Chapter 11: Birthday

When they paid for the yukata they wanted they went their separate ways.
Sakura went back to Uchiha place and took her stuff up to her room.
Well I only have a couple of hours into the party, I guess I'll just take a walk outside Sakura nodded and left.
--
Sakura was walking past the ninja academy and saw that people were making fun of Anrii and Naruto. She stood there and watched them. Finally a kid who was making fun of them saw her and told the other kids and they all ran off.
Anrii and Naruto looked towards Sakura and waved. Sakura waved back.
The bell rang giving them a signal to go in. Anrii and Naruto smiled at Sakura and ran into the school.
Sakura decided to sit at the swing for a while. While she was swinging she couldn't forget about the times she had with Gaara.
--
While she was still swinging on the swing she heard a rattle in the bushes.
"Who's there?" Sakura got off the swing and turned around holding a kunai.
"It's me" Yumi said as she came out.
"Why are you here?" Sakura asked putting the kunai away.
"I wanted to talk to you" Yumi replied looking emotionless at her.
"Why?" Sakura looked at her.
"Because I wanted to tell you something" Yumi said as she sat on the swing.
"Ok" Sakura walked to her and sat down on the ground.
"You know your brother Kuran" Yumi said looking at the ground.
"Yeah, what about him?" Sakura played with grass.
"We ran into him, they seemed to know pretty much everything about us" Yumi asked as she looked at Sakura.
"They even knew that Itou was my boyfriend and that Haruka, Rina and you are my cousins" Sakura answered looking at Yumi.
Yumi nodded.
"They said that in a couple of days there going to kill every Haruno except for Kuran" Yumi said getting off the swing and sitting beside Sakura.
"I know, it's because Kuran is also a Sakumi" Sakura looked at the ground.
"This is so hard" Yumi sighed as she rested her head on Sakura's shoulder.
"I know" Sakura rested her head on top of Yumi's head.
--
After Yumi left, Sakura walked back to the Uchiha place to get ready.
"Sakura are you ready?" Mikoto knocked on her door.
"Yeah" Sakura opened her door.
"Ok" Mikoto said as she left to go downstairs.
--
There was a knock on the Sakura's bedroom door.
"Come in" Sakura said tying her hair up.
The door opened and Itachi walked in, his hair was the same but today he was wearing a tuxedo with a black tie.
"Hi" Sakura smiled as she finished tying her hair.
"You look nice" Itachi commented leaning on her door frame.
"Thanks. You don't look so bad yourself" Sakura smiled as she played with the front of hair a bit.
Itachi walked up to her and hugged her from the behind and rested his chin on her shoulder.
Sakura blushed. "What are you doing?"
Itachi closed his eyes and inhaled her scent.
Sakura kissed his temple causing him to blush slightly.
--
Itachi and Sakura headed downstairs to Itachi's birthday party. The house was covered in linens that were draped along the walls and the ceiling.
"Do they always do this for your birthday" Sakura whispered into Itachi's ear.
Itachi nodded looking at her.
Sakura nodded and left to go find Akane.
--
"Sakura!" Akane said as Sakura found her and hug her.
"Hi" Sakura hugged her back.
"It's about time you got down here" Akane giggled pulling from the hug.
"Yeah, it was" Sakura giggled along with her.

Seems somebody put out the moon
Now the road is a minefield
I can't follow the way she moves
I can't see past the shadows
You make the darkness disappear
I feel found when you stay near
I know where I am when you are here
My way becomes so clear
"Hey Sakura, why don't you ask Itachi if he wants to dance" Akane tapped her shoulder noticing Itachi walking their way.
"No" Sakura turned around just to bumped into Itachi.
Itachi smiled. "Would you like to dance?" He extended his hand.
Sakura smiled back. "Sure"
Itachi gently grabbed her hand and pulled her gently to him.
When you're gone
Will I lose control?
You're the only road I know
You show me where to go
Who will drive my soul?
Sakura's head was rested on Itachi's shoulder as they swayed comfortably.
"You look beautiful tonight" Itachi whispered in her ear.
"Thanks. I think you've already said that" Sakura whispered back.
"I said you looked nice" Itachi whispered.
Sakura rolled her eyes.
Seems somebody burned out the signs
I can't expect the hard curves
There's no borders
There are no lines
How can I know where to turn?
You make the street lights reappear
I feel bright when you stand near
I know what I am when you are here
My place becomes so clear
Sakura had her head hurried in Itachi's shoulder throughout the whole song.
"You smell nice" Sakura inhaled his scent.
"Thanks. You don't smell so bad yourself" Itachi whispered dancing along with her.
"Thanks" Sakura smiled.
When you're gone
Will I lose control?
You're the only road I know
You show me where to go
Who will drive my soul?

Once the song ended they both pulled back.
"I'm going to go outside" Sakura said as she walked out. Itachi followed her.
--
"Here" Sakura gave him a small golden box with a pink bow once they were sitting on a bench just outside the manor.
"What is it?" Itachi looked at her confused.
"Just open it" Sakura smiled. Itachi nodded and opened the box. He smiled as he saw the necklace Sakura had brought.
"Thanks" Itachi smiled holding the chain and he looked at the ring and saw it had something engraved on it. He looked closely and saw that it had the words "Happy Birthday Itachi!" on it.
"I couldn't think of anything else" Sakura smiled looking at her hands.
"That's ok" Itachi smiled looking at the chain.
"Here" Sakura grabbed the necklace. "Let me put it on for you" She reached around his neck and practically hugged him just to put it on.
"Thanks" Itachi mumbled.
"No problem" Sakura clipped the necklace together. "There you go"
Itachi smiled and hugged her.
Sakura gasped softly and hugged him back.
Itachi pulled back and looked at her.
"What?" Sakura tilted her head.
Itachi cupped her face making Sakura blushed.
"Itachi what are you doing?" Sakura asked and Itachi gently pushed her down making her lay on bench and got on top of her.
"This" Itachi wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her.
Sakura eyes widened and she tried to push him away but he grabbed her wrist and continued to kiss her .
Sakura just closed her eyes and returned the kiss.
When they stopped the kiss Itachi lifted his head leaned his forehead against her.
"I love you" they both said at the same time staring at each other.
Aww. That ending was so cute. The song that Itachi and Sakura dance to was Drive my Soul by Lights.
