Sakura kept her head into Itachi's chest as he moved through the night. She had wanted to call out to Naruto, she wanted to go home, she wanted to feel the arms of someone she loved wrap around her and hold her in their arms. She wanted to let Kakashi and Naruto know that she was okay, instead she settled for Itachi's strong arms. She rested her head against his chest, and breathed in his scent. "Sakura?" Itachi asked. Sakura only moved in closer to his chest, her arms tightened around him. She looked up at him, and realized that he had stopped. He released Sakura and sat down against a tree, Sakura stayed wrapped up in his arms and he began to lightly stoke her hair.
"It hurts Itachi, it really hurts." Sakura said against his chest, trying not to cry.
Itachi sighed; he really didn't know how to deal with this. When he had left the village it was because he had nothing for him. "Sakura, I'm so sorry, if I didn't think that you were strong enough to face the road that lies ahead of you, I would have made the leader change his mind." Itachi took Sakura by the shoulders and looked into her jade eyes. He wiped away her tears and brushed her hair out of the way. "Sakura I know that you can do this, and I know that it hurts." Sakura looked up at Itachi; he was starting to scare her a little bit. She knew that this was not the way he normally acted. Why was it only around her? Sakura looked at Itachi a little more than she ever had before. His face was beautifully sculptured with light pale skin and highly chiseled cheek bones. His eyes were staring intently at her with the Sharingan eyes, and his lips looked all too kissable under the moonlight.
Without thinking or without knowing what she was doing, Sakura leaned in and lightly her lips touched his. Itachi was shocked for a moment, but then his lips started to move against hers and Sakura was a little shocked. When Itachi was fully aware of what he was doing he pushed Sakura away. "I'm sorry." She said looking down.
Itachi didn't say anything. "We should get going; Tsunade is only a few hours away. When we find her we can get you healed, and begin your training." He said. Sakura nodded and as she stood, she gripped her side and winced. Itachi lifted her into his arms and took off. He looked down at Sakura and looked away before she caught him. "Don't be sorry." He said looking straight forward. He could feel Sakura's head move against his arms, but he didn't look down at her. There was something in that small kiss that he liked too much. Sakura was not his to have.
Sakura woke up, not really remembering what had happened. She remembered the kiss with Itachi all too well though. His cool lips on hers, the way she went hot when he began to kiss her back. She wanted to kiss him again, and the woman in her told her that she wanted to feel his hands on her, all over, and that scared her. When she though back to Sasuke, she couldn't remember ever feeling like this, and that only pushed the fear stronger.
"Itachi, you said you wanted me to train a girl, not a kunoichi from Konoha that you kidnapped!" a woman's voice snapped. Sakura looked over to the door, and listened to the conversation.
"Do you think I like this?" Itachi's voice asked. "If it was up to me I would have sent her back with Kakashi last night. But unfortunately that's not up to me or you." It was silent for a moment. "You said you would train her for two and a half years that was our deal, you're being paid for it, and all of your debts as well."
"And that's the only reason I'm dong this." The woman said again. It was silent for a long while. "Itachi, this is just opening old wounds isn't it?" she asked. "I can see it in your eyes, even if they are covered by your Sharingan. You're falling in love with the kunoichi, and those feelings scare you." Sakura could hear foot steps coming towards the door, and she stretched, acting like she just woke up as she swung her legs over the side of the bed. "So you're the little brat." The woman said. she was tall with long light blond hair pulled back into two pony tails, her chestnut eyes looked down at her, and she had the face of a mother. Sakura recognized her immediately. She was the legendary Tsunade, and the strongest kunoichi to ever live. She was amazing.
"Konichiwa Tsunade-Sama." Sakura said bowing her head. Tsunade walked over and lifted her head. She twisted it to one side, and then the other.
"Well it's going to take some work, but I think we can change this scrawny sack of bones into a real kunoichi." She said with a smile. "Get some training clothes on, you're going to be working your butt off for the next two and a half years." She said. Sakura nodded and changed before she followed Tsunade out of the village.
Sasuke woke up with a pounding head and every single part of his body was sore. He remembered what had happened perfectly. He was about to fight Itachi when he fell to the Sharingan—again. But that wasn't what scared him that only mean that he had to get stronger, what scared him is what Sakura had become in that world. She had said that Sasuke killed her. How did I kill her? Sasuke knew that everyone was pissed at him for the way he was acting, but the truth was that if he acted like he liked Sakura in the slightest—which he didn't—Itachi could use her against him, and not only would that put her in danger, but it would could his judgment. He knew that Itachi was not going to hurt Sakura. He had read his brothers charka like an open book. Itachi was falling in love with the cherry blossom. Sasuke smirked and laid back down in the bed. Maybe now I have some leverage on you, big brother.
"AARRGGHH! How can Sasuke Teme act like that?!" Naruto demanded storming around the hotel room. "Sakura-chan was right there, we could have saved her, but then he had to go all avenger and they got away!" he sighed and fell into the couch beside Shikamaru and Ino.
"Naruto I really don't think you need to worry about Sakura too much." Shikamaru said lazily looking at the ceiling. Everyone looked at him for a reason as to why he was so calm. "Look Itachi said himself that she would be looked after, and chances are that if they plan on keeping her alive for three years, then they're not gong to hurt her. Also, did you see the way he was looking at her?" he asked. Asuma and Kakashi shot each other a glance. "Itachi is falling in love with Sakura. I know that's hard to believe since he's a S-class criminal, and he's an Uchiha, and six years older than Sakura. But the way he looked at her, and the way his chakra was moving he was in love. Sakrua's wasn't much different either, granted she was under a genjutsu, but it still held that signature."
Asuma and Kakashi looked at each other, both thinking the same thing. If they let Sakura and Itachi fall in love, it was just going to be that much harder to get her back.
Sakura was exhausted, she though training with Kakashi Sensei had been hard, but this, this was a whole new type of hard, a whole new level of pain, but more importantly and whole new feeling of pride. By the end of the day Sakura had been able to summon enough chakra to her hand to crush a rock. Granted that it was a small rock, but she was still able to do something she had never seen Naruto, Sasuke, or even Kakashi do.
"Here." Sakura looked up at the voice. It was Shizune, Tsunade's other pupil. The woman was tall and slender with dark hair, and eyes. She was beautiful, and in her right arm held against her chest was Ton-ton the ninja pig. Shizune was holding out a carton of take-out.
"Thanks Shizune-san." Sakura said taking the food and chop sticks from her. "Do you know where Itachi is?" she asked as Shizune turned around to leave.
"He said he had to report in to his superiors, and that he would be back in a week."
Sakura felt a small pang of sadness wash over her. Why hadn't Itachi told her he was leaving? Okay so he really didn't have to tell her everything, but she missed him. That kiss came flooding back and she felt even more depressed. She wanted so much more from him and that scared her. He was a criminal, he was older than her by six years, and he had probably been with other women before. Sakura shook her head at the thought of Itachi with other women. It wasn't her business, and even if it was, Itachi would never fall in love with her. A scrawny little girl like her? Yeah right.
Itachi weaved his way in and out of the trees all he could think about since he left was Sakura. This really isn't good. He thought to himself. Not only was Sakura a kidnapped girl, but she had been in love with Sasuke, how could he know that she was really in love with him? This could all be some kind of scapegoat for her. Since she couldn't have Sasuke she would take his brother. No that couldn't be it, she had seen Sasuke and nothing in her chakra signature had said anything about love, or feeling like that. There was nothing there but pure hatred. Itachi gave a small smirk and thought of just how much it would kill Konoha to see their little cherry blossom fall in love with him on her own accord.
