Chapter 7

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto…just Ai

Warning: A smug of romance and drama

"Well I hope I don't catch you two doing something during basketball practice, now go and get lunch." Kakashi demanded Sasuke and me.

We were both walking down to hallway to the lunch room when Sasuke said,

"About what happen today…" I blushed bright red. I remember that.

"Yeah?" I asked him. He stopped walking. I stopped too and looked at him in confusion.

"It never happened." He then started walking again.

/Well I don't care, he is a bastard anyway. I can't believe I kissed him/

I just stood there. I looked like an idiot too! Some students walked past me and waved. But I was just staring straight in front of me.

/Hello? Rin/

No answer.

I sighed and walked into the cafeteria. I got pizza and orange soda. Okay, I gave up milk…just for today of course! I walked over to my gang.

"Hey." Sakura said as I walked up to them.

"Sup?" I asked.

"Nothing much. Just bored during art class."

"Yeah, bugging me and Ino-chan!" Tenten complained. I giggled. I wasn't going to tell them about what happened to me and Sasuke. I was actually listening to what he said.

"It never happened."

/But it did happen. And it was huge! I just want to make them jealous/

"I have to go or Kakashi Sensei will get mad at me." I told the girls.

"Bye!" they all yelled as they waved to me. I smirked and walked back to the ISS room.

ZzZ

"I really hate to go out for coffee." Kakashi said at random during the second half of my work.

"Just go!" I complained, "Nothing will happen. Leave the door open for all I care."

"Okay. But I will make another person watch you." Both Sasuke and I sighed in annoyance. That was one thing! And like it would happen ever again! And he can't even trust me…

A student walked by the door.

"Wait!" Kakashi yelled. I looked over at Sasuke. He was doing his work. I sighed and pushed play on my I Pod.

Kiba walked in and I dropped my I Pod, making it disconnect and the music turn off.

"He will watch you guys till I get back." Kakashi told Sasuke and me.

"But I have to get to English." Kiba complained.

"I will write you a late pass."

"Cool!" Kiba sat on the chair and looked at me. Kakashi walked out the room and shut the door.

I was doing my work till I couldn't take it anymore.

"Gah! Why doesn't he trust us?" I complained and yelled.

"What?" Kiba asked.

"Well you started it." Sasuke told me as he glanced at me. Anger shot threw me.

/I started it? I STARTED IT! He was the one who leaned closer to me, kissed me, and knocked me to the ground. Okay, so I pulled him back on me, that is it/

"I started it? I STARTED IT!" I yelled at him.

"Start what? The fight?" Kiba asked.

"No. It wasn't that fight." I looked over at Sasuke, "Why don't you tell him?"

Sasuke sighed in annoyance.

"Ai kissed me." Sasuke told Kiba.

"I kissed you! Excuse me! I hate you! You kissed me."

"Then why did you want more?" I blushed. Kiba leaned in closer to listen to this. It must have gotten interesting with him.

"You kissed me, you pushed me down."

"You asked for tongue."

"Oh." Kiba said. I threw my packet at him.

"You stay out of this!" I warned Kiba, "You started it; you leaned closer to me and started to kiss me. I don't care if I asked for tongue cause that was after the fact that you kissed me!"

Kakashi walked back into the room.

"Aw, the fun is over." Kiba complained.

"Here is a late pass." Kakashi said to Kiba while handed Kiba a yellow slip. Kiba sighed in annoyance and dragged his feet out of the room.

Kakashi sat down and picked up my packet from the floor.

"Um Miss Ai…why is your packet on the floor?" Kakashi asked me.

"Um…I was annoyed at Kiba." I told him.

ZzZ

During work I heard a voice.

Go out for the play

I smirked.

/Well look at what the cat dragged in…oops…/

Like I said…Go out for the play!

/Why? I want to do basketball/

Look, guys wont ask you out if you are better then them

/You have a point/

Then do the play. Your singing teacher said you have a voice like an angel. Do the play and guys will be begging you to go out with them!

/Even Naruto/

Um…sure! And even Sasuke.

/Shut up about him! I hate him/

Okay! Okay! But you kissed him.

/Shut the fuck up/

It was silent. I knew what I wanted to do. I raised my hand.

"What?" Kakashi asked me.

