This is a partially true story! I'm waiting for someone important to call me and I hate waiting! It's been almost half an hour past the time I asked him to call. So here's a fanfiction to help take my mind off the suspense. Enjoy! :D
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, duh.
Call Me
Sakura sat by the phone, watching it like a hawk watches the prey. Her green eyes were wide with anxiety and some impatience.
"You'll call me tonight, right?"
"Of course".
She rested her arms on the armrest of the couch, leaning over the edge somewhat. Her chin rested on her arms, and only the sound of the clock ticking was heard in the otherwise silence of the lounge room.
"Arrghh! Call me already!" She finally cracked. It had been a full ten minutes past the time he had promised to call. She didn't get to see him at school that day except in the morning because she had a test. A three hour test that would keep her in during recess. On Wednesdays, they all knocked off at midday which meant that there was no lunchtime break, and even then she was fifteen minutes later than that to get out.
"Fifteen minutes! Call already!" She screamed at the phone. Obviously, it didn't reply. She groaned and buried her head in her arms.
RING!
Before the phone even had a chance to ring twice, her arm shot out and picked up the receiver.
"Hello?" She answered quietly.
"Hi. Would you be interested in switching phone compani-"
She slammed the receiver back down on its dock. Wasn't even a real person! A bloody recording!
Sakura let out a frustrated yell and slammed her head down back on her arms.
Twenty minutes.
"Call me…!" She sobbed exaggeratingly, sounding muffled because her head was still buried in her arms.
RING!
Again her arm shot out at lightning speed, cutting off the sound.
"Hello?" She answered tentatively.
"Sakura! It's Ino! Wanna hang out?" The blonde's cheerful voice said from the other end of the line.
"GO AWAY! I'M BUSY!" She slammed the receiver down again.
Ino sat bewildered, phone still in hand.
"Uhh… Maybe tomorrow then…?" The blonde hesitatingly asked, although Sakura had already hung up.
Thirty minutes.
"I can't take this!" She whined loudly, sobbing again into her arms. The phone remained dead silent.
RING!
"H-hello?" She was just a little slower this time.
"Is your refrigerator running?" A voice asked, trying to sound deeper than it truly was.
"PISS OFF!" Sakura screamed into the receiver, slamming it down yet again. She was amazed by how much of a beating this phone could take.
Naruto sat just as bewildered as Ino had just a little while ago.
"I-it was only a joke… wow…" He stuttered. Never again would he prank call the pinkette.
Forty-five minutes.
She rolled off the couch pathetically. Gazing at the ceiling with glazed over eyes, Sakura let out a tiny whimper of frustration.
"I'm gonna get a drink", she said to absolutely no one. And, like a zombie, she limped into the kitchen. Filling a glass with water from the faucet, she downed it in one gulp.
RING!
Sakura bolted into the lounge room. But accidentally tripped on the rug and face planted. Reaching up slowly, she picked up the receiver.
"Please tell me that's you, Sasuke…" She mumbled.
"It is. Hey babe, how's your day been?"
A pretty little smile graced Sakura's face. Suddenly, it was completely worth the wait.
It's been an hour, and he still hasn't called me :(
