And here we are. Next chapter of cursed coming up, right now. I know, I know, it sure took me long enough. I'm sorry. Well, here we go.

Panther eyes: I think so too. Well, Sakura isn't really smart, is she?

Timespanned soul: Sasuke simply is that way. I mean, come on! Oh well.

Hugs Lee 13: Haha, it'll be alright, don't worry.

Hitomi Hotaru: Wow, I'm glad you like it. Fantasy simply rules, so yay! Thanks!!

Mrs.Rock: Aw, thank you. I'm really glad that you like it. I like writing it too. Heheh.

And that's that. Now, on with the story!!!

Come to your senses

Lee sighed as he let go of Sakura's hand. It was about time that he left. He didn't want to leave, he really didn't, but he didn't have a choice in the matter. And it probably was for the best anyways. Sakura needed her rest. And Lee couldn't quite promise to remain calm when she would open her eyes. He simply wasn't like that. He got up from his seat, looking at Sakura one last time before turning around… almost bumping into a very strange specimen. A feline. A cat with wings.

Lee was shocked to say the last, causing him to stumble backwards, landing harshly onto his backside. But that didn't matter much to him at that time. All he could think about was that cat, hovering above him, staring at him as if he was mental. Lee scrambled up again and protectively went to stand in front of Sakura. If Lee didn't know any better, he could've sworn that the cat sighed at his actions. "Get out of the way, human." The cat suddenly said. Oh great, so now it was talking?

Lee swallowed harshly. "What do you want with her?" He asked, feeling extremely stupid for talking to a cat. True enough, he was rather sure that he could take the animal on any time, but on the other hand, one should never underestimate his enemies, especially when they were completely strange and new. "I won't do anything to hurt her." The cat said, assuring Lee. Its voice sounded true and soothing, almost making Lee believe it. But Lee couldn't help but stay protective. He didn't want to make the mistake of trusting certain… creatures too fast.

"Then what is your business here?" Lee asked harshly. "State it." This time he was sure that he saw the cat sigh. And before he knew it, the feline had soared past him and landed next to Sakura's right ear. Lee turned towards her in shock. His speed had failed? How was that even possible. He growled and glared at the cat. "Get away from her." He threatened. The cat seemed unfazed though. "Stupid girl." The cat said. It seemed to be ignoring Lee completely now. "She is so confused with her feelings that she collapsed."

Lee blinked. What was that cat talking about. "Normally, I would never have showed myself to you, human." The cat said, directing itself towards Lee again. Its eyes pierced Lee's, causing him to stumble back a bit. Its powers seemed to shine trough his eyes, scaring even Lee. "But I must say that the situation has taken on an ugly twist." It sighed again. "What are you talking about?" Lee asked, still not sure how to react to the talking animal. "Fine." The cat said. "I will explain everything to you but only because I trust you."

Lee gulped. What was it talking about? It didn't even know him, so how could it trust him. "My name is Ordula." The cat said, introducing itself with a little bow off his head. "I have taken on the liberty of putting a curse on this girl." Ordula continued. Lee stared at Ordula quite shocked now. "You cursed her?!" He shouted loudly. "How dare you?! I…" "Silence!" Ordula interrupted. "Allow me to explain before you call out the entire hospital staff here." Lee obliged and shut his mouth, though he was still quite angry.

"I've seen the way this girl treats you." Ordula explained. "She hurts you, time after time, without ever giving you so much as a chance." Lee turned his head away a little bit. Ordula was right… but that didn't explain anything yet. "That other boy treats her the way she treats you, though." Ordula continued. "The boy realizes it, but Sakura doesn't. She still has a chance for true love and therefore I wished to give her that. I cursed her, giving her every pain you feel." Ordula looked at Lee to see how he'd react.

Lee didn't seem to fully understand though. "Every emotional pain, caused by her, will be backfired at her." Ordula continued. "But it seems that she didn't only feel the pain caused by Sasuke, and the pain caused by herself, but also a third pain. I can only guess that it was pain caused by you, and no one else." Ordula sighed. "The girl mixed and mingled her feelings so much that it became too hard to bare, and she collapsed. Lee stared at Ordula in shock. "This is partially my fault?" He asked worriedly.

Ordula shook its head. "Not really. Sakura has brought this upon herself." Ordula flew up again, hovering in front of Lee's face. "Do not tell this girl that I told you this, boy." Ordula said, threateningly. "I'm only telling you this because you can cure her from her current illness." Lee swallowed out of fear. "I will not tell her." He said. "I promise I will not." And he flashed the cat a nice guy pose he simply had to show. Ordula smiled. "Good." Lee swallowed, looking at Sakura again.

"So, what do you wish for me to do." Lee asked seriously. "I really wish to help her." A black void in space suddenly opened, Ordula heading towards it. "Simply kiss her. Give her a true kiss and her feelings will cancel disturbing her heart." More, she didn't say, and she disappeared into the black void, the tear in space closing once more. Lee gulped. Had this all been a dream? A small black feather hit the ground. Lee sighed. He guessed not. He turned to Sakura. He would have to kiss her?

Truly, he didn't mind kissing her, but he feared what her reaction would be. Truly, he only wished to help her and didn't want to take advantage of her, but would Sakura believe that? Either way, he had to do his best to help his love. And when she would awaken, he would do his utmost best to be hurt as dramatically as he always was by her actions, for it would hurt her as well. And he never wanted to hurt her. Now first, the most important task at hand needed to be fulfilled. He stepped towards Sakura. One kiss.
