(A/N I would like to say thanks to everyone who read, reviewed, alerted, and favortied my story. This wouldn't have been the story that it is now if it wasn't for all you guys. If you all know I have 99 reviews for this story, one more and I reached 100! You have no idea how much that makes me smile. I think with my last chapter everyone wants to kill Sasuke. I know I do! lol Hate to say this but with whats going to happen later on in the story everyone is going to hate him more (if thats even possible). Anyway lets get on with Chapter 14!)

Last Time:

She pulled back the covers and gently laid her down on the bed. Ino wiped the stray tears from Sakura's face and tucked her in. With her right hand she gently caressed her right cheek and lightly kissed her on the forehead. She turned to leave but suddenly a hand shot out and grabbed her wrist. Looking back she saw that Sakura was still asleep but she had a death grip on her hand.

She was about ready to pull herself out of Sakura's grip when the pink haired girl started speaking to her. "Please...don't...leave me..." She whispered making Ino's heart ache.

'Well I guess one night wouldn't hurt.' She thought to herself pulling the covers back and climbing in the bed with Sakura.

Instantly Sakura wrapped her arms around Ino's waist and brought the blonde closer to her body. Ino blushed at the sudden contact. She wondered how Sakura could sleep with her heart beating so fast, it sounded so loud to her. 'On second thought I think this night might be the death of me.' Ino thought in her head as Sakura pressed her head into her chest.

Now Ino was starting to freak out. She was just about to pull Sakura off of her when the girl started talking again. Actually it was more of a word, but it still had an effect on the blonde. "Ino-chan." Sakura whispered into the blonde's chest, hugging her tighter.

When Ino heard Sakura whisper her name almost instantly she calmed down. Once she calmed down she realized how tired she truly was. She looked down to her best friend and ran her hand through her soft pink hair. 'Don't worry Sakura you will never be alone again.' She vowed to herself before she fell into a comfortable sleep.

Regular talking and in present

Thoughts, lyrics, and flashbacks

Chapter 14: Stay With Me

Ino sighed as she waited for Sakura to return from the Hokage Tower, Tsunade had summoned her earlier for some reason.

"Man it's been like three hours. What's taking so long?" Ino asked as she played with her now cold dinner.

As if on cue the front door opened causing Ino to look in the direction of the noise. Standing in the doorway was one soaking wet Haruno. Ino looked outside the window to see if it was raining, but there wasn't a single cloud in the sky.

The blonde raised an eyebrow at her friend's appearance, earning a sigh of irritation from the said girl. "Some stupid academy kids were playing with some stupid water balloons." Was her reply as she took off her boots.

Instantly Ino started laughing at her friend making Sakura blush a little in embarrassment. Sakura took off her boots, her medical skirt and her vest. She started taking off her tank top that she decided to wear underneath her vest today as she made her way into the living room. Because the shirt was sticking to her body like a second skin she was having problems taking it off.

"Dammit fucking come off!" Sakura screamed to herself as her left arm got stuck in her shirt.

Ino decided to spare her from the evil piece of garment. She walked over to her friend and stood in front of her.

"Here let me help you with that." Ino said grabbing both ends of the tank top.

"No thank you I'm fully capable of doing this myself." Sakura replied trying to get out of Ino's grasp.

"I don't think so considering that your arm is stuck." Ino shot back not even bothering to hold back the amusement in her voice.

Sakura froze in embarrassment and it was all Ino needed. Quickly she pulled off the soaking wet tank top and threw it on the floor. The pinkette shivered as the cold air hit her now exposed body leaving goose bumps all over her arms.

"Jeez Sakura look at yourself you're freezing! Come on let's get you something warm to put on." Ino ordered walking away from her friend. She got as far as the kitchen before she turned around noticing that Sakura didn't follow her.

"Sakura come on you'll get sick if you don't put on a shirt." Ino told her. 'Even though I think you look amazing in only a bra.' She walked over to her and grabbed her hand trying to pull her with her but Sakura wouldn't budge.

"Sakura what the..." Ino was instantly cut off by a pair of warm lips placed delicately on top of hers. "hell..." She whispered as Sakura slowly pulled away from her a small smile on her face.

Ino was about to talk again but the young pinkette placed a finger over her mouth. The blonde's eyes widened in complete shock not believing that this was happening.

Sakura's soft yet elegant voice broke her out of her inner thoughts. "Please Ino just shut up." Then she removed her finger and replaced it with her lips.

Ino decided to take advantage of the situation and gladly kissed her best friend back. Sakura grabbed the front of the blonde's shirt and brought her closer to her body as Ino wrapped her arms around the slender girl's waist.

They broke apart after a couple of minutes, each girl breathing heavily. Suddenly a sly smirk crossed Ino's face causing Sakura to look at her wearily. Without a single word spoken Ino pushed Sakura onto the couch so that she landed on her back. Sakura didn't even have enough time to recover before Ino practically jumped on top of her and slammed her lips on top of hers in a passionate kiss.

