Sorry, this is a short chapter. I'll update soon! ❤❤❤

I'm not dating her.

"Oh, look! Isn't she adorable, Sasuke?" A certain pinkette squealed in joy at the sight of a small child in a stroller on the subway. Her arms hugged mine, and she stared in awe. The child she spoke of was no older than a couple months, and slept peacefully in the dark Navy colored stroller. In her tiny hands she held a pink colored bunny, used for emotional support and a pillow - a double threat.

I suppose the sight was sort of heartwarming, but that's it.

"Yes... I suppose she is quite cute, isn't she?" I replied calmly. I pulled my arm away from her death grip, and stared at the child with curiosity. Admiring children in the subway is one thing, having children is another. The little brat was a devil in disguise. I remember quite clearly what a child really acts like - they can't always look like sleeping angels.

"Oh, Sasuke, ours is gonna look even cuter! Just wait and see!" The joyful statement made me want to puke. I wasn't ready for a child, I wasn't even ready for a relationship with someone who wasn't the love of my life, Naruto. I can admit that this child can't be ignored, no matter how much I wish it were possible, but I can't admit that I'll love this child. How could I? It's taking everything I love from me simply by existing!

It's the living embodiment of my failures. It'll represent my failed relationship with Naruto, the impossibility of getting back together, and the night I'll regret for the rest of my days. The night I slept with Sakura. I won't be able to look at it without wanting to hit it, and that scares me very much. I'd hate to be that drunk dad who only comes home to beat their family.

But it seems like my life is leading me there.

I sat patiently in the subway, trying my best to push away Sakura's advancements. Sometimes it seems like although all of this was a mistake, Sakura took it as some sort of blessing. She acts like she wants to get pregnant again, and never keeps her claws to herself, basically throwing herself at me. What ever happened to her dignity? Now I remember why I couldn't remember her name in the first place. She's annoying.

"I can't wait for you to meet all my friends and family, they're gonna love you," she paused and tried to give me a kiss on the cheek. A kiss I gladly dodged. A small frown formed on her face as she continued, "remember Naruto? Yeah, he's gonna totally flip out when he sees you! You guys were always close, weren't you? He's got this amazing girlfriend now, an-"

"Did you just say, Naruto?" I couldn't have pushed someone off faster than I did now. She looked hurt, but quickly recovered before nodding innocently. My mind suddenly became foggy with panic. I was meeting with Naruto as Sakura's partner, the one thing I didn't want to do! How would that seem? Not too long ago I was drunk and begging for him, and now I was going to be a father with some bitch I couldn't even remember. The humiliation was too much.

"Sasuke, calm down! What's wrong? I told you about him before - he was the boyfriend of that girl, they look so cute together! They've been together for a while now...I think a couple years now and th-" I slapped her before she could finish her rambling, and quickly regretted it. People began to give me threatening stares, some even getting up from their seat. I completely forgot we were in a subway full of people!

"Hey, what're ya doing hitting that lady!"

"Who do ya think you are, huh?"

"That poor defenseless girl!"

"What a monster!"

"Is he abusing you, ma'am?"

"Someone call the police!"

"Isn't she pregnant? I can see she has a small bump!"

"Oh my God! He slapped a pregnant woman!"

I heard as people began closing in on me, each one yelling something horrible toward me. Women were surrounding Sakura, asking if she was alright, and Sakura simply looked devastated. The child we were staring at earlier was crying. It's small arms reached out for comfort, and tears rolled down it's small cheeks. I was called a monster, an abuser, a drunk - any name that could be called was used.

I watched as Sakura did nothing to defend me, and only sat is shocked silence as women tried to speak to her. A red mark was on her pale cheek in the shape of my hand, and for the first moment in my life, I felt like I truly deserved what was coming my way. Sakura softly caressed her injury, looking nobody in the eyes. She looked humiliated. I was almost tempted to go and apologize, but I was too late.

I felt two arms pull me back and push me against the subway wall. A group of men was surrounding me, their faces all morphed into anger and violence. A punch was soon landed on my face, and I could feel my teeth smash against each other, blood spitting out of my mouth. Despite the pain I felt, I made no move to defend myself. Karma was a bitch, and I deserved it.

My hair was yanked up as men tried to keep me standing. My eyes were swollen black. My mouth was sore. My gut heaved out in pain as kicks and shoves were aimed my way. I could feel myself slowly slipping away along with the pain.

I could still hear the child crying. It's yells of sadness were all I could hear. Although my eyes were swollen, I could still make out the form of Sakura sitting down. She looked at me, and for some reason, a smirk was on her lips.

Turns out Karma isn't the only bitch out to get me.

End of Chapter 4

Plot twist, or what? Hope you enjoyed. I'll be updating soon. Hopefully sometime after tomorrow.
