Of Wolves and Bouquets
--Once upon a time, there was a wolf. The wolf was all alone and decided to go on a journey. On his journey, he stumbled upon a meadow full of grass and weeds with a single solitary pink flower standing in the middle. The wolf was amazed comparing the flower to himself--
Sakura roamed the streets in disdain. Her family has been brutally murdered by an infamous group of thieves. No one cared to take care of her since her parents came from different countries. No one except her own sensei, Kakashi. Sakura was alone, with no one to care for. Kakashi was almost intrigued at this, how Sakura and himself were alike.
--He decided to keep the flower company and took care of it everyday.--
Sakura has lost the ability to battle. The trauma of the faithful day when her parents were slaughtered prevented her from doing such deeds involving harm. Her dreams of being a kunoichi were shattered. Now, she works at Ino's shop as a local flower vendor. Kakashi has decided to keep her in, since the mere sight of her old house made her tremble in fear and in utter sadness. He takes care of her and supports her as a legal guardian. Team 7 has moved on though, as a new member, Bokuto[1], an advanced bloodline carrier that excels at swordsmanship, has replaced the incapable Sakura.
--However, a storm came and the wolf couldn't come—
However, as Sakura turned 15, she sees one of her parents' murderers. She couldn't take the trauma. After a few days since the 'meeting' she fell into a coma. Everyone grieved at this, especially Kakashi. No one cared for her now as much as Kakashi does. Her former teacher and her new room-mate, Kakashi, has once again fallen to the pit of sadness which he escaped from long ago.
--After the storm, the wolf found the flower missing and was greatly saddened. Although the wolf was in despair, he never gave up and visited the flower's spot continuously—
At Sakura's 18th birthday, she finally awakens, fully aware of all the time Kakashi was giving her. A surge of happiness overtook Kakashi as he heard the wonderful news. Upon seeing the reborn Sakura, he could not help but awe at her aspiring beauty. Truthfully, she has grown in her 18 years of life.
--As the wolf visited, the flower sprouted and gave out many seeds[2] planting the whole field. The wolf visited again, happy to see a full meadow of happily blooming flowers. The wolf, afraid to lose the small pink flower again, lived in the meadow. And thus, happily ever after.—
After living together again, Kakashi finally realizes his true feelings towards the pretty woman. He could not help but confess his feelings in an offer of marriage. She accepts for deep inside her heart, her feelings for him have also blossomed. Like a flower, yearning for the company of the wolf.
END
A/N: I actually made that whole wolf & flower thing all by myself. Wo nan guooo!! (I'm saaaaaad)
[1] Bokuto: He's an OC. His name actually means 'wooden sword'… I think.
[2] Gave out many seeds: This is fictional… so no pollination! Or maybe… (don't read on if you don't want to get sickened) … the wolf pollinated the flower!! gah, I'm sick!!!
