"You look like as if it was your first kiss." Sasuke smirked over my flamed cheeks and pinched one.
"D-don't get so full of yourself." I dared nervously. "Especially now that your feet hurts badly."

"What are you gonna do then? Take advantage of me?" Sasuke had a playful look on his face that I almost wanted to smack.
"No, it means I might torture you here and you can't even chase me." I giggled with the thought.

"So," I started, I was still curious of what had happened though they considered this as an accident. "How - how did this happen to you?"

"I'd say it was rather planned. Seeing the truck driver covered his face with a cloth and wore a cap, I don't think he really didn't want to be seen." Sasuke said monotonously as if it was just normal, while I, on the other hand, had my heart almost bursting out of my chest. Sasuke stared at me for a moment and grinned, "Just kidding. It was an accident."

"That's not a good joke." I pouted and slapped his arm followed with an audible "ow" from him.

But something wasn't right.

It was as if he was telling the truth.

"You're doing it again." He said, cutting off my distant thoughts.
"Doing what?" I shrugged,
"Overthinking. It's not a good habit." Sasuke stared at me for a minute or two, which had me looking away and blushing crimson red.

"What I told you is a joke. Don't go overboard." He warned, as if he was back to cold and heartless man like he used to be.

But.

The difference now,

Is that he is mine, and I am his.

"I do believe it's my responsibility to worry about you. After all, you're mine." I said confidently which made him smirk and had me pulled over his hospital bed, on top of his warm chest.

I still can't believe it though. That, Sasuke, my most hated, egoistic, arrogant, bastard, evil and more, had made me fallen head over heels for him.

Is he the same for me?

"Whoa, no fucking at the hospital bed, please, calm your inner beasts." Hozuki said suddenly as he opened the door which made me jump over and push Sasuke off.

"You'll be the first guy I'll kick after my leg heals." Sasuke threatened, which Hozuki, I believe, is already used to it.

"Your mother and father is here to see you."

"What an odd suprise." Sasuke said, taking the slight high tone of his voice as his father when through the entrance.

"Oh, my son," Mrs. Uchiha sobbed as she ran over Sasuke, giving him a quick tight hug.
"I'm fine, mom. You're over reacting." He said irritably.
"Over reacting? I did not carry you for 9 months and raised you for more than 20 years only to have you ran over by a truck, young man!"

I could almost see Sasuke mentally face palming himself which made me giggle a bit.

"Sakura," Mrs. Uchiha suddenly said, which made me nervous in case her statement wasn't supposed to be funny at all. "We meet again," She smiled softly.

"It is my pleasure meeting you again Mrs. Mikoto, I - I'm very sorry I wasn't with Sasuke at the time being, considering it was for a business trip. I could've prevented-"
"Shush dear, it's not your fault. I barely believe he called you to accompany him." She smiled softly as she patted my shoulder to reassure me.

"Come, let's go outside, his father needs to talk to him. I hope you don't mind."
"Oh no, I have no right." I blushed suddenly and paced outside, thinking as if Mrs. Mikoto was asking for permission for Sasuke that meant he was under my possession.

"You know," Mrs. Mikoto suddenly said at the moment while we walked through the hallway outside the hospital room, "You reminded me of someone. The daughter of my friend back then. She was beautiful like you, and she was Sasuke's childhood friend. Although, I really didn't remember her name, old age probably haha."

Sasuke's childhood friend?

I didn't want to think much about it, but I do remember having a childhood friend too, before Sai. I was young back then, I had little memories and only glimpses of it. Even mom found a picture of us when we were unpacking with the new house.

Could it possibly be me and Sasuke?

"I know it may be sad, because I received news back then as well that her daughter and husband died a few years later, and she was nowhere to be found."

Died? My heart beated fast as the word swarmed over my mind. It was true that dad died yet I was still alive, so it couldn't possibly be me.

"How did they die?" I asked curiously.
"I was told that they were killed and that the police were investigating."
"I don't understand, why would they kill them?"

"I don't know, it remains a mystery. But there was a rumor about his husband being an inheritor of one of the biggest and most influential companies worldwide and he simply refused while some fought for it. Well, you know how some people do things for the sake of money and power."

"T-that's sad.." I remain mentally speechless. I hate to assume it was the situation for dad, and it's impossible. Dad couldn't possible be a powerful man.

Sasuke was right, overthinking is a bad habit.

"Well, as for me, I am glad and happy enough to see my sons and my husband working in this company, at least somehow we're together. Family is everything." Mrs. Mikoto smiled happily.

"I do agree,"
"And hopefully soon, another member of the family will be added."
"Another son?"
"Silly, I'm too old." She giggled and wrapped her arms around mine as we walk.

"A grandchild maybe." Mrs. Mikoto said playfully.
