Disclaimer: I don’t own Naruto, if I did you probably would never had heard of it because I would be to lazy to get it published.
Also I havn’t read this far in the manga and the darn U.S. of A hasn’t even gotten up to where Saskue leaves in the anime so excuse me if anything is wrong.

Title; All that they promised…
* ******************************************************* *






Sakura laid back down on a bench, no the bench. The bench where she slept after Sasuke left that long time ago. The spot were they started their journey. The spot where it ended as well. But his return has brought back old flames but also new anger. Anger for him turning his back on the village. Anger for trying to hurt her. Anger for making her feel this way again and making her love him again. No not again, because even if she never tells anyone, she always had have and will love him…

With a great sigh she sat up and noticed night had already fallen and each and every little star was out, shining with all their might. She took such a passion for the stars then she did not even realize that her lover was staring at her from afar or at least until he steped on a branch which made her turn her head immediately, grab her kunin (is that how you spell it) and stood up as fast as Naruto running to an All You Can Eat rammon bar.

He realized she saw him. “Show yourself,” she yelled waiting in the still darkness for someone to make an attack or jutsu or anything. As she told him, he showed himself. No weapons. No Sharigan. Nothing except the clothing on his back (sorry sasuke fans) and the words out of his mouth showing themselves in the dim light of the night sky.

“It’s me.”

The cherry blosom beauty dropped her weapon at the sound of his voice and the sight of his face.

“Sasuke, w w what are you doing here.” She manged to get out. After seeing the one she has dreamed of, been protected from, but … never loved from no matter how much she did him.
“I came out for a stroll and noticed you here. You look like you have something on your mind,” the raven-haired beauty said in a tone of voice that was not cruel or viel neither was it exactily comforting , just his normal tone of voice he has always spoken with that always made her want to listen. “Well…”

She managed to wake up from the spell his voice had and always had put on her. The one where she would daydream of the life they would have together, but obviously her dreams were not relality and spoke up. “I don’t know what your’e talking about.” She picked up her kunin and put it in it’s poket. Her head was already planing to start walking away from him, but her feet just wouldn’t let her. Tears started to slip down from the emeralded eyed beauty and said in the smallest whisper she had ever spoken with, for she was afraid of his awnser…

“…why… Why did you have to leave!?” She started to break down. Sakura never wanted him to see her like this. But there she was. In all her wreched pain and suffering He didn’t want to see her be in as much anguish and agony as she was either.But there she was.

She took a few steps closer to him where their faces were only a foot away and cried out to him again so loudly “WHY!?”

He spoke.

“I had to get stonger, stonger than my so-called brother and I knew if I trained with Orochimaru-”

“I’m not talking about that…,” the girl wept with only the waxing cresent moon and the stars providing any luminance for the two to to see the other,

“I need to know why you left me.”

Suddenly Sasuke grabbed Sakura in a hug with his right arm on her upper back and his left in the middle. Sakura just stood,shocked that he did something like this to her. She eventually managed to place her warm hands on his cool body. In that moment nothing else mattered. Time stood still for the two of them as he leaned over to her left ear and said eight simple words that meant more than anything to her then…

“…beacause I didn’t want you to get hurt.”

She turned her head up at him and looked at him. She wanted to say so much to him right then and there but all she could get out of her lips was, “Sasuke-Kun.”

“Remember when I left and you said revenge would make no one happy”

She wanted to say yes but all her body allowed her to do was simply shake her head up and down.




“I thought if I could get strong enough I would be able to kill my brother and let go of my past.---Including you. What I didn’t realize is that it was to hard to let go of the memories I have from here. Then I thought if I --- if I was able to kill Naruto and you, I’d know that I’d be able to kill him.” She started to cry even more with her eyes shut so close the tears barely squeezed through after hearing this, but what she didn’t relize is that he wasn’t finished.

“Though what I didn’t realize is that it’s hard to let go of the ones you love. Saskura-san.”

She awoke at hearing this she stared strait in his onyx eyes and him her emerald as he said the words she had longed for so long it seemed as though he would never but he would.

“I love you.”

Sakura cried again but she wasn’t sad. She was happy. So happy.

“I love you too Sasuke.”

“That’s why…” The Uchiha started to leave from the warmth of her body and step back into the darkness of the night.

“I have to leave.”

“What? WHY!?” Was all the girl could say as she saw the love of her life was about to leave from her life.

“Because I don’t want you to get hurt,” he finally was able to say after a long pause with his back starting to turn the other way.

