"Speaking"
Thoughts
Tsunade's POV:
.
.
.
So here I am, slowly dragging my way up these stupid stairs, to my stupid apartment with stupid Kashi behind me. I was slowing staring to sober up, but it was not quick enough, because I tripped up the stairs.
"Oh shit" I said. Closing my eyes to prepare myself for a painful fall, but it never came. I opened my eyes and felt myself standing upright with Kashi's arms around my waist.
"Thanks" I mumbled. Hey I wasn't a complete bitch when I was drunk and he did save me from an excruciating fall.
"Ah she finally speaks." He said against my ears. Ok, so during the car ride I was determined to not talk to him. The closeness between us would have definitely added to my already red cheeks. I couldn't let him know how much he affected me and I needed to get out of his arms.
"You can let me go now." I slurred
" Hmm. I don't think so"
"WHAT!" I shrieked.
"We wouldn't want you to fall again." He said nonchalantly while keeping his arms in place. I think he was actually enjoying getting a rise out of me.
"You stubborn ass. Let Me Go!" I demanded
"No. As a matter of fact I think I'll carry you up the stairs. The sooner we get there the sooner we can get inside and talk.
"No Kakashi don't d-' I didn't move fast enough and Kashi managed to carry me, bridal style, up the rest of the stairs and into our apartment.
As we got inside, he closed, locked the door and proceeded to set me down on the couch. He didn't know it but I was going to be stubborn as hell during this talk. I was not going to make this easy for him.
I heard him picking up the phone to call someone.
"Hello Sakura-chan" Oh so he's talking to my traitor. I though to myself as I continued to listen
"Can you do me a favor and ask Kure if you can stay there for tonight. Me and Nade need to talk."
What don't do it Saku. I hope that I could send some psychic connection to her to make her decline.
"Ok. Thanks Sakura-chan. See you tomorrow."
Dammit to hell. It was becoming painfully clear that this would be a long night and that I wouldn't be able to avoid this talk.
After he hung up the phone, he came and sat directly next to me. The minute he sat down, I completely turned my body away from him.
"Nade, could you please look at me so that we can talk."
"No"
"Nade"
"No, you can talk to my back. I'd rather not look at you'
"But I want to look at you Nade. We have to talk about this." I could hear a little bit of frustration in his voice but I chose to ignore it.
"Well then talk to my back"
"Dammit woman, would you just look at me and let me talk to you!"
That bastard! Now he wants to talk. I could feel my anger rising until I finally exploded.
"YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE! YOU GOT SOME NERVE!"
"Nade-"
"TWO WEEKS AGO, YOU IGNORED ME"
"Bu-"
"THEN LAST WEEK, WHEN I TRIED TO TALK TO YOU, YOU BLEW A FUCKING GASKET"
"There's a reason for-"
"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR FUCKING REASON! I TRIED TO TALK TO YOU. NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU WANT TO TALK TO ME AN-"
I could feel a warm pair of lips cutting me off in the middle of my sentence. This kiss was way better than our first. I felt my anger disappearing and being replaced with a drunken lust. I closed my eyes and let my lust overtake the rest of my senses.
Finally, we broke apart to get some air. When I opened my eyes I wanted to pass out. Standing before me was Kashi without his mask on. No wonder he wore a mask. I thought to myself. If any women were to see, what I was currently seeing, they would fall in love with him. He would have a militia of fan girls ready to mobilized at his command.
He had a strong jaw line. Two deliciously plump lips and he was currently smirking at me showing off his dimple in each cheek. He had the most gorgeous pair of straight white teeth. And his mismatched eyes just added to his overall hotness. He had one black eye and one red eye. Over his red eye there was a scar that he received from a vengeful person who though he was his father. Luckily he was able to get a transplant and was able to see through it. Even though he had his scar, it was like another factor to his sexiness. I felt myself beginning to drool.
"Like what you see Nade"
I just nodded. I was to dumbfound to speak. Even his voice sounded hotter without the mask. I was pretty sure that my panties were getting damp.
