CHAPTER 3
It’s been five days since the mission started. After that day, Sakura secretly trained herself at night, by punching some trees into pulp. Sasuke is the only one who knew that. He always pretends he was sleeping, and then stealthily followed Sakura and watched her as she trained. Then, when she finally fell because of exhaustion, he was always the one who catches her, and brought her back to the camp. There was one night though...
“Hmm....Sasuke?” Sakura opened her eyes a little.
“S-Sakura? You’re...awake?” She could tell the Uchiha was surprised.
She slightly nodded her head. “Why are you here?”
“Watching you torture yourself,”
“I wasn’t torturing myself! I was training!”
“If you wanna call it that way...” then, silence came.
“Arigatou, Sasuke-kun, for catching me when I fell,”
“Hn,” was all he said, but his face was turning red, and so is Sakura’s.
“We better get back to camp, before the others woke up and found out we’re not our sleeping bags,” Sasuke said, realizing it was almost dawn.
“Yea...” she said as she tries to get up.
