Sakura's POV
"You graduated." I asked Neji who smiled and kissed my forehead. "Yes captain obvious." We had been dating for 4 months now and I won't lie I was surprised when he asked and I gave it a shot. I giggled "I'm jail bait." He smirked and tickled me making me laugh "Only till tomorrow." I wiggled free "Do you think you'll make it since you've had to attend so many meeting with your Uncle since you are to be named his successor?"
"I'll be there hell or high water I promise." I smiled and my phone rang "Hana?" I said as I answered "Okay, okay I'm going." I looked at him "Gotta go." He looked at his watch "Me too." After a hug and a kiss on my head he left and I had to pull on my shoes before grabbing my keys and taking my motorcycle the Onyx Vipers bought me I drove down to the loft where Hana stood waving at me. Pulling off my helmet I smiled "What's up girly?"
She paced a bit then sighed "Can we go to Cho's and I'll tell you the over lunch?" I nodded and waited as she got on her bike and we sped off. Once in Cho's with our food and drinks before us Hana was playing with her food "Spill it already." I said and she dropped her head onto the table with a thud making me jump slightly "It's about Gaara." I smiled "I've been waiting for this moment forever!" she held her hands up begging me to lower my voice.
"I mean I always thought he was cute but shortly before Hina and Ino transferred to AA I….I blame Ino for pointing out I like him." I laughed "Ino does that ever so often. Hell she'll say Sasuke's name to see my reaction." Hana sat back "Sasuke, but why?" I felt my smile falter and now it was my turn to play with my food. "He left before you came here but he is my first love and.." my hand rested against my chest "It doesn't matter he left and I don't think he'll be back also I'm happy in my current relationship."
She smiled and I smirked "So you and Gaara?" she groaned "I wish." We looked at each other before busting up laughing. "I won't count my chickens before they hatch but I think he likes you." she raised her brow "He treats you like a human and actual talks to you everyone else he shrugs or nods at." She glanced at me "You think?" I nodded "I can tell you now if we don't eat soon our food will become colder than a corpse."
We laughed and finished our food. As we parted ways I drove to the graveyard. As I approached the markers I felt my face fall and my heart ache. "Hey guys." I said before sitting down in front of them "Mom. Dad. Shinra. Saiya." My hand rested on my heart "Tomorrow I will be 17 and next month I'll be a senior. I have taken care of the Hospital and I'm doing fine with the schools and Neji and me are doing good but he's had to work a lot recently."
I just sat there talking about what life has been like since my last visit and soon it became darker and the sun was setting. "Also that butt head Sasu hasn't come back and I know I'm with Neji but I should've told Sasu that day how I felt. How I feel…" I looked up with a groan "Time to go home." I stood and my phone rang I looked down and smiled "What did you find for me?" after a brief report I smiled "Soon."
