SasukexSakura ~Yasa~
Sorry for the long wait!!This is dedicated to Nojiko!Hope you like it^-^Doujinshi: YasaArtist: MitonaSong: Sorry by Chris DaughtryHere is the summary I found for this doujinshi:This is Oushou Chikubai's first copy-bon, with a story taking place between Kakashi's talk with Sasuke and his encounter with the Sound Four, telling of how Sasuke came to his decision of leaving Konoha for Sound. (If you pay closer attention, you'll notice that Kakashi gave Sasuke the talk in the afternoon and the Sound Four did not attack until later that night. So this story takes place during that blank afternoon.)"Sasuke, you should stop seeking revenge. You and I have both found those important to us, no?" These were the words floating in Sasuke's mind as he wanders aimlessly around Konoha after Kakashi's talk with him. And before he knows it, he finds himself squatting on Sakura's bedroom window ledge, watching over her, who had cried herself to sleep after witnessing the incident of him and Naruto trying to kill each other on the hospital top floor earlier that afternoon. When he comes back to his senses and realizes where he is, he turns to leave, only to be stopped by Sakura calling out for him. Cursing himself for his bad luck, he turns around to dismiss Sakura, and notices his teammate was actually calling out to him in a nightmare. Unable to see the torn look on her face, Sasuke tries to comfort Sakura by stroking her hair. But as his hand is nearing her face, she unconsciously reaches out and grabs something, which, of course, turns out to be his hand. And he ends up having no choice but to stay there by her side because he doesn't want to wake her up. As Sasuke watches Sakura struggle in her sleep, he realizes she is dreaming of the many encounters he had with her over the past few months: her trying to stop his cursed seal in the Forest of Death, her worrying about him and trying to stop him from continuing in the preliminary rounds, her attempting to stop Naruto and him from killing each other.While Sasuke is touched by Sakura's concern for him, he also realizes the hatred born from Itachi's betrayal is something he cannot let go of, no matter how much Sakura wishes for it to be gone. As an avenger, he lives to hunt down that one man, even if it'll cost him his life. And this is why he must stay away from Sakura at all cost, for she has the ability to heal the wound his hatred had inflicted deep inside his heart. Upon coming to such a realization, he leaves (but not before giving Sakura a light kiss on her cheek XD). Shortly after his departure, Sakura wakes up. She senses the remainder of Sasuke's presence in her room, but quickly dismisses it as a dream. Back to Sasuke, soon after leaving Sakura's room, he encounters the Sound Four. And here, we get an amazing scene that jumps between Sasuke's battle and Sakura slowly coming to a realization what Sasuke would eventually do (leave Konoha for Sound). At this very moment, she knows she must tell Sasuke of her true feelings, even if he sees her feelings as only a hindrance. But her feelings are genuine and are not fake. So even if she knows she may sound silly and stupid to Sasuke, she insists of letting him know the truth, leading us to the starting scene in chapter 181, where Sakura stands by the bench and waits for Sasuke to show up.
