"D-does it fit, Sakura-san?"
Across the room, the Uchiha bride twirled to find Naruto's wife standing on the doorway, smiling at her. Her long indigo hair neatly combed behind her; snow-white eyes gleaming at her with kindness. She wore a white kimono designed with intricate floral patterns of purple on the sleeves and bottom held by a white obi.
"Hai. Arigatou ne?" Sakura replied with a smile. Her presence, Hinata's, was welcoming that she felt comfortable with her. Scanning her dress again, which was a long sleeved nightgown that reached down to her ankles and was made of silk; she gave out a laugh and went towards the pearl-eyed girl. She admired the simple interior design of the house that had four rooms at the second floor, one which was for guests' like her and Sasuke. The master's bedroom was at the farthest back and where she is currently, the two other rooms adjacent to it, probably useful when the kids come along. She hasn't explored the first floor yet, for she fell asleep while Sasuke carried her.
"So h-how's Uchiha-san's t-training?" Hinata asked as they walked towards the guests' room. She stared at Sakura who was blushing furiously and was having a hard time answering.
"W-well… if Hide-And-Seek with a… sick twist is normal for… vampires in training, then I guess its fine."
The girl giggled at her response, causing Sakura to laugh as well. "But you know, H-hinata-san, it did help me."
"I-I'm glad to h-hear that, S-sakura-san. N-naruto-kun often tells me about you and how S-sasuke-san changes behavior."
"Oh… that." She flashed her a sheepish smile and became embarrassed, knowing what kind of behavior Sasuke has whenever she was around him thanks to Naruto's advice during her training.
"And please, just call me Sakura."
They entered a spacious empty room and Sakura assumed it was where they'd be spending the night. It was simple; a bed good for the two of them was placed in the middle with a small table at the side with a lamp. To its left was a wardrobe and opposite it was a room, the door slightly ajar and Sakura observed the tiled floor. Bathroom. She thought.
"It seems I-I have to c-clean the room a bit." Hinata remarked, noting a few cobwebs hanging in the corners.
"Let me assist you, Hinata-chan." She suggested, but the other female shook her head. "I-I'm fine by myself, Sakura-chan. It's rude to have the guest clean our mess." She had a small smile on her face and then continued, "I h-have a feeling that S-sasuke-san needs you at this moment."
"Don't you dare give me a 'Hn' bastard! You don't know how much my fists are itching to collide with your face."
Reaching the living room where Naruto and Sasuke 'talked' if that's what they call it for it was only the blond who actually spoke words while the Uchiha only responded in uninterested grunts with his eyes closed. Sakura heard the conversation as she descended from the stairs, giggling mutedly while hearing Naruto's complaints. She watched them behind the wall, stealing glances every few moments wondering when she could go there and sit beside Sasuke. She didn't know what urged her to. It was sudden that she wanted to be with him and fall asleep in his arms. Maybe it was only her exhaustion. She can feel her body begging for rest but why specifically in his arms? The thought sent her cheeks to flame up and when she peeked again, he seemed restless as she observed him. His appearance told Naruto that he wasn't up for any conversations and the blond seemed clueless about it. Sighing, she decided to just stay back in the room Hinata had brought her to change and take a short nap. Glancing for the last time, she was about to turn away when he called her.
"I know you're there Sakura."
The sound of his amused voice halted her actions. She can never escape him can she? She gulped nervously at his statement, as her knees trembled afraid she had just disturbed them. Standing stiffly, the girl tried to gain her composure for her heart has now began punching her ribcage. She took a deep breath, hesitantly revealing herself at the male vampires who stared at her with intense that she unconsciously fiddled the hem of her shirt while making her way towards them.
"Hey there Sakura-chan! Where's Hinata-chan?" Naruto greeted while cocking his head to his side looking for the snow-eyed female. To his dismay, the hallway behind Sakura was empty and he wondered where Hinata had gone off to.
"Uhm, she said that she'll be preparing the guest's room." Sakura replied; Naruto nodding at her response as he sunk back on the couch, sighing heavily like he just came from some tiring journey. His azure eyes squinted at the Uchiha who still gazed at the rosette playfully. His hand rose, and made a gesture to sit beside him which caused a blush to instantly appear on her cheeks. He saw Sakura walked slowly towards the bigger sofa opposite him and sat tautly beside Sasuke. It seems Sakura-chan still thinks of Teme as a rapist. He thought, frowning in disappointment.
"Did you have enough sleep?"
