The Raven Blossom

Back Home

Sakura

After telling Sasuke he kinda just shut down and stopped talking to me which caused me to worry. The silence between us as we drove home was mind racking. And it only got worse when we dropped off Ino and Shikamaru leaving Sasuke and I alone driving back toward my house. "Sasuke.....I was wondering if we could hang out at your house." I said looking over at him. His eyes remained on the road, "Will you please talk to me?" I said feeling my heart start to break. "Why didn't you tell me." he said.
"What do you mean?" I asked blushing. He turned toward me, his eyes were dark and filled with anger, "I'm sorry. I..."
"Sakura you don't have to face anything alone. And I'm not going to leave you because some other girl offers sex. I don't care about that, but next time anything like that is bothering you please tell me I care about what you have to say and what you can offer me is so much more then sex. You give me warmth, happiness and with you I can feel safe, all that means so much more then sex." he said causing tears to fall from my eyes, thank goodness it was of happiness.

We pulled up outside his house and got out only to have Itachi attack his younger brother with a vicious bear hug. Sasuke grunted then pushed the older man away, "What's your problem?" he asked.
"I'm just glad to see you both are all ok and stuff." he said rubbing the back of his head, "We're we not supposed to be?" Sasuke questioned. Itachi let out a nervous laugh then motioned for us to come in. Once inside he turned to us a serious look in his eyes, "Your in trouble." he said. "What do you mean?"
"You remember the guy that almost put dad out of business years ago?" Sasuke sighed then nodded, "Well he's back. And he said he's got it out for you and maybe anyone near you." I knew he meant me. Sasuke nodded then turned to me, "Come on let's go upstairs honey." I blushed at his comment and followed him.

I laid back on Sasuke's bed and watched as he walked into the bathroom took off his shirt then started washing his hands. Blushing I looked away, "So Sasuke who was Itachi talking about?" I asked hoping he wouldn't get mad because I asked. "I don't remember much, it was around when I was four or five." he said while laying by my side, pulling me closer to his naked chest he continued, "Some guy had almost taken over my dads company before. Thanks to some miracle as my dad called it they put the other guy out of business. That's all I pretty much remember." he said laying his head on my shoulder. I began to play absentmindedly with his hair, "Sasuke I know it may be moving fast but...please don't leave me. I love you." I said looking down at him.
He kissed me deeply then laid on his back in which I went ahead and cuddled up to him blushing the entire time before falling deeply to sleep.

Sai

"You ok?" Kiola asked. She had decided to come with me back home which I couldn't complain. We had spent all day talking and getting to know each other and now she was all laid back on one of the beds in our two bed hotel room. Yawning she looked over at me, "If I fall asleep your not going to try to rape me are you?" I laughed at her.
"No I'm not going to rape you. Go ahead and sleep we will need to leave early tomorrow." I said turning back to the t.v, "Uh...can I ask you something?" she questioned. Her cheeks began to turn pink, "Would...would you care sleeping with me until I fall asleep? Not because I like you just for safety reasons."

My eyes widened at her words, not even Temari wanted me to just sleep with her after we had sex. Now here was this beautiful girl asking if id sleep with her without sex. It was almost enough to make me forget Sakura, almost. "Sure." I made my way over to her bed then laid stiffly beside her not wanting to get to close and seem like a weirdo. Yes I know I act like an asshole when it comes to Sasuke and Sakura but I have no choice, I really do like Sakura but if I don't split them both up its my life on the line. I was nudged out of my thoughts when Kiola cuddled up to my side, her eyes were closed but a smile was on her face. That's when I felt it, something I felt toward Sakura and now toward Kiola, attraction. "Night Sai." she sighed. "Goodnight Kiola." I replied.
