Chapter 2: Visit
A.N : Chapter 2 will threat of SS resolution Character thought ( ) Bold : Inner Sakura .
The resolution will be Sakura center because she's the one having feeling for Sasuke, the manga never show him caring about her. And I want her to be strong as her character, not return to her 12 years old self. That's why she got a little fun with Sasuke for those who find it too Sakura centric. She's the one who needed closure. Sasuke never shown affection for her up to 698 so this chapter is lighter, I must admit. Enjoy :)
Sakura wake up earlier this morning. Today will be a big day. She couldn't help it but wanted to know why Naruto would have said those word. Maybe Sasuke told him to tell her that. That is what she thought at 1st but he should know that having Naruto recited those words won't make any difference. They have to come from the heart. But then again, since when Sasuke knew anything so personal about her. She had to go ask him before the ceremony begin. Today will be the day where the leaf honor their fallen ninja. She finish dressing up before leaving home. The ceremony will be in 2 hours so she had to make this quick. She needed to know.
She arrived at the temporary holding cell facility. They didn't send Sasuke and the rest straight to prison. The Kages will take their decision at the new summit in 3 days. It was her 1st visit alone since Sasuke's been in a cell. Normally, Naruto goes with her and he's the most talkative of the three, so the conversation might been awkward in her mind. At least since Kabuto, Orochimaru and Taka were the first prisoner they've got since the pain attack, they each have their own cell. Each of them is separate, so the prisoner can't communicate with the others and they got chakra sealing handcuff. Of course, Kabuto could break free by using sage mode, but he's the one who felt the most guilt among the group. After all, he was one of the main enemy during the war. All these deaths were in his hand, in his mind.
After checking up to the anbu she finally arrive to Sasuke cell. They open the door and let Sakura in.
"Hi Sasuke-Kun"
"Hmm... Naruto is sick?"
"No he didn't know I was coming here today. And yeah I'm doing well."
"Great, me too"
"I have a question for you, I want you to answer it with the best of your knowledge ok."
"Fine."
"Do you remember the day when we first become a team, we were both sitting on that bench. You said something to me, would you mind repeat it to me please."
"Come on Sakura, that was a long time ago, we were kid."
"Don't be shy, I just want you to tell me with the best of your knowledge."
"Pfft . You're annoying."
"I just want the truth."
"Well that's the truth, I said to you that you're annoying and something about you being worst than Naruto."
"Nothing else?"
"Nothing else"
"And you never talk to Naruto about me during the war in any form." ( Great Sakura, now you're being paranoid)
"Not at all, why would I?"
"Told ya"
"Ok, thanks Sasuke, I think that answer my question."
"Good, for a moment I was afraid you ask me if I love you"
"I love you Sasuke, but like family, I'm not into you anymore."
"Since when?"
"I don't know, HOW MANY TIME HAVE YOU TRIED TO KILL ME?"
"Listen, I've already apologize for that."
"You didn't, you last apology was for the way you threat me and Kakashi-sensei during the war. You never say sorry for trying to kill you."
"Tsk... you right. Well I told you I'm not so good at this. Well... I'm sorry."
"I'll accept it after you do as I tell."
"I guess" (Damn it, what with that devious smile, that can't be good)
"I want you to close your eye and DON'T MOVE."
"What is on your mind?"
"You'll see."
"ok ok, do it quick." (Getting one of her punch without my chakra will probably kill me I don't want to...WTF)"
What Sasuke feel was Sakura lips on his.
"Well, now we can say that all of the member of team 7 kiss each other. Who would believe that my 2 teammate got their 1st kiss together before kissing me. And though I still find you handsome, I didn't feel anything during this kiss. I needed to make sure I am over you. Oh and don't dream, this is the only time my lips will met yours." said a winking Sakura
"Don't bring up that incident again, said Sasuke shivering at the thought of kissing Naruto. His 2nd kiss was definitely better than the 1st but he think that she don't need to know that."
"Good, before I leave I wanted to know one last thing."
"Don't you think I did enough, I mean you asked you're question, you kissed me. Shouldn't you just accepted my apology?"
"You're at 2 favor for 3 murder attempt."
"Fine, fine what is it?"
"Did something happen to you before we met that day, on the bench?"
Sasuke tried to think hard until he remember getting jumped by Naruto and his clone and get tied up. That was an embarrassing memory, because he was the genius and Naruto was the dead last and he manage to hit an ambush on him. Nobody knew about that.
"Nothing happen."
"Something did happen then? Don't lie to me Sasuke."
"Narutosuccessfullyambushmeantiemeup"
"What was that?"
"Naruto Successfully ambush me and tie me up."
Sakura couldn't help but have a little laugh because for the 1st time, she saw Sasuke embarrass for something. Plus who would have known that Naruto back then could ambush Sasuke.
"Alright that's is all I need to know. And don't worry, your secret is safe with me, as long as you won't tell mine."
"Which is?"
"Already told you, all member of team 7, except sensei of course have lip lock. The only thing is that Naruto don't know that yet. And by that I don't mean ours."
"Oh."
"I've got to go, the ceremony will begin soon and Sasuke, I accept your apology and I'm glad to have you back."
"Thanks and Sakura, you look nice in that black dress."
"Thank you Sasuke . You see, giving a compliment to a girl once in a while won't kill you. Plus it doesn't mean she'll go all fangirl mode on you for it."
Sakura then exit from Sasuke's cell and close the door. She did got some answer but still got some question. How to explain that other Sasuke? Another time girl, you don't want to show up late today.
Next chapter is called grieving
