A Second Chance

-1-

A/N: kishimoto owns Naruto. Thank you for reading this. Feel free to comment, vote, and share. Well, fudge. This is my second story. Damn! How the hell am I supposed to keep up with not one but two stories. WARNING: SCHOOL IS STARTING SOON. HAVE FUN WHILE YOU CAN.

(This is eight years later)

A fire gleamed in a dark forest. A tent was next to it, and a raven-haired, 26 year-old man was sitting on a log near the campfire. Should I go back? He thought. Sasuke rummaged through his duffel bag and pulled out a picture.

"I'm coming back. I hope you accept me," Sasuke whispered to himself. He hated his ass. He left Sakura, and killed Sakura more ways than one. Sasuke knew she hated him. He didn't hate her. Sasuke stood up and opened the zipper of his tent and laid dow on his sleeping bag. Sasuke was still waiting for another mission. He hasn't had one in awhile, and Sasuke hasn't had a message to go back yet. Sasuke closed his eyes, and dreamed of him and Sakura. Living together, peacefully.

Sasuke woke up to a his hawk staring at him. He gasped slightly, and noticed a note attached to it's leg. It unrolled it, and read the message.

Sasuke, I think it time for you to come back. You've got no missions so far. Mebuki died and her funeral is on Monday. You should come,

Kakashi

Sad. His mother in-law had died. He had always liked her. Should I go? He questioned himself, narrowing his eyebrows at the note. He sighed.

"Well, watch out Sakura....here comes Sasuke......" he said smiling.

A pink hair kunochi was writing furiously on a piece of paper. She has alot of records to cover. She had been there all night. Her daughter was staying at her father's house. Sakura sighed. Fuck it Sasuke, you just had to leave me 'cuz of those damn missions, she thought. She shook the image of her ex out of her head.

 "No use of thinking of that motherfucker," she explained to herself silently while she wrote with her pen quickly. The door to her office opened. It was Shizune. 

"Sakura, don't tire yourself out," she said, rubbing her shoulder. 

"Come on. Help us prepare for your mother's funeral," Shizune said. Then the moment she finished, she noticed that was the wrong thing to say. Sakura broke down in tears. In ran down her cheeks and fell to the documents. 

"This...is....all...my....fault....." she said through sobs. She started to remember how her mother died. Mebuki was carrying a box of paper bombs, and someone accidentally set off the bombs, and Mebuki was dismantled into smithereens.

"Sakura, it's not your fault. Understand that," she said. Sakura cried and she wiped her tears and sniffled.  

"I should been the one who died!" She broke out. Shizune comforted her, and Sakura looked at her. She stood up and sighed. 

"Alright. Lets go," she said. Sakura and Shizune walked out the room. No time to sleep now.

Almost there, Sasuke thought, as the entrance of Konoha was going into view. Kakashi was leaning on the pillar, and her waved at him as he approached closer. 

"How long did it take?" Kakashi asked as he looked at his watch.

"About a day," he huffed. 

"Well, your mother's funeral is almost finished. Get there if you don't want to be last," Kakashi said, nodding at him. Sasuke use his teleportation justu. He arrived, but kept a distance. Sasuke saw Naruto and the rest of the gang staring at a grave. He saw Sakura. 

She was sobbing loudly. A dark haired girl with glasses was holding her hand, and she had tears rolling down her face as well. Sasuke wondered who she was. The crowd scattered and Sakura turned around and saw Sasuke. Shit, he thought. Sakura looked at him. She slammed her fist into his stomach, and he spit out blood. She walked away, and his father walked towards him and sighed. 

"You deserved that," He said, looking at his son in-law. 

"Yeah, thanks for reminding me," Sasuke huffed, nodding at his father. His father shook his head and passed him, and he felt a slap on the back, and Sasuke turned around and saw Naruto with a smile on his face.

"She hates you, Sasuke. The chick really does," he said, nodding. Sasuke choked and held his neck. Sasuke coughed out blood and looked at Naruto.

"Who's the girl?" Sasuke asked. Naruto barked a laugh.

"You'll see," he replied. Sasuke sighed as he walked away. Hinata waved at him, and he gave her a friendly wave back. Two children followed Naruto and his wife as they walked away from him. Sasuke walked to his dad's house and knocked the door. It opened and his father wiped his tears. He had been crying.

"Hey," Kizashi said. 

"Are you nervous about visiting Sakura?"

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"It's pretty obvious that she hates the fuck outta me."

"I'm sure she will forgive you." 

"Dad, how could you say that with such confidence?"

"I've dealt with something like this before with Mebuki."

"Really?"

"Yeah, I kissed a different girl in a bar other than Mebuki. In time, she forgave me. She understood I was drunk."

Sasuke nodded. 

"Okay, I'll try," he said nervously as his father wished him good luck. Sasuke walked away, and he saw the Uchiha compound come into view. They prepared it and altered it, and it was a saying of thanks from the village for saving the world. Sasuke and Sakura lived together for a year, and did some....how do I put this.... Extra things along the way. Sasuke remembered when he proposed. Then the day of their wedding came near. Kakashi had told him to do the missions after his wedding, but he did them anyway, but got lost in the chaos, and things went downhill. Sasuke opened the door with his key, and Sakura and the girl he saw from eariler was sitting down next to Sakura on the couch. She stood up.

"Sarada, go to your room," she said, sighing. Sakura looked at him.

"What the hell do you want?" She asked.

"Some answers," he replied. Sakura raised an eyebrow.

"I think you can guess who she is yourself," Sakura said.

"You mean....."

"Yes, you idiot. She's our daughter."

"W-When did you—"

"After our wedding. Or rather, what was supposed to be our wedding." Sasuke looked down.

"S-Sorry?" He tried.

"It's too late for that," she replied.

"Well, how can I forgive your goddamn ass for everything you've done," she continued, gritting her teeth.

"Get out."

"What?"

"Get out before I whoop your ass."

"Okay! Damn." Sasuke opened the front door and went out the compound. Sasuke could feel some tears dripping down his cheeks. Why am I crying? Am I in l-love again? He thought.

"Sakura, I can't believe I fell in love with you.......again."

A/N sorry! I didn't reread it. Tell me if i have any mistakes. *bows*
