Chapter 3

--------------------------

Sakura went home after she had gone grocery shoping, hopeing she would spend some time alone at home. The pink haired girl walked down the street which was now full of people who were now doing there daily jobs.

A sigh came from the girl as she entered her house, hoping dreadly that her dad would be out. Sakura took her shoe's of and placed the bags on the kithchen table. She looked around the house searching for her father.

A sigh of relief escaped her, ' His not here.' Sakura thought.

Sakura sat down on one of the couch in the living room. She layed back staring at the ceiling. Her mind drifted into what had happend earlyer that day,' Why does Sasuke always interfere with things, It's not like he cares' She thought. A smile spread itself on her blank face, ' but maybe I could tell him, he could help me.' A happy felling fluttered in her stomach.

" Yeah, I think I'll do that." She said to herself and decided to get started on dinner.

-------------------------

Time flew passed Sakura as she finished cooking and doing the house work. Her father wouldn't be there for another hour or so. So she set the the food on the table and went out for a walk. Putting on her shoes and a warm jacket she walked down the desereted streets of konoha, It was nearly night time.

Sakura made her way to the near by park, and sat down on one of the benches in the park. Her eyes searched the stary sky. She could hear the rustles of the wind that blew by the trees. Sakura sighed for the thousand time that day,' Maybe I shouldn't tell Sasuke...I mean what can he do anyway?' Sakura thought. The question was in her head all day long ever since her little conversation with him before. What can he do?

It's not like he could wish her away from the trouble she was in. Her little crush she had on him in her genin days was long gone, He did leave and betrayed the village so what made him think he could just come back into her life. Sakura didn't exactly forgive him for what he did to her that night before he left.

She was wondering what he ment by saying thank you to her before he left. It realy bugged her, but the only way she would get the answer was by asking him.

Sakura shook her head, ' I have other things to worry about than that right now... Like doing somthing about My father.'

Standing up from the bench, she dusted her skirt and walked out of the park and down the road. There were not many people around since it was late. Sakura's eyes seemed to wonder of into the sky, staring aimlessly. The moon was shining bright that night, which made it easyer for her to get home in time.

' Oh no, I almost forgot.' She thought worriedly. She quickly started running down the road towards her house. If she didn't get there in time her father would probably do something to her or worse. Her feet ran as fast as she could.

Sakura's eye's closed when she came in contact with somthing hard, making her fall back on her butt. She slowly opend one eye to find out who or what she ran into. " I'm sorry, I was in a hurry.." Sakura trailed off before getting up and dusting herself yet again. She had a small cut on her knees but didn't mind. She got threw a whole lot of worst things than this little cut so it didn't matter to her.

" A pretty little woman like you shouldn't be walking around at late night." A deep voice said, Sakura looked at his face. The man was taller than the pink haired girl, Had dark green hair and peircing black eyes. He had a built body which meant he was a ninja as she noticed the forhead frotector on his right arm.

" Well, I'm sorry for bothering you, I was in a hurry." Sakura said slighty bowing down apologizing. The man smirked, " You should be carful, you may never know who you bump into little girl." His voice had sadistic tone to it. Sakura thought she better get away from him before things got out of hand.

But for her it was to late. The man had already pushed her agains the nearby allyway wall, and pushed himself against her, " I'll be having fun with you tonight." He whispered into her ear sending shivers down her body, Sakura could smell the disgusting smell of alcohol from his breath.

Her nose wrinkled as she tried hard to get out of his grasp but he unfortunately overpowered her greatly. He was an older man after all and with his built body there wasn't any chance for her to do anything to prevent what was going to happend next.

' I knew this would happen eventually.' Sakura thought as tears started coming up in her eyes and sliding down her flushed face. The man smirked as he punched her in th stomach earning a scream from the girl in his grasp. He pinned her arms above her head, holding them in place with one of his hands, using the other to trace along her hip bone up along her side causing her to shiver. "Your very beautiful, one of the most beautiful I've ever seen." He whispered coldly, his finger running across her lips.

Sakura jerked her head away. "Get the hell away." She said coldly. The man smirked. "Any man would kill to have you…and here I am, with you all to myself." He said sadistically. Sakura was disgusted.

