Lovely Guy
(Chapter 001)
Sasuke pinched the bridge of his nose in hope that he could lessen the pain that his head had started to produce. He grabbed the phone upside the table and dialed number two, waiting for the other line to pick it up which was not so long.
"Yes sir?"
"Sakura, send me some aspirin and a glass of water immediately."
"Give me a minute or two, sir."
Sasuke hung the phone without even reply. He eyed the time on the clock which was hanging on the wall across where he sat which was shown seven thirty pm, a half hour to go before the late meeting. He was sure his head could explode anytime soon. He needed a break even just for a week.
He stood up and made his way toward the couch. His office was spacious which could fit his desk, one couch, two single couches, and a coffee table. He wished his secretary would take her time so he could rest a bit. He sat down on the bigger couch and leaned on it, rested the back of his neck on it so he was staring at the ceiling except his eyes were now closed. He loosened his tie a bit in hoped that he could get some air because the life he was currently living right now was suffocating him.
He smirked a little from the position he was now supporting because he felt much better. The office was so quiet he could hear the clock ticking. He was becoming impatience. How he wished the time could go faster and so he could get over the meeting and going home to take some good rest.
Sasuke startled when there were knocks.
"Come in." Sasuke said without even moving from his position to the intruder.
The door cracked open and closed. "Sir, here's your aspirin and glass of water."
It was his secretary. Without even moving, he nodded. "Put it on the table and you can leave now."
Sakura put the tray there and bowed before she left which she was aware that her boss couldn't see her.
When he heard his door clicked shut, Sasuke sighed and waited for another minute before he sat upright. He eyed the tray of two pills of aspirin and a glass of water on the table. He took the pills and downed them with the water. Now from the moving his eyes blurred. He leaned slowly on the couch, took his cell phone, and dialed speed dial number two. He waited for three beeps before the other line picked up.
"Yes Sasuke."
Toward hearing Itachi's calmed voice, Sasuke sighed. "I think I couldn't make it till the next half an hour."
"Why?"
"Another move I'm going to black out."
Sasuke could hear Itachi sighed. "I have warned you before, haven't I?"
"Save it." Sasuke hissed.
"You want me to drive you home?"
"No, it's okay. I've got this."
"…but Sasuke, you-"
"No, Itachi. You have to run the meeting. Kiba and Sakura will be absent too as well as me."
"…alright then… if you insisted… I will send you the result of the meeting via e-mail. Take care."
"Thanks, Itachi."
"Hn." was the typical answer Sasuke heard before he hung up and dial another number and held the device on his ear.
"Kiba, you are still in the building or not?"
"…boss?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes hearing Kiba's sleepy voice. Sasuke could guess that that kid was home asleep or he was still at the building, sleeping. They were high school mates after all, included his secretary, Sakura. "Answer my question."
"Alright, geez…" there was a yawn. "I'm still inside the building. In case you forget, I just want to inform you again that there is still a meeting left that's why I am still here."
Sasuke ignored Kiba's smartass comment. "Let's go home. You drive me and you can return my car first thing in the morning."
"What?"
"You hear me."
"…but, what about the meeting?"
"I will haunt you down if I died from a car crash."
"What?"
Sasuke took a deep breath and massage his temple. "Kiba." Sasuke said dangerously.
Sasuke could hear the other man was gulping.
"Alright, geez… So where is your pale ass again?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes. "In my room, you idiot..."
"I'm on my way."
Sasuke ended the call and prayed for Kiba to hurry the damn up before he fainted and he would not need that to happen.
"Slow down Kiba!" Sakura yelled under a whisper with her point finger in front of her lips when she saw Kiba was running toward Sasuke's room and hell if Kiba wasn't loud.
Kiba grinned toward Sakura. "I'm hauling Sasuke's pale ass." Kiba said and he disappeared inside Sasuke's room. Sakura rolled her eyes and let it go. Well, it was not like the first time had happened. Sasuke as their boss was kind of tolerance despite of his bastardish attitude. Well, maybe because they were high school friends. So Sakura shrugged it off and continued her tasks in hands.
Few minutes later, Sakura watched as the door of Sasuke's room opened to reveal Kiba who was supporting Sasuke from falling. Well, Sakura could tell from the aspirin before. Lately Sasuke had been forcing himself a little bit too much.
"Sakura, you can go home now."
"Are you alright sir?" Sakura asked politely. They were still in the office so formality was still needed.
"What do you think?"
