Chapter 4
'What's this feeling I have? That look in his eyes... I haven't felt like this since Sasuke.' Her heart somewhat sank, but then she realized. 'A-am I falling for... No. No, I don't want to be hurt nor do I want to be in the way. I hurt him already. I told him I hated him. But, Naruto, were you the one who tried to save me on the bridge?'
Sakura looked down at the boy to find him asleep again. She smiles. 'He's so cute when he's sleeps... Wha????? NoNoNoNoNoNo!!!! Since when did I think Naruto was cute!? ... Well, he kinda is now. Why didn't I notice him earlier.' The pink haired girl gave a sigh.
"Come on, Naruto. This is no time for sleep." She said softly to the young man. He stirred.
'Man, It was comfortable too... I wish I could stay like this. But wait, she hates me. So I guess I can only dream, right?' Naruto opened his eyes and got up. 'I have to help this wound.' He started to take off his shirt.
When Naruto took off his shirt, Sakura instantly turned red. 'What's he doing!!!!??????' Her eyes couldn't let go of the sight that before her own eyes. Her heart skipped a beat. 'Since when...did he...have abs...like that...?' She didn't know that though the years; Naruto studied every second to get stronger and better then Sasuke. 'I never knew he grew up into such a-'
Sakura heard a ripping sound that got her out of her thoughts. Naruto was tearing his damaged white shirt into long pieces. 'Oh, ...bandages.' "Uh, here! Let me help!" She took some of the clothes, tied them together, and sat behind the boy.
The thought of her helping shocked him enough. He was going to stop her, but his voice failed him. Soon she was wrapping the bandages around his back trying not to let the knots touch the injury. 'She's...taking care of me... No one has ever cared for me this much before. Does she really hate me?' Sakura finished with the bandages.
"S-Sakura-chan, I feel better already. I can use my chiara now to heal it." Naruto held up his hands.
"No! I'll do it, just in case." After a few seconds, the young man felt the pain subside. He closed his eyes in relief. Then he felt Sakura's forehead on his back. Tears also came down. 'What's wrong...'
"N-Naruto-kun, I'm s-s-sorry about ye-yesterday. I don't really ha-hate you. Forgive me. I just-"
'Naruto-kun...' The fox boy turned around and faced the girl. 'His hair's gotten longer too-' He smiled and wiped away some tears. "It's ok. I new knew that you didn't REALLY hate me."
'Heehee. Liar.' She shook her head to clear her thoughts. "Uh, Naruto- kun. Were you the one that saved me on the bridge?"
"Ah, uh, yes."
She smiled back. "Thank you. I don't know what came over me..." Sakura started to get up. Naruto saw another tear fall on her cheek.
He caught her wrist. 'It's Sasuke-' "Whatever that basterd said, forget it."
"I'm alright. He-he just said we were friends, that's all." Then, every thing that was built up in her heart shouted to be released. She kneeled back onto the floor. Her eyes shadowed over. She let go of the boy's hand. But since she felt so lonely without him touching her, she held on to his hand. Tears started to fall once more. "I didn't want to jump just for Sasuke. I knew I hurt you. I knew you care. But I didn't see it! All I wanted back then was to be Sasuke's. But I didn't see that you cared. And when Sasuke rejected me, I knew. I just knew how much you mean to me. I don't deserve any of this. NONE AT ALL!!"
Naruto could feel her hand slipping away from his. So he tugged her back and brought her to his chest with his arms encircling her. "Don't say that. Please don't. Everyone deserves something, you most of all. You're kind, sweet, ...and beautiful."
'Beautiful? Sasuke would never say that. My heart is fluttering again. He's saying all these sweet things. He always cheers me up. He's always there for me. Do I really... Am I falling in lo-lov-love with him!!?'
"Naruto-kun..."
He held her tighter. He was going to say it. He hoped that she would still accept him. "Sa-Sakura-ch-chan..." He's going to do this! "I say this because...because I love you!" His eyes closed tight, ready for the impact.
...
Sakura's emerald eyes widened and softened at the same time. 'Oh Naruto- kun!' She put her arms around his neck and moved closer to his face, inch by inch. She finally lightly but longingly kissed his lips. ... "I love- you too."
Naruto became less tensed. He opened his deep blue eyes to a brightly smiling Sakura. 'She acknowledged me!!!' "You really do?" he looked into her pretty green eyes.
'With no doubt!!' She shook her head yes.
"Ha Haa!!" Naruto was so happy he jumped strait into his feet and twirled Sakura around like a child. He forgot about his pain in just a sec. "Ow!!" he let Sakura down, putting his hand on his back. Sakura bonked him on the head. "Hey?" His other hand went on his head.
"You stupid baka. You forgot that your wound isn't completely healed yet!" She gave him a 'you-silly' look. "I'm going to find some ointment and change really quick." She started to leave.
"Wait! ... You will come back, won't you?"
She looked back at him sincerely. "I will." And then she left.
Naruto sighed as he carefully sat back down. 'Ah, she finally loves me. I'm finally acknowledged!'
'Tist! You humans and your emotions!'
'Kyubi!!!!!?????? HOW LONG WERE YOU LISTENING??????????'
'Ever since I woke up. Don't blame me! You were the one who got yourself hurt!'
Naruto grumbled.
"Naruto, what's wrong?"
Naruto jerked.
'Now how long was SHE listening?' Kyubi asked.
"Uh, nothing, love. Hee hee."
Sakura was in her pink dress again but still held the coat. The girl lifted an eyebrow and shrugged it off. She sat behind him and started working on his back again.
'Ahhh, that feels good...'
'You perv-'
'Shaddup you!'
When she was done, Sakura led Naruto to bed. "You should rest still."
He slowly lay back onto his bed with the help of Sakura. The pink haired girl crawled right next to him, putting her head on his chest. "Say you'll always stay with me?" She asked. He smiled.
"I will."
"Am I worthy?"
"Yes. To be cherished, protected and loved." He leaned in to her and kissed her lips, though it hurt his back.
She kissed him back. "I love you."
