"I still think some thing is wrong, Shika." Ino turned on her side to face the said boy. Sasuke had arranged a sleep over for everyone at his house and like those before tonight, couples slept in their own private rooms.
"Ino, leave it babe. Sasuke should know whether it's his girl or not. I would." Shika mumbled the last bit under his breath and put his head under the pillow.
"She- Shika that girl is not Sakura. And I have a plan to prove it." Ino sat up and took out a pen and paper. Shika lifted his head and looked up at her.
"Does it involve the Akatsuki?" He raised an eyebrow.
"No, we need a party. Everyone must be there. Then, we tick these things off:
1. Who she hangs out with at this gathering. Is it us or other people she don't normally hang with.
2. How she speaks to me. I'm going to be extremely hands on.
3. How she dresses. Sakura's dress style isn't exactly royalty.
4. What she eats and drinks. Sakura hates too much sweet things.
and lastly, 5. How will she handle a situation of conflict between me and Tenten. Sakura hates it almost as much as she hates too mush sweet things." Ino in formed Shika.
"Great. Can we sleep now?" Shika mumbled.
"You can. I have a bulletproof plan to think up." Ino started getting her thoughts together.
"Itachi."
"Hello Karen." His voice deep. Itachi could make out her figure and her face features in the dim light. His sharp mind told him that some things was wrong. His eyes drifted to the bag.
"What are you doing her?" Karen asked quietly. She hoped Itachi didn't hear that she was nervous.
"I was walking from the shed to the house. I saw the light and thought I'd check it out." His eyes gazed the guys face. He also looked at her partner. "By the way. Aren't you suppose to be far away from here?"
"Yes," Karen acted disappointed and looked at the floor. Hoping he bought her act. "But your brother and I spoke about it and he did say that he accepted my apology. I also asked him if I could lend this old mine shaft. He warned me but said he had no problems with me using it either."
Itachi raised an eyebrow. Sasuke was stubborn. He wouldn't let Karen off the hook that easily, especially after what she did to Sakura. He was apart of the Akatsuki, a great detective and his detective mind wouldn't let him believe that.
"Then do tell me Karen. What is in that bag over there? Don't mind me but what do you need the shaft for?"
"That dear Itachi I can't tell you." Karen raised a hand. "It's military secret. Top military secret."
Itachi wanted to laugh. She was acting and she believed he bought it.
"If you believe it." Itachi turned to leave but he thought that he'd stick around. He began walking until he was out of sight then turned and climbed a tree till he could see them.
Karen scowled. Oh how she hated him. He always had to act better than them all. She turned and motioned to Charako to continue.
"Let's hope he stays away."
The three entered the shaft until they were further in. So far in it was always dark.
"Let's leave her there for now." Amu said coldly.
"Why do you have to be so mean?" He asked her, turning from the body bag.
"Why do you care? I'm your girlfriend." Amu pointed out, stabbing his chest with her index finger.
"My girlfriend? I don't get to hold you, kiss you or treat you right. I- Amu you're different."
"You're right. I was stupid before, didn't know what I was looking for. But now I do. Karen invited me on this thing, adventure. Now I found what I was looking for. I looked for thrill and I have it. I have thrill and I'll have power." She raised a clenched fist. "And now that I have that, I don't I repeat. I don't need you."
Amu spat the words out and stomped off into the dim light.
All was silent for a while.
"Why do you let her talk to you like that?" A muffled voice said. Charako smirked.
"How long have you been awake?" He asked.
"Long enough for the air to run almost out." Sakura coughed. After two minutes she breathed in deeply. Fresh air, or as fresh as the air in a mine shaft could get.
Karen had returned to the manor in her disguise as Sakura and was now in bed, reading. Sasuke came out of the bathroom. She glanced up. He had a towel around his neck and a boxer on. His upper muscles showing off. Karen, or 'Sakura' smiled. Her man, yes hers, was absolutely gorgeous.
"Like what you see?" Sasuke ruffled his hair.
"I could get used to it." She closed her book. Sasuke crawled on the bed and kissed her lips. It wasn't long before he pulled away.
"What's wrong?" 'Sakura' raised an eyebrow.
"It's just- I have to get something from. . ." Sasuke got off the bed and walked to the door, he glanced back at her and left. Something bothered him.
He entered the lounge and found his mom sitting there. She must've read his expression because she asked:
"Dear, what's wrong?" She pattered the seat next to her on the sofa.
Sasuke sat down and looked at his mother.
"Just now, I kissed Sakura. And it was different."
A/N: Wait what?! It was different? How?. . . Sasuke you have no idea of how different she is do you? Love really does make you blind.
