I want to say sorry for not uploading for quite a while! I knew exactly what I wanted to write but I had a few difficulties to put them into words. I hope you'll like this chapter! Mwaa 3
Oh, and a biiiiig thank you for all of my reviewers! I love you!
„It's me. We need to talk now.", said the man I saw last before nearly dying.
Shocked I opened my eyes only to close them tightly again, they hurt because of the light which he switched on.
„What? Could you please turn the lights off? My eyes hurt.", I said quietly. He wants to talk? Prepare yourself for the worst, Sakura. Usually the 'we need to talk' sentence is the first step to break up with someone, but we aren't even together. Did he want to throw me out of the pool house right now?
He switched the lights off and sat on the other side of the bed and looked at me. The moonlight was shining through the glasswalls lightly and I saw Sasuke opening his mouth but closing it again. He was acting kind of strange but it was really interesting to see him like this.
„So? What did you...".
„Why did you want me to turn off the lights?", he asked.
„My eyes are sore from that stuff that you put into the water to clean it and the doc told me to wear sunglasses but they are still in your livingroom, I guess.", I answered. „And to be honest I didn't expect someone to come here.". He nodded and looked through the pool house. I raised my eyebrows and thought that he was acting kind of out of character. He must have something on his mind if he acts like this. A few minutes went by and we only sat there.
He sighed once again and started to speak. „How are you?", he asked with an emotionless voice.
This really suprised me. First he tries to ignore me, then he wants me out of this house and now he cares about me and my health?
„Err.. I'm okay? I'm alive.", I laughed lightly.
„Why didn't you get out of the pool.".
„I already told Naruto, why don't you ask him, I want to sleep now.", I tried to get rid of him. His behaviour made me feel really uncomfortable.
„I want to hear it from you. Now tell me.", he demanded with a glare. God, what's wrong with him?
„Fine. There wasn't a ladder and you didn't help me out. So I tried to get out by myself and before you ask how I got those wounds, I laid my arms right on the glass.", I answered already annoyed to repeat myself. I heard him sigh deeply.
„Is this all?". My voice made it loud and clear that I wanted to sleep.
„I'm sorry.".
…
…
…
„What?", I asked incredulously. From this moment on I was fully awake and scooched over to him a little more. He didn't look at me. „What did you just say?".
„I don't repeat myself. You heard me.", he turned his head towards me. His beautiful face was catching a little of the moonlight and his black eyes were full of emotions. This was the first time I saw him like this.
„But why are you sorry? It was not your fault?".
„I didn't help you.", he said and turned his head again away from me. Well, if you see this like he does, then yes, it was his fault. But I couldn't blame him because I know that everything was my fault.
„I don't blame you, Sasuke.", my voice cracked up and sounded hoarsely. I shouldn't talk much anymore, my throat felt as if I swallowed a scrubber . I touched his shoulder and he turned his head back to me. Trying to sit next to him the pain in my ribs came back. Closing my mouth, my hand that touched his shoulder grabbed my chest tightly I hissed through my teeth. His body moved quickly to me and laid me back down on the mattress.
„Lay back, you should let your rips heal and not walk or stand or do anything at all.".
Nodding I breathed in and out to make my pain to go away.
„You okay?", he asked a little worried.
„Mhm...", I answered with gritted teeth. We stayed on our positions for a few moments.
„You know,", I started. „When I was at the bottom of the pool I looked up to see the blurry moon shine through the water. I was deep in thoughts and was sure that this were my last moments on earth. But then I saw something standing right in front of the moonlight and it got darker under water. The next I know is that someone applied first aid on me, ripped my clothes off of me and put me in the bathtub which he filled with warm water but it felt fucking hot, to be honest. Then I fainted.", purposefully I skipped the part where I think I saw him and him telling me to not leave him.
„Do you know who it was? Because no one really talked about the incident after I came back here.", I asked him and got up and sat cross-legged next to him. He didn't answer and I thought he didn't hear me and wanted to ask him one more time but then he answered.
„I guess that was Akamaru.", he said.
