(evening)

I had just finished my conversation with my Sensei, about the new mission I had with Sasuke. We were to go to the Leaf Village and take one of the magic scrolls. The scroll of the Forbidden Taekus. Sounds dangerous huh? Well it is.

Anyway as I was walking, I heard voices. Two girls. I recognized them as Ino and Sakura.

"What if she finds out, Sasuke likes her?" Ino said.

"She won't. As long as neither of us tell anyone. Rema will not find out that Sasuke likes her."

What? Did she just say that Sasuke likes me? I thought to myself.

That can't be true, he doesn't like anyone. And if he did, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be me.

"I heard that her and Sasuke are going on a mission together." Molly said.

"What?"

"Yeah. I'm pretty sure she chose him."

"Maybe she knows."

"Or maybe she's just a whore, and seduced him."

Whore? Who are they calling a whore?

"No, it can't be that. Sasuke's not easily pulled in by temptation." Sakura said.

"How do you know that?"

"I'm on his team, duh."

"Whatever."

*cough* STALKER *cough*

The girls turned to face me, surprise written all over their faces.

I walked towards them. "So, what is this I hear about Sasuke liking me?"

"U-Oh! Nothing. He doesn't like you." Ino said.

"Yeah. We were only kidding." Sakura said.

"Yeah, and don't act like you didn't already know." Ino said.

"Actually, I didn't know until now."

"What?"

"Yeah. Maybe I should ask him out."

"NO!" They yelled.

"Yeah. I gonna do it." I said, walking away.

Idiots. Are they really that naíve?

I'm not going to ask Sasuke out.

They are so…stupid.

As I was walking trough the forest, I felt a drop on my nose, and then it began to rain, in which turned into a down pour. I began to run in the rain. Laughing and twirling and dancing in the rain.

(I know this all sounds bizarre, but Hey, I love the rain)

As I was spinning in the rain, I ran into a tree and fell backwards.

I held my eyes closed for a moment, as I overcame the "stunnedness" (my new word)

When I opened my eyes, I'm startled to find Sasuke staring down at me, looking at me like I was insane.

"Are you okay?" He asked me.

I opened my mouth, trying to speak, but I could not make out the sounds of the words.

"Do you need help?" He asked, his hair soaked by the rain and dangling over his face.

"Uhh, yeah." I said, finally able to throw up words.

He extended his hand and pulled me up from behind. I turned around to face him.

"What were you doing?" He asked.

Embarrassment rushed through my body.

I couldn't tell him the real reason, it was too weird. I can't just say;

"Oh. I was dancing in the rain and ran into tree."

Even though it was the truth.

No! I had to lie.

"You see, I was running, to see how long I could run without stopping. And when I looked back to see how far I had run, I ran into a tree." I explained.

"Uhm…okay." He said. Though I knew he didn't buy it. "Be more careful."

"I'll try." As I said this, I caught a glimpse of Ino and Sakura. Haha. Time to make them jealous.

"You wanna go back to my house to dry off?" I asked.

"Uh. Yeah. Sure." He said.

We walked through the "rain forest", headed to my house.

I opened the door to my house and walked in. Sasuke following close behind.

"Mom!" I called. "Reba!" I shrugged. "Hm. I guess no one's home." I pulled two towels from off a rack, and handed one to Sasuke. We dried off, the best we could, and headed upstairs to my room. I took out a fresh pair of clothes and went to change in the bathroom.

When I came back in the room, I found Sasuke standing in the middle of the room, with nothing but his boxers on, drying off his arms, legs and torso.

His lean and muscular body was to die for. He was HOT.

He looked up at me in startled. He stood, froze, not sure of what to do.

"Uhm…Uh…I-I'll leave, and you can come downstairs when…when you're finished." I said and closed the door. I sighed in relief. Man he is hot.

(I wish you could've seen it) No wonder Ino and Sakura were so in-love with him.

Minutes later, Sasuke came down, clothed and all dry.

How come every time I saw him, it seemed as if he knew something secretive about me?
