I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Very moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

Sasuke loved to watch Saya sleep. That was the only time she would let him close to him, because she didn't even know he was there. He lay beside her, and watched her sleep, blowing softly to her face, and the girl turned toward him, and pushed him down the bed, causing a loud thud. Saya opened her eyes, and blinked at the boy, before sitting up straight and cocking her eyebrow. "I am a light sleeper you know." Sasuke chuckled. "I should've known." Saya huffed and looked on her table and turned back to Sasuke and said, "My glasses, idiot." Sasuke smirked and said, "Did I tell you that you look beautiful without them?" Saya chuckled before grabbing the glasses and said, "Well, I can't see anything without them, and I love them. My father got them." Sasuke smiled at her and Saya asked, "What are you doing here, early morning?" Sasuke sighed and said, "My parents are out, and Itachi is…"Saya frowned slightly and said, "How is he?" Sasuke didn't say anything. "How's Kei?" Saya looked at Sasuke, and shook her head.

Kei never came out of her room for anything but food and water. She didn't talk, and she looked like the living dead. Her mother had called Saya and told her to leave Kei alone for some time, something that shocked Saya since Kei's mother seemed like she knew Kei had broken up with Itachi. "How did Kei's mother know?" Saya shrugged. "I don't know. Do you even…know why Itachi did it?" Sasuke shrugged. "No idea. But, there has to be a very important reason. He loved her." Saya nodded. "We should find out." The two of them said at the same time, making Sasuke barricade Saya with kisses.

Itachi heard a knock on his door, and with the thought that it might be Kei, his heart jumped. When he opened the door, he saw Saya, and he sighed. "You were expecting Kei." Itachi walked back inside and Saya said, "Can I come in?" Itachi nodded and Saya walked in. "You can tell me anything." She said, and Itachi smiled at the girl and shut his eyes tight. "What happened?" Saya asked, and Itachi said, "Headache." Saya blinked, not knowing the intensity of pain Itachi was really going through. "You're going abroad." Itachi opened one eye just to see her and said, "How'd you know?" Saya pointed to the plane ticket on the table and Itachi chuckled. "Pretty observant aren't you, Nakahara?" Saya didn't smile back. "Kei's hurting. A lot." Itachi's heart sunk. He knew that. "I know." Saya frowned. "Then why are you doing this?" Itachi knew he couldn't tell her. She would tell Kei, and Kei would come running over and tell him he was an idiot. "Saya, some things cannot be explained." Saya nodded. "But, this can." She pointed to Itachi while saying that. Itachi hadn't shaved, and he looked sick.

"Itachi, you're giving yourself a hard time with whatever you're planning. She thought you were going to ask her to marry her. And, you know what? Even if she was young, she thought of actually saying yes to you, because she loves you that much." Itachi sighed and said, "I'm leaving anyway. Two more days." Saya stood up and frowned at him. "You should tell someone Itachi, and eventually Kei will know." Itachi knew that. "Ask Kikyo." Saya was shocked. "But, not now. Ask her after I leave." Saya didn't want to wait. "Please, Saya. Do this much for me." Saya had no other choice. Saya's gaze dropped to Itachi's phone. "IPhone." Saya said, and Itachi chuckled as he handed it to her. "Check it out, if you want." Saya smiled.

While walking back home, Saya and Sasuke walked side by side, and the girl said, "Two more weeks for Senior year." Sasuke frowned. "You must be really excited." Saya chuckled. "I know I'll do well. I've prepared enough with the help of the AP classes." Sasuke groaned. "What about you, jock?" Sasuke scoffed and nibbled on Saya's ear, making the girl blush and he said, "I'm kinda in love with my tutor, so I'll be fine." Saya chuckled and pushed him away, and Saya said, "And college?" Sasuke's heart dropped. College.

College meant separation. He was scared. He didn't want to leave the girl. He loved her. He actually loved her, and he knew he didn't want to split from her ever. "I'll join wherever you want to go." Saya frowned. "Listen, Saya, I can play football wherever I want to go, and since I'm football captain, I can get a scholarship if they watch me play. Where do you plan on going?" Saya blinked. "I don't know really. Whichever college accepts me?" Sasuke chuckled. "Which college won't?" Saya smiled. "There's something I need to do, Sasuke." Sasuke looked at her and waited. "Today's a Sunday." Sasuke smiled. He knew what Sundays meant. Sunday meant Saya would go visit her parents. "Mom or Dad?" Saya hummed slightly and said, "I'll visit my dad first. I still haven't told him about you." Sasuke scoffed.

