Chapter Three

Obstacles


"There are over six billion people in the world.."

"No matter how many other hearts you throw at me, the only one that I'll ever love is yours."

"..It doesn't matter, you're the only one I want."


Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide
(Though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep never die)


I've always wondered when people say 'I love you forever' is it true? Their forevers don't last. If you think about it.. when you are a child you think love is just holding hands and maybe a kiss on the cheek. When you are a teenager you think love is going out and kissing on the lips. When you are an adult you think love is just spending time with the one you cherish and making love. But.. what if your immortal? Then what happens?

Who knows, no one has ever revealed the secret they are immortal anyways. The only people who know the answer to the question is immortals themselves yet there was always a 'law' or a 'rule' for them that they cannot reveal the secret of their immortality ability. After all.. they would end up being hunted down and possibly killed. Though it may be impossible seeing as immortality also comes with highly skills.

Maybe, just maybe one day I would experience the same thrilling feeling of being immortal and having such amazing abilities and stay by Sasuke's side forever. Never leaving ever. No matter how many obstacles come in our way, we'll always overcome them. With or without using those amazing abilities. We made a promise together and we both will fulfill it till our life ends.

We'll be by each other's side no matter where and when.

Just like right now..

I yawned and simply nodded at whatever Naruto was telling me seeing as he had literally come banging through our bedroom door while I was still sleeping and was screaming something I couldn't comprehend. Sasuke was about to snap his neck in half and rip out his mouth but luckily I was able to stop him in time. These past few days, Naruto and I have bonded, we're like brothers and sisters now. Yup, that's how close we are now. Therefore, I do not want my 'brother' to be killed by my fiancé. That's a bit.. cruel, I mean he has to be there for my wedding after all!

"So Sakura-chan! How about it?" Naruto exclaimed cheerfully and was literally in my face with his shining blue eyes.

I blinked before a smile was plastered on my face, he was just so adorable! I was tempted to pinch his cheeks.

"Naruto, unless you want to see the devil soon I suggest you keep a distance away from my fiancée." Sasuke hissed out as he had an arm wrapped around my waist while his other arm was used to push Naruto's head back.

"B-but Sasuke-teme! She's like a sister to me! Let us siblings have some conversation! Right Sakura-chan?" Naruto grinned.

I simply stared at the two before laughing lightly at them and shaking my head, "My, my you two act like siblings."

At that I heard a hiss and a snort.

"Your kidding right Sakura-chan?! You and I are siblings!" Naruto anime cried.

"Sakura, please don't put me in the same category as this dobe over here." Sasuke sighed.

I laughed at their silly behaviors, they really were like brothers. They're bonds were probably closer than Naruto and mine.

- Current Scene -

Sasuke's eyes softened when hearing Sakura's light laugh. He couldn't help but let out a small smile and laid his head on Sakura's lap as he sighed in content.

Naruto on the otherhand – too preoccupied with Sakura's statement about Sasuke and him being brothers he scoffed before smiling hearing Sakura's laugh. He laid his head down on the couch beside Sakura's lap.

Emerald eyes softened at the sight before her. She placed one hand on Sasuke's head while the other one on Naruto's and began softly brushing through both their hairs. She closed her eyes in content and her smile widened. If days like these could last forever then maybe she would like to live forever and cherish all these precious moments she would experience.

- End Current Scene -


Soft tapping of my silver flats were heard in the school hallway as I made my way to class. The class I found the most boring and it seemed to love dragging on forever and ever. I sighed lightly as she opened the door to the classroom only to find it empty. I blinked and checked the clock and blinked. It seems to me that I was a tad too early. Then again, Naruto had came in the morning and ruined my sleep.. in which I'd like to call it my 'beauty' sleep but Sasuke always argues with me saying I don't need anymore of it as I am already beautiful enough.

I sighed again as I turned around and headed for my locker seeing as there was nothing to do in the classroom and I refuse to look like one of those people who enjoy classes a lot so they get up early in the morning just to be the first to sit in class so the teacher will love you. Nope, I hate being one of those people. And plus it makes you feel like a teacher's pet in which I despise.

"Haruno Sakura please report to the principal's office immediately."

