"Uh Sakura we should go and stop Sasuke now" he told her and Sakura mumbled a sorry. Then the hopped out of the car and ran to the airport.

'Please let us make it' Sakura thought 'Don't do Sasuke-kun…..I love you'

Chapter 11- Reality of Life

Sakura and Sai ran and ran. Sakura never ran this fast in her life but she didn't care. Her legs were already hurting but she didn't mind the pain. She rather feel it then stand the great pain of losing Sasuke.

Her speed got faster and she squeezed through crowds of people, ignoring their rude remarks. Cold air was blowing at her face as she ran. Tears were slowly rolling down her cheeks. The only sentence replaying in her mind was "Please let us make it"

She drastically searched as she ran, hoping to catch a glimpse of Sasuke. She kept on running when she found herself slowing down. Her knees were getting weaker and weaker, like she would collapse any minute. She couldn't believe what she was seeing.

The airplane was going down the runway, about to take off any minute. Then, it lifted from the ground and took off to the skies while she just helplessly stared at it until her tears welding up in her eyes blurred her vision. She started panting heavily and collapsed into Sai's arms. Luckily he was there to catch her and he kept on calling her name as she felt her eyelids closing.

She was too late…..He's gone…

"Sasuke-kun…..goodbye…" she thought to herself then everything turned black.

She jerked up from her bed, her face soaked in sweat. She panted heavily and tried to calm herself and refrain from crying.

She kept on having that dream again and again. That horrible moment repeating in her dreams and bothering her now and then. She just couldn't accept that she was too late to stop him.

Tears started streaming down her face. Why did he have to go? Why wasn't she too fast to stop her? Why can she forget him? Her friends would eventually visit her to try to cheer her up. They even suggested moving to their dorms so she could be more comfortable and maybe it would help Sakura to forget Sasuke if she moved out of the dorm they shared. But Sakura refused to.

She stood up from the bed and started at her mirror. Her eyes were puffy and red and her hair was a mess. She could see Sasuke's empty bed from the reflection and couldn't stop herself from crying again.

She buried her face in her pillow and sobbed. Then she heard someone knock on her door. She didn't answer and the person went in.

"Sakura-chan?" a voice said. She recognized it as Naruto's voice. She heard the door closing gently.

Naruto was the most worried about her situation. He was always like that with his friends. It would bother him especially if the person was his close friend. And Sakura was one of them.

He was trying to cheer her up but none of his techniques were working. Somehow it was affecting him too. His goofy self lessened and he became quite gloomy. If only he could get Sasuke back for her.

He sat beside Sakura and placed his hand on her back, trying to comfort her like always. He lifted her so she could face him.

"Please stop crying Sakura-chan" he pleaded "This won't do good for you" he brushed her hair from her face and Sakura calmed down a little.

"Thanks Naruto" she whispered. Then they heard a knock on the door.

"Come in" Naruto answered for her.

Sai's head popped in and smiled a little. " Sorry if I'm disturbing anything" he entered and closed the door gently. He approached the 2 on the bed and sat next to Sakura's other side.

"How are you feeling Sakura-chan?" he asked.

"Wishing to be better" she sighed. "So what are you doing here?" She asked him. She tried being a little cheery for her friends but it had little affect on her.

"Well I just came to tell you about the Farewell Party of the school" he answered.

"Oh yeah. It's a few days from now" Naruto said

"And we were planning on asking you Sakura to sing" Sai told her.

"Um…I'm not really in the mood…" she smiled shyly.

"Come on Sakura. It probably help you somehow with your recovery" Naruto encouraged. Sakura thought about it a little. It will probably take her mind off that horrible moment and it does sound fun and she can't possibly disappoint her friends.

"Ok sure" she smiled "Sounds like fun"

"cool" Sai smiled back

"Yeah. Fun is what you need" Naruto told her.

"But what song will I sing?" Sakura asked. Sai thought of a song as well as Naruto.

"I got it!" Naruto exclaimed "How about 'Bestfriends' by Toybox? Or Barbie girl by Aqua?"

"Um..I don't think so Naruto…" Sakura smiled

"If you were to sing a song dedicated to Sasuke, what will it be?" Sai asked. Sakura's smile faded when she heard Sasuke's name again. Sai realized her saddened expression.