„What? Kiba's dog pulled me out? And how does a dog know how to apply first aid? And how...".
„No, the dark thing you saw when you were under water – that was Akamaru.", he said. I raised my eyebrows and looked at him quizzically. His eye twitched. I bet he wanted to tell me that I'm stupid but what did Kiba's dog do outside of the house?
„When I first came to... talk to you", he said knowing that his speech back then affected me. „I walked back inside and wanted to go back to bed I heard Akamaru scratching and howling at Kiba's door. I tried to wake him but he sleeps like a dead. So I took Akamaru and thought about taking a walk with him, I didn't want him to pee in the house again. I looked for his leash but didn't find it anywhere. Then I decided to take him to the garden. I saw him running right to the pool and he started to howl at the water. Akamaru always howls at his reflection so I didn't think much of it. After watching the dog for a few seconds I saw the light still burning in the pool house. I walked over and called your name but you didn't answer. That's when I heard a loud splash, the dog jumped into the pool and than I knew that something wasn't right. I hurried to the pool and looked for any signs of water on the floor to see if you got out already and I just didn't see you but there was only the glass with your blood. I looked at the water and was able to see you when Akamaru tried to get you out. He bit your t-shirt and tried to get you out but he couldn't. Then I jumped in, got you out, put you down on the grass and applied first aid on you. I think that I pushed your chest a little harder than I thought, seeing you dying in front of me... well, when I heard you breathing regularly I ran with you inside, took off your clothes and put you in the bathtub. You were cold and I thought that it would make it better.", he said monotonously.
What should I say? I was speechless. I always thought of him as the one who doesn't care for anyone but himself and his girlfriend. Talking about his girlfriend... maybe a change of subject would make the tension here dissapear.
„Hey Sasuke, where is Karin? I haven't seen her today..".
„She hates you.", why, thank you. „Even more since she read the story about you being her replacement.". He said looking at the ceiling.
„I'm not her replacement. I'll try to explain her that this is all just a misunderstanding!". She hates me because of wrong assumptions, I need her to know the truth. „I am so sorry, Sasuke, if it caused her any trouble, I will explain her that this is not what I want, I don't want to be in the band!", I pleaded still hoarsely with my hand on my heart. Nodding as if to show me that he understands me, he stood up and walked towards the door. Did he want to go now?
„Sasuke, please wait!", I said rushed and tried to get out of the bed as he nearly walked out. Ignoring the pain I gritted my teeth and walked to him. He turned around with a raised eyebrow and narrowed eyes and said: „What?".
Still ignoring the pain that went through my chest I hugged him tightly. Well, as tightly as I was able to. He was a whole head taller than me so my head lay on his chest and I have to say that he smelled really good.
„Thank you. Thank you for saving my life.", I said into his chest. I felt a little shy hugging someone who acted as if he hated me and wanted me out of the house but still he saved my life.
But what really suprised me was when he slowly hugged me too and I was able to feel his very well built chest. My face blushed a little and I was glad that it was practically completely dark in this pool house.
I loosened my grip and wanted to step back, only to feel him still holding me tightly. My heart beats were incredibly fast and I didn't know what was going on with me or with him. Why did he still hold me? Why am I thinking in such a way of him? I shouldn't notice his arms flexing as he held me, or his very attractive masculine smell, the way my body fitted into his perfectly.
My hands were now on his chest and I looked up and saw him looking down at me, right into my eyes. Feeling his steady heartbeat under my handpalms made me realise that he's not as unemotional as he seems. He's also just a normal person even when he acts like he's the grinch.
His head slowly came nearer and nearer and my heart was about to jump out of my body. His black eyes reminded me of the blackness I saw when I looked up from the bottom of the pool and I was hypnotized. My eyelids flickered when our noses touched and I saw him closing his eyes and his forehead touched mine. I closed my eyes and prepared myself for a kiss but his mouth moved to my neck and gave it light butterfly kisses. My eyes opened a little and I felt a moan escape my lips when I moved my hands on his shoulders and felt his everywhere on my back. Goosebumps were all over my small body. His touch was amazingly hot and his little kisses made my mind swirl and I couldn't think straight anymore. Slowly his kisses made their way to my chin, my cheek and then the corner of my lips. I felt his hot breath mixing with mine and I touched his cheek lovingly. My heart wanted me to go on but my head told me something different.
