Married to Sasuke Uchiha [COMPLETED]

Chapter 35 - Waiting Moments

That night, Sakura laid in bed, staring at the ceiling. She looked over to Sasuke, who was already sleeping beside her.

She didn't know if he kissed her because he wanted  to or because it was just a task. He even dropped Karin's  ring like it meant absolutely nothing to him.

'...he... likes me too, right?' she thought. She wanted to ask him if he had any feelings for her, but since Karin just broke his heart recently, she didn't want to rush him into another relationship just yet; although technically, they were already "married".

Sakura blushed at the thought. What would it be like if this was real..? To be able to stay with him forever, to support him, and to even have a family...it sounded like a perfect picture.

But she also knew, she shouldn't rush into things. She will be graduating from high school next year, only turning 18, so she was still very young, and Sasuke is turning 19 next year. If they were to make their marriage real, she wasn't sure if she was able to stay with him forever. Marriage meant a lifetime commitment, and she was pretty sure in the future when they're a bit older, they might want a divorce.

'So...the original plan is the only option...' Sakura sighed and grasped her blanket, pulling it up to her shoulders. But if they stick to the original plan, she didn't know how she would bear with the thought of being apart from Sasuke. Even though, she already broke the rule of not falling in love, she knew she had to leave in nearly 2 weeks.

'Then, I should at least tell him before the marriage will end. I should be honest and tell him I really feel.'

The next morning, they both woke up at the same time and Sakura cursed herself for not waking up earlier. She wanted to leave for school first to avoid going together. It was honestly kind of awkward for her since she was the one who asked him to kiss her.

"You ready?" Sasuke asked quietly as he opened the door.

"Yea." Sakura muttered as she grabbed her school bag and followed after him.

Like it was normal, he reached over and held her hand casually. After that kiss yesterday, he was sure as hell he wanted to stay with her. No matter what, he wasn't going to let her date Gaara or any other guy.

She is his wife after all, legally. If they were legally married, then...this marriage wasn't fake at all.

It was only fake under their conditions, but if they remove all their immaturity from when they first met, and they actually love each other...this marriage was definitely real.

Sasuke made a small smile at that thought. This marriage was real.

...he knew he had to tell her that he didn't want to stick with their original plan.

When they arrived at school, as usual, they walked over towards their group of friends.

"Heeey guys!" Juugo greeted and specifically winked at Sakura.

Sakura just smiled at them.

"Oh my gosh! Can you believe it? We're seniors after this week!" Ino squealed and hung onto Sai's arm.

"Well then, we'll be graduating high school," Sai made a faint smile.

"Oh yea... that means you guys will not be attending here anymore..." Sakura muttered. She's gotten so used to their presence in school...it'd be weird without Sasuke and the others now.
