Sasuke glared at the door he was about to open….it's been a week since he hadn't gone to one of these missions. They were too much of a bore. He's a ninja for a reason…an Uchiha shouldn't be lowered to such standards.

Uchiha Sasuke was about to enter the door to a bar full of…..prostitutes. Why was he still with Orochimaru if he had to do these stupid jobs?? Where did his fucking pride go?? He shivered. The feel of those disgusting women on him made his blood run cold.

Sasuke had to do this though. He needed information and there was one prostitute that could give it to him. Every time he had to do one of these missions he felt like he was betraying a part of him….Sakura.

She was the most important reason of why he wanted to leave Orochimaru and not do these stupid missions.

He missed her badly….it's been a couple of weeks since he hadn't seen her.

After this mission the onyx-eyed ninja decided that he would go visit her….if he could find her. She's always moving from one place to the next, it's impossible to find her.

He smirked. Sasuke could find her anywhere she went. Sakura's chakra was so familiar to him, he could find her anywhere and everywhere she'd go. After all, she was his and it must stay that way.

Taking another gulp of fresh air, he went in the contaminated air inside the bar…

She looked outside at the beautiful lake and smiled. Her beautiful pink hair was very long and had to be braided, while her green eyes mesmerized whoever looked at them. In simplicity, her beauty couldn't be compared to anything for that anything would lose.

The boy stared longer at her with a heartfelt smile. He was lucky to have her, he knew. Although Sakura wasn't his real mother, he considered her such. Itachi had always told him how he should appreciate that she's here with us and hasn't left.

He was always scared that she would do such thing. Sometimes he cursed her beauty. Any man would want her. That beauty was a curse to him. He would look at it for so long that he would be in a trance as well. He knew that she cared for him very much, but was it enough to give up her happiness for him?? Ryu knew she wasn't happy. He wasn't a genius for nothing. The Uchiha genes were in him after all.

No woman was happy without her true love beside her, and his father wasn't her love.

They got along well, he noticed, but she just didn't love him and neither does he love her. His father loves no one after all (A/N: ITACHI LOVES ME!!!!! Lol. Jk. Anyway, let's go on with the story and sorry for the interruption) except maybe for his son. That was a miracle in itself, though. Itachi was born into this world not to love, but to show his power and wrath.

His father's purpose was for that, but he couldn't stop wishing that Sakura and Itachi would fall in love. If they were together, she would stay for sure! Then he could have the most important person by his side forever.

He loved Sakura more then he loved his father. It was normal, after all, considering how she had raised him and his father was always off on missions.

Sakura was being wasted here. She disserved much better, he knew, but couldn't help being selfish and wanting her at his side forever. That child that she has in her womb…sometimes he wished wasn't there. What if that child would take her away from him?

He still didn't know who the father of such a thing was, but he had suspects. Sometimes he would hear her and Itachi talk about a so called Sasuke. Who was that guy?

Sasuke must be someone important to Sakura was his conclusion. He didn't push it further because he was scared of what he might find if he did.

Those are the insecurities of Uchiha Ryu. His only weakness being…Sakura.

She tore he gaze off the window to see Ryu scrunched up in a sitting position looking at her thoughtfully. He always did this when she wasn't looking for some reason and she grew worried. Ryu had become her life and she cared very much for him.

He was like a son for her.

"Ryu." He tore his gaze from her and looked to the side. "Is something wrong?" He could never admit to her that he was scared of losing her so he just shook his head and got up.

"Let's go to the lake and wait there until dad comes, okay?" She smiled and got up. Ever since he was little, Ryu showed a great passion towards water. He'd swim in it for hours and sometimes would practice different jutsu inside of it to see how they would come out.

This was a strange occurrence since most Uchiha's preferred the element of fire and most were known for their great strength in it.

Water was the exact opposite of fire.

Maybe Ryu would become something great. Sakura was sure of it, though and no 'maybe' would suffice in her imagination. He was truly a gifted child. She just wishes that the child in her womb won't cause him problems.

She had seen Ryu glaring at her stomach several times. She would grow scared, but she knew he wouldn't do anything to hurt her.

"Why do you like the water so much Ryu?" She asked as he stepped into the water slowly, fully clothed and began to swim.

"It reminds me of someone." He said as he smiled warmly at her. "I feel that I'm near her every time I go in it."

"Could that person be your mommy?" He gave her a hard look and shook his head.

"I barely knew her." He stated. Ryu hated when Sakura talked about that woman. His father had told him the truth and that his real mother was a….woman that sold her body.

"Sorry, I know you don't like talking about it Ryu, I was just curious." He nodded towards her and gave out a true smile.

"It's okay. I'll forgive you." She looked at him quizzically. He said it in future tense. What did he mean?

"Ryu, what do you mean that 'you'll forgive me'?" He just smiled at her.

"I know that you'll leave me, won't you?" Her eyes widened and she just gazed at him with shock.

"Ryu, I would never abandon you. You're MY son!!" he smiled and got out of the water, drenched. He pointed with his index finger to her womb.

"Yes you will, Okaa-san. You'll leave me for that thing and for the father of it." Her eyes widened. He knew that Itachi wasn't the father?? What scared her most was the look of hate and envy he had plastered in his face as he looked at her stomach again. Something else that caught her was that he had called her child 'it' and 'thing'. It was just like Itachi had called his son when he was born.

Ryu was turning into Itachi….he was going to be like his father…

"Ryu…What can I do to make you believe that I won't leave you?" Ryu turned his gaze from her stomach to her emerald eyes. His eyes turned into warm and kind ones every time he looked at her.

"Okaa-san, just promise me that you will still love me as much as that thing when it's born."

She went towards him and although he was drenched, she hugged him.

"Of course I'll love you as much as this child I'm carrying. To me you are like my child, Ryu. Nothing will ever change that. I can't leave you. You are a part of me." He broke down and started to hug her while crying his heart out. She sighed. He's not like Itachi after all. This idea calmed her down.

She picked him up with her super human strength and took him inside the cottage. She started a fire in the fireplace and put him on her lap. His crying stopped as he looked at Sakura once again.

"Okaa-san?"

"Hmm??" She said as she kept on staring at the fire with a smile.

"Who's the dad of the baby?" She looked at him abruptly and her eyes were wide with shock.

"You didn't call the baby a thing this time, or it…why?" he looked at her and raised a brow. She was trying to dodge the question.

"I was just angry when I called the baby such a thing…I'm sorry." She smiled and shook her head.

"It's okay."

"Who's the daddy of the baby?" She turned to face him and smiled.

"That is not important. What is important is that we have established the fact that I'll never leave you." He was about to retort when the door suddenly slides open to reveal a man with onyx eyes and black-bluish hair staring at them. Sakura quickly let go of Ryu and got up from her sitting position.

"You!"