„Sasuke", I breathed. „We.. we shouldn't... Karin...", I wanted to kick myself but I didn't want to be the one who makes out with someone who's in a relationship. I wouldn never be able to look Karin in the eyes anymore if this would go on.
He suddenly stopped with his lips still on the corner of mine. His grip on me loosened up and my hands were off of his shoulders. We looked at each others eyes and I'm sure we both thought the same: holy shit.
„Sasuke Baby! Where are youuuu?", cried Karin.
Still standing a feet away from each other we looked out of the glasswalls and saw Karin in the garden looking from left to right. „Sasukeee!", her voice boomed.
While she was there we didn't move or breath at all. She walked back into the house walking like an elephant and talking to herself about her lost Sasuke-Baby.
„I think you should go, Sasuke.", I said looking at my hands. „Karin is looking for you.".
He nodded with a stoic face and walked out but on the doorstep he stood still. Not looking at me he said coldly: „This never happened. Forget it. Don't even dare to mention that I came here.", and walked out. He left the door open so I walked to it and closed it. I leaned with my back against the door and slid down. Sitting on the floor I touched my lips and didn't know what to do, say or think.
I felt so dirty, ashamed and was in the mood for more.
….
„Good morning, Sakura!", said Ino while jumping on the bed.
„Argh, Ino, please. Stop jumping, okay? I'm still sore...", I mumbled. She stopped suddenly. Ino being so obedient made me open my eyes and look at her. She was looking at me with her big blue eyes and a nice duck face.
„Er.. Ino? Why are you looking at me like that?", I asked. She still looked wierdly at me and I narrowed my eyes, there's something cooking.
„Sakuraaaaaaaa?", she blinked her eyes like a little child asking for candy. Not answering her I looked at her and nodded.
„You know, me and the girls are in a band, right?".
„Yes?", I answered dumbly.
„And you know that sometimes we have to go on tour, right?", she was now lying on her back and looked at me. I sighed and nodded again.
„Oh honey, I am so sorry. But me and the girls are going away for a while now. We can come home for a day or two sometimes but it won't be too often. How about exchanging numbers? We could call each other, what do you say?", she explained it like I was a little child that asked where the babys come from.
„I understand that, Ino and it's okay. I knew that you would have to work and I also will have to find work and an apartement. How about the boys? Are they also going on tour?", I asked smiling tiredly.
„I'm glad that it's okay for you, honey! Well, the boys were on a big tour a few months back and now they only are going on smaller gigs. They may be gone for a few days but not for weeks like us. Hinata and Tenten are already in the car and wrote you letters saying that it's not okay to wake you at such a time and you being not really healthy and all that stuff but I'm not a friend of writing.. ah okay let's be honest. Actually I wanted to write you a letter but I was busy with packing, hehe.", she grinned. She looked at her watch and sighed deeply.
„God, I hate to get out of bed. Get well soon, Saku. I wrote my mobile phone number on Tenten's letter! Call me when you're up and all fine!", she gave me a light kiss on the cheek and stood up.
„See you soon, Saku!", she said while practically running out of the pool house and I didn't even had the chance to tell her goodbye.
…
After a soothing shower I changed into a pair of black skinny jeans, black high heels, a long baby pink top and took my grey trenchcoat out of the cupboard. My hair was in a high ponytail and the make up I wore was decent. Just black eyeliner, eyeshadow and mascara which only made my green eyes shine brighter. Walking out of the pool house and past the pool of hell I knocked three times at the kitchen door before opening.
„Hello? Guys?", I asked loudly and walked further into the kitchen. The click clack from my heels made loud noises and you could probably hear it in the whole house. I didn't tell the boys but I planned some things for today. It may didn't seem like it but I did try to find some apartements and jobs. There were some offers for a few apartements and I called those people who offered them; most of them didn't ask for any information, they only gave me a date on which I should visit the houses. I applied on some jobs here even before I came to Konoha but I still didn't get a reply.
