Chapter Seven

A/n: Hahaha this will be the last chapter. How can you fit a mission in ONE chapter ? Well… there will be a sequel. This chapter will be in Sakura's point of view, but if some people want I could write another chapter seven from Kakashi's point of view. Just ask xD.

Why did I think so much of what he said? Why did my heart feel as if it split in two? I'm in a position where I thought I'd never be, in Sasuke's arms half asleep. They both dragged me off and took me to Sasuke's house. From what I remember Naruto laid me down on the sofa and Sasuke sat next to me, I must've felt tired. So they do care what happens to me, but what gets me is how could Kakashi say that? Maybe I took the whole thing a little too seriously, I mean I think he was just saying it because Naruto and Sasuke were there. The next thing I knew someone knocked the door and Sasuke gently laid me down on the sofa.

"You're not welcome here Kakashi," Damn it..

"Let me talk to Sakura," He said to him calmly

"No," I'm surprised no-one has shouted yet.

"KAKA-SENESI, SAKURA DOESN'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU!" Typical Naruto

"Naruto, hush up," I managed to croak out, where's my voice?

"Either way, I have to talk to all of you," Kakashi pushed him self past Sasuke and sat next to me, I sat up immediately. Naruto reacted and sat next to me, pretty embarrassing, I picked up a pillow and covered my face with it.

"What do you want Hatake?" Sasuke's voice was cold as ever

"Mission," That word tore me in two

"You and Sakura, or all four of us," Naruto had calmed down.

"All four of course, like you'd let me go on a mission with just Sakura and myself,"

"He has a point,"

I removed the pillow from my face "Yeah well… I'm not going I REFUSE to go," My voice had found me again.

"You have to go Sakura, Tsunade's orders,"

"Well I'll to talk to Tsunade myself," I stood and walked past the three men "See you later Sasuke, Naruto, have fun on your mission," I gave them a small wink and made my way out the door. The nerve of that man, walking in as if nothing was wrong, calmly telling all of us that we had a mission together. I could hear faint shouting of the three men as I ran off. I had nowhere to go, well everyone has somewhere but I felt as if I had nowhere. I felt so out of place without it, not talking to him is killing me slowly inside. I'm going to hold my ground, no way can he get away with it. But maybe I'm blowing this out into a big problem, when all I'd have to do is talk to him. I think I'll drag it out.

"Tsunade-sama?" I slowly opened the door and all I heard was a lot crash

"Sakura!"

"I take it you've been drinking again," I sighed

"N-n-no of course not, what gave you that idea!"

"Your worlds are hurried and you've just hidden your sake, and let's face it you're not the best liar,"

She gave a slight cough "Did you want something Sakura?"

"Yes I did actually, I don't want to go on this mission with Kakashi, Naruto and Sasuke,"

"Do you have a valid reason ?"

"I just don't want to go, please don't make me Tsunade-sama,"

Tsunade leaned back into chair slightly, "Give me a good reason Sakura and I'll think about it, they leave tomorrow at 5,"

"I wont go then,"

She raised her voice "YOU WILL BE GOING!"

"Wont" My voice began to waver, arguing with the Hokage… not the best thing to do.

"Kakashi asked for this mission himself, you will be going,"

"He asked?" She'd gotten my full attention "I've gotta go somewhere, byeee," I ran out the door, where am I going? I have no idea.

My speed kept increasing every second, the people in Konoha became one big blur until one silver blur came in front of me. I'm gunna crash into it…

"Whoa, you almost winded me Sakura,"

I slowly opened my eyes, I knew who it was before I eventually opened them. His voice was distinctive to me. His hair was distinctive to me. Everything about him was distinctive.

"S-s-sorry.." Where's my voice ?

"It's fine," He got up and held his hand out for me. Was I going to take it? "It's a hand Sakura," Guess he saw me staring. I quickly grabbed it before I changed my mind. He slowly pulled me up ending up closer than I'd like.

