Author's note: Thank you for the honest reviews. The good thing about this fic is that it's not going to last, and if I get enough bad reviews after I finish, then I will remove it, BANZAI!
TomokiG: You have been the first to give me a negative review ever, CONGRATULATIONS! The negativity filled me with warmth. Don't be sorry, I agree, as -I think-will everyone else, this is crap compared to my other fic. I'm not trying to outdo it, I'm writing this because inspiration struck and I felt that I had to write something seeing as the next update of "Out of Sight…" is a bit far off.
crakbaby23: If you think that this is crap then just say it, 'kay? If you truly like it then I question your taste (joke) and thank you all the same.
Mistakes
Part two
"Ah, you're talking to me again, I knew you couldn't resist" Sasuke chuckled. Sakura wiped away a tear and pulled herself to a sitting position, she faced Sasuke.
"I never thought I'd talk to you under these circumstances" Sakura sighed
"Hard to believe that team seven will never ride again" Sasuke said. Sakura wiped several more tears away
"Y-You have changed, Naruto was right" Sakura said
"Guilt can do that to someone" Sasuke said
"How do you feel about it?" Sakura asked directly "…I would think that this would hit you the hardest"
"You would think" Sasuke inhaled deeply "…what about you?"
"I don't feel right talking to you about it" Sakura turned away
"Pretend I'm Ino or something like that, it helps to talk" Sasuke said. Sakura briefly looked back before sighing –yet again-
"I hated him…yet I loved him. He was a jerk but he was someone I could trust. I…"
"S-Sakura-san?" A hesitant and slightly confused voice called out from the door
"Hinata?" Sakura looked at Hinata. She walked in, her eyes were red and puffy but she did not cry, she hid it exceptionally well.
"I-I wanted to say that I'm sorry" Hinata said, a tear ran down her face. Sasuke looked to Sakura who was sitting in the bed
"for what?" Sakura asked, her eyes half closed
"Tsunade-sama said that the damage was to far gone by the time she got to him to save him. I'm sorry" Hinata turned and fled without giving Sakura a chance to respond. After a few minutes Sakura spoke
"She screwed up" Sakura said after Hinata had left
"She was just the field medic, she isn't as strong as…"
"SHE screwed up" Sakura snapped harshly, Sasuke shut up
"Okay…DARN GIRL!" Sasuke yelled shaking his fist at the door
Sakura was too depressed to say anything to him. Sasuke lowered his fist and looked at Sakura
"Listen I got things to take care of, later" Sasuke said, he waved his hand and walked away. Sakura didn't even hear him leave. Her back was propped up against the head of the bed behind her. Her tears had made her tired, aside from that she felt fine, her head didn't hurt from where she hit it. Sakura fell asleep where she sat, she dreamt a dream of when team seven were in their prime.
Sakura awoke where she slept, back against the head of the bed, sitting up. She decided to leave. Sakura removed her hospital gown and replaced it with her clothes that were draped over the chair next to her bed. She didn't dawdle and left soon after, she didn't bother signing out.
Sakura felt lost. She didn't feel like going home. A thought occurred, a sharp tug was felt in her heart. She began to walk, slowly. It was about an hour at her pace but she arrived at her desired destination. The Uchiha hamlet. She cautiously entered and wandered around. She found herself in a gathering area, where a platform was, it was a large area surrounded by houses and buildings. She stood in the centre. She was alone
"Sakura?" A voice startled her. She jumped around to face Sasuke who was just staring at her "…what are you doing you?" Sakura opened her mouth but words would not come out. She shook her head to say 'I don't know'
Tears once again began to build up in her eyes. She sank to the ground and entered the fetal position. Sasuke reached out his hand and was about to put his hand on her shoulder, he stopped short, Sasuke stared at his hand, clenched it and brought it back to himself
"I-I m-miss…" Sakura began saying
"I know you do" Sakura just lay there and cried "…but it's not worth crying about" Sakura stopped crying immediately and jumped to her feet
"SHUT UP! WHAT DO YOU KNOW?" Sakura screamed before running away. Sakura briefly looked back as she ran, Sasuke was gone
Hinata was out for a walk, just getting off a shift at the hospital. She saw Sakura in the distance running. Hinata bit her lip and ran after her. When she caught up, Sakura was on her knees. Hinata cautiously approached
"S-Sakura-san?" Hinata got closer. Sakura turned to look, as before the tears stopped in place of anger
"Y-You! It's your fault, what the hell kind of medic lets someone die." Tears spilled down Hinata's pale cheeks
"I-I did m-my…"
"Your what? Your best? More like your worst!" Sakura said in anger "…no wonder no one cares about you. You are a useless bitch." Sakura walked forwards, barging Hinata out of the way roughly with her shoulder.
Sakura walked, she just walked. She didn't have much conscious control, she allowed her feet to just guide her. As she walked she briefly looked up…it was Narut's apartment. Sakura looked down again but quickly did a double take, Sasuke was standing outside the building
"I've been crying too much" Sakura said to herself, finding a reason why she didn't see Sasuke first time around. She walked past Sasuke who was leaning up against the side of the building. She stopped just past him.
"Why are you here?" Sakura asked
"Just came to say a personal 'goodbye'" Sasuke said. Sakura continued to walk. Sasuke did not follow
The sun was half hidden behind the horizon; the hour was late. Sakura made the decision to get an early night. As she approached her house she noticed that Ino was standing outside. Sakura got closer, Ino noticed her
"there's a memorial service tomorrow" She told Sakura "…I doubt that many people will show up, he wasn't well liked in this village" Ino was met with silence "…I can't imagine losing a team mate. I feel bad enough about it but you must have it worst of all" Ino left when Sakura once again stayed quiet. Rain began to fall. Sakura sluggishly went inside.
It would be a cold night.
Author's Note: I was surprised that I have received a few positive reviews for this, Thank you all.
Arurisonu Akane: Thank you, I'm glad that you don't mind that I changed Sasuke's character. This fic is short because I'm writing it to prove that I still write (coz it has been a while since my 'Out of Sight…' update)
Danny-171984: Short and sweet as ever Danny, thank you
Raina(): BEG FOR A REVIEW? I suppose I did, now that I think about it. You wouldn't be the first to criticise my grammatical errors and I doubt that you will be the last. Thanks for reading
