Chapter 7: Strange stuff happen

Previously:

"Oh, what are you doing to me, cherry blossom? What are you doing to me?" Sasuke murmured as he watched the sleeping figure of the pinkette. His hand moved to caress her cheek, slowly and gently being careful not to wake the sleeping beauty. Sakura stirred in her sleep and turned to the side. She hugged the arm that Sasuke used to caress her cheek, causing the Uchiha's onyx eyes to widen at the sudden contact. After a short second of shock he smiled warmly.

"Sleep tight cherry blossom, sleep tight." Sasuke said and continued to caress her cheek until he too fell asleep laying his head beside Sakura's curvy body.


It was Sunday, the day that Sakura hated the most. She woke up really early. Her eyes flicked to the clock on her night table and groaned when she saw it was 9 o'clock. She tried to get up but something stopped her in doing so. Her emerald eyes shifted to where the source of the weight pushing her down was coming from.

'Oh, my god' Sakura thought to herself as she saw the sleeping figure of Sasukewho was resting his head on Sakura's stomach. 'Oh god how did this happen?' Sakura thought but then shrugged the whole thing off and drifted off into deep slumber. Hell she wouldn't get up at 9 nine o'clock on a Sunday morning. While she was sleeping the other teens were already up.


- With Neji and Tenten-

Neji was already up and dressed. He sat on the sofa, flicking the TV on and glancing at Tenten's sleeping figure. 'Should I wake her up? But what if she asks why I woke her up? Oh, I know we can go to the court yard and play basketball, I mean we both play, we're both good at it.' Neji was deep in thought and didn't notice that Tenten already woke up.

She rubbed her eyes and stretched, yawning loudly. 'Ugh, stupid Naruto making me sleep in the same room with Neji. I'd probably embarrass my self and Neji would think that I'm stupid or something. Oh god' Tenten thought to herself as she stood up from the bed. Stretching again, she moved towards the bathroom and saw Neji flicking through the channels nervously.

"You know you can always turn it off if you're not watching it" Tenten said and startled the male Hyuga who was occupying the sofa. He turned to look at her and his mouth gaped open as he observed Tenten from top to bottom. She was wearing a black tank top that went down to her navel, leaving her flat stomach exposed and long grey pajama pants that fell freely down her slender legs. Her hair wasn't in her usual buns; it was down, with her brown bangs framing her face. She had the cutest sleepy expression on her face and a light blush that crept up in her cheeks. Neji gulped hard. 'How come I didn't notice what was she wearing last night? Oh, I must've been very tired and preoccupied with Sakura '

"Um…yeah I know, but there was nothing on so I was looking for interesting to watch." Neji sweat dropped and a light blush crept up his cheeks. Tenten scratched her head in confusion 'What happened to Neji-kun? He's usually not like this. Well I better go to the bathroom before I embarrass myself' Tenten shrugged and turned to go into the bathroom.

"Hey Tenten?" Neji finally found the courage to ask her out.

"Mhm?" Tenten turned to look at him.

"Would you by any chance want to go to the basketball court today? We can shoot some balls" Neji asked Tenten who started blushing crimson red.

"Umm…yeah sure, I would love to. Let me just get ready" Tenten said and rushed over to the closet then into the bathroom. 'Should I call the girls and tell them? Nah, I'll probably wake them up. I'll tell them later.' Tenten said and took a quick shower. After getting dressed and checking if everything's ok she left the bathroom.

"I'm ready Neji-kun" Tenten said and startled Neji. When he heard her voice he jumped off the sofa and looked at her with awe. Tenten wore black beach shorts, a red tank top with a saying 'Don't mess with me' in black letters, black hoodie and black and red Nike high tops. Her hair was in one big bun instead of two. She took the ball her parents gave her for her 13th birthday and smiled at Neji.

"Shall we?" Tenten said. Neji shook his head and smiled back at her.

"Yeah let's go" Neji said and both of them left towards the court yard.


-With Ino, Shikamaru, Narutoand Hinata-

"So what are you planning on doing today?" Naruto asked the three teens who had nested them selves in Ino's sofa.

"Shopping of course, then study for the test. You?" Ino said.

"I was p-planning on studying too" Hinata said.

"Oh come on, you can't be serious? How can you study for English? You know how nice Kurenai is, she always helps us. Come on let's go get some ramen Hina-chan, pleaseeee" Naruto whined.

