" Hidden Love"

Chapter 10 " First Date Disaster"

" What the hell? Why on Earth would you want me to do that?"

Sasuke asked Sakura as he let go of her but continued to gaze into her eyes. Sakura closed her eyes for a second while exhaling deeply then reopened them to look back at the Uchiha.

" Because it will be better for the two of us. Come on now Sasuke, I remembered back when we had detention together, you told me that you were once like me at your old school and had no friends but now, you are one of the most popular guy in school and all of the girls want to date you! Don't you like all of the attention after being ignored for so long?"

Sakura asked him. Sasuke pondered over what she mentioned and hated the fact that she was right.

" Yeah... I do truthfully. I hated it at my old school because everyone picked on me because I'm usually pretty shy and I don't like to talk a lot and the way my hair is. I had no friends and I've only had one girl friend in my life but she ended up using me. She made a bet with her other friends that she could break my heart and she did. I was in loved with her and I thought she really liked me but then she ended up dumping me and told me about the bet."

Sasuke said with a tint of sadness in his voice. Sakura took noticed of his change of voice and placed her hand above his, making him look up to her after staring at the floor for a while.

" You see! You do want the popularity while I want the complete opposite. If we started dating, everyone will probably pick on me even more and they will do that to you too or it will make me popular and I don't want ether of them."

Sakura continued to speak while Sasuke took another sip of his glass of water.

" Sasuke, you are lucky that you haven't discovered the dark side of being popular trust me. They act like they are your best friends and want what is best for you but if you make one mistake all of it goes away and instead, they go against you and make your life a living hell."

" And that is what happened at your old school." Sasuke stated while watching Sakura nod her head.

" You know you can be friends with people without them finding out about Maynard." Sasuke said.

" No I can't, basically I don't have much of a life outside of school because I ether go to work or take care of my son. I can't have people over and Tsunade is busy as it is and I hate having her watch him when I'm not working." Sakura explained to Sasuke.

" I don't even get to act like a normal teenager. I haven't even been to the movies since I was 13. How pathetic is that?" Sakura asked him, starting to get a little frustrated.

" Really?"

" Yeah..." Sakura admitted . Sasuke then stood up from his seat and took one of Sakura's hands and pulled her up also.

" Sasuke? What are you doing?" Sakura asked as Sasuke began walking to her front door, with her hand still being held by Sasuke's.

" You said you haven't been to the movies since you were 13 so that is what we are doing right now since Maynard is still with Tsunade." Sasuke explained as he opened up the door.

" Wait I need my purse and my cell phone and let Tsunade where we are going!"

Sakura said then Sasuke let go of her hand and watched her go into her room and reappearedafter a minute with her purse.

" Okay now I'll just call Tsunade while on our way over there." Sakura said as they walked out of the door and went into Sasuke's car.

" Why don't we just knock on her door instead of calling her?" Sasuke asked while turning on his car then noticed Sakura coming closer to his side.

" Well I figured the two of us can go on our first date alone together and I know if I go next door, he will want to come with us, but if you want him to come with us, I'll go get him."

Sakura teased the male as she began to back away from him but was pulled closer to him by his hand taking a light grab on her arm and gave her a kiss on the tip of her nose.

" Naw I think the two of us will be just fine." Sasuke said as he let go of the girl while smirking and started to drive off.

Once they got there, they were waiting in line, trying to figure out what movie to go see.

" So Sakura, since you haven't been to the movies in so long, what would you like to see?" Sasuke asked her then Sakura looked up to see the different choices she had.

" Hey Sasuke, can we go see " Friday The 13th"? Sakura asked him.

" Hn."

Sasuke responded and when it was there turn in line, he asked for two tickets for the movie. The person waiting on them handed over their tickets and they walked inside the building.

" Sasuke, you didn't have to pay for me... I could of paid for myself you know." Sakura whined at him as he ignored her complaints.

" Your annoying." Sasuke responded as he handed her one of the tickets.

" Thanks Sasuke, hey I have to go use to restroom real quick, can you wait for me right here?"

Sakura asked and smiled when she saw him nod his head and went into the women's restroom.

After he saw her disappear in the room he heard someone call out his name. He turned around and saw shock to see Naruto, Ino, Neji, and Temari walking up to him.

" What are you doing here Sasuke?" Neji asked the male.

" I'm going to see a movie." Sasuke stated as he kept his on the bathroom, waiting for Sakura to pop out.

" Cool. What movie are you going to see Sasuke?" Ino asked him.

" Friday The 13th." Sasuke said.

" Yeah we are too." Ino said with excitement in her voice.

Sakura emerged from the bathroom a minute later and stopped immediately and was shocked to see Sasuke standing with his friends from school. She looked up at the teen who she came with and noticed his eyes gazing at hers. Sakura had to think of something to do so she started walking behind a pillar so the others wouldn't see her. She let out her breath then heard her name, making her tense up. She looked over and relaxed when she saw Sasuke's older brother, Itachi with a friend of his.

" Itachi. What are you doing here?"

" Well the same reason as you of course, to watch a movie." Itachi responded.

" Who is this young lady Itachi?" Kisame, his friend asked him before putting some popcorn in his mouth.

" Sakura, this is Kisame, my friend. This is Sakura Kisame, she is a very special friend to my brother, by the way I thought he was supposed to be hanging out with you today?" Itachi rose an eyebrow at the pink haired girl.

" Well I am... well I was, he's here but while I was in the women's restroom, Naruto and his friends showed up and we can't be seen together." Sakura informed them about the situation.