"Now if you would let me explain. The reason I've been acting strange is beca-"
This time I was the one to shut him up with a kiss. I closed my eyes again and let my drunken lust overtake me. If I would spend the rest of my life doing one thing, it would definitely be kissing Kashi. Kashi took this moment to run his tongue over my lips almost as if he was asking for permission to enter my mouth. I gladly parted my lips and allowed our tongues to initiate a slow sensuous dance. I moved my hands to wrap around his neck as he wrapped an arm around my waist.
Suddenly, I felt myself being pushed back to start walking to an unknown destination. I could care less where it was. My mind was already clouded with drunkenness and desire. It wasn't until I landed on a soft mattress that I decided to open my eyes and take a look at my surrounding. I noticed that I was in Kashi's room and on his bed. I would have continued in my perusal but I was distracted at the sight of him taking off his shirt. His body still looks the same from the day I walked in on him in the shower but minus the water.
I licked my lips at this magnificent sight in front of me. He crawled on top of me and we continued our make out session. I could feel his hands pulling my shirt upwards until he pulled it over my head and threw it behind him. Then he lifted my back up to undo my bra and threw it as well. He took a long moment just staring at my chest and it made me feel a little embarrassed because my breast were so huge and maybe he would be turned off by them.
"You're so beautiful Nade. I want you so damn much." He whispered seductively.
It made me feel better that he wanted me. I looked into his eyes and saw raw passion in them. He leaned closer to my ear and his mouth devoured my neck. The dampness in my panties was increasing tenfold from the kisses on my neck and the solid feel of his bare chest pressing against my bare breast. His tongue began to trace a path from my neck to chest. He drew one hard budding nipple into his mouth and started to feast, lick and suck.
I trembled again and made purring sounds from my throat at the immense pleasure I was receiving. Once he finished with one he moved to the other to give it the same treatment. His hands ran over my stomach and lowered to my shorts. I don't remember how it happened but then next thing I knew was that I was completely naked. His hands moved to caress my thighs and he recaptured my mouth with his. He began grinding against me with his sweats still on and I could feel his hard erection against my wet core. He stopped and I looked at him as if he lost his mind.
"Why did you mmmm" I moaned at the sensation of his hand touching my moist heat. The way he was working his fingers felt so dam good. That was until he entered one finger inside of me. I didn't want him to know that it hurt a bit and that I was a little uncomfortable, but that was soon replaced. The thrusting of his fingers in and out of me felt so fucking amazing. I couldn't explain what I was feeling but I knew I had to reach that high I heard my friends talking about. Then, I felt his tongue working over my clit. If I were to die from immeasurable pleasure, then this would be my end. I let go of everything I was holding back and gained the most powerful satisfaction if my life. I was lightheaded, dizzy and dazed from this. I looked up at Kashi and saw him licking his lips.
"You taste so good Nade. And you were so damn tight. It was amazing."
I blushed at his words and looked down to notice that his pants were still on. I decided it was now my turn to return the favor for him. I used the strength in my legs to flip us over. Now Kashi was on his back and I straddled his legs. This position made me feel powerful and seductive. I quickly discarded his sweat and was mesmerized at what I saw. He was huge and in the back of my mind I knew that this would be painful and pleasurable at the same time. I took his member in my hand and began stroking it. I loved the little moans and gasps he was making. I decided to be a little bold and I lick the tip of his member. He gasped louder and I continued to lick all from the base to the tip again. I was about to pull him into my mouth when I felt myself being tossed on my back again.
"Enough Nade. I need to be inside of you before I lose control. You can continue this another time." With that said he kissed me long and hard. I felt him placing his body over me again. He lifted my hips into his hands and broke our kiss. He looked at me and pushed himself inside of me with one deep hard thrust. I gasped in pain and stiffened as the pain surged through my body. I felt him stilling himself in total disbelief.
"Nade, why didn't you tell me?" He asked worriedly
"I didn't want you to pity me and I didn't want you to stop."
"I would never pity you Nade. You are too special to me." A part of me wanted to cry at these sweet words, but I wanted more. I wanted him to say he loved me.
