Chapter 6: Interaction
 
 
The sunlight shone brightly into the room, easily awaking anything it touched. Sakura groaned as she awoke. She did not remember coming home last night nor did she remember being placed in her soft, warm and comfortable bed. The last thing she remembered was seeing…red eyes. Bright red eyes with black swirls. The Sharigan. Her eyes widened as she remembered some of the events of last night. She was walking threw the forest when she was attacked by a…beast or something. She was falling and than she wasn't. The man she had met earlier that day had caught her. When she mentioned the Sharigan, his eyes had gone wide and than they went back to how they were when she first saw them. Than, she fainted.
 
 
How did she get home though? She quickly sat up. She regretted doing so soon after. Her shoulder and stomach sent pain signals threw out her tired body. She groaned in pain and laid back down on the bed, hoping the pain would subside. It did a minute later and for that she was thankful. She once again sat up but this time she did it slowly and carefully, avoiding her shoulder and stomach from moving the best she could. Didn't work too well thought. At lease her stomach didn't. After all in order to sit up her stomach had to be used. More pain shot threw her body, mostly from her stomach and all around it. Her shoulder showed no pain though. When the pain subsided once again she proceeded to sit up and lean on the headboard of her bed.
 
 
She looked around the room, looking for anything that would indicate someone else was here but found none. She sighed and leaned her head on the wall. She lifted her shirt up to see her wounded stomach, which was bandaged to her surprised. `Now that I look I wasn't in this shirt before I fainted, which means someone had to change me. So someone is here in the house, but where?' Sakura thought to herself as she put her shirt back down and swung her feet over the edge of the bed, so they were dangling. She placed one of her hands on the bed and the other on the nightstand next to her, pushing herself up, holding onto the nightstand for some support. She let go of it as soon as she thought she was able to stand on her own. She walked, slowly and carefully to the exit out of her room.
 
 
She was about to place her hand on the doorknob when she saw it twist and watched the door open, stopping no more than a millimeter from hitting her nose. She sighed in relief when it didn't and backed up, just incase the door moved forward again. She then looked at the person who stood in the doorway. The man from yesterday and last night was standing there, his eyes watching her with curiosity. “Err…Hi.” She greeted him. “You should be in bed.” He told her, with a small smirk on his face. “Who said?” “Me. Especially since your wounded.” Her savior told her and she rolled her eyes at him. “How did I get here? Or more importantly who changed my clothes?” Sakura asked him, and waited for an answer. He continued to smirk and although you really couldn't see it, a pink tint formed on both his cheeks. “Me.” “You?” “Yes me. I brought you here and I changed your shirt.” Sakura's eye twitched in response. “You changed my shirt?” She asked, anger clear in her eyes and voice. He gulped, but stood his ground.
 
 
“Yes. It was either that or your wounds were going to get infected.” He told her, hoping she'd accept the answer and drop the subject. She looked at him straight in the eyes, looking for anything that said he was lying but she found none. She sighed, nodding her head, accepting the answer he had given. “Ok, I believe you but I have another question for you. How did you know where I lived?” She asked him, her arms folded over her chest, as she leaned on one of her feet while tapping the other on the floor lightly. “Ummm….” He chuckled nervously, trying his best to think of an answer for that. He had no real answer for that. I mean of course he knew where she lived, how could she expect him not to?
 
 
Of course, he couldn't tell her that or else his secret was blown and his mission would be ruined. “Well?” Her foot tapping, increasing in speed as well as in strength and sound. “I-I…err….” He really had no idea what to tell her. I mean he could lie and say that he was one of her many fan boys so of course he knew where she lived but that would creep her out. Besides he wasn't one of her fan boys. The most reasonable answer was that he had seen her walk to her house many times before but it would look suspicious especially if he didn't live here and this was his first time coming in this village. “You don't have an answer do you?” She asked him, becoming annoyed. “No, I mean I do but I…err…well I-I…” “You what?” “I can't tell you.” He murmured to her, hoping she heard him for he had said it barley above a whisper.
 
 
She raised her eyebrow at his answer. “Your not a fan boy of mine, are you?” She asked, taking a few steps back just incase he was. “Fuck no. I would never be a fan boy of yours.” He replied, quickly not realizing what he had said until a moment later. He looked dreadfully at Sakura who was staring at him, but surprising to him she didn't look ready to cry instead she looked ready to kill him. `Of course you idiot, she doesn't know it's you.' A voice in the back of his head told him.
 
 
“Umm…I didn't mean it like that. I meant that I'm not a fan boy of any sort nor will I ever be one. I mean why do people chase other people like that? Just because their handsome or beautiful or have a lot of money. There's really no point in it. I mean I can clearly see why they'd chase after you. You're very, very beautiful, one of the most beautiful that I've ever seen. But they have no chance I'm sure.” The man told her and watched as her cheeks turned a bright red in response. He smirked once again, liking the reaction she got from her. She turned her face to the side so he couldn't see it anymore. He chuckled at the sight.
 
