Sakura Seasons II
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or most of the characters in the story. Well duh!
A/N: I guess I'm updating every two or three days now... I made up another fanfiction and it might be released when I have less homework and stress. I have extra homework which sucks and the hellhole school I go to. Plus my sister won't let me go on the computer so I can't type that much everyday. Life can sometimes suck can't it?

Chapter 11
Fresh Start
December fell upon Konoha as the snow piled up in front of their houses. Sasuke finally confronted Sakura and she blurted everything out in one night. Sakura decided that they should live together but didn't want to live in the mansion. Sakura awoke and found herself wrapped tight warmly in Sasuke's arms. She slightly smiled and peered at the clock. It was quarter past six in the morning. It was obviously the time for her to get up and go to work. She nudged Sasuke; he also had to go. He groaned and half of his face was buried in pillow. Sakura broke free of his grasp and sat up, rubbing her eyes.
"Sasuke-kun, it's time for you to get up." Sakura said softly, shaking him.
Sasuke just moaned but kept still. Sakura smirked. She pulled her face closer to his. Her lips just beside his ear. She gently blew and instantly, Sasuke was wide awake, disturbed. Sakura chuckled and got out of bed to take a shower. He glared at her but had no choice but to get up.
They took a shower, got dressed and ate breakfast and then left for work. Sasuke grabbed his cell phone as soon as Sakura left the house. He tapped impatiently on the wooden laminated table; waiting for someone to pick up.
"Hello?" Naruto greeted in a weary voice.
"What's wrong with you dobe? It's like you just got up from bed." Sasuke immediately retorted.
"Because I just did."
"Don't you have to go to work?"
"Day off."
"Ah."
"Anyway, why did you call me for? I have having a good dream?"
"What was it? Eating ramen non-stop and then end up sleeping on Hinata's lap?"
"Wha-what? How could you say that? It's not true y-you know that!"
"Cut out the lying part. And anyway, how did we get to this conversation?"
"I asked you why you called me and I was also saying that I was having a good dream and-"
"Okay, whatever. Have you got the ring?"
"Yeah, but I'm planning to propose to Hinata… on March."
"Okay then. Oh yeah, Shikamaru told me to baby-sit Shirayuki again."
"What?! Again? Last time she puked on my shirt and Hinata couldn't get the stain off!"
"Just deal with it for a few hours dobe. Anyways, see you later."
"Hey wait! Don't hang up just yet I have something to tell-" Sasuke hung up, not interested if he was saying something important. He got up and made his way to the coat closet.

