The Morning After
Chapter 7

Detectives Confused by Ripped Apart Body
Sakura sipped on her black coffee as she read the headline before tugging on the next page of her daily news paper to get to her favourite part of the newspaper. The cartoon section. It always amused her to see Kittens in its daily struggle with dogs, dead birds and feathery toys in the little cartoons printed on the news paper. She glanced at her own pet black cat sleeping in its kitchen basket. If Kratos (her pet cat) was only able to read, he would've enjoyed this paper.
Smiling once more at the news paper, Sakura closed the newspaper to read the last page of the newspaper as it usually had celebrity gossip.
She nearly choked on her black coffee when she saw her face in the biggest photo planted on the back next to a really attractive male with raven colored hair styled back. The pinkette herself seemed fairly surprised on the photograph.
Green eyes moved to the caption of the photo neatly placed in an Arial Italic font:
"Who is 's latest victim as she could not even work that Midnight Blue dress as well as our other celebrities did. We hope that Sasuke drops her quick since she has no fashion sense"
Sakura read the caption a couple of times. Literally taking in every word for word as if wanting to burn the words in the back of her sculpt. She knew she wasn't completely perfect. She was not model material, Sakura also knew the fact that Sasuke was the type that hung out with beautiful people. What was the reason that he all of a sudden took some interest in her? She wasn't special or anything. She was just plain old Sakura, like she always was.
Sakura glanced at the photo once again. The man with his beautiful smug looking back at her from the photograph. He seemed okay at this point and time. Sakura's mind trailed of to the more end of the night where the man all of a sudden just decided to leave. With no reason or excuse. He just stood up in left. Was it something she did wrong? She could remember every single detail of the night and playing it over and over in her mind, she could not remember what actually happened that made him so upset.
Deciding that she would never be able to figure out in actual reality what was wrong with the man, she decided to leave things be as they are and to get ready for a single shift at work.
'Great' Inner sighed in defeat
^V^
The pinkest of bubblegum hair hanging on the most perfect frame of shoulders. The most sparkling of green eyes supported by the long velvety lashes. The most softest and purest lips. Made Sasuke's inner animal roar from the inside of him.
Sasuke looked at the picture in the daily newspaper as he could not believe how beautiful the girl he likes was so photogenic. Black orbs glanced over the caption, he read it with slight caution but felt infuriated as he read the caption word for word. How could the fucked up tabloids not see what he sees. She was beautiful. She could be completely naked and it would be art.
A wolf whistle brought Sasuke out of the newspaper "Who is she? She is a babe!" a deep male voice spoke from behind Sasuke. Sasuke did not need psychic powers to know it is his cousin.
"Nobody" Sasuke said dropping the newspaper on the dining table where he himself sat down to have his first breakfast of the day.
"Doesn't look like a nobody to me" Shisui said massaging Sasuke's shoulders as he looked at the newspaper. The pinkette girl smiling back at them from the photo.
Itachi, whom was sitting on the far other side at the end of the dining table as he glanced over his own book that he was reading. While sipping on a cup of tea. Not saying a word he pasted his eyes back to the book.
Sasuke did not answer as he took a sip of his water. He darted with his free hand to turn the newspaper upside down to avoid all eyes but Shisui had the better luck at grabbing the newspaper. He read the caption out loud
"Who is 's latest victim as she could not even work that Midnight Blue dress as well as our other celebrities did. We hope that Sasuke drops her quick since she has no fashion sense"
The words made Sasuke look up and for almost a moment Shishui could swear that he saw a brief of an emotion in Sasuke's face but what ever was there would be gone.
"If she is nobody then, would you mind if I have go at her" Shishui asked sitting in the opposite chair of Sasuke, now facing him. "I loved the perfect redhead you just so perfectly handed down to me last wee..."
"NO" Sasuke burst out slamming his fists on the dining table, causing it to treble at the force. Some of the crockery shivering at the force.
Shisui appeared to have a fright but quickly contained himself as he was not going to show weakness to his cousin. Itachi, with dark eyes also glanced to his brother's sudden outburst but went on reading. He was not going to meddle with the other two Uchiha's.
"Jeeeeeezzzz... Its just a girl, you could have just said that you wanted her for all yourself" Shisui said lifting his hands in defense. "What is so special about her anyway's?"
Sasuke thought about the night that they kissed first. It was the soft kiss of her soft lips that made his mind nearly go insane. It was like she was his life partner. He wanted her. He wanted her so badly. It would not matter the cause. He could work the rest of his live, his fingers to the bone if it could mean to see her smile for the rest of his live. She was contagious and like his drug.
"Earth to Sasuke! Earth to Sasuke" Shisui snapped his fingers playfully in Sasuke's vision.
