Chapter 11: Regrets

Sasuke stirred besides Sakura waking her up.She looked at the clock next to her.The click read 5 a.m.She thought about what Sasuke was planning to do tommrow, she deffinatly didn't want to go back not now atleast to her, her mission now was to convince Sasuke to stay with her in Konoha.As she laid there and starred at him she thought about waking him up and talking to him since before she fell asleep everything seemed to be going "good".With a loud sigh she brought up her hand and touched his shoulder gently moving it."Sasuke?" She asked quietly.Sasuke yawned as he strechted out."Hm..What time is it?" He replied."5:05 a.m." Sakura replied.Sasuke sat up in the bed."We should keep moving." He spoke seriously as he got up from the bed and grabbed his clothes.Sakura nodded her head and sat up.

Once they left the room they stopped by a small ramen shop which was the only thing that was opened at that time and ate breakfest.As they sat there and ate, Sakura finally spoke."So, what are you going to do after you leave me at Konoha?" Sasuke looked at her."Go find Itachi." He simply replied.Sakura shook her head with out saying a word.She didn't know how strong Sasuke had gotten since their childhood but from all the information she read about Itachi, he surely wasn't someone to take as a were thart his power surpassed that of Orochimaru's.Once they finished eating and they reached the forest.Sasuke looked over at Sakura who hadn't spoken since the ramen shop.He noticed the distressed look in her eyes."What's wrong with you?" He asked.Sakura knew if she replied, he would get mad but she worked up the nerves and replied.

"Your foolishness is my problem, Sasuke before you even speak, I know what Itachi did and how you want to avenge your clan.. But theres more to life then power and vengence." Sakura stopped."And theres more to life then worrying about me.Let me do what ever I please to do with my life.I've told you already I walk a diffrent path then..." Before he could finish Sakura interrupted him."You walk the path of death because you want to." She responded."You don't know what your talking about let someone kill your whole family and we'll see what path you choose." He replied."Not the path you have choosen.Stop living in the past.In the end you'll find nothing but loneliness, tell me if you do kill Itachi, what then?Killing him will not bring back your clan.There's people who care about you.Is there something so wrong with people actually caring for you?" Sasuke smirked."This whole lecture, you act as if you know me but you don't know nothing about me so stop acting as if your so concerned once I leave you in Konoha.I won't be your problem anymore." He replied coldly.

(Inner Sakura) "Oh no he didn't, I know you ain't going to let him get away with that!"

Sakura stopped for a second and looked at him deadly in the eyes.

"Your such an asshole.You know that right?"

"And you've come to realize this now?"

"Yeah..And I've realized how much I regret ever meeting you and actually caring for you,the Sasuke I once knew is gone and you..To me your dead...Turn around and go find your dear brother, I don't need you anymore I can find my own way home." With tears in her eyes Sakura finished talking and rushed by him.

Sasuke just stood there trying to comprehend what had just happened he looked towards the direction Sakura had went and started togo his own way.

After what seemed to be four hours or so of traveling Sakura heard a familer voice ahead of her."Naruto?" She thought to herself.The faster she went the louder the voice got.Finally she got to a river and saw the campsite of her dear friends "Naruto!" She screamed out with tears in her eyes.Naruto stopped messing with the tent he was fighting with and turned around and saw the pink haired shinobi running towards him."Sakura-chan!" Naruto yelled back as he hugged her tightly."I've missed you so much." Sakura replied in between tears.She never thought seeing him would make her so happy.Naruto looked at her with worried eyes."What happened?What did that fucking bastard do?" Naruto asked furiously.Shika, Ino came from the west as Hinata,Tenten, and Neji came from the east.Everyone was amazed to see Sakura.Ino rushed towards her friend and gave her a hug as everyone else came to see if she was alright.

After everything was calmed down Shika sat down to finally start asking Sakura questions.

"So where's Sasuke?"

