Chap. 2
"Where am I?" he asked
"My house" I replied
He chuckled.
"Who are you?"
"Sakura" I hesitated. "Sakura Haruno"
"Oh ok" he grinned.
I stared at his teeth, sharp like a vampire's.
"So your name" I asked
"Sasuke Uchiha"
"Oh" So his name is Sasuke Uchiha.
"What were you doing lying on the sidewalk like that" I asked.
"Oh um" he paused. "I caught off guard when I walk" he paused again. "taking a walk. I guess I was tired".
It sounded like he was lying because he paused two times. Maybe he just forgot what he did and thought of something else while he was "taking a walk".
"oh" I replied.
"You don't look familiar around here. Your new here?"
"Oh yeah, I just came here I guess"
"Do you go to school?" I asked
"Of course, do I look like a drop out?"
Well kind of with your low voice and kind of your attitude and your outfit. I thought
"No um I just um wanted to know"
"Yes at Franklin High"
"Oh I'm about to go there"
"Oh how so?"
"My mom used to be a professor at a college near Franklin"
"Oh you mean Dominian University"
"Yeah there and my mom knew that Franklin was a good school since she observed the school and the students at Franklin. So now I'm transferring to Franklin High"
"Which high school did you used to go to?"
"Renaissance Academy"
"You mean the school that makes you were uniforms?"
"Of course it's a private school and a popular to be exact"
"Some private schools does not make you wear uniforms"
"Of course not"
"So where does your mom work now?"
"What do you mean?"
"She used to work at the university right? So what happened to her?"
"Well since my father became the president of a big company, my mom has been relaxing at a big spa and doesn't need to think about money."
"So your rich?"
"Kind of yeah"
"You don't act rich"
"Of course not! I'm not bratty or spoiled, like the other snotty rich people in the world"
"Whoa harsh"
"So is this your villa?" he asked.
"Yeah my personal villa"
"Oh"
"Enough talk about me, what about you?"
"There's nothing much about me"
"Oh"
Then there was silence.
"Would you like to stay for the night?" I asked
"I guess, is your parents okay with that?"
"What did I tell, this is my villa not my parents"
"Oh ok"
"This is my personal villa, I have another villa in Japan but this is my get away villa so I could just get away from everything"
"Does your parents know that you're here"
"Of course they do because if they don't then choppers and cars would be chasing after me and getting me back home"
"Oh. How did you get here"
"Private jet"
"Oh"
"So where do you live?"
"Way up on the mountains"
"And you go to Franklin high?" I giggled a bit. Franklin must be a good school to attend.
" Would you stop asking me question!"
That was all of a sudden. Did he have a bad a temper or something? I stared at Sasuke's figure, he stared at the window, the wind blowing the curtains making a whistling noise.
"What's it like to be normal?" he murmured
"What?"
"Never mind"
I heard what he said but not clearly.
I grabbed my bag that was sitting on the kitchen table. I wonder how it got there. I walked to the kitchen and grabbed my bag. I was looking for a pager that Gaara gave me so I can contact him. I didn't want to interrupt him from his dream by waking him up so paging him is better. I grabbed my pager and paged Gaara to wake up and come downstairs.
Gaara walked downstairs and I came out of the kitchen and stood in front of Gaara.
"Gaara, could you please grab some extra pillows and blankets for our guest?" I smiled and we both looked at Sasuke and looked back at each other.
"Right away" and he ran upstairs to the storage closet and tossed them down to me.
I carried the extra pillows and blankets and laid it down on the sofa.
"Sasuke, would you like to sleep here or in the guest room?" I asked
"Here would be fine"
"Sorry my maid is not here so if you need anything just call me or Gaara"
"Gaara?"
"My butler or a guy who has to follow me around"
He chuckled.
"Hey before we go to sleep"
"Hmm?"
"Are you going to be starting tomorrow?" Sasuke asked
"I thought no questions?"
"Just answer my question"
"What? School? Yeah"
"Oh. Good night"
"Good night"
"Oh one more thing about tomorrow"
"What?"
"Don't think were friends, in fact don't even think about talking to me tomorrow if we do meet"
I was surprised to hear him say that. He has mixed up attitudes. First he's nice then mean then nice again then mean again. Sasuke is a mystery to me.
I walked upstairs and looked down at the living room where he was sleeping. He prepared himself for bed and laid down on the sofa and closed his eyes.
"Sleep tight Sasuke" I whispered. And I saw him smiled.
I continued going upstairs and I got ready for bed and I went to sleep.
