Chapter Twenty-One: *Who Are You?*
Sakura's POV
I was in the dark.
Where am I? I thought as I scanned my surroundings. Nothing.
I am in a pool of darkness, surrounded by a blanket of endless thoughts that lingered my mind.
"Hello? Is anybody there?"
I called out. Hoping to hear a reply from any living life form in this deserted place. But none.
No one.
Suddenly, there was a figure emerging from the darkness.
It was glowing a bright shade of yellow as I ran towards it. But when I got near it, I rose an eyebrow as my instant reaction. Confusion, I bet was now visible on my face.
"Naruto?"
He smiled at me. His usual goofy grin. "Hello, Sakura-chan.." I stepped closer to him, but as I did, his face turned serious.
Is he bipolar?
"Naruto, wha--"
"You need to wake up." He said, cutting my question earlier. What on Earth is this man saying?
"So, this is all a dream?"
He nodded. I sighed. "So when I wake up, I'll have to face really, huh? Great advice, Naruto."
He frowned.
"You don't get it.. even if you wake up from this, you are still trapped in the world you are living in.."
Huh?
"I don't get it. Plus, you're creeping mr out."
"Sakura, you are living in a world of lies. Do not trust anyone but yourself.. they will manipulate you.. Mainly, he will."
He? A world of lies?
"Naruto, I--"
"You need to go. Goodbye, Sakura-chan."
"Sakura.."
I fluttered my eyes open when I heard a unfamiliar voice called my name. I adjusted my vision and sat up.
Only to meet a pair of coffee brown eyes. Gorgeous coffee brown eyes, at that.. I looked around. I was in a forest?
And based on my observation, it was night time. In addition, I was still in my wedding gown.
"Sakura."
I faced the man who sat beside me and glared at him. "Who are you?" I asked in attempt to gather information. "And where am I? Where is Sasuke?" The last thing I remembered, is that I was at the altar during my wedding with the raven. Then suddenly, a loud voice boomed throughout the room and screams were heard after. I tried to run away but I then lost consiousness and now here I am.
And this man. This red-headed man, was the reason for this all to happen.
He smirked, the moonlight giving him the aura of that of an angel's.
"Answer me!" I yelled, getting impatient with this bastard of a man.
He then leaned closer and cupped my face. Making my cheeks burn, unexpectedly. Why am I feeling this way?
He then inched closer and closer..
Why couldn't I move?
"Who are y--"
He kissed me.
Warm and moist lips gently placed on mine. It was like a drug.. but why, oh why can't I resist? Shouldn't I do something? Push him away or anything at all?
Better yet, why does this feel all so.. familiar to me? It feels like a nausea to me.
After a few seconds of kissing, he pulled away and stared at me with so much emotion hidden in those alluring eyes of his.
"I missed you.. Saku-chan."
