Chapter III- Anything but That

Sakura woke up, she had a horrible headache and she didn't feel too good.

She went and got her mail, there was a big box, and when she opened it, there was a little card inside

(Inner Sakura- Was all that even neccessary?) she opened it and read it.

It was an invitation to a reunion, well more like forced, she avoided the last four, but she couldn't get out of this, she just doesn't like her family.

She got dressed for school, 'I feel like I can sleep for the next three days straight' Sakura thought.

She brushed her teeth and all that, then started walking to school.

"Sakuwa! Sakuwa!" little Nari ran over to Sakura .

Sakura gave Nari a weak smile "What's wong?" Nari had the cutest look when she gets sad.

"Nothing, don't worry about me, how are you?" Sakura said with a smile.

Naruto walked up with his hands behind his head ((A/N- yeah, like he does in the show some times))

"Hey Sakura, what's wrong with you?" Sakura was already starting to get irritated with that question.

Naruto saw her irritation and decided to leave it alone .

"Want a ride?" he asked.

"uh, yes- no-wait-uh-Yeah, I'll take one" Sakura wanted to walk but yet she didn't.

Sakura couldn't help but to fall asleep in the car.

When they got to the school, Naruto shook her "Sakura" he shook her some more, she opened her eyes "Yeah?" she let out a yawn.

"We are at school, are you sure you're okay?", "yes, I'm sure! I'm just sleepy from staying up all night" Sakura lied.

Sakura put her hurting head down on the desk."Sakura, are you okay?" asked Kakashi-sensei.

"Yes,yes , yes!" yelled Sakura totally annoyed by the question.

Everyone in the classroom was staring at her. She held her head and sat down, she fought falling asleep the rest of the day.

The bell rang for dismissal from school.

She walked, when she was at the big house, she sat for a minute, but then fell out. ((A/N- yes this would be a nice place to end the chapter, for like a cliff hanger, but then this chapter wouldn't have anything to do with it's title, and I don't feel like ending it here))

She woke up, she was in a room she had never seen before.

The walls were a soft apricot color. The bed was a darker pink with designs of Sakura flowers on it, and it had alot of pretty pink pillows that matched Sakura's hair color.

She walked over to the window, there was an apple blossom tree, over many types of flowers, and a few chrysanthemums.

"fascinated?" the cold voice brought a shiver down her spine.

He walked next to her. "it's...pretty" she didn't want to look at is cold face.

"w-why are you so cold and..distant?" she bit her tongue, she didn't mean to say that ((A/N- thy tongue is evil(quoted somewhere in the bible))

There was along silence, she didn't want to look at him, she dug in her pocket and brought out the letter. the one she hated.

She read it over and crumbled it up. " A reunion?" asked Sasuke. 'I thought I she lived with her family' he thought.

"I hate them, I want to kill him" Sakura knew she had said too much.

"Coming from the same person who said I wanted revenge" said Sasuke, he wasn't expecting that.

"I never said that I didn't want revenge on someone, I'm not taking my anger out on everyone and seperating myself from the world though" Salura replied calmly.

There was an long silence. "Well not all of them,just him, my dad, he killed my mother and constantly is trying to do something to ruin my life, he enjoys seeing me in pain, and if he ever had the chance, he would've killed me"

Those words ran through Sasuke's mind ' him, my brother, Itachi' he thought, all the times Itachi would almost kill Sasuke, and how his parents stood and laughed, ran through his mind.

''How about you Sasuke, who do you hate?" Sakura looked at him waiting for a reply. He got up and walked out the room without answering,

One of the maid's walked into the room and started to make up her bed.

"Please, don't worry about it, I'll make the bed" Sakura told the maid.

She found herself coughing, harder and harder, then she threw up, and the last thing she saw was the maid running over, Sasuke coming into the room, blood, then nothing.

She slowly opened her eyes, "Are you feelig better? I'll go tell master you're up" the maid said in a sweet voice.

Sakura hesitated to get up, but her body wouldn't let her, so she slowly drifted back into sleep.

Sakura woke up several times, then she finally grabbed her things and silently left the house.

She stoppped many times to take a break, she wasn't even that far but it felt like she had alot to go, like if she was five miles from home or something.

When she finally got home, she couldn't make it upstairs to her bed,so she fell out on her couch.

She reached over to her phone, she would do anything but that, but she had no choice.

She picked up the phone and called the family doctor, the one she hated.