No one answered so I guessed that the boys brought their girlfriends to the airport. I walked into the livingroom, looked around and shrugged. I already had my hand on the doorknob and opened the door ajar when a hand on the right side of my head slammed it close. I yelled and jumped a few feet away. At the door was Sasuke looking better than ever.
„Where are you going?", he asked.
The yelling and jumping wasn't really peachy, I felt my throat and rips hurt.
Sasuke was wearing a beige coloured and a white t-shirt. It looked really nice on him and that moment I wished I could've kiss him right now because remembering the last night... OH GOD! LAST NIGHT!
„I errr... am going... somewhere?", I kind of asked and tried to look nonchalant by looking at everything but him.
„Hn. Where.".
I didn't answer because I didn't think of his sentence as a question.
„W-Would you... can I go now?... Please?", I asked wierdly and shifted from leg to leg. It was hard to stand on high heels, I know you understand me.
He didn't answer; only looked at me with narrowed eyes. Fiddeling with the belt of my trenchcoat I wasn't able to look him in the eyes, not after yesterday.
His butterlfy kisses were soft and his hot hands all over my back were leaving me all tingly and I felt my face redden at the thoughts of me and Sasuke... in the dark... touching each other lovingly... feeling the longing in every breath we take. Woah! Code red! Code red! Stop thinking – he's looking and talking to you, Sakura!
My face felt hot and it got quite warm under the trenchcoat, I needed to get out of here, and fast! Get a grip on yourself girl, you can do it! Be all cool and walk by as if nothing happened!
„Excuse me, but I really need to go now.", I mumbled under my breath and hoped he heard it.
„I won't ask again. Tell me where you are going.", he demanded in his usual tone. Did I even have a chance? I need to get going now or else I would be late for the first appointment.
Still not looking him in the eyes I answered quietly: „I have an appointment. There are a few flats in the city and I clearly remember you telling me to get out of here.. so, yeah.".
Shyly I looked at him finally and saw his face was not giving anything away. His eyes were hard and cold as rocks and with his arms folded he looked like he was scrutinizing me.
„I really need to go now, Sasuke.", I urged.
„I'm coming with you.", he said and walked into the kitchen and grabbed his car keys. What? Why?
„Sasuke, I can assure you that I'm really looking for a place! You don't have to watch me!", I pleaded, again.
He only opened the door and looked at me expectantly. „Get out.".
No need to be told twice, right? We walked to the garage and he walked straight to a car and sat on the driver seat. This was the car I saw on my first day here, before I got arrested.
It was even shinier and... I just don't have any other words for it, this car was beautiful! It fitted perfectly to my high heels.
The window scrolled down and Sasuke looked pissed off at me: „Get in.".
I opened the door and sat on the smooth black leather seat, even the inside of the car was amazing. After about 30 seconds Sasuke sighed harshly when I didn't say anything.
„Where do you need to go?", he hissed.
I gave him the paper on which I wrote every single appointement and he started to drive. While we drove around the streets he put on dark sunglasses eventhough the sun didn't shine.
Him hissing at me made me really insecure. Why did he do that? First he ignores me, then hates me. Yesterday he was touching me lovingly, as if I could break and now he treated me like he hated me again! I mean, it wasn't my fault what happened in the pool house, right? I know, maybe I shouldn't have hugged him but he's the one who held me dearly when I wanted to step away! And he was the one who kissed my neck! If it wasn't for me we surely would've made out on my bed.
And why did he want to come with me now?
„Sasuke? Where were the others? They weren't at home...".
„Not your business.", he answered harshly. I nodded and felt the tears in my eyes so I quickly looked out of the window. If he hated me so much he could've let me go on my own. Or he just wanted to make sure that I got an apartement today.
….
