Sasuke felt his heart racing with each passing second as he neared the room that Orochimaru had told him to come to. He was in the middle of training when he was called. And on top of that, it was his room. He couldn't help but pray that he hadn't snooped around and read through anything private like his mother used to do to Itachi.His eyes furrowed as he could feel a very familiar chakra. He hoped he was just hallucinating from how tired he was from the intense training he had been enduring to take down itachi and avenge his clan.he placed his hand on the doorknob shakily. He had an extremely bad feeling about what he was about to see.He opened the door and his eyes widened as he saw the very same person he had sensed the chakra of a few minutes ago. There she lay, her pale skin decorated with blood and bruises, her chest rising with each pained breath she took in. Her long, luscious locks splayed on his pillow, drenched in blood on the tips. Last time he had seen her, she had short hair. How could it have grown so quickly?And her neck…There was a curse mark. But it was different. Instead of the three black comas like his one, it had three white petals. And it had something in the centre of it. Once looked carefully, one could see that it was the Uchiha symbol with an ‘S’ on it."What did you do to her?!” Sasuke demanded, glaring at the snake sannin with rage and fury in his eyes. Orochimaru clicked his tongue and spoke, "I gave her a curse mark. But.”“But what dammit?! And why the hell would you give her a curse mark?!” Sasuke shouted, his mind not thinking straight.
Orochimaru nudged Kabuto, whispering to him, “Kabuto, write down his reactions. It could help us figure out how long it will take for them to get in a relationship and then become grandparents.”
“Lord Orochimaru, do you mean parents?” “Nah, they’ll achieve that in a few months, knowing that I’ve heard Sasuke jerking off while whimpering Sakura’s name. Don’t tell him I heard it tho.”
Kabuto sighed and nodded, writing everything down.
"Answer me!” Sasuke shouted, his voice laced with venom.
Orochimaru turned back to Sasuke and started explaining, “You see, this curse mark is different.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“You know how your one turns you into a demonic looking creature? Her one would turn her into an angelic looking creature.”
“What…?”
“She’s the first one I’ve tried it on…so she might turn into a failed experiment.” He stated with an evil smirk.
Sasuke felt his heart stop for a few seconds.
Of course, Orochimaru was lying. He had tried it on others until it was perfect. He may be cruel but he’s not that cruel to kill his little students crush.
"If you don’t want her to die, you have to help her through it." He said as he stood up and walked with Kabuto to the door, leaving Sasuke standing there. He paused and spoke again.
”if you suddenly feel pain, it’s probably Sakura letting you feel it so you can find her when she’s in trouble. You could also speak to each other through a mind connection. If one of you dies, the other one will follow. Oh and also, she may act differently than what you were used to since well, you’ve been gone for three years, and the curse makes effect and blah blah blah and blah blah blah.”And with that, him and Kabuto left. Sasuke stared at Sakura, raising a shaky hand to brush away the hair strands on her face carefully. He stared at her wounds. If it wasn’t cleaned soon, it would be infected.He went and brought some lukewarm water and a bit of cotton along with the antiseptic. First he cleaned off all the dry blood carefully, pausing whenever he heard a noise of pain from Sakura before continuing.Next he applied the antiseptic carefully, repeating the process until she was treated as well as he could do. An area of her leg caught her attention but before he could check it, Sakura stirred.”Oro…chi…ma…ru…give…Sa…su…ke…back…” she murmured as her eyes moved frantically under her eyelids.Sasuke’s eyes widened at hearing that and without thinking he immediately sat on the bed next to her, caressing her head and hair and mumbling, “I’m here, and I’m not leaving you Sakura.”Sakura’s eyes flew open as she tried to move but only grunted in pain, trying to reach for the same spot on her leg that had caught the attention of Sasuke moments before.”easy now, let me see if it’s been poisoned.” He had to hold back a smile at how quick a simple blush turned into a complete red face.he narrowed his eyes at the spot on her leg before putting his mouth on it and sucking out the blood.”W-What?! S-Sasuke-kun! What if you get poisoned?!” Sakura stuttered, her hands covering her face.”I’m immune to poison.” He said as he spat out the blood into a bin that was coincidentally within his spitting reach.He carried on sucking the poison out and then spitting it out of his mouth.By the time he was done, Sakura’s face could challenge a tomato on who looks redder.Sakura shifted a bit and patted the spot next to her. Sasuke sighed softly and sat next to her, glancing at her curse mark.she tilted her head to the side to show her neck. “Gimme a mirror….I need to see if your telling the truth or Orochimaru just wants us to be his little baby making factory. Cuz I don’t know about your dick but my vagina won’t be able to handle 20 children.”Sasuke’s cheeks were tinted a shade of pink as he found a hand mirror and gave it to Sakura.she checked it and stared at it for a while that Sasuke became worried and was about to shake her when she said, “Well at least it’s pretty”Sasuke stared at her, dumbfounded. Anyone else in her shoes would’ve started screaming and yelling and crying and going through the five stages of grief but no, Sakura was judging whose curse mark looked prettier.”I- whatever.” Sasuke mumbled as he sat back down on the bed next to her. Sakura sighed and laid her head on Sasuke’s lap.”We were trying to bring you back but hey, no need for me to try anymore since I’m stuck with oreopedo.” Sakura huffed out.”Don’t call him that, you don’t want him to hear you.” Sasuke muttered.”What’s he gonna do? I’ll scream it…OREOP- MFPH!” “I told you not too, now if you want me to take my hand off of your mouth, promise that you won’t shout that.”instead, Sakura turned her head to the side in defiance and Sasuke just sighed.”You’ve made your decision then.” He said and kept his hand on her mouth.But that won’t last long.Sakura eventually got tired of waiting for him to remove his hand so she did the smartest thing anyone would do.She licked Sasuke’s hand making him immediately take it away and exclaim, “What the hell Sakura?!””should’ve taken your hand away from my mouth.”Months went past and with the time spent together, Sasuke and Sakura’s relationship grew closer, and eventually led to Sasuke asking her out while Orochimaru watched through the keyhole.
