Forgiveness

visible secrets

It's been a week since they both started to train together and today was the first day in their second week sasuke stood in front of sakura he was aware of her glances , her blush and her smiles. He knew that she was still saving her feelings for him since her childhood
"How is your training?"
"Hn" Sasuke looked straight he wanted to leave as soon as possible but he had to do this if he doesn't to be awake early.
"I'm glad, Naruto did his best to get you out of there he even begged on his knees to the kages to not kill you" she wrapped his hand carefully
"Here done" Sakura patted his arm, proud of herself
He didn't waste any second to walk to the door
"Neh, sa..Sasuke-kun?" Sasuke rolled his eyes before he looked back he stared at her ,the same sakura he knew 10 years ago came back she looked to the right and left to every direction but his eyes. He smirked
" if you wanted to speak to someone it's an appropriate to look at then in the eyes"
Sakura looked up to him with surprise this was the first thing he said to her beside her name and his "hn", she finally heard his voice, he didn't say something nice but she finally heard his voice. He spoke she had spent so many days thinking that he might feel unwelcome because of the villagers.
He returned to his old self. Sasuke was confused why was she so happy
"Sasuke-kun if you would like let's have dinner to-"
She heard nothing but the slamming door, Sakura was shocked she stared at the door with wide eyes
What just happened?
________________________
Naruto was surprised to see Sasuke standing at his door waiting for him ready to leave to their training,
Naruto stood and looked at sasuke, Sasuke didn't react to Naruto's confusion
"What brought you here?" Naruto spoke looking at the sky.. he wasn't late.
Sasuke shrugged his shoulders and they began to walk None of them spoke, they just let their feet drive them to their destination and when they reached the never spoke anything they just prepare for their training but this time Sasuke attacked Naruto fast and wild. Naruto was surprised he dodged "Oi teme!" Naruto tried to calm Sasuke but Sasuke didn't slowed he just kept on moving fast.
Naruto didn't had a chance to attack but defend he was wondering what was inside the uchiha's head? What was behind that smirk? He was lost in thought until the smirk on Sasuke's face got wider at that he knew that Sasuke caught him and without giving Naruto a chance to breath he strangled him to the ground he realized his failure when he saw the dust surrounding them in the air and that smile.. That goddamen smile.
It made something inside of him awake, like a bird trying to get out of his cage, he was getting dizzy it either the sun or Sasuke's the cause of it and this uchiha wasn't giving him a chance to recover he was raising a brow at him with that stupid smile.
He couldn't read that smile but it like telling him that he got the upper hand here and Naruto the future hokage was the failure here and he was getting pissed
"Teme! Get off me!" Naruto tried to move his hands but his wrists were captured in Sasuke's hands
"Looks like I don't need more training to my hands"
Sasuke spoke then he looked down to his prey
"Didn't know you had to beg the others to never hurt me should I be grateful?" Sasuke asked Naruto looking at him in the eye while the other was looking everywhere but those dark eyes
"I didn't do it for you you bastard i did it for sakura too!" Naruto tried to hide himself in those half lies but he was caught Sasuke tightened his grip on Naruto's wrists and lean down close to The Uzumaki's face "Really now? I thought I was special I'm hurt" then he whispered to Naruto's red wars "Naruto "
Naruto tried again pushing Sasuke away "Te..teme!!" Then he cursed inside himself he was clear now as the sun above their heads now and he realized that when Sasuke pulled back and looked down loosening his grip daring The Uzumaki to deny now, Since when did he had trouble with speaking? He was Naruto Uzumaki not some hyuga.
Naruto knew he failed hiding his emotions now he almost closed his eyes when sasuke's fingers ran over his jawline and stroked his cheeks those dark eyes softened and that was enough to break the wall Naruto had built to keep his guard up, that strong wall had fell all the chains that kept his feelings to show had broken and he couldn't fight anymore so he appeared as his true self without pretending and without fear and he spoke his secret out with a whispered no one could hear but the uchiha
"It's good to have you back, Sasuke"
The smile Sasuke showed washes away all the nervousness inside Naruto he knelt further to his cheeks while whispering
"You know you're one of the reason I came back"
And then he painted a kiss on the Uzumaki's cheek

