Don't yell at me, dang it! Okay, so I may have disappeared and some may have thought that I "died" again, but I have a life you know! Anyway, here is the long awaited 14th chapter of Nightmare Come True and since I realize that some of you are… angry (for good reason) ((SHUT UP OTHER ME!)) Ahem anyway… I will be posting a few oneshots to make up for my absence from this lovely community! Now on with the story!

What was she supposed to say to the man?
Yeah fate brought us together but my fist is going to separate us, you jackass!
That would work.
Completely.
This is not sarcasm.
'Yes it is.'
'Quiet, you!'
"Sakura, I do believe that the waffles are ready. Would you care for one?"
Waffles. Was that some weird code for sex? She looked around suspiciously at her surroundings. Marbled kitchen counters. Mahogany table. Neji Hyuuga making her waffles.
It looked safe enough. The others had made her paranoid she supposed.
And quite slowly she brought her attention back to the Hyuuga who was asking so politely for her to take a waffle that was made with his manly love.
Wow.
That sentence was just wrong in all manners of the word.
"Yes, I would love a waffle, thank you." She answered as quickly as she could. It wasn't like she couldn't get through this. She and Neji were on pretty good terms with each other. And they sparred on occasion. So it wasn't like him making her waffles was weird or anything… okay, yeah, it was really weird. But come on! Stranger things have happened!
The Hyuuga man walked toward her with two plates stacked with waffles, and kissed her lightly on the cheek, "Happy Anniversary, Sakura."
'I forgot my anniversary! What the hell! I forgot a present! He made me breakfast and I can't even get him a decent present! What will the girls say? WHAT WILL HIS MOTHER SAY!'
'BREATHE! YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE KILLED! …MAYBE!'
Inner's input did not help at all, the fact that Neji was looking at her like she was a crazy person did however. And she tried to think of something to calm her down. Cabbages.
How is it that those always come up!
It was then that she noticed the waffles in front of her. So many… many waffles…
'EAT, SAKURA! SAKURA MUST HAVE THE FOODZ!'
'IT'S ALIVE!'
Neji took a sip of his coffee as he watched her eat like a pig, and smiled enchantingly.
Sakura had always known that Neji was handsome. It was a fact of life. The Uchiha's and the Hyuuga's were born to make women swoon. But just like Sasuke, Neji had always been a popsicle. And therefore quite unattractive to one Miss Sakura Haruno.
But he was a gentleman. She could give him that.
And with his long brown hair and eyes as pearl white as the moon it was no wonder that women fell over themselves to be with him. And muscles. So many many muscles. That were… just as delicious as the waffles that he had made.
Sakura felt wrong comparing the two… Oh well!
Sakura shook her head quickly, trying to focus not on his amazing and flawless face but rather what he was saying from his equally distracting lips.
"Sakura, even while you eat I can't help but think that there is no one better to spend the rest of my life with."
Every Sakura in every dimension joined in a very high pitched girly scream of complete adoration at that statement.
"Neji, if you keep saying stuff like that your going to make my heart give out." She replied, trying to swallow down the rest of her waffle.
He chuckled, "No I believe that would be the waffles doing and not mine if your heart was to give out."
'Jump him. Just do it. He won't mind.'
'Leave me alone!'
'Never!'
Neji nudged her glass of water over to her silently urging her to take a sip and not choke to death on their anniversary.
She chugged down the water and tried to make it look dainty and girlish but failed within two seconds so she decided that it just wasn't worth it.
"I ran into Kakashi at the training grounds yesterday."
Ever heard of a spit take?
Yeah?
That's pretty much what happened.
"What!" She yelled, slamming her hands down on the table and standing up from her chair.
Neji took another sip of his coffee, "I said that I ran into Kakashi at the training grounds yesterday."
Sakura narrowed her eyes menacingly at the man in front of her, "What happened?"
It was more like a hiss, rather than a question. But she hated that word now that she knew that so many men could make such a sound… and others. So many others…
She had not forgotten about the incident between her and Neji when she was married to Kakashi. And it was not a moment that she would enjoy repeating.
