Cupid's Bedtime Stories

A/N: Oy! So sorry about the wait. I fell into a horrible case of writers block, and then started playing games, which led to me writing even less. Then, it was finals week, and now I'm all rested up and recharged. Hopefully these next three chapters will satiate you guys. Sorry once again!
Oh… another thing. I know you guys want me to write some pairings, and I'm really sorry that I haven't been. They'll come, eventually.
Chapter 10: Sakura x Hinata
Hinata and Sakura both reached for the stars, but had gotten burned and fallen along the way. Hinata by Naruto, and Sakura by Sasuke. So now, they were alone, unwanted, but together.
It was a bitter sort of reassurance the two girls received from each other – the reassurance that the fire hadn't burned them alive, only most of their being. But, at least, they had each other. They weren't alone, but it really didn't matter.
Deep down, they both knew that the other wanted the man who had denied her. But they were together, united by their shared pain. Each hug was hollow, each kiss tried to drain the life from each other. But their relationship of pain was still there, and both Sakura and Hinata had to admit that without it, they would fall apart.
Even though it hurt for them to be together, it hurt more to be apart, so they stayed.