"O-Ok" Hinata said. Naruto was yelling 'Yes' all the time and dragged the poor indigo haired girl through the door leaving the two teens alone. Ino looked around and saw that there was no sign of Naruto or Hinata. 'Mhm we're alone, finally' Ino thought to herself and turned to stare at Shikamaru who had his eyes closed. 'He's so cute when he's resting like that' Ino thought. Ino sighed and turned back to the TV. She gasped when a pair of strong, male hands grabbed her petite waist. Shikamaru sat her in his lap and nuzzled his nose at the crook of her neck, kissing it gently.

"Did you think you can stare at me and get away with it?" Shikamaru said while kissing her neck. The blond haired girl had a beautiful and warm feeling in the pit of her stomach.

"I…um….W-what are you doing Shikamaru?" Ino asked him confused.

"What there's no –Kun this time?" Shikamaru said and turned her to look at him. He cupped her chin and pulled it up, baby blue eyes met brown. Shikamaru didn't wait too long before he crashed his lips over Ino's in a chaste kiss and what started as a chaste ended up as a hot and lustful kiss. After a make out session, they pulled apart both of them panting and fighting for breath.

"Wanna go out for a walk?" Shikamaru asked out of the blue. Ino widened her eyes at this question. Wasn't Shikamaru supposed to be the lazy-ass pineapple head strategist?

"Aren't you too lazy to go out for a walk?" Ino giggled.

"Well usually I am, but…I never turn down cloud gazing" Shikamaru retorted. It was true, Shikamaru loved to watch the clouds. He loved those fluffy, dream-like, white cushions that soared freely in the air.

"Then let's go Shika-kun" Ino said and both of them went cloud gazing.


-With Sasuke and Sakura-

It was 12:30 already and they were still asleep, though they shifted their positions. Sasuke was now sleeping beside Sakura, hugging her waist, while the latter was nuzzled in his chest. Emerald orbs flashed beneath Sakura's milky white eye lids. Her eye widened as she saw Sasuke's muscular chest. 'Now how did THIS happen? Oh, hell no' Sakura thought to herself.

She tried moving a bit but the iron cage that Sasuke's hands were making, was just too strong. 'Stupid Uchiha' Sakura thought to herself. She started wriggling, but Sasuke wouldn't budge. Oh now she was pissed. She inhaled a large amount of air and…screamed at the top of her lungs. Sasuke's onyx eyes snapped open when he heard Sakura's scream. He fell off the bed pulling the cherry blossom with him. Sasuke gasped when his back connected with the floor. Sakura fell on top of him 'crushing' him with half of her weight.

"What the fuck Sakura?" Sasuke growled.

"What gives you the right to sleep in my bed?" Sakura hissed back at him. She tried to lift herself off of Sasuke but he wouldn't let her. "Let me go, Sasuke".

"Hn, not until you apologize" Sasuke smirked. He knew she would never apologize.

"WHAT?" Sakura shrieked. "Apologize for what?"

"For pushing me off the bed" Sasuke replied.

"I am not gonna apologize for that. You weren't supposed to be there in the first place." Sakura snapped back.

"Well then you're not getting up."

"YOU…STUPID UCHIHA I-" Sakura started yelling at Sasuke but was stopped when she heard a loud gasp coming from the direction of the door. Both Sasuke and Sakura jerked their heads up to see who that was; a red headed girl accompanied by a black haired and a dark green haired girl. Sasuke rolled her eyes when he saw Karin standing there. She had a dumbfounded and somewhat angry expression.

"Leave my Sasuke-kun alone, you bitch" Karin growled.

"Excuse me? I was never yours, nor will I ever be. And what the hell are you doing here? This is our dorm, you have no business here." Sasuke snapped back at her. The red headed girl's eyes widened.

"You two are…living together?" She gulped hard.

"Yes we are, now leave because we were in the middle of something." Sasuke said and started nibbling Sakura's neck. The said girl tried to get away and explain Karin everything but the redhead cut her off.

A/N: The reason why Sasuke starts nibbling on Sakura's neck is to anger Karin :D

"Listen to me bitch and listen carefully, I will make your life a living hell if you don't back away from Sasuke-kun" Karin threatened Sakura.

"Who the hell are you to tell me what to do? And you can have your Sasuke-kun for all I care. I-" Sakura was cut off by Sasuke who crashed his lips over hers and left all of the girls including Sakura dumbfounded. Karin's red eyes widened in shock. She gasped at the sight and quickly left, already forming a plan.

'Why did I do that? And why is there a warm feeling in my stomach? Ugh this is all too crazy and confusing. I'm giving the girl false hope.' Sasuke questioned his actions and feelings.

