Decsions of love.
Chapter Twelve. Anger blossoms.
"What lies ahead of you and what lies in front of you pales in comparison to what lies inside of you." -Ralph Waldo Emersan.
Sakura walked into a clearing that was full of cherry blossom tree's. She didn't observe the beautiful nature she was half destroying while she stomped through the tulips and fallen cherry blossom petals. Until Sasuke roughly caught her arm and spun the rampaging girl around.
"What!?" Sakura demanded.
"Why are you running away?!" Sasuke demanded looking into her emerald orbs.
"Because... I can't abandon my team and my village like you did." Sakura snapped but wouldn't look him in the eyes.
"Hn. Thought you said you had a mission." Sasuke reminded and sneered back at the angry girl.
"I do, but is there any point... Your not coming home wether you kill Itachi or not." Sakura said finally looking into his eyes.
"Hn. I have no reason to return." Sasuke said.
"You had Team seven, hell you still do! We've been waiting for you to return for three years Sasuke! Three years! You still have your friends, the original twelve. You still have everything you left... It's all still there!" Sakura yelled at him furiously, her eyes wide out of rage and her body trembling from resisting the urges to slap him.
Sasuke was speechless, he didn't know what to say, to tell her she was right, he was pretty sure she knew that already. To go back to Konoha, it would be nice to have a home again, and... A place to raise his future family; he needed to plan for the future not just now but for five to ten years from now.
"You left us... You left me!" Sakura whispered while she stared into his obsidian orbs.
"I-I did..." Sasuke said while guilt bubbled in his stomach, and his voice stuttered and failed.
Sakura started to turn away before she was pushed up against a nearby tree, the bark digging into her pink shirt. She gasped at the rough contact, and the Uchiha's close body. She felt his heat radiating off of his body and his even breath fan her face.
"Listen to me because I'm only saying this once, I've considered coming back...to Konoha... I know that everyone is there and it's my home, how could I forget when your...our team tracked me down for two and a half years! They wouldn't accept me back, even Naruto wouldn't accept me back fully things won't just be the same." Sasuke sad quietly while his hands were on both sides of her head.
"Plus everyone's gotten better without me, they'll continue to do better without me, and I have to kill Itachi. My revenge comes first. *Sigh*. I'd probably be killed on spot if I even entered the village." Sasuke said while looking at Sakura's beautiful green eyes.
"Actually I've done a little research into this... You would only have probation and some house arrest, and a court case worst they can do is keep you in village arrest for six months. Everyone's gotten better to save you, we've all gotten stronger for the rescue missions, everyone will come around. Sasuke... You be in complete darkness if you continue on the path your going." Sakura reasoned forgetting her anger.
"I'll come back on a few condition." Sasuke offered with a smirk.
"What's the conditions?" Sakura said with a large smile on her face, she was obviously happy she just got her team mate back and completed her mission.
"One- You'll stay on the team... With me until We kill Itachi. Two- My team and I are not prisoners! When we meet up with Naruto and the original twelve, we will tell them are agreement. Three- You have to obey me... Meaning if I say stay beside me you don't run off and get killed." Sasuke said sternly and Sakura laughed before she nodded her head and started digging in her pouch to find a scroll.
"There's no need for a scroll, they said they'll be here in less than forty-eight hours." Sasuke said while Sakura sighed and then tried to push off of the tree before she was met with Sasuke's toned Muscular body. She blushed and he smirked before he lowered his head slightly and said.
"And Condition number four-" He lowered his head and lightly pushed his body against hers, making her fall back on the tree. He smirked before he focused on her lips and leaned his whole body forward, bending his elbows while he positioned his lips by her own. He waited a few seconds for her to figure out what was going on, and for her to react... Possibly push him off.
He flicked his obsidian eyes to her closed lids, and moved forward and captured her soft pink lips with his own. He leaned farther forward and pushed her back against the tree, while his whole body straightened and he leaned his head down towards the girl he was in a lip lock with.
Inner: HELL YEAH GET SOME!
Oh... This feels so different... I've never gotten this feel from Lynx or the bar rats... No man has made me feel like...like this! What is this?
Inner: Who cares! It feels great!
I've never done this with anyone... But it feels so good, she's the only woman that's gotten my attention and emotions... And this it's amazing... I'm tingling, my hands are itching to touch her skin, I need more. She's addicting.
Sasuke pushed a little farther and brought his body completely against hers, she moved her hands up to his neck and pressed on his neck bringing him farther down, while he nibbled on her lower lip. Sasuke slowly as if testing... Again, moved his right hand on her left hip wrapping his right arm around her waist, and his left hand on her neck and cheek.
