"I feel like I am dying."

Sasuke lay on his back, with pain radiating from his chest to the legs.

He was barely able to lift his arm to extend it toward Sakura.

He no longer had the strength to do anything.

"You're exaggerating, Sasuke-kun." Sakura pulled the thermometer from under her husband's arm, "You don't even have a fever."

"That's impossible," commented Sasuke, unable to believe the words. Sakura was a doctor, but she didn't feel what he felt at that moment.

She showed him the thermometer. "Do you believe me now?" Sasuke looked away from his wife. "Hm." Sakura cocked her head sideways, seeing his reaction. "I'll make you some warm soup, and then I'll try to ease the pain in your chest." she threw a blanket over Sasuke "You should feel better."

She wanted to walk away, but Sasuke grabbed her wrist with the last of his strength. Sakura looked at him with a raised eyebrow, and moments later she was pulled down.

"It will be faster this way."
