He lied. Completely. Totally lied.

" OMG! Really Sasuke-kun?" Karin clattered him with her arms as he let out a sigh of total regret and annoyance. This was the only way he couldn't cause Sakura any harm or pain. This is the way he couldn't loose control. This is the only way to lock those emotions he felt for her. If he had her, he couldn't care for her, or sastify her love needs, comfort, and support. He spared a glance at the pink princess.

Her eyes lowered as her fork swayed the food back and forth. Whatever Sasuke was, he wasn't stupid. He knew she held feelings for him. It just wasnt right. Whatever he wanted, he wanted her to be happy, and she clearly wasn't happy when he was here.

"Mmm..may I be excused?" Her voice hesitated as she spared a glance at Daichi.

"Is everything okay, Sakura? Are you okay? I can order them to make more food if you aren't sastified." Daichi asked with concern in his orbs, as his hand touched hers. She flinched a bit from the unexpected touch.

"No. Everything is wonderful. I just have a headache. It's nothing big." She smiled, or faked a smile. Daichi's eyes lowered and simply nodded before she walked towards the door, but suddenly turned around and faked a smile.

" I hope everyone has a great evening." With that she walked off. The room turned silent except for the fact Karin kept rambling to Sasuke, but everyone simply ignored her and glared instead, as her manners and actions got out of hand.

Everyone ate quickly in silence. Not too soon everyone was finished, and headed their seperate ways. Except Karin who was completely lost, even Sasuke ditched her, and the maids, and the bulters. So she spent countless hours running aroundd the house.


Knock.

"Sakura."

"...."

"Sakura."

Knock.

" What do you want Naruto?"

" I need to talk to you."

He heard a sigh before the door opened, with a small click.

"May I come in?"

She gave a small nod before the blonde headed ninja made his way in.

"Sakura I have something to tell you."


Dark. Silence as she heard the mini scurries of feet and claws on the floor. Soon she fumbled her way in the darkness and found the light switch.

"Ewwwwwwwwww! That Bitch gave me this room!?" Karin squealed as the lights revealed the dusty abandoned room.

Clank.

"SASUKE-KUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


The pink headed beauty gently placed herself on her bed, as Naruto grabbed a chair and placed it next to her bed.

" Sakura..." His voice lingered as he caught the slight dampness on her pillow. His eyes quickly directed to her eyes. Streaks of dried tears ran down her face. Her eyes red and swollen.

She played with her fingers as her eyes caught his lingering to her lap.

"Naruto... say it. Just say it." Her voice quivered, her body shook as if she didn't want to cry.

"Sakura..." He reached out for her and pulled her into a hug, " It's okay."

Sakura was a sister to him. He hated seeing her cry or in pain. She suffered enough. She wasn't in love Daichi, but she forces herself to in order to move on from Sasuke. He knows. She spills everything to him and he does the same. They're best friends. He felt her pain... her suffering. She was suffering. Everything was alright until he came here. Fake. Fake smiles, fake laughs, nothing was like before. In their Genin days everything was fun. Happy. Joyful.

He heard her gave out a wail before she broke down.

" Naruto-kun, I'm so stupid. I don't want to love him. I don't. It hurts. I want to love Daichi, but now, he's not the same. He's turned into someone I don't know. He doesn't care for me. No one does." Her voice was in pain, and needed to be heard. He wanted to say something... but nothing came out. Her heart was totured.

"Do you know how hard it is to love someone that you know will never return it back?" Her sobs increased, " I promised I won't cry for him."

"Sakura-chan, I bet he loves you! I mean who woul-"

"Naruto. You've been telling me that since day one. He doesn't love me. He doesn't even like me. Everyone has their happy ending, Naruto. You, Ino, Hinata, Shikamaru, Tenten, Neji, Sasuke, and Karin. They have someone...where's mine? Where's my prince? Why is it so hard for me?" She quickly cut him off with the sobs.

"You cry yourself to sleep every night...don't you?" He asked and in response he felt her nod. He supported her, like a big brother. He stayed their til he heard her breathing silence, and her sobs decreased. He gently tucked her in, but something caught his eye.

Her arms... scars of pain. It pained him. It wasn't much...but even one was alot. At least 3 on each arm. The emotions ran wild in him. Anger, sadness, and pain. He gave her one more glance before walking out to one person and one person only.


Sasuke laid awake. Memories, flashbacks replayed in his head.

The door of being slammed open was heard as Sasuke guard was up, but saw it was only Naruto. His guard lowered as he fell back on his bed again.

"What dobe?" he said emotionally. Naruto didn't say anything, but came more towards him before blowing a punch to his gut.

"What the hell!" Sasuke clutched his stomach a bit... easing the little pain off a bit.

"What the hell? Don't what the hell me! Do you know what you did to Sakura?" His eyes filled with anger and pain as he blew another punch to his gut again. Sasuke quickly blocked it.

"Naruto, calm down!" Sasuke demanded as Naruto found himself against the wall, " What happened?"

Naruto sighed and slide down the wall, " She's in pain Sasuke. Big pain. She cries herself to sleep everyday. I had to comfort her tonight. I almost cried Sasuke. The way she put things together and the way she acted it pained me. I usually have something to say, but this time...she beat it. She left me speechless... I had no idea what to say."

Sasuke eyes shifted.

" Do you like her?" Naruto asked looking straight into the Uchiha's eyes, trying to read some type of emotion.

Sasuke's barrier came crashing as he deeply exhaled before answering.

"No, I don't like her. I love her." His eyes darted to the other direction of the room before Naruto gave a small smile.

"Tell her,Sasuke. She needs to hear it. She needs to know you care. You have to give up your pride to love. Make her happy Sasuke. She needs that." Naruto put a hand on Sasuke's shoulder. Sasuke gave an understanding nod before heading out the door.


Her door. Closed with all it's glory. He took a breather before deciding wheather to knock or not. But as a Uchiha he turned the knob quietly to uncover his little pink angel. Her hair was mess. Her dress shirt rugged and about. Tear streaks still stained her face. To top it all off, the moon shined it's glow on her. Beautiful... Sasuke was breathless.

He took a seat next to her. Inhaling her scent and beauty. He traced his fingers gently down her facial features brushing off the strands of hair in her way. She flinched as she shifted in her sleep, mumbling something not understanding.

Clank.

Sasuke's attention quickly detected to the object that hit the floor.

Sakura's Diary/Journal

It label. It didn't look anything like a princess. It looked more depressing. He quietly picked it up and out of curiousity he flipped through the pages, until something caught his eye. Blood.

Dear Diary,

I had another depressing night. Sasuke brung another girl in the village.
She must be stronger then me. She also must be prettier too.

Here he saw tear stains laying here. As his heart wrenched.

Diary...where's my happy ending? Why does everyone get one but me?
Was love made for a person like me? Why was a born like this? I'm not...
I'll never be good for him. I still love him.

Red stained the rest. Sasuke's heart clenched more, twisting, turning in many ways. It pained him. It was all his fault. He needs to repay her.

"S-Sasuke-kun?" The voice startled and scared. Sakura was awake, " Hey! Why do you have my diary?" She reached out to grab it only to be pulled in.

His hand grasped hers as he pulled her in for a kiss.
