I hold on so nervously
To me and my drink
I wish it was cooling me
But so far, has not been good
It's been shitty

Sasuke was sitting at the bar and wondering how Naruto had managed to get him here. After a long day at Uchiha Enterprises all he wanted to do was go home and sleep. Instead his best friend had somehow convinced him to come to a stupid bar. This was not his scene. He wasn't really used to this type of thing. Naruto was the wild one, Sasuke had to work, all the time. He was 21 and as soon as he had gotten out of business school last year, his dad unloaded the company on him.

And
I feel awkward, as I should
This club has got to be
The most
pretentious thing

He looked around. Naruto was flirting with some girl on the dance floor. It amazed him that his clumsy friend could actually dance! His eyes skimmed around, nothing very interesting... HOLD ON! Who is that?! Damn she's hot! His eyes caught a girl who was leaning on the bar fifteen feet away from him, conversing with the bartender. Get her!! A little voice was screaming in his head. FUCK HER RAW!! the little voice kept repeating it, over and over. NO!! He yelled back in his mind. Oh come on!! Just think of what it must feel like to be on top of her!! In some dim room... the voice chanted over and over, like a mantra.
-x-
Since
I thought you and me
Well I am imagining
A dark lit place
Or
your place or my place
-x-
Damn! Look at her eyes! Hehehe . . . I knew I'd win. Sasuke cursed himself for being aroused by this girl he didn't even know. But it was had not to look at her, when he looked at her she would look right back at him, seemingly calling him with her eyes . . . or was it something else? He didn't know. He couldn't move, or rather he didn't want to as he watched her sip her martini, now sitting down.
-x-
Well
I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to
make you move
Because you're standing still
-x-
No matter what he did his eyes always seemed to find her, even out of the dozens and dozens of people in the bar. With her pink hair pulled up in a messy but stylish bun, perfect figure and mesmerizing, shimmering jade eyes, she reminded him of someone he once knew, but he couldn't quite place it, which was odd. How often do you see someone with pink hair?
-x-
If
your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move
right through
Me on my way to you

Sakura was exhausted, beyond that, she wanted to curl up in a ball and hibernate for the rest of her life. She had been working straight 12 hour days at the hospital for months and it was really taking a toll on her. What she needed was sleep, but no! Her friends said that all she needed was a night out. Pfft! She didn't even have the strength to argue with them, she just put on her black halter-top dress that fell to her knees and had hot-pink flowers in the bottom right corner, tied up her black ballet flats, pulled out her hot-pink purse, put her hair up and let them drag her here.
It wasn't a complete loss, when they had arrived her friends had ditched her for the dance floor, so she made her way to the bar. The twenty-year-old pinkette was leaning on the bar waiting for her drink when she eyed a tall handsome man at the other end of the bar, sitting on a stool. Damn he looks F-I-N-E!! The stupid voice called Inner-Sakura yelled. She ordered another drink and kept looking at the man who reminded her of someone she must've known once with the same black hair and onyx eyes. It would be pretty hard to remember though, she knew many people who fit that description. She really didn't want to be here, but that man was changing it all.
-x-
I
hold out for one more drink
Before I think
I'm looking too
desperately
But so far has not been fun
I should just stay
home
If one thing really means one
-x-
She was battling with her Inner who seemed to like the idea of jumping that man right then and there. What the fuck?! I have a little more dignity then THAT!! This bar sucked, it smelled bad and it only played that messed up techno music that's heard at every single bar in town. While she was critiquing, the club her Inner was trying to devise a plan to leave . . . with the man. Just imagine it . . . him in you err- us? The little -big- voice said, scratch that chanted. Okay, messed up Inner needs to shut up . . . NOW!! She screamed in her head, it didn't work, Inner Sakura was making quite the effort to get in that man's pants.
-x-
This
club will hopefully
Be closed in three weeks
That would be cool
with me
Well I'm still imagining
A dark lit place
Or your
place or my place
-x-
Sasuke gave up. His Inner wasn't gonna let him live through this. He got up and walked over to the woman, put his drink down and sat beside her. He didn't know what to say, he never did this, pick up a girl in a bar, that is. "Sasuke" he offered his hand to her, she took it. "Sakura, nice to meet you" she let go and sipped her drink. Sasuke was paralysed, her voice was soft and sweet, enticing.
-x-
Well,
I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to
make you move