Sakura sweat-dropped. No matter what, a bastard is a bastard, don't care if you are sick or not, Sakura thought, she smiled drily.
"Kiba, you drop me first and after that, drop Sakura." Sasuke said and forced Kiba to continue so support him from walking and they knew that they not need to reply that.
Supporting Sasuke from walking with Sasuke's eyes closed and eyebrows knitted together, Kiba looked on his back and grinned to the smiling Sakura before she followed the two behind.
Despite of his bastardish attitude, he is still nice indeed, Sakura thought happily and the three made their way and left.
"Where are your medicines, Sasuke?" Sakura asked as she watched Kiba helped Sasuke to lay on the king sized bed. She knew a little about medicines and some stuff related to that, before she entered the business administration in college, anyway…
"It's on the drawer inside the bathroom."
Sakura frowned seeing Sasuke looked so weak. It was just didn't suit him. She shrugged it off and headed to the bathroom which was connected to the bedroom.
"Ugh… You look like shit, man…" Kiba commented after he dropped Sasuke to the bed. It wasn't like his first time he was here so, yeah…
"Hn."
Kiba rolled his eyes from the typical reply those Uchihas always did as he eyed Sasuke. He looked so vulnerable and it didn't suit him. Sasuke was still in his black shirt and black trousers minus jacket and tie, eyes covered with his arm.
Despite of Sasuke's bastardish attitude, he was still the coolest person ever so Kiba was okay with him.
Kiba snorted.
Sasuke uncovered his eyes and glared. "What's your problem?" come the flat question.
"Now-now Kiba…" Kiba looked behind him just to see Sakura was with a tray he suspected there was a glass of water and a plate. He knitted his eyebrows to see two pills of something he didn't know what the hell was it.
Sakura made her way to the nightstand next to Sasuke's bed and placed the tray there.
"You haven't eat now have you?" Sakura stoop up and put her hands on her hips.
"No, mom." was the deadpan reply coming from the bed.
Kiba laughed.
Sakura rolled her eyes. "Kiba, keep Sasuke awake. And you two stay here."
"I'm okay Sakura, no need to-"
"No, you are not, Sasuke. I'll be back."
Click.
Sasuke and Kiba sighed when Sakura disappeared.
"Damn woman." Sasuke murmured curtly and Kiba laughed as he reached a gray remote somewhere and turned the television on.
Damn rich bastard.
"I'll cut your salary if you break anything."
Kiba rolled his eyes and turned up the volume.
Sasuke sat up immediately and glared at Kiba deadly. "Are you deaf?"
"I'm keeping you awake, geez… Alright! Stop being a bitch." Kiba earned a death glare and he could only gulp but turned down the volume nonetheless.
Still glaring toward Kiba's direction, Sasuke stuffed his pillows against the headboard before he leaned on it.
"You need a girlfriend, man…" Kiba said and once in a while glancing at Sasuke's direction, which the-said person was still glaring. "I mean, boyfriend, or whatever suits you. I mean, look at you…"
"Why are you still here again?"
Kiba rolled his eyes and decided to continue watching whatever show was playing on the television before the door cracked open to reveal Sakura with a tray of foods.
Kiba eyed it and gulped. His hand made a gesture of reaching the tray when Sakura was near abut alas his hand got slapped away and Sakura sent him a glare.
"Later." Sakura said.
Kiba nodded but still eyeing the tray, he could smell the foods, damn it must be delicious! Kiba thought and he gulped.
Sasuke smirked at Kiba before he reached the tray from Sakura and placed it on top of his lap. "Thanks Sakura."
Sakura nodded and she made her way to sit next to Kiba and decided to watch the TV to kill the time waiting for Sasuke to finish his foods and medicines.
Few minutes later when Sasuke was done, Sakura grabbed the dirty utensils and instructed Kiba to stand up.
"I will drop it on my way out." Sakura informed.
"We are going." Kiba headed to the door and held it opened for Sakura.
Sasuke nodded his thanks. "Kiba, don't forget tomorrow. I expect to see you first thing in the morning."
Kiba's mouth went into an "o" shape.
"…with my car." Sasuke added.
"Man, you should rest just for a day." Kiba retorted. Sakura nodded in agreement.
"I still have works to do."
"A day won't hurt, Sasuke…" Sakura commented.
"I'll take a day off, not tomorrow, but the day after."
Kiba and Sakura seemed to hesitate but seeing Sasuke's expression, the two sighed and bid their goodbye.
One word for Uchihas…
Stubborn.
