Chapter 13

*Disclaimer I do not own Naruto

Sakura was walking around her new home. She bumped into Karin.

"Excuse you!"

What's her deal?

Sakura just ignored her. She continued to walk and this frustrated Karin. Karin didn't like to be ignored, so she spoke up once more. "I said excuse you."

Sakura was uninterested, but entertained her anyways. She turned around with a blank face, "I heard you."

Karin couldn't believe her ears.

"Come again?"

"I said I heard you."

"No that's where you're wrong."

"Oh really?"

"I heard Sasuke yell last night. You better not be hurting him or I'll hurt you!"

She doesn't know how wrong she is.

"You have no idea."

"I don't even know why Sasuke brought you here when he can have me instead. I mean look at you. Who wants you. You have no boobs! It's all about the body."

Sakura looked down at her chest.

She's right. I have nothing compared to her.

Sakura was a little disappointed in how right Karin was. She turned around and walked away as fast as she could. Karin didn't say anything because she knew she had won. Sakura hurried back to Sasuke's room. He was getting dressed.

"Where were you when I woke up?"

"I just thought I would look around."

"How was it?"

Sakura mumbled, "Disappointing.."

"What?"

"I said great."

"Ahh."

"Where are you going?"

"To train."

"What will I do?"

"You can come watch me."

I was thinking you would ask me to join... Guess not...

Sakura just smiled and shook her head. The left his lair and walked for a good mile until they reached a clearing. Sasuke started setting up and Sakura sat down and watched him.

This is so boring! I should've stayed in Konoha. I'm about to go back. Why did I come? Being lonely can't be that bad.

"Sakura!"

"Yes?"

"Care to join me?"

Sakura jumped up and said yes.

Maybe I spoke too soon.

Sakura got up happily. They trained all morning until the afternoon. Both were tired and sweaty. They came inside smiling and laughing over dumb things they did. When Sasuke opened the door for Sakura, Karin was standing there looking angrier then ever. She pushed Sakura. Sakura was off guard so she fell. She got up and walked right passed her.

They say silence and kindness are the best silent killers.

Karin was appalled that she didn't say or do anything. Sasuke just starred at Karin. She decided to speak, "Sasuke, now that she's gone maybe we can go training together. Just me and you." He looked at her in disgust he didn't have to say anything for her to know the answer. Karin ran off and Sasuke walked to his room. He opened the door and saw Sakura crying. He just started undressing to take a bath and then he left.

He didn't even say anything. He barely looked my way. I thought we were starting to have a connection..

Sasuke came back and looked around like he had forgotten something. He looked at Sakura and motioned his finger for her to come here. She got up and walked towards him.

Please don't make me take a bath with you.

He lifted her chin and gave her light peck on the lips then turned around and left. Sakura sat there confused.

He's so hard to read.

Sakura sat in his room lonely. Looking at his boring room. Before she knew it, she was off it sleep.

BACK IN KONOHA

*knock knock knock*

"Sakura it's ok everybody makes mistakes! It's been 5 dayss now! Nobody has heard anything from you just open up!"

Lee stood outside her door unable to get her to answer.

Another failed attempt!

Lee walked off and met up with Naruto.

"Lee how's Sakura? I haven't spoken to her in a while."

"I think she's still upset"

"What? She has no reason to be upset. You do! But did she talk to you?"

"Actually I haven't been able to get her to speak all this while."

Naruto's face changed.

"What do you? Why haven't you contact anyone about this?"

"I didn't know I just figured maybe she didn't want to talk-"

Naruto ran off to Tsunade's office. Lee not too long after him. He burst into Tsunade's office.

"What Naruto how dare yo-"

"SAKURA HASN'T BEEN HEARD OF IN 5 DAYS!"

Lee ran in, "Naruto, do you think it's Sasuke?"

"Sasuke? What?! What is going on here! Somebody better explain this to me right now! I'll send out a search team to find Sakura. In the meantime, you guys explain why Sasuke's name is in your mouth about Sakura!"
