Be With Me

Chapter 107 - Tell The Truth

(Next Day)
The sky was dark gray with heavy rain hitting hard against the window. The apartment was dark and soundless as Sakura sat in the living room staring motionless at the rain dripping in from the open window. She can still remember and feel Sasuke rough hands caressing her ribs. Softly touching her skin with his fingertips while looking into her eyes. His black hair trailing down slowly on her body as he kissed her body from top to bottom sending chills all over her body. His black sweater covering her as black and blue finger prints were all over her body. His grip was as powerful as their love was. "Sakura... Sakura... Sakura..." His voice echoing her name played in her mind over and over. "Sasuke..." She said in a low tone as tear went down her cheek. "You promise you would explain to me whats going on... but you left again..." Sakura hid her face between her arms are curl up at the end of the coach.

Sakura heard the door open and didn't pay attention. "She's in the living room". Sakura could hear Ino. The door open as Naruto, Hinata and Ino came into the room. "Hey Sakura-Chan". Naruto messed her hair as he took a seat on the recliner in front of the coach. Hinata sat next to Sakura as Ino closed the window. "Sakura... Are you ok?" Naruto asked worried. "You knew..." Naruto stood quietly as he looked down. "Sakura.." "Tell me! You're his best friend! What's going on!!!" Sakura looked at him with tears dripping heavy from her eyes. Naruto looked at her and sighs. "Sasuke's left.. to protect you.." Naruto began. "From what?" Naruto looked at her. "Mr and Mrs Uchiha". Sakura looked at him surprised and shocked. "W-What?" Sakura heart dropped.

"His parent believe that you are the reason Itachi is gone. They believe that you caused his death and don't want you with Sasuke. Fugaku is forced Sasuke into going abroad to be a cop at the same level as Itachi. Even though Sasuke did what they say, he's fighting to be with you. Secret agents spying at him 24/7 and recording his every moves. Sasuke couldn't tell you because he wanted to faced it himself and confront them". Sakura mouth was open in surprise and began tearing. "But... I didnt.. Itachi was just..." Sakura began having flashbacks of that awful day. "He was trying to stop Kabuto from shooting at me.... I... shouldn't have tried to stop it.. it's my fault..." Sakura said in a low tone. Everyone looked at her surprised.

"Sakura. It's not your-" Hinata began. "NO! I tried to take the gun from Kabuto! I was the reason why Itachi!" Sakura looked at Hinata. Naruto looked at her shocked. "I'm... Sorry..." Sakura cried more. Naruto looked at Sakura and tear a bit. Hinata cried as she held Sakura in her arms. Ino covered her mouth and cried as she was surprise on how his death went on. "Sakura... It's not your fault.." Naruto began. "You were trying to save them... I know you. It's not your fault". Naruto said as he man up. "Then why can't I believe that?! Watching the one that protected you and was there for you all the time say "I Love you" as his last words. I have to live with that my whole life! Because I was the person who caused his death". Sakura shouted.
