After Kakashi left , Sakura was getting ready to go to bed , she was so tired and very exhausted , she pulled out her pajamas , a medium size pink t-shirt and a pair of pink shorts , as soon as her head hit the pillow she heard a knock on the door. -Sasuke I completely forgot he was coming-.
She grabbed one of the pillows and placed it on her face so that she could muffle the scream of desperation she felt for the lack of rest she could not accomplish .
"Agh! I'm way too tired" she spoke under her pillow.
-Maybe if I ignore him he'll go away-
Knock knock knock!
-Or not-
She decided after 2 minutes of constant knocking to get up and open the door for the Uchiha, The look she faced once she open the door was the face of a man that looked nothing like Sasuke, well at least of the Sasuke she was so used to, the Sasuke with no feelings , arrogant with evil chakra was not here, he got replaced by a man that looked worried, a man that seemed was expecting something and most importantly he looked afraid, afraid of rejection maybe.
"Sakura… sorry I was late… I had a small complication. I hope you are still waiting for me…"
He said it like if he meant some different type of waiting but Sakura quickly put those thoughts to the side and gave him the fakest smile possible.
"Sasuke…It's kind of late don't you think? I had a very rough afternoon and I'm very tired…besides I still have to meet up with Gaara in the mor—"-Damn Kakashi- Sasuke thought
"Please Sakura…(he interrupted) this is important"-It must be. Is very un-Sasuke like to ask…he usually just demands-
"Ok"
Sakura stepped aside to let him in, and with a soft click Sasuke closed the door behind him..
-Sitting here in front of him makes me feel many things, but the strongest of those feelings are not good ,its anger. Anger because it was his choices what took a very gentle soul from this world, It was him who chosed to be an avenger, It was him who chosed to leave the village and his friends to join that damn snake, It was him who chosed to severed the bonds we had-.
-And because of those choices… Itachi also made his choice, He choosed die to save him. What Itachi did not foresaw… was us…falling in love with each other was not a choice neither of us had, it just happened. I never felt so much anger in my life… not even towards Orochimaru…why?-
"Sakura" -Those eyes-
"Ok…You have something to say …so let's go to the balcony "
He nodded, she walked to the balcony with Sasuke following behind her, and she strongly believed that once outside the desire to punch a hole through his chest will fade away if she looked towards a certain shiny star. -Itachi would kill me if I made him have a family reunion- she thought darkly.
"You been avoiding me" it was a statement not a question.
"I been very busy at work an-"
"You been avoiding me" he said again cutting her off "why?"
"Sasuke" -Damn it…why do you have to be so damn direct-.
"Like I said … I been busy , besides why should you care?"
Sasuke was feeling what he never felt before, nervousness, butterflies, he was terrified. He tried very strongly to keep his composure and remain as stoically normal as possible in front of her. Because the feeling he was receiving from her was not something a friend should be feeling, it was something a person feels in a battle field …against an enemy. -Sakura sees me as an enemy-.
He truly could not blame her… he did try to kill her…
"Sakura …I need to tell you the reason why I did not stay with you…and why I did not let you join me all those years ago"
He walked closer to her and turned to face her, she was not looking at him ,she was looking up at the sky when he started talking.
"Go ahead I won't interrupt…but I honestly don't see the poi-"
"Please Sakura…hear me" he cut her off again.
She turned to face him because she was curious to know what those reasons were, this man decided to leave them (her) behind all those years ago, not that she loved him still, that much she knew, but maybe hearing a little from him would ease the pain and anger she felt towards him, maybe she could try to understand his point of view. -Besides I promised Kakashi-Sensei I would try to be his friend again, and I'll do it for Itachi as well-.
His hands were tucked away in his pockets , hiding the shakiness he was feeling, all the same also he was remembering his reasons, his reality his choices.
"You have to know that my search for power was always my main goal at the time ( he paused to look at her reactions) those never changed, I needed to become strong enough to kill my brother because of what I tough he did, time passed and I meet you guys, Naruto and you, so I pretended many times that the strength I had was enough… I was content at the time… I got comfortable…the bonds I was forming with team 7 seemed enough at the time ( he sighed) Until that day…I felt powerless to protect Naruto -to protect YOU-against my brother or Orochimaru."
