Sakura woke up finding herself in a hospital bed. Her head was still aching. But her heart was aching much, much more. 'What happened?' She thought to herself. Suddenly it all flooded back in her mind. She could feel more tears. She wanted to resist them so bad. "Pathetic." She whispered to herself. 'He's right that is what I am, my definition. I've only gotten in the way.'
Tsunade entered the office. "Oh Sakura your awake?" Sakura heard the 5th Hokage's voice but she didn't want to turn around. "Sakura" Tsunade called. Sakura knew the Hokage's temper. She turned around slowly. Tsunade looked upon Sakura's face. She could she the sadness, the hurt, she could see the tears that were lingering in Sakura's eye beds.
She sighed "Sakura here are your vitals" She left vital sheet on the bed and exited the room. Sakura looked over at it. She knew what it had to say.
She lay back down on the bed. She stared up at the ceiling. The lights in the hospital were buzzing as expected from the silence that had lurked in the room. The only sound that could be heard was the coherent buzzing and the sound of Sakura exhaling and her inhales.
"He's really gone. He really left? He left me…and he left us." A tear began to trickle down her soft, white cheek. She quickly wiped it off. How could she expect to get stronger if she cried.
She got back of the bed and ran out the door of the hospital room. She spotted the blonde Sanin. "Tsunade Sama" Sakura cried in order to get the Hokage's attention who was about to exit out of the hospital. Tsunade's eyes widened as she turned around. "Hmm…yes Sakura." Sakura stopped in front of Tsunade breathing heavily from just running. "I need to get stronger Lady Tsunade. I need to get strong enough to bring Sasuke back."
Tsunade looked at the pink haired girl who was standing before her. "Sakura, I would love to be your teacher but right now…" "I know" Sakura replied cutting her off. "Not until this whole…situation blows over. But please Lady Tsunade soon."
Tsunade sighed "Fine, Sakura but only after…" "I know" Sakura replied. "Goodnight Sakura" Lady Tsunade made her exit out of the hospital door. She sighed as she thought to herself 'she still loves him doesn't she.'
(2 weeks later)
Sakura sat in the ramen shop with all of her friends except Naruto who was on a mission…and of course Sasuke wasn't there. Shikamaru, Chouji, Ino, Kiba, Shino, and Hinata were there. They were all in some distinct conversation that Sakura had no interest in paying attention to. Her mind felt like it had been in a haze filled with confusion. 'It's been 2 weeks why can't I get over this?' She thought to herself.
She still felt as if he was still in Konoha. As if any moment now he would be walking down the street totally ignoring her and then Ino would run up to him and drag him into the ramen shop, never letting go of his arm. She closed her eyes with unfortunate persistence she had to hold back the tears, she couldn't handle anyone asking her "What's wrong?" It was to big a question for her right now.
Kiba noticed something different about Sakura. sniff sniff "Hey Sakura, your scent is different." Her emerald green eyes opened wide as her cheeks turned a bright scarlet. "KIBA! YOU DON'T JUST GO AROUND FREAKIN' SNIFFING PEOPLE" She got up from the table with an annoyed expression which dawned upon her face. She stomped off from the shop in which all her friends remained with scared and confused faces. Noodles hung out of Chouji's mouth as he asked "What's her problem?" He continued to eat his ramen as if he didn't even ask the question. Kiba looked over to the rest of his comrades. "I don't know but something smelled different about her." Everyone except Shino and Hinata stared strangely at Kiba. "What?" Inuzuka asked. "I hate to say this but Sakura is right. You're weird, no real man, a man like Sasuke, would go around smelling people it's just not cool." "Calling Sasuke a man when he left the village and abandoned every friend he ever had not caring about anyone but himself. Only the most ignorant person would still call him a man Ino." Shino replied in a cold hard voice. Ino's face went into a bit of shock being embarrassed.
Shino stood up. "Next time don't make fun of my best friend." He put money on the table next to his empty bowl and walked away." Ino scoffed "What's his problem?" Shikamaru began to speak. "He's right you know. Sasuke betrayed us all…" Hinata cut in "We forget to realize though that it affected Sakura the most."
