"The Longest Month Ever"

Chapter 14

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEE---

Sasuke Uchiha slammed his hand down on the annoying alarm clock that read 7:00 A.M. He sat up tiredly and looked at the empty spot beside him; a frown set itself upon his face. That spot didn't look good with no one in it…and he was determined to fix that.

'Hm…should I tell her that he's coming over today?...nah." Ino thought as she washed the rest of the dishes. If Sakura was too stubborn to even try to talk to him, then Ino would just have to leave her no choice. Anyway, she would have to go to Sasuke's sometime or another; I mean she still had all her clothes there.

She snapped out of her thoughts when she heard a tired yawn behind her. Sakura walked in the Kitchen, still in her pajamas.

"Morning Forehead!" Ino greeted loudly. Sakura groaned. "You want some breakfast, I made some---" She was cut off by Sakura. "No thanks…I want cookies…"

Ino looked at her strangely. "Okay…" She went to the cabinet. "Wait!" Sakura's voice stopped her once again. Ino stopped and glared at her, with her hands on her waist.

Sakura walked beside her and took out a box of cookies…in the shape of bears. And then also grabbed a bowl. "They need heads…" She mumbled before walking back upstairs.

Ino stared after her, confused as ever. "The hell…?" She mumbled to herself as she scratched her head. "Weird girl…"

"So…you're going to talk to her today?" Konoha's number one loud mouth asked his best friend.

"Aa, if she'll listen…" Sasuke replied. Staring straight ahead. Naruto nodded in understanding. "Well yeah, I mean if I were her I wouldn't want to talk to you either!"

Sasuke glared at him. "Not helping." He stated.

"I know!" Naruto answered back dumbly. Sasuke gave him a quick smack on the head. "OW! TEME!" Naruto yelled, holding his now injured head. "I was only trying to help!" He defended himself.

Sasuke gave him another glare. "How is that trying to help!?"

"Uh…" Was all Naruto could say. "Hn. That's what I thought."

"Uh…Hey. Don't you guys have your last appointment with Dr. Hikari not tomorrow but the next day?" Naruto said, too lazy to think of what day that would be. (A/N: It would be a Friday just to let you know.)

"Aa…but I couldn't care less about that right now." He answered back. A few quiet moments passed before the Uchiha decided to get up. "I'm going for a walk." He stated simply before walking out of Ichikaru. Naruto stared after his friend. 'Wow…I've never seen Sasuke like this before…" He thought to himself, and decided that he didn't like it.

Sakura stared angrily at the next unfortunate cookie that she was about to eat. A bowl sat next to her, filled with only the bodies of the bear cookies she was eating. 'Stupid Sasuke…stupid men!' She thought as she tore off another head, throwing the rest of the cookie into the bowl.

She sighed again, she would never admit it out loud…but she missed the jerk 'Ugh…I can't believe I miss him…' She thought to herself again. She flopped down on her pillow.

"I hate feeling this way…" She mumbled to herself out loud. She missed him so much, but at the same time was angry at him. 'That and the fact that he thinks I'm a total whore…'

She clenched her fists in anger and confusion. Why the hell would he even think that? And what exactly did he see that made him think that in the first place? 'Someone has to be responsible for this…' She thought again as she sat back up and started munching angrily on the cookies again.

It was already eight o'clock, and Sasuke had decided that he had already waited long enough, it was now or never. 'Sakura…I will get you back.' He thought confidently to himself as he knocked on Ino's door. After a few moments Ino answered, and looked almost a little relieved to see him.

"Good, if you weren't going to come soon I was going to have to force her." Ino sighed. "That girl is driving me crazy! Why do you both have to be so stubborn!?"

"Aa. Can I see her?" He asked, ignoring Ino's earlier question, that and the fact that she could freakishly change moods drastically. "Hai hai. And just to let you know, she didn't know that you were coming tonight." She answered as she let him in. "Third door to the right." She directed him as she pointed up the stairs. Sasuke simply nodded as he made his way up.

Before he knew it he was already standing outside the door. He took a deep breath as knocked. "Come in!" He voice was heard from across the door. God how he had missed that voice.

