Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or any of its characters.

I know a lot of people were disappointed with the last chapter. I apologize for it. To tell you the truth I was running out of ideas at that time. Hints, I ruined that entire chapter, at least in my POV anyway. Well, I hope you enjoy this chapter. Also I misspelled 'Mr. Chillhurst's' name. It's Mr. Chillhurst instead of Mr. Chillhurts. Sorry about that.

Thanks to all of you whom reviewed the last chapter and those of you who tuned in to read the story.

Well on the story!

Chapter: 6

The doorbell rang and the noise echoed through every wall in the house. Aware of the whom it was, Kay ran to the grand doors and welcomed the visitor on the other side. Instead she came face-to-face with trolleys and trolleys of leather luggage. She stepped aside to let them in.

"Good afternoon, Kay. I see your well," a man in a black blazer and gray trousers stepped after the footmen. His short gray hair complimented his rather big moustache.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Chillhurst. Yer on the dot as always," Kay said as she lifted her maid-skirt (a/n: I don't know what it's called) with both her hands on the side and bowed down, "I hope ye had a pleasant trip."

"Yes," he smiled mischievously and yet all the calm sight to see, "so where's the lad? I'd like to see him before I get freshened up."

"Master's been busy these days and he's been keeping quite to himself. I just hope this trip of yer's will aid him to open up a bit," Kay explained rather sadly as Mr. Chillhurst straightened up a bit from her sudden change in facial expression.

"Very well. I'll just get things in order and ring me when it's supper or the lad decides to come out," he said and wished her a goodbye before leaving.

(At the study room)

A knock was heard on the door. Sasuke gave a muffle 'come in' before going back to some researching he was doing, "Mr. Chillhurst has arrived and we'll begin supper as soon as you wish, sire," he butler spoke up.

"Tell them to begin without me. I'll join them shortly," Sasuke said without lifting his gaze up from the papers.

"As you wish, sire," with that he left him alone in the study.

A cold, silence fell upon the table that only the slightest touching of the knife and fork made the deafening noise unbearable. A couple of times Kay put down extra food and in return only gained a silent thank you from Sakura. Kay finally sighed and left the dining area, leaving both Sakura and Chillhurst behind.

After fiddling with the food a bit, Chillhurst, being the gentle man, broke the eerie silence, "Sakura, what's your last name? I mean your full name," he asked quirking an eyebrow in curiosity.

"I… I…" Sakura swallowed before continuing, "I don't-"

She was cut short when she heard a chair move beside her. It was Sasuke, "It's nice that you finally showed up Sasuke. I was beginning to worry that you were never going to show up," Mr. Chillhurst spoke.

"I got caught up in some work," Sasuke took a bite of his stake before continuing, "Have you heard any news from my brother?"

That's right…Uchiha Itachi's Sasuke's brother. Sakura remembered his name quite clearly. Her friend had spoke of him once. She was not sure but she also recalled seeing Chillhurst talking to him. She couldn't tell but the man had the same eyes as Sasuke but colder, more concentrated as if he was ready to kill anytime. He had the same hair color except his hair was longer. This brought back memories and now she wished she hadn't been going to deep into the subject, but it was too late now.

"Not since the trip to the camps. He told me that he's ready to give it up," Mr. Chillhurst explained and paused to study Sasuke's anxious face then started again, "He was really fed up with what your father had created those camps into. He told me that it'd take a while for him to get back," he finished off and took a sip of some red wine.

"No exact date, huh?" Sasuke said, "It's like him."

"But enough about that, how are you doing?" he asked in a calm voice.

"Fine," Sasuke said without looking up to meet his eyes.

"You've got yourself a great wife here. She's very kind," Chillhurst said in a rather amused voice.

"The best," he replied.

"You know you're working too hard, Sasuke. I think it's time to take a break don't you? I mean Sakura needs to see the world, even if she has before," Mr. Chillhurst commented. This made Sasuke's head shoot up.

"I have no time to take some pesky trips. I've got work," Sasuke explained.

"He's right, besides as you said, I've already seen the world and now I just want to relax. We just got back from our honeymoon and-"

Before she could finish Chillhurst interrupted her, "Nonsense. You should go. I'll handle all the affairs and matters here," he said with a reassuring smile.

"We'll discuss this later, Mr. Chillhurst. Right now, please enjoy the rest of the supper," Sasuke said and went back to eating his stake.

Finally, the black velvet had surrounded itself on the sky, with little diamonds sparkling. Sakura got into her pink pajamas and tied a rob around her before she exited the bathroom. She'd gotten used to this routine everyday, but she knew she shouldn't get attached to it. There wasn't a bathroom in her room, but she didn't mind.

As she was walking back to her room, she saw Mr. Chillhurst approaching her. Shit! She tried to turn around but it was hard since he was looking directly at her, "hello, Mr. Chillchurst."

"Why Sakura, what're you doing up? And where are you going? Yours and Sasuke's bedroom is the other way," he looked at her suspiciously.

