Chapter 11

I thank you all for your *sobs* reviews…They mean a lot to me! *goes away and cries alone in a corner*

Have fun with the chapter…

Shikamaru threw his head backwards and let out a frustrated groan.

God what had he done to deserve this woman?

"SHIKAMARUUUUU!" A shriek came from his door.

He would not survive this.

~With Naruto and Sakura~

Sakura woke up and found herself cuddling with a shirt and after scratching her head she could recall having seen Naruto wear the shirt the evening before.

Naruto…

She discarded the shirt to the floor and shook her head angrily. She had to stop thinking about him!

'This can't be healthy…' she thought while getting up and walking to the kitchen. She needed a coffee.

When she opened the door that connected the bedroom with the kitchen she saw a shirtless Naruto standing behind the counter sipping on his mug and being in deep thoughts.

Her mouth instantly went dry.

He did not notice her coming in due to him being very worried about how everything will turn out.

In the past days NOTHING had been going according to plan!

Sakura walked up in front of him and took a cup to pour coffee in it. Startled Naruto stared at her.

"G-Good morning…"

At first, Sakura did not reply, but after taking a sip from her coffee she replied with a 'morning'.

"Care to explain why you are walking around shirtless?" she asked dryly.

Naruto frowned.

"Well, I could not get up because your hands were glued to my shirt and you were cuddling with it so I had to take it off in order to get up without waking you up."

Sakura blushed and turned away from him.

Naruto sighed before he spoke.

"We received a letter from that restaurant and they already planned everything for the wedding – and please do not ask me how they did that – anyways we have to be there at about 8:30 in the morning. Here" he gave her the letter to read for herself what was written in it.

She over read the letter fast and her eyes bulged out. This was so NOT happening. An angry frown made its way to Sakura's face.

"This must be a sick joke! This cannot be happening! Are they kidding me? How much worse can my life actually get?" By now Sakura already ripped the letter into pieces and was throwing it around.

"Ehh…" Naruto sweatdroped and stared at her in confusion. He did not like the situation either, but seriously? She was freaking out.

"WHAT?" She whirled around and stared at him. Her hair fell into her face as she turned around and dark green eyes glared at him through unruly pink bangs.

Naruto just could not resist.

He went to her and raised his arm.

The glare disappeared and she stared at him confused.

Naruto removed the bangs from her eyes so that he could see her now bright green eyes. After brushing them out of her face he bent down until they could feel the other's breath on their faces. Naruto looked at her through half-lidded eyes and licked his lips.

A voice deep down told her to back out and run away from Naruto before she did something she would regret. But staring in those sparkling blue eyes really – how could she go for the run?

After Naruto did not see her struggling, he leaned down and captured her lips with his own. The anger Sakura had felt before was blown away and she even forgot about it as she kissed him back with just as much force. Naruto turned them around so that she was leaning against the counter and pressed her against it. He slid his right leg between her thighs and felt her moan into the kiss, but unlike last time during the dance, they did not part.

He pulled her a little oversized shirt down and breaking the kiss he attacked her now exposed shoulder licking and sucking on her sensitive spot between her neck and shoulder. His arms encircled her waist and pressed her against his body. Sakura pulled on his air and let out a loud gasp. She went through his hair and pressed his head on her neck and clenched her eyes shut. The voice that warned her was already forgotten. She wrapped her legs around his body and pulled his head away from her chest and kissed him again. He roughly clashed his lips against hers and opened her mouth forcefully just to plunge his tongue through her lips. Sakura blushed and pulled on his shoulders as their tongues danced together. Naruto groaned as he grinded their hips together and elicited Sakura a surprised high pitched scream. He smirked and did it again a couple of times causing her to give out a low moan as she threw her head back.

She scratched his back as their lips moved together and one of her hands left scratch marks on his back and he growled and lightly bit her lips.

They heard a loud thump.

"U-Uhm….?"

Both of them stopped whatever they were doing only to turn around and see a shocked Shikamaru and a passed out Ino.

Naruto distanced himself from Sakura and wiped his lips with the back of his hand.

Sakura desperately tried to pull up her shirt, but ended up tearing it. She had to use one piece of what used to be her nightwear to cover up her chest and with a blush she disappeared behind Naruto.

"Sh-Shikamaru? Wh-What are you doing here?"

Shikamaru shook his head and then went back to his normal bored facial expression.

"I just wanted to check up on you two, but I guess that everything is…going quite well…"

Naruto's eyes widened.

"N-NO that was not what it looked like! We-We were just ehh rehearsing for the wedding tomorrow! Oh I haven't told you about that yet! Hehe! We were invited to have our wedding all over again and we just couldn't decline that offer. And-And we were practicing the kiss so that it would look realistic tomorrow! Yes exactly that is it! Nothing else!"

