Last chapter:

Sakura dove back into his body and made her way throughout his body making sure no trace of the curse seal remained. When she was satisfied she returned to her body and let her hand fall from his shoulder. Before she had let her hand fall though she poured the last of her chakra to put the Uchiha to sleep and after that she collapsed only a sliver of chakra left that was barely keeping her alive and functioning.

Mistakes

She felt the cool breeze whisper over her skin and the hot rays of the sun all around her. She opened her eyes to find herself in a large clearing; a stream of clear blue water rushing past her. She looked down at herself and was surprised to find herself wearing a white silky kimono; a bridal Kimono. She brought her shaky hands up to her hair and found her hair a lot longer then she usually kept it. Her silky pink locks now reached well past her shoulders and it was in an intricate up do with a Sakura blossom tucked above her ear. She got to her feet and looked around the clearing again… it was beautiful. There were Sakura trees all around the clearing and they were all in full bloom, the breeze carrying many of the soft blossoms around the clearing. When she turned around, her eyes widened and she brought her hands up to her mouth in shock. Before her stood Sasuke but he was not dressed in his usual garb, instead he wore a silky midnight blue shirt and pants and falling from his shoulders was a black scarf- like cloth and she knew immediately what his garb portrayed.

`He is wearing a groom kimono…'

Looking back down at the clothing she wore her eyes drifted back to him and they widened a fraction more when his lips curved up in a soft smile that she had never seen on his face before. His eyes were not the usual blank dark eyes, instead they glowed with happiness and a sparkle was present in them.

“What are you doing here Sasuke? Why are we wearing this… stuff and where the hell are we?”

Sasuke's smile never wavered and he made his way to her. Once he was an arms length away he held out his hand and in the middle of his palm lay a small golden ring with an emerald. Sakura's eyes widened and she hesitantly reached out and took the ring from his hand. Turning it over in her fingers, she caught the small etching in the inside of the ring and she narrowed her eyes to read the writing.

`For my soul mate, Uchiha Sakura.'

Her shocked gaze flew to his and his smile widened, his pearly teeth glinting in the sunlight.

“I offer myself fully to you Sakura, you are my soul mate and you are the only one that can make the pain and sadness disappear,” Sasuke said in his deep timber voice.

He took her small hand between his and he brought it up to his soft lips. Pressing his lips to the pulsing vein in her wrist, his dark eyes met hers and she saw an emotion there that she never thought she would see in those eyes.

“Please accept me Sakura, you are my heart and if you throw our love away our souls will both shatter, forever to remain so.”

“But this is impossible; I can't be with you… I… a relationship between us is impossible and will never happen!” She finished closing her eyes tightly trying to wake herself up from this horrible dream.

She felt Sasuke's hand caress her cheek and then lift her face up slightly. She couldn't help but let a small sigh escape her lips when she felt his soft lips whisper over her own. She could feel her heart soar in her chest and she finally felt a certain happiness that she had not felt in a long time. She wanted to stay like this forever but to her disappointment Sasuke moved back after pressing a small chaste kiss to her forehead.

“Remember this dream Sakura, don't deny the impossible, embrace it and happiness will come to you,” He said and then slowly started to disappear before her eyes.

“Wait what do you mean Sasuke? Wait don't leave yet!” She exclaimed lifting her hand to reach for him but her fingers slipped right through his and she cried out in dismay. Bringing her fingers up to her lips she stared at the spot Sasuke had just disappeared from and she uncurled her hand and stared at the small ring that still lay in her palm.

Sakura's eyes slipped open to find herself lying in a hospital room, a window open to her right sending the white curtains fluttering. She sat up and looked down at her hands but she didn't find the ring she had been holding in her dreams. The dream had unnerved her a lot more then she wanted to admit and she remembered Sasuke's words.

“What did he mean about all of that?”

Looking up at the many flowers that sat by her bedside she saw a pair of pink roses and she picked up the vase smelling the sweet flowery smell. She had always loved the smell of flowers even thought she would never be caught admitting the fact. Putting the vase back, she slipped out of the bed and walked to the cabinet that held her clothes. Slipping her clothing on, she closed her eyes and looked inward to make sure she had fully recovered. Her chakra was fully restored and she had no injuries what so ever so she opened her eyes and made her way out of the room, heading to the front desk. When the nurse saw her walking to the desk she widened her eyes and hurried to her side.

“Sakura-san are you sure you're good enough to be walking around again?”

“Yea I'm fine don't worry. How long have I been sleeping?”

“You have been checked in for about three days.”

Sakura's eyes widened surprise that she had let so much time pass by. “Is there another man that was taken in about the same time as I was, he has dark hair…”

“The Uchiha? Yes he is still checked in, he has not awoken yet.”

“How do you know…”

“Don't worry the whole hospital knows, but we have been sworn to secrecy by the Hokage,” the nurse said reassuringly.

