Well, I’m uploading a day later than I thought I would, at least it’s here(: FYI, This chapter introduces a new character. I own Hitomi & Michiko, everything else is what’s-his-face’s.

Love is a Weakness

Chapter Ten: Hitomi’s Savior

I soon stopped screaming as I realized it wasn’t that beast that took the form of Naruto. Not even remotely close.

The owner of those eyes belonged to a beautiful girl. She had long blue hair, and her red eyes didn’t hold the lust for blood. They held warmth, kindness, she looked as if she wanted to hug me. Her skin was flawless and beautifully tan. And she looked as if she were a head taller than me.

I quickly stood up and put distance between me and the strange girl. Had she been watching me sleep?

I studied her, and was shocked to see a Hidden Leaf headband in her hair. She’s a leaf shinobi?

“State your name, girl.” My voice was harsh, but that didn’t seem to faze her in the slightest. In fact, she smiled. How peculiar.

“Suzuki Michiko.” Her voice held generosity, as well as boldness. She put her hand out towards me. Did she expect me to shake her hand? As if. I snorted at her attempt of friendliness.

She sighed and put her hand down. “I swear Hitomi, you act just like Sasuke. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say y’all were related.” That hit a nerve, and my eye twitched. Much like Sakura’s does. Flames were in my eyes.

Did you just compare me to that teme? The Uchiha? I’m so going to--- wait. How do you know me?” Her once scared expression turned into a curious one. “I went to the academy with you. I’m on team 8[A/N sorry if that’s not right, I never paid attention to the other teams.] with Shino, Hinata, and Kiba.” She said. Her cheeks were a bright red. Why didn’t I know her? I’ve never even seen Michiko before.

“Well, that’s strange.” I muttered, mainly to my self. She’d gone to the academy? She was a genin?

She nodded and sighed. Did she get that a lot? I looked around the field and saw kunai. I looked at Michiko and noticed beads of sweat on her forehead. Had she been training, this late at night?

This girl just kept getting stranger and stranger. I decided to leave, still tired. “Hum, I’ll see you around.” I waved and headed off. Although my voice sounded promising, I prayed that I wouldn’t. She creeps me out.

_______________________________________________

Why was Konoha so creepy at night? Every sound almost made me jump out of my skin. I had almost died when I saw my shadow under a street light.

Was I always this paranoid? I felt a sense of déjà vu when I passed an old looking house. The house was white and it’s paint was peeling, there was a few broken windows. There wasn’t anything special about it, just that it was a bit run-down.

Where had I seen this house before? I racked my brain until my dream resurfaced. This is where the beast-like Naruto and Sasuke had been fighting.

I was no longer seeing my beloved Konoha, but the blood bath that had been held here. Once again, there were innocent people laying in there own blood. Michiko being one of them.

My heart hammered in my chest as I heard a ferocious snarl come from behind me. I turned, slowly , fearing my life. The beast stood there, in a predator-like stance. Its hands were bared like claws. This time I noticed blood around its mouth, and covering its hands.

I was suddenly brought back to reality. Tears were staining my face. What was that? Why did I keep picturing Naruto as such a horrid monster? And Sasuke….oh my God! Sasuke!

Without I moment’s hesitation, I took off. I ran as fast as I could. My body was moving on its own accord, but I didn’t care. I had to see, my eyes had to see. I had to be sure that Sasuke was okay.

___________________________________________

I finally made it to Sasuke’s house, minutes, if not seconds, later. My fist was banging against the wood of his door. I didn’t care if I awoke anyone, I had to see him.

It was this sudden urge I was getting. It felt almost as if my life depended on seeing Sasuke.

The door was yanked open, showing me a pissed off Sasuke. A pissed, but very much alive, Sasuke. Without even thinking, I flung myself at him.

My arms wrapped around his shoulders, as I buried my face in the crook of his neck. I didn’t care if he was my enemy, something in me changed after that dream, and I realized how desperately I needed him.

Naruto killing him, showed me that. I sobbed, harder than I ever had before. Sasuke was safe, in my arms.

His arms finally snaked around my waist and he pulled me close to him. I heard the door slam shut, with us inside. I hugged him tighter.

“Are you okay?” he asked in my ear. His voice sent chills down my spine. “Sasuke….d-don’t ev-ever l-leave m-me.” I gasped. It was hard trying to talk, while crying, and his smell intoxicating me. I didn’t want to ever let go, I wanted this moment to last forever.

Sasuke somehow managed to pull me closer to his body than I already was. His embrace was proactive, and tenderness. Not something you would expect from this Uchiha. It felt as if Sasuke was trying to protect me from the outside world.

We didn’t talk for what seemed like hours, just held on to each other. I had eventually stopped crying, but a lone tear would escape every now and again.

I had just noticed that Sasuke was only wearing boxers, but it didn’t bother me. If he would have even thought about touching me like this two days ago, I would have his head on a platter. But now, it felt as if he were meant for my arms. Like he was suppose to be here.

His hugs were different than Naruto’s. While Naruto’s were short and sweet, Sasuke’s held possession. Almost as if he owned me. They were protective, but held a certain passion.

Naruto was always warm, but Sasuke made me feel different warmth.

I reluctantly pulled out of his grasp. He held me tighter when I attempted to let go, but I somehow managed to escape. I still stood so our bodies were touching, though.

My eyes held his gaze, without speaking, my eyes told him how grateful I was. My hand stroke his cheek, and his eyes closed momentarily, as if he was savoring the moment. He put his hand over my own, and kept it on his cheek. He opened his eyes and I saw something peculiar there.

His eyes were sparkling. They were, for the first time, warm. This is something that has never even began to touch Sasuke’s eye. Now, that’s all that was there. I had lied earlier, Sasuke’s eyes were the only thing that could be compared to the night sky. They took my breath away, and kept me in a daze. Sasuke picked me up, bridal style.

“What are you---”

“Shhh. Be quiet for once, will you? I’m doing you a favor.” I rolled me eyes, but kept quiet.

My eyes stayed on his face, as I slowly drifted into a peaceful sleep. I slept well that night., Sasuke’s face with his beautiful onyx eyes filling my dreams.

Thoughts of earlier nightmares, forgotten. There was no room for anything else. Nothing but Uchiha Sasuke, the only survivor from his clan. In a form, my savior.

What’d you think? Sorry for the gaps in uploads, but seeing how it’s summer, I should be able to upload regularly now. Yay(: I’m excited, how about you?

So, I’m working on a picture for Hitomi, and I’m stuck in between two. >.< So frustrating. Grrrrrrrrrr. And it was so easy for me to find one of Michiko? What kind of world is this?! Can someone explain to me why the world has gone funny?

I don’t really like it>.< You know, I’m curious. Does my ramblings at the end bother you? Do you go “Ohmygod, does she seriously ever shut up? Instead of speaking to us, when she knows we arent ever going to reply, she could be working on the next chapter!” And then throw orangutans at people because you are frustrated OR are you interested and start square dancing when I ask you rhetorical questions?

Yeah, well. I hope you guys are doing lovely, I for one, am not. I miss my friends>.<
