I at least not until that surprising offer from… her.
Poker Face
Beast
At first I thought she was kidding, not only that but more than a bit drunk. She came to my apartment in a trench coat, stilettos on, make up.. a small blush came over his pale features.
He had to keep reminding himself that he was in battle, he needed a clear mind right now. Nothing could come between him and his goal.
Haruno……….Sakura….
His quick movement stilled suddenly, he received a vicious bite to his shoulder, wounding him. "Argh…" He quickly took out his frustration on the grand beast, wounding its arm aswell, the mark on his neck starting to glow, the seal around it making it burn and ache slightly.
He sighed and resisted from reaching his palm to place it over the burning wound, not wanting to give the creature the benefit of knowing that it Idid/I hurt him pretty bad.
His black eyes watched the monster still, look to him with a smirking growl. Fucking bastard.. you know don't you. he thought and looked to it, it didn't seem to want to attack him, it's eyes were an ugly red all over, vein within it enough to remind a child of that monster it sees in it's nightmares.
"I know what you desire, what you want more in this world." It spoke.
He stilled. "What do you know of my desires?" He spoke and turned his head slightly, his anger bubbling.
"I can hear what you're thinking; I see the images of her in your head." It spoke again, then let out a laugh that passed off as… perverted?
You know nothing of her. He thought in a growl.
"She isn't just an object of pleasure for you." The monster spoke, its claws burning the grass while he walked to him slowly. "You and she were put together for this mission because the Hokage knew herself that you and her are meant to be." It spoke as it neared him.
The Hokage knew that I wouldn't be swayed by her, that's why she put her with me She knows better than anyone that I harbor no emotion for anyone. He thought acidly watching the beast near him, it's eyes moved to his shoulder, his clothes burned through showing his wound.
It smirked. "Seems as if I hurt you worse off than I planned." It spoke in amusement, it's mouth opening, revealing razor sharp teeth, smeared with his blood. "Forgive my recklessness, I don't mean to kill you any time soon." It spoke and walked to him, stopping right before its nose touched his own, he felt the burn radiate from its skin.
"What is your name?" He ordered.
"Hinote." It spoke and smiled wider. "And you…" It spoke backing up. "A heartless shinobi, that refuses to acknowledge his own, emotions. " It spoke and began to circle him.
"I know everything about you…"
It stopped slightly, growing still. "She's coming." Hinote spoke, a smile grazing it's crooked, toothy mouth. "and I will take her from you."
When the familiar pink haired girl landed in front of him, the beast was gone. He noticed her breathing was heavy and then she turned to him, a worried look on her face. "S-Sasuke-kun!" She shouted and went to him reaching her hand out to his wound.
What did that beast mean, I don't love her at all…I don't care for her one bit. He thought as he watched her reach to him, he backed away with an acid tch and left her standing there. "Get away from me." He spoke.
She froze and looked up to him, her eyes seemed lost. "Sasuke….-kun…?" she asked again and watched him walk off, she stood up and walked to him touching his shoulder. "Sasuke, nani… daijobu des-" her fingers went to his wounded arm causing him to flinch and push her back. "I said GET AWAY!" He shouted catching her off guard.
She fell back a few feet from him, he didn't mean to push her so hard. She made no effort to get up. "But….yesterday… I thought you..I thought we-"
An acid laugh came out of Sasuke, we didn't do anything. You passed out from the liquor, get a hold of yourself." He spoke seeing her face go in utter confusion.
Wh-what!?....but we.. I know we did.. . Sasuke I ….you don't care.. she stood up straightening her long hair, hiding her face. You..don't care? "So.. that's how it is then?"
She stood seeing him with a serious face, then all at once she charged at him with lightning speed, her hands a glowing white while she hit his wounded shoulder hard, blood spurting out of it while she moved her heel between his legs and pushed her back into his stomach, flipping him over and making him hit the ground hard.
You don't' care.. you never did. she thought, he looked at her with angry eyes. "Don't touch me!" He shouted while she reached her hand over and slapped him. "Don't be an idiot, I'm healing you. We are teammates; if that thing comes back you should at least be in shape to fight it." She spoke with a gruff, hard voice.
Sasuke froze. She's angry… at me..? He looked to her working against his shoulder, her fingers moving around it in slow circles while she concentrated on it. He stood still and quiet until her hands died down in glow.
"Done." She spoke and stood up, adjusting her shirt while she walked away. "Be careful. " She said and stopped turning to him. "Kunai and clothes and be repaired and replaced by other things, but your body wont be so simple to fix. Don't' be stupid and forget that." She spoke, and then all at once she was gone.
Sasuke looked at her retreating form and smiled after it, a cocky smile. You'll be back.. he thought.
No matter what happens, you always come back.
Thoughts of that beast returned. " I'll take her from you."
He smiled surely and continued his training. Silly girl is in love with me, that stupid monster doesn't know what he's talking about. He thought as his thoughts traced back to that night, his pale cheeks caught a deep red blush.
Right now it shoudln't matter, she shouldn't matter.... but that night. He went crimson. That night she was the softest thing... Sakura.
He smiled again.
Haruno Sakura...
To Be Continued...
