Sakura

Sasuke and I sat outside under the stars on a blanket. After he came over I brought him in and cleaned him up then I grabbed a big blanket and now we sat outside in the warm spring night and talked. "So since you were thirteen you've been taking the abuse from your dad so that he wouldn't hurt your mom?" I asked wanting to make sure I heard him right. He slowly nodded, "I thought at the time that if I could take all the punishments that id keep her safe." he said. This was a side of Sasuke that I never thought id see that I didn't even know he had. Even in the dull moon light I could still make out the dark bruises on his cheeks. His dark onyx eyes seemed to gleam in the light as he faced me and his bangs fell lazily in front of his face. This guy, had been threw so much at such a young age and I felt the dire need to be with him and let him know he's not alone. "You know...I know this won't help in anyway but my dad died when I was really little." I was silent until he hugged me, "I'm sorry." he whispered only loud enough for me to hear. "It was hard at first." I continued, "Remembering when he kissed my mom then kissed me on the cheek and said, ' Ill see you tomorrow little blossom.' but when tomorrow came, he never did. I found out that night that he had been in a bad car crash that killed him instantly." my eyes burned, tears traced paths down my porcelain cheeks. "I...I never got to tell him goodbye." I sobbed, why I was telling a guy I've only known a few days about my past for was beyond me at the moment but it just came pouring out, I trust him.

Sasuke was silent and his expression unreadable, his hand lightly touched my now burning cheek and softly he brushed the tears away. I knew he may not really understand why I told him and it probably didn't help at all with his problem. 'Quite your negative thinking.' my inner muttered. "Sasuke.....I......I trust you. And I hope you trust me. If you ever need anything you can always talk to me." I blurted, his expression remained unreadable but he nodded. I started to turn away when his lips touched mine, so warm yet soft. A strange feeling shuddered threw my body as if I couldn't get enough of him. "Umm...did I come at a bad time?" came a voice that caused me and him to separate quickly. Sasuke let out a loud sigh, "What do you want Itachi!?" he growled. Sure enough standing a few feet from us was Sasuke's older brother. "Star watching in front of her house Aww how sweet." he laughed. I could tell Sasuke was getting agitated so I stood, "Its getting cool lets go in and talk." Sasuke gave me a 'Thank you' look and I smiled.

Sasuke

We all sat in Sakura's living room, her mom said she had to go take a shower but I knew it was just an excuse for her to leave so we could talk. "So she knows?" Itachi asked glancing over at the pinkett. "Yes I told her everything. Now why are you here?" I questioned, shaking his head he stood and began pacing. "Frankly dad is not happy Sasuke. Not in the slightest." He said.

"I don't give a damn. He's lucky I didn't kill him." I muttered. He nodded and smirked, "If mom hadn't stopped you, you probably would had. But the point is Sasuke he doesn't want you to come back." he said, his words hit me hard. "Hmph. Fine." I grunted.

"Don't be like that. We managed to get him to agree to let you stay." he said, I raised an eyebrow. "What makes you think I want to come back?"

"I know you will. You won't leave mom alone." he said crossing his arms, he was right there was no way I would let her be there alone with him. "Fine." I grunted.

"Now maybe you two need to talk. Because that kiss had relationship written all over it." he smirked at his comment, "Damn I'm good." Sakura blushed then looked at the clock on the wall, "Its getting late and we have school tomorrow." we all stood and she walked us to the door, "Night Sasuke-kun." she lightly kissed my cheek, "Goodnight Sakura."

"Oh come on. All this romance crap is killing me. I feel like any minute now you two are going to go full on 50 shades..."

"Shut up!" I growled. Itachi shrugged and smiled, Sakuras cheeks couldn't get any pinker.

I wave goodbye to her as I drove behind Itachi's car. I didn't think about it at the time but that was the first time I had ever let anyone see me cry or tell them all that, with Sakura it just came Natural. Pulling up into the drive way I got out and waited on Itachi. "Alright just go hang out in your room." he said, off in the distance I heard the rumbling of a brewing storm. If I had known what was going to happen I would had changed everything, "Hurry up Sasuke." Itachi called from the front door, I started toward him but stopped. Gazing out at the dark trees that spotted our lawn I frowned, from where I stood it looked like Gaara was standing behind on of the trees peering out at me with insane eyes. "What's taking so long?" Itachi asked now standing by my side, he followed my gaze but now there was nothing there. "Nothing lets go." I muttered.

Gaara

"As long as no killing is involved." Temari said. Sai nodded, and I could understand why. Temari wouldn't kill and wouldn't have anything to do with anyone who did. "So the plan for now is clear, Gaara goes for Sakura and Temari you focus on Sasuke. Ill keep them apart." he said. I nodded, his plan was fairly simple. We just keep them apart while trying to get Sakura to secretly get back with Sai, that's the little detail Temari didn't know. "Alright." Temari kissed Sai and walked out of the room, he leaned over and whispered, "Don't let the Uchiha live." I nodded my understanding, Sasuke Uchiha must die.

Sakura(Again)

I walked back up to my bedroom and shut the door. 'You better decide soon girl. He kissed you tonight, so you staying just friends? Or will you try for more?' my inner said. Letting out a loud sigh I stared out my window, lightning flashed which caused me to jump. Tomorrow ill let him know how I feel, I really like him especially after he trusted me enough to open up to me but right now I better get to bed before this storm rolls in and keeps me up, I thought to myself. Laying down on my bed my eye lids began to grow heavy then I was out like a light unaware of the pain that was coming or that I was being watched right now.
