QUICK ANNOUNCEMENT!
My friend started a YouTube channel a few months ago, it consists of challenges and they do read the comments so you can suggest a challenge for them to do! If you're interested, their channel name is Bubblifi, go on ahead and check it out!

I'd go days, weeks, months without talking to you, but everyday, you're on my mind.

~~~~~~~~~~

I drove and drove listening to Sakura's beautiful voice. I heard other drivers crying from listening to it. I'd been weaving in and out of cars for a while now and I'm almost at the airport as long as the police don't catch me, I should be alright.

There's no way I can stop now, I'm 20 minutes away! "Um, I think it's time for me to leave," Sakura said through the radio, I felt my heart drop as I gripped even tighter onto the steering wheel, please! Stall her for a little longer! 

"Ahm! Would you mind answering a few questions?" The man hurriedly said, "I don't think I can..." Sakura mumbled. "Please! It will only take a few minutes!" Then there was a long awkward pause. "Okay then..." Sakura muttered.

I smiled knowing I'd be able to get to her on time. I can have her back in my arms again, back in my life. Just a little while longer and I'll see her again. The airport was in my sight and I couldn't hold back my grin as I began to hear her voice without the radio.

I gasped and slammed my foot onto the brakes when I saw cars blocking the road. Sticking my head out the window, I saw that people had left their cars to watch Sakura perform from the bridge. They all roared after every song Sakura performed whilst I tried to weave in and out of them.

"And now, the first person the call gets to perform a live song with Sakura Haruno!" I immediately took out my phone and called. I watched as everyone raced back to their car to search for their phone as well, the announcer picked up my call and chuckled.

"What's your name sir?" He asked as if he didn't know my name already. "Sasuke," I heard Sakura gasp in the background before she said, "I should go," She yelped frantically. She really doesn't want to talk or see me huh?

 "W-Wait! We can't just leave the winner! You have to sing a song with him!" Then there was silence as though everyone was holding their breath. "Fine, I'll sing the song..." She mumbled. I felt my heart leap for joy as I picked my phone up and began to exit my car.

I leaned over the bridge and smiled at her, she was frantically searching the crowd, her eyes filled to the brim with tears. Then her eyes locked with mine and all her tears came pouring down her face, she didn't blink though, she just stared at me in shock.

She mouthed my name and we didn't break eye contact at all. I could feel my heart race at the sight of her, I wanted to rush down there and kiss her tears away, I wanted to tell her I still loved her, that I only wanted her to achieve her dreams.

Her eyes were pleading with me, begging me to stay away but she looked as if she was expecting me to go to her. I couldn't hold myself back anymore and I began to barge through the crowd of people to reach the other side of the bridge. 

The soundtrack began to play and I kept looking at her as I ran. Hopefully this will get her to stay with me...

As I began to sing, I watched as she crinkled her nose as bit and her lip as the tears streamed down her face. I continued to barge through people and when I saw the end of the bridge, I pushed past everyone and went even faster.

When I was close enough to the ground, I jumped over the bar and tried to get through security who were holding me back. My eyes were still looking at her, pleading for her not to go. She returned an apologetic look and began to get closer to the plane.

I still struggled to get out of their grip by the time I stopped singing and looked down in defeat when I could hear the music with no voice. Then I heard it. Her beautiful voice singing to me, I shot my head up and immediately began to try to push the guards off of me.

I felt a tear form in my eye as I broke free and began to run the mass distance between us, I was panting, out of breath. My chest hurt as did my feet, Sakura just remained where she was, it was as if there was a battle going on in her head.

Staring in her eyes felt as though it was keeping her there, paralyzed, waiting to be unfrozen by my arms. I can make her stay. She doesn't have to go! I still have a chance to have her once more, hopefully forever.

The distance seemed to close and I reached my arm out to her in happiness, I can make it! But instead of waiting for me to engulf her in warmth, she turned and ran. Stumbling up the stairs was slower than I was running but the distance would get the best of me.

My legs were going numb and were on the verge of giving up but I kept running. Just as she made it to the door of the plane, I was at the bottom of the stairs, clambering up to reach her. She stared. Her lips apart as if to say something. 

Then she fully turned to me as I reached the top, half her body was in the plane and I planned to get her out. I grabbed her hand and held her, she cupped my face and gave me a kiss. A smile made its way to my face and I went to hold even tighter after wiping her tears away.

She whispered to me, looking downwards, I smiled. She looked up to me with tear filled eyes and whispered again, I furrowed my brow before I felt her push me back down the stairs and vanish into the plane. 

The plane door shut swiftly and began to move before I could even blink. My heart banged in my chest and I turned and began to run after the plane. "SAKURA!" I screamed after her, trying to catch up to a plane was impossible but I could see her crying to me through the window.

As the plane left the ground, I collapsed to my knees as I felt the security guards grab onto me and drag me away. I felt the tears stream down my face as I replayed her whispers in my head over and over again, her pained voice when she said,

"I'm sorry Sasuke-kun, this will be the last time,"
