Chapter 4

Sorry it's taken me so long. My computer broke a while ago and then my stupid school crap got in the way. Damn you psychology and other classes . I should be doing my psychology project but I decided I liked you guys better. Think of this as an early Christmas gift I guess.

(Pruu's POV)

You woke up with an irritating headache. The sun was nowhere to be seen and something wretched in your gut. Why do I feel so pissed? There's something I'm not remembering…. You froze when the dark haired Uchiha crossed your mind. Damn. Sighing in defeat, you decided to get dressed. You pulled on a blue hoodie with black sleeves and hood and slipped into a pair of powder blue skinny jeans. Who cares if it wasn't ninja appropriate? Naruto wore orange for goodness sake. You walked into your bathroom and started brushing your teeth. Why do I feel I'm still forgetting something? You looked at yourself in the mirror for a moment and slapped your forehead. Shirt and undershirt!

How in the hell could you forget your shirt? You pulled the hoodie off and slipped on your black and white long sleeved shirt and then a sky blue t-shirt with a black and white frownie face on it. (a/n: C'mon people, they have smiley faces, why not frownie faces?) Pulling on your hoodie again, you walked into the bathroom and put on a little eye liner. With a sigh, you looked at your hair in the mirror. It was getting longer… it was up to your chin… So ugly…

You put your cap on your head, making sure to cover your cat ears. Blue, just like your hair. Your tail naturally hit itself around our waist. You turned the bathroom light off and left the room. You had a deal with Sasuke Uchiha… Fuuuun.

Leaving your apartment, you gave an content sigh at the sunless sky. Darkness always suited you better. You walked nonchalantly to the KIA monument area and looked around. You saw no one, but felt someone. "C'mon out," you said in a cold, demanding tone. "We are obviously both civilized people, sneaking around does not become us." Your eyes narrowed when a shadow appeared and Sasuke walked out towards you.

"Now that's not the way to talk to your boyfriend," he said. He gave your face a better look when a shocked expression lit your face up for a fraction of a second. "What? You knew I was here."

Shaking your composure back to the surface, you crossed your arms over your chest. "Whatever." You turned away from him to hide your concentrated expression. He wasn't the one you sensed, you were sure of it. Then who was it? You closed your eyes in concentration but you couldn't feel the chakra source anymore. Maybe it was just your imagination…Maybe.

Sasuke walked over to you mockingly. "What's the matter?" You glared at him. "None of your business." He was a couple inches taller than you and it pissed you off. Everything about him pissed you off. His face, his body, his attitude, especially his attitude.

"Listen," he said, suddenly serious. "We made a deal and when the others show up, you'll hold up your end. You can say and do whatever the hell you want otherwise, got it?"

You avoided looking at him. He wouldn't see your inner turmoil. Never. "Whatever." You walked away from him so you could have space. "Just leave me alone when you don't require my services." Since obviously I'm just being used in this. Why did you even agree? The fans wouldn't even be that bad. Would they? Uncertain, you walked over to a tree and jumped into it. How could he be able to draw any emotion from you? It wasn't fair. You had spent years perfecting the act of coldness. There had to be a way for him to leave you be and stop mocking you. There had to be.

He pulled you from your thoughts when he walked over to you. "Sakura's coming." He calmly jumped into the tree with you. You just decided you didn't care anymore. He could do whatever. It would be better not to show him any detesting nature. It's where the sick bastard gets his kicks. He sat behind you and put his arms around you. Playing the part. He pulled you back so you were resting against his chest. As much as you hated it, you were pretty comfortable against him. You watched a weary and tired Sakura walk over and sigh. "There's no way I could be the only one here. Sasuke-kun should be here. He's always early. Where could he be?"

You rolled your eyes. Dumb fan girl. If she was even half intelligent, then she could sense you and Sasuke. Was she as hopeless as she was annoying? You subconsciously sighed and Sakura heard you. She looked over and spotted you and Sasuke.

"Sas-suke?! Wh-hat are you doing with Pruu?!" she asked before sneaking a glare at you.

You didn't seem to mind me when you thought I was a boy, bitch, you thought bitterly. You really hated girls like her.

