Chapter 8
Feelings
" Itachi! Yumiko has a trail. Don't come out of hiding until Ryuu is distracted." Konan said through her head phone's mic. Yumiko was running beside Konan, sniffing the ground desperately. Sakura was like Yumiko's mother. So it's only to be expected for Yumiko to want to kill Ryuu.
" Understood." Itachi replied. Anger boiled over his entire body. About to explode with anger.
The sly white tiger was sniffing the ground at a fast speed. She could tell they were getting closer and closer to Sakura with every second.
Yumiko let out a sharp growl. " We'll be there in 5 minutes tops! Their at a cave due North!" Konan practically yelled.
Somewhere in a cave Sakura was sitting against a wall. Ryuu had stopped to get food. He returned with well cooked fish.
Ryuu pulled her close and ran his finger through her hair. Sakura flinched at the close contact. " Ryuu.."
But she was silenced with a kiss. " I'll make you...truly mine now mate.." He whispered in her ear. Sakura gazed at him in terror. What did he mean by that? His hands roamed to the bottom of her dress and under it...
" NO!!"
Itachi froze in his tracks. Sakura? That was definitely her voice. Hers.Screaming No.Alone.With Ryuu.
His speed increased at least ten fold and could spot the cave in seconds. He could see Ryuu hovering above a shaking Sakura and a deep growl escaped his throat. His eyes turned red and began spinning.
Sakura flinched with every touch. Itachi-kun...Kaa-san...Yumiko...Sasuke-kun...Hinata-chan...Help me please
Suddenly she felt nothing but the floor beneath her. She didn't dare open her eyes yet.
She heard Ryuu gasp and be thrown to the hard cave walls. She lightly opened her eyes, only to see Itachi choking Ryuu. " Itachi-kun..What are you doing to Ryuu..?"
" Sakura listen to me! He's a REAL Ryuu!" Itachi said angrily. His hands were burning from contact with Ryuu.
Sakura looked down at her own skin. There was burn marks. She gasped. " A..a real Ryuu..?" She repeated.
She was engulfed in a hug. " Kaa-san!" Sakura exclaimed into the hug.
Konan sighed in relief. " Sakura...I'm so glad you're ok..."
Sakura looked back over to Ryuu. He was being held by Deidara and Sasori. Kisame had a kunai to his throat. Itachi instantly replaced Konan in a hug. Sakura wrapped her arms around his neck. " Thank you." She whispered.
Ryuu's eyes were bloodshot red. " Don't touch her!" He screamed. Ryuu was kicking wildly and roaring out fire. Deidara, Sasori, and Kisame couldn't hold him for long. He got free of their grasps and shot out towards Sakura. Konan had a fierce look in her eyes.
Suddenly she was behind him and had her hand pushing his head to the ground, with her foot on his back.
She said some incoherent words and a seal mark began to appear on Ryuu's skin. He let out a shrill scream of pain as the mark covered his whole body. Then after a puff of smoke, taking his place, was a scroll. Konan grabbed the scroll and threw it deep within the caves walls. She performed a jutsu and a wall became visible, covering Ryuu's side of the cave from all life.
Sakura was whimpering, still holding onto Itachi. " Lets go..."
Konan looked at Sakurawith sympathetic eyes. Yumiko licked Sakura's hand.
On the way back to base...they passed the gates of Konoha. Sakura stared longingly at the village. It was there waiting for her...And she wasn't able to go back. She stared at the Hokage faces. How long had she been standing here?
" Sakura-chan..." Sasuke
" S-Sakura-chan." Hinata
" Oi, forehead!" Ino
" Sakura..." Shikimaru.
" Sakuraaaaaaaaa-chaaaan!" Naruto
" Sakura-chan... daijoubu desuka?" Neji ( Sakura-chan...Are you alright? )
"Watashi no musume.." Kaa-san... ( My daughter...)
But now...
" Sakura." Sasori-san
"Musume!" Pein ( Daughter! )
"Hime!" Kisame ( Princess!)
" Sakura, un!"
" KAWAII! SAKURA-CHAAAAN!" Konan...Kaa-san.. ( CUTE! SAKURA-CHAAAAN! )
" Hn. Sakura." Itachi-kun.
" Puuuurrrrr" Kumiko ( XD Sakura Kaa-san )
Itachi was the only one standing beside her. A few hours had passed.
" Hn. Lets go." He said in a bored tone. Sakura looked back and glared at him.
He ignored the glare. " Sakura, Konan will be angry."
" I want to go back to Konoha with you."
" We can't."
" I'll go back alone."
" I won't allow it."
" Then tell me how you feel about me and I'll come back with you." Sakura pressed.
" I..."
" Say it or I'm leaving for good."
" Sakura..I..."
" I?" Sakura repeated.
"Kimi wa ai shiteru" Itachi breathed.
