Wedding Day

I examined Sakura's back carefully even though I knew that she wasn't going to have any terrible injuries. All the same, she was thrown out of a window, and I wasn't able to immediately treat her. Thankfully, she didn't seem to have any infections, which was my greatest concern, and her shoulder even seemed relatively okay.

"It's not too bad." Sakura stated, turning her head enough to glance at me.

How wasn't I going to heal her? What the hell did she expect? "You were thrown out of a window, and your back actually is fairly messed up, luckily Kakashi set your shoulder back right."

She looked down, "You have other things you need to be doing though."

I sighed, at least she seemed to feel bad, although I wasn't nearly as mad at her as I was with Karin. She actually threw her out of Ino's fucking window! What the hell!? Okay, I knew both of them were possessive, but this time it wasn't Sakura's fault! I mean, yeah, the situation wouldn't have escalated if Sakura didn't keep interrupting me and I would've then been able to tell Karin to back off, but Karin for whatever reason couldn't wrap her head around the fact that if I allowed Sakura to sit on my lap then I was fucking okay with her doing that.

And to call Sakura a slut too? It wasn't like Karin, Suigetsu, and I didn't have something weird going on, so for her to have the nerve to try and call Sakura out for being just simply affectionate was as hypocritical as it was stupid, and then to call her mentally handicapped... it was disgusting behavior to be frank.

Her living with me for the past few days, though, did allow her plenty of time to wear down my resolve and anger to a point where I could stand to be around her. She truly was sorry, and I knew what had happened. She broke, snapped, and she acted without thinking, we both knew that, and although it didn't make it okay, Karin didn't exactly have a normal life, and I could understand where that course of action originated from.

Sakura didn't feel bad about what she said, and in some ways that disturbed me. She did feel bad about hurting someone I was close to at least, but, just like Karin, she made statements on things she had no fucking clue about. Yes, she was much closer to me, in a way almost nobody here understood, but that didn't give her the right to lord that over other people and act like she somehow intrinsically had more value than them because of it. I was one of the first significant relationships Karin had formed, so to tell her that that was all meaningless, yeah, of course she'd snap.

And, yes, Suigetsu was a fucking asshole, but what right did Sakura have to call him useless and make fun of their relationship? They both were really important to me, they were most of the reason I remained sane while I was away, and for Sakura to not be able to put that aside over her petty jealousy hurt me. God, that whole thing was a disaster, and if I'd been able to process any of it before it had escalated to that point, I might have thrown them both out the window.

"You can't enjoy the wedding if you're all scratched up, right?" I replied simply.

Sakura further deflated, more guilty over the fact this had happened so close to the event, "But... I'm okay... Kakashi did a good job."

"He did." I admitted, each wound was cleaned and bound fairly well, but a quick swipe with some healing chakra would make them nonexistent.

"He didn't... do anything right?" Kiba was leaning against the doorframe, facing the other way to give Sakura her privacy. And to think people thought we were a threesome.

Sakura glared at the doorway, "What does that mean?"

I tried not to grimace myself, yes, I had seen them together, arriving just in time to find that she was, indeed, shirtless in front of Kakashi. She may have covered herself, and he may have been quite respectful, but luckily Temari was there because I would have ended up getting myself also thrown in prison. At least those guards were there, that trio were actually quite chill. After Kiba had attacked Kakashi, I didn't expect to go down to retrieve him and find them all chatting casually. I knew Sakura would be safe with them in the room, but, all the same, it only made me angrier at Karin.
