'….' – Thoughts

"…..." – Speaking


Chapter 7

No One's POV

'…..Is this guy for real?' came the first thought in Sakura's mind.

'He's even more handsome than the best male model Ino showed us last week in the magazine!' exclaimed her inner voice.

'It's that pink haired girl' thought Sasuke. It's not that he gets to see pink haired girl always, so he remembered her. 'Is that real…..?' he thought, directing his gaze at her hair.

Both their thoughts were interrupted when they heard the other voice. "Sorry, miss, sir! But this is the last batch….." said an employee pointing towards the tomatoes.

He continued as both looked at him, "It'll take some time to…" but he was interrupted as both, Sasuke and Sakura spoke at the same time. "I'll take it!" both Sasuke and Sakura exclaimed. The employee sweat dropped as Sasuke and Sakura glared at each other as if telling each other to back off.

Sakura sighed. "Look mister. I really don't have time and so I'm taking it!" she said and started putting the tomatoes in a bag.

"No. I want them" stated Sasuke, monotonously.

Ignoring, Sakura took the bag and without glancing at him, started to turn around. 'Hmph! As if I'm gonna give him!' she thought.

Sasuke frowned. No one dares to ignore him! And more importantly, girls flaunt over him! Not that he enjoyed it… He would have let her keep them if she had asked politely. Sasuke grabbed the bag which made Sakura stop.

Sakura glared at him. "What is your problem?! Some people are really busy here!" she exclaimed and pointed towards herself. She snatched the bag from his grasp. Sasuke had an urge to roll his eyes at that.

"Hn. Don't make me repeat myself" said Sasuke. 'Tsk, annoying' he thought.

Seeing her glaring at him, he smirked. 'What is he smirking at?' thought Sakura and frowned at him. She clutched the bag securely near her chest as if it was the most precious thing.

'He looks cool like that, doesn't he?' chirped her inner self.

Sasuke sweat dropped at her actions and sighed. 'Whatever… I'll just take oranges….' He then extended is hand up again.

'What's he doing?! He wouldn't dare, would he?' she thought to herself. As he was standing in front of her, she took it the wrong way. She glared at him.

"What are you doing?! You Pervert!" Sakura half yelled at him and walked past him. She stuck her tongue out at him as she reached the corner and left. Sasuke just blinked at that.

Sasuke stood there, his hand extended in air, thinking 'What a strange girl. And that PINKY called me a pervert! Is she out of her mind?!' and reached for oranges. 'Atleast she didn't kept staring at me like other girls'. He shook his head and smirked.

"Oranges? I thought you were having 'your' tomatoes, Otouto. I guess Naruto is rubbing off on you….." said Itachi, approaching Sasuke and smirked. Sasuke glared at him and changed his thought of buying oranges. 'Whatever'

"Let's go boys! I got what I wanted!" exclaimed Mikoto with some bags.

"Of course, Kaa-san!" said Itachi, as he took the bags from Mikoto and smiled. He asked, "What are these bags for, Kaa-san?"

Mikoto smiled back and walked ahead of the two, replying, "Ah, just some things I need for the boutique". Itachi dumped half of the bags at Sasuke and smirked. Sasuke glared at him again but took the bags anyway and followed.

'Tsk, annoying'


Next day…

Sakura's office…

'Ahh! This is too much work!' whined Sakura in her mind. She backed away in her seat and sighed.

'Who wanted promotion, huh? The higher the position, the more work you get' Inner Sakura taunted her.

'Well, at least, I get a good pay!' Sakura replied back, thinking positively.

'That's great! Keep thinking like that!' Inner Sakura commented, haughtily.

She has been busy these days. Many people are asking for her suggestions and recommendations. Some even came for recruitments. 'Well, isn't it great? This way, I can help some people who are in need. I guess there are some more vacancies which are still need to be filled' she thought.

'Just stop thinking and start working!' exclaimed her inner self.

'Okay, okay! Geez! No need to be so rude!' Sakura replied back and sighed, opening her next file.


Lunch Break…

"Hey, I heard that Karin's interview will be published in tomorrow's magazine" Ino said, flipping her hair.

"Ohh, so who's up for reading?" asked Tenten, taking another bite from her food, sarcasm dripping from her words. Sakura and Hinata laughed at that.

"Count me out!" said Sakura as she ate her burger.

