Chapter Five: Emotions or Betrayal?
Sasuke reluctantly opened his eyes when he felt the sun's rays beat against his tired eyes. But today it was different, he was in the arms of a flower. His flower. 'Is this how it will be for the rest of my life? Would it be with her?' he thought. Soft sighs flowed out of her mouth showing her peaceful state. She looked so vulnerable while she slept, her frame was his only warmth while he was hers.
He lightly pecked her on the cheek making her eyes flutter open. "Good morning," she said followed by a soft yawn. Sasuke helped her up while trying to find their discarded clothing. When they were fully clothed, they stepped out of the extra room looking disheveled. Sakura's head was bent down in deep thought of a certain someone. 'What am I feeling? It's like my chest is about to burst. But why? Please don't tell me I have feelings for this man. I am only a toy with a place on his shelf.'
'Don't be so dense girl. Of course you have feelings for him, even though it's only been two nights.'
'Please leave me alone. I can't stress with you right now, I need to sort things out. Like I'm supposed to be planning my escape but I find my self in the arms of this man.'
'Der, it's called love you silly woman,' stated her inner mind.
'Love? There is no such thing as love. Unless you call love when you're sold of to some whore house by your own 'loving' parents,' spat Sakura.
'Never mind.'
'Good. Now I should get back to my sorting.'
While Sakura was sorting her thoughts, Sasuke was doing the same. 'Why is she still here?' he asked himself. 'Is it because she relieves my stress?'
'Or is it to pleasure you for the rest of your life?'
'I don't know. But she makes me smile, she drives me mad with emotions that I can't explain. That first night I saw her, she intrigued me. But why?'
'Is it because you love her?' asked his conscience.
'Love? I don't know.'
When the two made it back to the courtyard, they were abruptly brought back to reality by the man that started the whole thing. "Master Uchiha, were have you been? A meeting is waiting on you. You must get ready!" blabbered Drey. Sasuke just nodded at the older man's words.
Sasuke soon left Sakura's side to get ready for his meeting. Sakura was bored after a few hours of nothing but birds chirping and clouds moving. Sigh, was all she had been doing for the last hour.
"Hey hot foxy mama!" said Akira with a grin plastered on his face. Sakura smiled back at him.
"Hello Akira," greeted Sakura. Well at least she had some company. Akira reminded her of her younger brother. She barely remembered him though. He died of a fever when she was nine.
"Sakura-sama, will you play with me?" he asked with cute puppy eyes.
"Sure, its' not like I have anything better to do." Akira took hold of her hand and dragged her off into the garden with glee.
Sakura's eyes softened when she saw the boy's small garden he grew himself. It consisted of daises and lilies all rearranged. "See? I made this one specially for you," he said while pointing to a pink flower.
"It's pretty. Who helped you start your garden?" she asked out of curiosity.
"My okaa-san did," he whispered sadly. "She's with father-san."
"Where are they?" she asked while bending down to Akira's level and gently hugging him for comfort
"Gone," he said as tears began spill from his eyes. Small hands tightened around Sakura's arms as the boy cried louder.
"But I'm here," she cooed as she picked the boy up in her arms with a sad smile.

Sasuke was on his way to another long and boring meeting with the elders from other parts of country. As he was making his way to the second floor, he happened to glance out the window to see his flower holding Akira. A small smile crept its way up his face at the scene before his eyes. Would it look like that if they were to have a child? But who would his wife be? His string of questions were cut short when Drey beckoned him to enter the room.
Sasuke regained his stoic face and calmly walked into the room without a trace of emotions.

Sakura had no clue what she was doing. Why was she being nice? By now she would be walking away from this old man she was helping. Akira was there to helping out. The old man was carrying loads of flower to the kitchen and refused help from Sakura. But she refused him refusing her offer. He was a head shorter than she was due to his back problems.
The pink haired woman used all her restraint to keep herself from bopping the old stubborn geezer on the head. Easily she picked up three bags of flower and threw it over her shoulder, Akira was only able to carry one. The man was only left with two bags of flower, he realized that she picked up the heaviest of the six bags.
For the rest of the day, Sakura helped the elderly around the castle by doing chores, cooking, and helping with other stuff that were for younger people. Where were the younger people anyways? It just now hit her. Everyone in the palace was two times her age except Akira.
"Aska-san, where are all they younger people?" she asked while balancing the laundry in her hands.
"You see my child, they are off fighting a war with Uchiha-sama's father. Right now they are fighting in the sound village," said the elderly woman with a crinkled frown.
Sound. That was the village were she born and sold off to the brothels. She hoped that sound would get wiped out. No one there had any remorse, all the people were vain, even the children. Her brother, Seto, was raised by her. She taught him how to hold his tongue, play normal games of sticks and how to ignore stuff. But then the fever came and wiped out most of the children who weren't strong enough to fend it off. Sakura was one of the lucky ones.
The day her brother died, she could've never forgave her parents for what they did. They didn't even try to act as if they cared. For the whole sickness, they were locked in a cellar with barely any food, just enough to keep them alive. Her only response from her parents was just a simple, oh. At the castle she felt like she had somewhere she belonged, or even a duty she had to accomplish.
Killing five hours was easy with all the chores around the palace that needed to be done. With all the chores done, she was bored as heck without Akira around. He was taking his mid-day nap and the elderly were taking a break. The only thing she hadn't done was explore the castle. For numerous minutes, she walked down hallways that seemed the same. After what seemed forever, she found herself on the second floor. Sweet. Her ears perked up when she heard faint murmurs at the end of the hallway. Sneakily, she made her way to the end with curiosity written all over her face.

