Chapter Thirteen
"Teme.. He called me a teme" "He didn't mean it Sasuke-san, he's just mad" Sasuke scowled as he whispered. "Sakura, this is all your fault you know. "I'm so sorry Sasuke-san, I'm not gonna deny that it is my fault" You better wake your ass up so I can beat you half to death again. "I'll be holding you to that, and I am willing to accept whatever you'd want to do to me" You and your want to make everyone love you, you turned my parents against me. You turned Aniki and Shisui-baka against me. The worst part is you turned my son against me." "I didn't mean to Sasuke-san"
Sasuke shook as he growled out the words he had been holding back. He did not want anyone to see him like this, he cried quietly. He's losing his important people because of this rosette girl who he had been forced to marry. "Oh Kami-sama.. Please don't cry Sasuke-san. Kami-sama please give him strength"
"You're just like her you know" "Just like who? Sasuke-san?" Sasuke sighed sadly. "The want to please everyone, the unconditional love you have for everyone, the naivety you have with every action, the happiness you have through every and anything and the trust you put in people who do not deserve them" "It sounds like you truly liked this girl Sasuke-san, tell me more? I'd like to know you"
"You're so stupid you know that" "Haha, funny Sasuke-san. You've told me" He paused. "And with that you might just end up like her" "What happened to her? Who is her?"
She started getting the feeling back in her body, she had felt sore and pain shot through her entire body. She couldn't move anything yet but she can feel now, the numbness have subsided and she had been starting to wake up from what she knows is a medicine induced coma.
"I'll make it right, I'll fix it"
Sasuke had snapped awake upon feeling the stirring of chakra in the rosette female. He could not be wrong, he looked at the girl and she looked the same as she did 10 days ago. It was her chakra, he knew it and knowing that she's probably awake pissed him off.
"Sakura, damn it I know you're awake!" Sasuke screamed in frustration. His screaming woke the little boy up from his deep slumber in his mother's arms. Upon registering the fact that his mother was awake, he place his small hands on her face and looked straight into her closed eyes.
"What are you doing?" Sasuke stared at the little boy who had a wide smile on his face. In the ten days they have been there he had never seen him this happy. The young Uchiha had continued waiting and he squealed in anticipation.
"Tobi's pointing her face to me so Tobi will be the first person she sees!" The younger Uchiha cheered without removing his face close to his mothers. Sasuke chuckled and shook his head at his son's antics.
"Unghh-" They heard a groan come from the rosette's pink plump lips. She slowly opened her emerald eyes and it met warm jade hues, she instantly knew who it was.
"Kaa-chan!" Tobi had not let go of Sakura's face yet, Sakura giggled as she slowly pried of Tobi's hands off her face and wrapped her arms around his body. The little boy leaned into her body and wrapped his small arms around her neck loosely.
"Hi baby, did you miss me because I missed you" Sakura croaked out as she smiled warmly at the little boy who was hugging her. The little boy had started crying on her his warm tears that she wiped away with her thumb flowed continuously.
"Kaa-chan, you know Tobi missed you and Tobi is soooo happy that you are awake! Tobi will never leave your side and Tobi will protect you from evil people. Tobi's a good boy! Tobi is always gonna be brave for you and Tobi thinks that Kaa-chan is very pretty and did you know Uncle Itachi taught Tobi how to throw Kunais and Shurikens and Uncle Shisui was trying to teach Tobi how to walk on trees like ninjas and Uncle Shisui said Tobi needed more practice but Tobi will do it, right Kaa-chan?" Tobi looked at the rosette who giggled as he ranted freely. Sakura ruffled his hair and kissed his nose.
"Yes baby, you'll be a great ninja" Sakura continued to snuggle with the little boy. Sasuke just watched the mother-son combo, and unconsciously let himself smile. He tapped Tobi on the shoulder who ignored him.
"Tobi-chan, I'll be bringing you to the academy today" Sasuke smiled as he tried to coax the little boy out of the rosette's arms. Sakura let the little boy out of her arms and gave him a soft push towards his father which he frowned to.
"How will you be a great ninja if you don't go to school?" Sakura teased as she poked the little boy who's jade eyes widened at the thought of not being a great ninja.
"But Kaa-chan, Tobi doesn't wanna go. Who's gonna take care of kaa-chan while Tobi's in school?" Tobi scowled at the girl and he folded his arms in front of his chest.
"Well, I can take-" Sakura answered but was cut off by Sasuke.
"I'll watch her and take care of her" Sasuke assured the little boy who raised his ink coloured eyebrow and rolled his jade eyes at him.
"Suuuure" Tobi drawled out and Sasuke laughed and dragged the little boy off to go to the academy. Sakura sighed to herself and decided to nap again but before she had drifted into sleep, a carrier pigeon had tapped into her window, she let the bird in and it spit out katsuyu.
"Katsuyu!" She cheered as she picked up the little slug into her hands. "What are you doing here? Did Tsunade-shishou ask you to go here?" Sakura rambled as she watched the little slug.
"I've got a letter for you Sakura-sama, I went here as a favor to Tsunade-hime she wanted an assurance that you were okay. We received a letter that you were in an accident and you almost died. Are you okay now Sakura-sama?" Katsuyu's receptors moved back and forth as she crawled around Sakura's palm.
"I'm okay, I fell off a cliff and almost drowned" Sakura chuckled. "I had a moment of stupidity and weakness, I had no more chakra due to training and boom"
"Oh, I'm glad you're alright Sakura-sama, I have to go now." Katsuyu poofed into a scroll which she opened. It was a letter from those who knew, those who mattered and those who loved and cared about her. She read the letter and what she read brought her to tears, it made her even more homesick. The sobbed into the letter her friends wrote for her. She was so distracted she had not felt the entry of Sasuke into her room, he decided to not bother her and just sit there until she notices him.
She looked up from the letter to see Sasuke watching her. He looked nonchalant and emotionless just like usual. She hurriedly wipe off the tears on her face and rubbed her eyes but a pale hand stopped her from rubbing her eyes.
"Don't, you'll scratch your eyes" Sasuke scolded her.
"Hello Sasuke-san" She greeted bowing her head slightly. Sasuke nodded to acknowledge her greeting and moved his chair closer to her bed.
"We need to talk"
