The room went dead silent as the nurse exited the room to find a doctor. Sakura looked around confused, "Y-You can't be serious Sasuke?"
He didn't look at her, "Yes."
The doctor walked in, "Mr. Uchiha I hear you want to donate your heart. You understand that this is a big decision. "
Sasuke just shook his head, "I don't care! Now are you going to take my heart or do I have to find another doctor?"
The doctor just sighed, "Ok you are of age? Then fill this out and I'll have a nurse come in and check that you are a capable donor."
Sasuke snatched the paper and took a seat to fill it out. Ino shook her head, "Sasuke you are choosing to die."
Sasuke continued filling out the paper, "I don't care!"
Naruto snatched the paper out of Sasuke's hand, "You can't do this you can't just die. This is suicide Sasuke!"
Sasuke gave him a very deathly glare, "Give it back now!"
"No you're crazy, you need to talk about, relax, scream, cry, do something. You've just been walking back and forth and hitting people."
Sasuke stood up, "I WILL HIT YOU TOO NOW GIVE IT BACK!"
Naruto took a step back, "NOT UNTIL YOU TALK TO ME!"
"TALK YOU WANT ME TO TALK? YOU WANT ME TO SAY HOW THIS IS ALL MY FAULT I TRIED TO GRAB THE GUN INSTEAD OF JUST GIVING HIM MY WALLET! THIS IS ALL MY FAULT HE SHOULD HAVE SHOT ME AND NOT HERE. BUT SHE SAVED ME I SHOULD BE LYING IN THAT HOSPITAL BED. AND IF SHE IS GOING TO DIE I'M NOT GOING TO NEED A HEART!"
Naruto didn't know how to respond to that he had never seen his best friend so broken. "Sasuke I…."
He snatched the paper out back, "Just forget it."
He finished filling out the papers when the nurse walked in. Sasuke handed her the paper and she quickly looked over it. "Ok Mr. Uchiha let me quickly check your blood pressure." After quickly checking him, the nurse sighed "You have very high blood pressure."
"So? The doctor's are always telling me that."
She shook her head, "I'm sorry high blood pressure affects your circulation and if you say they've told you this before you can't be a donor."
He just sighed heavily, "Of course not." He looked around at all the people in the room starring at him with sad eyes. He couldn't he just needed time to think and be by himself. He left the room looking for a quite place to think. But everywhere he went people starred at him word had gotten around about the poor boyfriend who was grieving for his dyeing girlfriend. He knew there was only one place for some peace and quiet.
He didn't want to put he walked into Shikamaru's room and sat in the seat by his bed. He took a deep breath, "When will this nightmare be over."
~Tenten & Neji~
Tenten walked Neji over to the intensive care unit but once they got to the double doors Neji stopped walking. "I can't go in there."
Tenten squeezed his hand, "Neji it'll be ok you just have to see her. Your family you're the only one of us that can see us."
He starred helplessly at the double doors leading to intensive care. "But we had that fight and I…"
She kissed Neji on the cheek, "That's why you have to go and talk to her she may be able to hear you."
He took a deep breath, "Ok I'll do it."
She gave him a peak on the cheek, "Good and please tell her that I love her."
Neji just nodded and followed a waiting nurse to Hinata's room. Neji stopped at the doorway he couldn't breathe. He took one look at Hinata so pale and fragile. He didn't know if he could stay here with her. He tried desperately to start breathing he had to control himself if he was going to stay. He stood in that doorway for ten minutes before taking one step in.
He walked over to Hinata's bed, "Hey Hinata….Before I forget Tenten says she loves you. They all do and everyone wants you to get better. I know we had a stupid fight and you were just trying to help me. I shouldn't have yelled at you…." Neji whipped some of the tears from his face more fell as he continued, "And I need you to know that I am so sorry for everything. It killed me not being able to talk to you because you aren't my cousin you are like my sister. Hinata please don't die you can't die you can't leave us. We need you, I need you and especially Sasuke…..Sasuke needs you more than anyone. He is going crazy Hinata please don't die."
~Naruto & Sakura~
Naruto had gone looking for Sasuke but couldn't find him and gave up. Sakura found Naruto sitting in the waiting room of the children's ward. "Here you are I've been looking all over for you."
Naruto looked up at her, "I just needed some time to think."
Sasuke stepped in, "Do you want to build something I think there are some legos in that draw over there?"
"Sure." Sakura pulled out the draw and the two of them start building.
They didn't speak for awhile as they continued to build she looked up and saw they had built half of the Konoha skyline. "This reminds me of the time and we both got our tonsils taken out. "
"Oh yeah I almost forgot about that. You were so scared."
"So were you or did you forget that I found you hiding in this room. I had to calm you down because it was time for surgery."
He smirked, "If I remember you kissed me to relax me."
"On the check we were only nine! And if I remember you ran away screaming! You said surgery was less scary than more kisses."
Naruto chuckled, "Well I've grown up a lot since then. You've always been there for me.….I should have been there for you."
She immediately stopped building, "Naruto you are crazy you are an amazing guy. You helped me get through so many things like my dad dying and my mom being crazy. You are always there for me until I pushed you away."
"I shouldn't have let you go I sh….." Naruto stopped mid sentence and looked behind Sakura.
"What?" Sakura turned around and had the same look of surprise that Naruto had because standing in the doorway was her mother. "Mom?"
Sakura's mom smiled sheepishly, "Hello Sakura may I talk to you?"
Naruto stood up, "I leave you two alone."
Sakura grabbed his hand, "No don't leave me."
He squeezed her hand and gave her a smile, "It's ok you two need to talk I'll be right back." He nodded as he passed Sakura's mother leaving the mother and daughter alone to speak.
~Sasuke~
Sasuke had fallen asleep in Shikamaru's room for an hour. He looked over at Shikamaru still unconscious in his bed. Sasuke glared at him for awhile before saying, "You bastard! How could you do this to me? Selling me out for your own stupid needs, I mean how can you make a deal with Gaara of all people?"
Sasuke almost fell out of his chair when a weak voice came from Shikamaru, "I know I suck."
"Shikamaru?"
Shikamaru turned his head over and opened his eyes, "Hey."
He didn't know what to say he just stared at him for awhile before asking, "How are you feeling?"
"Like I got hit by a truck."
"Close a car not a truck."
Shikamaru looked down at his bandages and casts, "Wow I am pretty banged up."
Sasuke stood up, "Yeah I should get you a doctor."
He couldn't let him leave without talking to him first, "Wait I need to say that I'm sorry. There is no excuse for what I did?"
"Why did you do that? Do you not like me dating Hinata?"
"No I do but I was sinking and Gaara gave me an option. And he is so evil and manipulating and honestly I didn't think he would be able to break the two of you up. I want to apologize to her too is she here.
Sasuke looked around nervously, "S-She is at the hospital…."
Shikamaru frowned, "She doesn't want to see me does she?"
"She is in the intensive care unit…..she has been shot and needs are heart transplant. And if she doesn't she is going to die. "
He couldn't believe what he was saying, "W-What?"
Sasuke was starting to shake, "She is going to die….my girlfriend who I was stupid to tell her I loved her and now she I going it die. I can't even see her I have no idea what I am going to do! I hate just sitting around a fucking waiting. Because every second I just sit here is another second she is closer to death. "
Seeing him so unstable made Shikamaru nervous, "You need to relax you are going to give yourself an anxiety attack."
Sasuke just turned around, "Forget it why am I even talking to a backstabber?!" Sasuke walked out of Shikamaru's room and slammed the door behind him.
Shikamaru sighed, "Why is my life become so troublesome?"
