Recap
Ami whipped her head around to find Sasuke standing beside Sakura with his arm around her waist and he was nuzzling her neck.
"EEEEEEEEEK!!!!!! UGLY PINKY GIRL WHAT DID YOU DO TO SASUKE-KUN?!" Ami screamed at the sigh in front of her.
"Do you even know who I am?" Sakura glared.
"Some pink freak." Ami smirked at her.
Sakura death glared at her, "Haruno Sakura, and your Sasuke now belongs to Me, Got that? Now run along before throw you through 5 brick walls."
Sasuke smirked and continued nuzzling Sakura's neck.
Ami eyes widened, "H-h-haruno-sama, GOMENASAI!" Ami quickly bowed and ran away.
Naruto burst out laughing, "Wow what an dumb ass girl."
"Haha, you should've seen her facial expression." Ino laughed.
"Hm lets go home." Sakura suggested.
"But its only lunch time." Neji said.
"So?" Tenten grinned.
"OKAY!" Naruto yelled punching his fist in the air.
"Hn." Sasuke smirked.
"Troublesome." Shikamaru sighed.
"Just like old times." Ino winked.
"Yeah.. those were good times." Hinata smiled.
As the group walked out of the Gym, Sakura yelled out to Tsunade, "TSUNADE-SAMA WE'RE GOING HOME!" Sakura then followed the rest out of the gym.
"W-wait!! HARUNO!!!!!!! STOP SKIPPING YOUR CLASSES!!!" Tsunade yelled but then smiled at her pet pig, "Just like old times ne Tonton?"
The pig that was next to her smiled back, "Oink oink!"
End Recap
When they reached the girl's mansion, Sakura smirked, Ino smiled, Tenten grinned, Hinata giggled "We're home!"
And just then maids and butlers came to the door, "Welcome home!"
"What would you like to eat for lunch today?" a maid asked.
The girls turned around and looked at the guys for an answer.
"Uhh.. Ramen!" Naruto grinned only to earn a bonk on the head by Sasuke.
"Troublesome.. we'll have what your having."
Ino raised her eyebrow, "You sure about that?"
Neji crossed his arms and looked at them weirdly, "Yeah we're pretty sure.. why wouldn't we be?"
"Oh nothing." Tenten smiled innocently.
Neji shivered a bit, 'A little too innocent' he thought.
"The usual." Sakura told the maid who quickly nodded and dashed towards the kitchen.
Sasuke smirked, "We're sleeping over tonight."
Pause.
Pause.
Chirp.
Chirp.
Squeak.
Squeak.
"WHAT?!!!!!!!!!" Ino, Tenten and Hinata yelled. (A/N: Hinata's yelling was quieter!)
Sakura raised her eyebrow, "Says who?"
"Me." Sasuke smirked at her.
'Shit he's messing with me' Sakura glared at him.
"Hn we are staying whether you like it or not." Neji glanced at Tenten.
"Troublesome.. I guess that's it, we're staying." Shikamaru sighed.
….
….
….
"You have Ramen right?" Naruto grinned and earned five bonks on the head.
"Dobe." Sasuke gave him the Uchiha death glare.
"Retard." Neji shaked his head.
"Troublesome." Shikamaru mumbled.
"YOU IDIOT! IS RAMEN ALL YOU THINK ABOUT EACH DAY?!" Ino yelled at him.
"Forget yelling at him, just kill him for pete's sake." Tenten said while twirling her kunai in one finger.
Sakura and Hinata we're on the sidelines watching them. Sakura smirking, and Hinata having a worried face.
"U-umm.. don't you guys have a basketball tryout tomorrow? Why don't you guys go practice in the court outside? We'll bring the lunch out to you." Hinata said with a smile.
Tenten stopped what she was about to do and turned to Hinata, "Yes I agree with her.. I need some girl time with you guys anyways."
Ino winked, "Great idea Hinata! What do you think Sakura?" They all turned to Sakura who had one hand on her hip, the other one beside her and her eyes closed, "I agree."
The guys looked at each other and raised their eyesbrows, 'Weird..'
"Now shoo, go practice for tomorrow!" Ino said while calling a maid to guide them to the court.
As the guys were almost out of sight, they glanced at the girls one last time before disappearing from view.
"Well… Spill!" Tenten grinned at Hinata.
"Yeah Yeah Hinata! I know you want to tell us everything! Right Sak-.." Ino stopped talking when she notice Sakura missing from the spot where she was.
"Eh Sakura?" Hinata looked around and saw her going up the stairs.
"Im taking a nap." Her simple reply.
The three girls sweat dropped then shrugged and turned back to what they were doing.
"Alright since we're away from the girls, lets have some guy talk." Neji suggested.
Sasuke nodded, Shikamaru mumbled something about Troublesome and Naruto grinned, "Yeah!"
"Naruto you go first." Neji smirked at him.
"ALRIGHT! I love Hinata!" Naruto smiled proudly.
The three sweat dropped, 'So direct..'
"Troublesome I love Ino." Shikamaru looked up at the sky.
"I saw that coming." Sasuke smirked.
"Tch.. I like Tenten." Neji crossed his arms and glanced at their reaction only to see them raising their eyebrows, "Alright alright.. I love her."
The three were satisfied and they smirked.
"So.. teme its your turn!" Naruto grinned.
"Sakura." Was all he said.
Naruto scratched his head, "Sakura what..?"
