Hey guys…..I know I know I took long to come up with a new chapter and I am sorry for the wait….I don't own NARUTO
"Norio Akamine, is after my eyes." Sakura said.
"Norio Akamine?" Sasuke asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Do you have to repeat?" Sakura asked while releasing a sigh.
"How do you know him?" Sasuke asked ignoring Sakura's last question.
"When I left the village, I didn't know anything about my eyes. But after some months I stopped in a village, that's where I found that something was actually wrong with my eyes." Sakura explained.
"But you did use your eyes here when we had…." Sasuke stumbled to speak the words.
"When we had the fight." Sakura completed for him.
"Yeah." Sasuke said in a low voice.
"I hate you Sasuke."
Sasuke shook his head to get that thought out of his head.
"Yeah I know that I used my powers then too. But at that time I was angry, I didn't know what I was doing." Sakura confessed.
"So what happened in the village?" Sasuke asked trying to change the subject.
"Couple of males were trying to rob a shop. That's when I came to know about my powers. I used them unconsciously to fight them off." Sakura said.
"So how did you meet Akamine?" Sasuke asked.
"It wasn't too long after I left the village. He approached me and offered me help for my eyes. He seem to know things about my eyes." Sakura said. Her expression turned grim.
Sasuke just heard her and decided not to say anything in between.
"He is the one who helped me to train my eyes." Sakura said in a monotonous voice.
Sasuke's eyes went wide.
"He is the one who made me this strong." Sakura again said but her voice was mixed with disgust.
She hung her head and whispered "And now the guy who helped to get this far in life is after me."
Tears spilled from her eyes and she was shaking.
"Sakura-"
"He is dangerous Sasuke. He too dangerous. He will not stop until he has me. So I am begging" She looked straight in his eyes "Let me go." She begged him with tears in her eyes.
"Do you" He said and stood up from the chair "really think" He walked towards her until he was standing behind her and waited for her to face him "That anyone of us will let you go again?"
Sakura looked in his eyes. His eyes held anger, anger at what she said.
"This is your problem." Sakura yelled. "You just don't know when to let go." She stood up and faced him.
What Sasuke did next, shocked Sakura out of her wits. He caressed her left cheek. He then placed his hand at the back of her head and hugged her.
"There is no way I am letting you go away again." He said softly.
Sakura's eyes went wide but she soon closed them and hugged him back.
"Thank you, Sasuke-kun." She said softly.
He pulled back abruptly. Sakura looked at him as to ask 'What?'
"Call me Sasuke-kun, not Sasuke." He said and again hugged her.
Sakura chuckled. "You are too full of yourself."
Sasuke let a faint smile grace his lips.
After their small moment, Sakura and Sasuke decided that it would be for the best if they go and tell the Hokage about this.
After hearing the story from Sakura, Hokage sighed. She knew that her apprentice was hiding something from her.
"So, should we find this guy and throw him in the jail or ban him from entering the village?" Sasuke suggested.
"That's not gonna have any effect, Sasuke-kun. Like I said before, he is freaking strong, putting a ban on him or putting him into jail isn't going to help." Sakura sighed.
"But we got to put you somewhere safe." Shizune said.
Silence.
"I have an idea." Sasuke said out of the blue.
"What?" Sakura said.
"Live with me." He said bluntly.
Three of them stared, shocked, at his face.
"WHAT?!" Sakura shirked, blushing like an academy girl.
Tsunade smirked "Nice idea, Uchiha."
"Hn." Sasuke smirked when he saw the blush on Sakura's face.
'She is cute.' After 2 seconds of Sasuke's comment. 'Where the hell did that come from?' He screamed internally.
"Keep her safe, Uchiha. Now get out." She kicked them out of her office.
"Why are you going so far with my protection? I can protect myself very well." Sakura hissed but the blush was still intact with her face.
'Damn this stupid blush.' She thought angrily.
"You yourself said that he was strong than us too. Wouldn't it be better if you lived with one of us. Or" He shot her a smug look "Would you prefer to live with Kakashi or Naruto?"
Sakura flinched at the thought of living with Naruto or Kakashi-sensei.
"I'll stick with you." She mumbled.
"I know." He replied.
Done…..I hope you like the chapter.
Stay tuned
