Sorry about the delay, haven't had time to write since this past week had been my schools exam week...and although I didn't have any exams I did have to complete my photography assignment. Which took ALL week because I had no CLUE as what the hell I was meant to do not to mention I spent most of it playing around on photoshop. Thumbs up for a fail! But anyway I probably didn't need to write that and i'm pretty sure no one will even read this...anyway on with the story! ENJOY!
"No" Sasuke said, more or less coldly.
"Aw come on Sasuke, don't be a spoil sport" Naruto grinned.
"I wont do it" he stated sternly, crossing his arms for effect.
"Why not Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked, prodding him in the arm with a twig.
"Just...no"
"Sasuke, your going to do it, whether you like it or not" Kakashi insisted.
Sasuke glared at his sensei "No"
"Sasuke you leave me no choice" Kakashi sighed and nodded to Naruto and Sakura who admittedly jumped at Sasuke. And successfully got a hold of him.
Sakura had her arms around him, pinning his left arm at his side and preventing him from moving. While Naruto gripped his right arm, keeping it stretched out in front of him.
"Get off me!" Sasuke growled, trying to get out of his teammates grip.
But it was too late.
Sasuke glared down at what Kakashi shoved into his hand.
"I am not bottle feeding a unicorn"
"Yes you are Sasuke-teme" Naruto laughed as Kakashi lead a small unicorn over to where Sasuke was being held.
"See its not so bad" Sakura grinned, letting Sasuke go.
"Hn" He glared at the now feeding unicorn.
"The u-unicorn looks h-happy" Hinata commented, ignoring the glare Sasuke sends at her.
"This is stupid" Sasuke muttered.
"Hey Hinata-chan, wanna go feed that unicorn over there?" Naruto asked shyly.
Hinata looked as though she was going to faint. She glanced at Sakura, as if asking what she should do.
Sakura smiled encouraging her shy friend.
"O-okey Naruto" Hinata blushed.
Naruto grabbed her hand and led her over to the unicorn he had in mind.
"My work here is done" Sakura laughed.
"Hn. I doubt that. He'll need more help, he might be finally getting it, but hes still clueless" Sasuke muttered.
"You know, you could help him"
Sasuke looked at her slightly confused "what are you suggesting?"
"That maybe you should try talking to him on a brotherly level. You know, seriously... and without the name calling"
"You do realize that your talking to me right?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, and I think its about time that you and Naruto had a proper conversation about something important. And helping him with Hinata would be classified as such a conversation"
"I thought you were the one playing matchmaker"
"I was, but iv'e done my part. So now its time for you to do yours" she smiled at him.
He glared at her "I have no part in this" with this said he handed her the now empty bottle and walked away.
'There is no way in hell that i'm going to talk to Naruto about a girl' he thought to himself.
(Study period)
Sasuke muttered quietly to himself as he walked into the Gryffindor common room. Which thankfully was empty.
He sat in front of the fire. Which as usual, was lit.
"Yo Sasuke-teme, what are you doing in here by yourself?" Naruto's loud voice cut through the silence.
"Hn"
"Don't 'Hn' me teme!" Naruto yelled, coming to sit next to his friend.
Naruto was suddenly silent and started to fidget with the hem of his shirt.
"Hey Sasuke-teme, can I ask you something?" Naruto asked quietly.
'You have to be joking' Sasuke thought, refusing to look towards Naruto.
"Sasuke-teme, normally I would come to you for something like this but I can't find Kakashi-sensei anywhere"
"What do you want?" Sasuke asked, he figured that Naruto probably wouldn't leave till he says something.
"Well you see ... uh" Naruto bit his lip "Hinata-chan sure is neat, eh Sasuke?"
Sasuke sighed "Naruto, everyone already knows that you like Hinata"
"Who is 'everyone'?" Naruto asked nervously.
"Myself, Sakura, Kakashi-sensei and everyone back home"
"Are you serious? How do they know?" Naruto shouted, alarmed.
"Dobe, its pretty obvious" Sasuke rolled his eyes at his friend. Man was he hating this conversation.
"Do you think Hinata-chan knows?" Naruto asked, looking at the floor.
"I wouldn't put it past her"
"Oh..." Naruto became quite.
After a few minutes of an awkward silence, Naruto spoke "hey Sasuke, do you think that-" he was cut off.
"Yes Naruto Hinata likes you. The fact that you have been oblivious to this for so long is worrying" Sasuke said before standing up.
He couldn't take much more of this. As he passed through the portrait/door he Naruto shouted a 'thank you teme' after him.
(Great Hall, still study period)
Sakura was sitting with Harry, Ron and Hermione as they finished up with some homework. Or at least Hermione was.
"Guys, why don't you use this time to do your homework so that you don't have to rush it tomorrow morning?" Hermione asked her friends.
"Because we love rushing to do our homework in the morning" Ron said, not even looking up from the game of wizard's chess that he and Harry were playing.
"Whatever" Hermione muttered.
"I hate you" a monotone voice said from behind the group.
They turned around to see Sasuke glaring at Sakura, who simply smiled at him.
"What are you talking about Sasuke-kun?" she asked sweetly.
"You told Naruto to come talk to me about Hinata didn't you?"
"Wait, he talked to you about Hinata?" she asked, surprised.
"Yes, he did"
"Well I didn't tell him to" she grinned.
"Then why did he?" Sasuke asked, still monotoned.
"I don't know. Maybe because Kakashi-sensei isn't around? Or because it would be to awkward for him to come to me about it"
"Hn" he responded as he took a seat next to his teammate.
"Did you talk to him about it? Like properly?" she asked.
"Hn"
"I'm going to take that as a yes" Sakura said happily.
Harry, Ron and Hermione watched the two younger teens conversation with interest.