"We can stop, if you want" he said
"No don't stop." I said desperate for him to continue.
He nodded his head and recaptured my mouth. I clutched his shoulder and wrapped my legs around him to lock him in place. He slowly began to move in and out of me. It was painful at first, but as he continued I felt pleasure replacing the pain. The thought on my mind was the strength of him driving back and forth in me. He was sending me over the edge. I knew that this would be a moment that I would remember for a long time.
He continued to thrust into me and after a while his thrust became faster, harder and deeper. The feeling I felt earlier was returning. I was getting closer and closer to my peak when I felt him hit a spot deep inside my womb.
"Oh shit!" I moaned loud "Don't stop Kashi I'm so close."
He leaned close to my ear and was panting hard on my neck.
"Me too Nade. Come for me my Nade."
I don't know if it was his words or his pants on my neck, but I did exactly what he asked for and once again I reached my peak and satisfaction overtook my body. Kashi thrusted two more times and emptied himself inside of me. Once he was done he collapsed on top of me.
A few moments passed and he rolled behind me. He pulled me in his arms and kissed my forehead sweetly. I snuggled into his chest and let sleep infiltrate me.
I could hear him whispering in my ear. It sounded like he said he loved me, but that couldn't be it. My mind was so fuzzy from the alcohol and sex that it could have been a figment of my imagination. Oh well. I'll worry about it tomorrow. I thought to myself and I drifted off to sleep.
Sakura's POV:
.
.
.
When I woke up to see a male face next to me, I panicked. My brain began furiously to process what happened during the previous night. I remembered Kakashi carrying a very angry Tsu-chan out of the bar, then I sent an email to Ino telling her I was engaged. I remember talking a lot to Anko and she convincing me to drink some tequila shots. Then came a call from Kakashi asking if I could spend the night somewhere. I couldn't remember! Then I noticed the man next to me was half naked.
"Gaaaaaah!" I screamed and tried to scramble out of the couch. Which ended up in both me and the man falling out of it. Me on the back and he on the front. A door opened hastily and Anko came only wearing panties and a bra.
"Sakura-chan what happened?" She kneed in front of me.
"Anko-chi! There's a man! A man on the couch!"
Anko looked over the couch. A small smile began to spread on her face. Did she know this person?
"IRUKA!" She yelled. I peeked over the couch to see the young man bolt up and begin apologizing.
"I am so sorry! I am so sorry! I am so sorry!" He had a cute face with a four pointed scar on his nose and he looked very... innocent.
"Why did you scare Sakura-chan?" Anko got up pulling me with her. He stared at me as if he was seeing me the first time.
"You're Sakura-chan? I'm Umino Iruka! Nice to meet you, Sakura-chan. I kinda got drunk and I came to Anko's house and I just crashed on the couch. I didn't even see there was someone else..." He was cut by the ring tone of my cellphone. I recognized that one. It was Ino's. I jumped over the couch and ran towards it. I pressed the receive button and before I could put the phone on my ear, Ino began screeching so loud that the whole room could hear her.
"BILLBOARD BROW! WE ARE HERE, IN KONOHA. WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU, BITCH! YOU CAN'T GO OFF AND GET MARRIED TO SOME BASTARD WE DON'T KNOW! AND YOU CAN'T NOT INVITE ME TO BE BRIDESMAID! HELLO! WITH YOUR HORRIBLE FASHION SENSE YOU'D PICK SOME HIDEOUS DRESS THAT..."
"Give me the phone, yeah!"
"SHUT UP, DEIDARA! I'M TALKING TO FOREHEAD GIRL!"
"Precisely."
"Give me back my phone!"
"Troublesome."
"Ah! A-Ano... M-Maybe w-we should call her later..."
"No way, Hinata-chan! I'm having loads of fun-ttebayo!"
We heard a slight fight including lots of un and yeahs, some dattebayo, several troublesomes, many Hns, and few stuttered words.
"Wow. Your friends are a lively bunch, huh."
"Yeah..."
"Sakura." apparently the winner was Itachi for it was his voice that came from the receiver.