"I don't know." Sakura replied seriously.She didn't want to think or talk about him at the moment.Shika noticed how uncomftrable she looked talking about him so he changed the subject."Well, If your already with us and you don't know where he is I guess the mission is over so we can head back plus it looks like you could use some rest." Shika replied as he stood up and patted Sakura on the back.Once everyone had packed up they headed towards Konoha.They arrived at the village around four a.m. Before everyone split up Shika walked over to his team."Guys we did a good job even though we really didn't do anything but still we got Sakura back here safe and sound,Sakura I'll inform Tsunade-sama that your back in town so she porbably want to see you tommrow and ask you question so have a good night." Ino then walked over to her.Do you want some company tonight?" She asked concerned."No thanks, Ino." Sakura replied with a small smile.They gave each other a hug and went home.

"Being home sure feels great."She replied with a sigh as she locked the door behind her and walked straight to her room.She took off her shoes and quickly got into the bed.As she laid in bed all the thoughts of Sasuke that she tried to keep out of her head soon made their way back.She thought about every event that happened from the beginning untill the end of it all.A tear rolled down the side of her face.Sakura wiped it off.She couldn't belive how foolish she had been for actually thinking she could change him and there she was telling him he was the foolish one.After one thing and another she soon feel asleep.

The next morning there was a loud knock on the door.Sakura rubbed her eyes as she slowly got up from bed and made her way towards the door.When she opened up she was surprise to see who it was."Kakashi-sensei!" She replied as she jumped up and gave him a hug."Wow what a miracle that your around, always busy doing missions and all." Sakura replied with a smile.Kakashi chuckled.."Well yeah someone has to do it.So I heard what happened." He replied seriously.Sakura swallowed. "Yeah." She answered as she looked down at the ground."He's the same huh?" There was no reply just an akward silence."Well, anyways I came because Tsunade-sama sent me.She wants you to take a shower eat breakfest and go see her as soon as possible,so I'll stop wasting your time so you can hurry on up." Sakura looked up from the floor and onto her sensei."No, he's not the same... I don't even know who he is now." Sakura replied and closed the door as she leaned onto it.She got a hold of herself and made her way to the bathroom.After she had finished all that she had to do she was finally ready togo and meet with the hokage.

Once she reached the lobby she took a deep breath and softly knocked on the door hoping no one would answer surely enough that wasn't the case."Come in." The voice from inside the office replied.Sakura opened the door and walked in bowing infront of the Hokage.

(S)

Tunade-sama, Kakashi sensei told me you wanted to see me?"

(T)

"Ofcourse, I see your alright.Take a seat Sakura and explain to me what happened."

(S)

"Nothing really happened, the whole Anbu group got seprated and I fell down a steep hill he saved me, later on he took me to some cave in the woods where we slept, then in the morning we head onto his apartment he then told me he was going to bring me back and here I am."

(T)

"Sakura, why do I feel like your not telling me the whole story?Don't try to cover up for him."

(S)

"I'm not, I assure you."

(T)

"How was hes reaction to you does it seem like he has any type of feelings for you?"

(S)

"No, I'm deffinatly sure about that,before I met up with the team I had an argument with him and it was pretty clear that we..."

(T)

"Yes?"

(S)

"That we don't have any feelings for each other."

(T)

"Sakura by any chance did you do anything with him?"

(S)

"Why do you ask me that?"

(T)

"Because a young lady being with a handsome young man things can happened."

(S)

"No Tsunade-sama nothing happened between us.If you'll excuse me if there is no more questions you want to ask me can i please go home I'm kind of tired I had a bad night last night."

(T)

"Yes that will be all.Sakura, I'm glad your alright I was really worried."

"Thank you, Tsunade-sama.Sakura replied as she bowed once more and left the office once she shut the door she took a deep breath and sighed somewhat relieved she had gotten all that out of the way.She wanted togo visit Ino and all of them but she truly was tired.So she decieded best thing was just togo home and rest.

Once she woke up she looked over at the clock next to her bed "10:45" She thought about what she would be doing tommrow but nothing came up.After she ate some food she went back to bed.She felt more lonely then ever."I guess I miss having the company of him, with me at night." She thought to herself.Her body had gotten accustom to him and his touch.No matter how much she wanted to forget him she couldn't.

"Back over to the hidden village of Sound, Sasuke laid in his bed starring at the ceiling, the last words Sakura had said to him kept replaying themselves over and over again in his head.The solitude he was used to no longer seem to not bother him,truth was he was starting to realize that he did fuck up and that she was right, about everything the whole Itachi thing, and him just being a complete asshole."I should just go and apologize to her..."