The drive to the first house was really quiet after his not so nice answer to my question earlier. We were in a really posh district and all the houses looked nice, the front yards were green and full of beautiful plants. There were even some of the inhabitants cutting the lawn. Two women were laughing with each other and there was a boy on his bike; he threw the newspaper into the yards. It was just the perfect neighborhood. It kind of reminded me of the Wisteria Lane of Desperate housewives just without all the drama. The people here just looked like nothing could break their mood. Sasuke's car fitted perfectly in this street and made it look even better than it already was. A few minutes later we parked in front of a really nice house, with a garage and a small but cute front yard. It was two stories high so I guessed I would be sharing it with other people. It would probably be too expensive for me to live alone in there.
We walked to the door and I touched my hair and straighted my jacket and knocked three times. Waiting for about ten minutes I decided to call the man that offered this flat. But he didn't answer.
„Well... guess we can go to the next appointement?", I looked at him and walked back to the car, he wouldn't answer me anyway.
He also walked back to the car and started the engine. His car made some purr-like noises and wooosh, we were out of the perfect neighborhood in which I would've fitted in perfectly. Doing some smalltalk I tried to get him to talk to me or change his mood a little. But everything I tried was in vain. He didn't answer me once.
I gave up on him when we arrived at the second flat. We parked again and I took a look around and came to the conclusion that this area was also pretty even if it wasn't as beautiful as the first. Sasuke opened the trunk and took out a hoodie and put the hat-thing on. You couldn't see his hair nor his eyes as he still wore the sunglasses, but I couldn't care less. If he feels cold tand thinks that the sun shines too brightly then let him do what he wants.
The outside of the house looked a little older and it didn't have a garden or a garage. Again I straightned my hair and trenchcoat and cleared my throat and knocked the door. A few seconds later an older woman opened the door.
„Hello! You must be Sakura Haruno. Come in come in!", she said with a smile.
„Yeah, hello Mrs Sakazu! It's nice to meet you!", I said shaking her hand. Sasuke walked into the house still with the sunglasses and hood on.
„Take them off please! We're inside now, Sasuke.", I whispered and hoped that Mrs Sakazu excused his behaviour. But Sasuke being Sasuke ignored me naturally. Sighing deeply I walked behind the woman and listened to her telling me about the advantages of the house. The windows were all big and the flat was renovated, the bath is new and the walls were thick, so I wouldn't have to listen to loud cars or the yelling of children from my maybe-neighbors. She showed me every single room and what amazed me the most was the walk-in closet. This is like every women's dream and Sasuke looked wierdly at me through his dark sunglasses when I awed. The woman asked his name and wanted to shake his hand but he acted like a pure bastard. He ignored her hand and spat out his name. To her question if he were my boyfriend he snorted and told her to show the rooms or to shut up. She ignored his attitude and I said that I was sorry that my cousin's friend only did me a favour in driving me to the appointements. She nodded and smiled lovingly at me.
„I really thought that he was your boyfriend. He doesn't leave you any space to breath, he's like a dog that follows his master.", she said and winked when Sasuke's mobile rang and went outside. „But I'm glad that he is not your boyfriend. He seems like a... well, one of those machos that like to go out with girls but doesn't want their girlfriends to meet with her friends because she could meet a boy that could be better than him. And I bet he thinks of himself as a casanova. That's what his I-don't-give-a-shit attitude tells me. How come you know your cousin's friend?", she laughed. We were now standing
„I moved to my cousin's house a few days ago. He and... his friend are living together but he doesn't really like me so I try my best to move out as soon as possible.", I explained quietly.
„Oh darling! I would love to let you rent this flat! You could sign the contract immediately but first we have to discuss some things. Come, we'll go to the living room for that!", she smiled.
We walked to the living room which was flooded with sunlight. I can already imagine me decorating the room here.
„So, miss Haruno. I can see your a lovely girl, you dress nice, you behave", she looked at Sasuke as he walked back in „and you are a girl that deserves a home like this.", she said and fished some papers out of her bag.
„Thank you mrs Sakazu. I really appreciate your compliments.", I said with a blushed face.
„As you can probably see, I took already the papers out. All you need to do is to sign, darling. Oh, oh, before I forget, hahahah. Excuse me, I'm an old woman, I kind of forget a lot. So tell me, what do you do for a living? You look like one of these models from those glossy magazines, I bet you're a model, right?", she asked. This woman was just too kind!
