezing it in the process which caused Sakura to let out a breathless sigh.

He smirked while running his thumb over the perked nipple, loving the expressions that came across Sakura's features the more he did it.

Her eyes closed and she moaned when she felt Sasuke's tongue running over her breast before taking the nipple into his awaiting mouth. He rolled it around before lightly grazing his teeth over it; she arched her back.

Sasuke pulled away abruptly.

"You're wounds don't hurt?"

She shook her head, no.

"Please continue, Sasuke-kun..."

Kami-sama, she looked like a true angel at the moment; eyes half-lidden and lips slightly parted as she whispered out his name...

His free hand trailed down her chest and past her stomach as he reached pink curls hiding her one and true desire. Locating it with not much trouble, Sasuke let his fingers stroke her down there as she used the hot-tub for support.

"..Sasuke-kun..."

He bit down on the junction between her shoulder and neck as she felt herself nearing something wondrous the more Sasuke carried out his ministrations. She had never before in her life felt like this, arching her back Sakura let her mouth hang wide open...

"Onegai!"

Sasuke pushed in a finger and instantly felt her inner walls clench around him deliciously as the pink haired girl moaned continuously. He pulled it out and then pushed back in until he could feel her about to climax...

"You ready?"

Sakura looked at the man, nodded her head and quickly took hold of his shoulders.

It had hurt!

When Sasuke pushed through her virgin barrier and became fully sheathed within her she couldn't help the little sob escaping her throat as she slapped a hand over her mouth to suffice all the noise.

He didn't move, didn't dare to until Sakura became adjusted. It was so hard though, her walls tightened around him, ultimately pulling him deep than ever before as she slowly began to rock her hips to attempt to take more of him in.

Placing his hands on either side of her hips, Sasuke pulled out and then quickly eased himself right back in as Sakura let out breathless whispers.

He kissed her cheek, "Sakura..."

She bit her bottom lip, her climax nearing the harder Sasuke thrust into her!

Finally, that place of bliss surrounded the younger woman as she let her head fall back, mouth parted as she reached her limit, Sasuke as well as he pressed himself against Sakura.

Placing light kisses all over her face, lastly on her lips...

They remained joined from below, Sasuke not daring to pull out just yet. Instead savoring the feel of being inside of the girl, she was so pure...

'Like an angel...'

"A little sore?" Sasuke teased as Sakura failed to move her legs.

She huffed, "Its your fault!"

Sasuke held her shoulders, trying his best to support her let alone get her to skate properly without falling down and hurting herself.

"I suck!" Sakura cried.

"Wow, I hadn't noticed..."

Sakura punched Sasuke in the arm for the smart remark as she took hold of his hand and both began to skate forwards.

"See you can do it!"

Sakura giggled, she was so happy. Nothing could steal her happiness away. Ever!

"Naruto, watch out!"

"What the-"

Sakura and Sasuke ended up colliding with the blonde haired boy, everyone going down. Sakura had been last and ended up right on top of the pile. She laughed her ass off as she stood up and took hold of Sasuke.

Too bad for Naruto, he had been the one underneath the pile of bodies as he groaned in utter pain.

"Nice going, Sasuke-teme!"

The Uchiha growled, "It was your fault, baka!"

Sakura rubbed her temples. They acted like little kids fighting over a stupid reason like the one she was currently watching.

"Are we going to skate?"

Sasuke looked over his shoulder, smiling he took hold of Sakura and the two skated off. Leaving a very sore Naruto behind...

"What the hell guys!?"

"Your wounds..."

Sakura raised a brow.

"What about them?"

"They don't hurt, do they?"

Sakura kept skating, "I'm fine Sasuke-kun."

She smiled.

"Its not like you inflicted them upon me..."

He pressed her back against the boarder of the skating rink. She smiled up at him as he captured her lips, tongue delving into her opened mouth as he memorized every inch of it.

She became lost in her thoughts and in the moment she hadn't even noticed Naruto sneaking up on them.

"Go all the way!"

They pulled apart, frowns present on their features as they began to skate after the noisy little brat known as, Uzumaki Naruto.

"Get back here!"

Naruto shook his head.

"Your going to hurt me!"

Sasuke smirked at that.

"I will but I doubt Sakura will..."

"I'm in!" She spoke quickly while raising her hand in the air.

"Dammit!!"

Everyone came to an abrupt stop, Naruto was cornered and there was no way of escaping...

"No! Guys, I'm sorry!!"

X

Sasuke was so sure about the decision he was about to make. It would change his life along with Sakura's but he felt that it was necessary; both of them were in love with each other and would continue to hold those feelings for one another...

He had previously dropped Sakura off at home, she had said that she would pick up her luggage tomorrow afternoon. He couldn't wait until then, but she had promised to be there for the candle lit dinner later tonight.

Sasuke smiled as he walked into a jewelry store. An expensive one at that! He didn't care how much it would cost him, Sakura deserved everything he had to offer! She was the one true girl that he was so keen on spending the rest of his life with...

