Chapter 13 - Uchiha Sasuke
Satsuki stayed in the hospital for another week before she was allowed to stay at Sasuke's house again. Sasuke visited frequently and even managed to get Naruto and Sakura passes to visit whenever they wanted. Soon she was up and moving, but was told to take it easy. So she walked to Sasuke's house in the early morning to keep from drawing attention.
"Sasuke. I'm back." she said in her usual voice.
"Satsuki?" Sasuke looked up from his breakfast. "What're you doing here so early?"
"I didn't want to draw attention to myself. So I came early." she explained, sitting down.
"Oh. Ok." he got up and cleaned his plate off, done with breakfast. "I was going to come and pick you up."
"Yea. But you're not to perky in the mornings..." she smiled and grabbed the box that held her breakfast. "I suppose you were going to bring this with you too?"
"Yea." as he said this she opened the box and began eating.
"So. Do you have training today?" she asked. Sasuke had had a lot of training in the last week, she supposed this was normal but they had been slacking. Sasuke nodded. "Great, you train, I'll sit down and...do something." she looked around as she spoke.
Sasuke didn't look like he wanted to go to training today. He was ready and everything, but still looked reluctant.
"You were going to use getting me as an excuse to skip out weren't you?" she smirked at Sasuke, who looked away.
"No."
"Whatever." she waved her hand as if to brush a thought away and stood up to clean her plate. "You should get going." she motioned towards the door.
Sasuke muttered something under his breath but left anyways. Satsuki smirked at the door and then went walking around the house. She laid down on the couch and stared at the ceiling, where little pieces of paper were tapped. She took a pencil and threw it at the ceiling, it hit, leaving a small pencil mark and then falling back down.
"Heh." she did this for about an hour. The pencil got stuck on the roof after that amount of time. Then she fell asleep. The pencil dropped from the ceiling and landed on the ground next to the couch.
Sasuke arrived back about 6 hours later... no, 7 hours, whatever. Around noon Sasuke opened the front door. "I'm home." it still seemed weird to say that when he opened the door.
He looked around and didn't see anyone, but noticed the ceiling near the couch was covered in paper. He walked over to see Satsuki sleeping. He smiled, then noticed the pencil on the ground and picked it up. He put two and two together, Satsuki had been targeting the paper and throwing the pencil at them.
He put a hand on her shoulder and shook lightly. "Hey. Hey Satsuki." she mumbled a groan. "You hungry or not? I'm only making lunch once."
She opened her right eye and glanced over at him as if to say, 'But I'm tired! Make it later!' he just shook his head and went to make his lunch. She rolled over so that she was facing the back of the couch. Sasuke finished making lunch and began eating, making sure that the smell of it went over to Satsuki. She fought it off, because she wasn't really hungry, but the smell of cooked food made her hungry and she soon turned over and gave him a pleading look.
"Can I have some?" she asked in a small, child-like voice. Sasuke rolled his eyes.
"There's more in there." he said in a uninterested way, she smiled and ran to get some.
Satsuki sat down across from Sasuke. They didn't talk...they just ate...quietly. Soon Sasuke was up and cleaning his plate, Satsuki right behind him.
"Are you going back out now that you've eaten?" Satsuki asked. He nodded. "Well, I'll see you later then." she smiled. Sasuke looked both confused and freaked out by that smile...
"Bye." Sasuke then left again. Satsuki dropped the smile act.
She opened her jacket, which she'd gotten from the hospital, and took out a package. She opened it and found the jacket with the Uchiha clan fan on it. Satsuki closed her eyes to keep from crying.
"I'm sorry Sasuke." she muttered, turning and running down the hall. The jacket fell to the floor, still partially wrapped. She ran to Sasuke's room, behind the curtains and began to rip her stuff down. She took the bag she'd used before moving here and stuff her stuff inside. Satsuki threw it over her shoulder and ran back to the living room.
'To leave...is the hardest thing!' her mind was yelling. 'Forgive me!' Tears began falling from her eyes as she ran out the back door, dropping a piece of paper on the counter as she ran. 'If I leave now...if I don't look back...I can leave it all behind...'
Preview : "To chose the hardest path...turns it all upside down. Dreams become nightmares, comfort becomes pain. Friends become enemies, or even worse...strangers. Memories haunt you and though they can't remember, those dearest to you fall to pieces. Help to pick up the pieces, and the world is born anew."
