OMG. Thanks for the reviews. I didn't expect it to be like this. Arigatou. ^_^
Anyway, here is the next chapter, like I promised.
Oh, BTW, sorry if it's a little fast moving. You're gonna feel the fastness of the story after reading. :D
"S-Sasuke-kun!" Karin gasped. She stood there in shock, letting her glasses fall to the ground, near Sasuke's unconscious form. She took a step back, and glared at Sakura.
"You!" she pointed out, "This is all your fault! If you just stayed out of Sasuke's way, he wouldn't have saved you! Freak!" she kicked Sakura one last time, this time—a fatal blow.
It was five minutes later that Itachi saw them, lying helplessly on the playground's sandbox, with Sasuke's head, oozing with blood, and Sakura's limp body with bumps and bruises.
"Shit." Itachi hissed, bringing out his cellphone, and calling the only person—and doctor—he knows who can save a life. She saved his life once.
"Tsunade-sama! Ambulance, now!"
Amnesia
Chapter TWO: Don't Forget
[*- Somewhere we went wrong. We were once so strong. -*]

Itachi raked his fingers through his raven locks numerous times, with staggering breaths.
Atsuko and Seicho has been informed of the incident after the kids were brought to the hospital. Atsuko busted into the doors, tears flowing down her cheeks, with a teary eyed Seicho behind her.
'Oh God. How am I gonna explain this to mom and dad without mom getting a heart attack?'
Their head snapped to their right when they heard the emergency room open as Tsunade walked out, a serious look on her face.
"How is she doctor?" Atsuko asked, wiping her tears with the handkerchief she brought along.
"The girl is fine. The kick she had on the head luckily didn't break any tendons, or else she could have had a concussion."
"How about my brother?"
"Yes. I was going to that. Unlike Sakura here, Sasuke wasn't lucky enough. And instead of a concussion, there is a possibility that he has—"
"Amnesia and a coma." Shizune, Tsunade's assistant informed, jotting notes into her nurse clipboard.
"C-coma?"
"Yes, Itachi. Due to the blow he had, we saw through CAT, that his medulla oblongata was severely damaged, but that is just one result. Maybe, just maybe, he won't have a coma. But we are absolutely sure that he has amnesia. Temporary amnesia, might I say."
"Poor Sasuke-san." Seicho whispered.
"We are doing everything we can to cure him. If he does have a coma, we speculate it'll last for 3 months—"
"Three months?!" Itachi snapped.
"Yes Itachi. Three months. Is there a problem?"
"Tsunade-sama, were moving, this Sunday."
"Well, if you were listening, it hasn't been proven that he has a coma." She said, walking back inside the emergency room.
"Oh. As for the girl—" Atsuko and Seicho looked at her. She smiled.
"Her wounds are healed, the bruises might last for a few weeks, but it'll fade soon. Her backbone was deformed, but make her lie down for a while and it'll go back to its original form. And in my opinion, she's quite a beautiful girl." She grinned.
"Thank you, doctor." Seicho said, bowing slightly.
"Oh, pish-posh! Call me Tsunade." She laughed before entering the E.R fully.
THE NEXT DAY: SATURDAY
Itachi, Seicho, and Atsuko woke up to see they were in a white room.
"Where are we?" Itachi groaned, scratching his head sleepily.
"I guess the doctors didn't want us sleeping in the hallways." Seicho chuckled out.
The wooden door opened, as Shizune walked in, a smile etched on her face.
"Good morning!" she beamed, walking towards Itachi's bed, and fixing it. It took her less than a minute to fix it all up. Itachi smirked.
"You're really good in bed—" but before he can even finish his sentence, she shot him a glare.
"—making." he finished off. She blushed.
"Oh." she rubbed the back of her neck sheepishly. "Gomen."
"Shizune, right?" Atsuko asked, fixing the bed she used.
"Yes." she answered. "I'll handle it Atsuko-san." she added, running to Atsuko's side.
"Neh, Shizune. Is the two kids awake?" Seicho asked. She gave him a quick glance, and turned to fix the last bed.
"Sorry, Seicho-san, but I don't know. I haven't entered their room today."
"Are we allowed to enter though?" Itachi questioned.
"Hai. They were transferred to Room 108 last night. It's on the second floor." Shizune stated.
