happy hour

take my heart back

Naruto pov

When I woke up I saw sakura sleeping soundly.

I was glad. After last night...

Delos death hit her hard.

She was going to have a husband. Her happiness was so close. Then it was gone.

Maybe, just maybe, it can come back.

When she saw Sasuke, she seemed happy. Maybe Sasuke is the one for her. Well now he might be. I know that Delos was one and only... but he made her promise to keep living. Sakura never breaks her promises.

Especially not her promises to him

I got up and got ready. We're leaving soon.

We still had a few hours; I wanted sakura to rest a bit more.

But as soon as I thought that she woke up.

"Go back to sleep" I told her

"No I'm fine... just a bit uneasy..." she answered

I knew she was thinking of the nightmare she had.

"Let's go out to eat" I offered, "you can pick any place and I'll pay"

She looked at me surprised. "Ok, I guess that'll be fine..." she made a thinking face, "somewhere to eat... mmm... how about" she smiled at me, "a ramen

stand"

I had tears in my eyes. I ran to hug her " I LOVE YOU" I grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the inn.

I ran though the whole town till I found a ramen stand. As we looked I noticed guys eyeing her. God it was sick. Hello!! her brother is standing right here. Sure they didn't know that, but still. It's just wrong. I glared back at them, and I also used the fox's aura to help me a bit. They paled a little and walked off, my glare can be as deadly as Sasuke's. I think.

When we finally did find a ramen stand, I sat down and yelled my order.

After a bowl or two, I told her "you know you can tell me when you're sad or upset sakura... we're best friends, no we're siblings. You have to tell me when you're upset. From now on"

She nodded to me, "I'm sorry it just... a lot has happened and... well I just needed time to think"

Sakura Pov

I made him worry. I told myself I would never get him worry about me.

He has a lot on his plant already.

I don't want to cause him problems

As we walked to our meeting spot, I thought about last night, I made sure Naruto wasn't looking at me; he had a thinking face too. Probably thinking of Sasuke and Itachi

At the bar, I remember being so angry at Sasuke. Not once did I think of Delos. Why is that? I haven't thought of him in a while but as soon as Sasuke left. All the memories came back. They destroyed me.

Completely

I feel so guilty. I know I promised him I would try to move on, but it hurts so much to be with someone other than him. But when I'm with Sasuke I didn't think of him at all.

Does god love punishing me?

What did I do in my pass life that was so bad?

When we got to the meeting spot, Sai and Yamato were already there.

Of course, Kakashi wasn't there yet. Its sensei for peps sakes

We all said hello and waited.

I kind of got the feeling that Kakashi sensei wanted to give Sasuke more time.