"Um…I am not going to do basketball." I told Kakashi. Kakashi and Sasuke both gasped.

"But why?"

"It…just…I am not going to basketball. That's it."

"Um…okay."

I could just hear my family say,

Deception.

Disgrace.

I shed a tear. I raised my hand again.

"Yes?" I heard Kakashi ask.

"Can I go to the bathroom?" I asked. Kakashi nodded. I ran out of the room and into the yellow colored bathroom.

I went into a stall, the bathroom was empty.

The words rang in my head after I said I wasn't going to do basketball.

Deception.

Disgrace.

I started to cry.

ZzZ

It has been twenty minutes and I was calming down in the bathroom. Why was I like this? It was just a sport. But it was a tradition. For six generations for both mom and dad's side.

I was fine now and looked at my self in the mirror. I looked like a mess. I wanted my hair cut and dyed a different color. I was chubby. I was weak. I am not the same since my parents got divorced. I am a mess. I am sick. I am lonely…

ZzZ

I walked back into the ISS room. I covered my eyes with my bangs so it doesn't look like I was crying and looked straight at my work and wrote.

"It took you long enough." Kakashi said to me.

"Famine problems." I lied.

"Speaking of-"

"Ew!"

"No! I have to go to the bathroom." Kakashi looked at the door for about a minute and sighed in annoyance.

"What wrong?" I asked, still looking at my paper.

"I have to go pee! I will just go! Don't you guys do anything." Kakashi warned us. He walked out of the room.

"It wasn't famine problems…was it?" Sasuke asked me once Kakashi left. I looked up at him, without the bangs in my eyes. My eyes were wet, and so was my face. My eyes were puffy and red. Sasuke jumped a little.

"Jeez." He said.

"I know." I started crying a little bit, "I hate myself!"

"Don't say that." I looked at Sasuke in confusion.

"What?"

"At least you have your parents."

"Oh! I never knew."

"Well now you do." I looked down at my paper.

"I know how it feels to lose someone."

"Hn?"

"I lost my little sister when she was just five. Only five."

"That is when I lost both of my parents."

"That must have been worse. You were so little."

"Well-"

"I thought, well…I was hearing from everyone else all these stories about you. You seem perfect, you are rich, the number one basketball player, popular…I hated you…"

"Um…hated?"

"But you have it worse then me. I shouldn't be mad at you. But that still doesn't mean you're not a bastard."

"And you're a bitch."

Sasuke went up to me and peck me on the lips. I blushed bright red. He kissed me…again? He walked back to his seat and went back to his work. I did too.

Cha! You kissed him again!

/Okay…he kissed me. I was a peck. And I feel sorry for him…/

ZzZ

It was after school and I was still packing up to leave. Kakashi left and Sasuke was still there. I guess I wasn't walking with Naruto home. I sighed in annoyance. Then I realized something. Today was basketball tryout, they started in twenty minutes. That is why Sasuke is still here. And Kakashi should be in the gym.

Sasuke went up to me.

"And what happen today-" Sasuke begun.

"I know! I know! It never happened. Bastard…" I complained.

"No…I liked it." Sasuke pecked me on the lips again.

"What? Don't you want to keep it a secret?"

"Well since Kiba heard us fight…I think that wouldn't be a secret."

"Oh." I finished packing.

"And you should try out for basketball."

"What?"

"You heard me." Sasuke walked out of the room. I smiled. He wasn't that bad…without his friends around of course.

I walked into the gym and saw Kakashi. He was the only one in the gym.

"I guess you are trying out for basketball?" he asked me.

"Yep." I nodded. I walked into the girls' locker room and put on red shorts and a white tank top.

I walked back into the gym. Naruto and Kiba were stretching. Naruto waved at me and Kiba just smirked.

"Hey Cat Women." Kiba said. I frowned at him.

"You told everyone didn't you?" I asked Kiba.

"Told everyone what?" Naruto asked.

/Oh crap! So he didn't tell anyone! SHIT/

"You told me to butt out." Kiba told me.

"Told everyone what?" Naruto repeated. They both stopped stretching.

"Oh nothing." I sighed in relief.

Gaara, Sasuke and another boy come out. He looked like a older version of Sasuke.

"Nothing what?" The older Sasuke asked.

"Oh nothing Itachi." Naruto said. Even though he didn't know either. Itachi stared at me. Then whispered something to Sasuke.

