SASUKE'S POV

If only she knew. If only she knew I liked her, things would be easier. I find it hard to talk to her and be my true self around her. I don't want to appear as an emo kid who ignores everyone. She above anyone knows that I just want to be left alone. It's 4:30 in the morning, I started to make my way to the training field. It's just outside the gates, about a 10minute walk. I walked out of my house and started walking towards to gate when I saw her.

"Hey Misane"

MISANE'S POV

"Hey Misane" I heard someone. I turned around still looking at the book I was reading to find. I look up to see Sasuke right in front of me.

"Hi, how are you?" I asked smiling and putting me book back in my pouch.

"I'm good. Want to walk together?"

I'm surprised, this isn't the Sasuke I see when we are in the group.

"Sure,"

We walked towards the training field together. We talked on the way. What surprised me the most was when Sasuke started to ask questions about my relationship with Neji.

"What do you mean? How are Neji and I going along?" I was confused.

He raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, you think we are going out, no we are just good friends."

"Oh sorry, I though, never mind that" we both start laughing

"Hey that means your available right?"

"Yes I guess it does" I smirked

"Just don't tell Naruto that he will ask you out." He whispered

"I thought he likes Sakura?"

"He does, he likes you too," He looked at me

"We should pretend we are going out so Sakura can get off my back and might see Naruto actually likes her" he continued. I thought it was a good idea so I grabbed his hand and leaned my head on his shoulder.

"What are you...oh wait good plan"

We walked into the training field to notice that Sakura and Naruto standing there, Sakura with flames for eyes and Naruto frowning at Sasuke. I looked up at Sasuke to see him giving a smirk to both of them. He leant towards my ear and whispered

"Thank you Misane" He faced me with eyes that made me weak in the knees.

I kissed his cheek.

He looked at me, blushing, and smiled, not to long after he put on his cold face again and looked at the others.

By 9 o clock, we were all half asleep.

"Hi guys, sorry I'm late, a black cat cross my path so I had to take the long way around"

I rolled my eyes. He started explaining the task at hand. We have to get a bell. Way to go Oto-San he knows that I get that darn bell every time.

" oh I forgot, Misane you will be wearing your headband like mine" he pointed to his, covering one eye.

"Just to make things difficult" he gave me a closed smile. I returned a mocking smile then rolled my eyes, he just giggled quietly.

"Ok Start!" I rushed into the nearest bush. All of us were hiding expect Naruto, who failed at an head attack. Oto-San, or should I say Kakashi Sensi, was reading his Make out Paradise while Naruto was going full out on him and Kakashi Sensi doesn't even lift his eye from his book. I deiceded to step in Naruto was caught in a trap Kakashi Sensi set out. When I stood, someone grabbed my wrist.

"Sasuke, what are you doing?"

"Leave this to me" he pulled me in close to his face and kiss the tip of my nose.

"We need to work as a team." I said

"I can do it"

With that he ran off. I took this opportunity to see what Kakashi's plan is, it feels weird calling him that, but he told me I must as the enemy will use him or me to gain advantage over the team.

Sakura was nearby and she appeared to e caught in a gen-jutsu,

"Release" I whispered.

"What? Where's Sasuke?"

"He is fine, he is fighting Kakashi, come with me"

She followed me until I said

"You see that book? In his pouch?"

"Yes I do. What do you want me to do?"

"I'll go head on while you sneak up and grab the book."

"Ok got it"

"But only go when I throw a kunai in your direction."

"Ok"

I headed towards Kakashi.

"It's about time Misane, I was waiting" I look around to see Sasuke pulled into the ground.

"Then what are you waiting for" I said confidently

Then he rushed over behind me and held a kunai at my neck.

"Don't think you'll pass this sweetie, I'm going full out on you"

"We'll you might want to use your," I hushed into a whisper so no one heard

"Sharingan to beat me, cause your not doing so well now." Then poof, I used a clone to distract Kakashi and I used a jutsu called shadow possession.

"Nice one Misane but what now?"

"Hurry Sakura!"

She was beside me.

"Look what we got!" I said childish.

She held the book higher than her head.

"How did you? Give it back"

"Give us the bells!" I yelled

He thought about it.

"Hurry you don't want me to put it in the water.

"Fine" I released my Justu and gave him the book back. He passed two of the three bells over. Now one left for either Naruto or Sasuke.

"You guys may sit down" then the bell rang.

I helped Sasuke get out of the ground.

"Congratulation, you did it. I should of listened to you."

"That's ok, thanks"

"Sasuke, Naruto after carful consideration, I'll give you another chance tomorrow. Here you go guys, lunch on me"

"Hey where's mine?" Naruto asked, tied tithe wooden pole in the middle of the field.

"You didn't do anything, you disobeyed my orders and you were going to eat lunch."

Serves him right I guess but still, he is Naruto for heavens sake.

"You guys eat up but you are not allowed to give him anything"

Kakashi walked away.

I sat down next to Sasuke and Sakura was in the other side of Naruto.

"I can go without food for days, believe it!" Naruto explained, then his stomach growled like an angry dog. Sasuke looked at him.

"Here, eat some of mine"

"No Sasuke, you eat he can eat mine" Sakura said

"No Sakura, you are skinny enough as it is, here Naruto" I held out my chopsticks and gave Naruto some rice.

Then the sky went black, what did I just do.

"YOU!" Kakashi yelled in my face. It scared me a bit

"You disobeyed me!" Sasuke intervened and started to explain why.

" the 4 of us are one. We have to work together to become the best."

Kakashi let out an evil laugh. Now I see.

"That's the most stupidest thing I've ever heard. You.." I looked at Sasuke who closed his eyes waiting for the fail to come out.

"Pass!" He opened his eyes.

Everyone looked relieved by it. Me on the other, I was running out of energy, the shadow possession jutsu takes a lot of chakra.

I stayed back with Sasuke to train my ninja hound, Emme. I was fading fast but I stayed strong. Then I collapsed. Luckily Sasuke caught me.

"Hey you ok?" He asked with a worried face.

"Yea I'm fine. Lets go home"

"Ok" Sasuke said with a smile on his face

I tried standing without Sasuke's help but I fell again. Sasuke lifted me up and put my arm around his shoulder and started to help me walk. Before I knew it he picked me up and carried me. I slowly began slowly slipping into a peaceful sleep in his arms.

SASUKE'S POV

Isn't she beautiful. She feel asleep in my arms a few minutes ago. I got to the gates carrying her to my house. I'm taking her there as it closer, then I would contact Kakashi to tell him where she is. As I walked towards my place, I received stares from everyone around me. I decided to jump to the roof. I've never liked people staring at me. I don't like people stopping their conversations because I enter the room, it makes me feel unwanted. Well what do I expect, I'm the Uchiha Boy.

I finally reach my place to find I left my window open. Well that's lucky, I crawled in and then placed Misame on my bed. I lay next to her looking at her face. She looked peaceful, angel like. Her white hair framed her face perfectly, but its a shame she wears that mask all the time. I smile as I try to picture what she looks like under it. Misane started to move. She shifted her weight, moving closer to me. Soon enough she nestled on my chest. Her moving and shifting started making her mask fall down. I was hoping that it fell down all the way. She started to mumble something. I listen, quietly.

"No no" she breathed.

I removed some hair away from her face.

"Shh it's ok." Her eyes opened but her left eye was different, it was red.

"Sasuke, I had the worst dream" she hugged me as if it was our last, but I was more focused on the red eye. It was the sharingan.
