He watched in the darkness as she leaned against the wall of the school. He watched as her hair swirled in the breeze and imagined the feel of it in his fingertips. He moved slightly making a near-by bush rustle. Her boyfriend was cheating on her again. He knew it. He saw it himself. All he needed was a chance…and he waited silently for that chance.

Sakura took a deep breath in as she tried to hold her composure. She had been waiting for about 15 minutes now. Her eyes scanned the area hoping to see him somewhere.

A bush a few feet away from her rustled suddenly, which was strange seeing as how there was no breeze. She ignored it as she noticed a figure walking slowly towards to her. The person she had been waiting for. Sasuke Uchiha.

She stood up awkwardly and dusted herself off and glared up at him as he neared her. “Fix your face; it looks really ugly right now.” He said with no emotion whatsoever.

She ignored his rudeness with the best she could. “What took you so long?'' She asked. “I was busy.” He mumbled. Sakura swallowed, getting ready to ask him the question she had been waiting to ask him for two weeks.

“Um…but people are telling me that you're going out with Ino and that-” What happened next happened so fast; she didn't have time to react. He grabbed her by the hair pulling her closer to him and held her shoulder with such intensity that she knew she would have a bruise in the morning.

“Who's telling you this!?” Sasuke roared in her ear. Sakura began to tremble. Never had Sasuke touched her like this before…it was…frightening. “J-Just…a few girls.” She answered quickly.

“And you rather listen to a few girls than listen to me!?” He yelled as he pushed her away from him. She stumbled a bit, but then stood up straight again, tears threatening to fall.

“Sakura, you know I love you and no one else…please, don't bring up Ino again.”
Sakura still stood frozen in her statue like state, but nodded slowly.

He then began to walk away, but bent down and whispered in her ear before he left, “I'll see you tomorrow.”

She still stood there…minutes later. Just staring off into space. It was then that it occurred to her that he still had not answered the question…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

He took a deep breath in. Why won't she just leave him? He treated her like she was nothing and yet she stayed with him! Maybe it was time to make his presence known.