"Forehead! You might get fat if you keep that up!" exclaimed Ino as she pointed at Sakura's burger. Sakura rolled her eyes at that. Tenten and Hinata sighed. 'There she goes…'

"Hey, guys? Let's go for movie tonight. What you say?" asked Tenten, just as they finish their food.

"It's a good idea! We haven't done it for a while" said Hinata, smiling.

"Sounds like a plan! Let's meet up at seven!" exclaimed Ino, more excitedly.

"Hmm, sure!" agreed Sakura.

"Well, you don't have any plans with Sasuke-san, right Forehead?" asked Ino. All three looked at Sakura.

"Nah… He's very busy!" replied Sakura and laughed nervously, waving her hand awkwardly. 'They are still into it?! It's good that I told them to keep it a secret though' thought Sakura and sweat dropped. They nodded their heads in understanding and left for their work.

"Okay! Now, Hinata and I'll get the snacks and Tenten and Ino get the tickets" said Sakura.

It was evening already and the girls made their way towards the movie theatre. They all agreed on a romantic comedy movie, much to Tenten's dismay. Both the groups went to do their corresponding tasks.


Meanwhile…

"Naruto, slow down. The movie is not gonna start anytime soon" said Sasuke as he walked behind Naruto, through the crowd.

"But we have to buy tickets! Come on! That's the cool action movie I was waiting for!" exclaimed Naruto. Sasuke rolled his eyes. "Hey! Is that Hinata!" yelled Naruto as he looked ahead.

"What are you doing, dobe?" asked Sasuke looking at Naruto. But now there was no sight of Hinata.

"I thought I saw…never mind. Let's go!" said Naruto as he shook the thought of seeing Hinata. Little did he know that it was really Hinata he saw just now.


(Time skip) After the movie…..

"That was so romantic!" exclaimed Ino and continued, "That scene was so romantic when he proposed her! Ahh…" with a dreamy look.

"I bet she's thinking herself in place of the actress in that scene" muttered Sakura to Tenten. Tenten laughed and Hinata giggled.

"I heard that Forehead!" said Ino, narrowing her eyes at Sakura.

"Now let's not fight here guys!" Hinata cut in, smiling at them.

"Well, I'm too tired to do that now" said Sakura and they all laughed.

"Let's go have some food! How about that café?" said Tenten as she pointed a café across the street few meters away. They walked towards the café when Sakura stopped abruptly getting others attention.

"Well, I just remembered! I need to buy medicine for Baa-chan! It's just around that the corner. You guys go ahead" said Sakura.

"Wait, Sakura-chan, I'm coming with you!" said Hinata.

"Okay! Don't be long! We'll order food for you both!" said Ino as she and Tenten walked ahead.


"That was some cool action!" exclaimed Naruto.

"You already said that ten times" said Sasuke, walking ahead of Naruto.

"Did I? Anyways, how was it?" asked Naruto, grinning.

"And that, seven times, Dobe" Sasuke pointed out and sighed, "And why did you dragged me along?"

Naruto laughed. "It's the fourth time you asked that. And the answer is the same. Because, Itachi said so. Time for some ramen!" replied Naruto. Sasuke sighed again and walked ahead followed by Naruto.

As they turned around the corner, Sasuke paused and smirked at the scene in front of him. He was slightly surprised as it was unexpected. He watched Sakura punching a guy on the cheek. The other guy was already down clutching his gut.

'Amusing' he thought as his smirk widen.

"Well, if it isn't Pinky…" he said.

Hinata stood there with a look of bewilderment and a little afraid.

"How dare you! Shannaro!" Sakura yelled.

"Hinata-chan! Sakura-chan!" yelled Naruto as he ran past Sasuke towards the girls, followed by Sasuke. The two guys made a dash as they saw the boys approach.

"Are you guys alright?!" asked Naruto frantically, as he approached them.

"Naruto-kun…..?" said both the girls as they saw him.

"That jerk! Hmph!" said Sakura, with an angry look. Naruto sweat dropped. 'She looks scary like that' thought Naruto.

"We are fine, N-Naruto-kun!" replied Hinata, now calmed down. "Sakura-chan?" continued Hinata.

Sakura answered, "I'm fine Hinata-chan! Naruto-kun… PERVERT?!" as she looked behind Naruto. Sasuke twitched at the name. Hinata looked surprised and Naruto laughed loudly.

Sasuke glared at Sakura than Naruto, "Damare!"
