Chapter Six
She never loved Itachi?
I almost wanted to scream in joy and do a happy dance.
...or something like that, but it was impossible with Sakura's arms wrapped around me.
"What do you mean?" I asked. "Why'd we go through messenger and make me flirt with him?"
"I'm sorry, that must've been awful for you."
Not really.
"But," Sakura continued, "I thought I did like Itachi."
"I don't get where you're going."
Sakura sighed. "Itachi only reminded me of the one I actually love."
Then I felt my heart stop.
I knew who she loved, and it made my stomach drop.
"I love you," Sakura finally whispered.
"Sakura, you know that's-"
"No!" She screamed as she tightened her grip on me. "It's not crazy..."
"No, you don't want it to seem crazy," I corrected her.
"My heart belongs to you, not Itachi."
"Well, my heart belongs with Itachi, not you," I blurted out.
Well, she had to learn that sooner or later.
She let go of me. "You-what? You...love Itachi? That's not right-"
"No, society may call it wrong, but falling in love with Itachi was one of the best things that happened to me."
"Sasuke..." She whispered as tears started to fall from her eyes, "it was because of me that you fell in love with him, wasn't it?"
"Well...partly," I said. I couldn't put full blame on her. It was partly what I said and how Itachi responded back.
Sakura laughed, shakily. "It's just my luck to fall in love with you..."
I wouldn't lie. I felt bad for Sakura. "If I was straight, I would be the perfect choice," I reassured her.
Sakura put her arms around me...again.
"Um, Sakura...? What are you-"
She interrupted me with her lips crashing down on mine.
I tried to push her away. I really, really, really did try, her grip was just too tight.
God, did she work out or something?
"Resistance is futile," Sakura whispered.
Hey, she stole my line.
"Why is that?" I asked.
"Well...the only way you can "talk to Itachi is through me...so, if you don't love me...there'll be no connection between you and Itachi."
That bitch!
"You wouldn't...Sakura, don't you want true love?" I asked.
She snarled, "There is no such thing as true love with you!"
Her lips attacked mine again.
Man, if this wasn't an abusive relationship, I don't know what is!
My eyes were wide open, looking around at the surroundings.
I couldn't breathe.
There he was.
"Itachi," I whispered, before Sakura's lips were on mine again.
Her kips separated from mine. She turned to look at Itachi. "Good, that's just what I wanted."
I looked away from them both.
I couldn't believe this.
Itachi just saw me making out with his girlfriend.
I was dead.
No, I wanted to be dead.
There was no chance for me and Itachi.
I felt like I was in a dead end, where there was only Sakura.
Yes, only Sakura and her abusive ways.