He closed his eyes and she could have sworn she saw tears forming before he closed them.
"It was the same way I felt the day I saw my parents dead …lying right under his feet… -so I couldn't pretend anymore Sakura-(he tough to himself) I needed power but…(He took a step closer to her) when you asked me to stay …(he opened his eyes) to be with you…I hesitated…y-you were in love with an idea of me…you never really knew who I WAS…but I knew…I knew if I stayed or if I allowed you to come along with me…I would have become the worst part of you…at that moment Sakura I could not love you because I did not know how to, my heart was blinded with hate ( he closed his eyes again) and I still…still don't know how to love I sitill can't understand my feelings...but I do know that I need to fix my friendship with you,at least foor now"
The last words were almost a whisper but she heard them right.
"The important thing is Sasuke that I know you can't love …why are you here…telling me all of this?"
"Why do you care what I think?" she whispered .
She slowly backed away from him, folding her arms to her chest and returning her eyes to the sky.
"I mean… it's been a long time Sasuke … I don't harbor those feelings anymore"
It was really hard for her to be in front of him, the only reason she avoided any contact with the Uchiha was because she blamed him. Deep down she just wanted to be angry at him because anger kept her away from going insane from grief. But now everything was different, everything was changing.
She stood there listening to him , he told her how much regret he felt for killing his brother, how much it pained him to know the truth, how much the truth devastated him to the point he felt obliged to take revenge on all of Konoha, at that confession Sakura stiffen, than she noticed Sasuke closing distance on them, grabbing a hold on both her arms, keeping his onyx eyes locked on her emerald ones.
"I made the correct choice than (he assured her noting why she worried), I followed a path my brother would have approved of… after all everything he did he did do it for Konoha, he was a shinobi of the leaf…. So I settled for killing Danzo and removed Shisui's eye from his corpse,(Only Sasuke would say that and make it sound normal) but that was all I did (sighs) I stopped looking for revenge Sakura, and I decided to mend the bonds I broke"
-It won't be that easy Sasuke…I can forgive … but I can't forget-.
"I understand Sasuke, Naruto…he will always be there for you, you know… he never gave up on you…"
He let go of her stepping away from her.
"And you…what about you Sakura, I want to know the truth…I don't expect you to love me still… at least not after all I have done to you and Naruto ( and Itachi Sakura thought) but be honest as to why you been avoiding me all of this time, why you have so much hate towards me"
"I don't hate you Sasuke"she lied a little -At least not that much anymore after all you said.-
"Than what is it" he asked
Sakura knew that she could not tell him about her relationship with Itachi, after all Sasuke is a prodigy and it would not take long at putting 2 and 2 together, she needs to prioritize her baby, and think of ways to protect it from Orochimaru.
Sasuke interrupted her thoughts "Are you seeing anyone?" -what?- She deadpanned.
He smirked " Don't give me that look Sa-ku-ra, I saw Kakashi…Is it him? Is he the one not letting you talk to me? Is he insecure of you still care for me?"
Suddenly the Sasuke she knew came back , the arrogant Uchiha he's always been was back, and his face was a breath away from hers, so close she could feel his breathing hovering on her lips, as he held his delicate fingers on her chin, he held her there for what seemed a very long time. -Oh Gods …I can't move-.
And as he got closer and closer to her he closed his eyes and then-.
"Traitor!"
-Sai ?thank God !- Sakura was very grateful of the interruption
Sai drooped down from what seemed to be one of his ink summons, interrupting the kiss that was left frozen and forgotten on the air.
With the fake smile on his lips he said "Dickless is looking for you ( he looked at Sakura than back at Sasuke) am I interrupting something?"
"No""yes" they both answered in unison.
"No" Sakura repeated "we are done talking ( emphasizing thee DONE she looked at Sasuke) and from now on everything will go back to normal Sasuke… I promised Kakashi… he WANTS me to help you cope trough your loss…because he cares for the dynamics of the team and he knows it hasn't been that long since YOU KILLED Itachi"
She hadn't meant for her last sentence to sound so harsh, but she couldn't help it, she was angry because how dare he try to kiss her.