The graveyard wasn't too far off. Saya scurried to her father's grave and Sasuke followed. "Hi Papa. I told you about the boy that annoyed me back at the starting of my 11th grade, didn't I?" Sasuke frowned. "This is him. Sasuke Uchiha. You knew his mother, right?" Sasuke's eyes widened. "Really?" He asked and Saya nodded. "My dad and your mom were friends." Sasuke blinked. "Anyways. He does annoy me still. But, I can take it now. Since…I love him." When she uttered that out, Saya blushed, and Sasuke held her closer. "Hello, Mr. Nakahara. Sasuke here. I love your daughter. End of story." Saya pushed him away slightly and said, "Give me a moment?" Sasuke nodded, and walked away.

"So, what do you think Papa? Are you happy up there? I miss you, you know. And about Sasuke…he might come off as an idiot, and a jerk, but…he's taught me loads. First and foremost, he taught me the importance of loving myself. Two, he taught me how to make friends. And three, he made me believe in the fact that you're proud of me." Saya closed her eyes and brought her hands in prayer, and said, "I love you, Papa." She stood up and walked back to Sasuke who hugged her, and the two walked back to their house.

Two days passed quickly, and Itachi left to a place outside Konoha. Kei knew he had left, but didn't know why, and the girl could not stop crying. Saya kept her side of the bargain, and asked Kikyo why Itachi broke up with Kei, and her heart broke. "No…" She said, and ran to Kei, banging on the door, and she yelled, "Kei! Kei! Come out!" Kei opened the door, her eyes holding panic. Saya's eyes welled with tears and Kei said, "What's wrong?" Saya let out a single sob and said, "Did Itachi have a migraine?" Kei's eyes widened, and she nodded slowly. "Kei…Itachi…he…" Kei held Saya by her shoulder and said, "Itachi what? Tell me, what happened?" Saya sobbed once more and said, "Itachi's problem wasn't just a migraine Kei…it's something called…an intracranial…ane-soemthing I don't know-""Intracranial aneurysm." Kei gasped and collapsed to the ground. "What is it?" Saya asked, and Kei began sobbing hard.

"Where is he?" She asked, and Saya said, "He's gone to Kumo. The operation is in Kumo. He said there wasn't a chance he…chance that he would survive the-""Don't say it." Kei scolded her sister, and Saya shut up. "I'm going." Saya wanted to stop her sister but Kei had made her mind up. "Itachi won't die damnit. He won't." Saya gulped. Kei walked out of the room, and went into hers and started packing. Saya waited. She didn't even know what was happening anymore. She didn't want Itachi to die, and she sure as hell didn't want Kei broken. Saya waited, she knew the only thing she could do right now was wait, and the girl had no other choice than to just stay put.

Itachi was glad the pills worked when he needed them to. He was in his flight, nicely tucked in, and the only thing on his mind was Kei. He knew that by now she knew the reason he left, and that wasn't even the plan. If Saya hadn't asked him, he wouldn't have told her, but there was nothing else he could do. He loved Kei, he owed her that much at least. 'Forgive me, Kei. Please, forgive me.'

Just before Kei walked out of her house with luggage someone unexpected stood in front of her house door. "Who are you?" The man had red hair, and brown eyes, and he looked rather handsome. "I'm Sasori. I'm a doctor from Suna. Actually, I'm Itachi's doctor." Kei's eyes widened. "Itachi's-""Well, there's something he asked me not to tell you, and as his doctor confidentiality must be kept, I'm sure you know that." Kei nodded. "Please come in-""No, what I'm about to tell you will make you want to go after him."

Kei waited. "Itachi has a 90 percent chance of getting a sub-arachnoid hemorrhage."

Kei gasped. "A-And-""And, there's a fifty-fifty chance that he'll live. So, he'll need the moral support that he can get." Kei gulped. "Who called you here-""Your sister is very smart. She went through Itachi's contacts and found that he spoke to me hours together, and when she gave me a call, and she forced me to tell her about Itachi." Kei smiled, as tears formed in her eyes. "That girl is smart, I'll give you that. Also, she's told me that she's booked a ticket for you which leaves in an hour." Kei laughed as she ran out. Saya walked toward Sasori and said, "Thank you." The red head shook his head. "Gaara's told me about you." Saya cocked her eyebrow. "We're relatives." Saya smiled slightly, and watched Sasori walk away.