Putting his elaborate plan into action, Sasuke looked at Sakura nonchalantly. "What does it look like?"

Sakura blushed and fidgeted, "Wha-what is Pruu do-doing with you, I mean? You two aren't to-together… You can't be… Pruu said she didn't like you… I don't understand…"

Feeling some sympathy for her, you decided to tell her so Sasuke couldn't crush her completely. "To be hon-" Sasuke interrupted you. Jerk. "We're going out. Pruu and I are going out. We've been going out. Now just leave us alone."

You felt horrible as you watched some pain on her face. Sasuke just crushed her without a thought. She couldn't do anything as she watched Sakura walk away with a sad air about her. When she was out of earshot, you turned back to Sasuke. "Did you have to be such an ass about it? You really hurt her feelings, y'know that?"

Sasuke just looked at you uncaringly. "Does it look like I care? What does it matter to you anyway?"

You glared at him and let words spill out without thinking. "Because, if I'm supposed to be your supposed girlfriend, then I think you should grow a pair and start actually understanding how your attitude impacts people!" you hissed.

Sasuke glared at you in return. "I don't care how my attitude impacts people. I don't care about people at all. And like you're any better? Acting like you're better than everyone else? Yeah, you're really hitting me with your holier than thou logic. Just shut up alright?"

You were virtually speechless. You knew he was right about you. You were like that… Emotion bubbled up inside you and you snapped back in a low hiss. "At least I can empathize you worthless, unfeeling, bastard! I hate people but I don't go lying to them and crushing them like bugs!"

"I honestly don't give a damn. And why should you even care about how I act? You're not my actual girlfriend. I'mfaking it and so are you. And as soon as those stupid girls leave me alone, we're going back to our normal lives where we hate each other. I'm going to drop you like a rock, got it?"

"You're such an asshole. I don't understand anything you do. You say you hate me, and yet you've kissed me, snuck into my house, and a whole lot of other shit. What the hell is your deal?"

Sasuke gave you yet another cold look. "Just playing the part."

You tried to get up so you could walk away, but he held you to him still, so you gave up. You knew this was going to end badly. There was no way to deny it. As much as you wanted to say it wasn't true, it was. You were going to fall for Sasuke Uchiha and he was going to crush you like he did to Sakura.

Perfect…

You sat in silence with him for a few more minutes. And when Naruto showed up, you attempted to get but, but Sasuke held you to him yet again. Typical.

"Hey, Pruu-chan!" Naruto greeted happily. He noticed Sasuke and the two shared a glare before he continued talking to you. "Sorry about yesterday again. I didn't mean to fall on you." When you nodded, he continued. "Whatcha' doing with Sasuke-teme?"

You looked to Naruto with your normal placid blue eyes. "I don't feel like answering…." More than anything, you wanted to escape from Sasuke's evil grasp. You prayed that Naruto would ask you to join him or something…But, he went off to go bug Sakura. Still in Sasuke's hold, you let her head droop forward and let your blue orbs shadow over. You pulled your cap off and pulled your hood up. You didn't sigh out of annoyance or struggle, you just sat there.

A few hours later (and I mean HOURS), Kakashi showed up and Sasuke finally let go and walked over to the silver haired jounin. He gave his usual lazy reply when Naruto and Sakura yelled at him while Sasuke merely glared at him. Pulling out three bells, Kakashi explained his test. And after Naruto tried to attack him (and failed), Kakashi officially started the exam. Everyone -but Naruto- hid in the surrounding area, waiting for their chances.

How can I sneak up on him at all? You thought. It's obvious he can beat us. How can he expect us to do anything? What in the hell can I even do? What has learning in the academy taught me for when I have to go against someone that is obviously better in skill than me?

An answer hit me like a ton of bricks. "Nothing." Damn…Screwed. So, you decided to do the only thing you could do. Nothing. You and the rest of team seven were going to fail anyway, so why waste your energy? It was a nice day and you were uninterested. "Why are you even a ninja, Pruu?" you asked yourself with a smirk. You leaned against a tree and waited.

