Military Love

Chapter Four


If he doesn't come for us, when he doesn't come for us, Sakura sighed, she was already having doubts about whether her love would come or not. We'll need a back up route, someone to fall back on if he leaves me- no, us.

"What if-" Sakura paused, her eyes narrowing, "Come on out, you don't have to hide," a bitter smile took the place of her worried expression, "You didn't have to come, I told him one month, not you,"

A cool voice snapped her out of her calm faze, "Don't make him come to get you Sakura, you shouldn't have tried to reach him anyway," The woman spat, tossing back the letter, "He has moved on, so should you,"

She bit back the urge to laugh, "Oh, is this because little Kin a developed a crush on my lover?" Kin glared daggers at the blossom beauty before her, "He is not yours," Sakura let out a harsh chuckle.

"Then why have you stopped him from reading my memo?" Sakura traced her finger across her stomach, she wasn't ever this cold, but for Kin this was an exception,

"Because he can do better," Kin snapped, the only reason why she joined Akatsuki was because of Sakura, and then she had met Itachi. She had fallen in love, and fallen hard,but Itachi-Kun was always after her.

"No, it's because you can't stand that he could never love you," Sakura resisted the guilty feeling in her chest, tugging her to embrace the distressed girl in front of her, Kin looked up at her former mentor,

"It's because, it's because I-Itachi-san couldn't stop thinking about, about you," at this point the emotionally tormented girl collapsed on Sakura's lap, letting tears fall down her pale face.

"Kin," Sakura flung her arms around the woman weeping before her, this was as good as time as any to practice her mothering, Sakura stroked her hand through Kin's auburn locks, "Hush, Kin, its okay, it isn't a big deal,"

Kin shook her head fiercely, "I do everything and yet all he can say is, 'I wonder where she is?' I can't stand it!" Kin looked up, teary eyed, "This is stupid, I am sorry, but I can't, I-I wont give him this," Kin ripped Sakura's note into pieces, Sakura could only watch in complete anger and sympathy.


She pushed the brunette off her and stood facing away from the girl, "Kin, don't think I won't get him back, your puppy love is, it's," Sakura didn't know what she was saying, was she a hypocrite? She may have held feelings for Naruto, but now she didn't, right?

Sakura grasped the girls chin, "It doesn't matter; merely a faze and worthless," These words were not meant for Kin, Sakura knew they were directed towards herself. Kin stared at Sakura's eyes that held many inner conflicts and wiped away the last few 'pointless' tears.

"Hai, and do not think I will let you have him, you forget he has no clue where you are while I am by his side every day," Sakura nodded watching her former follower run away; Kin was just seven when Sakura was fourteen; both knew so little then and now, and now they were in a whole other world.

Before this, any of this had started Sakura had been a part of the Akatsuki, one of the top gangs in Kohona, which was saying a lot considering Kohona city was over ruled by drugs and alcohol.

But once Sakura's mother discovered her secret life, they moved away from Sakura's life, away from her gang which had adopted her as their family, and away from Itachi. Her mother snatched her away from the one person who she loved, making them sneak around like criminals.

Andthat was exactly what they were.


"Are you going to eat that?" A light voice blushing behind Ten-ten asked as she scrunched her nose sliding the bowl of unknown substances towards the boy. He smiled, placing a hand out in front of her, "I am Lee, rock lee, and you-you are a true vision of youth,"

She had a gut feeling to shave off his eye brows but resisted the consistent urge, "Ten-ten, so Lee, Rock Lee, how'd you end up here?" Her hands covering her face, except for her one eye that stared at Lee suspiciously.

Streams of tears fled down his face, "I volunteered my youthful assistances my dear, dear sweet Nine-Nine, for sensei," Flames flared in his plate shaped orbs, Ten-ten sweat dropped, "It's Ten-ten,"

Lee nodded understandingly, "So how didyou end up here?" Ten-ten quickly shot up from her seat, shaking her head, "I-I have to go," Lee was left dumb struck in a trail of dust.


Coach,

"Eh," Naruto scratched his head, re reading the note, "We have a dock?"

And for some reason Sakura felt her heart skip a beat.
