Chapter 4
(A.N: Isn't this a treat? Two updates! Wow! I must really love you guys! Or have nothing better to do with my life...Anyways, I must apologize now for the end of the last chapter I posted...I didn't make mistakes on purpose, it was actually my stupid keyboard. This thing fails too often, and yeah. I'm sorry. -Kicks her laptop- So yeah, hopefully anyone who reads it, doesn't get too upset about the ending there. It was my laptop failing again, I apologize! And please keep in mind that the spacing is likely messed up, being as I'm using a very crappy program! Sorry again. Now, lets continue with our story...P.S: OOC-ness...APOLOGIES!!)
Naurto was waiting anxiously for his food. Eggs, and toast, and bacon, and sausage, and hashbrowns...The mere idea of what he was going to have in a matter of minutes made him smile. Honestly smile.
"Alright you two...I'm going to the washroom, I'll be back in a few," Sakura said to the two of them, before she walked off to the girls washroom.
Alone. The two of them were alone.
Naruto continued staring up at the big signs that lined the wall, telling them the breakfast menu. He pretended to read it, but was really just looking for a distraction until Sakura came back.
He didn't want to look his way.
"I'm sorry," a quiet and broken voice whispered. And then he was gone.
Naruto turned in time to see him head into the males washroom. He stood there, waiting for Sakura to come back. He was stuck waiting for the food, which didn't sound as good as it had a few minutes ago. He was speechless. Sasuke had apologized to him...But, it wasn't that, that got him. His voice had sounded so...
"Naruto, I'm back!" Sakura announced from beside him,
"Are you okay?"
"I...I'm going to the washroom, I'll be back in a minute..." He didn't give her a chance to reply. He just took off to the washroom, and slipped in, trying to seem casual about it, in case anyone else was in there. Five urinals lined the right side of the room, and three bathroom stalls lined the left side of the room. Two of which had the doors wide open. Sighing, he went up to the locked stall.
"Sasuke. Come out."
"..."
"Look, I know it's you in there. Come out."
"..."
"Sasuke?"
The door unlocked, and swung open. The male stepped out, and walked to the sinks, not saying a word. He began washing his hands.
"Sasuke? Why are you ignoring me?"
"...I'm listening. I'm out, aren't I? If you have something to say, then say it," he wasn't being mean. He was using a quiet and broken tone.
"Sasuke...I...Uhm, I wanted to tell you that I'm done with being upset...I was angry...But only because..."
"Because I treated you with a split personality," Sasuke finished. The water stopped running, and Sasuke dried his hands on some paper towels.
"I know that. I got sick after our little phone conversation."
Narutos mind flashed back to earlier...
--
"I don't know," Sasuke replied, looking back to Sakura,
"I wasn't feeling well."
--
"You got sick after I said all that?"
"Yeah."
"Sasuke..."
"Come on, lets go. Sakura is probably wondering what's taking us so long." Sasuke opened the bathroom door, and the two walked out. Naruto felt like he had so much to say, yet he couldn't bring himself to say anything.
--
The day seemed to be long, and endless. But they managed to get all their errands done together. Which meant...
"We're going to the fair! FINALLY!" Naruto announced happily. He smiled an honest smile, and looked at his two friends,
"What rides are we going on?"
"I don't know yet Naruto...We're not even in yet. And, Ino and Hinata are going to meet up with us too...So, if I run off on you two, try not to fight, okay?"
"Sure thing! Sasuke's my friend, we won't fight!" And Narutos smile stayed.
Once all three of them had payed to get into the fair, they got the night stamp. Free rides, all night. Much better then wasting your money on tickets.
"Sakura-chan! Sasuke-kun! Naruto-kun!" Two female voices called out. Ino jumped forewards, hugging both Sasuke and Sakura at once, one arm swinging around each neck. She only hoped Sakura didn't get too mad about her hugging Sasuke. Being as, she had no reason to anymore. Which of course, she would soon find out. Hinata kept to be being quiet after they reached the trio.
"Hi Naruto-kun," she said in her usual quiet tone.
"Hi Hinata-chan, how are you?"
"I'm fine...Thank you..."
"Ino-chan! Get off already!" Sakura announced, pushing her back a bit.
Ino just laughed, and took hold of the male from behind her. Taking him by the arm, she led him forewards to stand beside her. He was dazzling. Black hair, and sparkling green eyes.
"Sakura-chan, meet my boyfriend, Tanno-kun."
"B-Boyfriend?! So...You mean you...Give up?"
Ino nodded,
"It's such a pointless battle! And besides...Tanno-kun and I met a couple months ago...And within two weeks of hanging out, we were together. We get along great! We share interests, and hobbies, and we always have a good laugh! And..." She brought her voice to a whisper,
"If you're interested...He has a brother."
"Ehh?! Ino-chan! You know I--!"
"I know! I know! But, you should at least...You know...Meet?"
"Ehh?!"
Ino grabbed Sakura by the arm,
"Hinata-chan! Lets go! Take Sakuras other arm, we are off on our way! Sasuke and Naruto...Try not to kill each other!"
Hinata obeyed, and took Sakuras other arm, and the four left. Two of the four half-dragging Sakura along. Half meaning that Hinata just kept walking, and stopped when Sakura stopped, while Ino just dragged her along.
Naruto and Sasuke stood stunned.
Alone. They were alone.
"So...What ride should we go on first?" Naruto questioned, looking to Sasuke. Sasuke was worried about it, but he had to do it. He looked over to Naruto. Prepared for the worst.
Naruto was smiling.
Honestly, smiling.
( A.N: Okay. I think I'm done for this chapter...Until I can think up more :) And yes, I realise I said, "honestly smiling" a lot! I'm sorry XD But, I needed to emphasize his real smile, compared to his fake one he "plasters" onto his face whenever he and Sasuke are fighting, and are with Sakura. I didn't want to have the whole Sasuke-fight-with-Sakura-and-Ino-drama, so Ino has a boyfriend. Ooh, I think I know part of what will be in my next chapter...Maybe some confusion for Sakura? She's meeting the brother and all...Hmm...-writes idea down for later- Bwahahaha!! More cliffhangers for yooouuuu! -smiles all evilly- But, you love me! So, you shall review! Yes? YES! MAKE SPECIAL MESSAGES! AND! If you have any ideas you want me to possibly, maybe, if I super-love-you-lots-and-stuff, uhm, tell me, and I shall give you major credits if I do decide to use it. Unless of course it's the plot I already have...Which you'll know if it is...Because you won't see credits to you...So, I'm going to shut-up now...And stop rambling...And you're going to review...I am your master...Look at NaruSasu-ness...AND REVIEW! )
