AN: Hi guys! It has been a while since I last updated so I figured what better time than now? I hope you guys enjoy! Please review, follow, and favorite. The story is starting to get interesting, a lot of pressure on Sakura and Sasuke.
Sakura Pov
Unfortunately during breakfast the only other person there was my mother, everyone else is too busy by their own activities to come. Sasuke, Kasuka, and Itachi are training outside so they had an early breakfast. My father and Duke Uchiha are scheming about some venture, and lastly Duchess Uchiha and Rin are sleeping in. I haven't actually been alone with my mother to talk to her about the ceremony...or anything so I figure now may be a good time. She is talking about simple things right now like the weather and clothes, clearly trying to avoid all personal topics. I have never been very close with my mother, but since when has it been impossible to talk about anything that matters.
"Mother...did you have fun at the ceremony?" I ask trying to get close to the topic but not too close where it would scare her off.
"Oh it was beautiful. You and Sasuke must have had fun." Her tone was dark and almost angry. What on Earth can she be angry with me for? The whole comment was almost sarcastic in a way.
"What do you mean?" I ask trying to piece together my mother's passive aggressiveness.
"You and Sasuke were gone for a rather long time Sakura...alone. I thought you were better than that." She says looking at me straight in the eyes. There is no love just disappointment. She has never been very kind to be during my years, but to be so cold and assuming of something so small hurts me.
"Mother we were talking." I try to defend my honor and myself. Sasuke and I did do some things at the party, that is true, but we were nowhere close to having sex...if that is what she is implying.
"Of course Sakura, that's exactly what I told my parents when I was courting your father." She said slyly, no longer looking at me but the food on her plate.
"I'm still pure if that is what you mean." I confess, it isn't a lie and it may be the last day or so I can say so while telling the truth. I might as well defend my purity while I can.
"Well Sakura I'm full, be safe will you." My mother stood up and began to leave. I don't bother to stop her, what point is there? I am courting a duke, I am still honorable, and I finished all my education what more could she want from me? I will just never be up to par; Kasuka and Rin are just too favorable for her to even consider me. I guess what's the point of trying to stay a virgin if while I am one she just assumes the worst? Once she is out of the room I leave too, no point in staying to eat a meal alone.
I go back to my room; thankfully no maids are there so I can calm down and think things over. I just shiver thinking about the dream from last night; it was far too real. I hold my stomach thinking of all the blood and waste there was surrounding me. Sasuke and I have a numbered amount of days to produce this child and dreams like that will not help me feel confident in the matter. All the pressure is getting to me, even in my sleep. What will I do after Sasuke and I actually do have sex? The stress is going to be a million times worse. What will happen when I am actually pregnant and we try to speed up a wedding? What if we can't plan the wedding in time? This is far too much at risk, and I know Sasuke feels just as scared about he matter as I do, he just has too much pride to show it.
I hear a knock on the door, so when I turn around I see Sasuke closing the door behind him in his training clothes. He looks tired and beaten; he has scratches and bruises all along his chest and all the other patches of skin I can see.
"You look so tired Sasuke, was training ok?" I ask as he walks over to me and sits besides me on the bed.
"I'm fine, my head was just in a different place so I couldn't focus on your loud mouth brother who threw a few good punches in my direction." Sasuke retorted with a frown. Even if he says he's fine I can tell he has reached his limits, and from the looks of it not only his mental limits but his physical as well.
"You need to relax, if you don't soon Kasuka will get the best of you." I say as I wet a cloth to clean some of the dirt off his body. I sit behind him and wipe away some of the dirt off of his skin and clothes, but not for long because his hand stops me.
"I want tonight to be when we start." Sasuke repositions himself so he is facing me and holding the waist of my dress. I immediately know what he is talking about...tonight will be when we start trying to conceive. I know it is rushed and we have to start soon but I didn't expect it to be a day after the ceremony.
"Tonight? I thought we had more time." I look at Sasuke to see him playing with my hair. He clearly wants everything to be over and done with as quickly as possible.
