Pain

Lee seemed to be really confused right now. And who could blame the boy? Even Sakura didn't understand herself. What had she just done?! Sakura walked over to the counter to pay for what they had eaten, still in a daze, not even sure she would be able to fish out the right amount of cash. "Er…how much?" she asked. The waiter shoved a bill towards her. Her eyes took in the numbers and she decided to try and get the right amount out of her purse anyways.

"Allow me." A voice suddenly said, and Sakura looked next to her to find Lee shoving a decent amount of cash to the waiter. "You can keep the change." He said, smiling. Sakura stared at him. "What?" he asked. Sakura just sighed and subconsciously grabbed his hand pulling him with her. "Just come with me." She said. Lee let himself be pulled with her while smiling a bit uncertain. And that's how they found themselves out in the open again, suddenly bumping into no one else but Sasuke.

Sakura felt her heart jump, and a smile appeared on her blushing face. Sasuke was looking at Sakura's hand holding Lee's and she immediately let go, a short pain suddenly shooting trough her heart. She chose to ignore it. "Hi Sasuke." She greeted cheerfully. "Good day Sasuke-kun." Lee greeted, being his polite self again. Sasuke didn't respond either of them. He simply turned and continued his walk. Sakura ran towards him, once more ignoring the growing pain she felt. "Sasuke, wait up!" she called.

Sasuke stopped harshly, Sakura almost bumping into him and turned around angrily. "Leave ma lone." He growled. "You're annoying." Sakura swallowed. "B-But Sasuke, I-I just…" she started but didn't get the chance. "Look, I couldn't care less about you, when will you get that?" Sasuke growled. And that was the moment.

Colours were swirling. Voices were echoing loudly in Sakura's head. She felt her head spinning and her heart twitching in tremendous agony. She clenched her eyes shut, trying to bite away the pain, at the same time losing the vision of Sasuke slowly walking away from her. She gasped for breath a little, the pain not stopping. It only grew. Tears were streaming down her face. Why did he have to be that way? Why? Another sharp pain tugged on her heart as she remembered Lee as well. She felt even worse, even thinking of him. But why? She didn't understand. She was losing everything. Her dreams, her hopes, her heart,… her mind. And all colours swirled into blackness as the last thing she realised was the sense of falling and landing into two soft arms.

Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Lee saw Sakura crash down and immediately jumped forward to catch her. "Sakura, speak to me, what is wrong?" he asked fearfully. But Sakura had already fainted. His worry only grew. Sasuke had turned around at his shouting and was surprised to find Sakura collapsed onto the ground. He swiftly walked towards the girl, held in Lee's arms. Lee had rather he didn't approach. He couldn't hate Sasuke simply because Sakura liked him instead of Lee, but he certainly wasn't fond of him, degrading Sakura like he did every time again. Every damn time.

Sasuke kneeled down to where Lee sat, Sakura's breathing harsh. Lee felt his own grip tighten. Sasuke simply ignored this and touched Sakura's forehead with his right hand. He frowned. "She has a fever." He stated calmly. "It's pretty bad. You should get her to a hospital." His eyes met Lee's and he found the boy to be glaring at him. Not caring if he did or not, he simply kept staring impolitely. "Can I count on you to do that?" he asked. Lee growled. "Since when do you care about her?" he asked. He got up from the ground, with Sakura in his arms nonetheless.

"She's my team-mate." Sasuke responded slyly. "If she is hurt, the team is hurt. But I don't love her if that's what you mean." Once more, his eyes pierced Lee's soul, but Lee didn't let him invade it so easily. Right now, the matter of most importance was Sakura. So he turned away from the Uchiha and started running towards the hospital. He could only wonder what was wrong with Sakura. He had never seen her in this sort of state before. He rushed towards the tall building as fast as his legs could carry him. He wondered how a person could feel so light and tiny.

And then finally, he reached the building he wanted so desperately to get to, and opened the doors with the full force of his back, clumsily stumbling inside. He pressed the girl protectively against his chest as he looked around, searching for someone who would help him. Not many people had turned to look at him, so he walked up to a nurse who didn't seem to be too busy. "Excuse me…" he panted, trying to be polite rather then stressed out. The nurse turned around and immediately looked at the girl in his arms. "Can I help you?" she asked. "Yes." Lee said in relief. "She needs to be taken care off." Lee said. "She's sick." The nurse nodded as she felt Sakura's forehead.

"Please take her inside that room." She said, pointing at a door. "I will inform the doctor immediately." Lee obliged and went inside the room with more then a little bit of difficulty. When he opened the door, he walked inside, noticing that the room looked oddly familiar. He smiled a little as he finally recognized it as the room he had once been put in. He sighed and put Sakura down onto the bed with much care. He then closed the door he and left open. Saying that Lee was worried was a huge understatement. He cared so much for this girl, if anything ever happened to her, he didn't know what he would do.

He sat down on the bed and stroked her face gently. The tender moment didn't last long though because a few seconds later, a doctor entered. Lee was relieved to say the least. He got up from the bed and let the doctor do his work. Sakura seemed to be in pain. The doctor did a few tests, lots of them with his chakra. Half an hour later or so, he stopped, frowning. "This is odd." He said to himself. "Please tell me what is wrong with her." Lee begged. The doctor looked at him in confusion. "She is experiencing a very high fever but…" he seemed to think it over. "I can't find a cause for this. Also, for some reason… and this is very strange… her heart looks like a string of chakra has tightened around it… but there's nothing wrong with it, it's…very strange. Technically, she's really healthy." Lee didn't know what to say. "But then…" what was going to happen now? "We'll keep her here one night for observation." He said. "You can stay here for one more hour sir, but then I would like for you to leave, alright?" Lee nodded in understanding. "Yes sir."