His touch burns my skin and leaves goosebumps in his wake. His raven hair is soft and his spiky hair is natural... Not gelled. I can feel his legs shifting into the kiss, moving to get closer wanting more, he wanted more, I wanted more but I'm scared... I'm scared if we go farther we won't be able to stop.
I tugged on his neck gently pulling him down while his lips stayed on mine, not going to far, and barely entering my mouth. He complied and leaned down keeping his eyes shut and his body as well as his lips pressed against mine. I pushed my hips against his and made him back up enough for me to flip my body on top of his. Making him have his back against the tree and I had my chest against his.
He smirked against my lips before he moved his hands on my hips and an inch up my shirt, while rubbing my back. I gasped at his cold hands and the Uchiha didn't waste a second to dart his tongue inside my mouth. My back ached with want and need, to go farther. His tongue explored the canvasses of my mouth and stroked the sides of my tongue, teasing me.
"Ooom...mmmpp." Sakura moaned quietly while Sasuke leaned against her and made her lean down and arch her back against his Chest while he took her to the ground. She felt him planting kisses on her neck and shoulders, she noticed he wouldn't go farther, he respected her. Well it was only there first kiss.
Sasuke smirked at the girls moan while he pushed her down towards the ground, she was subsiding, caving in.They were both caught in the moment; but he knew his boundries. He kissed and sucked on her neck leaving his mark, his feelings were starting to unravel... He felt protective over her, these marks would indicate she was his.
He felt responsible for her, condition number three, obey me. He felt guilt for leaving, he felt horny from her touch, and admiration for the strong woman she had become. There was much more he needed to unravel but for now that was enough of an emotional change.
He playfully bit down on her skin leaving small indents in her skin, and a redish purple love bruise behind. His next bite was a little too hard and she squeaked and instinctually pushed him a back. His body didn't move but four inches from her own, but her hand flew to the small bleeding wound while she glared at the smirking Uchiha.
"You know Uchiha, your suppose to protect me not bite me!" Sakura said while scowling before he pulled her hand off to see if he really did hurt her. She blushed at his motion and looked away before smiling and teasingly pushed him back a few more inches.
"I like Conditiom number four...." Sakura said while wrapping her arms around her neck and nudging his chin up. She started kissing under his jaw line and moved down to his neck Leaving little bites of her own and small hickies.
She smirked against his skin and leaned against him while the cold nights wind blew against them, she shivered against his toned body, and he unconsciously wrapped his arms around her while he rested his head on her soft pink hair.
Sakura moved her head from against his chest to his neck and bit down a little over medium pain. He growled at her but didn't push her off. She smirked and retracted herself from his body before showing him her small happy smile. The moon enlightened her face and made her look like an angle while the wind blew her pink hair in her face and begin deer back. Her crop top raised and you cold see glimpses of her purple sports bra. The goosebumps were visible on her body.
She turned towards him and said "Sorry just had to get revenge." she laughed while he asked "Is that suppose to mean something?" she giggled while she ran away from him before he caught her waist and pulled the shrieking girl back to his body. "SSSHHHHH!" Sasuke said in her ear trying to quiet the girl that was laughing and shrieking.
"S-So...rry.." Sakura giggled while she turned into his body and rested in his arms before falling limp in his arms, he supported her unexpected weight before he sat on the ground and put her body on his lap and sat against a tree overlooking the whole village. It was beautiful all of the lights and stars and the girl in his arms.
Her head was leaned against his shoulder and chest while her eyes were closed. Before she fell asleep she whispered "Will.. This... Change when we meet up with Naruto... And the original Twelve?" she yawned and shifted in his lap.
"No... This isn't going to be changing for a while." Sasuke reinsured the tired girl before she drifted off with a small smile on her face. Sasuke smirked and held her hand for a good hour before he got up and gave her a piggy back ride to the house. After a ten minute walk he saw the lite up house.
He opened the door and went through the wooden frames. He avoided the chairs and tables in the kitchen while he made his way to the front room where Suigutsu and Karin were settled in arguing.
"Oh Sasuke-kun... Why'd you bring her back? She left! I thought ...you know ...we would just leave her and we would continue on. Just you and me!" Karin dreamed out loud with hearts in her eyes.
"No." Sasuke said while Karin grew angry and stood up. "What are you talking about Sasuke-Kun... You don't actually like this girl! There's no way in hell you like that pink headed bitch." Karin screeched while pointing at the yawning Sakura for emphasize.
