Two Hearts as One
Author's Note: Hey people it's me again and I am back. Sorry for the delay but I have been having writers block. I decide that this is going to be the last chapter because I am ending this story with a surprise just to let you know. But, this is not the end for our heroes, lets just say you might want to add me to author's alert.
The sky was gloomily, it was gray outside and rainy. It seem like the weather was connected to everyone's feelings not to mention in the Mist village it always rain. But, something was different about this rain. It came down harder than usual. The streets were empty and people were inside their homes spending time with their family. The hospital was quite and peaceful. It has been two days since she was rush there in a critical condition. If it wasn't for her amazing healing chakra she would have died. Now, she is in a coma and the Doctor thinks she won't ever wake up, they even moved her back to Konoha Hospital for her to be with her friends.
Neji sat in the waiting room he was leaning on his legs, usually he will be inside but Tsunade decided that he should wait outside while she record Sakura's vitals. He stood at the hospital 24/7 and, the only time he wasn't there was when he went home to take a shower and change her clothes. Tsunade even moved Sakura into a private room and ordered the nurses to not kick Neji out even after visiting hours. It made since he was her boyfriend and was planning on staying with her forever he love her and he was mad at himself for not telling her. Tsunade came out and Neji stood up, to go inside but, she stopped him.
"I need to talk to you" she said walking into her office. Neji looked into the glass window of Sakura's room and left to follow Tsunade.
"What's wrong "he said sitting down. Tsunade sat down going over Sakura's file. "Neji she isn't getting any better, you can't sit in this hospital forever…I need you to return to ANBU they need you there, you're their leader."
"Not, at this point Sakura's a strong person she will get better…"
"You are not helping her by being here she would want you to go back to work and help people you know that".
"I'll agree to go back only on small missions nothing big because I'm not ready for it yet." he said standing up. Tsunade nodded. "Thank you" she said. Neji nodded and turned away walking out the door.
Sakura looked peaceful in the bed. Her face wasn't pale and her skin had color to it. No one believed she was in a coma she looked like she was sleeping. She even was dress in her own pajamas, a white/pink long sleeve cotton shirt and pink sweats. She has been in the same position for two days already. The usual lying on her back hands to her side and head straight. The door open and in walked Saskue he sat by her bed. At times when Neji wasn't around he will seek in and sit by her talking to her about how she needs to wake up already because she needs to train so they could fight and see who was truly stronger.
"You are being so annoying" he said sensing Neji coming he got up and whispered in her ear.
"Wake up fast, your boyfriend is losing his mind" he said smirking.
It was true, Neji was losing his mind he wasn't showing it but, everyone knew that if Sakura die it will feel like he did to. Their hearts were two if one was in pain the other was in pain. If one was happy the other one was happy, if one was to die the other one was to die. That's how the heart works when you are truly in love. He didn't bother to go in he had a mission to go into town and meet with someone who was asking for him he didn't know who but, he needed fresh air anyway. It's not that he was growing soft because Neji can't' go soft it's just his mind wasn't focusing the way it use to. Ever since he met her, her smile, her voice the way her hair would fall into her face making her look like a small child she was changing him into a better man.
On the way to town Neji saw couples kissing and walking hand in hand he than got mad at himself for letting Sakura get hurt just to protect him. He's the man he should have protected her. He was thrown out of his thoughts when Naruto and Hinata came to him holding hands. He never likes the idea of them together but, he was glad that she was safe. "Hey Neji" she said. "Where you handing" said Naruto
"Town to meet some folks "he said
"So, how Sakura is is she….okay." said Hinata
"She's asleep" he said. Naruto put a arm around him. "Hang in there Neji, Sakura's going to wake up" he said.
"Yeah, well I'll see you around" said Neji leaving Naruto and Hinata there. Naruto turned to Hinata.
"She is Going to wake up right…Hinata" he said quietly. "Yeah, we know Sakura she'll be fine" said Hinata. Naruto wrap his arms around her small waist.