"I-Itachi-s-san!" I stuttered as bad as Hinata.
"I hope you are having a pleasant morning. We would like to have lunch with you and your fiancé."
I paled. Then fainted. I vaguely heard Anko yelling something and something warm caught me.
When I came to, I was back in Tsu-chan's house. She was very happy, Kakashi was very grumpy, Anko was worried, Dan was smirking and Iruka-san seemed out of place.
"Sakura! Thank God! I was afraid you'd miss the lunch with your friends!" Tsunade said. That reminded me of my current problem.
"But... I don't have a fiancé to show them! I never truly expected them to come!" I began crying.
"I'll be your fiancé, Sakura-chan!" Dan grinned. I shook my head. Deidara and Sasori already knew about Dan.
"I'd offer, but Nade would be jealous..." Kakashi grinned. Tsunade glared at him. Then I remembered something that Kurenai had told me last night. I smiled.
"Anko-chi! Marry me!" I smiled at her. Anko grinned back at me.
"Aww, Sakura-chan. I thought you'd never ask!"
"Anko! Stop tainting my Saku!" Anko's hands snaked around my waist and she licked my neck. I blushed. Iruka and Kakashi had nosebleeds. Tsunade ripped Anko off of me and began to yell at her. I giggled and slipped towards my room to get ready for the dreadful lunch date.
Anko said she told them to meet us at Ichiraku Ramen. It was the best ramen shop in Konoha. I'm sure Naruto loved the idea. Tsu-chan and Kakashi had agreed in coming with us. Before we entered the restaurant, I could hear Naruto's loud voice.
"OSSAN! Gimme another Miso ramen!"
I smiled. Anko grabbed my hand and held it tightly. We entered the ramen shop. They had rented a large booth. Hinata was the first one to see us and she exclaimed.
"Sakura-chan!"
Everyone turned to face me and a long silence stretched out. Naruto had even stopped slurping down his ramen.
"Ah... Sakura... Your fiancé looks like a girl, yeah." Deidara was the first one to speak.
"It's because Anko-chi is a girl." I smiled. Anko, Tsunade, Kakashi and I sat on the booth next to Deidara and Sasori. Itachi, Ino, Shikamaru, Hinata and Naruto were sitting on the other side.
"Sakura-chan turned gay!" Naruto exclaimed.
"I'm not gay, idiot! I'm bisexual!" I growled. Sasori looked at Anko and frowned.
"Who are you." he stated. Anko grinned.
"My name is Mitarashi Anko! You feeble mortals can call me Anko-sama! I'm 23 and I'm going to be a awesome KFBI agent specialized in information gathering by non-legal means!" She laughed evilly. That obviously shocked Hinata. Naruto chocked on his ramen. Deidara was sweating, Sasori was glaring, Ino had her mouth hanging, Shikamaru muttered troublesome and Itachi Hn-ed.
"I don't agree." Itachi said.
"Excuse me?" I glared at him.
"You obviously do not love this woman. You are merely using her as a means of escape for your foolishness with my foolish little brother. If you wanted some attention, you could have just called Ino and go shopping. There was no need for you to make this outrageous and obviously fake announcement just to drag us from Suna to here. This is a waste of my time."
I rose. I didn't want to cry. I really didn't. But I just couldn't hold it in. If I was a waste of his time why did he bother to come? I just ran outside and ran away from the restaurant. I didn't care about anything. I thought I heard someone calling me. But I really didn't care. I just blew my last chance with Itachi! Now he'll hate me forever!
Tsunade's POV:
.
.
.
"Ugh" I groaned as I opened my eyes taking in the brightness of my room. I woke up with a slight headache. This was my reminder of why I shouldn't drink so much. I looked at my nightstand to see a bottle of water and aspirin there. Thank God. I thought to myself as I lifted my head to take to pills and downed the water. I laid my head back on my pillow. That's weird. I don't remember putting this here last night. I looked at the clock on the nightstand to notice that it was 6:10 in the morning. Thankfully it was Saturday and I can sleep in late.
