I wrote this chapter. This is my own plot. I just don't own all the characters.. Sorry.


Truly

Saya-chan

It has been almost 10 years since my little sister died. I vowed to not let her die, but I failed. Horribly. And now I'm left in this world with no one to turn to. I've turned older. No one wants me now. I'm alone. Even James died for her. I wonder why I'm still here on Earth.

"Saya? You home?" Some one was knocking at the door. "Open up. it's me. Todd." Oh, Todd? I didn't know he knew where I lived. i opened the door for him and he came in.

"Hey, what's up?" I was really really confused. Wasn't he like, 30 something?

All he did was look around. I knew my apartment was really really small, but he was just really big. He has no right to complain!

"Um, I was wondering something?" He was avoiding my eyes. Hm? What does that mean? He used to always look me in the eye. "Have you visited Aki or James' grave lately?"

"No.. I only go on the day they died. It's bad enough then. Because I'm sure they're there watching. It scares me." He looked at me as if I was crazy. "James said he felt that way about Aki. And I know she never left his side." Well, James never talked to me since her funeral, but Todd didn't know that.

"Right. Well, I was going to ask if you'd come with me this year.. I don't like going alone and my girlfriend just left me." WHAT?! He isn't married yet?! THIS IS MY CHANCE! Well, that's what my brain kept saying. But my heart said not to take advantage.

"Sure, I'll go with you. Just come and get me. And remember, I'm going for sure in 3 days." He was about to leave and my mouth just started talking on it's own. "Hey, why don't you stay for dinner? I'm ordering pizza in a few minutes." He turned around and smiled. Did he know I was going to ask him that?

"Alright, Why don't I call and pay? You can go and do something else." Damn him! He can read my face! "Go on, I know what you like. Pepperoni right?"

I nodded and walked to my room down the hall. Ami might come home any minute.

Yea, I started living with Ami after she got out of college because she had no where to go. I predicted it. He took a shower... I guess he forgot to lock the door. I heard her scream and I ran out of my room in my underwear.

"Nice underwear, Saya." Todd was dressed. Ami just walked into the bathroom and he scared her.

"SHIT!" I ran back to my room as fast I could and hid. I put on a dress because he said I had to dress up. I wonder where he's taking me. He walked to my door and knocked a few times before opening the door.

"Saya, you almost ready?" He froze in the door way as soon as he saw me. "Wow, you're so beautiful." I couldn't help but blush. I was putting my make-up on. "Saya. I can't believe you own something that beautiful."

"And what is that supposed to mean?! " I snapped at him. When I looked at his face, he was really red. This is going to be an awkward night.

"Oh, um Saya? If you're called Mizumy tonight, don't say your name is Saya." What was he talking about? "We have to hurry. If we're late, I'll get in major shit with my parents." PARENTS?!

"Todd, what are you talking about?! Why would people call me Mizumy?" He didn't answer me. "What do you want me to do Todd? I want to know why I'm dressed up!" He just looked away.

"Because I want you to pose as my fiance. Alright?!" He looked back and seemed really angry. He lunged at me. I was scared and I couldn't do anything.

"Ah! Todd?! What's gotten into you?!" I was pinned to my bed. I couldn't break free. "Let me go now!"

Ami ran into the room because she heard me scream. "Todd! What the hell are you doing to Saya?!" I think he would have raped me. When he heard her speak, for some reason he loosened his grip.

"I'm sorry Saya." He got off me. When I looked in his eyes, they were blank.

"Todd, it's alright. I wouldn't have stopped you." I think I know the truth. She didn't leave him, she was killed. It was all over his face. "I'll go with you.." I reached up and touched his face.

He smiled down at me and Ami left the room. We made out for the first time since we've known each other. A 32 year old and a 28 year old. When we were done about 15 minutes later, he asked me something incredible. "Saya, would you please go out with me?"

All I did was stare at his face. "Todd.." I think I started to tear up because he wiped my eyes gently. "I don't know.. I don't know yet." He nodded and smiled a sweet smile at me. God how I wish he didn't do that. It hurt. But, why did it hurt so much?

"Saya? Can I come in?" Ami was knocking at the door. Todd had left almost an hour ago and I was thinking about the question he asked me.

"Ami.. Do you think I should go out with Todd? He asked me too." When I looked in her direction, she was looking dizzy.

"Huh?! He asked you out?" I could tell she wasn't fully grasping the idea. "Woah! Let me sit down and think!" She sat down and didn't move or say anything for half an hour. "Do you like him Saya?" She totally surprised me.

