CHAPTER TEN – Love Me, You Dirty Shizno

"Who do you love, Sasuke-kun?"

"Ino-Sama…I love Ino-Sama…" Sasuke chanted to her. Ino smirked deviously as she snuggled into a ball. Sasuke lay beside her; pulling her as close as possible and with his knees tucked under hers. Well he attempted to; but their bodies did not fit perfectly.

When Ino became tired of the discomfort, she made her way out of his bed.

"I've got work to do today at the flowershop. You are to come with me."

"Yes Ino-sama," said the prince in monotone. She smiled and left for the bathroom. Sasuke proceeded to use another bathroom down the hall.

An hour had passed before the two made their way to outside the castle. There, Mikoto was giving a lecture to one of her guards, until she saw her son and Ino with interlocked arms.

"What is going on here?" She asked and approached the two demons. Ino was smiling giddily and Sasuke was just standing there with the usual bored expression. Ino giggled.

"We're an item now!" She announced cheerfully. Mikoto was taken back by the news. She smiled and nodded; acknowledging their sudden item. Sasuke looked up into the eyes of his mother.

A sting pierced her heart as she saw the look upon his face. He did not know what he was doing. In fact, he looked more upset than anything else did. Mikoto looked at Ino and saw how happy she was. Didn't she deserve this? After all the things, she had been put through; didn't she deserve the chance to be happy? And what of Sasuke though? Was it really worth forcing her son to love someone who he did not? No one pushed that on her, Mikoto. She chose to love…him. The Devil. Satan. Her beloved Fugaku; his human name.

Mikoto opened her mouth to speak, but her son and Ino had already left.

'Sasuke-chan…What have I done to you?'

"Ohayou! Ino-san!" Sakura cheerfully greeted her best friend. Ino smiled and greeted back.

"Ohayou, Sakura. What brings you here today?"

"Well I thought I'd give you a little visit is all. So have you seen Sasuke-kun yet? I want to ask him something."

Before Ino could answer, the prince appeared from behind Sakura.

"I'm right here." Sakura jumped, but at the same time grabbed him in a tight hug.

"Sasuke-kun! Ohayou! There's something really important I need to ask you…"

"Hold on a sec," Sasuke pushed her away and walked over to Ino. He moved right in on her personal space; their faces but centimeters apart.

"And good morning to you…boku no saiai…" Sasuke kissed Ino's lips. Ino giggled. Sakura could help but stare. Just what was going on here!

'WHAAAT?! How dare he!!! That worthless-two-timing asswipe! How dare he just march in here and kiss Ino; in front of us!' Inner Sakura was beyond the term 'pissed off'.

"Now, now Inner-chan. There must be a logical explanation for this……" Sakura said to the inner one, trying to sound like she had confidence in her beloved. The kiss was broken by Sasuke as he turned to Sakura.

"What was it that you wanted to ask me?"

"Well…That is…I…"

'JUST LET IT OUT GOD DAMN IT!!!' Sakura's eyes turned red.

"HOW COULD YOU?!?! YOU SELF RIGHTOUS, EGOTISTACAL, EMO-WANNABE TWO-TIMING PIECE OF—YOU DIRTY SHIZNO!!!"

Sasuke twitched. In hell, calling someone a 'shizno' was just as bad as being called an 'angel'. Shizno was not part of any human language. In fact, it was a word derived from a mixture of the Kaepscinomed (demon language) and an ancient language the angels once spoke. Although now they only speak human languages.

There was no equivalent in the English language for the word shizno. The word itself was a noun. But to put it in a term, it would be the defecation of an excrement of Earth's foulest animal.

In a simpler term, 'a skunk's shit's shit.' Yes, once the skunk takes a dump, the shit does it's own shit; thus creating a 'shizno'.

Ino was surprised that Sakura new that word. It was such a foul word, the human curses seemed like kind words. She did not expect someone with dignity like Sakura to use such language.

"What did you say?" Sasuke stepped forward; giving his death glare, but sustaining himself from actually using the power.

"You heard me you shizno. How dare you toy with my emotions! So I guess it was all fun and games wasn't it?! Let's make Sakura think the guy she's falling in love with make her think he returns the feelings, then totally crush her with one kiss! I bet you were in on this too, weren't you?!!!" Sakura was fumigating. Her yells scared away potential customers; one of whom changed the 'OPEN' sign to 'CLOSED'.

Sasuke was most certainly not used to anyone standing up to him. No one he ever knew had the guts to speak to him in such a loud and vulgar manner. Truth be told, he liked it.

'Sakura…It's your turn to return the favour. I have no control over myself…Save me from this…Save me from myself…'

It was true really. Sasuke had no control over his will, body, and voice. All he could do was sit back in his mind, and watch his body bend under the will of a curse. All he could do was control his thoughts; nothing more.

"I can't believe I actually admitted my feelings for you, and you do this to me! You know what?! I HATE YOU!!! I WISHED YOU NEVER SAVED ME!!! BEING GANG-RAPED WOULD'VE BEEN BETTER THAN HAVING MY HEART TORN APART LIKE THIS!!!!!! I HATE YOOOUUU!!!" Sakura ran out the shop; leaving the two demons speechless.

Without thinking, Sasuke put his hand to his chest, and felt something strange. He looked down his shirt and saw the necklace given to him by Sakura. He held the tiny jewelry in his hand.

It all came back. How Sakura told him she liked him, and how he said he was not one to admit his feelings, but made an exception for her and her alone. It was then and there that Ino's little curse broke.