Sakura moaned into the kiss giving Ino complete control. Quickly Ino ripped her top off not once breaking the kiss and rubbed her bare stomach across Sakura's. Using her left hand Ino gently massaged Sakura's breasts in a slow rhythm. The sounds of pleasure that the girl beneath her was making nearly made her climax but she held back wanting to make Sakura orgasm first.

As her tongue started to roam around the inside of Sakura's mouth, Ino's right hand started to slowly travel down her friend's body causing little goose bumps to appear on her stomach. Once her hand reached the hem of her pants Ino inwardly smirked knowing that she was going to enjoy what was going to happen next.

Slowly she slid her hand inside Sakura's pants and down to the most delicate part of her body. She marveled at how wet she was down there, her panties were completely soaked. 'Damn who would have thought that I turn her on as much as she turns me on!' She exclaimed to herself, tenderly biting her friend's lower lip.

Once again Ino broke the kiss and pulled back a little so that she could look at the girl before her. Sakura gave a look of disappointment before it turned into a face filled with ecstasy as Ino pressed her hand against her vagina.

Ino decided to give Sakura some more pleasure as she slowly slipped her index finger inside her super tight crouch.

"OHHHHHHHHHHH GOD INO DON'T STOP!!" Sakura screamed at the top of her lungs, pushing her hips upward.

The blonde slipped another finger in causing the girl to convulse in pleasure. Soon she started to move her fingers around observing how each little movement she made caused her friend to moan in pleasure.

"Ino..." She softly whispered her cheeks red from all the feelings swarming inside her head.

"Ino.." She said a little louder this time.

"INO!" Sakura screamed.

--

"Ino for the love of god wake the fuck up!" Sakura screamed at her friend who was sleeping peacefully in her room.

The blonde groaned in protest throwing a pillow at her friend's head, but instead hit the wall beside her head.

"Come on Ino wake up, I've been calling your name for fifteen minutes already!" Sakura yelled from the doorway.

Ino shot up straight from her bed and glared daggers at the pink haired girl. "Fine I'm up! Happy now!"

"Very." Sakura smiled brightly at the blonde before turning around to walk back into the kitchen.

Ino sighed to herself as she ran a hand through her hair. It had been almost two weeks since Sakura had told her about her past, since then Ino was having very naughty dreams that seemed to come straight out of the Icha Icha series. At first they were just little kisses and hugs, but everyday they seemed to be getting dirtier and dirtier.

"I swear they're slowly killing my self-control." Ino said bitterly as she threw the covers off of her. Once she did she immediately started to blush ten shades of red at what she saw.

Her pants were completely soaked and so were her sheets. She would have thought that she had a little accident if it wasn't for the fact that the substance was extremely sticky and that her right hand was positioned inside her underwear.

'OMG I TOUCHED MYSELF IN MY SLEEP!! I DID WORSE THAN THAT I MASTURBATED IN MY SLEEP TO MY BEST FRIEND!!' Ino screamed inside her mind as she quickly jumped out of bed and slammed the door shut.

Ino changed her sheets and threw her soiled ones in her closet waiting until Sakura was gone to wash them. She grabbed a set of clothes to wear for the day and slowly opened her front door to see where Sakura was. She heard her friend softly humming a song as she started to cook breakfast for both of them.

The blonde smiled softly at her friend's figure before she ran like she was on fire to the bathroom. If Sakura saw how soaked her pants were she would assume that she wet herself and Ino would never live it down.

After about thirty minutes in the bathroom Ino came out fully clean and clothed ready to take on the day. She noticed Sakura was sitting at the table waiting for her to sit down. Both their plates were set and remained untouched because they silently agreed not to eat until the other was with them.

"So what are we having today?" Ino politely asked as she sat down at the table.

Sakura smiled at her friend as she grabbed her fork. "Mac and cheese!" She yelled shoving a mouthful of the cheesy pasta into her mouth.

"Ummmm...Sakura not to be rude, but that's not a breakfast meal." Ino explained sweatdropping at Sakura's lack of manners.

The pink haired girl looked at Ino in shock. "But you can eat Mac and cheese anytime of the day."

"No you can't it's not good for you to have that early in the morning. Sakura you should know that, you're a medical ninja."

Sakura childishly stuck her tongue out at her friend. "So what if it's not good for me at least its tasty. MAC AND CHEESE IS THE SHIT!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs making Ino wonder how anyone could be this hyper in the morning.

"Fine, fine! You're right Mac and cheese is the shit." Ino warily agreed taking a bite of her breakfast. Sakura grinned at her friend before going back to eating.

Ino glanced back at her friend who was too busy eating to notice her staring. Ever since Sakura spilled her heart out about her past it seemed that she was slowly starting to act how she used to before Sasuke raped her.