"…what do you mean take in a wife? I have no need for a wife, they only cause trouble," complained Sasuke.
"But Uchiha-sama, you need to keep up the legacy. We cannot have a lord with no one to rule by his side. We will give you three months to find her. If you don't complete this task, we will have to strip you from your name and land."
"Fine," replied Sasuke in a calm yet angered voice. The people in the room started to shuffle around as the meeting came to a close.
Sakura gasped and stumbled backwards when she heard the door opening. 'What should I do,' she thought frantically while looking for a way to escape.
Sasuke was the first out of the room, and the first to see Sakura on the ground looking scared. Sure he wanted to see his flower, but he didn't think that she'd already be waiting for him. Why did she look scared? Then it hit him, the meeting. When he looked back to see his flower, she was gone. He could see her body sprint down the hallway.
0000000000000000000000000000000000
"So I am just a toy. He's going to throw me away soon," she cried as her tears spilled. "He'll need to find his wife and there will be no need for me. But hey, at least I'll get my life dream. My freedom," she managed to say between her broken smile.
Sakura's legs couldn't move anymore. Her body froze when she felt someone hugging her from behind. 'He's fast. I hope his wife will be happy,' she thought sadly.
"Sakura, where are you going?" he asked with a frown.
"I'm preparing to leave you so you can find your 'wife' without any trouble from me," she answered without any emotions in her voice.
"What wife? I have no need for one," he whispered. "I only need you," he finished off. Sakura gasped.
She turned her body around so she could see his face. "But why? I am only a toy for your pleasure," she cried with her tears flowing down freely.
Sasuke brushed her tears away with his hand and lightly kissed her fore head. "You're not just a toy to me. I don't know why, but you make me want to spend all my time with you. You make me feel normal, you drive me crazy for you every time I see your smile," he confessed with a smile of his own.
Sakura didn't know why either, but she had to say something too, "Sasuke, I don't know why either, but when I'm with you, you make me feel human. Something more than what my parents thought of me. You make me feel things I've never felt before which makes me scared."
"You don't have to be scared, you have me," he said before crushing his lips onto hers. More tears spilt from her eyes, but these tears were tears of happiness.
Sasuke picked her up bridal style and ran towards his room without anyone noticing them. Sasuke placed Sakura down as he slid into the bed while discarding his clothing. Sakura pulled off her obi and shrugged off her robes and climbed into the sheets with Sasuke.
His arms slanked around her shapely waist as they shared a kiss. Sasuke's tongue found its way into her mouth as she climbed onto his waist. Sakura straddled Sasuke as he broke the kiss. Sasuke felt himself harden when he saw his beauty sitting on top of him with her hair falling around her. He grasped her hips as his mouth found her hardened peaks. He took one into his mouth while his other hand massaged her other peak.
Sakura moaned at the contact. Her arms wrapped around Sasuke's neck when she felt him nip her tips. Sasuke's mouth left her breast as he kissed her. Their tongues were caught in another battle while Sasuke's hand found its spot on her hips. He picked her bottom up and positioned her right above him. He gently pushed her down making her hips grind into his hardened member.
"Ahhh…Sasuke," she moaned. He bucked into her as she bounced up and down, together they began to make a rhythmic pattern. Every time he'd pull out, she'd push herself back down.
"Sakura, ohhhh," Sakura soon lost her beat when Sasuke decided to start his own pace. He went faster, when he opened his eyes, he saw that Sakura's breast were lightly bouncing up and down taunting him. As he kept pumping into her, he played with her peaks making her moan louder.
"Yes, ahh Sasuke!" Sasuke felt her about to reach her climax. Before she did, he roughly reclaimed her lips. With one final push, her walls tightened around him making him climax. After her final moan, her body collapsed onto his. "Mmm…" she said as he wrapped his arms around her. Once in a while he would pump into her making her whimper until they fell asleep.

"Master Uchiha, Mari-sama would like to speak to you," came a knock at his door. Hopefully it didn't wake his flower up. Sasuke growled. He quietly snuck out of the bed not to disturb his sleeping flower. Quickly, he threw on some clothes not caring about his appearance. Unwillingly, he stepped out of the room without realizing it woke up Sakura.
0000000000000000000000000000000000
Her eyes snapped open when she heard the chamber door quietly snap shut. 'I guess Sasuke didn't want to disturb me. It doesn't matter anymore, once I'm awake, there's no way I can fall asleep.' Sakura groaned as she sat up, her legs were still a little sore from last night's session. Slowly she prepared for the day. First she started off with a nice bath, threw on a plain kimono, and brushed her hair.
Sakura stepped out of the room only to be shocked. There he was, Uchiha Sasuke in the arms of Mari. He's lips were pressed against hers. Sakura could feel the tears begin to swell. She did the only thing she was good at. Running away.
TBC…
Author's Note: Craps, was that long enough? I have to get ready for school. I can't believe Sasuke! Grrr…oh wells, it's not like he was forced or anything. Oops, I wasn't supposed to say anything.
Until next time my friends.
And Thanks for the reviews >.