'Oh why did this have to happen? My feelings are coming to the surface; ugh they were better off buried in the darkest corner of my heart. This way it just hurts more.' Sakura thought sadly and somewhat angry. She loved Sasuke for so long and she had been hurt several times. When she finally buried those feelings for him, she felt relieved and for what; only to let her feelings lose and be hurt again.

She parted from Sasuke and looked at him with the tears prickling in the corners of her eyes. Sasuke saw her emerald teary eyes.

"Please let me go Sasuke" Sakura said while on the verge of crying. Sasuke let her go and watched as Sakura lifted herself up and rushed over to the bathroom, grabbing some clothes on her way.

'What happened to Sakura? Ugh, why did I have to kiss her? I cannot be seriously falling for her. I mean, yeah she's attractive, sexy and gorgeous but that doesn't mean anything, does it?' Sasuke thought to himself while lying on the floor with his arms crossed behind his head. He heard the bathroom door open and jerked his head up. He propped himself on his elbows.

"Where are you going?" Sasuke asked Sakura who was crying by now.

"Out, don't wait up" Sakura said and stormed out of the room. Sasuke stood up abruptly and ran after her.

"Sakura wait." Sasuke yelled while chasing Sakura through the corridor. A couple of gasps, whistles and squeals from his fan girls made him stop. He looked down and realized that he was wearing only his black boxers. 'Shit' Sasuke cursed inwardly and went back into his room.

Mean while Sakura was running down the corridors like crazy. She had to run away but she didn't know what she was running from. When Sakura came to the parking lot, she stopped in front of her car.(Naruto brought her car form the park before he went to get his Ramen with Hinata.) She heard someone cough behind her. Sakura wiped her tears away and turned around only to be face with Karin and the two girls from before.

"What do you want Karin?" Sakura asked Karin who stood there with her arms crossed, glaring daggers at her.

"I want you to leave my Sasuke-kun alone" Karin snapped back.

"You can have him if you want to. I don't like him, at all" Sakura rolled her eyes and opened the door of her car only to find it closed by a slender, manicured hand. She turned around and saw another girl. She had orange hair and brown eyes.

"What the fuck?" Sakura asked the orange headed girl. The latter punched Sakura in the stomach and grinned.

"Don't curse" She said and sent another blow to Sakura's stomach. The pink haired girl fell on the ground clutching her stomach. The orange haired girl kicked Sakura in the stomach. She gasped at the contact but fought back nevertheless. She pushed the orange haired girl on the ground jumping on her and started hitting her with all force. The skin around her knuckles was ripped and they were bleeding.

It didn't take too long for Karin and her two friends to react. The black haired and the green haired girl held Sakura's arms, keeping her in place while Karin sent blows to her stomach. Sakura coughed up blood and Karin smirked in triumph. She signaled the two girls to let go of Sakura and grinned contently when she saw her fall down on the ground, clutching her stomach.

"That'll teach you a lesson. If I see you near Sasuke again we'll be brutal" Karin smirked and folded her arms on her chest. "Airi, Mao help Riko up and let's go. We'll leave this bitch twitching in the dirt, after all that's what she deserves" Karin laughed evilly and walked away, together with her three friends.

'What did I do to deserve this?'Sakura tried to move but a sharp pain in her lower abdomen stopped her in doing so. She shrieked in pain while lying there, alone in the parking lot. She lied there for couple of minutes twitching from pain when a warm hand wrapped around her waist pulling her up.

"Sakura are you ok?" A familiar voice said.

"What are you doing here?" Sakura asked.


-With Neji and Tenten-

They were playing basketball for a while now. They were both panting from another good game. The score was tied so they had only one game to decide who's better.

" There's just one more game to announcing who's better." Neji said while sitting down on the ground, breathing heavily. Tenten smirked and stood up. She took the ball and tapped it couple of times.

"Why don't we make it more interesting this time?" Her smirk went wider. Neji stood up and looked at her totally confused and lost.

"What do you mean?" He asked her while he dusted himself off. Neji was wearing a white t-shirt with black basketball shorts and black and white Jordan air shoes.

"Well if I win, you're gonna have to take off your shirt and stay like that for the remaining of the day and you're gonna have to tell everyone you see that I'm better than you in basketball." Oooh Neji liked where this was heading. He smirked in triumph.

"And if I win, you'll go on a date with me" Neji continued. Tenten blushed crimson red and Neji smirked at her reaction. Tenten tapped the ball couple of times after she gained her composure back.

"I'm so gonna beat you." Tenten said while running towards Neji dribbling with the ball. Neji took the ball from her.

