Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, except in my dreams.
A/N: This is really short. That's the first thing I thought about it once I finished it. The second thing I thought was that it was sad. Why can't I write anything fluffy with LeeSaku in it?
This has some Sakura-bashing in it. Lee might be a bit OOC, but I thought that he would be in a situation like this.

"Why?"
That single word was all he asked her. It was enough.
When she couldn't answer him, it was too much. He couldn't take it anymore.
He couldn't take her anymore.
"I'm sorry…"Those two words were all she managed to say to him. His eyes, often called one of his less flattering features, fixed on the dark-haired young man beside her for a brief moment.
Later, the girl would remember that moment as an eternity.
He turned, his grip tightening around the beautiful bouquet of lilies that he had bought for her, crushing the fragile blossoms.
"Please, you can't—!"She cried those three words in a choked voice, her hands futilely reaching out to grasp him, to hold him. He hardened his heart, determined to ignore her.
He felt a single tear fall.
She could have flooded the world.
"No, Sakura. I can."
And with those four words, the flowers hit the ground. He had broken them, like she had broken him.
Like he was now breaking her. He clutched the stems.
He couldn't do that.
Not to her.
"Uchiha… take care of her."
At those five words, filled with both wisdom and warning, Sasuke merely nodded.
As Lee walked away, Sakura picked up a single broken lily and wept.

A/N: I feel bad for bashing Sakura, so I'm going to go finish writing my NaruHarem parody. I'll probably post it today, since I'm almost done with it and this was so short.
If this gets enough reviews, I'll definitely post it today. If I get no reviews, I'll wait until tomorrow.