"Seeing Sakura and Neji going through all this makes me think about the future. Hinata I love you and I want to spend my life with you so will you…marry me, spend the rest of your life with me?" he asked. Hinata stared at him in shock. "Yes Naruto, I will "she said as they kissed each-other.
Neji was half way to the spot where he was supposed to meet the people that asked for him when he ran into Tenten and Lee. "Hey, how are you" said Tenten. Neji didn't' answer. "Why ask if you know the answer" he said.
"So, where you going" said Lee. "Somewhere" said Neji.
"Listen just because you are…." said Tenten before Lee covers her mouth. "See you around "said Lee. Neji glared at the two and left. Tenten hit him as he fell onto the floor." Don't hit me" he said.
"You know what being teammates with you and Neji made me realize that…I really hate the both of you" she said skipping off. Lee stared at her as she walked off. "GIRLS" he yelled standing up to see a bunch of girls walking to him and cracking their knuckles. He quickly ran off.
Never in a million years had he expected to see the Osamu and the Tomoko again. Last time he saw them was at the Mist village where they were beginning a new life and forgetting about the old. The same boys ran to him hugging his legs. As, Hiroshi, Youuko, and Keiko came over, "we are so glad you could meet with us" they said.
"So, what is this about" said Neji.
"Please let us take a walk "said Hiroshi. Neji agreed wondering what was going on.
"We want to thank you again for everything that you did for us" said Hiroshi.
"Yeah, turns out we are happy together and we owe it all to you and the others." said Keiko.
"Is that it" said Neji
" Actually no you see we know about Sakura and her being in a coma we just want to tell you that we are here if you need us and to not give up hope because look at us we never gave up hope and look at us now we are all together. Maybe the thing to wake her up will be the words you never said to her you know the words that you feel in your heart. Sometimes by just saying those words could make a huge difference. "Said Hiroshi. Neji stared at them.
"I guess I could try" he said.
"Good, now when she does wake up make sure you tell her we said hello" said Keiko. Neji nodded and walked away. Maybe they were right, maybe Sakura just needed to hear those words that he wanted to tell her. He made his way to the hospital wondering if she will ever wake up.
Her vitals signs were good, but she still was asleep. Neji walked in sitting in the chair by her bed. He took her warm hand holding it in his. He will always sit by her but, never talk to her. He felt weird talking to a sleeping person. "Sakura…I'm here" he said leaning forward. He paused, "I'm not going anywhere okay…You need to hurry up and get better, I…miss you" he said. He turned away from her, " Sakura I have to tell you something…I was planning on telling you when we returned from the mission but, than the table turned and you had to play hero" he said a little mad he turned to her.
"Sakura I love you and I want to spend my life with you that's why you need to wake up so we could be together" he said looking at her. He wanted an answer but, all he got was peace and quiet .He stood up and kiss her forehead and started to make his way to the door.
Sakura's heart rate quickly went up but, Neji didn't hear it. Her hand moved slowly and her pretty eyes opened.
"Neji…, I love…you too" she said her voice wasn't perfect she sounded tired and weak. Neji eyes widen and he turned to face her. She was awake and talking. She smiled at him. Neji walked over to her. It seem that time had stop than speed up again when he reach her and kiss her lips. Their kiss was filled with passion and a desire for each-other. They both smiled as their kiss never broke, this was their love for each-other a love that no one can break.
A day later after everyone left for visiting Sakura her and Neji lied on her bed eating different kinds of candy. They smiled and laughed at their face expressions when they ate a bad one. "I'm glad I'm here Neji" she said putting a candy in her mouth. He smirked and agreed. "Me too" he said kissing her when the door opened. Tsunade walked in making them both stop and looking at her. "Hey…Tsunade" said Sakura
Tsunade had papers in her hand.
"I got your test results back. Turns out your good to go home but you have to take it easy for a while "she said. " Okay" said Sakura.
"There's something else you both need to know "said Tsunade. They looked at her confuse.
"Sakura, you're going to have a baby. You're pregnant"