Bracing himself, he opened the door. There she was, still in her pajamas which consisted of a simple pair of shorts and a tank-top. She was looking out the window. "Oh, Ino I wanted to as—" She froze in mid-sentence as she turned around to find that it most certainly was not Ino.

"S-sasuke…" She said softly, before her face expressed her newly formed anger. "Excuse me." She said coldly as she tried to walk past him. Sasuke grabbed her arm, stopping her from moving any further. "Do I have to do this every time you try to run away?" He asked as he pulled her back. She struggled against his grip. "Sasuke! Let me go!" She said angrily, failing in attempt to free her arm from his stronger grasp.

"Iie." He said coldly as he grabbed her roughly by the shoulders, causing her to face him, she glared back at him. "We need to talk." He said simply. Sakura scoffed before answering his statement. "Oh, I see now you want to talk, do you?" Sasuke's body stiffened.

"Look, I'm sorry I didn't listen before, I—"

"What? You were what Sasuke? You didn't even trust me enough to let me say anything!? You just automatically assumed that I was cheating on you!" She yelled, angry tears forming in her eyes. Sasuke narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"Damnit! What the hell was I supposed to think!?" He blurted out angrily. Sakura flinched slightly, Sasuke almost never yelled. It was silent for a moment before Sakura's voice broke it. "You were supposed to trust me…" She whispered back, looking at the ground.

Sasuke looked back at her. "I didn't think of that!" He stated. "All I saw was who I thought was you kissing another man! I wasn't thinking if it could really be you, or what would happen Sakura!"

Sakura did answer, she just looked at the ground. "So now what…?" She whispered.

Sasuke ran a hand through his hair. "I…I don't know." He admitted. Sakura choked back a sob. "M-maybe…it's for the best…"

Sasuke just felt like he had been stabbed in the heart. "N-nani?"

"Us…apart…" She closed her eyes. 'Iie…I don't want this!' She clenched her fist again. 'But…maybe it is for the best…' She thought to herself.

Sasuke looked at her. "You really think that?" He asked, trying hard to keep his voice from crackling.

Sakura looked up at him. "I-I don't know." She answered truthfully. A few more moments of silence. "Aa. Fine then." He answered before turning around. 'If this is really what she wants…then there's nothing I can do…' He thought to himself before speaking. "Good bye…Sakura." He murmured as he walked out of the room.

Sakura's eyes widened. What the hell had she just done!? She just told the love of her life that she didn't want to see him anymore!

'I don't want this…' She clenched her fist.

Sasuke closed the door behind him as he walked down the hallway, feeling a mix of anger, confusion, and sadness.

'How did it turn out like this…?'

Sakura closed her eyes tightly as the wave of tears finally came. What had she just done…?

'No! This isn't what I want!' She shook her head.

Sasuke was nearing the stairs.

'Sakura…'

Sakura made her decision as she ran towards the door.

'Sasuke…!' She took off towards the door.

"WAIT!" She yelled down the hall as she quickly ran to the head of the stairs to catch up with Sasuke. Sasuke turned around just in time to catch the flying blur coming at him which was Sakura, and in the process grabbing onto the railing in order to stop himself and Sakura from falling down the stairs.

"I-I don't want this!" She admitted as she cried into his chest, holding on to him like her life depended on it. After a few moments Sasuke came back to his senses as he wrapped his arms around her in return. 'Sakura…' He thought as he savored the feeling of her against him once again.

"I don't either Sakura…" he answered, holding her tightly to him. Sakura's body shook with sobs as she clung to him. Sasuke buried his head in her hair before whispering, his voice barely heard by Sakura herself, even though his mouth was next to her ear.

"I'm so sorry… Sakura…"

Sakura sobbed again as she shook her head. They stayed like that for a while…

Ino smiled from the bottom of the stairs, hiding herself behind the corner of a wall as she watched the scene at the top of the stairs take place. "Couldn't do it without me…" She whispered cockily.

A pair of arms wrapped themselves around her from behind. "Oh really?" Shikamaru asked. "Damn straight! Their both so stubborn!" Ino said. Shikamaru sighed. "Women are so troublesome." Ino looked at him. "Yeah, well your just gonna have to get used to it." She smirked before pulling him for a kiss, to which he happily responded to.
