A/N- Okay, I'm back! Yes, I realize I haven't updated in a few days and I'm sorry for that. Thank you to all of the kind reviewers. "Quack" = Line break (I felt like changing it up a bit ^.^"
Warnings: femnaru, slight cursing
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto... a little piece of me just died inside :'[
Naruto's eyebrow twiched and she leaned away from Sasuke, "What did you say?..."
Sasuke was confused, had she not heard him? "I, uh, said that you're not alone."
"He thinks I need his pity? I know that there are people out there with harder lives than me. Like Gaara! I shouldn't be crying like a wimp! I can't believe that I am so weak..." Naruto unhooked her fingers from Sasuke's shirt and stood, "I'm sorry for being a nuisance. It won't happen again." She jumped from the tall tree and made her way back into the house.
Sasuke sat for a long time, staring in the direction Naruto had left... What just happened? One moment she was crying, then the next she is cold and stand off-ish. Was it the kiss? Sasuke groaned and let his head fall into his hands. He felt the unyielding urge to bash his head against a wall multiple times.
Quack (Line Break)
Sakura was sitting at the table in the dining room, Tsunami had just served breakfast. That reminded Sakura about how early they had woken up this morning, 4:00 am. Never again. She was soooo tired! Haku was chatting animatedly to her about...something... She sighed, bored when she noticed a silent Naruto slip upstairs to their room. She smiled, hoping that Sasuke had "made the move". Sakura quickly chased after the blonde with lit eyes.
When she reached the room she noticed Naruto was exiting through the window to the roof. "What's going on?" Sakura, oblivious to Naruto's bad mood, questioned.
Naruto menatally cursed not paying attention to her surroundings and put a smile on her face. "Oh, hey Sakura. I was just going to the roof for some fresh air." Her voice didn't betray her, luckily.
Sakura bounded next to her, intent on getting the story of what happened between the two. "Can I join you?"
Naruto mentally sighed, never breaking her smile and replied, "Sure."
They both settled into a relaxed laying down position when Sakura decided to voice the question that had been itching in her mouth from the beginning. "So, what happened after I left?"
Naruto didn't appear fazed and smoothly said, "Well, he finally made it to the top and then I decided to come back to the house."
"...I see." Sakura's brow furrowed. "Dammit Sasuke! What part of 'make a move' does he not understand?"
Neither spoke for a while, just enjoying the sounds of birds when Kakashi poofed onto the roof. "Ah, so this is where you were."
"Yup." Both girls said simultaneously.
Kakashi blinked, they've been hanging out with each other too much.
Quack
Sasuke finally entered the house after god knows how long, and saw that everybody was eating dinner.
"Glad you could join us, Sasuke." Kakashi eye smiled as he ate rice with his mask still on.
"Hn." Was all Sasuke said (grunted) as he sat in the only available chair next to Sakura.
Sasuke ate silently as the others talked amongst themselves. He then felt a stare on him and looked left at Sakura.
Sasuke narrowed his eyes at her, "What?" he hissed quietly.
This got Naruto's attention, but she stayed silent and listened, not wanting them to realize that she was eaves dropping.
"You know what!" Sakura hissed back, "Why didn't you tell her."
Sasuke glared at the pinkette, "I did." he muttered turning back to his food.
Sakura sat straighter in her chair and turned her head to Naruto, who seemed to be in an animated conversation with Haku. She knew, however, that Naruto was a wild card, expect the unexpected. "How cliche..." Sakura looked back at the boy and gave him a look that said "We'll discuss this later."
Sasuke scowled, he was definitely in a bad (horrible) mood, and stood excusing himself from the table.
He wordlessly walked to his room and shut the door quietly. That urge to hit his head on a wall resurfaced, but he quickly quenched it and slid under the covers of his fuuton, hoping sleep would relieve him of his turmoil
A/N- Sigh~ This chapter was so difficult to write! I'm sorry it's so short, this is actually the third rewrite. And yes, I decided that Naruto had already met Gaara, this will be important for the chuunin exams. (I don't know if I'll even write that far into the story. I plan on writing a sequal and the chuunin exams might go in there.)
Quack...
