Tsuki-chan: I'M BACK! My internet has been a bit screwy…hehe. Anyways, I've decided to make this a little longer! I was going to end it in this chapter but I was like, that seems boring. Anyways, I hope you enjoy. I don't own Naruto!
"I'm not going to kill him…" Sakura whispered.
"…is that your decision?" Sakura nodded numbly. Kurai closed her eyes "Very well then."
Both Uchiha's eyes widened when suddenly Kurai appeared in front of them out of no where, throwing them apart. Sasuke growled as he stood up quickly along with Itachi. "Be calm Sasuke…" Kurai ordered as she walked towards him "You've won." She whispered with a hand on his shoulder.
"Good." He whispered turning towards Sakura when Kurai's hand was in front of him. "Give her some time, she'll come back. I will send you back to the future." Sasuke glared at her. "Not without Sakura."
"I'm afraid you have no choice Sasuke. Either return willingly or half dead." Sasuke hesitated at Kurai's ferocious glare and nodded, following her as the two ran off into the woods.
"Itachi-kun!" Sakura yelled running towards him as he collapsed. Blood poured out of his wounds, placing him gently on her lap she started to heal him slowly.
"Sa…Sakura." He whispered lifting a hand, touching her cheek gently. Sakura felt tears falling down her eyes gently as he caressed her cheek affectionately. She turned her head slightly and kissed his hand, using her free hand to hold his hand close.
As the soothing chakra entered his system Itachi's breathing turned even as he felt his eyes get heavy. Sakura smiled at him and that made him feel at peace. Sakura held his hand on her chest tightly, as if it would disappear if she released it.
"I never told you my answer Itachi-kun…" she whispered as she held her face close to his slumbering one. Finished with the healing Sakura brushed a lock from his face and whispered gently into his ear. "Aishiteru Uchiha Itachi."
Itachi's felt a pounding on his head as he sat up quickly the moment his eyes opened. Looking around wildly he found that he was in his room of the summer home, he felt a small movement next to him and looking down he saw a certain pink haired kunoichi slumbering beside him.
Relief hit him as he collapsed beside her, his arms around her waist. Pulling her close, inhaling her addicting fragrance, Itachi felt a bit giddy as Sakura returned his embrace as she unconsciously turned around snuggling into him. "Ita-kun…" she mumbled.
"Sakura…" he whispered, nuzzling into her neck. He felt her body vibrate as she let out a relaxed purr.
Sakura felt a tickling let pleasant feeling swimming through her veins as she felt herself purring, it felt so good to be relaxed despite the events that happened. Opening her eyes she saw sunlight pouring through the window.
"Good morning." Itachi murmured kissing her neck. Sakura didn't fight as she soon felt him on top of her, his kiss roaming her neck, marking her. She tangled her hand with his hair. As she combed through it she felt a very powerful need within her, holding him close Itachi's deeds only seemed to stroke that particular flame.
Sakura wanted to forget the events that happened a day ago. They had arrived because the others had found them unconscious beside the lake. Judging by the time they had been asleep for a whole day. What had Kurai said to her before she left?
Remember Sakura, despite the fact you're in the past the future isn't moving. When you return it will be like as if you never left… Sasuke will forget everything, I'll make sure of it but only you, me, and Sarutobi-san knows… use your time wisely for I shall return when you call me so you may return to your time…Don't worry, when you return to the future you will stay the same age except your mind is older…
"Itachi-kun." Sakura moaned as he kissed her hungrily. The two battled fiercely for dominance when Sakura finally yielded, allowing Itachi to lead the dance. Kisses grew desperate as Itachi slowly started to trail down when the knock on the door stopped them.
"Hey, you two better not be making out in there!" Sakura gave out a muffled squeak as Itachi got off of her. Sakura's face was flushed as she opened the door revealing all of her new Uchiha friends standing there.
"H-Hello Yukio-kun." Sakura managed to steady her voice as she smiled at them. Mika smiled back at her. "Good to see you up." Yukio nodded.
"Okaasan looked like she was going to have a heart attack when we brought you guys home like that. Speaking of which, why were you two like that?" Sakura gulped. Suddenly she felt a pull on her wrist, pushing her into the bathroom.
"Get ready; we're going to the park." Yukio glared at Itachi who closed the door behind her.
"Hey, don't bother my Sakura-chan!" Yukio felt his glare falter when Itachi's piercing eyes landed on him. Raidon sweat dropped as Yukio hid behind him, peeking to glance at Itachi who rolled his eyes. Fudo shook his head while Kano snorted in laughter.
"She's not yours." Itachi stated curtly. Kichi felt a devious smirk raising as she quirked an eyebrow at him. "Oh, then just who does she belong to?" Itachi returned the smirk.
"She's mine."
Sakura placed her head against the cool bath tiles, feeling the heat of the water that splashed against her Sakura closed her eyes.
(FLASHBACK)
"Ow!" twelve year old Sakura yelped as a sharp leaf cut her leg. Glancing down she saw a deep cut running diagonally along her shin. Great, she was alone in the woods and now she can't even walk! Grumbling she stood up only to wince at the sharp pain, making her fall down on her caboose.