"Yea, I've liked him for a while. But I don't know if I still like his as much." It was true. I really liked him when Aki was still alive. But that was a long time ago. Almost 10 years. Truth is, I can't believe he still remembers me.

"Todd is a really nice guy. I see him all the time at work. That's how he knew where you lived. I told him." She's a brat. I kicked her out of my room. "SAYA?! I'm only telling you the truth!"

Tonight, I'll sneak out of the house. I'll go and ask Todd if he wants to go to the club tonight. I hope he'll say yes. I spent about 2 hours getting ready. I had to streak my hair, find my club outfit. And I had to straighten my hair, paint my nails, do my make-up, and everything else to look good.

I left as soon as I could. "You in there?" Ami came knocking at my door. No one answered her because I snuck out the window. "Saya? Hello??" When she came in, she was shocked. Luckily I closed the window after I jumped out. She would have found out way sooner.

I was on the streets heading towards Todd's house. It wasn't hard to find because there were tons of other people going to his house. I looked so wrong compared to these other people. THAT'S RIGHT! I was supposed to be his fiance tonight. Oh well. He'll have to sneak out with me tonight if he really wants to date me.

My phone started to ring. "Saya where are you?" It was Todd. "You said you'd be here tonight!" He was angry again.

"Where is your room?" I was circling his house looking for a light up stairs.

"What? It's in the back. Why are you asking me this now?" I saw someone look out the front window and stare right at me. "What the hell are you wearing?!" It was Todd. Oh great.

"Change out of that tux and change into some clubbing clothes. Sneak out of there and come with me." He so didn't understand. "I don't want to pretend to those people. If you want, I'll come inside right now and act as Mizumy. But it will be dressed like this."

"No you don't! They think Mizumy is really elegant! I'll be out there in 10 minutes." He walked away from the window and I saw his room light turn on.

"Heh heh. I'm going in anyway. He wanted them to meet me." I started walking towards the front door. "Too bad if he wanted me to hide from them. He knows it's not the real me." I opened the door and I think his mother gasped.

"Who are you?!" I was immediately surrounded by tons of guys. And they were all looking at me like they wanted me for their own.

"Oh, me? I'm M- Saya. I'm Todd's girlfriend." Todd came down the stairs and I ran to him. "Right Todd?" He looked at me like I was crazy. I'll have hell if we can leave.

"Todd?! I thought you were engaged to Mizumy!" The guys came over to us and looked some what sad that I wasn't single.

"I am. Right Mizumy?"

"Saya remember? They already know. I'm not going to pretend."

He would have hit me if people weren't around. Thank you Lord for people.

"Todd?" His mother came over to us. "I need a moment alone with you and Saya. Right this minute." We walked up stairs with an angry woman glaring at me.

"I think I'll leave. Alright?" I tried to walk back downstairs. "Call me later alright Todd?" I ended up pushing past his mother and walked back down to the party. I could hear Todd and his mother yelling at each other.

"Where do you think you're going?" Some drunk man came up to me and wouldn't let me out of the house.

"Away from here. That's all you need to know." I walked right out of the house and headed home. Ami is going to kill me. But I think I gave my number out to one person. Can't wait to see who wants a date with me later.

"Where have you been?!" I was right. Ami was mad!

"Sorry, I went and saw Todd.." I was still in my club outfit. "I came back right?"

"That's not the point! You said you were staying home!" What's her problem? I walked to my room and locked the door. Younger people are real pains. You sneak out, and they act as if you did something illegal.

My phone started to ring. I didn't feel like picking it up so they left a message. "Todd has left you a message." My phone talks. It's kinda creepy at times when it's dead silent. I went and checked my messages.

"Saya, I'm sorry my mother acted like that. She just wanted what was best for her only son. She's afraid I'll die like James and not have a child." Oh, that's his excuse? Fine, he can think that. I like him. Damn, I've finally thought about it. I'll do anything to make it up to him.

I called him back as soon as I could. "Todd, I'm sorry. I just don't like pretending to be something I'm not." He didn't say anything. "You came so fast, I didn't know what to do. I'm sorry."

"i know.. But I've been thinking about you for a few years. And I thought you would have as well." I was really speechless. I have been thinking about him. but I'm sacred.

I could only hang up the phone after I whispered "Bye, Todd. I'll call you later.. I love you." I didn't even give him a chance to say anything. "AMI! Get in here!" I started to freak out.

"What is it Saya? You know, I have to finish this application by tomorrow!" I threw her on by bed and had a spasm. "What the hell is wrong with you?"