Shikamaru sighed again, "You should understand it Naruto, you are his Bestfriend aren't you?"
Naruto grinned sheepishly, "Heh Heh.."
Neji, being an icecube person also translated for Naruto, "He means he loves Sakura."
"Ohh I get it!"
"No you don't dobe."
"Shut up Teme! I UNDERSTAND IT!"
Sasuke glared at him, "Lets practice, im not going to waste my time talking to an idiot."
"Lets do this hardcore Basketball!" Naruto yelled while punching his fist to the sky.
The three gave him a 'WTF' look.
….
….
….
"AND IM NOT A DOBE TEME!"
Sakura sighed as she reached the Karaoke room, no.. she wasn't going to sleep she just wanted some time alone to fix up her thoughts.
Even if shes cold and heartless on the outside.. in the inside Sakura is like a cherry blossom.. able to wither away.. able to fall down and never stand up again.. able to cry her heart out.. She pushes everyone out to not let them see whats behind the mask. As much as she loves Sasuke.. she doesn't want to get hurt anymore, doesn't want to feel the pain, the pain when her parents were murdered.. she cant take it. Shes like crystal.. once its scratched.. it will never look like the same. Yes.. that's what she is, stabbed once.. and never let anyone in anymore.
Sakura looked up as she saw the Karaoke door, just as she was about to open it, she felt something wet on her cheek rolling down to her chin. She touched her cheek to feel tears.. her own tears.. tears she's been trying to hide for years. She quickly wipes it away and opens the door steps in and closes the door behind her. This is the place where she'll let out her emotions, the place where she'll feel the pain, the place where she'll pick herself up again.
"HAH I KNEW IT!" Tenten and Ino both shouted and pointed at Hinata.
"YOU LIKE NARUTO!" They both squealed in delight.
"Our little Hinata is growing up so fast!"
Hinata sweat dropped.. but then something came up to her mind, "Wait.. Sakura never takes naps."
Ino and Tenten both snapped out of their 'OMG-Hinata-Likes-Naruto' mode and agreed with Hinata. Sakura never takes naps in the afternoons.
"Something's wrong." Ino said worried about her Pink haired friend.
"And we're going to find out." Tenten stood up from the chair, Ino and Hinata following.
"Alright! Mission: FIND HARUNO SAKURA!" Ino began walking upstairs followed by Tenten and Hinata.
"Man –pant- where –pant- is –pant- our –pant- food? –pant-." Naruto said tiredly.
Shikamaru looked up at the sky again, "Probably coming soon –pant-."
Sasuke took a sip from the water bottle provided at the court, "Let's go find the girls?"
Neji nodded walking back towards the mansion followed by the other three.
Sakura sat down in front of the piano. Placed her delicate fingers onto the keys and played one of her favorite songs.
She sang quietly to her self while playing the piano, "She walks to school with a lunch she packed.."
She stopped playing and let her tears that she's been hiding fall. She couldn't hold it anymore, the pain she held inside of her, behind that heartless mask she's been holding on.. holding onto what's left of her, holding on to her life..
"Nobody knows what she's holding back.."
Sakura snapped her head up only to see the rest of the group looking at her, Ino, Tenten, Hinata, Sasuke, Naruto, Neji, Shikamaru.
Her tears still silently falling down her face.
The girls stepped forward, "Sakura.."
Sakura stood up from the piano chair and took a few steps towards them but stopped a few feet away.
Ino smiled sadly at her, "Sakura.. baka.." and she walked up and hugged Sakura joined by Tenten and Hinata.
Hinata stroked her back, "Its okay Sakura.. let it out.. its okay to cry."
Tenten hugged her tighter, "Its okay to cry, to feel pain, to feel fear."
Ino patted her hair, "Sometimes.. crying is strength. Crying is normal Sakura.. we cry when we're hurt, we cry when we're happy."
Sakura, understanding their words cried, she cried not because she was hurt now or because she was happy, she cried because she wanted to let it all out, the pain that she didn't want to show. The pain shes beening hiding for years.
The guys looked at the girls with shock, 'They're so close together.. nothing can break them apart.
Sasuke then elbowed the guys and gestured them to go to the instruments near them.
Understanding what he meant they placed themselves at each instrument. Naruto Drums, Shikamaru Piano, Neji and Sasuke Guitar.
Sasuke turned to them and mouthed 'Same Song.'
The three nodded. Shikamaru and Naruto started playing the duet.
The girls didn't even look up and understood what they meant.
Ino:
She walks to school with a lunch she packed,
Tenten:
Nobody knows what she's holding back..
Hinata:
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday,
Ino:
She hides the bruises with the linen and lace;
Oh
Hinata:
The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask,
Tenten:
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask;
Ino:
Bearing the burdon of a secret storm,
Sasuke and Neji started playing the guitar quietly
All:
Sometimes she wishes she was never born;
Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.
Concrete Angel
Hinata:
Somebody cries in the middle of the night
Ino:
The neighbors hear but they turn out the lights
Tenten:
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
Hinata:
When morning comes it will be too late.
All:
Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.
Concrete Angel
Tenten:
A statue stands in a shaded place
Hinata:
An angel girl with an upturned face
Ino:
Her name is written on a polished rock
Tenten:
A broken heart that the world forgot
All:
Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.
Concrete Angel..
And for once.. Sakura slept peacefully in her friend's arms, without having to worry what will come next.. because she knows she'll have friends beside her, supporting her through everything.
Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter :D!
