A cold wind chilled her face as she ran through the dark forest with only one goal in mind. His chakra was getting closer, Sakura could feel it. Sasuke's presence was everywhere.

She bounced off the branch, accelerating. She couldn't afford to lose him, not this time. Sakura had spent two years preparing for this meeting. Two years and three months, learning of the terrible wrongs done by the village she'd been able to give her life for not so long ago.

A raven flew over her head. She jumped down, landing gently on the grass. Sasuke stood still, breathing steadily. She knew he was aware of who she was. She purposely did not hide her chakra.

"What are you doing here, Sakura? Won't Naruto and Kakashi be looking for you?"

"I came alone." She took a step forward; Sasuke still didn't turn around "I left Konoha."

At these words he looked at her. Red eyes shone in the darkness, sending shivers through her body.

"You left Konoha?" he laughed mockingly "Don't lie to me, Sakura. You love this shitty village too much."

Gritting teeth, she gripped the kunai tighter as her former friend began to move towards her with a hostile expression. The clenching and loosening of his hand indicated his annoyance at the situation.

"I'm not lying, Sasuke." she didn't add the ending to his name, showing the seriousness of the moment.

He leaned over her, smearing his breath over her cheek.

"How am I supposed to believe you? Why were you looking specifically for me?"

"I know what they did to your family and more. I also know that you joined the Akatsuki and that you could so easily introduce me to them. We are fighting on the same side from now on." she explained.

Sasuke's lips twisted into a smirk.

"So you'd betray Konoha for me?"

"I'm not doing it for you."

Silence.

True? Not true?

They measured each other with eyes, the atmosphere thickened. They both tried to steady their breathing, without success. Invisible sparks were forming between their bodies.

"One suspicious behavior and I’ll kill you." he threatened.

Sakura pressed the sharp tip of the kunai to Sasuke's chest, pushing him away.

"You try that, and I won't stop myself from killing you either. I'm not the same girl you left on the bench back then. One try and you'll be dead before you know it."

Sasuke stepped back, running his tongue over his lips. His expression changed; he became more pleased.

"And that's the attitude I like."

A pleasant summer evening breeze was brushing Sasuke's face. The young boy strolled through the streets of Konoha with his hands in pockets and two rolls of sealed weapons.

He was just returning from a quick training session. The late hour was most suitable for it - Sasuke didn't have to worry about other people. He had the peace and quiet then; only him and his goal.

With his thoughts far away, contemplating life and absorbing the moonlight with his face, he almost bumped into someone as he turned into a side street. His eyes would have barely noticed the person's face if not for the bright pink hair he could see from a kilometer away. Sakura massaged her nose, directing a hostile stare at him, but when she saw who was standing in front of her, her cheeks darkened and her posture shrank.

They exchanged glances, and a moment of understanding hung in the air. Sasuke pulled one hand out of his pocket, turning and heading back to the main street of the village. Lanterns illuminated them here.

"What are you doing at this hour?" he asked, feeling Sakura's presence right next to him.

"I went for a walk, Sasuke-kun." her voice trailed off at his name.

He didn't believe her, so he turned to look into her eyes, but then he saw the bruises on her knees and the scratches on her hands, which were still bleeding. The sight of her stirred something in him.

"Who did this to you?" he grabbed her arm, still noticing the bruises under her eyes.

Sakura scowled, lowering her head ashamedly. Sasuke urged her on, raising his voice at the next question - "Who?" - unable to stand still any longer. He didn't know what was happening to him, but the urge to hurt the person who had hurt her was growing.

Who dared to touch her at all? To cause harm?

"Sakura, tell me finally—"

"I've been training. No one did anything to me." she said quietly.

What was so embarrassing about that? Sasuke resumed walking, knowing she would follow him.

"You couldn't have said that in the beginning?"

"... I don't know."

This was already too much. He couldn't understand why she sounded so sad, what had happened and why she was flustered. He didn't like her like that. Sasuke preferred to see a smiling and happy version of her. She was the one who kept him hoping that life could still be good.

He slowed his step, leveling it with Sakura's step “Are your parents home?” She shook her head negatively “I can come and treat your wounds.”

He wasn't sure why he'd said it, but when he saw the sparkle in his friend's eyes and the blossoming smile on her now beaming face, he found he regretted nothing.

"Okay!"

She grabbed him under the arm, regaining her old vigor.

Sasuke stared at the camera, then at Sakura and Sarada, and so on and so forth.

They were lying down, sleeping after a long walk, and Sasuke, not wanting to waste a minute, sat on the bed right next to them and looked at them, trying to keep this view in his mind.