Letting out a deep breath she followed the nurse as she led her to Sasuke's room. She felt nervousness flutter in her stomach and she frowned not liking the odd feeling. She guessed it was the dream that was making her feel so weird. Pushing the nervousness aside she entered the room and found Sasuke lying still on the white hospital bed. His face was paler then usual and his black hair lay limp around him. She quickly made her way to him and pressed a finger to his neck. Feeling the small flutter of a heart beat she felt a pang of worry hit her in her stomach. Pressing her ear to his chest she heard the familiar muffled noises of his inner organs working but the fact that his heart beat was so faint really worried her. Closing her eyes she let her chakra flow into him and she followed her chakra into his body. Exploring his major organs and his heart. Not finding anything wrong she went back into her body and stood back from the bed. Her brows furrowed and she looked down at the prone form. He looked pale and was clammy to the touch. His heart beat was very weak and getting weaker by the minute and nothing was wrong with his organs or his chakra so why is he showing these signs of failing health. Clearly puzzled she turned back to the waiting nurse.

“How long has his condition been deteriorating?”

The nurse gave Sakura a clip board with Sasuke's stats. “He has just started today, he was actually conscious for a while yesterday but ever since this morning his heart beat has gotten slower and slower and he has become pale but we cannot find anything wrong with him.”

Sakura frowned and scanned the states. “Let's give him some antibiotics and put an IV in him we will see if that helps a little. I have to go check in with Naruto so just send for me if anything happens,” She said giving the clip board back.

Looking back at Sasuke one last time she left the room and headed towards the Hokage's office. She was glad that the hospital was less then a quarter mile from HQ because there was no way she could lug Sasuke around and she couldn't undo the binding until next week.

`His trial is next week… I wonder if he will be exiled or not.'

At the thought of Sasuke's absence she felt her chest tighten which totally annoyed her. Ever since the first night she had made a very big effort to keep her feelings under wraps and to keep her distance from the Uchiha. It still shocked her that he had kissed her and then shown her exactly what he held inside all the time. If she was less wise she would probably had fallen into his arms by now but she was determined not to fall for his tricks. She didn't need to end up back where she was eight years ago. When she finally reached Naruto's office she was surprised to find Naruto sleeping, his head resting on his arm. She smirked and walked around the desk to get a better look at his face. He looked so young when he was sleeping. All the lines of worry that have appeared over the last couple of years seem to have vanished and all that was left was a boyish innocence that seemed to never leave his face. Smiling warmly she reached out her hand and shook Naruto's shoulder gently. Waking up instantly Naruto groggily lifted his head and looked around, confused.

“It looks like someone is sleeping on the job,” Sakura said, a smirk planted on her lips.

Naruto's head whipped around and he surged to his feet and caught Sakura in a huge bear hug.

“I'm so glad you're awake! I've been worried about you ever since Sasuke woke up yesterday and you still slept. Are you okay? When did you get up?”

“Calm down Naruto I'm fine, I just woke up a little bit ago and yes I'm good enough to be up.”

Naruto grinned and let Sakura out of his embrace. “I'm glad your okay I was getting worried when you didn't wake up for two days.”

Sakura chuckled. “Don't worry I'm not dead yet. I guess I just went overboard with giving away my chakra like I did. But don't worry everything is fine… one thing is bugging me though, have you heard about Sasuke's condition lately?”

Naruto's eyebrows furrowed and his mouth set into a frown. “No why, is he okay? He was conscious yesterday.”

“Yea that is what the nurse told me too but it seems that today he has not woken up and his condition is deteriorating and no one seems to know why. I wanted to ask you if I could scan him to see if I can find anything wrong with him.”

Naruto shook his head, “No I don't think that would be a good idea, you just woke up from chakra depletion I don't want you going unconscious again because you depleted your chakra a second time. I'll have someone else do the scan; you just go home and rest a bit. I'll call you if anything comes up.”

Sakura frowned but didn't argue, she knew that it would be dangerous to do the scan herself and there were plenty of other good medic Nins that could do the scan on Sasuke. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed at the fact that she wouldn't get to work on Sasuke or for that matter be with Sasuke. Groaning inwardly she stood up from her chair.

“Okay Naruto just make sure to let me know any updates. I'm going to go home to rest if anything comes up I'll be there.”

“I will; bye Sakura-Chan… I'm glad your better.”

Sakura looked up into Naruto's worried eyes and smiled. “You shouldn't worry so much its not like I'm made out of glass you know. And remember who trained me, I promise I wont break,” she teased and then walked out of his office.

Once out of the tall red building she turned down a main street and made her way to her small apartment. Her mind raced, going through all she could remember of the extraction of Sasuke's curse seal. No matter how much she went through it she couldn't find anything that could tell her why he was not waking up again. The only thing that did seem strange to her was the almost life like quality that the curse seal had.

It was as if the thing was alive but she knew that was impossible it was just a curse that fed off the chakra of others. She shivered as cold fingers slivered down her spine. Just thinking about having to live with something like that in her body made her shudder. She remembered back when she had first met Sasuke in the cave, he had said that he regretted his mistake of joining Orochimaru. She had been surprised then to hear the once cold Uchiha admit any feelings to her, especially regret. Finally reaching her apartment she opened the door and stopped dead in her tracks, her eyes flying to the figure that lay in her couch.

