Some People Just Can't Take a Hint

I walk into the office after my lunch with Ino. I know I am walking into my doom.. I take a deep breath and look up. Itachi is sitting there working on paper work.

I clear my throat and slowly his head rises. Black meet emerald.

"sakura" he whispers as though he couldn't see me

He narrows his eyes at me before glancing at Ino. "Could you please leave us for a moment?"

Ino took a quick look at me, nodded and high-tailed it back out the door for a minute. I hoped he didn't have enough time to kill me before Ino came back.

"Uh…. Hi???" I say slowly wondering if I should bolt or not.

"Well, what's your excuse?" His voice rumbled deeply; I slightly flinched back...he was angry...I could tell and he wasn't going to get anymore happier.

"Well, I did some soul searching and I came up with something that I can live with easier." I said sadly

He stood up, his chair banged into the wall.. He was in front of me before I could bat an eyelash. He glared at me with his black eyes. I stood my ground. Finally, he growled

"What do you mean 'soul searching'?

I sighed. "I mean that I have figured out that I do not have to be yours anymore than you have to be mine. I am done Itachi. I am done with you. With your job. With me being the slut. I. AM. DONE." I glared at him

He looked taken back. Then he composed himself.

"Why you ungrateful little-" he said right as Ino walked back in.

"Shut up Itachi. You heard her. Now why don't you and your potty mouth shut up and let me talk. Sakura is someone who usually doesn't take shit from no one. She did when she was younger, but not anymore. Too many people used her. Now she was being used by you and she doesn't like it."

I gave he a grateful glance.

"Itachi I am done with your games. I. QUIT. That is final. I would like to never see you cheating face again. Yes, I do know that you took other women to bed besides me and I didn't like it. Now, I don't care. You can bed who ever you please, may it be Ten-ten. 'T. CARE. ANYMORE. Have fun being a cold hearted dick."

I turned and left and Ino followed suite.

I felt his eyes boring holes into my back. He was beyond mad. Beyond pissed for that matter and this Uchiha's anger is centered on me.

Ami I the dumbest person on Earth? Yes, I think I am… along with Ino. Yet, I will be to blame for her disobedience. I just hope HE wont find me in this little town I call home… I don't want to be around HIM. I want to forget him, but the thing is I cant. His blue eyes I can get lost in, his red hair that I want to touch, for that matter its like He is burned into my memory. I force him to the back of my mind, but he always finds a way to the surface. I sigh and make a resolution to stop thinking about him. Once I made it I knew it would never happen. Kusa. I hate him.

"What's wrong, Sakura?" Ino asks directly to the point as usual.

I sigh trying to blow it off but she gives me the no-you-can't-blow-this-off-if-you-don't-tell-me-I-will-make-you-tell-me-by-means-of-tourture look. I sigh again

"Get on with it. It must be big if you are trying to avoid it so much." she said smugly.

"You won't believe me" I muttered

She laughed, "Try me, Sakura, Nothing concerning you surprises me anymore"

We walk up to my door and I slowly unlock it and step inside along with Ino, my best friend since kindergarten.

I was scared to tell her, I really was. It was like a forbidden secret I must keep. I knew I had to tell her though. I had to get it off my chest. I knew she was the biggest gossip around, but she doesn't gossip with what I tell her because if she did she would be in a padded room. I know that sounds kind of weird, but to tell the truth this isn't my first time dealing with non-humans. Its my first time dealing with vampires. So you might wonder what other paranormal creatures I have dealt with. Well, it was a werewolf, and let me tell you those things are only mean to the ones they want to be mean too. They do have control over their minds. They are not raging beasts, but a wonderful species. They are absolutely truly free when they are wolves, but us. We are never truly free. We are bound by the laws of society and democracy. I would absolutely love to be running through the forest, mossy scents filling my nose wet ground under my paws. I would love to be free, but alas we never can be. The closest time we humans come to being free is in our dreams and minds. Yet even then when we wake we are squished by the society's rules and regulations.

I felt a constant prodding in my side. It threw my from my thoughts and allowed me to land hard in reality. She was waiting for an answer and she wasn't going to drop it.

A sighed and spoke one word. "Vampire"

With this word all the color drained from Ino's face in about 2 seconds. The silence was deafening.

She gave me a look that said you-are-a-really-stupid-person-and-why-does-this-thing-happen-to-you-and-I-get-dragged-into-it. She knew what I was had got myself into, Just great. Now that she knew she would be endangered.

Why did I tell her? Oh, yeah I know. She kept pestering me.