More students began walking to their own respective classes but they stopped when they heard the announcements. Their sharp eyes stared at me as I felt like I was the only one walking in the hallways.. which sadly that was the case at the moment. No one else seemed to be walking and I was the only one even moving my muscles. I blinked, was it that unusual for someone to be called down to the office? I mean nothing bad would happen.. right?


"So that's the plan, you all understand right?"

"Yes."

"We cannot fail, our lord has appointed us a high standing job and we must complete it."

"Understood."

"Failure is not an option."

"Roger."

"Dismissed."


I frowned as the hallway to the principal's office was incredibly quiet.. not a comfortable silence either, it was one of those 'spooky' ones. As I arrived, I simply just stood there at the door to the office and stared. I was silently praying that nothing bad will happen to me seeing as Sasuke and the others were probably in class right now so I wasn't exactly feeling protected. The again Sasuke swore to protect me no matter what happens, he'll just be there. I smiled at that memory and that had erased all my worries.

I quickly opened the door and walked into the dimly lit room, "Principal, you wanted to see me?"

"Of course we wanted to see you Sakura-chan! We're going on vacation!" Naruto cheered as he glanced beside him to a blonde haired women whose chest was probably bigger than her own head.

"Ah yes, you must be the human girl that transferred here." She smiled lightly at me.

I smiled politely at her and bowed slightly, "It's nice to meet you, I'm Haruno Sakura, you must be Tsunade, principal of this school."

The blonde haired women – now known as Tsunade – stared at me before bursting out laughing, "My Sasuke, you have found quite a knowledgeable mere human."

My eyes narrowed slightly but I still continued smiling though she couldn't see, my fists were clenched tightly together. I swore if she wasn't the principal I would've probably yelled by now or maybe even throw a punch at her.. then again she's a vampire so I have no idea what her abilities her.. hell she might not even have any for all I know.

Nonetheless I blinked innocently, "What are you talking about Naruto? I don't remember you asking me to go on vacation with you, plus I still have studies to do and school to go to."

Naruto's grin widened, "Silly Sakura-chan, I asked you that this morning! Well you didn't reply but that counts as a yes! As for your school and studying issues, baa-chan he-.." Naruto immediately gulped lightly as he felt the 'Baa-chan's' dark aura.

"Uzumaki Naruto, if you don't change the subject about me being an old lady soon I'll rip your head in half." I heard her hissed out.

"U-um, I mean Tsunade will take care of your school and everything else so we're all set. As soon as you finish packing we'll be out of here." Naruto laughed nervously.

I sighed, there was probably no way out of this anyways, "Alright just let me grab my thin-.."

"No need, they're all here."

I immediately turned around hearing that familiar voice and quickly embraced the person, "Sasuke." At that moment I didn't care if my things were there or not. He was here and that was all that mattered to me right now.

He, of course, reacted and tightened his hold on me, bending his head slightly, stopping right beside my ear, "I'm sorry to drag you into this.."

I merely shook my head and glanced up at him before smiling, "It's alright, but you owe me."

Sasuke smirked, his dark eyes stared down at me, "Of course.."

I didn't know whether he meant in a sexual way or in some other romantic way.. he may seem cold to everyone else but hell he was heck of a guy. I mean he's so sweet! One time it was my birthday and he brought me like everywhere in the world! And he had every beautiful spot set up just for me. Well, I wouldn't exactly say it was all done on my birthday however it was his birthday present to me. It was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.

I smiled lightly at the memory before wrapping my arms around his neck and pulling his head down slightly and placed my lips upon his own. I heard him grunt before the arms around my waist tightened and pulled me closer making both our bodies press up against each other. I moaned lightly and he took advantage of my opened mouth – sticking his tongue in and our tongues began fighting for dominance.

I opened my eyes to see his blood red eyes staring back at me lustfully. I bet if we weren't in public he'd take me now. Then again I wouldn't be surprised if he did it right now, he was never the one to care about what other people thought of us. His eyes flashed dangerously as mine was only half opened and my moans began louder making it look more seductive.

I could feel his hands climbing up my shirt from behind while my hands began playing with his hair.

"Ahem."

I blinked and pulled back, though I was still in the tight protective embrace, I glanced behind me only to find Naruto holding his laughter in while Tsunade's eyebrow was twitching, "If you guys are going to suck each other's brains out.. DO IT OUTSIDE MY OFFICE!"

