This is obviously a special chapter of my SasoSaku story,  Make A Wish.  Thank you so much for the support :)

P. S.  This one-shot took place after the whole book. Don't be confused, this is just an extension.

Dedicated to @ SakuraHaruno256! Thanks for the request!

Never Make A Wish

"I love you, Sakura-chan.."

"I love you more, Sasori-kun.."

I smiled sweetly at my redheaded husband and leaned closer to give him a passionate kiss. How I love this man beside me. I don't know what to do without him. I closed my eyes and wished this moment would never end...

...

..

"SAKURA HARUNO,  WAKE UP! "

I groaned and hesitantly opened my eyes to find I was kissing my pillow.  Ugh.  I sat up on bed and scratched my head,  remembering the dream I had last night. Kami,  it felt so real!  Was that even possible? 

"I'm awake, mom!"

I shouted and slumped back on my bed.  I stared at the ceiling,  my thoughts  reeling back to how that handsome man swept me off my feet even if he wasn't real. Seriously,  Sakura..  You should quit reading those crappy fantasy romance novels on Wattpad!  I mean,  a rich billionaire? Making a broken hearted girl's wish come true by deceiving  her?  Then what? They had a happily ever after together?

Get real,  girl!

I sighed, silently hoping it all happened in real life even if I know it's impossible. First, Kiba-kun is still my boyfriend.  Second,  my parents are alive. Third, I don't drink nor believe in wishing upon a star.

And lastly, I'm just an ordinary girl...but dreaming a whole love story in one night is waaaay too bizzare, even for me.

With an exasperated  breath,  I got out of bed and prepared for school.  Graduation is still a couple of weeks ahead and my life couldn't be more boring.

---

The moment I reached school,  I saw Kiba sitting on a bench near the main building.  I smiled and waved at him but he seems to be bothered. I wonder why?

When he saw me, he sadly got up and pulled me in for a hug. I furrowed my eyebrows at his actions. "Um.. Kiba-kun, what's wrong?"

We were already face to face. His breathing was shallow. I can literally feel the nervous waves he emitted and in one point, it made me terrified of the unknown.

Then, he said it..

"I'm breaking up with you, Saku-chan.. Sorry."

I felt my world crumble down at his words. Just then, I forgot how to breathe, letting those poisonous facts invade my mind. Kiba is breaking up with me? A part of me wants to cry, yet another part wanted to laugh.

I chose the later one.

"Hahahaha! K-Kiba-kun! Seriously? Hahaha..  Okay, stop kidding around now, will you? We need to attend first perio----"

"Sakura, I'm serious about this. Stop being pathetic."

I shivered at the sound of his voice.

And that day marked a point of history in my life. The day Kiba Inuzuka, my boyfriend for years, let me go. When I asked his reasons, he just said something about 'going to a far away land', making it sound like a small case. But in the end, we both know it's not that easy. Especially for me.. Now, I wish the redhaired guy in my dream is real. Maybe if he was, I wouldn't be balling my eyes out so much..

"I-Ino! What am I going to do?"

A week passed.

My Facebook status already updated.

And here I am with my blonde bestfriend, eating a tub of chocolate ice cream inside my bedroom. Ino looked at me with those bored eyes and said, "Move on. As simple as that." Then she gazed back at the magazine she'd been reading.

I sniffed, knowing I look like a complete disaster with the puffy red eyes and all.

"Shouldn't you be comforting me, telling me everything's gonna be alright?"

Ino sighed, placed the magazine down and replied,

"I'm you're bestfriend, Sakura. What good would it be if my job was to make you believe everything's gonna be okay when the fact is, it certainly isn't? And it's not going to be, unless you start moving on."

I nodded my head, knowing she had a point..

Maybe I do need to move on.

The next day in school, I felt like a walking dead. My mind refused to take in all the crappy lessons and activities we did. Naruto and the others were already worried about me, which didn't help at all. Kiba and I had the same circle of friends and that's making everything worse!

Lunch break.

I went out the main building to have some fresh air. Honestly, I didn't feel like eating. I lost my appetite and now I just want to crawl up into a ball and cry my heart out especially now that I've learned Kiba already left the country yesterday.

So imagine the pain I felt when I saw that same damn bench where he broke up with me.

"Dammit Sakura.. Stop crying.."

I muttered to myself once I felt the tears well up my eyes. I was about to fetch out a handkerchief when I remembered I used them all up last night.

I groaned, completely frustrated with my life.

And then someone reached one out for me.

I instantly gazed at the person and my eyes widened in surprise. This cannot be real!

"A pretty girl like you shouldn't be crying over a bench."

He smiled sincerely and still held out the piece of cloth. Reluctantly, I took it and muttered a 'thanks' even if my mind failed to function what---or who-- I am currently gawking at.

Red hair.

Hazel brown eyes.

That face.

That posture.

..that smile.

"Staring is rude, y'know."

I mentally slapped myself and quickly wiped away my tears before shyly adding, "..I'll just wash this and---" but before I could finish my statement, the redhead chuckled and cut me off,

"Keep it, dollface. I don't want to see you crying ever again, okay?"

I nodded, and then he started walking away. I gathered all my courage and call out to him,

"Hey, mister! Who are you?"

He turned his head to the side and gave me a glance. That handsome and sexy look reflected the same one he had in my dream.

"Sasori Akasuna.. Foreign exchange student from France. I gotta go now.. See you tomorrow, Sakura-chan."

I stood there, dumbfounded. My heart raced with mixed up emotions.. Sadness, confusion, hope...excitement. And somehow, watching him walk away with his hands in his pockets made me smile.

"Ah, so you've met the guy who switched places with Inuzuka?"

I didn't need to turn around to recognize the man behind me. My eyes were glued at Sasori's vanishing figure, my hands still clutched his handkerchief.

"Sasuke, tell me.. Is it possible that wishes come true?"

It took a moment for him to reply,

"Frankly, no. Why are you asking?"

I smiled wider, while shaking my head in amusement. I have a feeling something great is going to happen, mixing my hopes to reality.

Sasori Akasuna, now I wish this wasn't a dream.