X

As soon as Sakura walked inside her home, she heard the home phone go off as she raced towards it.

"Hello?"

"Hey sweetheart!"

"Daddy!?"

"Where are you?"

"I'm on my way to the house."

Sakura beamed, "Really!?"

Her father laughed.

"I had an early flight."

"That's wonderful."

"I'll see you when you get here, bye daddy."

Sakura hung the phone up and began to walk around her silent home, everything was once again back in order. The house had been cleaned of any blood stains and all the broken glass had been cleaned up as well as new windows and doors.

It seemed like only yesterday she had been running for her life...

She called out to her cat, no reply was given.

"Kuso, I left Cotton at Sasuke's house!"

Dialing in Sasuke's number, Sakura awaited an answer but got none.

'He must still be out.'

She shrugged her shoulders. She could always get Cotton when she went for the candle lit dinner later on in the evening...

A knock came from the front door as Sakura headed for it and opened it up to reveal the face of her father, a large suitcase in one hand while the other one pulled his only daughter close.

"Daddy!"

He kissed the top of her head, setting his suitcase down as he fully embraced his daughter.

"I missed you."

"Same!"

He looked down at her.

"Did the Uchiha kid take good care of you?"

She smiled, forcing down the blush at what had occurred earlier today...

"Yes, daddy."

He frowned as he looked around the house.

"I see the house is fixed?"

Nodding her head, Sakura spoke.

"Why don't we sit down?"

He took the suitcase and headed for the living room, Christmas tree still up, presents still under it; all of which were un-opened...

At the moment both didn't care.

"Sakura."

"I think its too dangerous here..."

She looked at him curiously.

"How so?"

"You were almost killed by that... that psycho!" He pointed out.

"I'm safe now!" She countered in a dangerous tone.

"How can you be so sure!?"

Sakura parted her lips but nothing came out...

Mr. Haruno rubbed his temples as he looked at his daughter.

"So, what are you saying?"

He took in a deep breath, this was going to devastate her...

"We're moving."

Her eyes widened as she stood from the couch.

"No! You can move! I'm staying right here!"

"Sakura..."

"Its already been decided."

She glared.

"What did you do on that business trip?"

He pulled on the collar of his shirt.

"I spoke with the boss of Sato Industries."

"And?" Sakura asked.

"We made some arrangements."

She raised a brow, "Like...?"

"Arrangements regarding your hand in marriage to the son of Sato Industries."

She nearly lost her balance.

"That will serve to bring our Industries together and form a large Super Industry."

She stumbled.

"I'm not marrying him!"

"Its already been settled."

"You will marry Sato Masaki."

She let clear tears roll down her face.

"It would make your mother so happy..."

She let those words seep in, even as she changed into a dress that she planned on wearing to Sasuke's dinner. Once there she would tell him of the news and hopefully he wouldn't hate her...

Mr. Haruno had said something about moving all the way to Shanghai! It was a long way from home and she would miss it dearly as well as all of her friends...

How could her father have done that!?

He had thought about himself before his own daughter and married her off just for a stupid Industry treaty!!

No matter how many times she wiped away her tears, more would only take their place. Fixing herself up before starting the engine of her car, Sakura pulled out of the driveway and towards Sasuke's mansion.

'Gomen.'

"You look nice, Sakura." He placed a kiss on her cheek.

She nodded and took her seat across from Sasuke. Though he seemed sort of distance, he kept playing with something in his pocket and he couldn't keep his eyes off of Sakura even as she began to eat the wonderful dinner Sasuke had prepared especially for tonight.

"Its delicious Sasuke." She tried her hardest to smile.

She knew that she had to break the dreadful news to him sooner or later; she just wanted to get it over with now...

Sasuke took hold of the velvet box within his pocket and began to extract it...

"Sakura I-"

"I'm moving!" She cut in quickly.

The velvet box fell from his grip and plummeted to the floor, Sasuke was in such a state of shock that he hadn't even noticed Sakura beginning to cry. Normally he would comfort the young girl but...

"My father chose my husband already."

Sakura looked away as she stood from her seat.

"Please don't hate me..."

He pushed back the chair, forgetting all about the ring as he came towards the crying girl. He gave her a sincere hug, he knew that he wouldn't be able to convince Mr. Haruno to let Sakura stay with him...

And now he was going to lose the most important person he had.

"My father said that we leave later tomorrow night."

"He's already packing everything up." She quickly put it.

She held in a whimper, Sasuke couldn't stop her from crying, only being there to wipe all her tears away...

"Gomen Sasuke-kun."

He caressed her cheek.

"I will always love you..."

And to prove it, he sealed it with a single kiss to her lips.

Author's Note: Heyya! Okay hears the deal. I've been working on this chapter for a number of days. 4 to be exact! Normally it would have only taken me no longer than a day but seeing as the condition I am currently in, that's not happening...

I HAD to get this chapter up since I will not be updating for at least 2-3 months or until I get the patience to sit in front of the computer for many days on end writing a single chapter...

Well goodbye for now
