"Itachi..." Sakura whispered against the male's chest as he held her close to his heart.

Her emerald eyes were wide as she looked up at Itachi and much to her surprise he was showing a real emotion; sadness and regret, brows furrowed and forehead creased as he looked down at the pink haired woman.

"If just for tonight... Let me love you..."

Sakura's vision blurred with tears as she closed them and felt her face inching closer to Itachi's and for once he didn't move away from her but came closer until they met in the middle as Sakura's heart skipped.

The pad of Itachi's thumb rubbed against the skin of her cheeks as he wiped any and all tears from her face, lips never separating as he continued to show Sakura just how much he loved her tonight...

His fingers traced the outline of her body as she shuddered against the touch; lips parting which gave the Uchiha the perfect opportunity to delve his tongue into her mouth while coaxing her own.

Sakura was filled with passion and bliss and it seemed lie forever since she felt those certain feelings; too long in-fact...

Her fingers played with Itachi's long ebony hair as he gently pushed Sakura down on the bed and tangled his legs with her own long ones; onyx eyes opened as they were met with wide emerald ones when he pulled away.

"Itachi... I want to love you too..."

And she sealed the deal with a chaste kiss on the lips; her face name placed in the crook of his neck as she breathed in his scent. What if they could never be together again and what of Mai!?

She wasn't just going to abandon her only daughter and runaway with Itachi again; that wouldn't be right and fair to Mai...

A sigh escaped her lips as she once again took in Itachi's scent of forest musk as she looked at the gleaming ring on her chain that Sai had proposed to her with; her eyes closed as she let her head fall back, arms soon after coming to wrap around her middle, careful as not to agitate her wound...

'If just for tonight I can love you, then...'

'What of the rest of my life...'

Chapter 24: Sworn Protector

He hadn't gotten much sleep the other night and already it was at least 3 am; his eyes stayed glued to the ceiling of the room, lips slightly parted and hand gripping the bedsheets beneath him...

Why he had kissed her?

He still had no clue...

He was Uchiha Itachi dammit! He held feelings for no one but this kunoichi was much more different than anyone he had ever met before. She labeled herself as a pathetic lost cause but in reality she was equally as strong as any ANBU

His lips still burned with the feeling of having Sakura's own pressed against his...

He didn't deserve her in anyway; killing her husband and ultimately destroying everything that she had left.

Even Deidara hated him for being the selfish bastard he was; he knew that Deidara loved Sakura as more as a friend and he had taken that to his full advantage... His hand unconsciously ran down Sakura's arm as she sighed in contentment.

"Itachi..."

"I hate you."

Had he really said those awful words to Sakura so long ago? Yes, he was a fool for ever letting her go when she clearly wanted to be with him but he was too wrapped up in his own business that her priorities came dead last.

They should have come first!

He couldn't have her even though deep down inside he truly wanted her; all those years away from her made him realize something that he thought never existed within him; it might have been love for the young woman...

She had been the first and last to capture his cold heart.

'I'm afraid that its too late now...'

Sakura had been the first person to actually show him any form of kindness; oh yes, having her kept in Akatsuki sure as hell was interesting, her fiery attitude is what had caught his attention first.

There was just something about her that kept pulling at him like a magnet...

My God! Why won't he just settle down with the woman, she had of course given birth to his child and it only seemed like the right thing to do...

His damn pride was the problem!

Itachi had worked far too hard to blow his entire status now! But Akatsuki was diminished anyway and everyone would be heading their separate ways...

The only question was... Where would they all go!? Everyone already knew of the Akatsuki and if they were to step foot in any village they would as sure as hell be arrested and more than likely slaughtered!!

It was fate that they would all continue fighting for their loves till the day they die, even if they did admit defeat and ask for forgiveness...

Man, that sure brought a wry smile to the Uchiha's lips. He could just hear the other shinobi he could have easily killed now...

"The great Uchiha Itachi, giving up!?"

Kami-sama, what had he sunk to!?

His onyx orbs darted to where the sleeping kunoichi lay, her hair in disarray and her body shifting under the thin layer of blankets covering her shivering body.

What had caught Itachi attention was the small smile plastered on her lips as she continued to sleep, was she having a good dream?

Sitting upright, Itachi glanced around the room; it was dark and the sun wouldn't rising for another couple of hours, he sighed in annoyance. Today he just couldn't get any damn shuteye and was driving himself insane with his own thoughts...

They were drowning him in a sea of his own misery and mistakes that he had mouth throughout life...