"Don't be so sure" he said and smirked. He dribbled with the ball and ran towards the hoop. He jumped and slam dunked the ball. While he was still hanging from the hoop he turned towards Tenten and smirked. "I'll pick you up at 8" He smirked. Tenten took the ball and said.

"This ain't over yet" Tenten started dribbling the ball towards the hoop, but Neji jumped down from the hoop and took the ball over. Tenten tried to take it away from him, but she couldn't. Neji jumped and scored another point. Tenten cursed but inwardly she felt happy. A date with Neji was a date with Neji but she wouldn't fall down without a fight. It was her turn to score.

She took the ball and started dribbling it. Neji went over to her, standing between her and the hoop. Tenten smirked when an idea dawned upon her. She moved to the right and just when Neji did the same, she turned around Neji and move to the left, easily scoring her point. Neji stared at her with wide eyes. 'Did she just dribble me? Ah, hell no.' Neji thought to himself. "Lucky" He muttered in Tenten's ear while he moved past by her.

After playing a while the score was tied. They were both dead tired, but none of them wanted to give up. Breathing heavily, Tenten opened her mouth to speak but Neji rushed her to it.

"The deciding point" He smirked.

"I was about to say the same thing." Tenten smiled at him "Let's play, I'm eager to see you shirtless" Neji smirked at her statement and Tenten blushed when she realized what she just said.

"Damn Tenten I didn't know you were that horny" Neji laughed and took the advantage of Tenten's state in bewilderment to take the ball. When Tenten snapped out of the confusion she ran after Neji. She managed to get the ball away from him and started running in the opposite way, all the while dribbling the ball 'Ha piece of cake.' Tenten thought to herself as she turned her head to the left side, looking for Neji. She didn't see him anywhere behind her and she gasped when Neji took the ball from her right side. A moment of shock had passed until Tenten understood what happened. She ran after Neji but he already scored the point. He slam dunked the ball and was currently hanging on the hoop.

"8 o'clock Friday" The smirking Neji said. Tenten couldn't believe that she had lost and at the thought of going out with Neji made her blush crimson red. He jumped down from the hoop startling Tenten who was deep in thought. She gasped when she snapped out of her thoughts and fell on the ground. Neji saw what he did, so he tried to catch Tenten before she fell, that was before he lost his footing and fell on the ground over Tenten. His body weight had her pinned down to the concrete ground. Tenten looked at him sheepishly.

"Um…Neji?" Tenten said but Neji didn't answer he was just staring at her face, remembering every detail. "Neji-kun?" Neji smirked when he heard the suffix.

"So, Friday at 8?" Neji asked her seductively. Tenten blushed crimson red when she remembered what he was talking about.

"Y-y-yeah, I guess t-that's alright." Tenten stuttered "Neji-kun could you get off of me? So I can get up?" She asked with the sweetest voice. Neji smirked.

"Hn" and he crashed his lips over hers, capturing them in a passionate kiss. Tenten wondered where all of this came from. Neji wasn't the type of boy to do these kinds of things. Somewhere in the park there was another boy that was acting out of character as well.


-With Ino and Shikamaru-

They went to Konoha's biggest park. You know the one where Sakura got drunk these days? Yup that's the one. They've been there for couple of hours now; lying on the green grass watching those fluffy, white cushions that soar freely through the air. Shikamaru was lying on Ino's stomach, while the latter was inclining on a tree. Shikamaru had his hand was wrapped around Ino's arm, gently stroking her exposed shoulder.

"Tell me Shika-kun what is it about the clouds that you find so interesting?" Ino asked out of the blue, gazing at the clouds and trying to figure out what appealed Shikamaru to them. Shikamaru sighed, explaining, troublesome things to a troublesome woman was a troublesome job for Shikamaru, indeed.

"They're free." Shikamaru simply said. "They can soar freely without anyone disturbing them, without having anyone to tell them what to or what not to do." Shikamaru was still gazing at the clouds, enjoying the peace that they gave him. Ino was somewhat impressed of how Shikamaru was thinking. She smiled warmly and turned continued gazing at the clouds.

"Ino?" Shikamaru asked and Ino nodded saying that she's listening to him. "Well, i…um…I was wondering if…if you could help me study f-for the English test?" He sweat dropped at the end of the sentence. He looked up to find Ino smiling warmly at him.

