Arigato


Sasuke-kun, where are you now? Sakura sighed for the hundredth time that day.

She had that thought every day. Every single minute she wasn't busy studying, or working. Every night his words and his eyes haunted her. All of her friends told her to forget about him, but she just could not do that. She loved him too much. It's not that she hadn't tried to forget him. She tried it every day. Every single minute she struggled with her feelings.

It was four years now, since he had left her all alone. Her friends tried to cheer her up. Ino-pig took her shopping countless times. Hinata and Naruto treated her ramen every lunch. Tenten and Neji trained with her to detract her mind. Lee asked her out 1,000 times. Kakashi and Tsunade-sama helped her as much as they could, but after 3 years, everyone gave up. It was too late to save him anymore. He was dead now.

Orochimaru needed a new vessel within 3 years. Now that those 3 years had passed, there was no hope left. Naruto blamed himself for it. He had cried many times about it. He had become so much stronger, yet he hadn't been able to return Sasuke. It was not because of his lack of strength and knowledge. No, that was not the problem. He was stronger than many of his age and had learned quite many jutsu. It was because there was no track of Orochimaru or Sasuke. So everyone had given up on him. But not Sakura.

Sakura had always had faith in him. He wouldn't die. He would not become a vessel of Orochimaru's. It was haunting her dreams though. She constantly had dreams about the return of Sasuke. In the dreams snakes would came out of his sleeves, destroying Konoha because he no longer was Sasuke. Only his body was left.

But that was only in her dreams. As soon as she woke up, she shook her head and grabbed the old picture of team 7 that was always lying next to her bed to comfort her. As soon as she looked in the boys onyx eyes, she knew he was still alive. Being the boy he had always been. Within her heart she knew he was. Or was it just denial? All of her friends shook their heads full of sadness.

The others slowly continued with their lives, accepting the fact that Sasuke would never come back. Ino hooked up with Shikamaru and didn't have as much time for Sakura as she used to have. That meant she didn't know about Sakura's plans. Her plans about finding Sasuke and helping him do whatever was necessary. Everything was planned already. She had trained a lot to become stronger in order to reach her goal. The fact that she had studied medics was a major plus as well. She could heal herself if she was hurt during her journey.

Actually Sakura was just coming back from her private training session in the woods. She had decided that she was strong enough now. She would visit the Hokage tomorrow, to ask her two weeks off.

My journey is about to begin, starting tomorrow, she thought as she was walking back to her apartment.

It was late and dark outside. Almost midnight, Sakura thought. That's when the ghosts come out. She smirked - she wasn't superstitious.

As she was about to enter her apartment, she felt something sticky under her feet. As she looked down she saw a dark pool on the ground. Now she noticed that her hand felt kind of sticky too… Carefully she brought her hand to her nose and smelt blood! She stiffened. What the hell was happening here? She looked inside her house, but couldn't see anything, because it was too dark. With her free hand she looked for the light switch. When she found it she turned the lights on and she saw there was indeed blood on the floor.

Rapidly she walked inside and went straight to her bedroom. She had a bad feeling about this.

When she entered her room, she was shocked. She couldn't believe what was happening. There he was, bleeding but alive… Uchiha Sasuke was alive, and… he was lying on her bed.

She knew what she had to do, when she saw him bleeding. As fast as she could, she healed his wounds. He would be alright, but he needed to rest now. He was already asleep, so she took a chair and sat next to him. She hadn't been wrong. This was Sasuke. Her Sasuke-kun. He was back, and he had come to her first. Tomorrow she would know why. As for now, she would be sleeping in this chair. She was too tired to stay awake. It took her five minutes before she fell asleep.

Sasuke opened his eyes. That was already strange, because he thought he would have died. He had lost much blood. He was afraid he would die yesterday when he looked for Sakura and didn't find her at her house. He didn't have the strength anymore to get himself to anyone else.

When he tried to get up, expecting a lot of pain, he was surprised that it went smoothly. There was almost no pain at all. He looked at his body and it was covered in gore and mud. He looked around and saw her on a chair next to the bed he was lying on.

Sakura.

Had she done this? Could she do this? He didn't know. It had been four years since he had left and he had not been in contact with anybody. Well he would find out when she woke up.

An alarm clock next to the bed told him it was six in the morning. He looked around and found it quite remarkable that Sakura's room didn't seem to be as feminine as he had expected.

Suddenly he heard a sound. Sasuke looked at Sakura and saw her opening her eyes, only to immediately close them again and yawn. As she opened her eyes again she looked him right in the eyes.

"Sasuke-kun," was the only thing she said as she looked him right into his onyx eyes.

He stared back into her green orbs.

"Sakura," he said coldly, still being the same old cold-hearted bastard he used to be.

Sakura gently smiled as she said, "You're back. Everyone thought you had died a year ago. Everyone except me," her gentle smile turned into a sad one.

"That was what I expected," he answered.

No explanation at all. Not about his past few years, not about why he had left. Nothing.

It explained why he has come to me though, she thought.

"I see. Well, what are you going to do now?" Sakura asked.


It's a lot better now without the errors huh? ;)

Can't say it enough, Captain Cheese, you're the best!

Review please :D