These two girls were so important to him that he couldn't take his eyes off them, fearing that if he did, their faces would soon fade from his memory. Even more so now that he was going to be leaving them in a fortnight' time for no one knows how long.

Sasuke did not think about it any longer. He finally picked up the camera to take a picture of Sarada in his mother's arms.

This is the only way he will be able to have them with him at all times, no matter how far away from home he may be.

A quiet sob reached his ears.

A melody of pain came from behind him.

Clenching his eyelids, he counted to ten. He waited, listening to see if she was still crying. He didn't feel like talking in the middle of the night; he didn't want confessions or words of comfort. But Sakura didn't stop.

Taking a deep breath, he turned on his other side in the sleeping bag. Her long hair covered most of her face, but Sasuke could perfectly see the tears flying onto the already soaked fabric.

Extending his hand, he automatically exposed her other eye. Sakura only now realized that he was looking at her. With her eyes wide open, she looked into his deep black.

They didn't need any words.

Sasuke stared at her red skin, while Sakura tried to get rid of the last wet marks on her cheeks.

Unable to look at her like this any longer, he reached into his bag, pulling out one of three handkerchiefs his mother had made herself when he was still a child. Handing it to Sakura, he watched with what gratitude she received the small gesture.

Sasuke gave her a piece of the past; a thing that no one but him could have; without hesitation.

Wiping her nose, she handed him a handkerchief, but he stopped her with a movement of his head, conveying with a glance that she should leave it to herself. Instead, he gently touched her shoulder and pointed to the sky.

The stars were his anchor. He loved looking at them, turning off intrusive thoughts.

Sakura followed suit and after a while her eyelids began to close.

Sasuke fell asleep as his mirror, in which the stars are reflected, closed.

Shirts were sticking to the back and feet were burning in shoes. The middle of June took everyone by surprise. It had not been so hot for a long time.

Sakura sighed in exhaustion, leaning her palm against the tree trunk, "How much longer, Sasuke-kun?"

Her traveling companion rubbed his sweaty forehead, looking at the surroundings from under squinted eyes.

"Five minutes and we'll reach the next village."

"Oh god. I've had enough." She unbuttoned the top of her blouse, showing more neckline than usual. Sasuke's gaze wandered there, for a moment, because he quickly grunted, handing Sakura a bottle of water "Thanks."

Taking the bottle from Sasuke, their fingers rubbed against each other, causing invisible sparks. Sakura abruptly pushed her hand away, biting her cheeks on the inside. She hoped he hadn't noticed her overly red cheeks, even for this weather. The relationship between them was still... undefined.

Disregarding the feelings and tension floating in the air, she began to drink the cold drink greedily. The thirst was quenched.

"The less stops we make, the faster we'll get to a place with air conditioning." Sasuke whined, moving away.

Sakura ran up to him in three strides, tucking her drink into a backpack and crossing her arms behind her back. The free hand of a friend? A lover? Or perhaps a mere companion - tempted her. All she had to do was straighten her elbow and she could grasp his fingers between hers. But Sakura restrained herself.

They reached the hillside, carefully descending and passing through the village gates. The small town was somewhere on the border of the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers.

"Welcome." The dignified woman leaned over, greeting Sakura with a smile, but when her gaze fell on Sasuke, she turned away, avoiding eye contact.

The Uchiha was still unwelcome in some places.

Looking back at Sasuke, Sakura noticed that he had lowered his head slightly, hiding his violet eye behind a curtain of hair.

"Sasuke-kun." She caught his sleeve, stopping him in mid-step.

"Nothing happened." he wanted to move on, leaving the subject behind.

"Sasuke-kun..." Sakura's pleading tone did not allow him to go further, however. He stopped and she brushed his fringe away, running her thumb gently over his eyelid (she had no idea how that worked on him) "Your past doesn't define what kind of person you are now."

"But it continues to be a part of my life." he closed his eyes.

Sakura tilted her head, smiling softly "These people don't know you like I do. And to me, you are..." she held her breath, looking into his black irises, now open wider than usual, "a wonderful man. Remember that. You have done and will do more for this world than everyone here." she took a step back, looking at the sincere gratitude painted in his eyes "Come on," she relaxed the atmosphere a little, "let's find that inn already. I'm falling from exhaustion and hunger."

They moved on without even noticing (or wanting to spoil the moment) their joined hands. Two months of travel had brought them inextricably close, but not enough to confess anything more to each other.

