Chapter 7

It was December 25th; Christmas day. I had saved my adopted daughter Lilly on Christmas Eve just the other day. I had lost my Husband Sasuke Uchiha on this day. I had thought for 2 and half years that I could do nothing without him. That he was my only reason to live. But today I know I live because it's my life and because Lilly needs me. I know I will always love Sasuke and no one else. I wish he could be here on this day.

I was cooking dinner with Hinata. Lilly and Blake, Hinata's and Naruto's son was egger to open up presents. Lilly was hugging my leg and whining but I shooed her off. No one was opening up presents until after dinner. Blake stomped his little feet pouting. His big blue eyes watery and his raven bangs sticking out everywhere.

"Please Sakura-chan!" He hugged my leg.

"Blake you know you're not allowed to open presents until after dinner." I say.

"Come on, just one." He gives me puppy dog eyes.

"Blake sweetheart no." Hinata rubs his head.

"Fine mommy." He walked back to Lilly disappointed.

I couldn't help but giggle as I set the food out for everyone. There was so much but then again I had invited a lot of people over. I had finally decided to move into the large house Sasuke had bought for us before he died. I knew Lilly deserved the best. Ino, Tenten, Neji, Naruto, Hinata, Tsunade, Kakashi, Garra, and many more had joined us for Christmas. We all sat down and said grace holding hands. Then of course Naruto and Blake were the first ones to dig in. Hinata and I couldn't help but laugh at this.

There was absolutely nothing left when we were all done eating. Lilly rubbed her tummy and she and Blake made a couple of jokes about their eating habits. I smiled and clapped my hands together.

"Alright everyone present time!" I sing.

Everyone jumped up at the word present and rushed into the large living room; extremely excited. We had one huge tree decorated with Christmas lights and many ordainments on it. We had an angel at the top of the tree that everyone admired. I began passing out presents to everyone. We went from youngest to oldest all around the room. Lilly was extremely happy when she saw the locket that said forever loved on it. She opened the silver heart to find a picture of Sasuke and I in it. She smiled brightly at me and gave me a huge hug.

"Thank you mommy!" She giggled.

"You're welcome sweetie." I put it around her neck.

We all were having a fantastic time but a knock came on the door. I walked and opened up the two large wooden doors with golden curved handles. I peeked out to find that same old man from Christmas Eve. I narrow my eyes at him but he just smiled and turned.

"Come with me Mrs. Uchiha." He began to walk off.

I followed holding Lilly; the others joining me. No one had called me Mrs. Uchiha since Sasuke-kun died. But I didn't mind. I kind of missed people calling me that because it let people know who I belonged too. Lilly and I watched the strange old man as he stopped at a dead cherry blossom tree.

"This is what you wanted to show me? A dead cherry blossom tree." I asked kind of annoyed.

The man turned and gave me a smile and the tree was suddenly in bloom. I stared at him in shock. There was no way that he was human, no way in hell that he was human. I mean things like that just do not happen. I wondered if God was going to play some cruel fate on me again. But the man turned into the most beautiful creatur ever to be seen. An angel sent from heaven above.

"Sakura Rose Uchiha you have done a great deed in life. One that many do not ever think about. So there for you will receive a present from the lord." The angel spoke.

When I blinked the angel had gone and I turned to the still blooming cherry blossom tree like the others. There, lying under the tree was a man. He had raven hair that spiked in the back, his skin pale, his body firmly built. His face was at peace in his sleep because he knew he was at home. My eyes waters and I ran in the snow kneeling down next to him. Lilly was on his other side. Everyone else was just in pure shock and amazement. I gently shook him and he opened oxyn orbs.

"Sasuke-kun…" I breathed.

"Sakura-chan…" He whispered.

"Are you real…this time?" I asked.

"I think so…" He said softly.

Tears streamed down my face hitting his cheek and he reaches his hand up whipping them away. His other arm was holding Lilly whom was buried in his side; crying.

"I've missed you so much!" I cry.

"I've missed you too." He smiled.

We both leaned in and shared our first kiss in 2 and half years. It was so magical I couldn't believe it. We headed back to the house and that year I was full of life and excitement. I finally got what I wanted for Christmas. I couldn't imagine anything better then this right here. Lilly finally persuaded Sasuke and I to sing.

It's Christmas time
There's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time
We let in light and we banish shade

And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world
At Christmas time

But say a prayer
Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it's hard
But when you're having fun

There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing
Is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well, tonight thank God it's them
Instead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
(Ooh)
Where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Here's to you raise a glass for everyone
Here's to them underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Feed the world, feed the world, feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again!

And so it was said when you do some great act in life, you get something in return. God always rewards those who show compassion and great kindness. For Sakura he rewarded her with the one thing she had wanted for Christmas; Sasuke Uchiha. Maybe if you do something for someone else this December, he'll reward you too. Even for those who do not believe in God. He still loves and cherishes you. It doesn't have to be anything big, it could be small. The meaning of this story was not just something for you to read, but to show you what really matters in life. If you haven't figured out what matters in life, I guess I could tell you. It is love never forget that and have a Merry Christmas everyone.

The End