"I know!" Sasuke yelled at him.

"I'm Ai." I told Itachi.

"I know, I heard. I'm Itachi. Sasuke's older brother." Itachi introduced. They had to be related! They looked so much alike.

"Now, what is the nothing?" Gaara asked.

"Nothing!" I yelled.

"Come on. Kakashi isn't here." Naruto pleaded to Kiba.

"Why are you asking me?" Kiba asked. He went over to Sasuke and pulled him right next to me, "Ask them!"

The guys started at us.

"What are you guys talking about?" Sasuke asked. I leaned closer to him. Cover my mouth to the side, so the guys couldn't read lips.

"It is about us. You know." I whispered. Sasuke did the same and whispered back,

"I don't know."

"About the kiss."

"Oh. What we argued about when Kiba was in the room?" I nodded.

"I am not saying it."

"Either am I."

"We can't say it isn't anything if we keep whispering."

"Hello?" Itachi asked impatiently.

"Okay! Okay! I will say it!" I gulped, "Me and Sasuke kissed. The end."

"And there was tongue." Kiba added.

"Kiba!"

"Oh!" the boys, except Sasuke and Kiba, said. Kakashi walked in.

"Okay. We are going to run around the gym." Kakashi ordered.

"It is just like gym." I complained.

ZzZ

A tiring day of drills and running was over! Kakashi asked to see me before I left.

"I want you to be captain." Kakashi told me.

"I can tell Kakashi Sensei that you can be captain."

/Oh yeah, goodbye fame. But I always keep my promises/

"Um…thanks Kakashi Sensei. But I don't want to be captain. Sasuke can." I told him.

"Is that because you kissed him and he wants to be captain?"

"No! It's just…I promised him that he could. Before I kissed him!" Kakashi sighed.

"Fine. But can you be co-captain?"

"Co-captain? Sure!" I smiled and went into the girls' locker room and got changed back into my uniform.

ZzZ

While I was walking out of the school I saw Sasuke and Naruto hanging out. I smiled and walked over to them.

"Hey Sasuke. Your captain. I'm co." I told him. Sasuke leaned closer to me but I moved away. He looked at me in confusion.

"So, we will practice every Saturday."

"Sure."

"What to practice tomorrow? At three."

"Yep. Meet you here in front of the school. Naruto lets go home."

"Sure." Naruto said.

ZzZ

We were both walking home when I told him,

"That kiss meant nothing."

"What?" Naruto asked puzzled.

"The kiss I had with Sasuke."

"Oh."

"And tomorrow my parents are getting together for their anniversary."

"I thought your mom is engaged?"

"Well one day every year my parents get together for breakfast."

"Cool."

"I don't go though. I don't want to hear them yell."

ZzZ

I was now Saturday when I was at my dad's apartment. The clock hit 8 and my father had ten minutes left till he had to go and pick up mother. The phone rang and I picked it up.

"Hello?" I asked.

"You got ISS?" I heard an angry voice yell at me.

"Oh, hey mom. And yes."

"You are grounded for two months. No computer, no TV, no phone."

"No phone? Okay." I hung up the phone.

"What was that about?" my father asked.

"Oh. I am just grounded from the phone."

The phone rang.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Don't hang up on me! And since you are fourteen…I have to tell you something. The reason that you are your father got divorced wasn't from the money…it was…I was having an affair."

"What? How could you? Is dad not perfect?"

"He isn't honey! And he had sex with a twenty year old woman in the back of his car last week okay! He isn't great or perfect."

"Go to hell!" I hung up the phone and started crying.

"What is wrong?" my father asked.

"Just pick up my mom and go away you pervert!"

"What?"

"You fuck a twenty year old in your car!"

"Listen-"

"No! Go!" my father picked me up off the ground by my collar.

"Don't you dare talk to me that way." My father threw me to the ground and walked out the door.

(A/N: true…)

ZzZ

The clock hit ten and I was getting ready to practice with Sasuke. There was a knock at my door. I answered it.

It was two police men.

"Are you related to Mr. and Mrs. Coddington in some way?" one police man asked me. I nodded in worry.

"I am their only daughter, why do you ask?" I asked them.

"I'm sorry. Your parents were killed by a car crash." I shed a tear.
