                                            You Belong With Me

Sakura Haruno walked the streets of her neighborhood on a cold Tuesday night. She was utterly confused at her friend’s decision. Her best friend she had known since she was a toddler was now going out with someone she despised. She could tell he wasn’t happy with his pick, but his new girlfriend wouldn’t let him go. She has had a crush on him since middle school, and he knew that. Why, Sasuke, she thought, coming up to his house. Why did you break my heart like that?

Sakura saw that his bedroom light was on, and he was on the phone. He looked frustrated at the person he was talking to, and she knew it was Karin, his girlfriend. At school she was known as the biggest slut, and everyone was appalled at Sasuke for dating her. They all knew that Sakura and Sasuke would have made the Couple of the Year, but they couldn’t understand why he chose Karin instead. Sakura leaned against the tree in his front yard, and brushed her pink hair out of her face. I just can’t understand why, Sasuke. What does she have that I don’t? Then, she started forming words in her head, that turned into a song. She couldn’t bottle up her feelings anymore, so, she let it out in song.


“Karin, it was a JOKE. I didn’t mean it!” Sasuke Uchiha exclaimed to his girlfriend.

“That was a horrible joke then. I have the right mind to break up with you, but that would ruin my reputation. Going out with the star Quarter Back did raise it quite a bit,” Karin said over the line.

“Isn’t being the Cheerleading Captain already give you an advantage?” he asked, mad and annoyed. He doesn’t even know why he asked her out in the first place. Wait, no, it was HER that asked HIM out. He had hoped that he could ask out his long time best friend, Sakura Haruno. He knew she’s had a huge crush on him since middle school, and he liked her too. He’s just never had the courage to tell her. Sure he was the star Quarter Back for the high school they attended, but she was popular herself. She was the captain of the softball team and had so many friends. But, when she had heard he was going out with Karin, he could tell he had broken her heart. They haven’t spoken since.

“Sasuke-kun, are you even listening to me?!”

That whiny voice came back, and he spoke into the phone. “Yes, Karin. I’m still here and listening to you.”

“Good. Now, I was hoping we could go out on Saturday. . . .” She droned on and on, and finally, he said,

“Karin, I have to go. I’ll see you at school tomorrow.”

“Alright! Love you!” Then, she hung up. God, he thought, relieved. She finally shut up. He glanced out his window, and saw a flash of pink.

“Sakura?” he said, and suddenly, he heard the most beautiful singing. He looked down, and saw Sakura singing.

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, She's upset
She's going off about something that you said
She doesn’t get your humor like I do

It’s true. Whenever he would make a crude joke like he had done to Karin, Sakura would laugh instead of yell at him. He smiled and ran down the stairs.

“Honey, where are you going?” his mom called as he pulled a coat on.

“Out for a bit!”

“Alright, but be back by curfew!”

“Yes ma’am!”

Sasuke ran outside, but he didn’t see Sakura. Suddenly, the singing started again, and he ran down the street. Sakura didn’t know she was being followed, and continued singing.

I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn’t like
And she'll never know your story like I do

But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're lookin’ for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
You belong with me

Sakura passed by a bench the two of them had often sat on as kids, and she remembered what they used to do. They pulled pranks, ate ice cream, and even played on this bench. This is pretty easy to think about when you’re alone, she thought, and continued singing, bringing the ideas from her mind and into the song.

Walkin’ the streets with you in your worn out jeans
I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinkin’ to myself
Hey isn’t this easy?

And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven’t seen it in awhile, since she brought you down
You say your fine I know you better than that
Hey, Whatcha doing with a girl like that?

She loved his smile when he was happy. Suddenly, one day, his smile disappeared when he started dating Karin. Why is he with someone that does that to him?

She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me

Standin’ by, waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know, baby?
You belong with me
You belong with me

Whenever he was sad or got hurt when they were kids, and even now, she knew exactly how to make him feel better. She missed those days as kids and when they started high school. It seemed like he was the one to cheer her up in high school, as if he was making up all the times she had cheered him up. She missed him, the real Sasuke, so much. She knew that he belonged with her, and not Karin.

Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're about to cry
I know your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams
I think I know where you belong. I think I know it's with me.

