A/N: Konnichiwa!! Hello...I've so far updated Dangerously Sixteen...*sweat drop* High School is tough, especially science . Daydreamer5290 would give a double nod for this one XD. Anyways, I've been experiencing some failures on this website, and when I upload my chapters the computer is so slow that I accidentally click it twice...which resulted in having an extra chapter with the same content. You may have experienced it, or you may have noticed that it had happened to me. . Anyway, it happened to Dangerously Sixteen and this story as well. If that happens, check back to the latest chapter (last one) because when I replace an existing chapter, they don't have those Author Alerts that people might have subscribed to.

NOTE: I probably will not be updating as much as I have been in the summer....I hope that you will fully understand. However, I will be sure to update ^____^ don't worry!! Thank you for all of your reviews!! I will gladly acknowledge them in the next chapter, but so far I don't think I have received any for the previous chapter . Does anyone like this story soo much besides Herro7220 and KawaiiKenshin, Eikou??? By the way, I appreciate you two for your reviews, it shows me that people are actually reading AND enjoy at the same time....*sigh* please...read and REVIEW!!!

Disclaimer: I own the characters that you have never of....yes, I do. ^____^

~Rekindling of the Heart?~

Sakura stood out on her balcony and rested her head on her hand as she stared out into the city thinking of what had happened out in the country with Sasuke and her. He seemed so comfortable with her, and she had no idea why...usually when she is in the presence of her fans, they go all frantic and practically run over her with questions and screams. The pink-haired girl shook her head and laughed at the fact that he had something up his sleeves...to make her so safe with him...

Safe

A small breeze wafted through the air, and feeling a bit chilly, Sakura went inside and slid the window closed and grabbed her robe and sat on her comfy bed. Sakura laid her head on her pillow with strands of her pink hair scattered around her face as she stared calmly at the ceiling like she had when she was once a little girl. She turned her head slightly to the right where on the wall was a framed award for her first winning album...Sakura shrugged.

The phone rang and Sakura went over slowly to pick up the phone. "Hello? Oh, yes I understand...ok, I'll be there in awhile, yes I know...I need to rest, I know. Don't worry," she smiled over the phone. When she put down the phone she went to her closet and grabbed a few articles of clothing and then went over to the bathroom. Slowly she took off her nightgown feeling the soft silk smoothly go down her legs. She then stepped into the shower and turned on the warm water. At first, it was cold, and she shivered and quickly turned the knob to the left for a warmer feeling of the water. When the temperature was just right, Sakura stood there drowning her face in the water...wondering...pondering...

After a few seconds she went over to one of the small shelves and got out a soap for her skin. She gave the small bottle a little squeeze and a clear solution spurted out into her small hands. Sakura put the bottle back to its place and then massaged the soap over her body. The feel of the soft little crystals settled in the solution made her body so calm and soothing. When she entered into the ray of water from the shower, the warm water melted away the crystals and Sakura washed her face and massaged the rest of her body. A few minutes later, she turned off the water and slipped herself into a soft towel and dried herself carefully and wrapped herself around the white material and then slowly went over to the mirror and touched her soft complexion. Her face was paler than usual. Shrugging at the thought, Sakura went over and dressed into her day clothes.

The phone again. Sakura picked up the phone and knew who was going to call her, "Yes, I'm going to be there...don't worry, ok, yes, I'm fine..." she then hung up on the other line and then went over to her bed. She carefully straightened the blanket and stuffed the pillows into a fashion that she liked.

Sakura then headed out the door but when she had her hand on the doorknob, she stopped and a smile crossed over her face. She turned around and grabbed her purse and keys to the car and then left the building. Putting on her treasured pink shades she approached her platinum convertible and stepped inside and turned on the ignition. She looked back for some free space and if any cars were in sight. Coast was clear. She then stepped on the gas and the vehicle slowly approached the street and then Sakura steered to the right and straight onto the road ahead of her.

The celebrity then stopped at a red light, and then she closed her eyes. After awhile when she opened her eyes, it was a green light and then she drove on until she reached a building and then turned into the parking lot. She then got out and grabbed her purse and set her keys into the bag. Sakura headed toward the entrance, but a figure stood ahead of her. It seemed to tower her a head over her own. As she stepped closer, Sakura knew who it was, and she didn't smile to the visitor...or guest...or even stalker...

"Hello...Sakura," the man took off his hat as if to disguise him and his raven black hair shone in the broad daylight and Sakura nodded in return, "Oh, come on Sakura, I at least should deserve some decent greeting," he stepped in front of her blocking her entrance.

"Please Akihiro, move..." she stared into his dark eyes. With a soft face, Akihiro held her by the shoulders and stared into her emerald eyes as if they were precious gems.

"Sakura, have you gotten my calls?" ignoring his pleas, Sakura moved aside and headed to the entrance but her ex boyfriend's words stopped her.

"Sakura, I couldn't sleep for the past few weeks, I didn't eat, I couldn't think of anything but you, and now I'm on the verge of being fired off of Sephora," Akihiro's body seemed thinner than usual, and his face looked serious. Sadly, Sakura gave in and forgave him.

"So...does that mean that we're together?" Akihiro held her hand.

Thinking of Sasuke on the side of her mind, she looked at Akihiro as if he seemed nothing to her but a friend only. However, Akihiro bent down on one knee just as he did at the restaurant a few months ago. He held her hand gently and looked up at Sakura who knew what he was going to do. He held out a small box, and Sakura let out a surprised gasp...not a gasp like a girl who was about to be proposed...but...a how-could-you gasp...

"Will you marry me?...again...?" Akihiro asked holding the big rock in front of Sakura.

The image of Sasuke sort of blurred in Sakura's thoughts and not aware of her subconscious, she nodded slowly and Akihiro smiled and embraced her small figure. The two walked together but Sakura told him to stay outside when she entered into the building. Akihiro insisted but Sakura told him no...as if afraid to tell him something. With a nod he understood and stood outside waiting for Sakura. And on the other side of the street, in the dark shadows, a motorbike stood at the corner, as the owner calmly stared at what had just happened in front of his own eyes...