"Aa."
"So," Shizune started, clasping her hands together. "Do you need anything? Food? Drinks? Toiletries in case you want to take a bath?"
"Is clothing included?" Seicho asked. Atsuko elbowed his ribs. He groaned out in pain. Shizune giggled.
"The last question was just a joke. You can't take a bath here unless you're a patient."
"But can I get a cup of coffee?" Atsuko asked. Shizune nodded her head.
Shizune looked at the room, looking for anything else to fix or clean, and bid goodbye, as she went out to get what Atsuko ordered.
"So Itachi, wanna visit Sasuke and Sakura?"
"Aa."
"Coming, darling?" Seicho asked.
"Iie. I'll wait for the coffee, thank you very much. I'll follow once I finished."
ROOM 108:
Itachi raised an eyebrow while Seicho frowned at the scene in front of them.
Sakura was tearing up, while Sasuke glared at her.
"Sasuke! Thank goodness you aren't in a coma!" Itachi remarked.
"Yes, brother. Now, can you please explain to me why I'm stuck in this room with her?" Sasuke asked, shooting another glare at Sakura. She finally cried, tears springing out of control.
He glared at her again, which worsened her sobs. He rolled his eyes. "You're annoying."
"You don't remember her?" Itachi asked in shock.
"No. Why would I remember someone as annoying as her?" Sasuke said turning his back to her, facing the door. The door opened and two figures stepped in.
"Um...what's happening here?" Atsuko asked, while Tsunade walked alongside of her, a cup of Starbucks Coffee in her hand.
"Oh! This is good! You're both awake. Care to explain why you were even bleeding to death yesterday?" Tsunade asked.
"I was?"
"Yes. You don't remember?"
"No. All I remember is hearing Itachi's voice while my fangirls crowded around me." he answered. His eyes widened when he realized something.
"Wait—" his eyes turned into slits, as he looked at Sakura dangerously. She flinched.
"—maybe you are the reason! You're another fangirl, aren't you?" he hissed out, his eyes turning red. Itachi's eyes widened.
"S-Sasuke! No!" Itachi exclaimed, and covered Sasuke's eyes with his hand. Sakura was horrified.
"Sakura, dear. Don't cry. It's natural for an Uchiha to go Sharingan all of the sudden. It's a unique trait they have. Hush." Seicho comforted, hugging the shaking pinkette. Itachi looked at Seicho for a moment.
'How does he know that?' it was quite clear that Itachi was eavesdropping. Seicho wouldn't have said that information softly if he didn't want it to be heard. 'And Atsuko-san. How did she know we were from the Uchiha clan? They just moved here.' Itachi smelled something fishy, and he swear it isn't any sea creature.
"Sakura is fine now. As I said yesterday, her backbone was deformed slightly, it's best if you carry her home. As for mini Itachi here," Sasuke huffed at the nickname, "He can go home too."
"Be safe everyone!" Shizune chirped out as she waved goodbye to them.
"Itachi. Why are you carrying her? Isn't it their job to do that?" Sasuke asked, referring to Sakura's parents.
"It's the least I could do for little Sakura here." Itachi said, smiling down at her. He was carrying her bridal style, mind you.
She smiled back at him. "Thanks Chi-Chi. C-can you promise me something?"
"Hn?"
"Never remind Sasu-kun about me."
"Why? Don't you want him to remember?"
"Not yet. I heard you were moving, and it'll take time for Sasu-kun to remember, I guess."
"Yeah. It's just temporary anyway. He'll remember it soon."
"Thank you Itachi. For everything. Have a nice day." Atsuko said sweetly. Sakura gave the two boys a wave of goodbye and entered their house.
She was awake all night long, waiting for the clock to strike 12. And when it did—
"It's Sunday. Goodbye, Sasuke-kun." she smiled sadly.
—she cried, knowing that she'll never see him again.
SNEAK PEEK: "Hey! You must be the new student! Welcome to Konoha University!" the boy exclaimed, shaking her hand.
BRAIN RELOADING. TOO MUCH INFORMATION. o_O
--lol. the medical lingo, or whatever Tsunade's saying. it's sooo hard to understand. I don't regret listening to my teacher while discussing what the heck tendons, medulla, and all that thingies are. THANK YOU MA'AM! :P
BYE. :)