Sasuke merely smirked before easily taking three luggages in one hand while his other was wrapping around my waist as we walked out of the office, followed by Naruto who was grinning like an idiot.

"Damn teme, you know how to devour your women."

"Shut up usuratonkachi."


"Wow, Sasuke look! Dolphins!" I pointed over the railing towards the dolphins who were currently racing along our boat.

No, I can't even call it a boat, it's like friggin times two the size of the titanic. Jesus, what do people do with their lives nowadays, spend time building huge ass cruise ships? Like what the hell? And while I'm at it, there's BARELY anyone on this ship. Hell it's just the usual group – Sasuke, Me, Naruto, Hinata, Ino, Shikamaru, Tenten, Neji – and some other groups, few couples and one family. That's pretty sad. I had expected way more people but apparently not. I shall report it to those boat building people one day!

.. Yea I know that 'one day' isn't going to come cause I don't plan on sitting at a desk and writing a letter to those people. They're probably all very proud of this big ass cruise ship that can probably fit all of Asia people.

Anyways, like I said we're currently on a cruise as this was what Naruto was talking about, the vacation. Well like I said it's like times two the size of Titanic – god bless us and hope we won't run into an iceberg and sink.. 'unsinkable' my ass – and it consists of high class restaurants, hotsprings, casinos, swimming pools, salons, movie theatres, bowling and a whole lot of crap. Hell they might as well call this ship 'The Super Super Humongous High-Class Ship'. If I make it out of this alive then I'll add 'unsinkable' along with it.

"Sakura." I heard Sasuke whisper right beside my ear as his head was on my right shoulder and his arms were wrapped around my waist from behind

"Mm?"

"Are you having fun?"

"Of course, aren't you?"

"Only if you are."

"Aren't you a sweetie."

"Only for you."

I giggled lightly at Sasuke's responses. He was just so adorable and best thing is – he's all mine – not that I'm saying that I'm overly obsessed with him that I'm like a fangirl, nope I love him for who he is. I don't even care if he's a vampire or not, I don't care if he can easily kill me, I don't care if he can erase my memories and move on to another person, I don't care. All I care about is him. I love him with all my being and no one will step in between my undying love for him and his for mine.

Not even God or the Devil themselves.


I stretched as I walked through the hallways of the long ass boat, I had just came out of the refreshment room while Sasuke and the others remained at the deck. Though Sasuke had insisted to come along but I merely told him to stay or he's not getting any tonight. At that he immediately obeyed with a sour look on his face.

It was quite amusing, I wish I had my camera right then, would've taken a picture of it and probably hide it somewhere in our bedroom when we get home. I know he hates it when I take pictures of him without me beside. He says it's too 'lonely' and 'empty' without me in the pictures.

I giggled lightly at the memories but I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a scream.

"LET GO OF ME!"

I turned the corner only to see a group of men hovering over a child, one of them was grabbing his arm and tugging him along god knows where.

My eyes narrowed, I hated when assholes like these group of men in front of me try to take advantage of smaller and weaker people then them, "Hey, assholes."

Their heads snapped up and one of them, who I'm guessing is the leader, "What did you just say?! Do you want to die?!"

I rolled my eyes before focusing their attention on the little child then returning my gaze towards their leader, "If you let that kid go, I'll play with you."

At that the men's eyes immediately flashed lustfully as they eyed my body up and down and probably undressing me with their eyes. I sighed as I crossed my arms together, "Well?"

Their leader immediately smirked before waving a hand and immediately the little child was let go of and quiet sobs were heard, "Well then pretty lady, I think it's time you played with us.." The leader wrapped an arm around my shoulder and pulled me closer to his oh so disgustingly chest, "..Dont'cha think so?"

I managed to let a small fake smile out, "Oh of course kind sir.." I trailed off as I glanced at the little kid on the ground, "What are you doing? Get the hell out of here."

The little boy child immediately nodded before scrambling up to his feet and running off to the direction of some unknown place, after all I didn't exactly explored the entire ship yet.

I turned my attention back towards the leader who still had an arm wrapped around my shoulders, a smirk placed itself on my lips as my eyes darkened slightly, "Well, let's play shall we?"


Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me
Shall I give in
Upon my end shall I begin
Forsaking all I've fallen for
I rise to meet the end