"We don't. Tonight our parents are having a meeting and we will have some time to be alone...I will make it as perfect as I can Sakura, I promise." Sasuke tries his best to assure me everything is going to be ok. He kisses me and stands up from the bed, leaving me to look up at him.
"Sasuke before you go...I had a nightmare." I need to talk about it with him, I know I am simply being paranoid but it will give me piece of mind.
"Nightmare?" Sasuke questioned taking steps away from the door.
"I was pregnant...and I had a miscarriage. Sasuke there was blood everywhere, and you and Madara left me." Some tears began to fall as I reminisce about the horrors of what was last night's dream.
"It was just a dream Sakura." Sasuke, I have come to the grand realization, is awful in regards to comforting people, but this is a poor attempt even for him.
"Sasuke it was scary! Does it say nothing about our predicament? I for one, I don't know about you, am scared to death. I can't even sleep anymore." The tears from my eyes begin to fall at a much more rapid rate; I hate yelling, especially at Sasuke.
"I know we are scared, but I just realized the quicker it starts the quicker it's done." Sasuke stated bluntly. He has a very valid point, and it does suit his way of thinking...but not mine. I need everything to be mapped out, set up, and debated before I do anything. Tonight, when we have sex away from our parents, where's the safety in that? There is none, doesn't he see...there is no safety for us, not in any way.
"It's not safe." I fight back, it's not in my nature to be harsh and it certainly isn't me to fight with Sasuke. Sasuke sits back on the bed and kisses my forehead while bringing me closer to him.
"Sakura everything will be fine. I promise." Sasuke whispered as his kisses started to go down to my neck and chest.
"You can't promise that." Sasuke didn't even look up at me; he just continued to kiss my upper body not paying attention to anything I'm saying. I flinched away trying to regain his attention.
"No I can't, but I did. I will pick you up here for tonight, now please calm down and relax. I don't want tonight to be ruined because you are worried." Sasuke, for the second time, got up from my bed and walked towards the door. He looked back at me with his infamous smirk and I couldn't help but to smile. I love him, I really do. I feel we are caught in the middle of a rough patch, but we will pull though.
"Ok Sasuke." With that he left my room, closing the door behind him. I have no choice but to get ready for tonight, as pressured as it is I don't want to ruin it for Sasuke. I know he has wanted this for a long time, and if I ruin this for him I would be wrong. I have to remember I am doing this all for him and that the sacrifices are worth it at the end of the day.

I left Sakura's room as quickly as possible, no good would come from us fighting the same day I want us to start having sex. I know she is worried but she has to buck up and move past it. She will not only regress in all the ways she has grown since our meeting, but I will regress back with her. You are only as strong as the person you are tied to, and that's the truth.
I walk to see my father and Itachi strolling down the halls of the Harunos talking about who knows what. The two of them see me leave Sakura's room, and I know it is now the brewing before a storm.
"Sasuke what were you doing?" My father looked at me with his usual frown that is indented on his face. Itachi gave me a smile, but underneath you could see the worry.
"I was just talking to Sakura." I state smoothly. It's the truth, they can second-guess me all they want but they can't fight me. If they catch me tonight it may be a different story, but right now I am telling the truth.
"Hn. When are we setting up that wedding anyways? Lord Haruno and I have been talking, and we want you two married quickly before there is all the publicity of you being the heir to the throne." My father stated, clearly mapping some type of plan out in his head.
"Soon." Was the only response I could muster. If Sakura becomes pregnant soon, we can start planning in maybe a month or so. Sakura and I just have to be positive she is with child, after that they can plan the wedding whatever way they want. It does give me some confidence, since they want the wedding to happen quickly as well. There will be no questions when Sakura and I make it for as soon as possible.
"When you are ready let us know. I know it is scary thinking of tying yourself down, but Sakura is a good girl. She will give you everything you want little brother...if she hasn't already." Itachi chimed in with a small laugh. He clearly is trying to lighten the situation. I don't like his assumption of Sakura, but it will go under the radar, no point in starting more fights today.