A/N: you might be thinking that Shikamaru was good at everything and that it should be the other way around, but Shikamaru really hated English and he was too lazy to sit down and study for the test. As I said strange stuff happens :D Troublesome

"Of course I would help you" Ino smiled again and turned to look at the clouds once again. 'why would Shikamaru ask for my help? He should be the one helping me with school not the other way around, though I'm pretty good at English. Oh, well.' Ino thought to herself.

'Thank god that she's going to help me. I don't know what I would've done without her.' Shikamaru thought to himself. He sighed and closed his eyes to rest. He started thinking about everything. The first time when he met Ino, the time when she dropped a cake on his head, the time when they were almost attacked because of Ino's yelling. Those memories came across his mind out of the blue.

"Ne Ino?" Shikamaru still had his eyes closed. "Do you remember when we first met?" He shifted to a more comfortable position. Ino was confused.

"Yeah, actually I do, Shika-kun" Ino smiled at the memory "We were so little. First grade." She laughed when she remembered Shikamaru's confused and somewhat petrified expression.

"What are you laughing about?" Shikamaru asked her as he looked up to meet her baby blue eyes.

"Well, I remembered the day when we met. You were so afraid, as if the boogieman was in the classroom." Ino laughed again, while Shikamaru was glaring daggers at her. He stood up a bit so they were at the same eye level. Ino gasped when, she saw his expression.

"C-come on S-Shikamaru I…I-I was just kidding" Ino started stuttering.

(A/N: Ino stuttering? 0.0 yup, there's another strange thing that happened that day :])

"What's the matter, Ino?" Shikamaru said as he moved closer to her and cupped her face with his strong hands. "There's no –Kun?" Shikamaru said and smirked at Ino's red face.

"…" Ino remained silent. There wasn't really anything for her to say.

"Cat got your tongue?" Shikamaru smirked again "Well, let's check" and he crashed his lips over hers. Ino gasped into the kiss. Shikamaru licked her bottom lip asking for entrance and when his permission was granted he slipped his tongue into her mouth and explored her wet cavern. Very soon Ino started kissing him back, battling with his tongue for dominance in a battle that was lost in advance.


-With Sasuke-

It has been couple of hours since the incident with Sakura. He wanted to run after her and apologize about everything but he didn't know where she went so he remained in his dorm. He was lying on the bed, with his arms crossed behind his head, deep in thought about everything.

'What is happening to the world? First Sakura goes off drinking and smoking and then I do things that are so unlike me, ugh what is the matter with me? For one I started talking more. But I can't help it; the words leave my mouth on their own. And what's with that warm feeling in my stomach? Ugh I'm going insane. When will it stop?'He rubbed his templesin frustration, all the while thinking where Sakura was.


-With Sakura-

She woke up after couple of hours, in a very unfamiliar room. It seemed like it was Konoha high dorm room, but she has never been there before. She tried to stand up but a strong headache and a sharp pain in her abdomen kept her in place. She clenched her teeth and clutched her head, breathing in and out almost furiously. 'Stupid bitch. That Karin slut is gonna see. I'm gonna break her neck with my bare hands and I'm gonna slice it with my finger nails. UGH! ' She thought angrily but a familiar voice snapped her out of her rather destructive and murderous thoughts.

"Are you awake?" The familiar voice from before said. Sakura let out the breath she had been holding in.

"What the hell do you want?" She hissed through her clenched teeth.

"Is that any way to talk to your savior?" Gaara's sly voice echoed in Sakura's ears. "In case you might be wondering, you are in my dorm room." A smirk was plastered over his face.

"I'm out of here" Sakura tried to stand up but once again the pain had stopped her.

"You can't go, yet. Here drink this; it should make you feel better" Gaara handed Sakura a dark brown bottle so it was hard for her to see what the liquid was. She took it and took a sip. She started coughing up and Gaara laughed.

"Come on, it's whisky. Your preferred beverage" Gaara smirked. Sakura began to think about Gaara. He really was the devil's seed. The most dangerous one amongst the dangerous, the most evil amongst the evil…Oh, how she hated him.

"It's not my preferred beverage" She used a mocking tone "and I refuse to stay a minute longer in this…Satan's hole." Yet again she tried to stand up and yet again the pain stopped her. Gaara instantly found his way next to her and lifted up the bottle of whisky to her mouth, forcing her to take another sip…or two from it.

"Now, now Cherry blossom" His hand moved to caress her cheek "There's no need to be hostile, when all I want to do is help you" Gaara's false sweet tone, didn't faze her the least. If anything, it only freaked her out. Let's face it sweet tone and a sinister smirk don't go together. It was really out of character for Gaara, but hey this was the OOC day after all.
