A Week Together
After Ino left and Karin went upstairs to her room. Sasuke walked outside to Sakura:
Sasuke set all his papers aside and stood up to walk outside, Juugo who was reading a paperback novel (ooh I wonder which one;)) stared over the pages and looked at Sasuke.
"You know she might want to be left alone right now."
Sasuke was going to glare at Juugo but he held up a hand to stop him.
"Im just saying if she didn't want to come in maybe she wanted to be alone."
Sasuke shook his head, it was probably true but his stomach twisted into knots thinking of leaving Sakura by herself. He knew why he was like this and he looked up at Juugo who was waiting. Juugo watched something in Sasuke's eyes change.
"I've left her alone for too long."
And he walked out to the backyard to see Sakura sitting on the stone bench that he had put in just for Sakura. As he got closer he could see small clear streaks running down her face and he ran over to the crying Sakura. Sakura was sobbing what was she going to do!?! She didn't want to do this, she wanted to be with Sasuke. She loved him!!! And stupid Itachi wont let her because she didn't want anyone to get hurt because of her. Sakura felt someone pick her up and tuck her head under his chin. It was Sasuke she figured it out right as he started to stroke her hair and rock her back and forth in his arms.
"Shh… its alright Sakura."
Sasuke murmured as Sakura sobbed on Sasuke's favorite shirt, though he really didn't care at the moment. The thing he wanted right now was for Sakura to stop crying and to see her smile again. That beautiful smile that lit up her whole face that actually got him to smile.
"Sakura its okay."
Sakura seemed to be calming down and she shook her head.
"I-its not okay, it wont ever be okay. Not until I either die or Itachi finally takes me."
Sakura felt Sasuke tense up and a low growl escape his lips as he pulled slightly away from Sakura.
"Sakura…I will never let anything happen to you. I -"
"SASUKE-KUN!!!!"
Karin's voice made Sasuke shiver inwardly and he snapped his head up to give a death glare at Karin.
"What do you want?"
Sasuke asked irritated. (Well duh stupid Karin got in the way!!!) Karin didn't look into Sasuke's eyes but instead stared at Sakura.
"I just wanted to tell you that a package came for Sakura…It looks like its from a secret admirer."
Karin threw the package to Sasuke who easily caught it and looked the package over. It was a box, a silver box. (Ahhhhh shiny!!!)
"Let me have it."
Sakura made sure that she avoided the word "see" and took the box out of Sasuke's hands. Karin had secretly made her way over to the small group and looked over Sakura's shoulder as she started to open the box. After Sakura opened the box Karin gave a small gasp which freaked Sakura out because she didn't have a clue as to what was in the box. I mean for all she knew it could be a severed head!!!
"What, what is it?!?"
"Um here."
Karin reached over and took what was in the box and slipped it into Sakura's small, delicate hands. (Yeah even Karin has figured out how fragile looking Sakura looks.) Sakura frowned and kept her hand tracing over the object.
"I-it feels like a mask."
"It's like the most beautiful mask I have ever seen in my entire life."
Karin stated looking at the mask. (K im not really going to describe it other than that it is black and white with some feathers…when the time comes I will describe what it looks like.)
"Wait, there's a note."
Sasuke muttered looking at the note with a death glare, that if possible would make the paper disintegrate. Karin snatched the note up all excited about this secret admirer.
"The note says "My dear cherry blossom I have made this mask especially for you to wear at the up coming Sakura festival which is at the time of your birthday. I will be there to meet you face to face. Love a bleeding heart…How romantic, you have to wear that mask for your birthday Sakura!"
Karin shouted at the top of her lungs putting everything neatly into the silver box.
"Oh we need to go shopping and find that perfect dress for you to wear. Come on we have so much to do."
Karin squealed pulling Sakura up to her feet but she seemed dazed.
"Why does that sound so familiar…bleeding heart."