"Wait a minute. I don't have a clock on my nightstand." I said to myself as I moved my head to look at my surroundings.
What the fuck this isn't my room. Where the fuck am I. I felt a breeze on my shoulder and realized that I was naked.
Why the hell am I naked?
Why the fuck am I sore?
What the hell did I do last night? More questions kept running into my head and little by little I started to remember being in the club, kissing Jiraya, Kashi carrying me out, us getting home and that was it. I decided that I should get out of wherever the hell I was. I tried moving but I could move. I looked down to see that an arm trapped me.
Holy shit there's an arm around me. What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?
I slowly turned my body to get a glimpse of who my captor was.
"WHAT THE FUCK! KAKASHI!" I yelled while jumping out of bed and pulling the covers to cover myself, thus making Kashi fall out of the bed and onto the floor. My yell and his fall made him grumpy. But I could care less about his mood. Then it hit me. The rest of my memory finally came rushing back.
"HOLY SHIT! I can't believe I did that."
"Must you yell so loud, its still early Nade."
I ignored what he said and looked to see him standing up. He was completely naked to. He didn't even try to cover up his body as I had. Oh my god his mask isn't on and his face is showing. This further pushed me into my hysterical fit.
" Oh My God, Oh My God, Oh My God, Oh My God, Oh My God"
" Nade" he sighed
"I can't believe I did this"
"Did what" he looked at me and smirked
" I can't believe I had sex with you."
"Believe it Nade, it happened and it was fucking amazing."
"I had sex with Kashi. Oh My God, Oh My God, Oh My God"
"Please stop that Nade and come back to bed." He groaned.
"Kashi and I had sex" I kept repeating this to myself as if I was trying to make sense of it.
When it finally sunk into my head. I become conscious of the fact that I gave him my virginity. My mind went back to replay last night. I wanted to see if Kashi had told me he loved me and that I didn't just give him virginity for nothing.
"What have I done?" I whispered. I felt tears rushing to my eyes. I gave him my most precious gift for nothing. He didn't even tell me he loved me. I foolishly let alcohol dull my senses to where I just gave it up freely.
"Nade! What's wrong? Why are you crying?" he rushed over to me and I began to hit myself in the head.
"I'm so stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid."
"Stop hitting yourself and tell me what's wrong."
"I'll tell you what's wrong. I'M STUPID. I had sex with you and willing gave you something because of the influence of alcohol. I gave you the one thing that I vowed never to give you unless you felt the same way for me that I do for you. I can't believe that I was so utterly foolish and stu-"
Not again. I allowed myself to be cut off yet again by one of his sweet mind blowing kisses. Great now he's gonna tell me how much of an idiot I am. I thought to myself as he broke apart from our kiss.
"Don't you remember Nade?"
"Huh, remember what" I began to blush from his intense stare and turned away. He rubbed my cheek with his hand and turned my face back to stare deeper into his eyes and I watched him smile sweetly at me.
"I told you that I loved you right before you went to sleep."
"WHAT? THAT WASN'T A DREAM!" Did I just hear that right? Did he really say he loves me?
"C-can you repeat that?" I stuttered.
"I said I. Love. You," he declared each word with a kiss.
OH MY GOD HE LOVES ME!
I was about to go into my happy dance when I remember something and my anger turned on.
"Why the fuck was you acting the you did these past few weeks."
"That's what I've been trying to explain to you this past week and last night, but you never let me." He said.
"Oh. Ok tell me now" he sighed and begun to explain.
"After our first kiss, I was in a constant battle with myself over my feelings for you. This didn't happen until I saw how much time you were spending with Dan. I was jealous because he was able to do all the things that I wanted to do for a long time. Nade, I have been in love with you since we were kids and when Dan came into the picture it made me jealous."
"Why did you date all of those girls?" I asked. I couldn't believe it. I was confused.
"Simple. They were all substitutes for you. Each one of those girls that I dated had one of your features. It could have been from your blonde hair to your fiery temper. All that mattered was they reminded me of you and since I couldn't have you I would be content with your substitute."
"Why didn't you tell me? You could have had the real thing?" I said as I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and continued.