Sasuke lay sleeping, a blanket covering half his torso, the rest bare to the world. His black hair lay disheveled on the pillow, some strands lying across his face, hiding one side of his face. She slowly closed the door and made her way to the couch. She didn't know how he had gotten here but she needed to get him back to the hospital, fast. She reached out her hand, which she noted shook slightly, and lay it on his warm shoulder. She couldn't help but notice that his warm skin felt like silk under her fingers but she shook her self and gently nudged him to see if he woke. His face scrunched up and then his eyes slowly slid open, baring his obsidian eyes to her view.

“Sasuke what are you doing here… you need to be in the hospital.”

“I'm fine, my body is healing itself and it will take a couple of days for my body to go back to normal. I don't feel like having people I don't know poking at me.”

Sakura's slender pink brow lifted in response to his last comment but she refrained from saying anything. Withdrawing her hand she started to make her way to the kitchen.

“Fine if that's what you want, just don't die on my couch, I don't feel like having to explain your death to Naruto,” She said nonchalantly and disappeared into the kitchen. When she came back out, she found Sasuke sitting down, his shirt back on and his hair neatly pulled away from his face once again. She had to marvel at how polished he looked even though he was clearly still sick. Looking closer she could see the unusual paleness in his skin and the moisture sticking to his skin like a second skin. She walked over and kneeled down next to the couch. Before Sasuke could say anything she took out a large syringe filled with liquid and stuck it into his arm. Sasuke hissed at the slight pain but said nothing else.

“I just gave you antibiotics to help fight your fever and it will put you to sleep in a couple of minutes,” Sakura said moving away.

Sasuke's hand shot out like an arrow and locked around her arm. Sakura looked down surprised at his speed, “What are you doing let go of me Sasuke.”

Sasuke did not release her instead he pulled her closer so that their lips were a hairsbreadth apart.

“Thank you Sakura for releasing me of this curse… forgive me but I just can't help myself…” He emitted a strangled groan and gently covered her lips with his own.

Her first thought was to push him away and hit him so hard he flew through her wall and to the street below but then the feel of his lips atop hers registered in her brain and she couldn't help but give into those demanding lips. She let out a small sigh and her body melted against his as if it had a will of its own. Her arms slid up and around his neck and she pressed closer to his heat. He slanted his lips across her and deepened the kiss plunging his wet tongue into her mouth, tasting her sweet nectar. She was drunk on his essence, she couldn't get enough of him; she wanted more.

She battled with his tongue for dominance and she slid one hand down and under his shirt, smoothing her hand over the warm skin of his stomach. She could feel the hidden strength under his skin and she smiled against his lips when she felt his muscles jump at her touch. She registered bells going off in the back of her mind but she didn't want to listen to the screaming of her consciousness, all she wanted to do was feel and be touched by his warm hands.

As if reading her mind his big hand slid under her simple white kimono and slid over the bare smooth skin of her back. The feel of his calloused hands sliding over her smooth skin was enough to lull her to sleep. She loved the feel of his hands on her body and she wanted him to feel more of her.

Just then a loud knock registered in her lust fogged mind and she jumped from Sasuke as if she was burned. Her lust filled eyes met his and she felt a small blush start to heat up her face. Moving back from the couch like prey escaping from the predator, she straightened her kimono and her hair and opened the door to find a medic Nin.

“Hello Miss Haruna I was sent here by the Hokage to check on Uchiha Sasuke,” The Nin said in a small voice her green eyes trying to look around Sakura curiously.

Moving to the side she motioned for the Nin to come in, furious that she was feeling a pang of jealousy.
“You can look at him all you want just close the door when you leave. Also I just gave him antibiotics so he should be going to sleep soon so I would hurry and do whatever you have to do,” She said her voice coming out colder then she had meant it to.

Glancing at Sasuke she was infuriated to find him smirking up at her and before she let herself hit him she spun on her heel and left the room, escaping to the refuge of her room.

Once inside she leaned against the closed door and hesitantly touched a finger to her still damp lips. She couldn't believe she had just kissed him again. All these days she had avoided him like the plague and now a week to the day from his trial she gave in and let him kiss her. If she didn't stop this soon she would just end up getting hurt in the end and that was the last thing she needed. She thought back to the feel of his rough hands on her body and she felt a drop of fire travel to the lower pits of her stomach. Cursing her bodies betrayal she made her way to the large window in her room and gazed out, looking at the many people down below going about their daily lives. She wished she could be one of them who did a routine and stuck to it, instead she had chosen the way of the shinobi and she had dedicated her life to chaos and uncertainty.

She vowed then that she would not give the last of her sanity to Sasuke, she didn't want to be hurt by him again and if she had her way she would never see him again after next week and she hoped to Kami that the village would decide to kick him out because if she had to see his face everyday for the rest of her life she would sooner leave herself then be forced to that life. Sighing she turned from the window and began to get ready to take a shower all the while her mind only thinking about the black eyed man that now sat in her living room.