He looked at her coolly and for a moment she wondered how easy it would be to punch him in the face.
'The ice bitch returns.'
'Just as sexy as ever.'
'I knew the prince façade wouldn't last!'
'It's not a façade, idiot. He gets this way whenever you bring up Kakashi.'
"We spoke for a moment." He said, watching her impassively. Sakura was about to impassively break his face.
"And?" She asked, knowing that there was more to the story then just their talking. There was always more to the story. Though she knew that herself at the moment had never been there for one of those times but it seemed like her 'other' self was pretty aware of the situation.
"And then we sparred."
…
…..
….
"THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!"
Sakura knew that it was wrong to fight on their anniversary. Sakura knew she shouldn't just start yelling at her husband as it would entail a fight. And she knew that she should just take it stride and make sure Neji was not injured.
Yeah. Sakura knew all of those things. She just did them anyway.
"Is he okay? Are you, okay?" She asked, walking to where he was sitting and looking him over for any injuries that she had missed before.
Neji in all his princely handsome goodness responded, "Hn."
'Oh no.'
'Sakura, calm down.'
'Oh no no no.'
'Sakura, you need to just ease back a bit, think about waffles. Nice yummy Neji made waffles.'
'…'
'Sakura?'
'…'
'DUCK AND COVER, NEJI-HOTTIE! DUCK AND COVER!'
'OH HELL NO!'
She grabbed hold of her husband's shoulders and threw him across the room. He landed as gracefully as a cat. Narrowing his eyes at her.
She dropped her head, covering her eyes with her bangs, "If I had wanted to marry an Uchiha, Neji… I WOULD HAVE!"
'You did actually... oh right, not the time. Continue on!'
And then it was like hell had broken loose in their nicely furnished kitchen.
Neji's Byakugan activated and she started throwing appliances at him.
It was quite a heated battle actually.
"The hell is wrong with you, Neji!" She screamed throwing a chair his way and while he dodged she threw the table, making it spin and fly toward him like a saucer. He barely made it out of the way, and it embedded itself in the wall.
"Nothing is wrong with me. Why can't you just tell Hatake to back off?" He responded, dodging a sharp butchers knife that he was not aware of their possessing.
Sakura paused and she could literally see the flames of anger springing about her, her eyes flashed like a hell cat's.
"You don't think I have? You don't think that whenever he tries to make a move on me I don't leave? Is that what you think, Neji?" She asked, genuinely hurt. She looked him in the eyes and knew that that wasn't what he meant. But she went on, "He was one of my best friends, Neji. And it hurts me to hurt him like this. But I do. Because I love you. Because I'm your wife. And you need to trust me."
Everything stopped for a moment and Sakura silently wondered if she should just curl up in a ball and not move for a bit butNeji crossed the space between them as if nothing could touch him. And she was in his arms and he was kissing the top of her head and they were just with each other.
"Okay, Sakura. Okay." He whispers into her hair.
'Awww…'
Sakura leans away from the embrace and looks into his eyes and then she's kissing him.
And it's delicate and romantic. Like a fairytale.
And then it's over.
'I just kissed flippin Neji Hyuuga.'
'Hell yeah. Now go have sex with him.'
'Don't ruin this for me.'
'Right. Sorry…'
"Happy Anniversary, Neji."
"Happy Anniversary, Sakura."
Darkness.
'I am content.'
'Well that's great! Now can you please just do one of these guys! They are all willing! Just… rip off their pants or something!'
'What! No!'
'Yes! Do it!'
'I will not succumb to peer pressure!'
'DO IT!'
'No!'
'Fine then! We're just going to have to settle for the next best thing!'
'What's that?'
'Behold, the king of making out!'
"Fucking bitch tried to fucking brag about how great a Jashinist she was! Ha! I fucking showed her!"
'Hate is strong word, but I really really hate you right now.'
Read and Review!
And next chapter will have a lot of cursing in it so be warned!
