Sakura slowly opened her eyes, covering them with her palm. The annoying sun brutally woke her. She groaned. Then she remembered...
"Oh no, oh noo!" she shot up from the bed and from Itachi's arms, throwing the blanket aside and leaving him naked. The chilly air of the morning hit his bare skin. He looked confused at the naked pinkette who was desperately trying to find her clothes from last night. His eyes followed her every moved and how she bent forward, picking up her bra. Her beautiful ass was red from the spanking and she had some bruises here and there. He smirked to himself, being proud of his art work.
"Why are you in such a rush?" he asked, stretching his arms and letting his body fall back on the comfy bed.
"I should have been at the hospital already. Kami, I hope Lady Tsunade won't find out." she said as she clasped her bra. He watched her pulling up her lacy black thongs with his hands behind his head. He licked his lips. Sakura was astonished of how his muscles looked. She cleared her throat.
He sighed and got out of bed. She watched his manhood bouncing and hitting his thighs. She rubbed her own thighs. Damn, hormones.
"I will go and make you lunch until you get dressed."
He exited the room, naked. She gulped and shook her head. She needed to get ready.
The tight, short dress was laying on the floor. She picked it up and dressed. After that, she brushed her hair and tied it in a ponytail. Probably Itachi didn't have any makeup around the house so she had to go to the hospital looking like a ghost. Just great.
Her feet carried her to the kitchen where Itachi just finished packing her lunch. He turned around and handed it to her. His long, black hair was falling on his shouldres like a waterfall. The pinkette felt her cheeks turning red. He was still naked in front of her.
Sakura walked through the crowded streets, gripping tightly her lunch bag. She entered the hospital, being greeted by the nurses and doctors.
"Sakura, you are here!" Shizune exclaimed happily, eyeing her from head to toes.
She scratched the back of her neck awkwardly "Yeah, sorry for being late."
Shizune waved her hand. "It's alright. This isn't a busy day. Most of our ninjas are in missions. It will be a lot of work only after they come back. Check ups and such."
Sakura nodded.
"But why are you late? Spent time with Naruto?" she winked at the pinkette. She gulped.
"N-no... We broke up."
Shizune watched her perplexed. "How so?"
"I'm trying to hook him up with Hinata, alright? I don't love him that way."
"Who do you love, then?" she asked curiously.
Sakura looked at the floor.
"I don't know. It's complicated." she bit her lip in embarassment.
"No worry. You are an intelligent girl. You'll figure it out. And oh, Ino came some minutes ago. She asked about you and I told her to wait for you in your office."
Sakura nodded. "I'm heading there."
Her heels were clicking in the floor as she turned right. She opened the door to her office and spotted Ino sitting on the examination table. The blonde was playing with her fingers. She lifted her head when she heard the door being closed, her blue eyes piercing through Sakura's green ones.
"Sakura!" she said happily. Sakura smiled at her best friend.
"Hello, Ino!"
She went to the wardrobe, opening it and taking her white coat.
"Is there any problem?" she turned to her friend, concerned.
"Well..." she looked at her lap. "The thing is that..." she inhaled deeply. "I'm pregnant."
Sakura blinked a few times, standing there, frozen.
"Y-you are?"
Ino nodded.
"Congrulations!" she screamed, throwing her arms around the blonde's neck. Ino laughed at her friend's excitement. She didn't expect this.
Sakura pulled apart.
"But I'm afraid of what my parents will say. I mean... I am not married yet." she bit her lip.
"Hey, don't worry. Sai is a nice guy and I'm sure that he has good intentions with you. He will ask you to marry him, eventually. Heck, for what I know he probably thinks about a way to do it." the pinkette smiled kindly at her friend.
"Yes but I'm scared. I mean... Pregnancy and child birth is painful." she jumped off the table.
"Not if you have a best friend who is the best doctor from Konoha!" Sakura raised her finger in front of Ino's face. She smiled.
"I will give you some pills for morning sickness and you have to come for a check up after your child starts kicking." the pinkette scribbled soelmething on a paper then pulled some pills from a drawer. She handed them to Ino.
"Thank you. You are the best."
She smiled.
"Will you... Be the godmother of my child?" she asked shyly. Sakura thought about it.
"Shouldn't a godmother have a godfather as well?" she raised a brow.
"Oh, right. I forgot, I'm sorry. But perhaps you'll find someone before the nine months are over?!"
Sakura folded her arms to her chest. The image of a certain someone popped in her mind. His gentle smile and soft touch. Oh, how much she wished for things to be different with him. To be close to him everyday, in different ways.
"Perhaps..." she said absently.
After Ino was gone, Sakura spent the wntire day at the office, taking an extra shift. She didn't want to go home, in her empty apartment and let herself be prey to the loneliness again. They were specific: no strings attached. Meaning that she couldn't go to him when she felt down or lonely. She didn't want to bother him with trivial things. He was a complex person. He didn't have time for such cliche things.
A man in the shadows watched her through the window. She let her head down, sobbing and grabbing a fistful of her hair.

Itachi jumped in bed, caressing the empty spot where she laid last night. He just wanted to see her coming home everyday from work and greeting him tiredly while he hugged her kissed the hell out of her. But this thing won't ever be possible, right? She is too afraid to love again. To give someone the oportunity to hurt her the way Sasuke hurt her.
"But I wouldn't do that..." he whispered, thinking on how he would treasure her like a rare gem.

Sorry for the boring chapter but I have to focus on other things as well, right? Or else it gets too cliche.
Also, I'm curios: What did you think when you saw the title? 😂😂