„Well, to be honest, I don't have a job at the moment. And thank you again for the compliment but I'm surely not a model. As I said, I'm still looking for a job but I saved some money when I was living in the USA so you wouldn't need to worry about me paying regularly. What would the monthly rent be?", I said with confidence. My saved money would surely be enough. I looked at Sasuke who stood in front of the big windows with (Oh suprise!) a pissed off look. He walked towards us and stood on my left side and crossed his arms. Mrs Sakazu shook her head but still answered me.
„Alright! It's 595 dollar. Do you think you saved enough? Cause you still have to buy furniture and some food right? And you still don't have a job, Miss.", she said with calculating eyes.
„Oh wow.. that's quite a lot.", I said shocked. „Miss Sakazu, I would love to move in in your house but I am afraid I can't pay this rent.", I said with a sad smile. Darn, I'm already in love with this house. Do you know the feeling when you want something but can't get it? I feel like that.
„Oh darling. That's such a shame.", she pitied me. After some small talk and that stuff we said our goodbyes and Saske and me walked back to the car. I sat sadly on the seat and looked out of the window and mentally kissed the house goodbye. Sasuke raced out of the street and we drove to my last appointement. We drove for about 10 minutes and arrived in a street that looked like those ghettos in Detroit... been once there and won't ever visit it again. I was scared to get shot because those people who live there have quite a tough life. They don't like strangers and especially not strangers with pink hair. Most of them walk around with weapons like guns or knives, I can't blame them. In neighborhoods like these I would walk with a gun, too.
But not every place is like the one in Detroit. I'll give this area a try maybe I will have nice neighbors and a cosy place to stay in.
Sasuke parked behind some wild bushes and made sure that his car was not seen. I looked at him quizzically and he grumbled that he didn't want someone to steal his car. I understand him, this place doesn't look really trustworthy. Especially for a car like his.
We stepped out and walked for about three minutes and arrived at a 6 stories high house which looked wrecked. I raised my eyebrow and didn't know what to do. Would I have to knock? I doubt that, this is a big house probably no one would hear me. I took out my phone and called the person who offered the flat. After a few beeps someone answered it.
„Argh, yeah?", came a pissed off voice. I think I just disturbed this person.
„Hi, this is Sakura Haruno. We talked about the free flat on the Kirimastreet? We have an appointement right now?", I kind of asked in case it wasn't the person that I already talked to.
„Oh fuck. I'll be there in a minute.", said the man and ended our conversation.
„Alright, he'll be here any minute.", I said to Sasuke who still had his hoodie and sunglasses on.
„Could you please tell me why you hide yourself in that hoodie and behind sunglasses?". My tone was getting a little annoyed, after all of his mean acting you couldn't blame me.
He also answered annoyed.
„I'm a celebrity! What do you think people would do if they'd recognise me? Especially in places like this.", he said. „They would go looking for my car and steal it.".
Oh, now it made sense! The first appointement was in a street where the people themselves were rich and didn't need to steal a car. The second place was normal but I guess he just doesn't trust people. And this place.. well I think my comparison between this place and Detroit is enough.
About 20 minutes later Sasuke was leaning against a wall and my feet hurt like hell and we heard a car screeching. We looked at the street and saw an old car, it looked like a Ford, dirty and with some dents here and there. I heard Sasuke snorting, he was probably comparing his and this car. I looked back to the car and saw a man getting out. He wore a white muscle shirt with a few stains on it. His head was shaved and you could see a big chain neckless around his neck and he was chewing a gum. I smiled eventhough I wanted to hide somewhere and waved. He slammed his car door close and walked with that walk. How do I explain that walk, hm. Have you ever seen a guy walk around with his legs wide apart as if his balls needed air? The guys that walk like that always think they look good while walking like the biggest idiot on earth. He was wearing some sweatpants and looked like a wannabe Eminem.
„Hello, it's nice to finally meet you!", I said and walked to him. He looked me up and down, still chewing on his gum, and grinned like a mad cat.
