Sweet Sensations

XxXxXxXx

Racing towards the recovery room, Mayou opened the door and stood by Itachi's bed. Looking at his sleeping face as he dreamt on... She sighed and thought it better if she came back when he was awake.

Turning on her heel, Mayou was about to exit the room but heard a movement from behind her.

"Hello Mayou." Itachi said giving the woman a warm smile.

There was a question on his mind that Itachi couldn't help but ask the blue haired woman.

"I was just curious and wanted to, well... Who is the father of Sakura's unborn child?"

Looking away from the Uchiha, Mayou balled a fist and felt her anger boiling inside.

He doesn't even know that he's the father...

"Well? Can you please tell me Mayou...?"

Contemplating his words, the older woman looked Itachi in the eye and parted her lips.

"You're the father!" She screamed and neared him.

"Dammit, you're the father of her child!"

Shocked, Itachi stared wide eyed at Mayou who continued to rant on about it. His body began to tremble as he was met face to face with the truth...

"I'm... I'm the what?"

Crimson met sky blue...

Chapter 20: Past Realizations

XxXxXxXx

The tension in the room was thick... Mayou stared Itachi in the eyes as his body began to shake uncontrollably. He still couldn't believe that what Mayou had just revealed to him was entirely true!

She's lying!

This all has to be some kind of joke!

Gripping the collar of his shirt, Mayou brought her face closer to his and began to yell all over again, though this time much more loudly.

"It's the truth Itachi!"

He began to shake his head in an attempt to rid himself of her words.

"No! I can't be the father! I would have remembered!" He yelled at the same volume as the blue haired woman.

I've had enough of this!

"That's because you have amnesia!"

A confused look etched its way onto Itachi's face as he stared at the female Akatsuki member before him.

"Stop lying!" He screamed as he brought the blankets up to his chin.

Can't you see this is for your own good Itachi...?

And for Sakura's...

Doing one final thing before leaving the room, Mayou gripped the blankets and pulled them off of the eldest Uchiha who stared at her in utter shock.

"This is eating Sakura up inside..."

"Remember that."

By the time the door had closed and Mayou left Itachi alone once again, he had ran his fingers through his unruly hair and let out a deep sigh.

I guess this is what I get for being so damn curious...

He had tried that following day to desperately find comfort in sleep, but his dreams only returned to the encounter with Mayou. When the truth was revealed to him... Sighing in frustration, Itachi contemplated what Mayou's last words had been...

This is eating Sakura up inside...

Remember that.

Shifting from different sides, Itachi decided to get a bite to eat before once again attempting to fall asleep with head full of questions...

What am I suppose to do now?

As he moved down the corridor, Itachi noticed that Sakura was not too far ahead of him. She looked exhausted, her hair was in tangles and her stomach was as enlarged as ever! He had looked away when she passed by him, that was the first thing that caused her to stop and turn her head to look at Itachi's retreating form.

"Itachi..." She whispered.

The eldest Uchiha stopped in his tracks as he urged himself not to look back, though he had lost terribly and ended up looking into a pair of jade eyes. He let Mayou's words sink in as he stared at Sakura... I guess he really believed what she had said when he actually got a look at her.

This was eating her up inside...

"Itachi... I wanted to know if your eyes have improved since the last time I treated them."

He couldn't come up with any words to answer the rosette haired kunoichi, so instead he resorted to nodding his head. Turning on her heel, Sakura walked into her room and shut the door behind her.

It still continued to rain even after 2 days! Sakura thought it had stopped at one point during the night, but soon after continued throughout the day... The weather reflected on how she was feeling at the moment...

Grey clouds billowed over the usually blue skies and hid the bright sun, shading the world below in shadows... Making everything look absolutely miserable!

Why does my life have to be a living hell...?

XxXxXxXx

Gulping down his last bit of tea and finishing off the last piece of toast, Itachi left the kitchen and headed back towards the recovery room, where hopefully he would fall into a deep sleep and wouldn't awaken until late afternoon...

As soon as he lay in the comfortable bed a vision... images of some sort flashed before his eyes and nearly startled him!

-

"Sakura what's the matter?"

She exhaled and took a good long look at Itachi before blurting out the answer.

"I'm pregnant!"

Itachi simply stared at his lover, his mind still registering what Sakura had just told him. Sakura looked away from him, her bangs masking her eyes rimmed with tears.

She slowly stood up and went to walk away from Itachi but he gripped her wrist. Pulling her back down on him, Itachi stroked her soft hair as he placed a kiss on her cheek.

"Are… are you mad?" Sakura managed to breathe out.

"No, I could never be mad at you." Itachi said truthfully.

Sakura turned in his lap and wrapped her arms around the Uchiha. She could feel her eyes grow heavy until she could no longer stay awake. Her body went limp and her emerald eyes were closed.