"I said something I shouldn't have! I told Todd I loved him! And I just hung up with him and he didn't get to say anything to me! I don't know what to do! I can't love him! I told myself I would NEVER date him for Aki and James's sake! I can't break my last promise to her!" I really promised her that 10 years ago. I've never lied to her in my LIFE! "AMI!! He's gonna call back and I'm going to flip out!"

"Todd has left you a text message" Damn that phone! Wait, he what?! I dove to my phone and opened it up. "I love you too Saya."

"Saya? What'd he say?" She walked over to me and looked over my shoulder. "Oh my god! That's so sweet!" She looked at me after I dropped my phone onto the ground and it hit with a crash sound. "Hello? You there?" She waved her hand in front of my face trying to get me to focus.

"No, Ami, I'm not. I can't love him. No matter how much I want to." I dropped to my knees and started crying. "Ami, this really hurts! I love him. I think I now know how Aki felt about James."

Someone knocked at the door and Ami went to go get it. I didn't hear anyone walking or talking. But the next thing I knew, Todd was holding me in his arms comforting me. "Saya, it's alright. Ami told me. And, well... I made the same promise to James. But, they're gone, and you know they'd want us to be happy. And they made us promise that because they were getting married."

"I know.. But I've never ever broken a promise to her. And, if I break one now.. I don't know what I'd do. I love her. She's all I ever had in this world." I broke down crying again and he just held me 'till I stopped.

When I finished crying, he kissed me. I guess he was trying to make me feel better, but it didn't really work. I was sadder than ever. "I have to go now. I'm sorry. I need to tell my mother about something very important to me. And it has to do with you."

Later that week, I got some messages from people I didn't know. I guessed they were from that party. But it wasn't guys who left the, for me. They were girls. They wanted to hang out with "Sexy Saya" not the normal me. I'll have to ask Todd who they are. Ami has a boyfriend now. And he treats her wonderfully. And he gets my approval. I still don't know what he does for a job though. He won't tell us. But he comes on to me a lot when Ami isn't around. She won't believe me though.

"Saya? You in there?" Damn Greg. I was in the bathroom and he was trying to get in. "Let me in already. I know you're not naked. God. Let me in!" How did he get a ke-? Ami. She's so dumb. I told her not to give him a key. He started picking the lock.

"GREG! GET AWAY FROM THE DOOR!" I was not in a happy mood. Ami went out to go get the pizza. Todd was on his way, but he called and said he'd be a little late. No one is here to save me. "I'll let you in if you promise to stay five feet away from me!" I opened the door. He just stared at me. I was wrapped in a towel from my shower. "Happy now?"

"Yes, very." He started to drool and I walked away from him and headed to my room. "Hey, Saya, can I have you do something for me?" He was starting to seem 'happy'.

"What?" I was really annoyed.

"Let me take a picture with out the towel. Please? You know I'm a photographer." He was right. I did know he was a photographer. But I didn't know what KIND.

"No! Take one of your girlfriend!" He shook his head like he was playing.

"What one? I have five girlfriends." WHAT?! He's a player?! And he told Ami she was his only. "Come on. I know you don't have anyone in your life. Let me fix that. I can get you a date easily with your body.

"Get the hell away from me!" I ran to my room and slammed my door. "Get out of the house now, Greg! I don't want you to come any closer!"

My window was wide open and Todd heard me yelling. Luckily I lived on the first floor in the back. He climbed into my room and stared at me with awe. "Uh, Saya? Why are you against the door with nothing on?" I looked down. Shit, my towel came off. He looked me up and down and handed me my robe.

"Thank you. And I'm at the wall because Greg is trying to get a picture of me with nothing on! And he wants me to be his little whore!"

That made him mad. "Where is he right now?" I moved my head to show him he was on the other side of the door. "Move, I'll show him something he won't forget. I moved out of his way and unlocked the door.

"Greg.. Come in here. I want to show you something special." He ran into my room as fast as he could. As he ran through the door frame, Todd punched him right in the face. He had that same face as the day he almost raped me.

When Ami came home, I was dressed and Greg was lying in the couch with a bloody nose. "What happened?!" She was immediately at his side cleaning up his face. "What happened to him?!" I had to pull her away from him and have her look me in the eye.

"I know you won't believe me, but he was playing you, baby. He told me to my face. He wanted to take nude pictures of me. And he was planning on doing much more if Todd hadn't shown up to save me." She looked like I was speaking a different language. "Honey, he was cheating on you. And he wanted me to keep it a secret from him."

"No! You're wrong! He said he loved me! He said I was his only!" She broke down into a crying mess. "I love him! And he loves me!"

"I'm sorry Ami... But He doesn't. Even ask Todd." Todd nodded silently. "Ami, I'm so sorry. But, he's not worth it."