„Hey babe. Man if I would've known that you're such a hotty I would have dressed more properly and come earlier.", he said with a selfconfidence that would put Kiba to shame. I forced my smile to stay on my face and giggled fakely.
He leaned against his car and looked me up and down again and nodded, who knew what the hell he did there but I wanted him to stop.
„So, mister..?".
„I can be anyone for you, babe. How about a date tonight? I'll make sure you won't regret it 'cause that would be some memory you would never forget.", he whispered the never and licked his lips. Again I heard Sasuke snorting. How do I say no without being impolite to my possible landlord?
Slightly giggling I decided to ignore it. „How about showing me the flat first?", I smiled brightly.
He nodded his head and walked towards the entrance.
„This ya boyfriend, sweetheart?", he asked disgusted and also looked Sasuke up and down. I bet Sasuke was glaring under his sunglasses.
„No, he's just the friend of my cousin. He offered to drive me here.", I said. Sasuke's head moved to the left and he let out a bad vibe. What's with that?
„Oh really? And where is his car?", asked Eminem. Woops, I guess I know why he's sending these vibes out.
„Oh you know,", think of something, Sakura! That wannabe looked expectanly at me. Okay, drastical change of subject, girl!
„God, it's quite hot today isn't it?", I asked and fanned some air at my face. I took off the trenchcoat and made sure that he had a nice view of my cleavage. „I hope you don't mind?", I asked with big innocent eyes. His eyebrows twitched and I saw his grin come back.
„Oh not at all, babe.". He looked at me once more and opened the door.
„The lift is broken, we have to walk.", he said and winked. „After you, pretty lady.".
Thanking him, eventhough he gave me the creeps, I walked upstairs and made sure to swing my butt a little and moaning slightly, of course because of the hottness in here.
But after three stories I moaned more loudly and this time I really meant it. My feet hurt and I started sweating as I wasn't used to climb so many fucking stairs. I hate them!
„Stop, babe. We're here.", I nearly fell down the stairs because what I saw nearly gave me a heartattack. There was a door that looked like someone kicked it because it was nearly broken.
„The last one who lived in here was a criminal and the police had to kick the door in. We'll repair it soon. Go in, you'll like it.", urged the slimebag.
Yeah, sure. The flat was a mess and I really couldn't imagine me living here. Suddenly I heard someone screaming.
„Get back here, asshole! You are the father of my child! How can you leave us!", a woman yelled.
„What? Are you fucking kidding me? Look at the baby! It's black! We are both white, you stupid woman! You cheated on me!", yelled a man now. Wow, is this some kind of a daily soap? I looked at Sasuke with big eyes and saw his eyebrows raised.
„Ah, don't mind them. The walls are thin but you get used to it.", said the man I still didn't know the name of.
I nodded and gulped loudly.
„My grandfather is black! That's why our baby is black, you asshole!", yelled the woman again.
„OH MY GOD your grandfather isn't related to you, bitch! Your grandma married him when her first husband died and that was 4 YEARS AGO!", yelled the man and you could hear a baby screaming. I didn't know what to do or say because this was the first time I heard someone yelling like this. The bickering didn't stop and I thought about calling the police because I pitied the poor baby that was crying the whole time. But that guy still urged me to go through the rooms.
That guy showed me around the rooms and assured me that with a little renovation this would look like a paradise. If you had a lot of imagination then yes. But it's still better than nothing, right?
„What about the rent? You know, I still have to find a job but I got some money...", I started and looked out of the window to see a small park where kids played all alone without a single grown up. Didn't the parents care about what their children did? I surely wouldn't let my kid go out on his own in a neighborhood like this.
„You know babe, actually it costs 400. But I'll make it 290 for you, how about that?", he offered with a sly grin. I looked at him unbelievably.
„Really?", I screeched. He nodded proudly and looked like he wanted a hug.
„Oh god, that's really nice of you! With the rest of the money I could renovate all of this and...", I started making plans.
