A Reason to Leave; a Reason to Love

Chapter 7: Adjusting…Sasori's POV
It was awkward being around her. I mean what do people exactly talk about with the woman who killed you. And though normally I enjoy the silence but this time it was just deafening to the point where I could barely hear myself think. She was making breakfast for herself and I was waiting for the toaster to finish so I could get the hell out of here.
I mean it was bad enough having her around since she killed me. But now I-I was having feelings for her. That is just not natural; it didn't make sense to like her for any logical reasoning. Of course Sakura is an intelligent, beautiful, kind, strong and passionate woman. So it only made sense that any man would fall to his knees for her.
Even the stoic as ever Uchiha and money-loving Kakuzu had in someway been bewitched by this minx. Speaking of the Uchiha he had left for a mission a week ago and still hadn't gotten back yet. He was supposed to get back two says ago. Leader had sent Zetsu out to find him because it was unnatural for him to take longer than necessary on a mission.
Sakura seemed a little worried and had gone to leader and that was the only reason that Zetsu volunteered to go after Itachi. Zetsu seemed to like Sakura; both liked the plants that Zetsu grew in his garden. Sakura was taking care of the flowers while he was gone.
God I wanted to get out of this kitchen, being around her was too much. I would much rather prefer the two idiots compared to this.
I guess thinking about a person really makes them appear. Hidan and Deidara were coming into the kitchen to get some breakfast and looked like they had just rolled out of hell. Deidara's hair was a nest and his eyes looked like they were about to close at any moment. Hidan's normally slicked back hair was just up and to the side and everywhere around his face, he wasn't wearing a shirt and only had his amulet and he was just dead on the table. Why were they out of bed if they were that dead tired?
"Bitch, make me some fucking breakfast," grumbled out Hidan, sadly not tired enough to stop cursing or to shut up.
"I don't think so Hidan I didn't hear a please in there so you aren't getting me to cook for you. And also, you'll have to call me by my actual name if you want me to. Dei-kun would you like some breakfast?" Sakura said, sounding sweet at the end. Hidan's head popped up and he slapped Deidara's face on the table as the blonde was about to respond.
"Fine Sakura-chan, would you fucking please make me some breakfast because I am so dead shit tired?" Hidan said in a sugar coated voice while he looked mad as hell.
"Of course I will Hidan-kun! Now that wasn't so hard not was it? Don't worry Dei-kun I'll make you something too," Sakura said before I slipped out of the kitchen before I had to be around her any longer or killed either one of those two for acting that way around her.
A Few Hours Later in the Medical Ward…Sakura's POV
"God damn it Itachi! You are an idiot getting hurt like this! Now you got my shiny, new, sparkling clean medical ward room all dirty with your blood dripping everywhere. God, you are so annoying sometimes," I said to him as I patched up the gaping wound in his stomach.
Zetsu had just brought him in twenty minutes ago looking like a freshly mauled carcass and was dumped on my table to fix. As soon as he woke up I began to lecture him for two reasons. Number one being that I liked my new office, it was clean and unused. But then he just had to get hurt do I had to patch him up by Pein-sama's orders. And the second one being, that he was probably in pain even if I pumped him with morphine, so it was a way of distracting him.
It was a bad wound and apparently Sasuke had done this to him since they bumped into each other on Itachi's way back. I was worried that since Itachi was heading in this direction if anybody will be coming to check if the base id around here…which it is. I didn't want anybody else ruining my ward. Itachi was bad enough as it was. Was it so wrong to want a sparkling clean medical area to treat people? I don't think so.
"Forgive me Sakura-san, I was not expecting to be noticed when I passed the clearing of which my Otouto and his teammates were located in," Itachi said in a quiet voice, not seemingly noticing all the blood he was losing. Uchiha's and there need to be indifferent to everything…pisses me off.
"Whatever Uchiha, just make sure it doesn't happen again, okay? You're free to go I'm done with you. Now I just have to clean this place up," I said as I looked around…with the blood stains I would need the serious power of bleach to remove the stains from the white tile and grout.
I was suddenly snatched by my wrist and turned around to look at Itachi who was staring directly into my eyes. "Sakura…thank you," Itachi said and with that I was stunned. I was left paralyzed and unable to respond. And suddenly he was leaning forward. His lips on a path to mine and no matter how much I wanted to move I just couldn't.
Thankfully I didn't have to seeing as how Kisame just burst into the door with his shark like grin. He ran up to me and picked me up, and then he ran right back out and set me down and began to drag me in the direction of the living room.
"Come on Sakura, we're all just about to watch a movie and you are going to watch it too. I forget the name but Deidara said it was really funny. So come-" Kisame was cut off mid-sentence as Lily burst through the hallway and tackled him and seemed to be trying to lick Kisame's face of.
"Looks like Lily is hungry for sushi Kisame!" I exclaimed while running down the hallway to my room. I needed to be by myself, everybody needed a little alone time. Just to relax and all, and all this week it seemed that the other Akatsuki members besides Pein and Konan were trying to just steal away all my alone time. Selfish Bastards.
All this week one of the members had been at my side. Talking to me, I mean I didn't mind it too much, despite their reputations none of them were actually that bad. It was just that they were doing something by orders of their leader, didn't ninja of ordinary villages do that already?
I enjoyed being in the Akatsuki, I had been here 2 weeks and I loved it. Of course I had a feeling that after a little more time these feeling would go away and I would just be fine with being in the Akatsuki. I did enjoy sparring with them all though, I learned a lot more than I did alone or in Konoha.
After a while of thinking of my time here at the Akatsuki base and its crazy, diverse, and unique members, I realized everything would be fine here. People didn't think I was a weakling here, and that meant I could continue to grow as a ninja. I fell asleep eventually dreaming of different things.
I didn't notice because I was to tired to realized when Kakuzu came into the room wishing to discuss some things with me. Nor when he draped a warm blanket over my sleeping figure.