The thirty-six year old brushed strands of hair out of his face as he re-tied the pony tail at the back of his head. He needed to clear his mind or else he would never be able to fall asleep!!

Carefully removing the blankets from his body, Itachi let his gaze sweep over the darkened room, he would have to be careful not to trip on anything; the sharingan was out of the question since he used way too much chakra fighting leader...

But now he was dead and the fight was over with, he hadn't even said goodbye to his fellow members and didn't know of their whereabouts...

Gripping the door handle, the Uchiha pulled open the hotel room door and looked out in the hallway for any signs of people walking by. Why was he being so damn paranoid all of a sudden!?

Its not as if ninja looking for him are going to jump out of nowhere and force him to come with them... right?

Letting out a breathy sigh, Itachi firmly closed the door behind him as he roamed the halls until he came upon the main stairs which he descended and informed the desk manager that he was taking a step out for a while.

She had smiled at him before going back to her job.

-

Now, Itachi was standing near a small looking pound, eyes trying to see through the murky waters below and what they held for the eyes...

He cast a lone rock into the waters and watched as the flat surface of it skidded along the waters for a while before it eventually submerged into its murky depths, never to be seen again...

Spotting a tree nearby, Itachi leapt up into the air as he ascended higher and eventually reached the desired branch as he sat down and rested his back against the trunk of the tree as his head tilted back, eyes looking out at the land around him.

He would have to head back to the hotel soon, if Sakura somehow managed to wake up she would surely be terrified and to find out that he was no longer in the room with her...

"I'll go back to you..." That was his whispered promise to the young woman.

Itachi had somehow gotten sidetracked and ended up entering a large shop during his journey back to the hotel and he had to obtain an object within it. It would affect Sakura's life as well as his and Mai's.

And for the first time in his entire life, Itachi let a genuine smile grace his lips...

'This is the right decision.'

Her body shifted from side to side, searching for the source of warmth that seemed to have disappeared from her side...

Emerald eyes shot open as a frail kunoichi shot upward, her body shaking as her eyes darted around the room for any signs of life. No one but herself was in the room and what of Itachi...

She grimaced at the thought as a bitter smile etched onto her face, so he had decided to leave her all alone again; to abandon her in her time of need...

Was he that much of a selfish bastard!?

A lone tear trailed down her cheek as she pulled the bedsheets up to her chin. She had promised herself that her days of crying were over, how stupid she had been to try and achieve this...

Her fingers touched the coldness of the chain around her neck and then lightly grazed the diamond ring she had worn at one point when Sai and her were married... Itachi had destroyed all the hope left in her to live on with her life in peace.

Not seeing him...

The image of Sai's dead face and void ink orbs staring up at her made her shudder as she looked up at the ceiling, a sad smile now touching her lips as she closed her large and watery sea-foam eyes.

'I want to avenge your death but I don't know if I can go through with it...'

And it was at that moment that a long held in cry escaped her throat as her shoulders began to shake from the crying she was doing...

Though, through all of her pain and despair a small smile was forming on her lips as she thought of what Sai would have said if he had seen her this way...

"Stop being such a baby, Sakura-chan."

Though Sai had always neglected her and thought of Sakura as nothing but a stranger, these past years had taught him a thing or two... He had grown to love the woman when he had trouble depicting what emotions were...

She had been his World from the beginning.

Just like she was Itachi's World, he was just having a little trouble figuring this out...

Her ears picked up the shuffling of feet as her tears stopped abruptly, eyes darting back and forth trying to find the source of noise and where it was coming from.

Squinting her emerald eyes, Sakura was able to make out a fairly tall figure near the closed door, she had been too wrapped up in her thoughts that she hadn't realized that someone had entered the room!!

Itachi looked over at the silhouette of Haruno Sakura, she was upright and he could somehow sense her distress, the small wrapped up object was stuffed into his pant pocket as he walked over to where Sakura was.

"Itachi?" She asked in confusion and when she saw the figure nod she immediately felt relief rush through her body.

She felt a pair of hands cup her face as she traced the male's body with the tips of her delicate fingers, she gasped when she came across his wounded arm which seemed to have opened up.

"I hadn't noticed."

"Apparently..." Sakura mumbled.

Flicking on a nearby lamp, Sakura examined the soiled bandages before removing them and depositing them in the bathroom trashcan while she searched for more ointment and bandages.

Cleaning up whatever blood had seeped from the wound, Sakura then applied some of the ointment to it as she tightly wound the bandage around the male's muscled arm as she secured it by tying the ends in a knot.

