Chapter 22

Megumi's Confessions

Megumi ran to the lake and jumped onto the red gate. " Anscestor, this is where you cursed us," She thought. Megumi jumped onto the shrine roof and looked down. There stood Sasuke. Megumi stared at him. "Hey Sasu- " Megumi was cut of when she saw Sakura. "Sasuke, when you kissed me you," said Sakura with a blush. "I don't have Megumi anymore. I should go to Sakura," thought Sasuke. Sasuke walked up to Sakura. Sasuke kissed Sakura lightly on the lips. "Let's go," said Sasuke with an emotionless smile. Megumi thumped onto the roof. "This pain again!" she thought. She hicked and started to rub her eyes. Sasuke heard her and turned around. "Megumi!" he yelled. Megumi got up. "I just want-wanted to te-tell you that-" Megumi hicked again. "That I'm leaving for good and that-that I- love you," she said in a whisper. Megumi ran away. "Wait!" yelled Sasuke. Sasuke dashed after her. "Sasuke," whispered Sakura as she followed.

Moroko walked over to the lake and sat down. "The gate," she thought as she stared at it.

"Miss stop!" yelled the man. He grabbed her and jumped to the other side. "Are you ok?" he asked. Moroko blushed. "You almost killed yourself," he said as he stood up. "I was in no danger," said Moroko as she squeezed the water out of her hair. "You weren't?" he said with a blush. Moroko giggled. "I'm Taka Uchiha," he said as he thrusted his hand out at her. "Priestess Moroko," she replied as she shook his hand with a small smile.

"Taka," she whispered. Moroko gasped when she saw Megumi jump onto the red gate. "Megumi?" she said.

Megumi stopped when she was grabbed by Sasuke. "Megumi wait, hear me out!" he said desperatly. Megumi turned around to face Sasuke. Sasuke looked at her face. Her face was red while tears dropped down her face. "Megumi I love you. I don't want to lose you!" yelled Sasuke. Megumi rubbed her face. "Let go Sasuke, I have to go!" yelled Megumi desperatly. Sasuke grrrd. Suddenly Sasuke grasped Megumi and kissed her. Sasuke wrapped his arms around her waist, making it so her feet could barely touch the ground. Sasuke let go and looked into Megumi's eyes. Megumi was paralyzed. Megumi blinked then blushed. "Sasuke," she whispered. Moroko smiled a small smile.

"Taka, promise you'll always hold me like this," she said. "Promise for life," he said as their lips met.

Sakura fell to the ground. "I thought Sasuke loved me!" she thought as a tear trickled down her rosy cheek. "No!" thought Sakura. Sasuke hugged Megumi. Megumi slowly lifted her arms. "Megumi, I love you. I always have. Stay near me!" he yelled. Megumi squeezed him tight. "You mean it?" she asked. "Yes," he said as he kissed her again. "Sasuke," she whispered.