Every house they passed was decorated with lots of flowers all around, a stone path leading to the door and small trees on each side. People were eager to get outside, taking advantage of the nice weather - children swimming in pools, adults tending gardens or sunbathing. Only Sakura and Sasuke were unhappy with today's temperature.

"There," he snapped her out of her reverie, leading her to the door, which was wide open.

Stepping inside, the first thing that caught her attention was the beautiful woman sitting behind the counter. Her long brown hair fell in puffs and her long dress framed her shapely body. As soon as she noticed their arrival and her gaze fell on Sasuke she straightened up, tossing a strand behind her ear. The large eyes became even larger; on purpose.

Sakura knew perfectly well what this woman was doing. And she didn't like it. Although, did she have the right to? Theoretically, she and Sasuke weren't together.

"One room."

He placed the pouch on the table, with the same expression on his face as usual. The woman placed the book in front of him along with a pen.

"Please sign here."

Sasuke made a quick signature, and the receptionist's gaze never left his face for a moment. Sakura bit her cheeks, fighting the feeling, which was incorrect at the moment. She moved closer to her companion, practically touching her shoulder to his. She and Sasuke had always kept a safe distance; an invisible line kept them from taking even a step further, though they both strongly desired it.

Handing her the pen, Sakura intentionally rubbed his thumb with her index finger, smiling sweetly at him. She hoped the woman noticed.

The receptionist took the book, sending them both a polite glance, "Enjoy your stay, Sasuke," his name pronounced with a gentleness that a normal person would not show to a regular guest, "Sakura."

The keys landed on the tabletop, and Sasuke took them and nodded, moving away with his friend. Trying not to react too strongly, Sakura intertwined her hands in front of her, just coming close (too close) to him.

They stepped inside - a plain, rather intimate room with two futons on either side.

"What do you want to eat?” He asked, putting his bag aside.

"I'll get some sleep first, Sasuke-kun." She pulled out her clothes to change, "Otherwise I'd fall asleep while eating." She laughed weakly, yawning "And what are you going to do?"

"I have a lot of letters from Kakashi to check."

Sasuke spread out on the floor, placing the scrolls on the table. From the corner of his eye, he watched Sakura disappear into the bathroom and breathed a sigh of relief. Her close presence made him thirsty. Emotions were boiling inside, very extreme and some tactless (because it wasn't right to think that way, even if the woman was stimulating various parts of his body, right?) that he had to keep to himself. Sasuke waited for Sakura to define what they were.

In his mind, he tried to read the words written by his former sensei, but the green eyes, rosy cheeks and pink hair etched into his memory kept him guessing.

Sasuke was sinking.

—

Sakura woke up after two hours. The sun had already hidden behind the horizon, the stars had come to greet the people. Light from torches streamed in through the parted curtains. She opened her eyes, turning to the other side. Her gaze fell on Sasuke sitting and looking out the window.

She yawned louder than she intended, catching the man's attention. He smiled softly.

"I ordered us food. Your favorite."

"Thank you." She slid out of the futon.

"Did you sleep well?"

Sasuke rose as well, taking a small pillow and placing it next to the table. Sakura knelt down on it.

"Yes." he joined her, sitting down practically next to her "Kakashi wrote something important?"

"No. The same as usual. He asked how we were doing."

"And what did you write back to him?"

"All good."

"Just that?" Sakura looked at him brokenly; Sasuke confirmed "Next time, leave the letter writing to me." She nudged him lightly with her elbow, smiling broadly.

Sakura's laughter triggered an immediate reaction in him. His hand hovered in the air, almost touching her forehead, but then the same woman from the front desk entered the room, carrying a tray of food.

"I hope I didn't disturb anything." She blinked her eyes slowly "I brought your order." She turned to Sasuke, ignoring Sakura's wry gaze.

The woman set the plates on the table, sneaking glances at Uchiha. Once again, a feeling of jealousy lingered in her stomach. Sakura bit her lip in anger - just who was she angry at? Herself or the woman? The receptionist, after all, did not know who they were to each other. Sakura's signals might have been too weak. And even though, again, she knew she shouldn't, because Sasuke was still a free person (perhaps), she moved closer to him, placing her hand on his knee.

Her touch sent shivers throughout his body. His heart was beating wildly, but he didn't drop his facade.

"Will there be anything else?"

"That's enough." Sakura said before Sasuke could speak.

The woman now turned attention to her, nodding politely and leaving.

"Something wrong?" he asked, sensing the tension in the air.

Taking the sake, she poured herself a glass and drank immediately, only able to answer him afterwards, "I feel great."