You'll probably move right

Me on my way to you

Sakura was awestruck, she was playing eye games with the man but never expected him to do anything about it. "Sasuke" she introduced himself, his voice velvety, husky and persuasive. "Sakura, nice to meet you" she had said as she shook his outstretched hand. She had just managed to move, his voice, his touch, made her freeze, it was like she was . . . paralysed. After the introductions they sat in silence, she needed to calm the voice in her head, not to mention the burning sensation in the pit of her stomach.

"You know the hotel on the corner?" she whispered in his ear. She didn't know what she was doing, she just said it spur of the moment type thing, when he nodded she was surprised. "Fifteen minutes, room 218" she said and drank the rest of her dry martini, got up and was making her way through the crowd of people to get to the door.

She caught him of guard, despite the sweetness of her voice it had sounded lustful and velvety when she whispered in his ear, it sent shivers down his spine. Room 218. All he needed to do was get there and it was done, the deal was sealed. He got up, paid for his drink and made a beeline to the door. He had fifteen minute to get there.

You'll
probably move right through

He counted the number on the door as he clutched the key she had left him at the front desk in his right hand. 210. 216. 218. He put the key in and twisted it. Surely enough, there she was sipping a dry martini with an olive, sitting on the edge of the bed. This was going to be a story for the next company Christmas party.

"Hey teme!" Naruto yelled. Sasuke groaned, he had been sitting at his desk working peacefully when his friend's loud cheery voice interrupted him. "Guess who I saw last night at the bar!" he yelled again. "Hn" Sasuke replied. "Come on, guess!" "No." "Well, I'm gonna tell you anyway! I saw Sakura-chan last night!" "Who?" "You remember Sakura, don't you?" Naruto sounded appalled, how could Sasuke NOT remember her? "You guys were pretty close sophomore year. Pink hair, green eyes, Haruno Sakura? Ringing any bells?" Oh snap! That girl from last night! That was Sakura Haruno?! The girl he had dated in 10th grade! Until she had gotten accepted into university 2 years earlier then she was supposed to?! She had come back to Konoha after finishing university? Sasuke had to lie, and quick.
"No I don't remember" he replied. How do you always save your ass like that? The little voice was back again. It's a gift, he replied. "So yeah, she called me a couple of months ago to say hi and that she was back, but I wasn't home and she left a message" Naruto blabbed out. "Naruto?" Sasuke asked. "Yeah?" "Did she leave a number?"

Sakura had taken the day off to recover from her hangover. She was currently sitting on her queen size bed, with the green sheets and pink comforter, looking through some stuff she had forgotten to unpack when she first moved in. She picked up another box and cut the tape with her pocketknife. She sifted through it and grabbed her old highschool year book. She flipped through the pages there were a bunch of class pictures and quite a few with her and some people she remembered to be Naruto, Hinata, Ino, Shikamaru, Neji and TenTen. Funny, who was that other guy, with the onyx eyes and the black hair that looks like a chicken's ass.
She flipped the page and saw a picture of her on the guy's back being carried across the field in her cheerleader uniform while the guy was wearing a soccer uniform. Under the picture was written: 'Soccer team wins gold! Captain Uchiha Sasuke takes girlfriend Haruno Sakura, captain of te cheerleading squad, on back for victory lap!' Oh my fucking lord! That guys from last night was SASUKE!! Oh wow! That's really weird.
Her phone rang so she jumped off her bed and scrambled to the kitchen to answer it. " Hi! Haruno Sakura how can I help you?"
So you like it? Want a sequel? Tell me if you do! I have an idea in mind so if ya want on I can give it to you! You don't have to review if you don't want too, but if you don't I won't know if you want a sequel or not.
Ja ne!
