Chapter 2: A party, two people and a bet

"Glad you came…" Naruto welcomed Nia inside. He was having a start of term party at his house. Every popular kid invited. Inside the party at full blast, the music was so loud that one could barely hear himself.

Sasuke sat on a couch with Ino and Sakura at both his sides as usual. He saw Nia come in wearing a cute blue party dress. Unfortunately for him she looked really hot.

"What the hell is she doing here?" He said to Sakura.

"Naruto probably invited her. Word's out that Naruto's going to ask her out soon." Sakura replied.

Somehow Sasuke didn't like the sound of that. Not that he cared about Naruto. No it was something about Nia being asked out. He decided to ignore the weird feeling in the pit of his stomach.

"Too bad for her she'll be bored to death here. Who's going to notice her?" Ino said in a low whisper.

But unfortunately Ino was sooo wrong that it wasn't even funny. In the ten minutes she was here Nia had become the heart and life of the party. Everyone wanted to talk to her and everyone did. Everyone wanted to dance with her. Even the seniors.

"You know she's not that bad." Naruto jumped onto the couch. next to Sakura.

"I think he's right. Look at all the senior guys around her." Ino said matter of factly.

"You too?" Sasuke asked her annoyed.

"No listen. She's getting pretty popular. If she hangs out with us, we could rule the whole school. Right now its only tenth grade. Think of what would happen if we get the seniors to worship us."

"Ino is popularity all you think of?" Naruto smiled. "But if it gets you to consider Nia as a friend… whatever."

"Actually not only popularity… She has a great sense of style. And like they say birds of a feather flock together…" Ino grinned.

"Not happening…" Sasuke firmly shook his head. Sakura kept quite.

"Oh never mind you…" Ino looked at Sasuke and then at Sakura. "Sakura come on lets make friends with her and then lets see if we can get the seniors to dance with us."

"Alright…" Sakura finally gave in smiling.

"Hey you're here with me!" Sasuke said pointing at himself.

"Yeah well I don't see you getting your lazy ass of the couch to dance with me… See ya…" She and Ino walked off.

"Dude enjoy the party. And give her a try. She'll work out. I promise." Naruto looked at him. He then got up and went to the food table to get some ramen to eat.

"Give her a try…" He whispered to himself. He somewhat liked the sound of that.

"Hey Uchiha what happened? Friends dumped you?"

Great here she came like a strong gust of wind. She sat down next to him with a glass of coke in her hand.

"Nice party isn't it?" He asked her uncertainly.

She raised her eyebrows.

"Are you okay Uchiha? You're trying to have a normal conversation with me?"

And he was supposed to give this girl a try?

"Yeah I am. I guess I figured I didn't want to disappoint a lady."

"Okay… 100 on the weird scale" She said looking at him. " But if you can try then so can I. Yes it is a very nice party."

Well this was a nice start.

"So…"

"Just one thing. Don't try to flirt with me… I hate that." She cut in.

That was completely out of the ordinary.

"Why? You get that a lot?"

She thought for a minute and then replied.

"Yes.. yes I do…"

"Um… tell me the guys that did flirt with you were they blind?"

"What?"

"You know I mean… did they have eyes to see you I mean you know…"

"Are you trying to be funny?"

"No it's comes naturally."

"You mean you're naturally bad at it?"

"Excuse me?"

"Yeah because you're not funny. So stop that ego thing…"

"Ego?"

"You're being egotistical. Now if you want to know what that means…"

"I know what it means!"

"Good… at least you're not dumb."

"What do you mean by 'at least'?"

"You know popular, mean, flirt, egotistical. Dumb would just add to the seasons gift package."

"What is your problem?"

"My problem?"

"Yes your problem" He mimicked her.

"Well lets just say I don't like guys like you."

"Guys like me?" Sasuke pointed at himself.

"Um hmm. All you care about is yourself. Your reputation and how many girls you can get."

"That hurts."

"Want more?"

"Don't act like you know me…"

"I'm not acting."

"Really… what more then?"

"You can never truly like a girl for who she is. It'll always be about her looks."

"How do you know that?"

"I just do. I've met guys like you before."

"Okay…" Sasuke shifted in his place and stared at her in the eyes. "Lets say I start liking you. And for who you are. Not just because you're all that. But truly for who you are. Would you accept me?"

"Depends on whether I like you back that way." Nia said seriously but still smiling.

Sasuke raised his eyes. Nia looked at him and read his expression.

"Not happening."

"Why I mean…"

"There you go you're acting like you're… like you're…" Nia struggled with her words.

"like I'm???" Sasuke looked at her grinning.

"Like you're irresistible. Like everyone whose met you has to like you."

"And that's kind of true. I am pretty darn good looking."

"Yeah there you go… Being egotistical! But you and me is not happening. Uchiha I can never fall for a guy like you."

"I don't know Nia. What if I make you?"

"Are you challenging yourself to make me like you?" She asked him in surprise.

"Yeah I guess I am. Because Nia. I've started liking you."

Nia laughed and then looked at his serious face.

"You're serious?" She said her expression turning from humor to horror.

Sasuke shrugged. Naruto picked that exact moment to drop in and position himself between those two.

"What did I miss?"

"Well I gave Nia a try and I might just like her." Sasuke smiled and winked at Nia.

"Like I said not happening…" She grinned.

"We'll see."

"You're on…"

"Fine."

"Fine."

"Can someone please tell me what's going on?" Naruto cut in between.
