Sakura woke up and sat up, she looked around and realized she wasn't in her room and got out of bed and then she walked out to the kitchen finding everyone standing in there. When she walked in they all turned around and watched her. "I'm really sorry for yelling at yo-" Sakura was cut off from Konan jumping on her.
"You don't have to apologize Sakura. We were never even mad at you in the first place." Konan said backing up to look Sakura in the eyes. Then Konan was pushed aside by Tobi.
"Saku-chan! I'm so happy that you are better!" Tobi said squeezing Sakura. Sakura pushed Tobi back a bit.
"I'm not better Tobi, actually I'm far from it." Sakura said looking down at the ground causing everyone to glare at Tobi for hurting Sakura. "But all I need is time then I will start to feel better." Sakura said looking back up giving Tobi a reassuring smile because she felt his grip on her arms tighten. After a few seconds of silence Tobi hugged Sakura again.
"Saku-chan is strong and will get passed it all and grow stronger because of it! Tobi knows it because, Tobi is a good boy!" Tobi said lifting Sakura up. When Tobi put Sakura down he saw no emotions in her eyes but she was smiling and he knew why she was smiling a fake smile. She didn't want any of them to think she was still hurting or to make them worry.
"All right. Now that your little pink ass is up now, why don't you make us all a good meal before we die from someone else's cooking." Kisame said smiling at Sakura. Sakura looked at Kisame and smiled a little and walked to the fridge and got food out to cook.
"I'll start cooking but i need some one to go out and get stuff for dessert." Sakura said taking out things and more food.
"All right we'll take care of that." Konan said turning around.
"Wait. I have a list for you to use." Sakura said turning around walking to Konan giving her the list of things to get.
Konan smiled and dragged Deidara and Kakazu with her to go to the shops.
Sakura went back to the stove and continued to cook dinner. Everyone was still in the kitchen looking at Sakura then turned to walk out to the living room. Sakura was in the Kitchen now all alone, she looked up around herself and sighed then she turned around and saw Zetsu half out of the ground. "Hey Zetsu."
"Hello." Zetsu said moving closer to see what she was doing. "Mind if I stay in here?"
"No." Sakura turned to the oven and started to put meat in the pan. Then turned back around and started cutting up different kinds of veggies. Zetsu the whole time watched as she skillfully cut, peeled, and dumped things. He then looked up at Sakura when he heard her sigh.
"Are you alright?" Zetsu asked looking at Sakura turn her eyes to look at him.
"Hn." She looked back down then stopped cutting and ran into Zetsu hugging him. Zetsu was stunned a little and was stiff. "I'm sorry but i just really want to hug someone, and you are here so..." Zetsu relaxed and put his arms around her.
"It's alright. I was just a little shocked. No one every just runs at me and hugs me." He said.
Sakura backed up smiling another fake smile then turned back around and finished cutting things. Zetsu stared at Sakura then looked back at what she was doing.
"We're back!" Konan said walking in the kitchen with Kakazu and Deidara walking in behind her with bags in their hands. "We got everything that was on the list." Konan said smiling.
"Yeah." Kakazu said putting the bags on the counter. "So what you going to make?"
"It's a surprise." Sakura said pulling everything out of the bags. She turned around and told them that they could go now and that she had every thing else. When Zetsu didn't leave Sakura looked at him in the eyes and told him to go, he sighed then left going under ground.
Sakura was done cooking and setted the table then hollered to everybody to come sit down. When she dished everybody's plate she was walking out of the dinning room when Hidan said, "Where the fuck are you going bitch?"
Sakura stopped in her tracks and turned around to find everybody looking at her. "I'm not hungry so I'm going to go take a shower." When she turned around she was grabbed by both arms lifted and swung on to a shoulder then was dropped into a chair.
"You are going to eat weither you like it or not Pinky." Kisame said looking down at her then he walked to his seat and sat down.
"Here" Konan gave Sakura a plate of food and they all started to eat again. Sakura looked down at her plate for a bit then looked around at everybody and sighed. She started to eat her food.
"Alright. Now that I have finished my food can I please go?" Sakura asked the food gone from her plate.
"Sure." Pein said also getting up himself leaving right behind Sakura. Everybody got up and started to clear the table.
"Sir?"
"Come in."
Konan came in and said, "Why aren't you helping us help Sakura?"
Pein looked up, "What could you all possible do for Sakura? Do any of you understand her? Do any of you truly know of her past?"
Konan's eyes widen with shock. "No bu-"
"No Konan. Unless you know her and her past and understand her pain then I want you all to just let her work on it herself unless she comes to you personally." Pein looked at Konan then looked back down at his work and said, "If that is all you may go."
Konan turned around and left his office. Pein got up and walked to the window and looked out. "No one understands some one else's pain unless they have experienced it themselves. And I'm sure no one here in Akatsuki has been through what you have Sakura."