"Umm… your right…b-b-but I was just… you know…" she gulped. She looked desperately around for something then she continued again, " Lights! Yeah, I was just checking if they're closed or not," she sighed a sigh of some sort of relief.

"But that's the servants job," he replied.

"Yeah… I remembered that and I was just heading back to our room, you see and then I saw you," she explained carefully.

"Well, you must be tired. Why don't I walk you to your door?" he offered.

"No, I don't think that would be necessary," she said to him, "well, goodnight."

"Goodnight, Sakura," he said before heading off, but still watching Sakura as she went towards Sasuke's door.

Sakura walked slowly and beads of sweat rolled down her temples as she walked to the door in Chillhurst's gaze. She opened the door quietly and turned back to Mr. Chillhurst and gave him a smile before she slipped into the room. Her heart rate began speeding up with every step. What has she gotten herself into?

It was cold and dark in Sasuke's room. And he was asleep, right? When she didn't hear any silent breathing, she began to panic. He was awake. Her eyes got used to the darkness surrounding. Just then she felt someone's gaze on her. She froze, "What are you doing here?" A rather irritated voice said.

"Well… you see… umm… Mr. Chillhurst…" she began telling him the earlier incident.

Sasuke sighed in frustration. He leapt off the bed and approached her, then switched on the switch on the wall. Sakura shut her eyes. The blinding light hit her eyes pretty harshly; "you can sleep on my bed for tonight. I'll go sleep in the closet."

"The closet?" Sakura questioned. Was it that big?

"It's pretty huge. I'll be enough," he said and walked back to his bed. He grabbed a pillow and pulled out an extra blanket from underneath his bed. He closed the closet door behind him. Sakura was happy and rather sad at the same time. She liked the fact that she get to sleep in the bed where only Sasuke's scent will surround her, but then it was not the same as sleeping beside him. Who is she kidding? That'll never happen.

The cool, night air played with her rosy, pink hair as she stood on the balcony. She couldn't sleep. She twisted and turned on her bed, but she found no comfort. It was like this all the time. She'd wake up and then cry herself to sleep.

She frowned. Why was life so difficult? She wished no one born on this planet had to go through the same torture as her. It was killing her, and as always there was nobody she could go to.

This visit form Chillhurst wasn't helping here either. Why did he have to come here anyway? Was he that lonely at home? Not to forget the fact that he reminded her of her past. Every time she saw him, a bad memory would pop into her head.

Flashback

A loud knock was heard on the door. Eight-year-old Sakura screamed as she saw the men standing at the door. With fear set in her eyes, she ran the other way, only to be stopped by her father. She held onto him by the waist, "Daddy! The scary men wanna take me away!" Sakura exclaimed, panting and sobbing.

Waiting to be picked up, she peered through her clouded eyes at her father, but instead he just glared at her, "Get a hold of yourself! These men here are just here to do their job!" he grabbed Sakura by the arm and tossed her across the room. The back of her head hit the wall, making the red substance roll out. He turned to the two large men and nodded.

"No! I don't want to go! Please daddy! Don't do this!" Sakura sobbed.

On cue, one of the men grabbed Sakura by the waist and tossed her over his shoulder. Sakura screamed. She balled fists and hit the man on the back, but he just chuckled. The other man took out load cash from his pocket and threw it at Sakura's Father. He took it greedily and left the room.

The men smirked at each other and then left the residence. They placed Sakura on the back of the truck. Handcuffs were tied to her hands with the edge of the truck, to make sure she didn't escape…

End of Flashback

Her eyes fell upon the garden. It was so peaceful. She felt so used to this lifestyle now. She knew she'd miss everything here when she has to depart. She had no right. She sighed and turned around to leave when she was met with a pair of dark, onyx eyes, staring her down in curiosity.

"Sasuke," she said as she watched him approach her.

"What're you doing up?" he said as he leaned against the railing and watched the sky.

"Well… I couldn't sleep," she replied and watched the sky beside him.

A couple of minutes passed by and a peculiar silence fell upon them. Only the chirping of the cricket could be heard. Sakura tried to break the silence, finally, "Sasuke?"

"Hn?" he said without moving his gaze.

"What is Mr. Chillhurst to you?" Sakura asked, this time watching him.

He snapped his head towards her. This surprised Sakura slightly. Suddenly she wished she didn't ask, "He's a close family friend and my father's business partner."

"Oh," she was too frightened to ask any more. She wanted to ask him more, but decided that it would probably ruin the mood. Better leave it for another time. They looked at each other for a second more before looking away.

TBC.

A/N: So how was it? I know it was short, but my best friend's back from overseas and got we've got a lot to catch upon. Anyway, if you find anything in there that looks like a clue remember it. I hope you've figured out who the main people are so far. This story is sort of a mystery, but I don't see it as a mystery. The fact that every story has a secret fills it in. Anyway, hope you liked it and if you have any questions please tell me. Please review!