"Huh?" Sakura asked with her right eyebrow raised while she jumped off of Sasuke's back. Karin lunged at her and Sakura didn't bother to move, Sasuke was about to push Karin back when Sakura's hand touched his arm and he knew she wanted to end it here and now with Karin, if she didn't she would never shut up.
Sakura ducked and let Karin fly above her crouched form, Sasuke was leaning against the door frame while Suigutsu was smirking and he whispered to Sasuke "The only thing that could make this better was if Sakura was in a swim suit... A-And... K-Karin wasn't here." Suigutsu got nervous when Sasuke growled at the mention of Sakura in a swim suit. Did he actually like this girl? Yeah she was beautiful... But the Uchiha had every girl all I've him most were beautiful, there was something different about her, she was strong, independent, but happy something they didn't see much.
Sakura flipped backwards dodging Karin's kick, and kicking Karin in the chin while flipping away, she landed in a normal stance waiting for Karin to make her move. She's not even attacking she's letting Karin do all the attacks and is purely dodging and playing off her mistakes.
Sakura waited for Karin to attack again, she saw the knifes she was readying and got ready to flip, sure enough Karin threw three sharp knives at Sakura and she did two handless front cartwheels and a back handspring, dodging all of the knives Karin had, before she appeared behind Karin and grabbed both of her swinging hands and kicked her feet out underneath her.
Sakura held her down for a minute until she stopped struggling. "listen, I have no intent to fight or kill you, but if you get in my way I will." Sakura said before releasing her and taking three steps back.
"Why?... Why are you nice to me! Why don't you beat me up or kill me! I've been nothing but a bitch to you!" Karin screetched angrily.
"Just because someone's being a bitch doesn't mean I kill them, I don't know what Orochimaru taught you, but I was taught to cope with people and see the best in them, I don't kill for fun, and I don't kill in less I have a reason. I have no reason to kill you, therefor I won't... Now if you fight my friends with the intent to kill them I will take you down without a second thought." Sakura said looking at Suigutsu and Karin.
"We won't be fighting the Konoha Ninja." Sasuke stated and Karin's jaw dropped but she got up and walked into her room before she screamed.
"Why?" Suigutsu asked.
"Because we'll be traveling with them to complete their mission and half of Sakura's, killing the Akatsuki, we all benefit from this, and after that I will return to the village; you and the others are free to do as you please afterwards." Sasuke said while he started walking towards the hallway where his room lead to.
"Your welcome in Konoha, with us. You have time to decide maybe meeting my friends will help that decision." Sakura offered and Suigutsu gaped at her kindness while the Uchiha glared from behind Sakura.
The pair walked down the hallway Sasuke in front and Sakura behind, Sasuke opened her door and Sakura sent him a questionable look, why was he entering my room? Sakura raised a delicate pink eyebrow at him while he sighed and pulled her into the room by her wrist.
"What are you doing?" Sakura asked while he pulled her into the room fully, and shut the door. Sasuke stopped pulling and slid his hand down from her wrist to her hand before he turned and placed his other hand on her neck and moved their intertwined hands up on his neck, he dropped her hand and she kept it on his soft pale skin.
Her face remained neutral while he did these actions, she didn't know whether to be shocked or happy that they were becoming... Something. She let a nervous smile cross her face while he stared at her in the moonlight. he leaned down and placed a light kiss on her lips unmoving and ignoring the desire to go farther.
When she started moving her lips against his indicating she wanted more he disappeared from her room, and reappeared in his own. He leaned against the door with a frown... What was she doing to him? He was growing attached to her, no, more than attacted... Addicted. She had become his addiction and emotions, wasn't that why he left the village to disconnect these connections... Ha now look where I am, I'm going back to the village with Sakura... My emotions are returning and I'm growing feelings for her.
He pushed off his door and paced in front of the bed before laying down, trying to comprehend all of his new feelings, he hadn't felt these emotions sense he was eight. Now he knew he liked Sakura, and she was his no one would touch her. Naruto... How would Naruto react to his return, to him and Sakura. Am i dating? Sakura now? Would I want to date Sakura?... Yes... I wouldn't want her with anyone else and she's the only one that makes me feel like this.
Many women have flaunted themselves towards him, some have even tried to touch his memeber, he never had been turned on in fact he had gotten annoyed or mad, but with Sakura he wanted nothing more than to do those things with her. He didn't believe this was just lust, he knew there was more; he just had to figure out what that more was.
Sasuke closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep while he thought about the future days events. He would see Naruto and all of the people he abandoned, somehow he didn't Think they would react like Sakura had, she had been a little bitchy but that's expected... I did leave her on a bench in the middle of the night. Naruto would probably try and beat him up, he would fight back; he wasn't going to lose all of his ego.
