We've Grown. (Naruto FanFiction)

Chapter 17

   "What are you even doing here?" Sarada asked Haron, in a hushed tone, as they stood in a guest room. He smiled slightly, "I wanted to see you. You never returned my texts, or calls."
"We're on a break, meaning we're taking a break from each other. Which includes communication." He sighed, "But I was genuinely worried. The least you could've done was text me saying you were home safe." She rolled her eyes, "Not that you care."
"If I didn't care, I wouldn't be here."
"Oh really?" She asked while crossing her arms over her chest. The fact that her parents were in the next room made her bold, although she was internally freaking out.

"Why else do you think I'm here?" He asked her, "Honestly, I think you're here to keep an eye on me, rather than checking if I'm okay. Ever since I told you that I was going to Bolt's, you've been acting even more jealous than ever." He rolled his eyes, "Why do you always have to bring him into everything? I literally come to visit you, and you say it's because I'm jealous! I can't win with you."
"No you can't win with me. You know why? Because you lost me when you hit me." He sighed, before raising his hand, making her involuntary flinch.
His hand connected with his brown hair, as he ran his fingers through it.

"I-I'm sorry, Sarada. I know I can't say it enough, but genuinely, I am so sorry. I never meant to hurt you, I just can't help it sometimes. I get so angry, and I can't stop myself. I'm sorry." Her eyes started to water, and she took a step away from him, sucking in her breath when she felt herself bump into the wall, "You know I want to believe you, every time you say that,b-but I can't anymore. I've forgiven you, just for you to do it again." He looked her in the eyes, making her nauseous from her anxiety.
"I-I can't do this anymore."
"Please, Sarada, forgive me. I'm sorry."
He said while putting his hands on her shoulders, forcing her closer to him.

"I-I" She tried to spit out as he trapped her between him and a wall. "I-I think we should end this. This isn't healthy for us. I can't continue living in fear, and you shouldn't be with a person who doesn't fully trust you." He shook his head, "No, don't say that. We're perfect for each other. Baby, I'm sorry."
She shook her head while his hold on her tightened, hurting her shoulders in the process, "Stop it, Haron." His brown eyes met her's, and they seemed to hold sympathy, until they noticed the small bruise on the base of my neck, that she tried so desperately to side.

"What's that?" He asked, before moving his hand to her neck, and trying to wipe the red hickey away. She couldn't think fast enough, as the grip he had on her seemed to tighten by the second. "What did you do last night?"
"I-I stayed home, a-and did homework."
He scrunched his eyebrows in anger, "Homework? You can't expect me to believe that. Do you think I'm stupid?" He asked, while his hand around her neck gave her severe anxiety, as the air in the room seemed to fade slowly. "Do you?" He yelled, making her jump while put her hand against his forearm.
"I-I-I don't." She stuttered out, as tears began to fall from her eyes. She didn't know what to do, as she hoped that someone would intervene before he did anything to her, but she knew it probably wouldn't happen.

"You must think I'm stupid." She shook ber head,
"I don't, Haron." She managed to stutter out, before he slammed her against the wall, while still gripping her by the neck, making her throat ache in pain.
"You're a whore, you know that?" She started becoming numb all over her body, "I-I'm sor-", She tried to say, only for him to cut her off. "Oh you'll be sorry." Her vision became spotty, as she tried looking at Haron. Her hands clawed at his forearm, scratching him roughly in the process as her eye lids became heavy. She was moments away from fainting from asphyxiation and there was nothing she could do about it.

"H....elp." He laughed at her attempt to call for help, as his hand just got tighter. He was saying things, but she didn't hear them due to the lack of oxygen getting to her brain.
Just as she lost feeling to her limbs, she was suddenly on the floor, coughing harshly. She was crouched over while coughing so harshly that she was seconds away from regurgitating her dinner. Her vision was still spotty as she heard a stern voice say, "If you don't get away from her, I'll get her father." The voice was feminine, but it wasn't her mother's. However, it was a voice she knew all too well. "Sarada." She heard Hinata say, as her gentle hands held her's. "Look at me." She said while stroking her fingers softly. "Honey, you can open your eyes, he's gone." As she said that, she cautiously opened her onyx eyes, and sure enough, he was gone.
