Mmmm I knew I would update quite quick... lmao! Well guys enjoy this one and I can guarantee that Sasuke is not as OOC as in the previous chapter. And he never probably will be in the future. In this story at least... lol. He may even not be OOC at all in this chapter. I'm not quite sure I haven't written it yet :P
Disclaimer: I sadly inform you all that I do not own Naruto...
M.m.M.m.M.m.M.m.M
"Where were you Sasuke?" A male with long-ish silver hair, blue eyes and shark teeth asked, looking at the raven haired man, with both eyebrows raised.
"Hn" Sasuke replied, passing him with no interest whatsoever and collapsing on the couch in a lazy way.
"That's nothing of your business Suigetsu!" A girl with red and somewhat dark pink hair yelled at the silver haired man, bonking him on the head.
Suigetsu fell flat on the floor in a puddle of water and slowly formed himself back, rubbing his head and glaring at the red headed girl.
"Damn it Karin..." Suigetsu mumbled under his breath.
"I need something to kill..." a tall orange haired male mumbled, sitting on the other couch.
"Just shut up Jugo!" Karin snapped at the tall male.
He simply glared at her.
"So... Sasuke-kun..." Karin started seductively, sitting awfully close to him on the couch, causing Sasuke to grunt in annoyance.
As soon as she was close to him Karin flinched. She sniffed his shirt a couple of times before she scowled, causing the others to watch her with a raised eyebrow.
"You smell like you've been with another woman!" Karin growled.
"Hn."
She glared at him.
He glared back.
"Karin, what's it to you? It's not like you're his girlfriend or anything..." Suigetsu mumbled in annoyance.
Karin gave him a death glare and scowled.
"It's none of your business" Suigetsu mocked, mimicking her voice.
She screeched and launched at him, beating him to a bloody pulp. Jugo was watching intently as Suigetsu's blood appeared on her knuckles and something lusty sparkled in his eyes.
Sasuke sighed.
"Hn." He mumbled, getting off the couch and walking towards the exit door.
"Where are you going Sasuke-kun!?" Karin squealed, surprised.
"Hn. I need to go."
"I'll come!" She chirped, letting go of a beat up Suigetsu.
Sasuke scowled and glared at her. "Alone."
She pouted which had no effect whatsoever on him.
M.m.M.m.M.m.M.m.M
He walked through the training grounds and jumped up in a tree, sitting casually on the branch. He looked up at the sky, suddenly feeling very empty. It felt like something was missing. He was staring dully at the full moon up in the sky, reflecting its light on his face. Pink hair, sparkling green joyous eyes and elegant smile flashed in his mind.
"Sakura..." He murmured.
The wind blew and he closed his eyes, letting the breeze caress his face. It was comforting somehow. Warm and soft... His eyes softened and he gazed up at the moon again, almost smiling.
He sat there for hours, reminiscing the times he had with team 7.
Naruto, his almost brother, who kept on acting dumb yet cheerful and determined. They both were rivals ever since they were kids, but they were close nonetheless.
Kakashi, his perverted sensei, who kept on finding more ridiculous excuses for being late.
Sakura... the kind and caring one in the group. The cheery, happy one. The one who always needed to be protected...
Sakura Haruno...
Who knows... maybe if the Uchiha Massacre had not occurred, maybe if Sasuke wasn't so obsessed with revenge, maybe if he wasn't so cold and distant... maybe some day... Sakura could've been Sakura Uchiha...
A particular memory flashed in his mind and he closed his eyes, reminiscing it.
Where... Where am I?
A faint sobbing was heard.
Am I alive?
The sobbing became louder and his vision slowly cleared itself to reveal a blurry form of a young girl with vibrant pink hair crying on his chest.
Sakura? Could it be?
His vision became clearer and what he saw confirmed it.
"Sakura..." Sasuke whispered.
"You're heavy" he said hoarsely.
The girl jumped and jerked her head to look at him. Tears formed in her eyes.
"Sasuke-kun... Sasuke-kun!" she cried out, embracing him tightly.
"Sakura... you're hurting me"
It was the time he had almost died. The time he took the needles for Naruto. The time they had fought Zabuza and Haku.
"Say... Sasuke-kun?" She asked softly, smiling cheerily. Her eyes sparkled with such joy as she watched the silver droplets fall on her open palm.
"Hn?" He mumbled, looking at his reflection in the water.
"Do you miss them?" She asked, still not looking at him.
Her legs were swinging on the edge of the bridge. She put her hands on two bars and watched the reflection of the both of them sitting on the edge of the bridge in the heavy rain.
"...Hn?" He turned to look at her with a questioning eyebrow.
His heart skipped a beat as he stared at her soaked form. Her hair was flat and was sticking to her face while her soaked clothes were glued to her skin, revealing her curves even more. Her green orbs sparkled with joy as she watched the water flowing under them and a soft smile was placed on her lips.
She looked at him too, this time. "Your family." She said, smiling sadly.
He turned to look at the river, completely taken aback and she sighed, looking back to the river.
Minutes passed by and they sat there in complete silence.
"Aa." He finally said.
She turned to look at him, surprised.
Another silence took over before she spoke:
"You know... I'm always there for you if you need me Sasuke-kun"
She was awaiting his usual "Hn" as an answer... but instead...
"Aa, Sakura. I know."
It was the time they randomly ran into each other during a storm. They both like thunderstorms. They both liked the rain. They decided to stick together. Well Sakura did. Sasuke didn't really care much. They both ended up catching a cold after spending the night at the bridge where not many words had been exchanged. But that night their friendship had grown stronger.
"Sasuke, you coming? It's getting kinda cold out there" Suigetsu called out through a half opened door.
Suigetsu was thrown out of the way by Karin. "Oh dear! Sasuke-kun come on inside we don't want you to get sick! Come on in!" Karin cried out worriedly and annoyingly.
Suigetsu's complaints were heard in the background.
"Hn. Whatever." Sasuke jumped down from the tree and walked back to the door but before he stole one last glance at the moon, his eyes soft.
"Maybe someday Sakura... maybe someday we'll meet again..."
The gentle breezed caressed his skin again.
Yea maybe...