After work, Sasuke went round to Naruto's house. He rang the door bell and waited patiently for him to open the door. He heard shouting and a baby laughing like mad inside. He raised an eyebrow as loud footsteps stomped; getting closer to the door. Naruto flung the door opening, looking a bit annoyed with Shirayuki crawling on the floor.
"What happened to you?" Sasuke immediately asked.
"This little thing is a devil! She has got to be named after Ino rather than Shikamaru!" Naruto yelled, letting him in.
The place was clean like there was no commotion at all. Naruto looked messed up. His clothes were crumpled and his hair was tangled. He could see a splash of lipstick at the side of his mouth and faint marks of make-up. Shirayuki giggled, guessing that Sasuke already knew what she did to Naruto. Sasuke crouched down to Shirayuki who was playfully sucking her thumb.
"Uncle Naruto looks even worse than your mother in the morning, right?" Sasuke whispered.
Shirayuki laughed and Naruto glared.
"Hey teme, don't tell lies to a three month baby." Naruto growled, wiping the lipstick off with the back of his hand.
"I'm not telling lies; it's the truth. You can even ask Hinata herself how you look like in the morning." Sasuke teased, picking Shirayuki up.
"You should see how she's like! She-"
"Do you wanna go eat now?" Sasuke asked Shirayuki.
She nodded and they left Naruto.
"He-hey! Wait!" Naruto called out.
"So has he been starving you?" Sasuke questioned the baby who was desperately reaching for her bottle.
"Uncle Nawuto ate my wunch so I didn't eat." Shirayuki replied, sucking on her bottle.
"You ate her what?" Sasuke turned his head to Naruto who was looking away. "What was your lunch?"
"Mashed cawots with peas, banana and something else I fowgot." Shirayuki replied.
Sasuke asked the question 'what' to himself, shaking his head with his eyebrow etching upwards. Naruto growled and murmured some curses. Sasuke smirked and fed the baby.
Sakura's P.O.V
"What kind hellhole operation was that?!" Sakura asked herself angrily; slouching on her seat.
Her cell phone juddered in her pocket. She looked at the caller ID. She raised an eyebrow. Why could Sasuke be calling at this time right now? It was half past twelve which meant his lunch break but he never called since he had a tight schedule.
"Hello?" Sakura said.
"Ah, Sakura, can you baby-sit Shirayuki when you get home?" Sasuke's voice called out.
"Yuki-chan? I thought Naruto was doing it."
"Naruto had a phone call just some time ago and he has to go in a few hours."
"Isn't Sayaka free in a few hours?"
"She got another wedding to plan and decorate."
"Ah… Okay then; I'll get out as soon as I can."
"Okay then, love you."
"Love you too, bye." Sakura hung up and sighed.
"Doctor Haruno; you're needed for another operation." A nurse cried out, barging through the door.
"Great, another hellhole operation. Who is it now?"
"It's Takahiro again."
"Taka-kun? Will his brother ever stops throwing coins in his mouth?"
X-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
Sakura was sitting on the couch with Shirayuki on her lap. They were watching a kids' show but not those kinds were that annoying purple dinosaur who got revived from the dead cos he fell of a tree house some years ago. (And yes, I'm talking about Barney. That was so annoying that show.) Sakura suddenly remembered something out of thin air. She tapped a finger on Shirayuki's shoulder. Her head spun round, acknowledging the tap.
"Hey, do you wanna see your parents' wedding?" Sakura playfully grinned.
Shirayuki nodded as she was removed from Sakura's lap. The door opened, revealing Sasuke.
"What you doing?" He asked, joining Shirayuki on the couch.
"You should at least say that you're home before you ask any questions." Sakura blandly told off, getting the tape into the player.
She leapt on the couch and sat with her legs crossed and played the video. It flickered on and the sound of an organ could be heard. Everything was dark and they were wondering why.
"Tenten! Take the cap off!" Hinata scolded.
"What? Oops…" Tenten's voice called out.
Everything could be seen now. The aisle, the people who were sitting down and Shikamaru at the front.
"I'm not good at filming. Sayaka, can you take over?" Tenten moaned.
"Fine whatever." Sayaka accepted as she turned the camera to the door.
The doors were still and Ino didn't come out yet. They heard coughing but no Ino. They soon heard a person stand up. Tenten and Hinata walked to the door to check Ino. They quickly ran back to their seats as the bride opened the doors with her white dress, holding the bouquet. Her father was standing next to her, her arm hung round his. Ino stepped on the front of the church and turned to Shikamaru. Sakura pressed the fast forward button and they ended up when the mass was ending.
"Why'd you move here?" Sasuke asked.
"You'll see." Sakura smirked.
It was the scene when Shikamaru had to kiss Ino. The camera turned to Naruto who seemed to be getting something out of his pocket.
"Naruto, what are you doing?!" Tenten whispered to Naruto as quietly as she could but he couldn't hear her.
He got a small block of cheese from his pocket. His face was puzzled but he shrugged it off. He raised his arm and threw the cheese. The camera moved with the cheese and stopped when it got back to Shikamaru and Ino. The couple were leaning at each other and the cheese bounced off Shikamaru's head. They parted and they turned their heads at Naruto. The camera turned back to Naruto. Sakura hit the rewind button. They watched the cheese bouncing off Shikamaru's head over and over again. Shirayuki laughed.
"Your mother got angry at Uncle Naruto." Sakura spoke, stroking her hair.
"I remember papa saying something like that to me once." Shirayuki responded, reaching for her bottle.
Sakura pressed the fast forward button and stopped at the scene when Ino was throwing the bouquet. The girls were behind Ino as she threw it up in the air. The bouquet twirled in the air, the petals from the flowers were separating. It landed on Tenten's hands. From the camera it looked like she was a ghost. She almost disappeared from the video. The rest of the girls crowded round her.
"Oi, guys! I know who caught the bouquet." Shikamaru called out from the background.
They could hear footsteps. And a bit of heavy breathing.
"Neji…" Shikamaru began.
They cold hear screaming from the crowd of girls. The scream belongs to Tenten. Behind her voice were the boys talking but they couldn't hear what they were saying.
"Whoa, Neji's gone stiff. I've never seen this before." Naruto's voice called out.
"Don't even think about taking a picture Naruto." Neji growled and they heard slapping.
"Why does everyone pick on me?" Naruto whined and they heard footsteps again.
"Oh shit! The camera's still on!" Naruto yelled and the camera shook a bit. "Thank goodness it didn't run out of battery."
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
A month passed by. Sakura was once again baby-sitting Shirayuki. It was late at night. Ino had to stay over night somewhere for her clothes to be sold at a store and Shikamaru had to stay in the office late since his book had to be due tomorrow so he couldn't waste time. Sakura stood up from the sofa and left Sasuke and Shirayuki to watch a comedy (child-friendly) movie.) She walked into the kitchen and got out a chopping board. She pondered through the cupboards to find something to eat. Suddenly, her phone rang. She picked it up, puzzled.
"Hello?" Sakura asked in a slow questioning voice.
"Sakura, you have to come to the hospital as fast as you can! Tenten just- well I don't really know what happened just go to the hospital!" Sayaka's voice shrieked.
"Wha-what?! Is it Konoha Hospital?"
"Yes, of course, you work there duh! J-just go to the goddamn hospital!"
"Right!"
Sakura hung up immediately and ran to the living room.
"Sasuke-kun, I have to go to the hospital. Tenten has an emergency." Sakura informed, getting her white coat that was lying on the side of the sofa.
"Did her water break?" Sasuke questioned.
"I don't know I just have to go. I'll see you later, bye!" Sakura dashed off through the door before Sasuke could say anything else. She cautiously drove to the hospital as fast as she could without getting caught by the police of course.
She skidded through the doors and soon the nurses rushed to crowd round her.
"Mrs Hyuuga has a baby arriving, we need you to help." One of the nurses reminded, giving her gloves, a mask and those other things.
"Okay, I got it." Sakura said in a serious voice, putting on her gloves.
As she passed the hallway she saw Sayaka, Sai and Neji waiting on the chairs.
"I'll see you guys later okay." Sakura smiled before walking into the room.
"I have a bad feeling about his…" Neji moaned.
"Hey, there's Naruto and Hinata." Sayaka said, waving to the said couple.
"Is Tenten giving birth?!" Naruto demanded.
"Don't ask me the questions man! He dragged me here." Sayaka spluttered.
"I hope Tenten's alright. She did have bad results on her last check up." Hinata whined; her hands to her mouth and her eyes glued to the door.
They heard screaming from inside. They staggered back in surprise.
"Push Tenten! Push god dammit!" Sakura's voice bellowed.
They shuddered, actually not wanting to go in that hot stuffy room. Another figure loomed over them. Sasuke arrived, holding Shirayuki in his hands.
"Where's Tenten obaa-san?" Shirayuki asked, looking at the troubled people.
(A/N: Obaa-san means auntie but I think I'm gonna get it confused with obaa-chan which is old lady or grandma but another meaning of obaa-san is also old lady so you might wanna be careful when you see those words in my fanfic.)
Neji fainted in his seat. Everyone rushed to him.
"I didn't know Neji could be this… you know." Naruto stated, helping him back on his seat.
"IT'S NOT THE TIME TO BE TALKING LIKE THAT IDIOT!" A familiar voice called out.
"Mama!" Shirayuki called out, stretching her arms.
"Yuki-chan!" Ino called back, taking her daughter away from Sasuke.
Shikamaru appeared behind her, his hands shoved in his pockets as if nothing urgent was happening.
"Ino, how the hell did you get here?!" Naruto blathered.
"That question isn't important right now; I need to be thinking how Tenten's feeling right now." Ino replied back, giving him a strange look.
They heard a scream which belonged to Tenten.
"Now I know she's not feeling alright." Ino stated, stepping back.
"Tenten, just keep going!" Sakura's voice shouted angrily and wearily.
"What if Tenten dies when she's giving birth?" Naruto asked dryly.
Neji fainted again.
"Shut your pie hole Naruto! Of course she'll be alright!" Ino cried back, punching him on the head.
Hinata fiddled with her fingers. She did mention that she had a bad result on her last check-up. The chances of thing that fatal were 50 percent. She slumped down in a seat and joined her hand together nervously on her lap.