 
`Damn this guy. How did he get me to blush when I usually only blush if Sasuke says something?' Sakura asked herself. `Because he's just like Sasuke, except the fact that he's more open and seems interested in us.' Her inner self told her.`True but still, I only blushed when Sasuke said something like that to me. When anybody else said it I just thanked them in response, I never blushed like this. So why am I now?'`You like him, obviously.' `I do not. I only like…love Sasuke.'`Well you shouldn't love him anymore he's dead. Now maybe you and him could make a clan of your own.' Her inner self told her. Sakura blushed even more at the comment. `Shut up.' `Why? It's just a suggestion.' `Just shut up and leave me alone right now, ok?' `Whatever.' Her inner self said.
 
 
She was snapped back into reality when a hand was waved in the front of her eyes. “What?” She asked, looking at Sasuke who seemed to get in the front of her without her noticing. “Nothing, you were only spacing out for the past few minutes.” The man replied sarcastically. “Oh, sorry. I tend to do that sometimes.” She told him, rubbing the back of her head nervously. The blush had finally faded from her cheeks and for that she was grateful. “So I've noticed. So umm…what's your name?” He asked her, even though he already knew. I mean who didn't know the hottest kunoichi in this part of the world? She glared at him, anger in her eyes. This surprised him to no end. “What?” He asked her, now somewhat nervous.
 
 
“I'm not telling you, you damn jerk.” She told him and turned her back on him. His jaw dropped as he looked at her with confusion. “What did I do?” “You know what you did.” “No, I honestly don't.” He told her. “Remember yesterday, stupid?” She asked him and he thought back to yesterday when they met.
 
 
Flashback
 
 
“Who are you?” She asked him suddenly and he sweat dropped. “You ask me that now?” He asked her. “Ummm…well yeah.” “Better late than never, I suppose.” He mumbled to himself. “Well, are you going to tell me?” She asked him. “Why do you wish to know?” “Well I would kinda like to know who I have been talking to for the past…what…ten, twenty minutes?” Sakura told him, sarcasm in her voice. “What if I don't wish to tell you?” He asked her. She narrowed her eyes at him. “You better tell me. I'm not one to get angry.” Sakura told him, a bit of anger in her voice. He stood up all of a sudden and she soon followed.
 
 
 
“You don't know?” He asked her and she nodded in confusion. Why else would she be asking? “Good. It'll stay that way for a while. See you later.” He said before he disappeared in a puff of smoke.
 
 
Flashback Ended
 
 
“Oh, that, well I didn't want to tell you yet. Besides what does that have to do with you telling me your name?” He asked her, somewhat angry. `Someone's dense.' Inner Sakura said to her. “That has to do with everything. You don't tell me yours, I don't tell you mine.” Sakura snapped. “Damn, you so annoying.” He yelled at her. He immediately regretted in though, especially seeing the look on her face. Her eyes dulled and she became saddened. `Your so annoying.' It ringed in her head, becoming lower and lower in volume. That's what he usually said to her. How it brought back painful and sad memories. Her vision started to blur, as tears welled up in her jade eyes.
 
 
`Damn this all to hell. I always make her cry. Every fucking day. And I don't even mean it half the fucking time.' He thought, angry with himself for always making her cry, no matter how much he tries not to. `What the hell should I do?' he asked himself, watching her cry silently. `Comfort her, asshole.' `Who are you calling asshole, jackass?' `You, idiot. Now shut up and comfort the poor girl. Jeez.' `But if I do my cover might be blown and…' `What's more important Sakura or the fucking mission?' `I don't know.' `Just comfort the damn woman.' His inner self told him. `Alright.' He said to himself.
 
 
He walked towards Sakura, stopping in front of her. She looked up at him with curiosity. He sighed and hesitantly wrapped both arms around her petite waist, drawing her closer to him. She was surprised by this action but in a way she felt comfortable and relaxed in his embrace. She forgot about all her surroundings and any bad memories running threw her head and buried her head into his chest. He smiled at her, although she could not see and rested his chin on her head. This is the scene her friends came upon a moment later.
 
 
 
(A/N: HAHAHAHAHA. I'm so evil. Another cliffhanger. What will happen? How will her friends react? Who the hell is this guy? How does he know Sakura? What's going to happen next? All these answer will be answered in the next chapter, which mean yes the man will be revealed in the next chapter. So hurry, the more you review, the fast the update. Thank you for all who already reviewed, please keep it up. Thank you once again. Oh and by the way the story has about two chapters left. Until next time.)
 
Preview of next chapter:
 
He disliked anyone but him being with Sakura, after all she was his. He would not let another man touch her or hurt her in anyway. Only he was allowed to touch her, only he was allowed to hurt in anyway. Not that he liked it or anything. It was his privilege and his alone. He would let no one take it from him. He would not be with anybody but her and he knew she would only be with him. They were made for each other. One dark, one light, one evil, one good, one tainted, one pure. They were complete opposites but that's what made them perfect for each other. They covered each other weaknesses and exploited and enhanced each other strengths. When they were together nobody could stop them and nobody would try.
