Naruto: Will love ever find us.

Back to Work

Sakura's POV

Waking up without Sasuke hurt. An emptiness in my chest that I had long forgotten about. I curled myself into a ball and cried. I knew he would be back. He had to come back right? I mean he proposed to me, sort of. I love him, more than anything. I finally found the will to get out of bed, and go downstairs. I walked to the kitchen to start making breakfast. I miss him already and it hasn't even been a day yet. What am I going to do, well I've made it years without him I think I can survive a few weeks or months if I have to.

I poured a glass of mild and put it on the table. Once breakfast was done I sat down and ate alone. I had gotten so used to having company, speaking of which, where is Raven? She might be staying with Gaara. I finished my food, and cleaned up. After I had cleaned up after breakfast I washed my hands, I dried them and faced the counter, u put my hands on the edge of the counter and leaned on it. My head down trying not to let it all get to me, trying not to cry. One, one tear fell, I only allowed on.

Someone turned me around and wiped the tear from my cheek. I though he was gone.

"I though you left?"

"I did."

"But?"

"I had to see you one more time, I come back and you're crying."

"Yeah well its only one tear, not a river."

"It's still a tear, it is still crying."

"I know, so okay, so your back, so you saw me, you should leave now."

"Sakura, look at me." He lifted my chin up for me to look at him.

"I will come back to you when I am finished with what I need to do."

"You better."

He smirked and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around his shoulders then his neck, as he lifted me up onto the counter. Once I was on the counter his hands were all over me, and mine, him. We finally pulled away to breathe. He put his forehead to mine.

"I love you Sakura."

That only made me want to cry more, but no more crying. So I held onto him tighter. He noticed and wrapped his arms around me. He held me to him and whispered sweet nothings into my ear. He pulled away and took me off of the counter. My hands on his chest. "Sasuke?"

His hands ran up and down my arms to comfort me, it was working a little. I breathed in his scent, and then let him go. I nodded and he kissed my forehead.

He began to walk away and I knew he was about to be gone for who knows how long. "Sasuke!"

He turned right when I hit him, he kept us up right and on out feet, as I kissed him long and hard. I pulled away. "Okay no you can go."

He smirked at me and kissed my forehead one more time and I closed my eyes. He was gone, but I could still feel his lips. I sighed and walked back to my room to get ready for the day. Getting dressed and ready seemed to take forever, when I knew it had only taken but a few minutes. I left the house and started towards the hospital, time for work. On my way there, I saw Gaara. He was alone, and I walked up to him. Everyone greeted him formally, as I greeted him as an old friend, we even did a side ways hug. Raven is good for him, as he is good for her. "Hey Gaara, has Raven been staying with you?"

"Yes, she has, if that is a problem, I could bring her home after you get off of work today."

I shook my hand in front of me, "No, no, no that is not necessary, I only wished to know where she has been. She may stay with you as long as she likes, and if you can put up with her." He smirked at that. "I just wanted to make sure that she was safe, and finding out that she has been with you, I know that she is well protecting, and safe from harm. Well I should be at work, so I guess that I will see you around. It was nice to see you again Gaara."