"There." Sakura announced with glee.

Itachi examined his arm as he let a small smile grace his lips, he watched Sakura's backside as she place everything back to where they rightfully belonged; tucking strands of pastel locks behind her ear, Sakura shuffled out of the bathroom with tired looking eyes.

"Rest."

Sakura watched as Itachi took her elbow and led her to where she had originally been sleeping as he put her into bed and turned his back on her once she was properly tucked in.

A look of sadness made its way onto her features as she gripped his shirt with her small hand, her voice pleading him...

"Sleep beside me. Your warm."

He let a smirk play on his lips set in a grim line as he looked at the alluring woman behind him.

"I do recall you calling me a cold-heartless bastard once before." He said smartly.

"You remembered?"

"How could I forget all the insulting names you used to call me."

"I still do!" Sakura put in quickly.

She smiled meekly at him while resting her head against the softness of the pillow, her emerald eyes never leaving him the entire time Itachi climbed into bed beside her.

It was only then that Sakura found peace as she finally let sleep take her into an imaginary World unlike reality...

"What are your plans, Kisame?" Naruto couldn't help asking.

The shark-like man scratched his head.

"I was-"

"He's going back to live in the ocean with all his fish friends." A voice cut in.

Deidara stood in the doorway of the hospital room, he was in a bloody mess and his hair was all messy, sweat forming on his forehead and rolling down his face as he vigorously wiped it all away before taking a step forward.

"Shut up, baka!"

Deidara smiled at him.

"Oh and thanks for leaving me to fend for myself in the forest."

"Your very welcome."

Naruto watched the two bicker for a while, he almost smiled if not for the memory that made him become lost in his own thoughts...

It reminded him too much of Sasuke and himself back in their genin days when they fought about everything!!

But Sasuke was now gone and hadn't been heard of for a long time and Naruto was sure that he would keep himself under low profile.

"Deidara, shouldn't you bandage up those wounds?" Naruto asked.

Said man look down at himself as he smiled sheepishly.

"I guess your right, Naruto-sama..."

He slightly blushed at the new name as he waved his hands in front of him while shaking his head from side to side.

"Just call me by my name, there's no need for such formality."

Nodding his head, Deidara looked around the room.

"Where are the medic ninja, Naruto-san?"

"There should be a few wandering the halls..." He mused.

He had been hokage for only a few hours and already the people of Konohagakure were bowing down to him in respect, no thoughts occupying their minds as to why Tsunade had appointed Naruto to be 6th hokage.

Well, this is what he has always wanted and he finally got what he rightfully deserved!!

There was someone special that he wanted to share this with but he was afraid that she couldn't be found by any of the shinobi; like she just disappeared into thin air!

'Sakura-chan...'

Mai was still unconscious and according to Tsunade, she wouldn't be waking up anytime too soon; she had passed out from exhaustion...

"I'll find her Mai, you can count on that." He silently vowed.

Sunlight began to filter into the room as two entwined bodies began to shift and turn.

Sakura was the first to open her eyes as she looked over at Itachi, clearly happy that he hadn't decided to go back to sleeping on the couch; lips curved into a smile as she shook that male awake.

"Morning." She greeted.

He too sat up as he dragged himself out of bed, they would have to leave soon and search for another place to stay at; they couldn't spend the rest of their days going from hotel to hotel just to find somewhere to live.

"We have to go."

Sakura looked up at him as she and the Uchiha quickly made the bed and had a quick bit to eat before they headed off once again, now entering the outskirts of the village until they reached the dense forest from which they traveled through.

"I want to get Mai." Sakura suddenly stated while looking over at Itachi.

"Its too risky for us to go at this moment, we must wait a little."

Understanding what Itachi meant, Sakura nodded her head and silently promised Mai that she would return for her and for her to hold on just a little while longer...

Itachi hadn't noticed the rain clouds forming in the skies above until a few raindrops fell on his head and before he knew it, Sakura and himself were running while there was a storm brewing...

They jumped from tree to tree but with Sakura's sore back she wasn't able to run as fast as before and the rain only continued to fall but harder this time which caused everything it came in contact with to become wet!

The pink haired woman had lost her footing on one of the branches and ended up hurtling for the ground below her if not for another hand gripping hers and keeping her from falling any farther down.

Itachi sigh in relief as he began to haul Sakura back up as he set her down on his lap, hands instantly running through her wet-matted hair as he brought his face close to her face, breaths mingling with each other...

"I am your protector, Sakura." He whispered against her lips as he captured them.

'Your sworn protector...'