Sasuke felt the bitterness and anger at the sound of her voice when she said that. So he couldn't bear to keep looking at her angry gaze. It felt accusatory . It made him feel like trash. Like if he took something precious from her. And that confused him, so he left without saying another word.
"So it seems like I DID interrupted something"
Thankful for the interruption Sakura couldn't help but to hug her savior, which caused Sai to stiffen a little at the sudden touch.
"No Sai … you were just in time"
Sai knew the interruption was no accident, the moment he spotted the two while guarding the perimeter he was assigned to ,he couldn't help but help his friend out. He noticed the way her shoulders tensed at the contact of the Uchiha's grasp , and her facial expression was not the one of a woman that is happy of being touched, clearly the traitor had no clue of the discomfort she was feeling . And by all means he was not going to just stand there and allow it.
"That's what friends are for ugly" the soft smile he gave her was by all means sincere… after all it has always been her who helps him to understand about emotions. "Good night Sai"
And with that Sai left, and Sakura was finally able to go to bed hoping to dream about a very shirtless Ithachi Uchiha.
XxX
It was 3 in the morning when Sakura's belly started to grumble. She tossed and turned trying to ignore the hunger she felt. She was having such a pleasant dream and did not wanted to wake from it. She was in a beach enjoying her day, helping a small one year old boy to build sand castles, and failing miserably at it, that is until a shadow of a men she couldn't recognized knelt down beside them to help them. And she suddenly could not keep ignoring the hunger she felt and woke up to reality.
-Baby must be hungry- . She thought with excitement.
So she got up and walked towards the kitchen -Everything is dark, everyone must be asleep, I'll try not to make much noise- She didn't bother to turn on the light because she didn't wanted anyone to star questioning her eating habits.
"I see you can't sleep either"
A cold stoic voice was speaking to her from the side were the dinning table was at, it sounded like Sasuke kind of, with the difference that this one was more relaxed and less arrogant.
She was so surprised by the sudden voice in the room that she accidentally dropped the bottle of juice she was holding in her hand.
"Oh…sorry Gaara-Sama I didn't know you were here"
She crouched to pick up the bottle she had dropped, it was so dark as the fridge door closed she couldn't see anything ,but yet she still tried to reach for the juice, she was surprised when instead of touching a cold bottle she felt warm long fingers, and then she noticed that Gaara had reached for the juice as well. Maybe he was trying to help her?
Gaara silently thanked Kami for the fact that the kitchen lights were off, the bright pink blush he had on his pale skin at the contact of her hands on his would have been very noticeble.
He suddenly broke the silence of the room as he noticed she was not moving.
"Um..Sorry I scared you and made you drop this"
They were both in a crouching position. Suddenly Sakura noticed she was not moving and tried to fix that in the most awkwardly way possible . -Why am I so damn nervous-.
"That's ok thanks" she said letting go of his hand and taking the juice instead . As they both tried to get up in the darkness, Sakura's forehead and Gaara's nose collided followed by a soft "ugh" coming of course from the poor Kazekage.
"Oh God Gaara I'm sorry …here let me—"
"It's ok I think we should turn on the lights before we move again"
-Of course …how stupid of me…he has his sand shield-
Sakura felt a little relieved and less guilty at the realization and quickly moved towards the on switch, and when she turned around and saw a very much bleeding Gaara her body went cold. -Oh God I'll definitely get executed for assaulting the Kazekage in the kitchen….So much for ultimate defense-
"Oh my God Gaara !...you are bleeding…I-I'm so sorry ( she walked up to him) here let me"
Her hands glowed green and she was healing his poor abused nose. Once her work was done she stepped back while offering him a hand to help him up. Not that he needed it but he took it either way. And that's when she saw him. Really really saw him.
-Why are his cheeks red …is ..Is he blushing?-
"Um…Sakura-san y- you um" than he pointed at her .
"My what?" she asked in confusion . When she looked at herself reality hit her like a ton of bricks.
She was in such a hurry to grab a bite to eat that she forgot to put her shorts on …Sakura had removed them to go to bed..And now she was in the kitchen in front of the Kazekage wearing nothing but a pink T-shirt. It was long enough to cover her panties but it still was very revealing.