Hinata tightened her toes, they were cold ,so cold that she couldn't feel them but how was she able walking when she can't feel her feet? Where was they leading her? She walked between these huge trees with bare, cold feet. Then her eyes fell on the place were she and neji used to train away from the village
Something inside her burned then fell and despite the emptiness inside her chest it felt heavy, she looked down to herself why was she wearing the same black dress she wore for neji's funeral?
'You're too soft"
She was and she hated that about herself
'Stop looking back!'
These all were his words hinata looked up when she heard someone training her steps drove her there and despite her fast it like everything around her became wider and further but she still ran, all the flashbacks of her and neji training here was running through her head and the noises behind that tree began to get louder hinata panted to get the pressure on her chest to lightened why her steps were too slow? A lot of questions fill her head but she focused on her way
'You're too slow'
she was almost there the shoulders of  the person's training were showing he was still young
(Who was th—) before she continued her question the back of that kid were shown
"Neji!!"
And before she ran to him someone grabbed her elbow hinata looked back and then she was face to face with an old neji
"HINATA!!"
_____________
She opened her eyes sweat was covering her face, she looked around her this was her room, her ceiling and she was on her bed
(It was just a dream)
She should be happy but she wished that she never woken up, the sun was sneaking through her curtains to give her dark room a life in it.
Hinata looked to the sunlight then shut her eyes tight it was like she had been in a cave for years.
Hinata got up slowly her body was so tired and she didn't know the reason she was just asleep then she sighed this was another of her empty life, Nothing to do but wale up walking around to remind herself that she was alive then go back under her blankets to escape her reality.. because she hated it.
Hinata opened the curtains letting the sunlight hit her face and she closed her eyes tight it was too hard to open then she remembered why was it hard she opened her eyes again to the sun she was supposed to be in the training ground hinata gasped and rushed to her bathroom.

Sakura was smiling all day, she was happy Ino noticed that so she decided to tease her for not sharing her joy with her best friend
Ino smirked and leaned on the table watching the pink kunoichi
"what are smiling about?"
Sakura looked up the smile that was drawing her face with a pink cheeks didn't fade
"Huh? Oh nothing" Sakura went back to her  paper without saying anything.
Ino was her best friend so she knew how to pull out the words so she ignored her knowing that she would talk and Sakura did when she looked up again to her with a smirk
"Me and sasuke are going to a dinner tonight"
Ino looked up she wasn't excited or happy, she didn't like sasuke he had a whole past and at one point after the war ended she saw him as one of the reasons of the war but she didn't how so she dropped that but Ino smiled though she acted happy for sakura
"Ehh how cute, hope you enjoy it"
Sakura didn't like that she watched the blonde with her bright green eyes with suspicious And after a minute she gasped
"Eh Ino do you ... you know still like Sasuke?"
Ino raised her brow (what was that?) she doesn't her stupid crush had faded long time ago since the first day he stepped out of the village since the first she saw Shikamaru laying on the white bed after he chased Sasuke, ino smiled remembering herself before (hmph pathetic) she thoughtful that about herself forgetting that there was another person inside this room
"Innoooo"
Ino looked up to sakura remembering how she cried at gate begging Naruto to bring him back, Now he was here and Sakura's dream came true but she wasn't happy for sakura she was worried and yet..
Sakura thought she still like him what a nonsense!
"Sakura why would I look at someone like him?"
Sakura felt a little offended, why did ino said that?She was aware of the other's feelings towards the uchiha but ino shouldn't he had changed ،ino should know that too, and despite showing ino that she didn't like what she heard about her teammate ino didn't took it back she got up and left the room.
