Chapter Two
Tales of Juugo and Jealousy
Version 1.0
Will they ever know?
Everyone else does.
And they're simply…In the dark.
Juugo pondered his next move. The last month he had been working on this and nothing had worked. And, lately, Karin seemed to be staying very far away from him. Suigetsu was too. Maybe that meant something.
But, then again, Sasuke seemed to be keeping his distance too. So maybe it didn't.
Recently, Sasuke had been acting different. Karin had voiced her assumption that his old team from Konoha was close by. Suigetsu had added to this by suggesting that Sasuke was in love with someone from his old team.
Judging from the result of this comment, Juugo still had some work to do.
It was at this moment that Juugo stopped his thought process to realize that he was being stared at. Every single member of his team was looking at him. Sasuke with that unexpressive look, Karin with distrust, and Suigetsu with…hate? Maybe this was working.
Juugo smiled and Sasuke left. Apparently he had told the others where he was going while Juugo was thinking because they didn't ask questions or seem to wonder. Now was the moment.
"So…Karin," Juugo smiled and moved closer, putting his arm around the red-headed female. "Ya know, I don't think you and Sasuke make a very good couple. So, maybe you and me could-" Karin began rapidly shaking her head no.
"Or not…" he mumbled as she walked away quickly.
SUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASasuke returned not long after Juugo's failed attempt. They had walked for hours with many complaints from Suigetsu, and many complaints about Suigetsu's complaints from Karin.
The night was clear, just as it had been on the night that Juugo had first initiated his plan. He smiled into the fire and looked up at Karin, who was eating her fish and not paying attention, then turned his glance to Suigetsu, who was eating his fish and paying all the attention in the world. To Juugo.
Juugo, ironically, felt a bit scared of the smaller man. He cleared his throat and looked at Karin. "So…Karin." He began, using the same words as earlier.
The girl moved in a circular motion to the farthest side of the fire from Juugo.
This wasn't going to work if she kept escaping!
So he decided to take the plunge! He walked around the fire, picked her up, and kissed her on the mouth as hard as she could.
When he woke up hours later, he noted that it had been Karin who had punched him. Damn. He had been hoping for Suigetsu.
SUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKASUIKALong time for an update. Sorry about that! I know how it's going to end and I'm thinking of finishing it tomorrow.
I may include a bit of SasuSomeone. So…tell me what it should be! It has to fit in with the story so it needs to be either SasuSaku or SasuNaru. I vote SasuSaku but it's really up to all of you!
See ya next time for the final chapter!
Oh, and I don't own Naruto!