She quickly tried covering up by pulling it down a little bit but all it did was reveal more of her top . -God! Oh!-
She couldn't look at him , what was he going to say or think?. Sure she wasn't expecting anyone to be up as late as her in the kitchen , much less the Kazekage.
Lost in her thoughts she did not notice the extra warmth that was embracing her. It felt fluffy and it smelled like cinnamon and ocean. -Hummm … is this his robe?...yes it is Gods he smells so good-. Quickly Sakura put those thoughts away and sheepishly vowed and thank him for his mercy towards her, it seemed that her night was becoming more complicated than before.
Gaara just stood there , looking at her, not really knowing what to say or do. So he opted for the first thing that crossed his mind he had to break the awkwardness of the moment.
" Juice is better when fresh from an orange"
Sakura looked at him thankful for the way he was avoiding a very embarrassing situation.
"Yes..I was just really hungry Gaara-Sama" she blurred out still looking at the floor and not at him.
"Gaara…remember I told you to just call me Gaara?" he said while sitting down at the dinning table.
Sakura followed "Gaara… ok but you also have to drop the San…it's only fair"
He agreed by nodding and giving her something that looked like an almost smile.
She tried to keep the conversation going so that no more weird awkwardness would be bound to happen again.
"I thought that you could sleep now that you no longer host the Shukaku"
Gaara stood up walking to the fridge pulling out what seemed like Ham , eggs and cheese. "yeah, but it's hard to stay asleep for longer that a couple of hours…it's like my body reacts and wakes itself up… so I come here instead…I used to go up top of the tower but someone was there already" he said coyly.
Sakura took note if that , maybe she could give him some pointers to help him sleep better or perhaps whip him up something to prolong his sleep. That's when the most exquisite smell hit her nostrils and she noticed Gaara was cooking something hummmmm it smelled so good she was almost drooling.
"What are you cooking?..You know Gaara eating will not help you sleep any better."
"It's not for me…it's for you" at this she raised an eyebrow.
"You said you were hungry and I have no desire to sleep"
What surprised her the most was the fact that now that she thought about it, she never held a fluid conversation with him for longer than 5 minutes . And most of it was just to deliver info from her Shishou and that was just done twice recently during the war.
And yet here she was ,having a conversation with the Kazekage of Suna after almost killing him with her forehead, after she almost flashed him as well and now he was cooking for her…shirtless…-oh gods he's not wearing a shirt!...Well he did lend me his robe…but omgomgheisnotwearingashirt! He is half naked!-
Sakura was silently panicing "Y-you…y-you don't have to do that…thank you very much"
He turned to look at her and he noticed she was suddenly turning very red -maybe she is getting a fever?- So when he placed her plate in front f her and reached over to place his palm over her forehead he could have sworn he heard a squeak sound coming from her.
Sakura was beyond embarrassed but when Gaara asked her if she was coming down with a fever and if she felt ok, she managed to calm down a bit, she said no and thanked him again for the very delicious meal she was devouring. Forgetting the fact he was half naked just for a bit she couldn't help but notice he was actually a very good cook.
And that's why she could not stop the next words that escaped her mouth.
"Mmmm…this…this is so good Gaara"
He found he liked that expression she held on her eyes and he nodded.
"Aa"
"So (she swallowed) what is this dish called?"
"Omelet…Temari usually makes it in the mornings, but she uses all kinds of ingredients…I prefer it simple…just ham and cheese" she smiled.
"It's perfect…I could eat this everyday for the rest of my life" she closed her mouth rather fast noting the implications of her comment before she could stop herself the words were already out. Her morning or night whichever it was, was turning very tiring…so she tried to fix it.
"You should give me the recipe" –yeah way to go Sakura-
He only nodded yes and let her eat in a comfortable silence, once she was finished he remembered there was something he wanted to tell her.
"Sakura… I never thanked you properly and I want to do it now" when pale blue orbs meet with light green emerald Gaara saw a flash back of the first day he meet her came to his mind, Even though he was trying to kill her teammate at the time, he took the time to look at those beautiful eyes .those eyes held determination and fire.