"Oh I'm sorry" He apologized.

"No it's ok" Sakura told him and she thought of a song "Probably Pretty boy by M2M"

Sai clasped his hands together. "Great Pretty Boy it is then" he smiled and stood up from her bed.

"Wanna go for a walk for a while?" Sai offered. Sakura nodded and took his hand

" And you can see the preparations being made as well" he added and they headed for the door.

"Hey wait for me!" Naruto catched up and closed the door behind them.

It was quite hot outside since summer was coming. Good thing Sakura was wearing shorts. She walked with Sai and Naruto around the campus and checked out the preparations being made. A banner was placed by the stage and the words 'Farewell Party' were written on it. Sakura saw the girls helping out in setting the decorations.

"Good afternoon girls" Sai greeted.

"Oh hi Sai" Ino answered then spied Sakura. "Sakura!!!" she exclaimed and gave her a hug. "How are you feeling?"

"A little better" Sakura smiled a little.

"I'm so sorry" Ino embraced her again.

"Don't worry Ino it's not your fault" Sakura told her

"Well we should have done something to stop him" Ino said

"Yeah we should have lassoed the airplane!" Naruto exclaimed

"But you can't lasso the plane Naruto-kun" Hinata told him

"Yes you can!!! If you can lasso the moon, you can lasso an airplane as well" Naruto told her

"When did you see someone lasso a moon?" Tenten asked

"In cartoons" Naruto answered then he was hit on the head by Tenten

"That isn't real you dobe" Tenten told him. The others laughed and Sakura giggled a little. But her smiled faded when she remembered Sasuke again. He was the one who started calling Naruto a dobe. Even little things like that affect her.

"You ok Sakura-chan?" Sai asked and Sakura nodded.

"So are you gonna perform in the party Sakura-chan?" Tenten asked

"Yeah she's gonna sing!" Naruto answered for her

"What song?" Hinata asked

"Pretty Boy by M2M" Sakura replied. Ino squealed

"I love that song!!!" she exclaimed. Then Tsunade came to check what they were doing and told them to continue. Then she approached Sakura.

"You doing fine Sakura?" she asked and Sakura nodded

"Sigh. I understand your situation." she told her "I've been through that" she smiled

"I just feel so lonely without him" Sakura started "I tried to stop him…" her eyes were welding up with tears and Tsunade embraced her. "I was too late" she mumbled.

"Oh Sakura" Tsunade started "I know it's hard but you got to move on"

"That's what they say if you broke up with a person. If it was his choice but leaving wasn't his choice nor mine. We were forced!" Sakura told her. "What do you do if you love each other very much but have to separate?"

Tsunade thought about it. She did have a point. She sighed

"If I were you, I'll keep in touch with him no matter what" Tsunade told her "What were his last words to you?" she asked. Sakura thought about it and tears streamed down her face as she remembered it.

"Promise me that you won't forget everything that happened between us, that you'll never forget me" he whispered

"Do you think he meant that?" Tsunade asked after she told her.

"Of course!" Sakura exclaimed

"Then don't forget him no matter what. I'm sure you still love him with all your heart" Sakura nodded

"And I'm sure he still loves you too" Tsunade assured her "That Uchiha is really true to his words" Sakura smiled

"Thank you Tsunade-sama " she hugged her.

"Your welcome Sakura" she replied. When she left, Sai approached her

"Wanna help?" he asked

"Sure" Sakura answered. As they walked to the others, Sakura remembered something.

"Sai? Do you know a way I can communicate to Sasuke? I can't call him on his cell or on the phone and he's never online" she asked

"Oh well It's just that he's busy with his stuff there and doesn't have time, sorry Sakura" he said when he saw Sakura's face sadden "But I'll find a way somehow I promise" he told her

"Thanks Sai-kun" she smiled and she started helping them with the decors.