Of course there were nights when she was completely terrified of sleeping alone and then there were other days when she would just break down and cry. Ino was always there to calm her down and wipe away her tears. She knew that Sakura was recovering and she would make sure that she was there as well to help mend her broken heart.

"So what are we doing today anyway?" Ino asked as she took a small bite of her Mac and cheese. Seriously Sakura made the weirdest things for breakfast. She wondered how the girl survived without Ino here to force her to eat food that was good for her. You have to admit that Naruto wasn't a good influence, what with his eating ramen every freaking day.

"Today is our final practice before the play tonight." Sakura said going for a second serving.

"Has it really been two months since we were forced to live together." Ino stated rather than asked. Damn that would mean that Sakura could kick her out of their apartment if she really wanted too. She still hadn't forgiven her father yet for what he had done to Sakura and her mother, so that meant that she had no place to live once this play was over. She really didn't want to tell Sakura about her problems because she felt that she already had too many problems to deal with right now. Sakura didn't need to focus on hers too.

"I know it seems like only yesterday that we were forced to live together." Sakura replied, looking a little sad.

'Wait is Sakura actually sad that this is almost over? That can't be, or can it? Arg, why does everything have to be so damn confusing.' Ino thought over inside her head as they silently kept eating together.

Ino then volunteered to do the dishes since Sakura cooked them breakfast. Not a word was spoken between the two as the blonde slowly washed the plates, silverware, and pans.

Suddenly Ino heard a soft melody coming from the pinkette behind her. The blonde smiled to herself as Sakura started to softly sing.

I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope
I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply, do..

This would happen from time to time. They would be by themselves with nothing to do and then all of a sudden Sakura would start singing. Not like Ino minded at all because she truly loved Sakura's voice.

I will be strong
I will be faithful
Because I am counting on a new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning yeah

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

'If only these lyrics were true. It's not like I love Sakura or anything I just wish that she would at least think of me as her best friend again. What am I saying, of course Sakura thinks of me as her best friend I'm just a worry wart.' Ino scolded herself as she slowly closed her eyes and let Sakura's voice completely take over her mind.

And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky
I'll make a wish send it to heaven
That'll make you wanna cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection
Of the highest power and lonely hours
The tears devour you

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

Ino felt something wrap around her waist but she was so into her friend's voice that it really didn't register into her mind until the person started to hold her tightly.

Oh, can't you see it baby?
Don't have to close your eyes
'cause it's standing right before you
All that you need will surely come

I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope
I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply, do..

The blondes eyes widened in shock as she realized that Sakura was holding her tightly from behind. She heard a quiet sniffle coming from the girl as something wet started to soak the back of her shirt. Sakura's grip started to tighten more as she continued to sing.

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

'Is she really crying for me? Or is it for something else? I've never really seen her cry over something that didn't have any point so what is it?' Ino thought to herself as she pulled her hands out of the soapy water.

(I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me)

"I wanna stand with you on a mountain." Sakura stated rather than sing burying her face into Ino's back. "Ino-chan when this is all over please don't go. Please don't leave me..." She whispered, but Ino heard her loud and clear.

Gently Ino laid her hands over Sakura's as the girl continued to cry into her back. "Do you really mean that Sakura? Do you really want me to stay here and live with you?"

The girl didn't answer her because she was too chocked up, instead she nodded her head frantically. Instantly Ino's heart swelled in pleasure at her friend's actions. She pulled Sakura's arms apart and turned herself around so that she was face to face with her best friend.

Sakura was still as beautiful as ever even with those tears rolling down her cheeks, but Ino knew that she looked like an angel when she smiled.

The pinkette looked up at her friend with curious eyes. "So do you want to stay with me?" She asked cutely.

Ino laughed at her friend, reaching out to wipe her tears away. "Sakura sometimes you can be such a baka." At this Sakura started to frown about ready to start crying again. "I never had any intentions of leaving you in the first place." Ino stated a grin adorning her beautiful features.

Sakura squealed in happiness and practically tackled Ino as she gave her a huge hug. The blonde felt the air get knocked out of her as her back slammed into the sink behind her. The young Haruno was so happy that she forgot to not use her full strength which wasn't a good thing for Ino.

"Sa...kura...I...ca...n't...brea...the." Ino chocked out as she slowly started to turn blue.

Quickly Sakura let go of her friend grinning sheepishly. "Sorry, sometimes I forget that I have super strength."

"You're just lucky that I can withstand your abuse." Ino joked with Sakura, earning a glare from the other girl.

Then she looked at the clock to her right and sighed. "Well I guess we should head to rehearsals."

Ino smiled at her Sakura, draping an arm over her shoulders. "Just be glad that this crap is almost over." She said as they walked out the door.