"And I also would like to apologize"
-Apologize?-
"I…I don't understand Gaa-"
"When we first meet ( he interrupted and lifts a finger as if telling her he was not done)I almost killed you…and I-I never apologized for that… the second time I saw you…you were helping with my rescue and saved Kankuro's life…I never …thanked you"
It was true, but to her that did not matter anymore. So much had happened since and now… now they were friends… if it wasn't for Gaara Naruto would be dead…It was him who hurried and brought him to her so she could keep him alive.
"You don't need to Gaara, we are friends, and that's what friends do…besides…You are not the only friend I have that has tried to kill me"
-Really?- He never could have believed that a friend of hers would ever tried to harm her, she must be lying just so he could feel better.
As if predicting his thoughts Sakura said. "Sasuke tried to kill me... twice... when he wanted to avenge his clan and kill his brother…it was when I got rescued, the first time Kisame interfered and the second it was Itachi himself…Itachi was letting him know I was just a prisoner…but it's not like Sasuke cared or was there to rescue me…no not at all…he was there to complete his purpose…I was there just by chance and than the rest of team Kakashi was there to take me with them….so I could not do anything about it …I tried I really did "
Suddenly Gaara felt like she was no longer talking to him …but to her own self. He kept quiet and just listened, she looked so sad, her shiny eyes turned to a dark green .no life was there, as if she was in so much pain.
She noticed she was saying more that she should, so she stood up and picked up her dishes tossing them in the sink to wash them.
"And Naruto did too (she paused and looked at him ) don't give me that look Gaara…It was when he had no control over Kurama"( by then she was done with the dishes) "look" she said to him while pulling down the borrowed robe he gave her showing him the scar on her left arm "see?"
"Naruto…did ..This? And you don't care?" he was very surprised and that hardly never happened .
"Yes, just like with you…at the time you had Shukaku going nuts…and …stupid me ran in front of you… getting in the way… but I am telling you all this because I want you to know it's ok…so don't worry …you are forgiven if that is easy for you…ok"
"Aa"
When she finished with the conversation she thanked him and excused herself back to her room, letting him know that she had a very important appointment with the Kazekage and he would not be pleased if she stood him up because she could not wake up on time.
He nodded and found himself somewhat sleepy as well."Good night Sakura"
"Night Gaara" and they both left to their respective rooms.
THENEXTDAY
"Come in"
After the night of their encounter in the kitchen, Gaara got back to his room, he was very surprised he felt relaxed and very sleepy.
He could not help but keep thinking about a pink hair kunoichi.
FLASHBACK
As he lay in his bed his gaze remains on the window. The night seems calm and the stars are shining more than ever before, he feels entranced by the way the moon is shining , and his thoughts go back to the meeting he held with the leaf ninja.
Thoughts of the moment he was looking at Sakura as she was touching her belly right after Kakashi asked Sasuke about his sex life kept invading his mind. At that moment he gave no importance to the way she looked, or the way her eyes somber, or the way her chakra flared. Although he did worried when he noticed both of his siblings were looking her direction as well.
Temari had a concerned expression and that was very unusual for her, while Kankuro's held a mixture of awe and some anger.
All of the Sabaku siblings held feelings of friendship and gratitude towards Sakura, even though she never knew how much they appreciated her, she had no idea how much she helped them in great ways, which was the reason he was concerned as well.
But tomorrow was another day, and he was looking to have another amusing conversation with said kunoichi
END OF FLASHBACK
"Gaara…good morning" the kunoichi that was invading his thoughts lately just walked in the door, and her smile was nice and soft as she greeted him. And he appreciated that very much silently wishing to see more often of that very same smile every day… but he put those thoughts in the back of his mind and answered.
"Morning Sakura… I believe you slept well?" He did not smile ,only a nod was given, but somewhere in her mind Sakura knew he was glad of seeing her when she walked in…she schooled herself for that .
Gaara did not need to say anything else, keeping his eyes on hers he was thinking so much of her and he did not understood why.
"Yeas thank you again Gaara, I hope you won't forget giving me that recipe"
She walked closer to his desk to take the seat in front of him.
"Aa " he replied.
"Gaara…what do you need me doing here that requires my stay for a whole year?" she suddenly asked
"After the war I noticed the lack of medic-nins in the field, and the ones we had lacked knowledge. In this times of peace I think is best as much as it is important to prepare by training as best as we can our medical corps, not to mention I need every shinobi to know at least the basics on healing , and the best to accomplish that would be you or Shizune-San."