He smirked again as he kissed her neck softly. Sakura jerked away more violently again this time. "Ah!" She gasped as she felt metal against her stomach. He smirked again as he punctured her skin a little, drawing blood. He smiled and licked it up. "S-stop it! Let me go!" She whispered frightened. Oh god, this was it. " Your going to be mine..." His voice came before he attemted to kiss her but she moved her head out of the way and he stopped not leting go of her.

' What I'm I doing, I'm a ninja...I should protect my self.' She thought as she felt him plant butterfly kisses on her neck. The man laughed coldly as he started to unbutton the front of her blouse. Sakura twisted and jerked, trying to get away, getting kicked in the stomach as a punishment yet again.

-----------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, a raven haired boy was walking aimlessly down the road towards his manson. A sigh was heard from him. ' I shouldn't have gone with Naruto before to Ichiruka.' He guntedly thought, They both had a food contest in which one could finish eating more bowles of ramen. Naruto won, as usual since it was his favorite food.

' That's the last time I'm ever going to that place.' Sasuke promised himself.

Suddenly he heard a voice coming out of the ally way near were he was walking at the moment. He stopped in his tracks and listened.

" Please,...stop...your hurting me." came a voice which was weak but Sasuke heard it enough to go and see what was going on. As he went into the ally way his heart nearly stopped. the sight of his team mate.

" What the hell do you think your doing?" Sasuke looked at the man as he truned around faceing Sasuke. Sasuke had a very angry look on his face, His sharingan activated.

The man looked angry that he was interutpted, " Oi, your interfering with me, so go and get yourself another woman 'cause she's mine." The man said as he pulled Sakura closed. Poor girl couldn't move after he had puched and abused her stomach for a long while. Her eyes were slightly closed as she tryed hard to endure the pain that was rushing threw her body.

Sasuke scrolled, " Sakura!" Hearing her name she slowly lifted her head and looked at Sasuke. The raven haired boy rushed up to the man, and punched him in the face, Then kicking him were it hurt most. The man slowly fell to his knees after being caught off guard.

Sasuke took Sakura in his arms after disabling his Sharingan, and looking at her to see if she was alright. Her Shirt was half riped, and she had blood stickling down her stomach. His eyes narrowed at the sight. Before he did anything he Poffed of, Sakura in his arms bridal style and went home to his mansion, hopeing she wasn't hurt to much.

After arriving at the mansion, He quickly went upstaire's to his room. His room consisted of a king sized bed with navy blue sheets, A desk which had books and other equipment for ninja's, and a wardrobe. There was a whith fluffy carpet that laid on the floor, and a bathroom next door.

Sasuke carefully put her down on his bed and rushed to get somthing to clean the wound. Sakura laid there staring up, her face was wet from tears and flushed. Her eyes were puffy but she didnt't care. All she wanted to do was thank Sasuke for helping her.

Speaking of Sasuke, He came back with stuff to clean the wound acroos on Sakura's stomach. He sat down on the bed next to her as he cleaned the wound. Sakura winched ever so offen but didn't say anythng. After when he was done he took the stuff and went out of the room.

Sakura sat up, before looking out the window, the curtains were drawn so she could see the dark sky and the rain pouring outside. Thunder flashed as Sakura curled up in a ball on the bed, Whipering.

If there was one thing she hated was Thunder and rainy nights. It reminded her of the night her mom died and it scared her.

Sasuke came up to her and sat down on the bed yet again, " Are you alright? felling better?" he asked soflty as he put a hand on her trembling form. Sakura looked up at him with watery eyes before he was caught of guard, She hugged him tight buring her head into his chest. Sasuke was very suprised, but she was hurt and it didn't matter if she hugged him or not. He slowly put his arm around her slim form, hugging back.

Sasuke could hear her cry on his chest, but didn't say anything. He smilled lightly, one of his rare smiles.

" Shhh...It's going to be alright." He muttered to Sakura putting his chin on her head, hugging tightly. Soon Sakura fell asleep, while being held by Sasuke.

He put her down on the bed and pulled the covers so they coved her body fully. He changed out of his cloths into his boxer's and no shirt and slid under the bed covers with Sakura. She was slightly shivering so he pulled her closer to his chest.

They both fell into a deep sleep, enjoy each others warmth while it lasted.
