We weaved in and out of alley ways and rounded around buildings quickly. I wasn't really sure why I was following him but at the moment I was too pissed at Itachi to care. When we finally stopped for air there was no sign of him.

"I think we lost him."

"I doubt he followed us Sasuke."

"He followed us. There's no way he didn't."

"Yeah sure." I noticed he was still holding my wrist; I pulled it away. "I'm going home."

"Sasuke!" We both jumped at the sudden yell.

Turning Itachi was jogging up to us. He didn't look very pleased.

"Damn it," Sasuke cursed under his breath.

Itachi grabbed Sasuke's elbow. "Come on, we've got to go. Mom called. She was worried because you're not home yet."

Sasuke ripped his elbow away. "Whatever." He shoved his hands in his pockets and stormed off. Stopping, he looked over his shoulder and smirked. "We should do that again sometime. Later."

I laughed. Itachi shot me a look. I glared right back at him. "What?" He didn't answer and just shook his head, walking away from me.

In a flurry of tears I took off towards my car. The heels I had worn clicking across the cement pavement. My chest was moving up and down frantically as I panted. I sped home.

That next school day we exchanged glares instead of greetings. I sat down by Hinata.

"What happened between you two now?"

"I was just simply having coffee with Sasuke and he was a total jerk."

"You had coffee with Sasuke?!"

"Yeah? So?"

"Oh Sakura, no wonder why he's mad!"

"What? I'm an adult. I'm allowed to have coffee with an old friend once in a while!"

She just flinched. Only half the day had passed and I was already feeling exhausted.

"I'm going home," I said as I started to pack.

"What? Are you okay?"

"No, I'm feeling a little dizzy. I'm just going to go to bed."

"Good luck checking out with Itachi."

"Oh shit. You're right."

I glumly walked down the stairs to his desk. He looked up from his papers, just peeking over his glasses.

"Mr. Uchiha, I'm going home for the day." He looked confused.

"Are you okay?" His harsh expression faded. "Your face is a little red." He reached up to touch my forehead but I moved away. He drew it back sharply.

"I'm fine, just need a little rest."

He went back to his paperwork. "Alright, get better soon. There's an exam next week."

So lonely.

"Yes sir." My eyes betrayed me and a few drops of water escaped my eyes.

His head snapped back up towards me. I ran out of the room before he could see the pitiful state he's dragged me too.

Staying true to my word I went to bed as soon as I got home. My eyes already hurting from the tears they leaked. Before heading off to dream land I put on a soft pink, button up, cloth, long sleeved pajama shirt with pants that matched and went past my feet in length. I laid back in dream and drifted off.

I was sitting on the ground. It was cold and sent shivers through my body. I looked up to see Itachi standing just a few feet in front of me. My legs were glued to the spot but I reached for him. The world around us was covered in a white mist. As much as I tried to call out to him I was ignored. As he left me I saw him walk up to another woman. She hung off his arm. Her bangs shadowed her eyes but I could clearly see her smirk.

"Oh look," she gloated. "Pathetic, isn't she darling? Poor thing."

He wrapped his arm around her waist and they walked even farther away from me.

I jolted out of my sleep. Sitting upright in bed I looked around the room; it was dark. The only light emitting was from the full moon outside the window. I ruffled my long hair and leaned against the cool wall, staring up at the night sky.

I wonder if he's home?