He waited for her to reply but since she said nothing he kept going.
"Of course we personally requested for you because we know YOU are the best ,and we know you, you are our friend"
Sakura was very thankful for the request, not only because he gave her a major boost by praising her abilities but this opportunity will keep her away from Konoha until her baby is born, she was happy because she held dear feelings for the Sabaku siblings.
"Thank you for your trust Gaara I will do my best"
Sakura was feeling good about herself, she was getting acknowledged by one of the strongest Kages of the shinobi world. He is very honest ,she was sure he would not lie just to make her feel good.
Sakura and Gaara were discussing the duties she was going to have at the Suna Hospital, he discussed her pay, and she tried to rebottle it because she thought it was too high, not even in Konoha she was getting paid as much, and here in Suna she was not even going to pay rent. Of course Gaara was having none of it, He also informed her once the Orochimaru mission was completed and team Kakashi was dismissed to Konoha she would be moving to the same floor the siblings were residing .
She agreed to all those terms. The discussion turned to her dear old Akatsuki friends. He informed her he had gotten in contact with Nagato, and Nagato will get in touch with them as soon as possible, he apologized not to be able to come, but as Rain's official Kage he could not leave, but he will send something for Sakura none the less.
And for the time being her teammates will meet with them to star locating Orochimaru's hideouts, that way they can track him before Kabuto meets with Gaara just as a precaution in case kabuto wants to deceit them.
At the sound of the name of that damn snake Sakura tensed, she was very relieved when the conversation got interrupted by Kankuro.
"Ah , Sakura…I'm glad you are still here, I brought Gaara his lunch he usually eats it here would you like some as well?
At the sound of a free meal the somber aura that was formed because of the snake faded away.
"Yes, please ( she turns back to Gaara) that is if you don't mind the company"
"Aa" he nodded and Kankuro left the room to get Sakura her meal as well.
"So, what is it we are eating this time?" she was curious, she was silently wishing it was the same omelet Gaara made her last night.
"Its miso soup with a side of roosted mushrooms…which I honestly don't like, but I eat them anyways because Temari is very sensible about her cooking"
When Gaara lifted the cover that was hiding the smell of the food and the food itself Sakura was dying to try the miso soup –IT smells great- but when her sensible nose reached the smell of the rousted mushrooms her stomach started making all kinds of flips, and suddenly she didn't felt so good, the smell became unbearable .
Gaara noticed this he saw how her face paled very fast, and he noticed her discomfort. Her once rosy cheecks began to lose color slowly and he could see some sweet forming in her forehead close to her seal.
"Are you ok Sakura?" He could not hide the concern in his tone as he asked , and all she could manage was to nod, yes .
-Oh Gods Not now Baby-
Gaara moved as fast as he could to get closer to her, kneeling right beside her "Are you sure?" "Yeah …I just need some air"
He helped her up to the window, not leaving her side at all ,holding her by the arm for support. He noticed she was wobbling as she tried to walk.
"Gaara… I don't think I feel so good" as soon as those words exited her mouth she found herself falling, if Gaara wasn't holding her she would have hit the floor –what's wrong?- And without thinking his brain started connecting the dots.
-I see- But what annoyed him was who he thought was to blame" – Damn Uchiha…how dare he deny what is so obvious…I can't believe him …yesterday Kakashi asked him…God damn I-" Kankuro interrupted his thoughts as he walked in, he was very surprised by what he saw. A very unconscious Sakura on Gaara's arms.
"Um…did I miss something?"
"Bring the soup to her room …(he was very mad…he almost yelled) I'm taking her there now"
"Ok" was all Kankuro said.
-I will stay by her side until she wakes, clearly I see why she is so stressed, I will offer her my unconditional protection…after all…it's the least I can do-
(A/N: Well my dears this is the end of the chapter please as always let me know what you guys think , it seems Gaara is winning our favorite kunoichi but there is still time for you to intervene ,who would her love be?
Gaara Deidara Hidan Kakashi or our dear old Sasuke-Kun please don't forget to read and review…and sorry for any misspelling I might have made…it is my first time doing this)
