Phoenix Fire (Book 2/6 of the Phoenix of Konoha series)

A Scar I Tried to Avoid

~Emi's P.O.V~

I woke up in Sasu's arms. I thought we were in the Uchiha compound for a minute.

Then I realized; I was in the hospital.

Sasu had his arms around me, and he was sleeping peacefully next to me. I curled myself into him. That's when I winced in pain.

The wound under my chest hurt like hell. Sasu woke to the wimper I let out. "Shhh." He says. "Its okay. Are you alright?" I nod, wincing again.

then it occurs to me. "How did the nurses not notice you? and i thought you left?" I ask. "well..I may or may not have come in through the window after you were asleep......?" Sasu says.

I roll my eyes and sigh. "Well..I'm glad your with me Sasuke." I say.

"I will always be there for you." he says. "You know that." I smile. "Love you, Sasu.." "Love you too, my Flower."

he replies. I kiss him, wrapping my arms around his neck. He responds by pulling me closer to himself, his arms around my back.

We break apart, and Sasuke stands. He turns to look at me and says, "I have to go." "alright." I sayflowerreful okay?" he nods, walking out the door.

Soon, there is another knock on my rooms door. "Come in." I say. Who else walks in but Ino. "Hey!" she says. "Hi." I respond. She was holding some flowers. They were Blue Violets. My favorite. "Violets?" I ask. "Mhmm." she replies. "I figured you'd want some fresh flowers. The other ones are dried up." I look over on my table, and sure enough, dead flowers. "How long was I......?" I asked. "A few days." Ino says. "Who won against who?" So, she explained. "Umm......." she says. "You know, the preliminary rounds are almost over." "yeah?" I ask. "You should come with me." she dud. "I can't. Not until I'm discharged." I say. "Sasuke got that taken care of. He said you woke up, and your wound heals completely. But there is a scar." I get up and go into the bathroom and see that there was a scar there. I sigh coming out. "Well...there goes my attempt at trying to not get another scar." I say.