"Hn. When is your wedding coming up then Itachi? I do know you have been engaged now for a couple of months. I'm the one hearing it about marriage, but Sakura and I aren't even engaged." I state boldly. Itachi has been engaged to this princess for forever, when is he going to tie the knot?
"Ah, Sasuke this conversation is about you." Itachi joked with a laugh. He has always known how to get out of sticky situations. I wish I had that skill, I somehow always find myself in more than what I bargain for.
"I'm going to talk with Lord Haruno. Sasuke I want the wedding to be soon, ask the damn girl for her hand." After that my father strolled off with Itachi behind him. It helps to know that the wedding can be arranged quickly...and it also gives me a good idea for later. I could feel my usual smirk grow on my face, now it is just time to get everything I need for this idea to become a reality.

Sasuke and I never arranged a specific time for when he is supposed to come get me; he just said he would come pick me up. I don't know when our parents have this meeting, so all I can do is wait in my room until he comes. I took a fresh bath, curled my hair, put on a pretty dress (even though it won't be on for long), so I could feel as confident as possible. I try my best to not go over how badly this can turn in my head, since once we do it the pan starts rolling. I'm so nervous, I have butterflies in my stomach and I feel lightheaded, it is almost the same feeling I felt when the Uchihas just arrived at our house for the first time...the first time I saw Sasuke. Who would have ever guessed we would be here? Courting, Sasuke in line for the throne, forced pregnancies, and a rushed wedding. We almost sound like a play you would watch in one of those fancy houses.
I pace back and forth in my room until in the small carpet around my bed has an indent in its shape from my feet. Finally, after what seems to be forever, Sasuke walks into my room with a huge smirk on his face. He has on his white training shirt, the one that is open in the chest, and his riding pants. I feel over dressed and yet to me he is still the one who looks perfect. I really am so lucky; every girl would die to be here. Sasuke Uchiha, the man everyone wants and no one has, except now I have him. I remember when my mother told me about him before they arrived, how he is almost like a celebrity in court, how he is so perfect he looks fake. I stand and look at Sasuke and the butterflies start again, its like as if I have never seen him before.
"You are blushing." Sasuke walks in, with a now bigger smirk. I touch my face now feeling the pink in my cheeks; I didn't realize I was that transparent.
"I-I'm sorry." I utter, causing Sasuke to darkly chuckle. I don't know why, but I just can't get myself together.
"You really are nervous. Come on, we aren't staying in here." Sasuke starts to pull me out of my room and towards the door.
"We aren't?" I ask as he pulls us both out of my room and into the hallway.
"We are going somewhere different. Just follow me." Sasuke walks around several hallways and into a room I have never been before. There is a bed and it is very clearly a boy's room.
"Who's room is this?" I ask as I take a few steps in to look around. I see swords and training boots, so before he even answers I know.
"Mine. I figured there is a less chance of someone coming here than your room. You have that maid Aimi is it? She seems to make unexpected visits and we can't risk that." Sasuke says as he closes and locks the doors behind us. I hear the door shut and a new rise of anxiety rushes through me. It is now officially time, and I can't do anything to get out of it.
"You thought this through." I am impressed; he did give this more thought than I thought he would.
"I don't want it to be ruined." Sasuke now walks closer to me, causing me to walk back against the bed. I look back to see the bed and all the sheets and pillows in perfect order, but when I look back to Sasuke he takes his pointer finger and pushes me to fall to the bed.
Once I fall against the bed I look up to see Sasuke untying the piece of string that keeps his shirt together. He undoes the whole knot and the fabric starts to drape over his shoulders, and with some movement the shirt slips right off. All I can do during this is just stare, I don't know what to do or what to say. The best I can do is just wait until he makes all the moves of action on his own. Sasuke takes a few strides until his waist is at my level, since he is not on the bed.
"Take off my pants." Sasuke demands as he takes my hands and starts pressing them against the rib of fabric. All I can do is stay frozen to where he placed me.
"Hn. Then I will take off your dress." Sasuke put a knee on the bed and starts to move closer to me as if he is about to pounce. I squirm a bit to give us some room but he keeps filling the void between us.