Sakura only shook her head as a response, her eyes avoiding his gaze as her blush deepened. Sleeping alone in an unfamiliar bedroom made her fretful. She heard a grunt emit from him as she relaxed, looking down and gently closing her eyes. Their previous activity drained all her energy that the only thing she wanted to do was rest. And it seemed that her vampire prince noted this that she found herself sitting on his lap, blinking twice at the startling action. Her whole body became rigid, realizing that they weren't alone. It made her embarrassed for Naruto was still there, watching their small scene in great clarity. As her head rested on his chest where no sound of a single beat of his heart can be heard, she tried her best to ease away her tension. Yet when he stroked her hair soothingly, it surprisingly made her feel at ease. Her worries and anxiety were dissipating with his strokes working like entrancing spells on her as she slowly felt languid; her system close to shutting down and be engulfed in solemn darkness. She had missed this, especially by her father who never forgets to pat her while she sleeps. It made her feel like she was a child again and something special.
"Sasuke-kun?" Her eyelids became heavy, her voice a soft whisper.
"Sleep." He said firmly.
The young vampire heir smirked when the girl finally relaxed, involuntarily nuzzling him when she dozed off. He observed the even rise and fall of her chest and her warm breaths that seeped through the thin fabric of his shirt.
"You know Sasuke-teme," Naruto started, the Uchiha vampire instantly looking at him. "Did you just drug her again?" His eyebrows furrowed as he asked, seeing the way Sakura fell asleep. But the look on his friend's face was priceless when he soothed her to sleep. The once cold black orbs that intimidate every eye in contact with it alleviated. Naruto wondered if he was still facing the Sasuke who, aside from literally heartless, has never shown any form of emotion besides anger.
"She's tired." Sasuke replied factly.
The blond shrugged, "Well, who wouldn't get tired at your atrocious behavior when having sex? I pity Sakura-chan for enduring all your animalistic behavi – "
"Get over it, Naruto. You're just jealous." The raven-haired vampire shot back flatly, rolling his eyes.
"Jealous? Jealous of what?"
Sasuke scoffed at the blond. "Admit it. Hiashi still hasn't given you the permission to touch her daughter –"
"Yet, and I'm damn proud that I'm gifted with patience unlike you. I bet you probably forced Sakura-chan, or maybe even rape her." Naruto tsk-ed. He shook his head in disappointment, "And I thought you were a hormone-less vampire whose only addiction at that time was electrifying my ass."
By the time he looked up again to gaze at Sasuke, he found himself staring at the familiar blood red eyes of his Sharingan that eyed him with a dangerous glint. He only pouted in response, increasing the glare's intensity. It was threatening to pull him into the young heir's own inferno.
"You are lucky that Sakura is here. Or else…"
Everything was painted in black, creating a world of emptiness. She found herself wandering around the dark space that imprisoned her, feeling hopeless as she walked endlessly at the unknown place. She felt like a mouse trapped inside a box, vainly looking for an escape from her captors; away from the sickening experiments they would bring her. The thought caused her strides to become hurried, realizing the darkness that engulfed her was infinite; no end. Her ounce of bravery slowly vanished, knowing she was deserted. She prayed that this was only a dream, an illusion her mind had in store for her.
"Sakura Haruno… Or should I say… Uchiha."
She stopped and immediately turned to look for the owner of the deep masculine voice that echoed in the empty space. The voice sounded rapt and teasing, sending chills crawling on her skin. She can feel him grinning wickedly behind the shadows, watching her movements.
"W-who-"
"Forgotten me already in a short span of time?"
She bit her lip. So they have met, but when?
"I – "
He chuckled. "My identity or the reason why you are here doesn't matter." He spoke smugly. "You will know me soon enough and its purpose; when the time for me to claim back what is supposed to be mine arrives. I wonder…"
Sakura felt confused at his words. Claim what is his?
"I wonder… who you would choose to live with for eternity and willingly surrender to die as you watch before your eyes." It sounded like he was speaking to himself, yet was intended for her to hear.
"W-what are you saying?" She asked, looking around to find the man that caused her to be trapped in this unfamiliar place. "W-what do you want from me? Why are you causing me this?"
"You play an important role in my plan, Sakura."