Itachi let a smile grace his lips as he covered the kunoichi up in the blankets. Soon after he took his rightful place beside her and fell into a deep sleep.

Never be mad at you.

-

Rubbing his temples, Itachi let his eyes fall closed until a deep sleep took him over and he was sleeping like a child in no time.

-

Smoke filled the room, making Sakura cough and cover her mouth. They need to get out of the castle and quick! The kunoichi got the attention of Kisame who had knocked down Kabuto for what seemed to be the fifth time. Itachi was still in the battle with Orochimaru and he seemed pretty damn intent on finished it with or without his life.

"Get out of here!" Itachi ordered.

Sakura dropped to her knees, she hadn't just heard that! Itachi was going to stay and fight Orochimaru! Even though the entire castle was on fire! Sakura stood on her two feet and sprinted towards the fighting Itachi.

"No Itachi! Escape with the both of us!" Sakura cried.

Kisame was quick to react; he ran in Sakura's direction and took hold of her arm, keeping her from going any further. She used all her strength to free herself but Kisame was too strong. He told her to calm down, but all she did was struggle further.

"Kisame… Take care of Sakura for me." The Uchiha said loud enough for him to hear.

-

Sweat beaded on his forehead as crease marks appeared on the skin. Itachi breathed in rapid breaths and could tell that his heart was beating a thousand times faster than usual...

A nightmare!?!

This was he guessed was suppose to be a memory. He had dreamt of a memory that he couldn't even remember as even happening! The Akatsuki member could still hear Sakura's agonizing screams for him to get out. It haunted him...

For some reason, Itachi envisioned an emerald necklace of some sort. He was handing it to Sakura and she had thanked him from the bottom of her heart. That was now something that Itachi could not get out of his head at the moment! Was it all true or was this something he had just imagined? A dream maybe...?

He couldn't even explain it...

It was like his feet had a mind of their own, because right now he was subconsciously walking out of the recovery room and towards a large wooden door, and far some reason it seemed somehow familiar to him...?

Without notice, he pushed it open and now looked at the sleeping figure of Haruno Sakura. Her back was facing the door, but even so, Itachi could tell that she was fat asleep and didn't show any signs of waking up anytime soon...

Stepping into the room, Itachi was nearly thrown backwards onto the hard stone floor. It felt as if there was a thick fog filling the room and making it harder for him to focus, instead his mind went elsewhere...

-

Itachi flicked her bud with his tongue which made Sakura throw her head back and wrap her legs around his waist. Itachi let a finger enter her and then added a second; still Sakura gave out pleasure filled moans.

When Itachi felt like he could endure any longer, he pulled out his fingers which were coated in cum. Itachi placed his lips on Sakura's swollen ones and slowly came down on her frail form.

The head of his member entered her and stretched her. Sakura let out a quiet whimper and went still, letting her body adjust to Itachi's size.

Feeling her hips buck forward, ushering him to continue. Itachi buried his aching member inside of her, right to the hilt. Sakura gave out seductive cries and felt herself nearing her limit.

Itachi called out her name several before he spilled his seed and pulled out of the kunoichi. Both, exhausted, they stayed wrapped up in each others arms and breathed in one another's intoxicating scent. Sakura let a lone tear roll down her cheek and buried her face in the crook of his neck.

-

Reaching the bed where the kunoichi slept on, Itachi reached out a hand and loosely gripped the chain of a silver necklace around her slender neck. He traced the heart which had small emeralds surrounding it.

-

"It was my mother's…" He finally said.

"She had wanted me to give it to the woman I love…"

Sakura stood from her comfortable position on the bed and took hold of Itachi's hand.

"Thank you."

She stood on tip-toes and placed a small kiss on his lips set in straight line.

-

Emerald bore into crimson. Sakura stared wide eyed at Uchiha Itachi who was practically on the bed with her. His fingers were still carefully holding onto the chain, as if it were the only thing holding Sakura and him together as one...

"Sakura-chan..." He said in barely a whisper.

Her hand, gently took hold of his much larger one. His face held certainty and Sakura's held nothing but hope... hope that all the past events had been some kind of a nightmare and that Itachi had never lost his memory in the first place.

"Did I give you this?" He asked in confusion.

Letting her hand back to the comfortable bed, Sakura parted her lips.

"Yes, you did Itachi..."

He looked away sheepishly as he replied truthfully.

"I can barely remember doing so, though..."

Stopping himself from finishing off the sentence, the Uchiha left the bed, left Sakura to lie in bed full of questions. He did however take one last look at the kunoichi before disappearing out the door and around a corner, back into the recovery chamber...

Sakura on the other hand, she wanted to run after him and embrace him so terribly, but her heart twinged with sadness, as if something were piercing it from the inside and making her bleed...

Is Itachi beginning to regain his memories?

I want to know...
