Sakura struggled to open her eyes. The sunlight pierced through the curtains and forced to girl to open her eyes. Sakura was about to ignore the sunlight and went back to sleep when she realized there was something different. Or rather, were.
One. This is not her room. No pink walls, no pink furniture, no pink auras at all.
Two. Why were her clothes on floor?
Three. Someone is wrapping their arms around her waist and breathing steadily behind her.
Four. Sakura suddenly remembered everything.
The pink girl turned her head a bit, and saw a blue haired head.
Sakura gulped down. As yesterday night's images came back slowly to her, she blushed.
Sasuke was sleeping next to her, his arms were around her waist, and he was naked. Of, both of them were.
Sakura bit her lower lip. What had she done? She... She... Oh, Kami! How can fate be this cruel?
Sakura remembered her moaning calling Sasuke's name, the raven haired boy gentle kisses on her, the loving gazes Sasuke gave her non-stop, and... that.
Oh gosh, she's so in trouble right now!
She didn't mean to cry that heavy last night and brought this upon them. She didn't mean to break so sudden in front of Sasuke and had him brought the two of them back to his dorm. She didn't meant to sob that badly yesterday night and made Sasuke pitied her.
Pitied. That single word struck Sakura hard. What if everything that happened last night was... just something Sasuke did to calm her down?
Oh man. Did she made herself looked really low in front of Sasuke? Did she actually made the handsome ninja thought just how cheap she is?
Sakura bit her lower lip in order to not let her tears fell down. She looked at Sasuke's sleeping face. He looked so peaceful. His raven hair was disheveled.
Sakura lifted one of her hands to touch Sasuke's cheek. But then she stopped midair. Suddenly, she was so scared those closed eyes would open and looked at her own eyes. She feared Sasuke's words once he awakened.
Sakura couldn't help it but let her tears dripped down as she knew she can't denied it anymore. She loved Sasuke more than words could express.
Sakura covered her mouth with her hand and cried silently. With tears still dripping down, she moved Sasuke's arms from her waist gently. Sasuke shifted a bit. He then rolled over, releasing his grip on her.
Sakura sobbed a bit but slowly she got up from the bed. She wore her clothes back and then took another look on Sasuke. He was still sleeping peacefully. His muscular arms were up and down steadily, following the rhythm of his breathing.
Without any sound, Sakura walked out from Sasuke's room while crying heavily.
Sasuke woke up when sunlight forced its way in to his room. He yawned then glanced at his side. Sakura isn't there.
Sasuke shot his eyes open and sat up on his bed. He looked over to the floor, and found his clothes only. Sakura's was gone.
Sasuke blinked. Did Sakura just leave him without a word like that? Sasuke blushed when he remembered everything that happened last night. Her moans, her shrieks, the way she called his name, everything. Didn't Sakura remember that? Didn't she realized how beautiful yesterday night was?
He need to talk to her.
"As much as I wanted to help you, Sasuke, but I can't. Sakura is absent today." Ino sighed. "Her dorm room is empty too. Wonder where she had gone."
Sasuke didn't say anything but his face looked... hurt. Ino didn't fail to notice that.
"Did you do something to her?" Ino asked. "Wait, wrong question. What did the both of you do last night?"
"...hn."
Ino rolled her eyes. "Stop playing with me, Sasuke! Just tell me!"
Sasuke stayed silent but then he told her everything anyway. Ino didn't show any expressions, she's listening carefully.
"Okay," Ino said after Sasuke finished his story. "let me ask you one thing. Nope, two things. First, why did you kiss her?"
"Because she was crying, Ino! And I didn't want to see her tears!" Sasuke replied.
Ino lifted one of her eyebrows, demanding more answer. Sasuke clenched his teeth.
"I love her, Ino!" Sasuke said. "I fell deeply in love with her!"
Ino smiled shortly. "Alright then. Second. Do you regret what happened last night?"
At this question, Sasuke widened his eyes. He then slammed Ino's desk - they're in her office now - with an angry face.
"I will never regret it!" Sasuke growled. "It meant everything to me! I would ask no one else to replace her for last night!"
Ino smiled again. "Now go tell her that, idiot." Ino said. "She's scared, Sasuke."
Sasuke widened his eyes. "Scared of what? I would push her away?"
Ino sighed. "No, something else. She scared on the chance that it was only a one night stand. Scared on the probability that you did it out of pity for her."
"Wha-? But-?"
"Whoa," ino cut. "did Uchiha Sasuke just stuttered?"
Sasuke glared at Ino. The blonde girl laughed.
"You can't blame Sakura for feeling that way, you know," Ino said. "it's basically your fault for leaving her just like that."
Sasuke shut his mouth. He suddenly remembered what Sakura told him last night.
I'm scared Sasuke... I'm scared you would push me away again like you used to be... Why can't I just erase my feelings for you?!
Ino smiled, seeing how frustrated the young Uchiha is. It's so rare to see the cool guys act like this, isn't it?
"Just talk to her. Tell her how you truly felt for her." Ino said. "She'll believe in you eventually."
"What if she doesn't?" Sasuke asked, almost whispered.
Ino widened her eyes in shock. "Did I just heard Uchiha Sasuke lost confidence?!" she shrieked. "In himself?! Because of love?! Oh dear Haruno Sakura, what did you do to make him sooo totally over you?!"
Sasuke glared at Ino and she smirked.
"Give her time, Sasuke." Ino said. "Sooner or later, she'll believe in you."
Sasuke sighed. "Fine." he muttered.
"Now go and find her, idiot," Ino cheered. "and don't ask me where she is, I don't know."
"You've called me idiot twice." Sasuke grumbled.
Ino laughed. "Go, go!" she encouraged him.
Sasuke rolled his eyes and stepped out from Ino's office. This time, he won't let Sakura go away from him. Once he caught her again, he will never let go of her.
Sakura sighed while looking at the clouds in sky. The sun was shining bright but Sakura didn't feel hot at all. She was sitting under on of Konoha's trees, perfectly covered from the sunlight. The tree's heavy leafs practically hid Sakura behind them, so no one could see her. Unless someone used their eyes abilities and traced her chakra. But she had learned how to suppress her chakra this past five years, practiced with Hinata and Kakashi.
Sakura closed her eyes as smooth wind blew her hair. The pink haired girl slowly opened her eyes, as last night's memory came back to her.
Tears came down slowly from Sakura's eyes as her fear came back. She still couldn't believe that she did something like that. And to make it worse, it was with Sasuke! Uchiha Sasuke! What should she do?
She had done something that was happened out of pity with someone that hated her badly!
How messed up that was? Sakura laughed bitterly as more tears came down. What's more bitter is that she didn't regret what happened last night. Not at all. For long painful five years, her love for the Uchiha prince stayed strong. And after Sasuke came back, her love for him firmly stayed, didn't even try to budge.
Sakura covered her mouth with the back of her hand and sobbed. How come she loved someone who didn't love her back?
What a bitter truth.