Shikamaru chuckled.

"So…you weren't heavily making out? I was mistaking?"

Naruto nodded and scratched the back of his head while a small blush crept onto his cheeks.

"I-I would never do that! I mean seriously-YOU KNOW me Shikamaru! My type is…different!" he said with a confident smile flashing on his face. He did not see Sakura turning around and facing the sink. Her head hung low and tears started falling into the basin.

She knew it.

She had let her guard down and it had happened again.

She would never learn, would she?

She ran away into the bedroom with her bangs covering her face and what was left of her shirt covering up her body.

Naruto saw her retreating back and raised an eyebrow. Why was she suddenly running off like that? Probably to change her clothes. She was surely very embarrassed about the situation.

Satisfied with himself he turned back to Shikamaru only to be greeted with a glare.

What was up with everybody?

"Shikamaru? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Shikamaru just shook his head and sighed.

"You really ARE an idiot. I apologize for insulting you since you are my boss, but seriously. You have to figure out what you have done on your own – I cannot help you with that, I am sorry."

As he said that he bent down to carry the fainted Ino and threw her over his shoulder like a sack full of potatoes. He exited the room with a wave and left Naruto alone to rethink what just happened in the past ten minutes.

What had he done?

He KISSED Sakura! Damnit! Why could he not control himself? It was just that when he had seen her angry green eyes she had looked so cute – so cute he just could NOT resist. His shoulders slumped and he scratched his cheek. Things were really turning into a disaster.

He walked to the bedroom and opened the door just to be met with a standing Sakura staring out of the window.

He sighed heavily, but got no response from Sakura.

"Hey? Is everything okay? I am sorry for what happened – it really SHOULD NOT have happened. I guess I just carried away. 'Twas a mistake and I assure you it won't happen again!"

Sakura did not turn around.

"Sakura? Hey-what-"

"Just leave me alone" her voice was heavy he noticed.

"I hate you so much. I really really should hate you! But I just CAN'T! I told myself I would forget everything that happened that night, but I keep getting flashbacks and it makes everything just harder! You were so… different, but now? Now you are such an asshole I could push you off the tenth floor of a building. But again I just cannot bring myself over to do it! I believed everything you said that day! And when I replied with 'I love you' I really meant it. But you obviously did not. You were obviously playing with my feelings. I just do not get how cruel someone can be. One time you hate me, then you kiss me, then you say it was a mistake!"

Naruto was speechless. He could not even utter a single word.

Sakura slowly turned around to reveal her puffy red eyes.

"And then…you kiss me again! Naruto decide! Do you hate me or love me? I have to know! So please I beg you!"

She went on her knees and held her hands together begging him.

"I beg you please stop playing with my feelings! I don't think I can take this any longer…-"

Her voice broke and she just started to sob uncontrolled. She hugged her stomach and bent down until her forehead was touching the floor.

Naruto was at loss of words. How should he react? He did not now that she had memories of what happened that night! He had acted like he was on crack! Revealing his deepest secrets and feelings. He had kept them a secret for such a long time. He had been really good at covering them up – even Shikamaru did not notice a thing he thought.

But now?

The woman he loved so much was crying her eyes out because of him. And exactly that he had been trying to avoid.

Naruto bent down until he was on knees and wrapped his arm around the shaking figure trying to comfort her.

But Sakura moved away from his touch like she came in contact with electricity. She crawled away until her back was hitting the heating system of the room and buried her face between her knees.

"Pl-Please leave me alone. Don't touch me! Ju-Just answer the goddamn question!"

Naruto sighed.

"You know…When I first saw you it was a Wednesday in a June. You had on a black pencil skirt and a pink blouse that was tucked into the skirt. Your hair was up in a perfect bun, but some bangs framed your beautiful face. You barely had make-up on and that just added to your incredible beauty. I know it sounds corny, but for God's sake I swear it was love in first sight! I simply could not take my eyes off you. I was even blushing! Me? Blushing? That like never happened! But you made it happen without putting much effort! I just loved your personality and everything about you, but I knew I could not have you. And since I could not act normal around you either I just decided to play the asshole of a boss. I know I hurt you, but it was never really my intention…

But please forgive me. I am so sorry! I know I am selfish! I knew we could not be together, but still took advantage of you that night and also several times some days ago and today. Please…"

Naruto neared Sakura again and hugged her, but this time she did not crawl away. She leaned into his touch.

She raised her head and looked at him through pink hair, but he could see the red eyes that she got from crying earlier. A few tears were still sliding down her cheeks.

"So what you are basically telling me is that…you love me?"

Et Fin :) Ha I am done here! Thank you all again for you reviews :) But now…I want 10 reviews before I even think about writing the next chapter!