When the buzzer went off a while later, you calmly walked over to the KIA stone and sat down. Naruto caught your eye and you looked at him with blue pools of curiosity. "What did you do, dobe?"

Naruto squirmed around. "I'M NOT A DOBE! GET ME DOWN!" He struggled against the log he was tied to more and more. No one even made a motion to help the blonde.

Kakashi lectured you about teamwork and such, but you ignored him like every other adult. It was only when he addressed you that you listened.

"And in all this, where were you, Pruu? Hm? I didn't see you the entire test."

There was only one way out of this…Lie. "I was camouflaged so well, you couldn't find me. Practicing my skills. Looks like I did good. You never found me."

Kakashi didn't seem amused. Not in the least. He told us to eat lunch but not feed Naruto. As soon as he left, Naruto's stomach growled. Your sensitive ears twitched under your hood. If it growled one more time, you'd…

Grrrooooowwwwwwllll

You put some food on your chopsticks and shoved them in his mouth. "Shut. Up." You put another chopstick full amount of food in his blushing face. Obviously he'd never been fed by a girl.

"Stop!" Sakura interjected. "Sensei said!"

"Sensei says a lot of things," you replied. "Anyway, the growling of stomachs irritates me."

Swallowing a mouthful, Naruto spoke. " Like a pet peeve?" Haha. What a clever little pun. "Yes. A pet peeve. Along with barking and annoying guys."

You knew Sasuke gave you a slight glare at that last remark.

Suddenly, Kakashi appeared. "YOU!" A dark ominous cloud was forming in the sky and you were a little relieved. Darkness falls again.

The darkness left as soon as it came and Kakashi's glare was replaced with a smile. "Pass." Relief washed over everyone. You cut Naruto loose and Kakashi sensei offered to buy ramen. The other three agreed and you just shrugged. You didn't like ramen really, but you didn't think it'd be too bad to sat with your…team. Naruto ruffled the hood on the top of your head and you let yourself smile a little. A ghost of a smile really. You pulled the hood off and straightened your hair out. You took a step forward, meaning to go with them, but something caught your attention. You could smell something. Familiar, yet unfamiliar. Like something you had forgotten.

Naruto looked back. "Eh, Pruu, you coming?" Everyone else turned as well.

Better not to alarm them. You put your wall up again. "No. I'll see you tomorrow, I guess. I don't like ramen. You go on." You watched them walk away as you sat calmly on the KIA monument, but you caught the all knowing glance Kakashi sent you. He wasn't elite for nothing. Once they left, you sniffed the air casually to catch the scent again. It couldn't have been an animal or a plant. It didn't smell like it. It was earthy… but robust. It had a humanistic, metallic smell to it. Obviously another shinobi, but none you could recognize. It was familiar though. Very familiar. It smelled like need and something you couldn't comprehend…. You were starting to wonder if you should check it out or leave….But your instincts got the better of you and you started to briskly leave. Curiosity killed the cat. And I'm not willing to die today. Not after my first fight with my…fake boyfriend, I'm not.

(Mystery Person's POV [le gasp oAo])

You watched her walk away and you smirked at her better judgment. After all, curiosity killed the cat. You knew she sensed you earlier in the morning and you knew she could smell you just a moment ago. It was a koi game of cat and mouse- her being the mouse, of course. You let your smirk grow as the turned to leave your area of camouflage. Pruu had secrets she didn't even know about, and you were going to let her know. You knew that she had questions. And you had answers.

When the timing's right, my sweet little neko, I'll answer all your little questions. And then, you'll be mine. After all, foolish little Sasuke

doesn't know what you're capable of. Even if he did, there's no way he can have what's not his. You smirked slightly more before your dark eyes narrowed. Sasuke treated her coldly. You weren't exactly Prince Charming, but you didn't need to be. Pruu was yours. With a smirk of triumph, you completed a few hand signs and disappeared from Konoha.

OOOOH, exciting, right? Who do YOU think it is? o.O First person to answer right gets a link to see a picture of Pruu!!!! *the way I drew her is kinda girly but it's Pruu* (btw you gotta remind me when you comment otherwise I'll forget ^.^U)

And, if enough people comment, I'll be very happy ^^
