Chapter 40

Sasuke was careful to catch her from falling, hurting herself. Wiping away the tears from the corner from her eyes.

For a strange reason Sasuke found her relationship status with him to be particularly high. Right now the number is at 67 points.

"Now that he's dead I have no reason to live anymore," she said to herself holding tight to the kunai in her hand.

She seems to puncture her heart with the kunai, luckily Sasuke was able to stop her from doing so. Flinging away the kunai from her handset prevent her from doing self-harm.

"Are you crazy!"

"I'm just a tool," she said with her eyes looking downwards, "now that my master is gone. I'm useless. I'm not needed anymore. So let me die!"

"You dummy!" Sasuke said to her grabbing hold of her hands. "Who are you to choose your own death!"

"What?"

"You're not useless! I need you," Sasuke said to her with a serious solemness in his voice, "do you think I will just let you die like that?"

Hearing his words which almost seemed like a confession Haku's cheeks turned really red. Feeling a strange tingly sensation from her chest.

His words were really warm. Touching the depth of her coldness. Blowing all the snow buried inside her heart's secret chamber away.

"You need me?" Haku's eyes looked with peculiarity at Sasuke. Her heart beating fast as a newfound warmth spread to all areas of her body.

Their faces were only separated by a short distance. She could see the deep focus as Sasuke looks with seriousness into her eyes.

[Lifetime Mission: Take care of Haku. Blessing her life with happiness. Reward: 10 Charm Points]

[Yes][No]

'I got a bad feeling about this,' Sasuke thought to himself. It seems like he becoming more like the perverts in the chat group.

But without hesitation he took the right path. He knows that this is the best choice, without regret at all in his heart.

With his eyes looking deeply into hers Sasuke told her in a deep voice, "Listen to me. From now on only I can decide your death. You're to be by my side from today onwards."

Her heart beats even faster as her body yearns to draw close to Sasuke. All this tingly overwhelming sensation mystifies her. But she finds herself drawn with desire to him like a moth to a burning flame.

'Her relationship status hit over 79 points,' Sasuke was amazed at the quick speed it raised. At this point this level is only reserved for girlfriends/best partners.

Without notice Haku finds her face inching closer to Sasuke's lips. Wanting to kiss them.

But the sound from her stomach suddenly interrupts the tense desirous moment. Gurgling in complaint.

"I'll go cook us something," Sasuke said with a smile while standing up immediately heading away.

Watching his secure back Haku puts her hands close to her chest. Feeling the rhythmic beating of her heart underneath.

'What has come over me?' Thought Sasuke as he cuts apart some ingredients with a knife. He really don't know how he's going to explain to Sakura if she finds out, which she eventually will.

'Guess I can only take this one step at a time,' Sasuke thought to himself. Hearing footsteps from behind him entering the kitchen.

"Haku?"

"I want to help you cook," she said with a kind smile. Taking a knife from the kitchen to chop some ingredients with Sasuke.

"Okay." The two start cutting the ingredients with Sasuke telling her about this village that she will be staying.

Finishing their dinner together Sasuke showed her a bedroom that his clone has already prepared for Haku beforehand.

"From now on this is your bedroom. And you're my family." With a hand holding onto hers, and another hugging her body close to his.

A teardrop slid down from the corner of her eye. From behind her frozen expression blossoms a warm smile filled with kindness.

"Thank you," such simple words. Though filled with meaning when expressed from her heart.

"Haku, from now on I will never let you suffer for anyone. Even me." Sasuke told her as they embrace each other in the room.

Releasing herself from the embrace Haku looked longingly into Sasuke's eyes. There was a long pause as they look into each other's eyes.

The room became filled with a certain weird tension. Haku suddenly draws her soft plush lips close to Sasuke's face.

Slowly she closes her eyes planting a kiss on his lips. With her hands wrapped around his shoulder.

With them exchanging a close kiss Sasuke was able to taste a subtle sweetness. As Haku wraps herself even tighter around Sasuke before they both fell on the bed with Haku on top.

"I'm sorry I can't control this tight feeling in my chest." She said touching Sasuke's cheeks. With her cheeks bright red and her breathing haggard.

Sliding her hands between her thighs, "there's a strange sensation down there that's really tingly."

Her body was really heated, her heart beating like she's in some sort of battle. She embraces Sasuke again wrapping herself tight. Kissing him again, wanting him totally.

Sasuke could feel the softness of her breasts pressed against his chest. With the last part of his will he was able to resist following his natural desires for her body.

"Haku!" Sasuke pushes her apart from the embrace. She looks down dazedly at Sasuke while breathing deeply into her abdomen. "We can't do it yet."

"Huh?" She didn't know what this feeling was. Then she felt herself sitting on his area which is building quite a tall tent. Her face immediately turned even more red realizing the embarrassment of what she's doing.

"I can't allow myself to be consumed by my desires." Sasuke stood up from the bed. "At least not until I feel we're both ready." Kissing her softly on the cheeks.

"Sasuke-kun!"

"Alright it's time for you to sleep now," he said to her while taking a step to the door.