Sasuke kept silent as he did not want to answer his annoying cousin the reason why this bubblegum pink haired girl drove Sasuke insane.
"If you don't watch it, little nephew. I might just grab her for myself. She is too pretty to be left alone. Despite what the fucked up newspaper says" Shisui said tossing the newspaper aside.
Sasuke's eyes turned into that color of a red and black. He sprung from his seat and tackled his nephew to the ground. Sasuke breathed hard with a soft rumble of some sort erupting from his chest. Sasuke's lips curled back showing his teeth in a furious growl.
"You better leave her alone!" Sasuke said lifting his fist. Ready to pound it into Shisui's face.
Shisui raised an amusing eyebrow as he laid flat on the floor with a furious Sasuke on top of him "Now I am really interested" a smile prickling at the corners of his lips
Sasuke was about to launch his fist into Shisui's face before someone else grabbed his elbow, restricting Sasuke from any movement.
"That's enough Sasuke. Leave him alone" Itachi's smooth and cool voice spoke as if it could stop wars dead in its tracks
Red eyes glared at his cousin as he grew a smile of tease to his cousin "Yeah, that's enough little Sasuke, go play with your toys" Shisui said smiling sadistically.
Sasuke glared at his cousin for a few seconds. If looks could kill, Shisui's blood would've been spread all over the expensive tiled floor.
A silence grew between the three before Sasuke jumped of off Shisui and walked away without saying a word.

"Why did you not tell me that you were in the newspaper, you silly forehead!" Ino demanded bursting into Sakura's office with a newspaper in her free hand, nearly breaking the door down followed by an out of breath Moegie
"Pig. I am with a patient!" Sakura screamed raising an angry eyebrow.
"I tried telling her, Mrs. Haruno but she could not take no for an answer. She did not want to calm down and just wait with all the other patients" Moegie apologized
"Its fine, Moegie. She sometimes can't take no for an answer. Does not matter how different the situation" Sakura said folding her arms over her breasts with an angered expression towards Ino.
Sakura sat down again and handed her patients their prescription notes. Lucky for Ino, Sakura was just about to finish with this patients. The patients took their notes and left, still with a weird eye fixed on the strange blonde that could not keep her emotions in tack.
"So tell me why have you not told me that you are in this trashy newspaper."She tossed the newspaper on the desk between all of Sakura's other things "You are basically like a local celebrity and we didn't even know it" Ino said, she placed her fists on her hips and started tapping her high heel on the floor.
"I am sorry" Sakura said apologetically sitting down. She wanted to tell her friend that her face was planted on all newspapers that there is but she thought that it was irrelevant to the point that she will not see the handsome sidekick that she had again. Her heart dropped at the thought.
"Sorry is simply just not going to cut it, but its okay. I just need all the details" Ino's expression softened "Every single little one" she said as she sat in the opposite chair facing her.
"Well..." Sakura's mind trailed off thinking, it was then that she suddenly remembered something. She searched her small handbag through un till she pulled out a small vile with silver liquid.
"Wow. What is that?" Ino asked, eyes as wide as saucers and amusement.
"When I arrived home last night. This was on my front door step with a note that said sorry." Sakura handed Ino the necklace "I still can't figure out what it is. Its not like something I have ever seen before"
Ino observed it between her fingers, twisting it upside down to see the little air bubbles move back to the other side. In which ever way face up. The room between the two girls drew quiet. It was so whenever someone was there to observe the jewel that their breath was literally taken away. Ino's face also drawn into confusion and more amazement as she also did not know the content of the silver liquid but was clearly intrigued to know what it was. Ino dangled the chain of the necklace between her slender fingers as she neatly placed it back in the palm of the pinkette.
"I think he gave me this" Sakura said looking at the silver vile.
"It is certainly beautiful, forehead. I have never seen something like that" Ino's eyes observed the vile in Sakura's hand as she said this. Before Sakura placed it back in her handbag. "Did you receive anything with it?"
"Just a note saying 'Sorry'. But I don't have it here. Only the vile with the necklace. Its so strange" Sakura said deep in thought.
"Yeah forehead. So anyway's. We are going out tonight and we want you to come along with us" Ino said forgetting about the topic of discussion before and starting something new.
After contemplating far and hard on it, Sakura decided it would maybe be better to go out for the night and not sit at home, eating ice-cream. And sulking about what could've been "Okay. Sure. Why not." Sakura said with a smile at her best friend.
That deserved a screech of the highest. One that could shatter windows. It seems like tonight was going to be another long night with Ino and her bunch.
'Sleep is for the dead' Inner fist pounded in the air as she liked partying