"What are you doing?" looking up a dark blush arose her face.
"Sa-Sasuke-kun!" she squeaked out.
He jumped down from the tree and noticed her bleeding leg. Her blush intensified as he kneeled down in front of her. He sighed as he pulled out a cloth from his pouch, ripping it with his teeth, tying it neatly around her leg.
"Thanks." She mumbled. She lifted her eyes up and saw him crouching in front of her.
"Get on." He said in a blank voice. Sakura blinked for a moment in surprise before she smiled shyly "Th-Thank you." She whispered as she climbed on.
(END OF FLASHBACK)
"What happened to that Sasuke-kun?" she whispered as she stared up at the water falling. Closing her eyes she got ready to get out.
"Sakura-chan, what happened to your… uh, fiancé?" Sakura stiffened before smiling at Hikaru "He left. He was lying, to tell you the truth. I know my parents; they would never do something like that to me. I'm sure they probably said something along the lines that Sasuke-kun should take care of me, he probably mistaken it for marriage." Hikaru smiled.
"I see, well it's nice to see you smiling happily especially since that shock yesterday." Sakura blushed "Sorry about that…" Sakura was thankful Hikaru didn't pester her about it.
"It's alright. Well it's been an exciting vacation, regrettably we have to return back to the village tomorrow. Are you packed up?" Sakura nodded "Yes, Itachi-kun reminded me this morning so I'm ready… um, where's Sakura-chan and Sasuke-kun?" (AN: chibi-Sasuke is now Sasuke-kun once more since the older Sasuke is now back in the future! )
"They're at the lake. I swear, that boy won't let chibi-Sakura-chan out of his site." She pouted, wanting her turn with the little girl. Sakura giggled.
"Don't worry; he's just… protective of her." Hikaru snorted, mentally saying 'Yeah right, it's just Uchiha blood in him that makes him possessive of the one he loves… Who would have known Sasuke would fall in love at such a young age but it doesn't seem like a childish crush but the real deal… speaking of love' Hikaru turned her eyes on Sakura.
"Sakura-chan, tell me… what are your feelings toward Itachi?" Sakura looked surprised at Hikaru's forward question and smiled.
"I love him." Hikaru stared at her.
"You… what?"
"I love him." She answered confidently.
"Good." Hikaru smiled at her brightly. "I'm happy for you… and for Itachi. It's about time he found someone who can make him smile." This time it was Sakura's turn to be shocked. She thought Hikaru would have blown her top off at the declaration but she seemed calm.
"TEISHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU (Husband)!" or not…
"You told… Okaasan…" Itachi repeated. Sakura nodded calmly, sipping the jasmine tea she made herself. Itachi looked as if he had eaten something really disgusting and it was now becoming unsettling within his stomach. "I can't believe you told Okaasan."
"She's your mother, she has the right to know." Itachi gave her a deadpan look. "But-!"
"No buts!" Sakura snapped while mentally grinning. This was fun! Who knew being Itachi's girlfriend could be this enjoyable, especially since she now had control over the poor Uchiha.
Itachi flinched and wisely kept his mouth shut. He hadn't thought of this, which is surprising since he always thought ahead. Who knew with Sakura as his girlfriend he would be so intimidated by her. Than again, seeing Otousan with Okaasan he should have known in the beginning.
But… he had one thing over her.
"Sakura…" he whispered in a low voice, making her gulp. He stood up from his seat and sauntered over to her slowly, like a predator stalking his prey. Sakura squealed when he placed his hands firmly on the chair, trapping her.
"Look y-!" she was going to say was cut off as firm lips captured hers. Annoyance filled her but it disappeared as the need arose once more.
"Sakura…" he whispered once more, their lips centimeters away. Sakura gasped when he lifted her from the chair, placing her on the bed. Sakura felt her eyes widened 'Whoa, too soon! TOO SOON!'
"I-Itachi-kun!" she squeaked but sighed in relief as he simply entered, wrapping his arms around her. "Shhh… go to sleep my little cherry blossom." He ordered and this time, Sakura obeyed.
Sakura woke up early. Today was the day they were returning to the village. Sakura glanced at the paper on the table, it had arrived yesterday. The Hokage wished to see her the moment they reentered the village. Hokage-sama probably knew about Kurai and what happened so far.
She stared at Itachi's peaceful expression and smiled. Sitting up she caressed his hair and felt her smile grow as he turned his head toward her touch, following it. He was like a… kitty! She swore she heard purring as well!
"Wake up Itachi-kun." It was funny since Itachi never slept in. He grumbled but reluctantly opened his eyes. His eyes soften at the sight of Sakura and sat up, leaning closer. Capturing her lips.
He couldn't stop! It was so addicting. Her unique sweet taste, her pleasant scent, he just couldn't get enough. The way she enticed him with her small noises… and it was all his. Finally, he could safely say that Sakura was his. Not that it would matter, deep within him a dark side of him knew that she was his even if she said no.
"We should wake up." Sakura whispered even as she stared at Itachi who now straddled her stomach, her hands caught by his legs as well. Her breath hitched as he leaned forward, his right hand trailing down her face… her neck… while his other hand balanced him in front of her.
