Trapped

Chapter 4

My eyes slowly started to open as I reached for Madara but he had already left.. Did last night really happen? Would it change anything between us? .. Did it mean anything to him? Well I would find out soon enough I guess.. I slid out of the bed and into the bathroom. I strolled through the hallway and heard Madara's voice coming from inside his office. As I was about to turn the doorhandle I heared a familiar voice "My daughter it is so good to see you again" I hugged my father back awkwardly.. I still had not forgiven him for this whole ordeal. "How did you get here?" He looked to the ground before ushering me away from the office and into the lounge. "I'm afraid that our clan is about to go to war.. the marriage must be moved forward if we are to survive" I nodded, knowing my duty .. but how soon would it be? As if answering my question a maid walked in with a flowing white and pink kimono lined with cherry blossom flowers (see picture) I froze.. I knew our wedding was getting closer but today?! It was all so sudden.. I wasn't sure if I could handle it. Father noticed and tried to calm me down before leaving me to get ready. I gazed at my reflection, the dress was beautiful and complemented my long, black hair. "It's time" I looked at the maid before breathing in deeply and nodded. She led me to the back garden where my father was awaiting my arrival. He looped his arm with mine and we walked down the aisle together. The aisle itself was just a long carpet rolled over top of the grass and a wooden patio covered with blooming flowers sheltered us from the sun (Think twilight wedding) I could barely breathe.. the crowd was enormous with the elders, my clan, the Uchiha clan and important shinobi of the leaf. I felt sick.. that was until I locked eyes with him. His usual emotionless stare was replaced with one of awe and .. love? A corner of his lip turned up in a half smile as I slowly made my way towards him. My father gave my hand to Madara and we were united as one. He kissed me just as tenderly and passionatly as he had done  the night before. The crowd errupted into cheers as we made our way inside. We were unable to go on a honeymoon as Madara had buisness to attend to but he had promised once it was sorted he would leave Izuna in charge for awhile and we would go. 

Months passed and life was better. Our relationship had blossomed and everything was as it should be.. except for the fact I was becoming unwell. Madara demanded I be attended to by a medical ninja but I refused saying that it was only a bug but he remained stern and an appointment was made for today. I wiped my mouth and flushed the toilet.. maybe he was right. I rinsed my mouth out and set off down the hallway. I heard Madara's voice coming from within the office and as I was about to open the door I heard the Uchiha elder's voice and listened intently.
