Nightmares of the past ( Betrayed By You Sequel)

chapter 16

I'm back now, let's just say that I have had my time to grief. My sister and I  @Dramdial

I don't think I will ever really be over his death. It hurts still but I'm bearing with it.
Can't keep you guys waiting to long can I?. What kind of author would I be.

I'll miss him dearly, he was my hero, my inspiration, my everything helped through some hard times in my life and I'll never forget that.

Rest in peace.
My beloved
Chester Bennington.😭❤.

She felt as if she was floating, her body felt numb and heavy, the pain was also there.
Sakura felt herself slowly  drift back into consciousness. Tiny whimpers leaving her throat.

The sound of someone talking caught her attention as the haze from her mind was finally lifted.
She finally realized who it was.

Of course, no body else than Naruto Uzumaki, who was talking ten miles per hour.
Typical blonde.

"Naruto," she rasped, throat dry and scratchy. " if you don't shut up, so help me you little twit." She let the sentence hang.

There were three surprised gasps, all headed in her direction.

"Sakura!." TenTen cried, jumping to her feet to help the pink haired girl sit up, leaning her against the headboard.
" how do you feel?. Do you need anything?. "

Sakura grunted, taking a minute to catch her bearings, as her best friend bombarded her with questions.
" fine," she lied, her body racked with pain. " water, need some water."

Naruto bolted out the door, to return with a tall glass of cold water. Handing it to  TenTen he sat himself down by her feet. The other occupant of the room, Hinata smiled slightly.

" I'll go tell the others that your awake. Sakura-chan."

Sakura watched her go, her throat hurt to talk, Teny handed her the glass, tipping it back as her mouth open to allow the cool, refreshing liquid to slide down her throat, moistening her parched flesh.

Sakura sighed through her nose, as she drank. He mind was in circles. What the hell happened? Where the hell was Sasuke and his minion?. And how she did she end up in her bed?.

As TenTen pulled the glass away from her lips, she took a deep breathe. And looked at her best friend, who was looking at the droplets of cool water run down the sides of the glass.

"Teny?." Sakura asked her voice still a raspy. " what happened?."
Not missing the way the hand in her grasp stiffen.

Sighing Teny looked at Sakura with a disgruntled expression.
" you... Were hurt and I" she could feel the lump form in her throat, " couldn't help it.. I was scared and... I."

Sakura looked at her sadly, her eyes glistening.
"Its alright, I'm fine see?. I'm alive and fine?."
She took the other hand and pulled TenTen to her in a hug ignoring the painful pull in her back and muscles.

"I just..was so scared.. I know it's stupid and that your ridiculously strong. But I still worry."
She sighed, burying her face in Sakura shoulder, and allowing a few tears to finally slide down.

Sakura smiled and hugged tighter. At the same time the door flew open and in the entrance stood the small group of people that she didn't expect to see when she was injured.
Shisui for one was surprising.

"Guys!." She exclaimed a bit puzzled and amazed.
"What are you doing here.?."

They didn't say anything to her just stared at her for ten seconds flat before they all yelled and pounced. Hugging and pressing kisses all over her face.

Sakura laughed happily at all the attention she was getting, and looked up from all the bodies that were currently squishing her to gaze at the doorway of her bedroom, her eyes locked with dark, smoky orbs that made her heart beat faster.

Itachi watched her laugh, leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed and expression composed.
His mind was somewhere else though, all the information that they got out of the man was rather useless. They needed a lead.

"Oi, you prat!."

He snapped out of his musings to see Shisui giving him the stink eye.

" get your ass over here and say hello to your woman.!."

Wow, who knew Shisui was so bossy?.

Rolling his eyes, Itachi stepped forward Into the room, closing the door behind him.

Sasuke cursed as he touched his face gingerly, feeling the still swollen flesh throb painfully under his finger tips.
He snarled, kicked in the face by a girl, his ex girlfriend no less.

He took his shirt off and sauntered in the bathroom, idly touching his face.
Sasuke pulled out the kit from under the sink and placed it in the sink before getting started on replacing bandages on the many cuts that adored his pale skin.

He thought back, it was only a day, but his injuries were not that fatal, he should heal quite quickly.

Just as he was finishing his bandaging his cell rang, disturbing the peaceful atmosphere.

With a long sigh he picked it up.

"Hello?."

"Ah, Sasuke my boy I reckoned that you've failed in your mission?."

He repressed a snarl of frustration of having being constantly reminded that he didn't pull through with his task..

"Shut the fuck up, satoshi, I would have if your sons didn't showed up."

There was a small chuckle on the other side.
"Ah, yes I see, always meddlesome those two brats.. Now over grown brats."

"Yes, well your, over grown brat nearly bit my head off.

Sasuke shuddered at the pure rage and boiling fury and killing intent that rolled off Sasori Akasuna in waves the other night and mentally promised to be a lot more careful.

" Hmm, is that Sasori that you speak off?."  When he got a grunt in reply he continued.
"Well ,yes Sasori has always been over protective of my Sakura, so its no surprise that he saw you a a threat he wants dead."

Sasuke scowled, if this bastard feel he was getting Sakura then he was dead wrong.

'Well now, I'll give you one last chance Sasuke, if you can't retrieve Sakura-chan for me, then I'll have to take matters in my own hands now won't I?." Satoshi said in a low voice.

Sasuke bristled with anger
"Listen here ass, Sakura is mine and you won't be having her now if you excuse me, I have much better things to do." And with that he hung up.

No one was going to use him as a puppet, he always gets what he wants.
