Forgive me


I really do apologize for a song-fic style for this chapter. It's pretty short though and it fits well. The song lyrics are centered and in Italics.

"Forgive Me"

Kakashi and Sakura continued to stay silent.Sakura sighed. "What to do now?" She asked.

"...I dunno." Kakashi said.

"I have to go see Hinata and Ino. They're probably feeling down right now." Sakura told him.

"Why?"

"Because they both lost people important to them. They're sensei's, and the people that they cared about most." She said.

"I really think you should just wait 'till tomorrow." Kakashi said to her.

"Why?" Sakura asked. "I mean, it's not like I'll maul every living thing I see." She laughed. But Kakashi didn't find it at all funny.

"I'm serious! This isn't a laughing matter!" Kakashi defended, not realizing he had yelled at Sakura. Who wasn't going to take that.

"Why?" She asked in a stuck-up tone. "Oh I'm sorry! I'm rejecting an order from you. Well, maybe Sasuke and Naruto will stick up for me! Naruto? Sasuke?" No answer. "Oh wait! I forgot! They're dead." She said with total, complete and un-mistake-able rage. Kakashi didn't retort back.

Can you forgive me again?
I don't know what I said.
But I didn't mean to hurt you.

I heard the words come out.
I felt like I would die.
It hurt so much to hurt you.

Then you look at me.
You're not shouting anymore.
You're silently broken.

"I didn't..." Kakashi started but didn't finish. He sighed. "I'm leaving."

"Why? Out to find another victim?" Sakura asked. She was about to say something more when she thought back on all she said and thought; "Did I really say all that? Did I really sound that mean?" She then realized that she should take it back. "Wait. Kakashi-sensei I-"

"Didn't you hear me?! I said I'm leaving." Kakashi said angrily, then turned and left.


I'd give anything now,
to keep those words from you.

l Sakura sighed. "Great..." She thought aloud. "This is just perfect." At first, all she could do was somewhat fume at herself, until she cried. "All I have left is a few people that understand and care for me. And I have one that truly understands and I chase him away. I can't beleive I'm becoming the one thing that I...I..." She couldn't talk anymore. "And still after all that. I can tell that he won't truly ever leave me alone."

Each time I say something I regret I cry, "I don't want to lose you."
But somehow I know that you will never leave me.

"I need to go out now." She said to herself but couldn't lift herself from the bed. "Well then, guess I'm not going anywhere." She fell back on the bed on her back. All she could think about was how much 'fun' they all had before the Chunnin exams. (A/N: Or if you read the manga, the Journey-man ninja exams.) It was fun to watch them all. Naruto, Sasuke and Kakashi. How Sasuke and Naruto would argue, and then Kakashi would tell them to get a room or something. And then they would forget their differences and try to kill Kakashi.


Cause you were made for me.
Somehow I'll make you see.
How happy you make me.

"All three of them are the main components of my life. Two of them are gone and I'm not about to let the third go!" She decided.


I can't live this life.
Without you by my side.
I need you to survive.

She was about to get about and walk through the door when Kakashi stepped in. "Oh. You're still awake." He said bitterly.

"Kakashi-sensei..." Sakura began. "I'm sorry about what I said earlier."

"Sure you are." Kakashi said sarcastically.

So stay with me.
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry.

Kakashi sighed. "It's okay. I understand." He still wanted to turn and walk out again, but stayed. Sakura smiled, happy to still have one of her three components.

And you forgive me again.
You're my one true friend.
And I never meant to hurt you.