Sasuke ran down the street looking for Sakura. I could have sworn I saw her go down this way, he thought, stopping at a fork in the street. He walked down the right side, knowing where he was going. This was the way to that bench they had stayed around as kids, the one where they had all their adventures and hang outs alone. Together. And something hit him. He knew he belonged with her, and not Karin, and he was going to make it up to her. Tonight. Finally, he saw her sitting on that bench, and before he called out to her, she started singing again.

Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me

He started walking towards her, and she was totally oblivious to him. He loved her, plain and simple. He loved Sakura Haruno.

Standing by or waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know, baby?
You belong with me
You belong with me

Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me

Sakura saw someone’s shadow next to her, and she looked up. Her eyes met a pair of dark ones, and she knew it was Sasuke. She stood up and backed away. Did he hear her song? Sasuke smiled at her, that same smile he used to give her all the time. She blushed, and stepped towards him.

“S-Sasuke? W-What are you doing--”

“Sakura. I need to tell you something. It’s important,” he said, sitting on the bench. Sakura sat next to him, and stared at him. There was a long silence, and Sakura was beginning to think it was stupid to listen to him.

“Sasuke, if you’re not going to say anything, then I’m just going to go ho--”

“Wait!” he exclaimed, grabbing her wrist. Sakura stared down at him, shocked. She sat back down, and he held onto her hand.

“Sakura, I’ve known you since I was a little. We met on this bench, played on this bench, and hung out at this bench. For years, I have known that you have had a crush on me since middle school, and I want to make it up to you. I have broken your heart, and I want to be the one to stitch it back together.”

Sakura gaped at him, and a blush made its way across her face. Tears of joy pooled in her eyes, and she grabbed his hand. Then, a thought crossed her mind, and she took her hand away.

“What about Karin?”

“Sakura, I don’t even like her. She forced me to date her because she knew you like me. She wanted to kill you emotionally by dating me. I found out the day we started dating, but I didn’t do anything about it. I’m sorry.” He looked away, and proceeded to get up. Suddenly, Sakura grabbed his hand, and this time, he was shocked.

“Sasuke, I would like to make one more memory on this bench. You don’t have to do it, but I do,” Sakura said, her face shaded by her hair. Sasuke turned back around, and sat on the bench. He knew what she was talking about, and obliged. She picked her head up, and smiled at him. He blushed, and leaned in to her. She closed her eyes, and leaned forward to him. If they kissed, this would be their first kiss together. The moment was ruined when Sasuke’s cell phone rang, and their eyes snapped open. Sakura sighed as Sasuke took his phone out. He checked caller ID, and saw that it was Karin. He flipped the phone open angrily.

“What?” he growled.

“I just wanted to tell you that I loved you again. Come over to my place in a few. I know it’s almost curfew, but--”

“Karin, I want to break it off with you,” Sasuke said sharply. Sakura lifted her head, and watched as her crush broke up with his girl friend. Sasuke held the phone away from his ear as Karin yelled at him through the phone. She couldn’t hear what she was saying, and she didn’t want to. Sasuke said a quick goodbye and snapped his phone shut. The yelling was immediately cut off, and Sasuke turned back to Sakura.

“S-Sasuke, why did you--”

“Sakura, I love you. I don’t know what I do without you if you weren’t by my side every day. I’ve loved you since we were kids. I was too stupid to admit it, and I regret it deeply.” Sakura blinked a couple times at his sudden outburst. Then, tears sprang to her eyes, and she launched herself at Sasuke. He stumbled back and fell on the bench. She hugged him awkwardly, and leaned back to face him. He stared at her, then smiled that smile she loved on him and only him. Sasuke brought his hand to the back of her head, and pulled it towards him. Her eyes widened as their lips met softly. Their bodies molded together, and her eyes finally drifted close. Thoughts were running through their heads unchecked, but they couldn’t care less.

After a few moments, they parted, and Sakura smiled. Sasuke smiled back, and she climbed off his lap. Sitting next to him, she put her head on his shoulder.

“Sasuke?” Sasuke grunted that he was listening. She smiled again. She nuzzled her nose in his neck, and said, “I love you, and you will always belong with me.” Sasuke smiled down at his new girlfriend.

“Always and forever.”

Sakura smiled softly at the familiar words they had used as kids.

“Yeah, always and forever.