A/N: Was that a cliffie?
Sakura: No.

Me: He's the meanest of them all and Orochimaru –shudders- is gay.
Naruto: How?
Me: Tch, like I'll answer that question. I don't even know if I should let Tenten live.
Tenten: LET ME LIVE PLEASE!!!
Me: HOW THE FUCK DID YOU GET HERE?! –pulls out a machine gun.-

Rest of the Naruto cast: …
Me: Okay… -shuffles away from them- Reviews are much appreciated!

Chapter 12 – Events
The next morning, Sakura came into the hospital bright and early. She came in with her white coat flailing behind her and she seemed to be struggling getting something out if her handbag as she walked. She turned a corner on the second floor and bumped into someone but luckily, she didn't loose her things. She picked herself off from the floor and looked up, her hand stretching out to the person she had bumped into.
"K-Karin?" Sakura spoke, her expression looking as confused as ever.
Karin just gave her a so-what look and picked herself from the ground by herself. She brushed off whatever dust or dirt that had collected on her clothes and then cleared her fringe.
"Sakura." She just straight forwardly said, getting her purse from the floor.
"Why are you here?" Sakura asked.
"That's supposed to be my question," Karin said with a tiny glare but she suppressed it. "So you work here huh?"
"Yeah but why are you here?"
"Just looking after Miyako after an accident on a tournament. She tripped and sprained her ankle."
"Oh right… Anyways, good luck to her and I gotta go so see you round."
Sakura waved her fingers and walked off professionally. Karin looked at her in a confused way. She then shook her head while going back into Miyako's room. She sat down with one leg on top of the other. She grabbed her nail file out of her bag and started to do her nails.
"Still can't find Minori huh?" Miyako predicted.
"Your dumbass cousin has no sense of direction at all." Karin replied, not paying much attention.
"Who'd you meet outside? I though I heard a voice that was familiar."
"Some girl named Haruno Sakura; Sasuke-kun dumped me for her."
"It's her again."
Miyako glared at a blank space. A few moments later, they heard footsteps and eventually Minori appeared.
"Did I miss much?" He immediately asked while coming in and snatching a chair.