"I didn't tell you because I couldn't figure out how to tell my best friend that I was in love with her. I was afraid that you didn't love me back and I was afraid of losing our friendship."
I instantly understood his reasons because it was exactly why I couldn't confess to him. I was about to stop him but he kept on.
"Last week, I realized all of the damage that I had done when I yelled at you. I didn't mean to yell the way I did but I was at the brink of my emotions. I shouldn't have taken it out on you. After that I was able to see that I was not only losing my true love but I was also losing my best friend. I had a long talk with Genma that night and he let it slipped that you was doing everything you did for me not because I was your best friend but because you was in love with me. I knew then that I had to fixed things and confess my true feeling to you. But woman you have a damn way of making that hard."
I just smiled. At least my torture method was working. He kissed my forehead and continued.
"Tsunade Senju. I have loved you since we were 10 and you was able to destroy the walls that I had built around me."
Happiness flowed throughout my entire body. My dreams were finally becoming a reality. I knew that I had to tell him my feelings to.
"I love you to Kashi. I loved you since we were 10 too, but I hid my feelings because I thought you wouldn't feel the same way." I noted that he let me go and walked over to his dresser drawers.
"Thank you for telling me that Nade but I can't ask you to be my girlfriend." He stated while digging in the drawer.
"What!" Anger started to flood my body. I was ready to beat him up. How could he make such a beautiful confession and then not ask me to be his girlfriend. He walked towards me, grabbed my wrist and dragged me to the bed. He sat on the bed and placed me in his lap.
"Nade, I can't ask you to be my girlfriend because you are too important to me to just be that."
That was when I saw him move the other hand and became aware of a beautiful platinum ring. There was a huge round yellow diamond in the center. There was smaller stones surrounding the diamond and there were also stones all around the band of it. Tears were streaming down my eyes.
"Nade, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You're my best friend and you know everything there is to know about me. I love you for who you are. The reason why I can't ask you to be my girlfriend is because I would rather have you as my wife. So my precious Nade, will yo-"
"Yes!" I pounced on him and began to shower him with kisses. I let my tears of happiness continue to flow from my face. I moved my legs to wrap around him when I felt a sharp pain. I was reminded of my soreness from earlier. He noticed my wince from the pain.
"That's right. You are sore from our activities last night." He moved me to the side, got up and went into his bathroom. I heard water running as he walked back out. He picked me up bridal style and carried me into the bathroom.
"I guess I should get a head start of taking care of my future wife." He sealed his statement with a kiss to my lips. I snuggled into his chest and smiled that all of my dreams were definitely coming true.
Sakura's P.O.V.:
.
.
.
I sniffled again. I'm so stupid! Why did I just run? Only I, with all my idiocy would run away from a ramen shop in an unknown town without a direction. I could have ran to Tsu-chan's apartment or Anko-chi's, but no. I just had to run around and then get lost. Now I'm in a strange place. It's a big red bridge that crosses a river. I forgot my purse with all my belongings back at the ramen shop and now I have no cellphone or any money. I just hope Tsu-chan or anyone else finds me. I'm getting hungry. Even Itachi-kun would be welcome.
Itachi-kun... I'm so stupid... I really am sorry. Sasuke really was just a bastard. But you know, he was the first man in my life. I feel like a chick that thinks that the first thing he sees is his mother. In my childhood memories Sasuke was always my hero. And somehow as we grew up, he got different. Going to parties, getting wasted, dating every single girl he saw... The Sasuke I built in my mind when I was a little girl really isn't the real Sasuke. Meanwhile, Itachi-kun was always Itachi-kun. Always cool and indifferent but always there when needed. Specially when Sasuke wasn't around. I wonder why he never made a move before... maybe because he thought that since I loved Sasuke, Sasuke should have his pick on me first... Itachi-kun always putting his brother first... And maybe after Sasuke rejected me, he decided to make his move... He was nearly screaming his affection for me... And I, stupid Sakura, picked Sasuke. The foolish Sasuke that only thought of me seriously after his brother did.