“Then promise-” Sakura brought all her courage to grab his left hand with her right .

“Then promise you’ll come back. Promise you’ll never forget about me.”

He turned around and brought both of his hands together with hers and said, “ I promise--

---- but you have to promise me you’ll wait for me to come back,.” he placed his cool hand against her warm cheekbone, “Promise me you’ll still love me when I return to see you.”

“I promise.”

Right then and there, where it all began and started, the Uchiha and the Haruno kissed. They pressed their lips against each other in a way that can’t quite be described with words. The love between them spead all around their bodies. He licked her lips as though wanting to tuch hers. She opened her mouth and let him. Their heads turned and moved to the passion that no one could stop.

Though neither one wanted it to stop, Sakura pulled backed to regain her breath. When Sasuke started to breath at a normal pace, for he to had lost his breath in their first kiss together, he started to speak.

“I love you so much Sakura-san. I just pray that you won’t get hurt being with me.”

“ I’d rather get hurt for you than hide and be safe and know that your’e out there fighting alone. I could never just leave you to by yourself. I love you.”

“Thank you.”

“No. Thank you.”

“Me.”

“Yes you. You finally---” the girl started to laugh a little with a few stray tears flowing down the rosy cheeks of her face, “ ---I finally know you love me.”

“Sakur-”

She put her hand on his lips and said “ You don’t have to say anything. Youv’e told me enough.” She then placed a light peck on the Uchiha boy which in return he gave her another and another till they were tounging each other so thrustfully.

They broke apart together. As if each other knew the other was tired and needed a quick breath. Already barely in a relationship with one another and they can already tell how the other is feeling.

They stood there. Gazing into each others eyes. As if looking into each others souls by the simple complexity of one anothers eyes. One onyx as dark and deep as the dark night sky. And the other a deep green as beautiful and yet simple as the grassy green meadow. But there was something important that the onyx-eyed boy needed to tell the green-eyed girl.

“Sakura.”

“Yes Sasuke-kun.”

“ I didn’t just come for a stoll… I came to leave the village for a bit to learn the whereabouts of Itachi. I didn’t even expect to see you here…nor the less… have what happened. I feel like a fool.”

Confused and a tad bafled she took a quick breath in then out and said,“ So you didn’t want this to happen then.---Did you?”

“No,no of couse I wanted this to happen,” he said trying to prove to her with a bit of a blush.“I just didn’t want it to be right when I have to leave you,” he said as he started to look at the ground.

“Look at me Sasuke.”

He obyed like a little puppy to his owner and let her hand bring his face right to hers, his eyes riht to hers and their foreheads, which Sakura was always made fun of, were leaning right agains each other.

“I will never leave you and you will never leave me. We’ll always be in each others hearts. Right? She spoke so confidently with a little smile at the end, already knowing his answer.

“Right.”

They looked at each other for so long neither of them could tell how much time had pasted. They just wanted this moment, this moment together, to last forever.

Unfortunatly the two soul-mates had to depart once again. Just as they did those two and a half years earlier, but this time they knew they would meet up again and in good terms.

“ I have to go now Sakura- kun.”

“I wish you didn’t,” she said grasping on his arms not wanting to let go.

“I have to though…” the raven- haired boy, no man, said not wanting to leave but knowing he had to.

“Just keep your promise.”

“I swear. And you?” the cherry-blossem girl, no woman started to cry with a smile, once again knowing his awnser.

“I promise.”

The kissed passionly for one last time. With his arms around hers and hers around him. With nerviousness, sadness, and happiness all running though their bodies at the same time. The two knew they were going to leave from one another… but not in their hearts.
“Good bye.”

“No, not good bye…’’ she protested

“See you later…”

“Yeah,” he agreed “ See you later.”

They gave a lite peck and he started to turn his back and walk aay as he said,“ I love you and I swear to keep my promise to you.” Then he speed so quickly he became a blur in the wind and disapeared in it. After hearing this, she ran in the direction and stopped as she gave all her power to shout out,“ I love you Sasuke and I will keep my promise!”

The sun started to rise. As if nature saying itself that there was something new between the two soul-mates that would last as long as the sun and moon themselves.Sakura then laid down on the bench about to fall asleep with only two words escaping her lips before she fell into a deep dream… “ I promise…” Sasuke took one look back. Back at the one he loved and said “I promise.” He knew he would return to her, with love, right then as he left the village.

The promise the made would be one they would keep. Their lives were not over after this, instead a new chapter began. One that would lead to many things. Wonderful things. That was all because of the promise they made with their love…