"Screw you! I know he would NEVER do that!" Some how he woke up with her screaming. He pulled her down on top of him.

"Ami.. I love you." Freak! Trying to kiss up to her.

She took my word. She hit him right in the gut. "Loser! Get away from me! I knew about it!" She was crying again, but she was full of... rage?

"Todd... How do we stop her?! I've never seen her like this!" Todd stepped in and pulled her away. Taking many hits to the facial area. Ouch.

When she calmed down, she fell asleep. I couldn't really blame her though. With all the screams, tears, and hits she made. She was exhausted. Me and Todd were too. Luckily Greg was 'kicked' out of the house.

"He was an asshole!" Ami was screaming and killing him in her sleep.

All I could do for her was hold her and comfort her. I felt like a mother. For about 3 hours, I was just holding her, keeping her from killing herself.

"Ami-chan.. Please calm down. Come on.. We'll go out or something." I had no idea she was this in love with him. "Come on.. Please?"

She had a little cough and sat up, rubbing her eyes. "S-Sure Saya. But... It's only going to be us... right?" She looked at me with eyes that made me, well, depressed.

"Sure. Why not?" I let her sleep for a little longer as I called Todd. I had to tell him not to go.

When I told him, he sounded disappointed. But he knew why I would have to do that to him. He knew me so well. Scary...

"Okaa-san?" Ami sounded like a little girl. "Okaa-san? Where are you? Come on. We're going to be late." SHe walked around the house. Was she mentally stable?

"Ami.. Where are you? Come here." I had to get her to think I was her mom. "Ami-chan. I right here." I walked into the kitchen JUST in time to see her holding a knife. "AMI! PUT THAT DOWN!" I rushed to her and grabbed the knife.

"Okaa-san.. Please... I don't want to be here." She looked perfectly calm. She's not mentally stable! No wonder Aki could never leave the dorm at night... Or when Ami was lonely. So much sense. "Mommy.. I love you. But I'm the reason daddy doesn't love you anymore. You even said so yourself."

"No no no.. Ami... Baby.. Don't worry. I love you. Daddy's just... Stressed out. That's why he went on that vacation?" This so proves how much I knew of my Ami-kins. "I love you so much. Please don't do this to me." I finally got the knife from her.

She collapsed on the floor in my lap. Todd needs another call.

I called him from my cell phone. Amazing how I forgot about it earlier. "Todd. Um.. Can you come over? Ami needs to go... To the hospital?" I said that and I knew he was already halfway to our house.

When he walked- no ran- in, he was out of breath. I'm taking he didn't take the car? "What's wrong with her?!" He was... Hysterical?

"She called me mom many times and almost killed herself! She's fucking CRAZY!" He took her in his arms and immediately started kissing her head all over. Almost like a father. Hell. If I didn't know better, I'd think he was her father.

"Ami.. Wake up.. Daddy's home now. I sorry I left." He was reluctant and I knew it. "Mommy and daddy need to talk. Will you watch T.V?" She nodded and we walked to my room.
"What's wrong with her? And how do you know what do do?" I want answers dammit!

"I've known Ami pretty long. So it's just a reflex... I mean. What would you do if Aki had an anxiety attack? That's what's happening to Ami."

"Oh! I didn't know that. That makes more sense then what I was thinking..." All I could do was pretend to understand. "Do you think it's safe? I mean.. I'm not always home at night. And there isn't anyone here to watch her."

He looked petrified. "I know.. And when you aren't home, you're with me. So I can't come over and take care of her. I mean, Aki was the one who told me. Well, she and James were her "parents" until they..."

He was cut off my Ami walking. No, running towards the kitchen. With no thought at all we were both flying towards her.

"Okaa-san? Otou-san? Where are you? You said you wouldn't leave!" With that, she started to cry.

"Shit!" As I was holding her, someone was at the door. "I'll get it. Saya, don't you dare leave her side.

"Hello? Ami? Is she here?" I know that voice. Sakura. No duh. Dumb ass bitch! How did she know where I lived?

"Todd... Who's at the door? Ami needs you... She's crying for you again." I heard him start walking towards my room. With someone behind him. NO! NO NO NO NOT SAKURA!

When I saw her, my heart sank. She was clinging onto Todd like there was no tomorrow. For her, that was right!

"Hi Saya..." Sakura... Acting innocent? What has the world come to?! "Itachi called me on his way over here... He said he needed help with something to do with Ami."

Like I was going to talk to this bitch! She hated me. I hated her. And we both loved Itachi.