The revelation made her knees tremble in fear. Plan… what plan could it be? Her mind began to show her images of dying people that continuously shouted her name in sorrow; their bodies were slowly eaten by flames whilst she stood stiffly before them, eyes widened in horror. She shook away the dreadful idea; her eyes now brimmed with unshed tears. And then a new scene came into view. She tried to grasp the blurry image, recognizing a small boy that seemed to call her in panic. His little arms reaching out for her, but her body remained fastened on the ground. She fell on her knees, quivering as she sobbed. All she could do was nothing. And it made her cringe.
"N-no… T-this can't… this can't be happening…"
The little boy's cry pounded in her ears and it made her heart ache awfully, as though wires were clamped around it. "S-stop it… Please!"
His vicious chuckle rang softly until slowly, it became louder, deafening her. She trembled violently in fear, wishing, hoping she would wake up from her nightmare.
"Sakura."
"Sakura."
The moment her eyes saw his face, the one that always promised her safety, she flung herself at him. Her arms swiftly wrapped around and held onto him as tightly as she could, while she cried that completely surprised him. He could sense her relief when their eyes met, and how much comfort she needs, her body quivering as she hugged him that caused him to embrace and hush her. His skin tingled as he felt her tears smear his bare shoulder. Seeing her twitch restlessly in her sleep alerted him and he was grateful he woke her up. It was rare for her to have nightmares for she'd always been a peaceful sleeper.
"Sakura…" He spoke softly, stroking her back to calm the girl. The sound of her whimpers affected him that his soft side had to surface, one that was reserved for her alone.
"D-don't… don't leave me…" Her voice was hoarse as she spoke in between sobs. She felt so much relief that she broke into a cry when she saw Sasuke yet the nightmare still haunted her. "Please…" She pleaded in the faintest voice.
"I won't." He nuzzled her hair and pulled her closer to him. "Never." Seeing her in this state caused a foreign emotion to stir up in his system and he never liked a bit of it.
"T-thank you, S-sasuke-kun." She sniffled, but a smile made way to her face. Thank you.
~ ( O _ O ) ~
The entire night, Sasuke was awake, never keeping his eyes off the sleeping girl. Her head lay on his chest, breathing calmly and her fingers entwined with his. He closed his eyes and heaved out a sigh. It took a long while before she was dragged back into her dreamland, he recalled; cradling her in his arms while she sniffled and snuggled closer to him. She even insisted that they sleep at the same time, making him smirk at the memory, worried about his condition the next day but he strongly denied her request… in his mind. Hence pretending to be asleep as he waits for Sakura to drift away from reality.
He made a vow that that is the first and last time he'd see her cry. He would rather see her smile to someone else than be greeted with her emerald orbs glistening with tears and fear.
"Hey Hinata-chan…"
"W-what is it N-naruto-kun?
His azure eyes stared hard at the ceiling, pondering on the question he was about to ask his wife. It bothered him for a while now, after Sasuke, 'That asshole.' He screamed mentally. His best friend knew how to hit his nerves and his earlier statement about his relationship with Hinata hasn't reached yet the point where he can finally release his sinful urges on the innocent girl made him insecure. He frowned. That old man shouldn't be interfering…
"I was just wondering," He started, still not facing Hinata who suddenly felt nervous. Naruto was acting a bit strangely and to hear him speak in such serious tone told her it was urgent. "When can I make love to you?"
The girl was taken aback at the question, blushing and sweating furiously for he stated it like it was a normal question which it is but not in her case. Her whole body stiffened and it became so much harder for her to breathe especially in her current position. She was just lying on top of him.
"I – Uhmm…" She tried her best not to stammer for he was now looking at her with innocent eyes. His question was too much to handle. Yet she cannot blame him for asking. Indeed, her father was too overprotective of her and belittling the capabilities of her dearest but the moment she had convinced him to let Naruto take her hand in marriage, she made him swore that he will not interfere in their lives. It seems Hiashi had anticipated this and had already forewarned Naruto to never touch her until he gave him his permission. It didn't surprise her when they only shared passionate kisses that night.
"No worries Hinata-chan! I'm not really forcing you to do it now, but I'm just wondering when can I finally express that I love you damn so much?" He had his foxy grin carved in his face and it never failed to make her flush.
"Uhm… A-ano… N-naruto-kun…" She summoned up all her courage, deciding to tell him the truth. He'd waited too much long. "A-actually… m-my father's threat… is… isn't true." She closed her eyes when she felt him stiffen.
"Eh? T-then that m-means –"
"F-forgive me, N-naruto-kun… I-I didn't mean t-to – "
"Hush Hinata-chan! No time for talk. Let's do it!"
