Chapter 1: Sasuke's outburst
Today is another bright and sunny day in Konoha and as usual, one loudmouth Naruto, one brooding Sasuke and one always cheery Sakura are waiting in the bridge for their perverted and very, very, VERY late sensei. Team 7 didn't notice but our certain Uchiha avenger kept stealing glances from our pink-haired kunoichi. He was debating with himself on why he kept on looking at her.
They are now 16, Naruto developed a look of his own which was not bad, Sasuke grew into a fine young man and Sakura transformed into a beautiful lady with the right curves on just the right places. Of course, the Uchiha didn't fail to notice this; so did every other guy in the village. When he first noticed the looks men where giving his female teammate, something woke up inside of him. A feeling of over protectiveness. Though he insisted to himself that it is not his duty to protect her and he doesn't have any feelings for her, he couldn't deny the fact that somehow, she was able to get through him and melt some of the ice in his heart.
Kakashi, after three long hours, arrived suddenly with a comical "poof."
"Good morning! Sorry I'm late, I was lost on…." But before he could finish, Naruto and Sakura screamed.
"YOU'RE LATE!"
"Thank you very much for informing me but I think I know that."
"..hn…"
"hmmph!"
"Anyway, what are we going to do today, Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura asked.
"Oh, training is cancelled today. Tsunade-sama just talked to all of us jounin-senseis before we went to our teams. She informed us that on the eve of the festival, there will be a gathering of all ninjas."
"You mean a dance?" Sakura interrupted.
"Not exactly a dance, more of a party, it's not formal so you don't have to worry. But you have to go with a partner."
"How come? I thought it wasn't formal?"
"You'll see why when you get there and all ninjas are required to come. Is that clear?"
"..hn.."
"Okay"
"Yes Kakashi-sensei"
"Now, there are my good students…..bye!" and with another poof, he disappeared.
After Kakashi left, all three ninjas are left with their own thoughts.
Sakura POV
I would like to go with Sasuke-kun but I'm sure he'll reject me. Maybe Rock Lee would like to be my partner.
Naruto POV
I'll go with Hinata-chan! But what about that dog-boy Kiba…maybe he'll ask her too.
Sasuke POV
Who will I go with?"
He looked at Naruto. He was grinning widely like an idiot.
Nope, I am not going with that dobe!
He looked at Sakura who was lost in her own world.
Nope…..but maybe?...damn party!
After hours of debating with themselves…..
Naruto POV
I'll go with Hinata-chan no matter what!
Sakura POV
I guess Rock Lee would be alright.
Sasuke POV
Let's see who are the ninjas I'm acquainted with?
Lee- too youthful.
Neji-damned Hyuuga
Tenten-she'll go with the Hyuuga
Chouji-he'll go with his chips
Shikamaru-he'll be cloud watching all the time
Ino-too noisy
Shino-too freaky
Kiba-too loud
Hinata-too nervous
Naruto-simply a dobe
Sakura-annoying but….
I have no choice; I just have to settle with Sakura. If she asks me, I'll just have to simply accept. Now, here she comes…
Sakura was finally done thinking and decided to go with Rock Lee but before that, she had to approach Naruto and Sasuke just so thy wouldn't wonder who she was going with.
"Uhmm, Naruto, Sasuke-kun…..I just wanna tell you, since I know Naruto wants to go with Hinata and sasuke-kun will probably say no, I'm going with Rock Lee."
"What, fuzzy eyebrows? Are you crazy?!" Naruto yelled.
Sasuke was too shocked to speak. A vein popped out of his head and his left eye began to twitch.
"Sakura-chan, are you that desperate? Let me find a partner for you."
"Hey, Rock Lee's not that bad!"
twitch
"Well, okay then, go with him!"
"Uhmm…Sasuke-kun…." Sakura began.
twitch
"No"
"What?"
"I said no."
"What do you mean Sasuke-kun?"
"I said no, you are not going with Rock Lee."
"But Sasuke-kun……"
"You're going with me."
Birds chirping….
"What?!!!" Naruto screamed, "Are you really Sasuke? The Sasuke? The one who never volunteers for anything?"
"Can you please repeat it, Sasuke-kun?"
"You're annoying. You heard me so don't make me repeat myself."
"…"
"So it's settled Sakura-chan, you're going with Sasuke-teme."
"Okay then, I have to go, bye Naruto, bye Sasuke-kun and thank you."
Sakura walked back home in a daze.
After Sakura was out of earshot, Naruto faced Sasuke and grinned his fox-like grin.
"What?"
"You know what, Sasuke-teme."
"..hn.."
"You like Sakura-chan, don't you?"
"Shut up dobe"
"Hmmph….Sasuke-teme's in love with sakura-chan"
"Shut up!"
"Sasuke-teme's in love with sakura-chan, Sasuke-teme's in love with sakura-chan, Sasuke-teme's in love with sakura-chan"
"Stop that!"
"I won't until you tell me the truth. You were jealous, weren't you?"
Sasuke was starting to lose patience.
"Weren't you, teme?"
"…"
"Weren't you?"
"…"
This dobe never knows when to give up.
"Fine, I'll tell you, I'm jealous, happy now?!"
"Really, wait till I tell…"
"Don't even think about it."
"Huh, why?"
"Are you dumb or what? Just don't tell anybody, especially Sakura."
"Why?"
"Because she'll just cling to me like there's no tomorrow."
"oh….I won't tell but only if you tell her yourself."
"That what dobe?"
"That you like her and you were jealous of Rock Lee this morning."
"I can't."
"You should, she deserves to know. I've seen Sakura-chan cry all these years for you and now that she's reached her goal, I won't let you keep her from being happy. So tell her."
"Fine, I'll wait for the right time."
"Tell her at the party, she'll be ecstatic."
"..hn.."
"or else, I'll tell everyone else"
"Fine"
"bye then sasuke-teme, you better keep your promise!"
"..hn…"