"Watashi no koto ai shiteru...?" Sakura asked in disbelief.
" Hai."
Sakura was crying tears of joy. "I love you, Itachi-kun!" Sakura threw her arms around his neck and cried into his shirt.
" Baka..." Itachi smiled wrapping his arms around her. Sakura cried more. He stroked her pink hair.
( Translation:
" I love you." Itachi breathed.
" You love me...?" Sakura asked in disbelief.
" Yes."
End )
That night when Sakura took a bath...
KYAAAAAA ITACHI CONFESSED! I'm sooo lucky...so super LUCKY! Sakura screamed in her head.
Hell Yeah! We are so lucky!
Oh my god...Who are you...and why are you in my HEAD?
I'm you...well your inner self...
But..you...are..talking..and...
You done yet?
...inner...self...huh...wha..?...how...
Well...?
Ok. I'm done. Why are you here?
I've always been here...I just chose now to start talking. :)
Ok...Can you stop talking...Cuz you're seriously freaking me out...
GOD! FINE! BUT I WILL BE BACK!:O
-.-...Oh joy.
Sakura was feeling dizzy from...talking..to..herself...So she decided to leave the tub. She but on a long blue night dress.
She combed her hair and brushed her teeth.
She left the bathroom and headed for her room. But before she could open it someone grabbed her hand. " Where are you going?" Itachi asked...well..errr... demanded.
" To sleep.." Sakura said, blushing slightly.
" Why in your room?" Itachi raised a single brow.
" Because your on lockdown." Sakura giggled.
Itachi growled. Sakura stuck out her tongue. " And if you try anything I'll scream rape. You know how Kaa-san and Otou-san get..."
Itachi rolled his eyes and began to walk away.
Sakura giggled and walked into her own room. It's been a year since she'd slept in her own bed by herself.
She layed on her right. Then left. On her belly. On her back. Head over the edge. O.o
There was a knock on Itachi's door. He answered and standing there was Sakura.
"Hn?"
" I can't sleep." She said blushing and entering Itachi's room.
Itachi just smirked and closed his bedroom door.
Sakura was blushing like mad when she felt the warmth of his body next to her.
She let out an akward "eep" sound when her head hit his hard chest and his arms wrapped around her.
LuckyluckyluckyluckyLuckyluckyluckyluckyLuckyluckyluckyluckyLuckyluckyluckyluckyLuckyluckyluckyluckyLuckyluckyluckylucky
It wasn't until now she realized her eyes were nailed shut. Baka..
She cracked her eyes open. She stared at Itachi's dark blue shirt. Then she looked up slowly.
Jade met crimson.
" Kyaaaaaaaaaa!" Sakura screamed blushing red.
Itachi chuckled as Sakura turned even more red. " Sorry...You just scared me.." Sakura said quietly.
"Hn."
"..."
"..."
" Itachi-kun, I'm thirsty."
"...hn..." Itachi left to get her a glass of water.
Sakura chugged it down. " Ah.." She giggled happily as Itachi climbed back into bed.
"..."
"...Itachi?"
" hn?"
" Im hungry..."
"..." Itachi went to make her a sandwich.
Sakura devoured it by the time Itachi was again lying beside her.
Ten minutes later Itachi was sleeping. His face tangled in Sakura's pink hair with his arms possessively holding onto her.
She poked him. His eyes snapped open and he looked at questioning her motives.
" Itachi?" She asked quietly.
Itachi groaned. What did she need now? A bath? T.T
" I love you."
"..." She buried her head in his chest. Waiting for the worst.
" I already told you I love you."
Itachi's words rang through her head and she smiled.
She reached her arms around his neck and pulled up to kiss him.
When she broke the kiss she returned to her spot and smiled to herself.
Itachi was in shock. Never had Sakura kissed him. He always kissed HER.
He too smiled to himself and stroked Sakura's hair.
It was that night that Sakura first heard her lullaby. It was beautiful and Itachi had sung it just for her. It suprised her that he could actually sing...but she loved it. It was so beautiful. It echoed earth.
" Sakura's Lullaby "
Haru...? Haru
Springtime in my heart
Springtime in my heart
Sakura, sakura,
yayoi no sora wa
Miwatasu kagiri
Kasumi ka kumo ka
Nioizo Izuru
Izaya, izaya,
Mi ni yukan.
Blossom, blossom; Haru ga kita, Haru ga kita:
Sakura, sakura
Cherry blossoms April brings
Up against the clear blue sky
Mist-like petals gently sigh
Fill the air with signs of spring
Come with me, come with me
See the sweet cherry trees bloom.
Sakura, sakura,
yayoi no sora wa
Miwatasu kagiri.
Kasumi ka kumo ka
Nioizo Izuru
Izaya, izaya,
Mi ni yukan.