„Just one date and this flat is yours, babe.", he said cocky. I stopped talking and looked at the man. So my daydreams of living here depended on a date with Mr Dirty? Thinking about dating him had it's pros and cons. I would get a cheap rent, maybe he'll turn out as a gentleman and I would get to know the place around here when he takes me on a date. Everyone deserves a second chance. But on the other hand look at him. He doesn't look like he could be a gentleman with his wierd style and language. But one date couldn't hurt, right? Just a few hours of talking with him, I wouldn't have to kiss him or anything. I smiled lightly and was about to accept his offer but got interrupted.
„No.", said Sasuke in a deep voice. I looked at him with my mouth opened and laughed.
„Hahaha, thanks Sasuke but I don't think that...", I was about to tell him that this wasn't his choice whether I go on a date with that guy or not.
„You won't move in here. Get out, we're going.". He grabbed my arm roughly and practically dragged me out the flat. Who the hell does he think he is? He wanted me out of his house and now that I found a flat which I can pay he dragges me out? I couldn't think straight and started screaming.
„What! Stop! Sasuke! Please!", I screamed. Probably the whole house heard me but they wouldn't care. They only care about themselves in places like these. Even I would think twice of helping someone that you hear scream in an area like this. I struggled and looked at the guy behind me, he leaned against a wall and lit a cigarette.
„Call me, babe. Whenever you want. This place is made for you; I would even come and help you.", he suggested with a dirty tone. After my little struggling Sasuke grabbed my waist and put me on his shoulder, I was able to look at his nice bum and could touch it if I wanted to. And I wanted to. But I couldn't.
„Sasuke! What the fuck, let me go!", I screamed scared that he could drop me as he walked down the stairs but he held me tightly on my thighs.
„Sasuke let me go now! We're already out of the house! I can walk alone!", I screamed and hit his back. It probably didn't even tickle him. He let me go when we were at his car he opened the door and put me to the ground.
„Get in.", he ordered in his typical Sasuke tone. After glaring for a few seconds at him I stomped my feet and turned around, grumbled a few obscenities and got into the car.
….
After about 30 minutes of silent driving we arrived at the boy's house. He drove into the garage and I couldn't hold myself any longer when I stepped out of the car.
„You fucking asshole! That flat was cheap and would look good with a little renovation! What the hell is wrong with you!", I yelled at him with teary eyes. „Is it because of the area? Get a grip on yourself! I choose where I want to live! Not you! And not every fucking place has to be a fucking good area! Not every single person in this world has enough money to buy or rent a big flat in a posh street! I am one of them!"
He got out of the car and walked towards the exit of the garage without saying or doing something. It was like I didn't say anything at all.
„Stop Sasuke! Don't ignore me you bastard!", I yelled again and ran behind him with my heels click clacking. I hit his back a few times and called him some names but he still ignored me.
„I can't believe you! You hate me so much that you wanted to make sure that I really go to these fucking appointments and when I found a good flat you just destroy everything!", I said hoarsely and breathed heavily. All this yelling at Sasuke and lying with my ribs against his shoulder when he carried me pained lots and tears started to flow slowly down my face. I tried to clear my throat to keep the tears away but it only got worse. I leaned against the cold wall and tried to calm down. From the corner of my eye I saw Sasuke looking back at me and then he turned around and walked towards me. I looked up at him with a tears and make up stained face and he grabbed my chin harshly.
„You'll thank me one day for not letting you move in there", he hissed aggressively. „And I didn't do it for you, but for Naruto. He would eat me if he would know that I'd let you move in there!".
He let go of my chin just as harshly and walked with big steps out of the garage.
Just like the night before I slid down the wall but this time I cried. I cried because I felt pain and so much more feelings because of Sasuke.

Alright people! I hope to read some reviews about this chapter!
And while you're writing one, tell me what you would do if you were in Sakura's place. Would you go back and rent the flat? Would you run away and start a new life somewhere else? Would you forgive Sasuke and thank him like he said? Find a boyfriend and make Sasuke jealous? Or would you wait till your healthy enough and become a star?
I got so many things in my head about what she could do but I can't decide it, it's waaay to difficult! :(
Tell me what you would do, maybe I'll put it into the next chapter :)