"Thanks…" I stepped back and turned in the opposite direction.

"S-s-Sakura…" Whoa did he just stutter. The Kakashi stuttered. I stopped immediately and faced him. He grabbed my and pulled me into his chest and whispered two words "I'm sorry," He let go and disappeared. If we're going on a mission together, maybe I should talk to the boys. I don't want to sort out a argument between them all. Sasuke's house had a small note on the door, for me, it said something quite disturbing.

Sakura,
Naruto and myself have gone to find Kakashi. I can't guarantee what's going to happen. So if you do come here don't come looking for us, we don't want you to get hurt even more. We should be back at around 6:30. See you later.
Sasuke.

Damn it…

Chakra to my feet, I speeded around Konoha looking for the three idiots. I haven't checked our old training ground yet. I heard the thunderous voices of my idiots.

"RASENGAN!"

"CHIDORI!"

"RAIKIRI!"

"No…"

"Stop it…"

"STOP IT NOW!" Nearly all my chakra went into my fist as I slammed it down the ground making it unstable, different pieces of rock mixed with dirt flung all three of them in different directions.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THREE PLAYING AT!" Whoa loud voice or what? I'm quite proud of myself

"S-Sakura?" I think I injured all three, Naruto seems to be the least affected.

"Get up all three of you, I'll take you back to my house where I will treat any wounds you have then quite possibly scream at you some more," Sasuke and Kakashi struggled more to get on their feet. Did I hurt them that much?

"Naruto, carry Sasuke, I'll carry Kakashi," I walked over to him and pulled him on his back.

"Put me down Sakura,"

"No," Simple yet straight to the point.

"Dobe.."

"Baka!"

Typical

I slowly opened my front door careful not to drop Kakashi, he was using up the last of my chakra. "Naruto take Sasuke into the bathroom, there should be medicine cream and other things as well,"

All I heard was a "Hn" from Sasuke. I hurried into my bedroom and gently put Kakashi on my bed.

"Saved your ass once again," I sat next to him "Take your shirt off, I need to check for injuries,"

"Saved me? I don't think so, you could've killed us if you added more chakra,"

"But, I have excellent control, so I doubt it. If I didn't show up well…"

"I'm sorry Sakura," He slowly took his shirt off, not even a scratch

"What the hell…?"

"Wow…you made me feel fast," He began to stand up I simply pushed him down again

"What are you playing at ?"

"I was sort of hoping you'd talk to me first before you checked for wounds,"

My stare couldn't meet his own.

"Why can't you even look at me?"

I turned away from him.

"Why can't you even face me?"

I was just about to walk out my room.

"Why can't you be in the same room as me,"

That really hit me, it hit me more than any punch could. It even felt worse than when Sasuke left all those years ago. Does this man even know what he's doing to me? I can't stand it anymore, my heart begs for him. Pleads for him. He's one of those addictions that you just can't shake off, no matter how far you go. I wonder if he feels the exact same way, that it hurts to be away from each other in a long period of time. It hurts even more when I can't be close to him. It just hurts when I'm not with him fall stop.

"It's getting late, you should go," I just managed to spit out. What the hell was I doing ?

"Sure…" In a poof of smoke, he was gone.

"SAKURA-CHAN!" I think I'll have to teach Naruto to calm down a bit, you wouldn't think he's 24.

"What Naruto?"

"Wanna go to the pub with me and Sasuke?"

"Sure, why not? I'll meet you down there, I wanna shower and get changed,"

When they finally left my apartment I went for a long hot bubbly bath carefully lathering my hair. Jumped out, dried it, curled it. Shoved half of it up with bangs framing my face. I put my new little black dress on , the back was crossed and it wasn't one of those tight dresses either. I could breathe which was a bonus in any good looking dress, and it showed off my figure. It also is one of my favourite dresses what no-one has seen. Until now. I think I have an obsession with black dresses…I put on my matching black stilettos and slowly made my way to the pub.

