Wedding
''You really do hate them?'' Neji asked and took a small bite of his sushi, and looked at Sakura, who was eating fast.
They were now sitting in a sushi restaurant, Neji treated her to eat. Everyone in the restaurant were looking at them. Because of the beauty that blooms out of them. Neji and Sakura were the only one who were this beautifull, that they always got a proposel. But of course they refused everytime. Then the proposel period stopped, becuase they have seen Sakura and Neji too often together. So the people asumed they were a couple, and somehow a rumor about them, they were going to get married soon, they were engaged, was spreading. Neji heard that rumor, but he actually didnt care what the people were saying, he just wanted his fan girls away from him, and of course sakuras fan boys away from her. Sakura didnt know anything about it. If she found out, she would go after the main person who started it, and kill that person. And thats also the second reason Neji doesnt tell sakura about the rumor.
''Yes i DO! I dont get it? Why did they have to come back. Okay i get Naruto, but why the hell does Sasuke, have to come back!'' Sakura was furious.
''ha ha ha- i like it when you get mad.'' he said and smiled.
''you like that side of me? Your weird.'' sakura said in a amused way.
''no no, i like every feeling you show out, but when you get angry, somehow it amuses me.'' he said and kept on smiling.
But what does two 'turtles dows' didnt know was, they were watched by two persons, who were following them. They saw, that Neji and Sakura, were sitting by the window. And they could see how they always smiled at each other. They got a little closer, to hear what they were talking about.
'' why in the world did you have to bring me!'' Sasuke asked in a whisper voice, to his blond idiot.
''I wanted see what was going on with those two, they looked like they were having a lot of fun together, which in my opinion is TOO MUCH FUNN!'' Naruto answered.
''where in the world could you see on them that they were having to much fun, you only saw them like 3 min. together. And you still havent answered my question, idiot?'' Sasuke really hated when Naruto dragged him to places.
''Oh come on Teme, i saw in you that you really hated them together, and that you smiled at Sakura at the ramen shop, and the Sasuke Uchiha i know, he doesnt smile at all! So im guessing that Sakura has enchanted you, with something!'' Naruto poked sasukes shoulder, and teased him with a huge grin on his face.
''whatever!'' then he turned his head, to look at the couple, in the restaurant. He looked at Sakura how sme smiled at him, he wished that it was him, she was smiling at.
''What the hell! For real?'' Sakura asked Neji with big eyes. She couldnt believe her ears.
''yup, thats right. Shikamaru, told me himself. He asked me if i wanted to be his best man for the weeding. And that surprised me, who would marry such a lazy ass as him?'' Neji said, and was laughing with Sakura.
''But whos the bride?'' Sakura need to know it ''Do i know her?'' she wa really eager to know it.
'' Of course you know her. Its Temari no Sabaku.'' He said, and took another bite of his sushi.
''Te...Mari... why didnt i guess that? I should have known it. Everytime you saw them together, they were all lovy dovy! Man! They are getting married. Who would thought that...sigh...'' she was surprised, and of course happy for the couple. But the sigh she gave, was a other mood she got.
Why did she sigh? And that sad expression. Whats with that? Sasuke tought, never leaving her sight.
''who thought that lazy guy would get married, with Gaaras sister?'' Naruto said to himself.
''Is something wrong, Sakura?'' Neji asked, with concerned voice.
''no its nothing...'' she wanted to avoid that question.
''come on, i know you too well, to see whats wrong with you.'' he took her hand, in his, and was looking at her eyes pleading, to let him inside her, to know whats going on in that head of hers.
When Sasuke saw Neji taking her hand in his. He clenched his fists, and made an angry face. He couldnt stand watching them like that. Hes never going to let go of HIS Sakura!
Naruto saw how his friend reacted when Neji took the hand. That teme, really loves Sakura. Wonder if that is the reason, why he came back, on his own. I hope Sakura will forgive him, everything he had done. Please Sakura forgive him... Naruto was hoping so much for her forgivness for him.
''its just... i will never get married...sigh...'' she said in defeat.
''thats it! I thought it was something REALLY bad. And you concern yourself about that. Sakura dont think like that, you will find a guy who will love you, care for you, hold you when you cry, sleep, everytime. Understand.'' He said to her. And was hoping she will get her hint. Neji has wanted to be that person everytime. But in a way, he is. But he wants to be more. More then a friend for her.
''i hope your right...'' she looked down, and then up at Neji, with a smile. Neji was the only male person, who could make her smile, not a 'fake sai smile' but a real one. She didnt feel alone, when she was with him. But suddenly she remembered something in the past. She remembered how she smiled for only one person, and that was Sasuke. How she loved him that time, but he never returned it back. She shook her head, she didnt want to remember that time. She has burried that feeling a long time ago.
