Chapter four: Impressions

Ino decided to ignore the spiky-haired boy that dared to insult her. She got her revenge after all. She cleared her throat and spoke.

"Back to the reason we were here," She said as she crossed her arms up her chest. "Could you stop playing your guitars, bass AND drums? We're trying to relax after a long day and this doesn't help."

"Wait a second troublesome wo—" The boy wanted to say but was soon cut off by one of his friends, the one Ino saw kissing Sakura earlier. Sasuke, she supposed.

"We're sorry, ok?" He said. Ino had to admit it was hard to be mad after looking at him, he was drop dead handsome. "How about we do something to apologize, like.. Dinner in town, maybe?" He asked with a smirk.

Ino was about to reply, a positive reply, but Sakura replied first.

"Not even if the last thing left to eat would be my kidney."

Ino looked at her friend, surprised by her voice. She has known Sakura since forever and she knew that the pink-haired girl wasn't always calm and sweet like everybody knew. She had another personality-a terrifying one that not even the devil would not want to meet. Though, she rarely let that personality rule her. This was one of the moments her personality was about to come up.

"What's with that blunt reply?" Sasuke asked Sakura, approaching.

'Bad move pretty boy.' Ino thought.

"Come on, we'll drive you all in town." He insisted.

Sakura was looking at the floor, her dark aura surrounding her. She then looked at Sasuke with an expression Ino saw only once in her lifetime. She was angry, very angry.

"Drop dead." She then turned around, opened the door and the apartment, slamming the door.

There was a big silence following.

"I.. I'll take my leave too." Tenten whispered as she was looking at the floor.

She then walked away.

Ino, having been known in high school as Gossip Queen, heard what Tenten earlier, about that guy who looked a lot like Hinata and seemed to know her. She said something about coming back and being with her. Something definitely happened between those two and Ino will find out what.

"We'll leave too." Ino told the boys. She saw they all had surprised expressions, possibly because of Sakura's reaction. "Don't worry about Sakura, she's just in a bad mood."

"O-Ok.." Was all one of the boys could reply, the blonde one that seemed the nicest.

"Come on Hinata." The blonde said and Hinata bowed her head slightly before leaving.

'Calm down Sakura.' The pink-haired girl mentally encouraged herself.

She was back in the girls' apartment, sitting on the couch. Instead of being angry as she was two minutes ago, she was blushing madly. Even the top of her ears was red. Only when she would think about the kiss, two strong emotions would overwhelm her—anger and embarrassment.

"That jerk, I'll never forgive him!" She yelled throwing a pillow on the floor with as much strength as she could.

'I wonder why he did it. Maybe it's something normal in the big city.'

Oh, what does it matter? He's hotness on two legs. You should have kissed him back.

'Oh, not you again.'

The other voice inside Sakura's head was her inner self, whom she rarely let take control of her. Mostly because she would always do embarrassing things if she would lose control.

You always lose chances like this.

'What do you mean? I have never been in this kind of situation before.'

No, but guys hit on you in the past. Remember how popular you were in high school?

'I've never been popular. Lee was the only one who would keep asking me out and even he gave up in the last year.'

That's because the other didn't have the courage to ask you out. Oh please, I'm sure you observed all those boys who kept staring at you during PE.

'I do remember.. But there were prettier girls there, maybe they weren't staring at me.'

Idiot. Anyway, back to hotness-on-two-legs. You definitely can't miss this chance.

'You mean that I should date him?'

Right on the spot, girl.

"I'd prefer dying alone and virgin a thousand times better!" Sakura yelled out loud.

In that moment, the door opened revealing her friends. The girls were staring at her speechless and only then did she realize she was sitting with her legs on the couch, ready to tear off another pillow.

"Uh.. Should I even ask?" Tenten asked first.

"Please don't." The girl replied as she sighed and sat on the couch.

Hinata slowly approached Sakura and put her hand on her shoulder. Sakura looked up to see her friend smiling gently at her.

"We didn't get to eat, the food is going to get cold."

Sakura and the other girls nodded and sat at the table, silently eating their food.

After they finished and Hinata and Ino started washing the dishes, as it was their turn. Sakura and Tenten were sitting silent at the table. The pinkette could tell her friend was also lost in thoughts. She knew that if Tenten wanted to tell them her problems, she would, but most of time she didn't like to talk about her problems. Though, the girls were always there to make her feel better.

Sakura decided to ignore that jerk and do her role as a best friend.

"Hey girls, did my laptop arrive this morning with our things?" She asked.

"Yes, it's in your room." Hinata replied.

The apartment had two bedrooms. One was Hinata and Tenten's while the other was Sakura and Ino's.

The pinkette stood up and came back with her laptop. It wasn't a Macbook or anything, but it was very useful and she loved it.

"How about a movie?" Sakura asked as the two girls finished washing the dishes.

"What do you have in mind?" Ino asked.

"I heard about this good comedy." She started searching the trailer.

Hinata came with some snacks and sweets few moments later.

"How about a snack?" She asked smiling.

"Perfect." Tenten replied.

The girls sat on the couch and did what they would always do in a lazy afternoon.

It was already night when the movie ended, half past ten to be more precise.

All the girls laughed so loud and much that they were exhausted.

"I think I'll go sleep, I have to wake up early tomorrow to go to the flower shop." Ino said as she yawned.

"I'll go look for a part-time job. I don't have that much money left." Tenten said too.

"I'm pretty tired, I think I will sleep too." Hinata joined.

Sakura nodded. "I'll stay a bit longer. Tsunade-sensei gave me some material and I'd like to take a look. I think there's a homework too. Rest well girls."

The girls nodded in reply and left to their rooms.

'Ok, time to study.'

Come on, seriously? I'm really not in the mood for that.

'That's why I'm here, remember?'

Whatever.

Sakura then took a big folder with the classes she missed. She transferred after a month since the beginning of the year after all. Medicine was hard and she lost a lot, but she loved everything about this. It would be a pleasure to learn new things.

She sat down at the low, traditional-japanese style table the girls ate earlier. She put a warm blanket over her shoulders, a bottle of water next to her and a pen in her hand. Everything was perfect, that was the atmosphere Sakura lived to learn.

'Silence and peace.'

Just as she was about to read the first line, she heard someone's voice.

"Ok guys. One.."

'I think you're fucking kidding me.'

"Two.."

'They wouldn't dare.'

"Three!" And with that, a loud guitar was heard along with some drums and accompanied by girls' screams.

"What did I do to deserve this?" Sakura asked as she slammed her head to the table.

It will be a long night.