"Why are you so happy about it?" Sasuke asked Sakura.
"Because it means that you both trust each other. And can go to each other for advice about certain things" she was still grinning.
"Your over thinking things. All I did was tell him what everyone already knew"
"Exactly" she stated before turning to look blankly at the incomplete homework in front of her.
Sasuke smirked and shock his head slightly "I thought you were meant to be smart"
"Shut up Sasuke-kun" she said, hitting him on the arm.
"Make me" He smirked.
"My my Sasuke, you've been acting awfully odd lately" Kakashi's voice spoke.
Kakashi stood directly behind Sasuke and Sakura, some how neither of the two had noticed him approach them.
"Kaka-sensei its rude to sneak up on people" Sakura smiled, turning to look at her sensei.
"Its not rude if I choose to consider it as training" Kakashi huffed, speaking in Japanese.
"Whatever Kaka-sensei" Sakura rolled her eyes.
"But anywho, whats got you in such a talkative mood lately?" He asked Sasuke who just glared at his sensei.
"I'm not talking more then usual. You two are just imagining it"
"No we're not" Sakura insisted "you are much more talkative then you have ever been"
"I agree" Kakashi smiled "also, it was nice of you to talk to Naruto earlier"
Sasuke glared at him "I didn't have much of a choice, he wasn't going to leave till I said something"
"Is that so" Kakashi said while pushing his two students away from each other, making a space between them for him to sit.
"Where is Naruto anyway?" Ron asked.
"In the common room" Sasuke replied "or looking for Hinata"
"Our little Naruto is growing up" Kakashi smiled.
"Careful Kakashi-sensei, people might start to think that you actually care" Sasuke said.
"I do so care!" Kakashi pouted "you know that I care for the three of you" he added in Japanese.
"And you know that we care about you" Sakura said with a grin.
"And that, Sakura, is why your my favorite" he said playfully.
Sasuke raised his eyebrow "and whys that?" he asked curiously.
"Because she gives out comments that make you warm and fuzzy, plus shes not as annoying as you and Naruto" Kakashi laughed.
"Whatever" both Sasuke and Sakura sighed.
"Hate to interrupt but class starts in 10 minutes" Hermione spoke up.
"Better get going then. Don't want you two to start copying me" Kakashi winked at his students.
Before he could 'poof' away, Sakura said "We love you in a student-teacher, child-parent, non-sexual kinda way"
(Divination)
"This should be interesting" Sakura sighed "wanna bet that our deaths will be predicted?"
"I hope I get eaten by some huge creature!" Naruto said enthusiastically.
"Naruto-kun w-why would you want t-to be eaten by s-some creature?" Hinata asked.
"Cause it would be interesting" he grinned at the girl who sat across from him at the two person table.
"Amusing to watch" Sasuke muttered, low enough that Naruto didn't hear.
"Hes already been eaten by large creatures. On numerous occasions" Sakura reminded him.
"Thats true"
"Afternoon class" Professor Trelawney said in her usual unusual voice "today we will be ready tea leaves"
(10-15 minutes later)
"Alright Sasuke, apparently you will die within this month and it will be by drowning" Sakura reported, passing the text book to Sasuke.
"Nice to know" he replied.
"So I guess you wont be allowed near water this month" Sakura laughed.
"Yes well, according to this, you will die within two days in the hands of someone you trust"
"What?" she took the book from him "well thats unsettling" she muttered.
"Hn, remember this stuff is more or less fake, so you have nothing to worry about" Sasuke more or less reassured her.
(With Naruto and Hinata)
"Naruto-kun this says y-your secret will b-be reveled within the c-coming months" Hinata said.
"Oh?" Naruto questioned "doesn't sound to good, lets check yours"
(10 minutes later)
"Hinata-chan, you will gain great courage and achieve a dream" Naruto smiled "you have a good one" he smiled at her.
Hinata willed herself not to faint and smiled back at her crush.
"You two are lucky" Sakura said. She came to see what her two friends had in stored for them in the future.
"How so Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked.
"Both Sasuke-kun and I are apparently going to die this month" she smiled "while you both have the complete opposite"
"What?" Naruto more or less yelled.
"Don't yell dobe" Sasuke said, hitting Naruto on the head.
"I will if I want to" Naruto pouted.
(Gryffindor common room, midnight)
Sakura was seated on the sofa in front of the fire, reading a book about medical nin-jutsu. She had just gotten back from a quick patrol around the school halls, but wasn't tired enough to go to bed.
She was enjoying the peace and quite. Since they had come to Hogwarts, she hadn't been able to simply be by herself.
But now she had the perfect moment to do so.
"You should be sleeping" Sasuke's voice spoke from the shadows.
"As should you" Sakura replied, not even looking up from the book.
Sasuke came and sat next to her.
"Its midnight you know" he said.
"I am aware" Sakura replied.
"Why are you up?" Sasuke asked after a few minutes of silence.
"Not tired enough to sleep" she stated. Glancing at Sasuke who was staring at the fire.
"Why are you up?" she questioned.
"Couldn't sleep with Naruto snoring" he closed his eyes.
"Fair enough" Sakura laughed, closing the book.
She may not have been tired before but now she was fighting to keep herself from yawning.
"Your tired" Sasuke commented when he noticed her silently yawn.
"Just a little"
"Hn"
They sat in silence. Both shinobi were watching the fire.
After 10 or so minutes, Sasuke felt weight on this shoulder.
He smiled when he saw that Sakura had fallen asleep, and he was now her pillow.
Sasuke stayed still, contemplating whether he should move or not. After a few minutes he decided against it and casually put his arm around Sakura's shoulders. And rested his head on top of hers.
Before he knew it had fallen into a comfortable dreamless sleep.