''Your okay?'' he aksed again.
''yeah yeah! Im fine, im great!'' she smiled at him, she didnt want him to know that.
Sasuke heard how she was concerned about getting married. He wanted to be that person, that Neji described.
''So how are you handling the new guests at your house?'' Neji began with something else to talk about.
''awfull! I serious dont know how im going to handle that! I survived one dinner with them, how in the world am i going to survive more dinners with them. I'll rather want to kill myself then sit with them around a table!'' she begged for god to take her live!
''Dont say that! Your always welcome to stay at my place.'' Neji offered her. She wasent that surprised, becuase she has been sleeping over at his house alot. Thats only becuase Neji and Hinata are her best friends, of course Ino too. But those three were better friends.
Wait is she going to say yes? Please no no no no no! Sasuke thought. He really didnt want to see them living in a house together.
''okay, dude, i didnt know they were that close, that he offers her a place to stay ?'' Naruto said in a whisper.
''thank Neji, but this time i have to say no thank you. Tsunade told me, that i hadto take care of Sasuke and his friends, so they wont do anyting stupid. Like run away...'' sakura hated that job...
''okay then. If that Uchiha does anything stupid to you, you can always count me in, to beat the hell out of him!'' Neji encoureged her.
She smiled at that sentence. ''i'll remember that, i promise, but you know, that im strong enough to handle it myself.'' Sakura told him and gave him a smirk.
Like im scared of that piece of shit warning. And what does he mean by me doing anything stupid to her? Whats his problem? Sasuke thought, he really hated that jerk.
''Oh before i forget it, granfather asked me, to ask you for coming to dinner by our home...'' Sakura said.
''Of course i will come, when?''
''you can come eat with us tomorrow, granfather is in a big meeting with the elder tonight.''
''Sure i'll be there.''
''I really dont get it. I think granfather likes you a lot, too much for my opinion. I think he thinking something bad?'' Sakura was thinking hard.
''your going to be surprised when im telling you this.'' she looked at him suspisous. The guys outside the restaurant, were going a little closer, to hear more.
''your granfather asked me something out of the blue, i was surprised to hear that. You know when your granfather trains with me every friday...''
''yes yes yes i know, so come on! What did he do?'' Sakura was eager to know.
''But this time it was a little different the usual. When we held a breake, he suddenly asked me, how beautifull you were, and of course you are that,'' she blushed at that comment.
''going on, then he kept on and on and on talking about you. Not that i was complaining about it,'' she blushed again.
''But the he asked me, how you would look lovly in a wedding dress-'''
''WHAT!'' sakura broke him off. ''Why would he ask THAT?'' she was so shocked and in the same time mad at him.
''shh- Sakura. People are looking... But anyway, you would look gourges in a wedding dress i said.'' she just couldnt stop blushing when he came with those comments on her.
Those comments Sasuke didnt like. ''What hell is his problem, he keeps on coming with those comments?'' sasuke didnt think that, he actually said it aloud, so Naruto heard it, and he was surprised
''Then he suddenly said, that you and i would make a lovly wedding couple...'' then turned his head, he didnt wanted to tell her that. But somehow, she had to know that he loves her.
''he...he...he..said...that?...'' Sakura was shocked. That old man is going to hear from this, one day!
''WHAT!'' Sasuke said a little too loud, but Neji and Sakura didnt hear it, because they were too embarresd about the conversation they were having. Naruto pulled Sasuke down to shut him up.
''Do you want to get caught! Shut it teme!'' Naruto said to him in a whisper.
''Dobe...'' he was so ready to kill that bastard.
''Why? Why? Why did he had to say that?'' Sakura couldnt believe that.
''i dont know, when he said that, he was all ready to make an egangement with my family. Ha ha ha ha!'' he was laughing at that, just to make her a less concerned.
''WHAT! That old man, has nothing in his mind, then setting me up with guys! Oh hes really going to hear from me!'' She said, in a angry way ''And why the hell are you laughing like that? Thats not fun, this is sireous!''
''com'on Sakura, somehow its actually amusing, what he is doing!'' he smiled at her.
''whatever!'' she didnt want to talk about it anymore, and pounted. He just smiled when she pounted like that.
''okay, should we go, you probelply need to go back, to work, and i need to meet the hokage, for the missions complet.'' Neji said. They stood up, he paid the bill, and they hurried back where they needed to be. They gave each other a hug, before they parted their way.
Sasuke and Naruto went back, both silence when they walked home, Sakuras home...
please Sakura, forgive Sasuke, i dont like seeing him heart broken like that... Naruto thought, and saw Sasuke looking somehow sad...
