The Strange Power
Chapter 5: Suspicions

(A/N: Okay, so this chapter is going to be extremely short because I'm building suspense. The next chapter is going to have alot of events so it will be long.)

Previously...

Sasuke looked up at her, seeing how serious she was. Slowly, he nodded.

"I promise."

Presently...
Sakura's P.O.V.

"Okay..." Sakura said, wondering how to begin. "Well...It's been going on for week, but I didn't think much of it until yesterday night."

Sasuke looked at her curiously, wondering where she was going with this.

"You've been wondering why I've been acting strange." Sakura said. It wasn't a question, but Sasuke nodded. "It's because I've been having dreams."

"Dreams?" Sasuke asked, confused. Sakura nodded slowly and continued.

"Only one. It's been the same one for a while now." she hesitated and Sasuke knew that the next part was going to be hard for her to say.

"Sasuke-kun, I dreamt about the fire before it happened." Sakura said, and put her hand on his. "The reason I was at your house that night was because I was going to tell you about it, but I was too late."

At the mention of the fire, Sasuke turned his head and closed his eyes, trying to shut out the memory. "So that's why you were late yesterday." he said, eyes still shut. He yawned again.

"Yeah..." Sakura said, getting up and shutting the curtains. "You should get some sleep." Sasuke looked uncomfortable and was shivering, but nodded. Sakura knew what he was worried about.

"Don't worry. If you want, I'll lay down with you." she looked at Sasuke. He hesitated then nodded.

"Yeah." he whispered, almost inaudibly. Sakura went back to the bed and sat down next to him, pulling the covers over him.

Seeing that Sasuke was still shivering, she said, "Come here, Sasuke-kun." Sasuke hesitated for a moment and then, reluctantly, he scooted next to Sakura and closed his eyes, feeling her lift him into her arms.

Sasuke's P.O.V.

Sasuke scooted next to Sakura, closing his eyes as she took him in her arms. He felt her stroke the dark shadows under his eyes.

"Get some sleep, okay?" Sakura said, pulling him close. Sasuke turned his head, pressing his face against her chest.

Suddenly, he realized something important. He fought his tired eyelids and forced them open.

"Sakura..." Sasuke whispered, trying to keep his eyes open. Sakura bent down so she could hear him.

"Do you ever wonder if maybe your dreams are visions of future events?" Sasuke asked, yawning. Sakura thought about it.

"You may be on to something, Sasuke-kun, but we'll talk about it when you wake up, okay?" she said, realizing that he may be right.

Sasuke closed his eyes and said, "Okay." he felt Sakura's lips press against his forehead and he smiled slightly before letting the darkness have him.

Sakura's P.O.V.

Sakura gently pressed her lips against Sasuke's forehead. She pulled back, noticing the small smile forming on his lips.

Minutes later, Sasuke's breathing evened out and his head fell back, exposing his neck and some burns that Sakura hadn't noticed before.

Sakura examined them and was relieved to find that they were healing themselves. She carefully laid Sasuke down on the pillows, before laying down next to him.

Closing her eyes, Sakura whispered, "Sweet dreams, Sasuke-kun." before she fell asleep.
