A/N IMPORTANT: I changed the TITLE of this story. Just so you're aware. So I changed 'Me and Him' to 'Still A Kid'. So it'll suit both Sasuke and Sakura. Since I've decided to make a Sasuke POV. If it's -Me and Him-, that means it's Sakura's POV. If it's -Me and Her-, it's Sasuke's. Okay...
Disclamer: I don't own NARUTO.

Still A Kid
-Me and Her-
2. That Stupid Doll
_
_
Mother was being childish. Really. She asked me to compare the difference between two stupid looking dolls and tell her which ones better. Really, the dolls look stupid. They're just staring at whatever is in front of their stupid faces. With it's stupid marble-like eyes. And their stupid, stupid flowery dresses almost made me throw up. Did I mention it's stupid?
I glared at my mother's smiling face. "So Sasu-chan? Which one? Or should I get both?" She said cheerfully. Waving those stupid dolls in my face. I told her not to call me 'Sasu-chan'. It totally bruised my Uchiha Pride.
We were in the biggest toy shop in Konoha, also known as the Treasure Toy Shop. Really nothings special about this stupid shop. It sells toys! So what? It's really not worth anything coming here. My feet aches just by walking all the way here because it's located on the OTHER side of the village from where they lived. Plus, on the way there, people kept greeting mother like she's a celebrity and pinching my cheeks. The wost part is when they cooed stupid things at me such as 'Oh he's so adorable!' and 'My goodness! Look at him!! Isn't he the most cutest thing ever!!'.
And the fangirls. Oh I couldn't stand the fan girls. Those evil things! They're devils disguising as annoying fan girls to kidnap me and eat my brains! They're disgusting. The way they squeal my name every time I walks past them. The way the clung to my arms when mother was too busy talking to someone to notice her son was being SEXUALLY HARASSED!
........Hn.
"Mother, are you blind? They look exactly the same." I kept my face blank since I'm very good at that. Mother sighed. "Ugh, kids this days.." She mumbled to herself about what had she done to not get a sweet and bright daughter and ended up with two moody and arrogant sons. ...Which left me smirking. Mother decided to buy one of the same-looking dolls and we exited the shop.
It was then until, when we almost reached home did I realize that I have no idea why mother bought that stupid, stupid doll. Did an annoying fan girl hypnotized mother to adopt her so she could be closer to me and drool on me all day?
...That's stupid.
It annoys me that I can't find the answer why she bought that stupid thing unless...I ask her. But knowing mother, she's gonna be tricky about it. But you never know until you ask right? Hn.
So I put on a smile and tugged on the hem of her shirt. She stopped walking and bend down to my level. "What is it, Sasu-chan?" she smiled brightly at me. I smiled wider. In case you're wondering why I'm smiling, mother is much easier to deal with when I'm smiling. Yes, she'll coo and squeal about how cute I am later on, and I'll be annoyed and scowling all the way home. But for now, smiling is worth it to get the information about why she bought that stupid doll.
"What's the...doll for?" I restrained myself from saying 'stupid doll' in front of her face. Mother blinked, she looks like the question didn't register in her brain. Then she smirked. My eyes widened. Uh-oh. It's THE smirk.
She only smirks like that when she's planning on doing something crazy.
Like that time when she decided to give me a haircut. I lost my in the end where it sticks up. I didn't go out of my room without a hat after that. Luckily, it grows long again in two weeks.
She also smirks like that when we went shopping for new cloths for a stupid festival. She bought me a PINK KIMONO and said; 'S'okay Sasu-chan. You already look like a girl. Why don't add a pretty kimono to complete your looks!!'
And that reminds me the next day. The day she smirks like that too. I ended up walking around Konoha in a dress. Don't ask why.
Or that day when she also smirks like that! The day she sets me up on a TEA PARTY with an extra annoying fan girl, aka her friend's youngest daughter. I still had nightmares about that brunette haired monster.
What I'm trying to say is....This is NOT going to be pleasant. Seriously, maybe she's going to feed me to some giant sharks. Or ground me from eating tomatoes!! I really preferred the first. Because the second is too awful. I can't survive without my tomatoes!
Or, or maybe she's going to dye my hair PINK!! ....That's ridiculous. But knowing mother, ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING...is possible.
"What're you up to?" I asked. No, more like choke every word out. And she was still smirking. I glared at her. She laughed.
"Oh, Sasuke-chan. It's nothing." I glared harder. My previous smile disappeared. "Mother..." I said. She was still smirking.
"It's a secret....But, someone special is coming to our place tomorrow. Someone very special. I'm sure you'll like that person." Mother said calmly. Her smirk gone. She stood back up. And began to walk the way back home.
I froze when she said the last sentence. Am still freezing.
Mother turned around. Her hands on her hips. "Are you coming, Sasu-chan? Or do you was to stay there? Because we're having tomato soup for dinner! You don't wanna miss that, right?"
As soon as I heard the word 'tomato', my feet moved forward by itself.

The tomato soup was great! I ate 3 bowls. While Itachi only poked at his.
Though...through the whole dinner, I couldn't stop thinking about that someone whose visiting tomorrow. I hoped it's not a fangirl. But still, the chances of that person could be a fan girl is VERY high. Since mother kept smirking the whole way home, and during dinner. And the fact that they went to buy a stupid doll at the other side of Konoha. Deep down I know, said person visiting tomorrow is a girl. But I couldn't register a bad feeling inside of me.
Somehow...somehow, I'm sure it's gonna be a very nice day tomorrow. A day...I'll never forget.
