"Sasuke?" Sakura asked. She was dead tired, and she had a nasty headache. Sasuke wasn't in the room, and she was pretty sure the others were back. In an attempt to stand Sakura became dizzy and fell back down on the bed. "Damn." she grabbed the crutches from her leg injury and used them for support until she reached the door. Fumbling with the knob she walked out and into the hallway, seeing something she hadn't really wanted to.
"Hinata! Naruto!" she screamed. Hinata was on the ground, Naruto on top of her, and Hinata was topless, like Sakura had been with Sasuke, and Naruto was also shirtless.
"Sakura." Hinata shirked, throwing Naruto off of her, and pulling her shirt on.
"Sorry,." Naruto said, an ashamed look on his face.
"No, I don't care what you do with each other, just not outside my bedroom door, now go to Hinata's room." Sakura said. Naruto played a foxy smile on his face, and scooped Hinata up and carried her away. "Wait." Hinata looked at her. "Where's everyone else?"
"Ino and Tenten are at the Guy's house with Shikamaru and Neji, Sasuke went somewhere." she called before disappearing.
"Okay." Sakura walked into the kitchen, where she got herself a glass of water. And waited for Sasuke, who came in not long after. "Hey." she said when he walked into the kitchen. "What's wrong?" he looked like he had been bitched slapped and then dumped.
"Read this." he handed her the envelope Itachi had given him in his previous visit. Sakura read it over and her eyes grew waded. "Sasuke this. . ."
Dear
Sasuke Uchiha, young master of the Uchiha Estate,
it has come to
our attention that you have taken up residence in Konoha, and have
found yourself a female counterpart. The will of your mother and
father states that which ever young Uchiha is married off first will
not receive one cent of the inheritance, there for you will either
declare your wedding date or wait to marry until you become of age
and inherit your share of the money.
Your lawyer, Hisimo Utaka.
"Sasuke when do you turn eighteen?" Sakura asked, shock in her voice.
"Three months." he stated simply.
"So as long as you say you are not married you'll be fine right?" Sakura asked, some hope flooding her system.
"No, because this means until I am eighteen I am not aloud to even have a girlfriend, Sakura we cant be seen alone together until I turn eighteen."
"Sasuke that's bull, cant you just bend the rules a bit?" she asked.
"No because chances are, Itachi has his goons watching, so I'm sorry." he walked out of the house, slamming the door behind him.
How could this be happening? Sakura was just temporarily dumped? After they just got back together? Well spring break was coming up, maybe she could go stay with Kankuro, and his fiancée. She decided that would be best, but what if they were going somewhere? No she knew what she could do. She ran to the phone and quickly dialed seven digits.
"Hello?"
"Temari?"
"Sakura what's up?" Sakura explained the Sasuke thing. "Harsh, so you want to hang with me and Gaara for a bit?"
"Yeah is that okay?"
"Yeah."
"Okay, well during spring break we're going to the beach house, you coming?"
"Yeah that would be great, Thanks a bunch Temari." the line went dead, and Sakura ran to her room, and packed a bag. She hastily wrote a not explaining everything, and jumped on her bike speeding across town to the edge where Suna resided, and Temari and Gaara lived.
Sakura woke to the banging in the kitchen, Temari trying to make breakfast, even though she couldn't cook to save her life, sakura and Gaara ate what she made. Sakura had been with them for three days, and had yet to be contacted by anyone else. She desperately missed Sasuke. She tried to call him at least thirty times, but he hadn't answered. She eventually gave up. Sakura would find herself staring into space, imagining him there with her, holding her, kissing her.
"Sakura, you up?" Gaara called.
"Yeah, hey can I borrow the car?" she asked. "I want to go pick up a few things, but I cant use my bike?"
"Yeah, sure." he walked in and brought Sakura the keys. What are you getting?" he asked.
"A dog." she said plainly.
"What?"
"Gaara, I'm going crazy, everywhere I look I see Sasuke, I have no idea how I'm going to last three months, when it's only been three days." Sakura said waving her hands in the air, pulling her clothes on.
"Sakura you seriously need to get a life. He said leaving the room.
Sakura said nothing but grabbed her money and the car keys, and ran outside, speeding off to the mall. She walked to the pet store, she looked at all of the kittens, but she wasn't much of a cat person. She went past the fish, and found the puppies. There were poodles, and prissy dogs, but there was one that caught her eye.
It was a Doberman pincer, with dark eyes, and a beautiful black and rust color. "Excuse me miss?" she called over one of the women working there, "Yes?"
"How much is she?" she asked pointing to the Doberman.
"Two fifty." she said, Sakura shelled out two fifty for the dog, another fifteen for the bed, ten for the bowels, and fifteen for food, and another thirty for the collar and license. Her total came to three twenty. She placed the dog in the passenger seat, and drove to the park.
"What am I going to call you?" she asked looking at the puppy, who was looking at her with the wide dark eyes she loved. She reminded her of Sasuke, but she wasn't going to call her Sasuke, so what was she going to call her? Then it hit her, Candy.
"Well Candy let's go." Sakura pulled Candy out of the car, and took her into a empty spot in the field where they played for a bit. Little did Sakura know, that someone was watching her. . .
Two months had passed and Sakura had moved back to the mansion, but spent most of her time locked in her room with Candy. It was a bright June day, and Ino, Hinata, and Tenten had taken Candy to the park, Sakura was alone and decided to go for a walk though the park.
She was alone, and thinking to herself, when she felt the strange feeling someone was watching her. Who could it be? She looked and didn't see anyone. She kept walking, and was on the side walk, when a dark black van drove up right beside her. She thought it was just a convince or something, but then the side door opened, and she was pulled in.
Someone had gagged her, and someone else was tying her hands and feet together while someone else healed her down. She tried to scream, but couldn't get anything out passed the gag. She tried to see what was going on, but she couldn't see anything it was too dark.
She sat and tried to listen to the voices, but no one was talking. Someone was holding her while one guy drove. She figured there were about four. Soon the van screeched to a stop, and she was being lifted from the van, and pulled into a building. She was slammed into a chair, by now she was blind folded.
"Well Sakura, I must say, my younger brother has a good choice in woman." a cold voice said. Sakura recognized the voice. Itachi. Her heart went into panic. What did he want? Sasuke and her hadn't talked for almost three months. "Well, now I know why."
"Sakura felt her bounds being released and she looked into his dark soulless eyes. "What the hell do you want with me?" she asked.
"I want you." he said.
"Hell no, Sasuke will be eighteen in a week, and then we are getting back together." Sakura said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"That's what you think." he said. She soon found herself pressed against a wall, Hitachi pressing against her, trying to kiss her, but she kept moving her head. "Sakura, you will be mine."
"Like hell." Sakura turned and saw Sasuke standing there." Itachi removed himself from Sakura, and face Sasuke. "Damn." he saw a video camera Sasuke had. Now Itachi was screwed. All Sasuke had to do was show that to his lawyer, who was standing in the room. He handed Sasuke a very big envelope, and nodded to Sakura who was nearly in tears.
"Sakura." Sasuke said, running to her,. And wrapping her in his arms, kissing him all over. Touching, feeling, loving. "I missed you so much. I swear to you, I will never let you go again."
