"He's back!" a man of Konoha shouted, "The Uchiha's back!" He ran down the streets, shouting the same thing. Little did he know that he passed by a certain pink-haired kunoichi.
Sakura was doing her grocery shopping until she heard the news. "Sasuke-kun's back?" she asked herself. She dropped her bags and ran towards the entrance gate of Konoha.
A raven-haired teenager- soon to be a man -fell on his knees as he entered Konoha. He was bloody, sweating, and was panting heavily. The crowd by the gate gasped his legendary name- "Sasuke Uchiha!" Sasuke looked up and saw a blurry vision of the gasping and murmuring crowd. He groaned and fainted.
"Get out of my way!" Sakura shouted as she pushed her way through the crowd. She finally made it to the front and saw Sasuke, who was on the ground out cold. "Sasuke-kun!" She ran to him and put his arm around her neck as she lifted him up. She struggled her way to the hospital as people stared after her, clearing paths as she walked by.
"Tsunade-sama!" Sakura screamed as she entered the hospital, "It's Sasuke-kun! He's back and he's in critical condition!"
Tsunade came out of her office and looked at the wounded Uchiha. She opened a door and motioned for Sakura to go inside. "Hurry!"
Sakura immediately obeyed and went inside.Once in, she layed him down on the floor. "Tsunade-sama will take care of you, Sasuke-kun," Sakura informed. She then left the cold room to Tsunade.
A few hours later, Tsunade emerged from the door with bloody hands. "He's fine now," she declared. She went into the bathroom to wash herself.
Sakura jumped out of her chair and dashed into the room. She ran to Sasuke, who was now sitting up and rubbing his head. "Sasuke-kun!" Sakura cheered, "You're back! And you're as good as new!" She smiled at him.
Sasuke stared at her. She sure has changed. She didn't even hug me. "Sakura," he whispered hoarsely, "Long time no see."
Sakura's smile disappeared as she remembered about the time he left. Tears started to roll down her cheeks. "Hai," she whispered back, forcing a smile, "Five years is long time." She turned around and started to leave."Tsunade-sama will be with you shortly. I have things to do...gomen."
Sasuke stared after her in surprise. She's leaving? I thought she'd stay. What happened to her? "Sakura," he started, but it was answered by the sound of a closing door.
Sakura sat on a bench at the park. She looked at the cherry tree in front of her and sighed. "Why did you have to leave?" she asked it.
"Hey Sakura!" Ino's voice piped.
Sakura turned around and saw the blond smiling happily. "Oh..hi Ino."
"Did you hear the news? Sasuke-kun came back."
"Yeah. I had a talk with him in the hospital."
"Well...he's safe with you. I'm with Shikamaru now so you don't need to worry about me taking him away."
"I don't care who takes him away. I don't even care if he finds someone else."
Ino was surprised by her friend's answer. "What? But I thought you loved him!"
"Not anymore." Sakura's eyes seemed to darken.
"Stop denying it Sakura," Ino teased, "You know in your heart that you still love him."
"Ino's right," came Temari's voice, "You can't deny that fact."
"Where did you come from?" Ino asked suspiciously.
"The tree. I was evesdropping." Temari smirked. Ino just rolled her eyes.
Sakura stood up and left. Idiotic fools. I don't love him.
Ino started to blame Temari for Sakura's dismissal. "Now look what you did!"
"Me? I didn't do anything!" Temari shouted. The two girls argued for a while.