They got down to eating. It was Sakura, as usual, who talked a lot more, causing the heat to escape from the food, becoming cold. They were having a nice time, and the woman fled from her mind as soon as Sasuke located his eyes on her face. He stared at her so hard that she was beginning to think she might have something on her face.

And in fact, she had.

Raising his hand, Sasuke took a piece of rice off the corner of her mouth, her cheeks flamed. She didn't know if she should say something or not.

"I haven't seen any towels other than the ones in the bathroom." he began, unconcerned with the earlier situation "I'll go get two, then we can use the onsen."

"Together?" she asked dumbly.

"A... do you want separately?"

"No." She lowered her gaze downwards, saying quietly "Together will be fine."

Sasuke left, walking to the reception desk, and Sakura piled the dishes, trying to sort out her thoughts. Thousands of different emotions were coursing through her body.

Taking a deep breath she left the room, silently following Sasuke's steps. A quiet conversation reached her ears. Sakura looked out from behind the wall, taking a single step, then stood as if transfixed hearing the last words.

"... on a date?"

This was already too much. No one was going to hit on her man.

Her. Man.

What was going on with her?

"I've already—" before Sasuke had time to finish his sentence Sakura stood beside him, grabbing his arm.

His muscles tensed momentarily, his gaze fixed only on her eyes.

"Any problem with the towels?" she asked in an overly pleasant voice.

"No, I'll get them right away."

"Ah, that's fine. Sorry for the problems, we're just frustrated. Our honeymoon is delayed." she explained, lying all too well.

The woman quieted down momentarily, walking away and returning with towels, wishing them a good night. Sakura felt ashamed. She hadn't done this before, and she shouldn't do it now. Sasuke had a choice, she didn't have to be one.

As quickly as she could she walked back into the room, hiding her face in her hands when Sasuke was right behind her.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't—'"

"I don't have anything for you. I didn't know."

Sakura parted her lips, not understanding anything now.

"What?"

"Sasuke-kun, I lied to her..."

"Ah." He nodded, putting his hand in a pocket.

"You thought..." she squinted her eyes, smiling teasingly.

"I wasn't thinking of anything."

"And I think—"

"Were you jealous?" he changed the subject, scaring Sakura.

"...No." she stammered

"You sure? Look at me, Sakura."

She lifted her head, unable to take her eyes off him. Something had changed in him "What if I was?" she asked uncertainly, looking at his lips for too long.

Sasuke ran his tongue over his teeth.

"I liked it."

"You like me?"

He leaned in, his breath brushing her lips "Are you just finding out?"

All three came for ramen, but Naruto felt like a third wheel. Sakura and Sasuke were in a world of their own that they wouldn't let him into.

It was always like this.

There were either three of them or only two. His friends communicated with each other without words, making it impossible for him to understand what they were conversing about.

Sipping the warm broth, he watched suspiciously as Sakura put an egg into Sasuke's plate that she didn't like but took, just so she could share with the black-eyed boy.

Why not share with him? After all, she knew very well that he loved eggs too!

Naruto grimaced, popping the noodles into his mouth. He chewed slowly, squinting eyes at every little gesture Sakura made towards Sasuke - a gentle nudge at his elbow, whispered words in his ear, covering her face with hair.

This was too much. Did they even remember that he was here too?

With a bang, he placed his hand on the table.

"Are you finally going to tell me?"

They momentarily jumped away from each other; Sakura with a burning face, and Sasuke with red ear tips. He probably thought Naruto wouldn't notice, but he'd had his eye on him for a while now.

"We have no idea what you mean."

"You don't?!" he pointed his chopsticks accusingly at the two of them, "You guys have been acting all lovey dovey since you came here!"

"What—"

Sakura parted her lips, her short hair falling over her eyes.

"It's just your imagination." grunted Sasuke, getting down to eating.

However, Naruto wasn't about to give up.

"You two are together." it wasn't even a question.

A temporary silence fell. Only the buzzing of crickets pierced through the thicket. Everyone held their breath until suddenly Sakura and Sasuke shouted.

"No!"

"I think otherwise."

"Dobe, I swear I'm about to do something to you—"

"You didn't deny—"

"Stop it!" Sakura slammed her open palm on the tabletop "We came to eat in peace. Can you leave this conversation, Naruto?"

She knew he wouldn't refuse her, so she smiled. Naruto whispered under his breath, deciding not to end this topic. He had time, someday he would find out what was going on between his two friends.

"...Fine."

They began to enjoy their meal again. And Naruto still felt like he was in their way.