"Whoa… Sakura, dressed to kill," Naruto.. He has his cute moments.

"I think I'll take that as a complement,"

"So you should,"

I smiled at him "How are you Sasuke? Did you get any wounds?"

"I'm fine, just a small cut across my cheek"

"I nearly didn't notice the henge, want me to have a look?"

"If you want," Whoa … that was one big cut

"I'm really sorry Sasuke," I raised my hand to his cheek and examined it, the cut was pretty it deep. I focused chakra to my hand and began to heal it. "It should be done in a minuet," I felt a presence outside in the cold, instead of moving on it froze there. Staring at something perhaps? Then I recognised it… Damn you Kakashi.

"I've gotta go, I'm really sorry," I stood up to leave and almost tripped over my own feet, damn shoes. I quickly took them off and started to run to Kakashi's apartment.

"KAKASHI, OPEN UP!" No answer. "KAKASHI!" He wouldn't ignore me on purpose… would he? If he wasn't in he'd be a the KIA memorial stone. I'm gunna need a bath after this, I checked my feet and they were basically black. I made my way to the stone.

"KAKASHI! KAKASHI WHERE ARE YOU!" Damn..

"Sakura, stop shouting," How could he be so calm ?

"What you saw, isn't what you think…" I made my way slowly to him.

"You have no idea what I think," I've never seen this side of him

"But Kakashi.. I didn't me-" Cut off

"You don't mean a lot of things Sakura, but life goes on,"

"I'm sorry Kakashi, I shouldn't of taken what you said to seriously. It's a hard thing to describe when you said that," Was I about to cry?

"I didn't mean to say that, you should know that. I wasn't thinking when I said it. But what about you and Sasuke? I know how you used to feel, we all did. Have those feelings resurfaced?" Was there a pang of jealousy in his voice?

"He was injured from my own attack on his cheek, he tried to mask it. I said I would heal it because it was my fault"

".." Did I make Kakashi speechless?

"I would've thought you would've picked that up,"

"Heh… suppose I was jealous," Kakashi you idiot.

I wrapped my small arms around his neck, I had to stretch for it though. But it was worth it. I felt strong arms around my waist. "This is how it should be, Kakashi, me here with you," I let go of him "I've gotta go, I have a mission with a handsome silver haired ninja tomorrow, I need my sleep,"

"Really? I have a mission with a beautiful pink haired kunoichi who might I add looks amazing in that black dress of hers, but also needs her shoes," Damn it… I must of left them outside Kakashi's door

"Crap, they're outside your door," I smiled at him "Can you bring them over when you have a chance?"

"Sure," In a poof of smoke he was gone, it a swirl of petals I was gone

My alarm went off at exactly 4:30. I had a quick shower last night and jumped into bed. I put on my jounin uniform and put my hair up in a ponytail with my bangs framing my face. My headband around my forehead with my bangs either side. I grabbed something small for breakfast and drank some water. Sorted my bag out with the usual camping stuff and added a few scrolls. By the time I was finished it was 5:15. Damn it. I rushed to the gates and saw three men staring at me.

"YOU'RE LATE!" Naruto sure had a pair of lungs on him

"Sorry, I forgot where I was supposed to meet you, so I've been wondering around for ages," I smiled at him

"Well it was stupid to forget," I laughed at him

"Hey Sasuke,"

"Hey,"

"Kakashi, come here," He walked slowly towards me, I pulled him down to my level grabbed his mask down. My lips touching his. He put his arms around my waist and took control. I whispered in his ear "I win the bet,"

A/n… Gawd one annoying chapters to write. I wasn't too sure whether to stop at the pub thing. And then write a mini chapter. I just couldn't be bothered

I'm not sure when I can write the mission, school work is building up. Stupid year 10

Meg-Chan get writing, I've finished now xD
