Sasuke's POV
I could still hear Itachis stupid laugh echo through the hall as we made our way further from the party it slowly began to fade until I slammed the door to a back room shut.
This is the most humiliating thing I could imagine.
Itachi I swear I'll get my revenge.
Of course this stupid plan wasn't going to work. I should have known better. Why would Itachi want to help me??? God! I'm so stupid!
To think he'd go through all this trouble just to mess with me!
I can't even focus on being mad right now with Sakura with me I need to start explaining things soon or she'll leave.
Man what a mess.
"Um.. Sasuke?" She asked softly
My face was still red when I finally let go of her hand and turned to face her
"Let me explain-"
Sakura punched me in the nose so hard I actually fell to the ground
"Sakura??"
She balled up her fists and held them straight down to her sides as she held back tears
"You better start explaining!"
"I was-"
I pinched my nose shut as it already started bleeding from where she hit me.
This whole scenario went a lot better in my head I'm not gonna lie.
"Actually- you know what? I really don't want to hear it!" She started to turn around
I panicked and grabbed her hand
"Sakura wait you gotta believe me this is all Karins fault" I tried to explain
"Karin?" She turned around
"Karin was the last straw!" Sakura pulled her hand back
"Do you know who's fault it really is?" She pushed me back
"Look I get it I'll take some blame too but believe me she was telling me what to do and-"
"No- I'll tell you! It's actually all my fault for putting up with you for all this time!" I was taken back by her words
I was so shocked I didn't even know how to react
"Long before Karin I had to put up with you showing up late, ignoring me, choosing others over me, and just not even talking to me! How is communicating too much to ask?"
"But you know what I deserved this. I'm the one who didn't want to tell Mr perfect Sasuke that these things were hurting me."
"I was so scared that if I let myself speak out you'd leave me- well guess what? I've grown from this and started to really analyze it and I don't care anymore!"
All I could do was slump down in shock watching as the tears streamed down her face
Is this really how I've made Sakura feel?
"And let's say you're right and this all is somehow Karins fault. That she had you strapped up to some kind of voodoo doll and forced you to act like this. It could have all been avoided if we actually had a normal relationship"
She started sniffling and slowing down
"We could have talked it out at least- you wouldn't have had to go to her" she stopped and began sobbing into her hands