Sakura observed the others as they worked. Ino was being helped by Shikamaru, who recently arrived with Neji, in putting up the streamers and Ino blushing when Shikamaru smirked at her when he handed her the streamers. Tenten and Neji were busy with the lighting. Tenten was busy fixing some bulbs while Neji observed her. Then she yelped when her hand got burned by the heat of the bulb. Neji took her burned hand and kissed it to make it better. Tenten blushed. Lastly, there was Naruto and Hinata. Naruto was up the ladder and was hanging the banner while Hinata held the ladder for him. Then Naruto lost his balance and fell to the ground. Thankfully I wasn't that high and the banner fell on him and they both laughed.

"They make such a cute couple" Sakura thought. She was busy helping Sai filling up the balloons. She observed him as he worked and sighed. He really looks like Sasuke.

'My friends already have their happily ever afters' She thought 'I thought I had it once but I guess he wasn't the one….' she held back her tears and went back to observing Sai.

Meanwhile, Sai couldn't help but smile to himself as he thought of his surprise for Sakura.

'She's gonna love it I'm very sure!' he thought.

It was the night of the farewell party. Most of the guys, since it's a boy's school, were there. They also allowed visitors with includes the girls from the girl's school but if they get annoying or disrupt anything, they can be kicked out of the party. Sakura decided to mingle with her other schoolmates and friends. One even gave her a rose.

Since they knew Sasuke was gone, the other guys were sad for her but happy as well. Sakura started to receive a lot of gifts from suitors until it already bugged her. But she loved the chocolates they gave her though.

"Ok attention people" They heard Tsunade's voice on the microphone. "We will start our Farewell Party today and I hope you all enjoy it" There was an applause from the audience "We have prepared a program for you so I hope you enjoy it as well. Have a fun evening" she said then the MC took the mic.

"Ok for our 1st performance, we have Naruto Uzumaki, Neji Hyugga and Shikamaru Nara!!!"

Sakura sat next to her friends and was excited as well to see the boys' performance, especially the girls.

Bounce- Timbaland

(The crowd, especially the girls, were cheering loudly. Their formation was like a triangle. Naruto was at the front and at his back at the right was shikamaru and on the left was Neji. They wore pants, cool black shirts and caps.)

Menage a trois, menage a tr-uh-uh)

(Suddenly their music stopped and the boys wondered why then another song started playing. Hinata, Ino and Tenten came out and had the same position as the boys They wore pants, bright colored shirts and caps as well. Hinata was at the front, at the right was Ino and left was Tenten. Looks like a competition is starting to form.

Womanizer- Britney Spears

(You) You say I'm crazy
(You) I got you crazy

The song stopped and the boys and girls formed one group. Then they danced with the song Low by Flo Rida (It's too long so I didn't put it) When they were finished, they were given a loud applause. The MC went up the stage.

"I'll be back" Sai told Sakura and ran to the MC.

"Ok our next performance will be-" she was caught of by Sai who whispered something in her ear. Then her expression became an excited one when he finished.

"Ok may I call on Sakura Haruno to come up the stage?" Sakura was surprised but Sai accompanied her. The Naruto and the others had no idea what was going on.

"We have a special guest today performing today" the MC started "I don't know who it is cause Sai said it's a surprise. Well anyway let's start" The audience applauded and Sakura stood their confused. Then the music started.

Beautiful Soul- Jesse Mcartney

I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul

( A boy emerged from the curtains. He wore a shirt and pants as well and a cap which covered his face so Sakura couldn't recognize him. But she did realize that his hair was black)

I know that you are something special
To you I'd be always faithful
I want to be what you always needed
Then I hope you'll see the heart in me

I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul
You're the one I wanna chase
You're the one I wanna hold
I wont let another minute go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul

Yeah

You might need time to think it over
But I'm just fine moving forward
I'll ease your mind
If you give me the chance
I will never make you cry c'mon let's try

Am I crazy for wanting you?
Maybe do you think you could want me too?
I don't wanna waste your time
Do you see things the way I do?
I just wanna know that you feel it too
There is nothing left to hide

(There was murmuring from the audience. Who could this mystery person be?)

I want you and your soul
I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul
Ooooooo
Beautiful Soul, yeah
Oooooo, yeah
Your beautiful soul
Yeah

The audience clapped a little but they were still confused on who the guy is.

"W..who are you?" Sakura asked and she slowly reached for his cap that covered his face. Revealing…..