"S-Sasuke I-" I don't even get to finish because Sasuke kisses me roughly as he lays me sprawled against the bed. We continue to kiss even though I feel Sasuke tugging at the top of my dress. We only do this for a bit until I feel my dress slide off of my shoulders and the fabric lower under my chest. I look down to see my whole chest exposed and the dress to continue falling until it is off of my body. Sasuke threw the dress to the floor as I quickly try to cover myself with my hands. The only thing left on my body is the petticoat from the dress; my breasts and stomach are all out so that is where I focus my protection. Sasuke gives me a frown and snickers darkly.
"Stop hiding I want to see you." Sasuke pulls my hands off of my chest leaving everything for him to see. I can feel my cheeks turn the color of my hair, as he looks me over. His eyes have this seriousness in them they almost look hungry.
"Sasuke why are you making a face?" I am getting self-conscious now as I try to hide my body from his view.
"You have more than I expected." As he says that his hands grip my breast as a reference. My body shakes from the unknown touch and I look away from embarrassment. I never expected him to say something like that. Sasuke chuckles and moves my chin so I am looking at him.
"It's a good thing Sakura." He kisses me again, but slowly works his way down to my breasts. He gropes my breasts harder, until his mouth reaches one. My body starts to have a life of its own as I feel heat rush down to my core. A small moan escapes my lips as a reaction to his sucking.
Sasuke looks up at me and kisses me again with more passion and want, all his actions start to become rigid and rough from desire. He straightens me up back to be eye level with his waist and he puts my hands back to where they were before.
"Take them off." I feel a rush of confidence go through me as my hands slowly pull down the fabric from his lower half. I try my best to be gentle and slow, he took my dress of with such precision so I try to mimic his style. Once his pants are off he is fully naked himself and more heat rushes to my core and face. His member is large and very erect. I can't imagine that inside of me, it would rip me into two. I look up to see Sasuke have the widest smirk I have ever seen him make.
"Sasuke how will that fit inside of me?" I ask nervously, I can't fathom his member being able to fit.
"It will hurt for a second, but it will get better I promise." Sasuke picked me up so now we are both eye level with each other kneeling. Sasuke's fingers slide over my petticoat and start to pull the last piece of fabric on either of us down.
"I'm nervous." I stammer. Each word is becoming harder to say as my body is starting to feel hot, bothered, and nervous.
"It will be fine." Sasuke, I can tell, has a harder time than I do when it comes to speaking.
The petticoat is now off and we are both completely naked. Sasuke lays me down and separates my legs as he kisses me. I can feel his member on my thigh and I can feel my own core become very hot and ready. I no longer want to wait; I want him to enter me now.
"I'm going to start." Sasuke states as he looks at me for permission.
"Sasuke please go." I beg as the wait starts to become unbearable.
I feel Sasuke slowly enter me and go deeper and deeper in. He was right it is painful, I feel like I piece if me is being torn away.
"You are so fucking wet." Sasuke now starts to thrust at a faster speed than before. It hurts immensely at first, but slowly it becomes so unbelievably pleasurable. His hips thrust faster and faster to the point I feel a knot in my core. I moan out of pleasure as I hear him grunt from moving his hips. My body works on its own, and my hips start to have a life of their own. Our hips are now working together at the same speed to push him in deeper and deeper. I start to feel the knot in my stomach release; I am coming to my climax.
"Sasuke." I cry out as I can feel myself reaching my limit. The knot in my core breaks and my point of ecstasy is fulfilled. Quickly after my I feel Sasuke's thrusts become frantic and rough.
"Shit Sakura." Sasuke moans as he comes to his climax. I feel the warm liquid inside of me, and now I feel a bit relieved that a part of the plan has been executed (and with such pleasure).
Sasuke pulls himself out and rolls next to me as we both pant trying to catch our breath, as our bodies are hot and sweaty.
"I love you." I whisper as I crawl into his chest, laying my body in the curve of his.
"Hn. I love you too." Sasuke gets up from the bed and goes into his cabinet. He pulls out a small box and walks back over to the bed. He kneels down and puts his weight against the piece of furniture and opens the box. I look to see a ring.