"…I'm serious Itachi-kun, we need to get up." Sakura's voice got stern but apparently he fell deaf to it, entranced by her soft pink-tinged skin. Sighing Sakura lifted her legs, wrapped it around Itachi's stomach, and pulled him down.
Startled, he fell. Before he could regain his composure she sat up, sitting on top of him this time. "I said, dear Itachi-kun that we need to get up." She sugar coated her voice. "And… if you do anything perverted, I'll twist you neck off!" she smiled at him, making Itachi sweat drop.
"Sure."
"Good, you can shower first!" she exclaimed, pushing him towards the bathroom. "You need it more than I do." She mumbled.
"You called for me Hokage-sama?" Sakura entered, feeling dread. The Third Hokage's face wasn't happy.
"You do understand what you're getting yourself into, Sakura." Sakura flinched. "H-Hai…" Sarutobi's frown deepened "Yet you foolishly continue your action… why is that?"
"I dug a hole too deep and now I can't get out of it." Sakura answered simply.
"You can end it all, go back to your time period and forget this ever happened!" Sakura sighed. "I wish it was as easy as that…" the Hokage sighed, his eyes softening "Yes, I suppose this isn't the easiest thing to do."
"Is this all Hokage-sama?" Sarutobi shook his head "Remember Sakura, choose your actions wisely. That is all." He added. Sakura froze and nodded slowly, turning to leave.
'Things are going too fast for my taste…' Sakura thought as she stared at the Uchiha's garden. Itachi was on a mission, he said it was simple so he would be back soon. Kaosu and Hikaru were out and last she saw chibi-Sakura and Sasuke chibi-Sakura was being interrogated by Hiro. Chibi-Sakura had ended up being dragged off by Sasuke and Hiro's cousin.
(AN: Check my new story for more info on that part! I'm writing it but I want your opinion if you like it so check my bio, see the summary, and tell me if you want me to post it!)
The talk with Sarutobi had taken some time and it was already getting dark. Hikaru and Kaosu had arrived a few minutes ago and Hikaru was already getting ready for dinner.
"Bored…" she mumbled. She paused at the familiar chakra.
"I can fix that." Glancing up she saw Itachi.
"How?" Itachi sat down in front of her. He stared at her for a moment before pointing his fingers at her shoulder. She barely contained a gasp as he pushed and swiped below her legs, sending her flying before she landed on Itachi's lap. "That's better." He whispered in her ear, nipping it affectionately.
He groaned as Sakura squirmed on his legs. His actions grew rough as his lips slithered down. Sakura felt her breathing become irregular as she felt his teeth brushing against her skin when she felt him growling.
"You're mine… whoever gave you this mark means nothing to you!" he suddenly snapped. Sakura remembered the mark Sasuke had given her.
She closed her eyes in pain when he sank his canines on her other shoulder where she wasn't marked. Just like Sasuke's had done before, chakra had been laced and the pain turned to pleasure. Sakura couldn't contain the moan as his teeth sank in a bit deeper.
Itachi nuzzled into her neck, in a sort of an odd apology as he licked the blood from her mark. Sakura felt as though the suddenly shock of pain had brought her out of her thoughts. He was losing control!
Gathering all her willpower, Sakura pushed Itachi's chest and straddled on top of his stomach. "Obaachan, can I sleep over tonight?" looking up Sakura saw Itachi's cousin, Michiko, standing there red face. "Sorry!" she squeaked running away.
"Sorry…" Itachi whispered as he sat up slightly. Sakura shook her head "Its fine, the bleeding stopped already." Sakura added reassuring. He stared at her for a moment before reaching out, placing his rough calloused hand against her soft cheek. Sakura felt uncomfortable at his piercing stare while he stroked her cheek.
"Dinner's ready." Itachi suddenly grunted abruptly as he stood up, helping her up. Sakura stared at his back as he walked away, feeling a sense of dread at seeing him look so… impassive all of a sudden.
Sakura couldn't sleep. Something was going to happen… but what? She had a dreaded feeling gathering within her stomach and it refused to allow her to sleep. Her instincts were screaming. Something was going to happen tonight!
She stiffened when she heard the sliding door open. She paused when she felt that it was Itachi's chakra. He kneeled beside her and stared at her form, she could feel his eyes on her. Itachi had been acting funny ever since the incident with Sasuke.
"I know you're awake." Sakura stayed silent as she slowly sat up, turning her face towards him when suddenly he tackled her with a kiss. Sakura almost screamed in surprise but it was smoldered. "Sakura." He breathed out, making her shiver.
"I won't lose you to anyone." He whispered. His voice sounded so dark… it frightened her. What had gone between Sasuke and Itachi when they had fought? Did it have anything to do with their fight at all?
Itachi felt as if he was going to go crazy. He couldn't even sleep without her warmth beside him. Without her within his sight range he felt as if someone was going to take her away from him.
The possessiveness that had appeared when he first kissed her appeared with a stronger force. Itachi was seriously contemplating the thought of taking Sakura away, away from eyes and place her somewhere she would forever be his.
"Marry me."