I prayed to Kami-sama that, if somehow I found my friends, I would tell them the entire truth. And I wouldn't worry about the consequences. If Itachi-kun wanted to hate me he could. If all of them wanted to hate me, they could. After High School, I could simply move here to Konoha and go to Konoha U. Tsu-chan would be my sempai. Maybe I could even find someone for me here. And if nobody wanted me, maybe that guy with the weird hair and eyebrows would...
"Sakura!"
Someone called my name! I turned to the left and saw Iruka-san and Shikamaru running towards me. Damn my traitorous tear ducts! Here I am crying again! I ran towards them and hugged Shikamaru. I didn't care anymore. It was so good to see a familiar face.
"Ah... Sakura..."
"I was so scared! Shika! I am sorry! I lied! I'm not bisexual and Anko-chi's not my fiancé and I know that Sasuke's a bastard and I should have picked Itachi-kun and Ino's an idiot for being confused because of Sai!" I blurted everything out and my world grew dark.
When I woke up, there was a white ceiling with blinding white lights. The sharp scent of alcohol filled my nose and I realized that I was in a hospital. The last thing I remembered was hugging Shikamaru and blurting a lot of things.
"I don't care! You're not family! Therefore you can't enter!"
I heard Tsu-chan yell at someone.
"And I don't care that I'm not family! You're not going to keep me from seeing her!"
I was surprised to hear Itachi's voice. I expected Ino's or Naruto's. Not Itachi's.
"You can glare at me all you want, Uchiha. You don't scare me!" I was glad that Tsu-chan was protecting me, but there was no need. I got out of my bed. Somehow my legs were very weak. I fell and took the chair with me creating a loud bang of metal hitting floor. Tsu-chan and Itachi barged inside the room. He was faster then her and got to me first. He picked me up in his arms and carried me to my bed as if I was a porcelain princess. I blushed to the roots of my hair. Tsu-chan had her arms crossed over her big breasts, a not very happy look in her face.
"You need to take better care of yourself, Sakura. You fainted from lack of food and stress. When was the last time you ate?" She looked very pissed.
"Before we went to the club." I sheepishly answered.
"You haven't eaten in 24 hours? No wonder you fainted! You're staying in this hospital until tomorrow morning!" She got closer and pointed at my face, giving me the opportunity to notice something that wasn't on her hand yesterday.
"That's a very nice ring. Did it come from Kakashi?"
Tsu-chan blushed hard. And let out a small yes. I smirked and her blush got redder.
"I want to be bridesmaid! And godmother too!" I smiled. I could almost see smoke coming from her ears. She left the room quickly and even forgot about taking Itachi-kun with her.
He sat next to me, in the chair that had fallen with me.
"I'm sorry." I said.
"I know. Anko told us everything after you left. She said that it was a plan of yours to test something." He smirked.
"Yes." There was something about his smirk that made me feel like little red riding hood facing the big bad wolf.
"If you wanted to make sure about my feelings for you, you could have asked."
"Ah... what are your feelings for me?" I really wanted to know. And if he offered, it would be a shame to refuse.
"I believe that you are a very pretty girl, with a very good intellect. And I have had an interest in you ever since you threw a paper ball at my nape to prevent me from teasing my foolish little brother."
Really, Itachi? That's all you have to say to me? That you've had an interest on me from when I threw a paper ball at you? I expected something better.
"And I have fallen in love with you when you first walked inside Suna High. You were beautiful with that amazing sailor uniform that displayed your gorgeous legs and your silky pink hair being caressed by the wind. I had to chase off all of your potential suitors. I even fought with Sasori because I considered him a threat. You're mine!" Itachi had grown closer and closer to me until he was hovering just above my face. I wanted -so much for him to just close the gap and kiss me.
"Are you mine, Sakura?"
I couldn't take it any longer.
"Oh, yes, Itachi, I'm yours. Please. Just kiss me already!" I said in such a very wantonly tone that I was very ashamed of myself later on. But at that moment, the only thing I could process was Itachi as we made out on the hospital bed.
Hooray! Now there is just the epilogue. Please read and review.