"Really?" I gave an icy grin towards Itachi. He'll have to talk later. "Thanks, but I think we have it under control." Why can't she leave?! Ami stirred when she heard Sakura's voice.

"Saku-chan! I missed you! Where have you been?!" Ami was acting like a little girl again. How was the girl not in a mental institution?

Todd took me away from both of them. "I need to talk to you." This isn't good. He never 'needs to talk' with me. "Um.. Saya, I wanted to ask you something later. Can I take you out on a date tonight?" Huh? Is he trying to make up for the Sakura thing? "That's the reason I brought Sakura over." Hey, I was somewhat right...

"Sure. I'll go. But... Do I need to like, dress up? Cause if I do, I can almost gaurentee I'll wear my clubbing clothes." He winced. I think he remembers.

He nodded to me. "Okay. How about... 7 o'clock? And I don't care what you wear... As long as it's more than a towel." He laughed when he said that.

When I was waiting downstairs, Sakura and Ami went out to go somewhere. So here I was. A nicely dressed person waiting in a crappy lobby for a rich man.

(Momo-chan:Can anyone say weird?)

He walked into the lobby. Wow... So I guess I wore something good after all. Yay me! "Saya? Oh my! Wow!" Didn't see this coming. I thought for sure you'd wear your clubbing outfit again."

Again? Oh no! NO NO NO NO!! "Am I going to your parents house again?" He looked down and nodded. "Shit!"

"Sorry... They said they wanted to meet you." He felt guilty... He should! I hated that place.

We went.. And it was a huge party. Why me?

(Momo-chan: Seems like a LOT of parties)

"Todd!" Some elegant looking lady ran to us as soon as we opened the door. "I didn't think you'd bring her." She looked somewhat disappointed at me.

He looked so fake giving her that smile! Did she realize it? I don't know.. Their faces are hard to read..

"Todd... Um.. I'll go over there. Come find me later OK?" I shakily walked away because I didn't know what could happen.

And I was glad I left.. Hinata and Tenten were here. Yay.

(Momo-chan: I don't know how to say this but... She hates almost everyone.)

If they even try to pull any shit I'm leaving. And so... 10 minutes into the party I want to leave. They keep saying shit about Todd. When I was about to open the door, someone grabbed my wrist.

"Excuse me. Don't touch me." I whirled around to smack the person.

He was drunk! Not Todd... But his best friend. Sasuke. SHIT! He's a bad drunk!

"Hey baby... Where are you going?" Surprisingly his voice wasn't slurred. "Stay here and have a drink with me.." Was he trying to act... CUTE?!

Tenten came by and took him away. Although, I don't think he wanted to leave. "Tenten! Bring him back here!" Damn! I don't want to chase after him... But he was my last boyfriend. I knew him the best.

"Huh? Saya?" His speak was slipping. Damn... I hate being me. "Hey, SLUT!" Referring to Tenten I hope.. If not, he's dead. "Let me go!" Oh?

She released him and he ran towards me. "Saya? What? What are you doing here?" He really is drunk. Although he seemed sober enough,

"I don't know.. I came here with Todd." That earned a look of sadness from him. "So I don't really know what I'm doing here."

Sasuke looked depressed. And drunk. Not a good combination. "Why are you marrying him?" WHAT?! I was NOT engaged to anyone! I don't think...

I looked at my hand to make sure I wasn't wearing a ring. I wasn't. That made him happy too. "I'm not engaged. Didn't I tell you? I will never marry."

He nodded and hugged me. "Where's Naruto? I kind of miss him." Sasuke? Missing someone? WOW! "Saya... I love you."

Either he's drunk or he's dead serious. "Um.. Sasuke?"

He immediately kissed me and as he crashed into my lips, Todd came over to find
me. When I saw him I tried to push Sasuke away. But, I didn't really want too. I liked the feeling of his kisses.

"Saya? SASUKE?!" Oh shit.. He's PISSED at Sasuke.Oh shit..

We were still kissing. I think my face showed how much I enjoyed it. Oh no! I didn't want to hurt him!

When we pulled away, Sasuke was being pulled away from me by Todd. SHIT!

"Todd! No! Don't hurt him. It was my fault."

They both stared at me like I was crazy. Especially Sasuke.

Todd released Sasuke and walked away from me. I went to go after him, but Sasuke stopped me.

Something was at my feet. A small white box? Oh God.. He was...

"SASUKE! He was going to propose! OMG!"

I fainted. I don't know what happened after that.. But when I woke up, I was in my apartment.

Every thing's normal? How? I just broke my BEST friend's heart. I think I'm back with my ex. Life's to damn confusing!