" Well you are in luck that me and Kisame are here. Let's go rescue my little brother but now Sakura just go with the flow okay? Just pretend that you and me are on a date." Itachi said as he began to walk ahead to his brother.

" His... date?" Sakura asked out loud and turned to Kisame who stood by her and shook his head and they both started to follow him.

" So Sasuke, how about since it looks like you are all alone here, you come sit with us." Naruto came up with the idea while everyone agreed.

" Um..." Sasuke began but was cut off and was surprised to see his brother with Sakura approaching.

" Foolish little brother. I told you to buy us some popcorn and what do you do? You find other people to hang out with!" Itachi said as they stopped beside him. Sasuke looked at Sakura and she gave him a smile then he figured out what was going on.

" Sorry Itachi." Sasuke replied.

" I'll forgive you this time but please don't do anything else to ruin me and Sakura's date." Itachi said while everyone else gave him a shocked glare.

" Why are you dating that freak Itachi?" Naruto yelled out so loud that everyone in the room heard him while Sakura ignored his outburst.

" Naruto, you are an idiot. Sasuke, who are your other friends?" Itachi asked while he pointed to the other teenagers.

" Well I'm Ino, this is-" Ino began to introduce him to everyone but was rudely cut off.

" Good to know now Sasuke can we please go into the theatre? You can play with your little friends later." Itachi said. Sasuke had a bored expression on his face but on the inside he was happy.

' I have to remind myself to pay Itachi back for this later.' Sasuke thought to himself as the four of them started to walk away but was stopped.

" Hey Sasuke, how about you guys can sit with us." Neji came up with the idea.

' Fuck!'Sakura and Sasuke thought at the same time.

" That's a great idea, come on Sasuke, you can sit next to me." Ino said as she started to drag Sasuke away without anyone stopping her as everyone else followed.

They found their seats in the theatre just before the movie began and everyone took their seats. They sat in this order: Kisame, Itachi, Sakura, Sasuke, Ino, Neji, Temari and Naruto.

Everyone was enjoying the movie except for Sakura and Sasuke. Every time a scary part happened in the movie, Ino would take a hold of Sasuke's arm, irritating the hell out of him but after a while, he gave up trying to pull her off of him because she would never get the hint. Sakura was also getting annoyed with Ino and wanted to stand up in the theatre and rip her face off but calmed herself and tired her best to enjoy the movie. At one point of the movie, Sasuke took a glance over at Sakura and noticed that she had a disappointing and bored look on her face and couldn't help but blame himself.

He wanted her first movie experience in so long to be great but was ruined the moment he saw his friends.

He looked around and noticed everyone was paying attention to the movie so he carefully lifted up his hand that was on the side next to Sakura and gently placed it in her upper thigh. This action that he caused made Sakura silently jump a little and immediately looked down at her leg to see a hand placed there. She knew who hand it belonged to and looked up to see Sasuke looking back at her. She gave him a smile then looked back at the huge screen as Sasuke did the same thing. Sakura was thinking about putting her hand on top of his and started to lift up her hand when she was interrupted.

" Sasuke! Why the hell do you have your hand on Sakura's leg?" Ino whispered loudy so everyone around her could hear. Sasuke then looked down on his hand and took it off of her leg.

" Sorry, I thought it was the arm rest." Sasuke mumbled but everyone knew what he was saying and placed his hand back on the arm rest.

" That's okay..." Sakura said but Sasuke could tell she was disappointed and all he wanted to do right now was to kill Ino.

After the end of the movie, everyone got out of the theatre and walked outside.

" Alright little ones, we are off to the car now... Sasuke don't take too long to say bye to your friends." Itachi said as him, Sakura and Kisame started walking away without anyone saying bye to them.

" God Sasuke, I never knew you had a weird brother." Temari stated.

" Yeah he must be a weirdo to date a girl like Sakura." Ino giggled at her own comment while Sasuke said nothing but rolled his eyes.

" Whatever." Sasuke stated.

" So Sasuke, what are you up to now?" Naruto asked.

" Um... I'm not sure...I think I'm going to go home and go to bed." Sasuke said.

" Aw your no fun Sasuke! You should go out to eat with us." Ino said happily.

" No." Sasuke stated and began to walk towards his car.

" Hey wait Sasuke!" Naruto yelled out then he stopped to turn to his friend.

" We should hang out tomorrow. I'll call you sometime tomorrow okay?" Naruto said and Sasuke nodded his head in response and walked off again.

Sasuke didn't know where his brother could of taken Sakura so he decided to walk back to his own car. He was a little amazed to see a pink hair girl standing by his car, waiting for him. He couldn't help but smile at her and started to run after her.

" Sakura." Sasuke said when he caught up to her.

" Hey Sasuke." Sakura greeted back.

" Where did my brother and Kisame went to?" Sasuke asked as he opened up his car doors and they both got inside the car.

" Oh they left already, I just told them to drop me off by your car. I wasn't sure what I would had done if they hadn't shown up when I saw you with Naruto and the others." Sakura said.

" Yeah, I'm really sorry about that Sakura. I wanted to make our first date special but then things got in the way."

" I understand... are you sure you really want to be with me though? Wouldn't you rather find a girl that you can show off to your friends and not having to worry about a child involved?" Sakura questioned him as he came to a stop light and watched him turn his head to look at her.

" I wouldn't want anyone else but you." Sasuke said softly as he leaned over and gently kissed her on the lips then pulled away.

" Thanks..." Sakura said.

" We will just have to be careful from now on that's all... and maybe all this hiding could be pretty sexy."

Sasuke said while giving Sakura a wink and she turned away and blushed and even blushed even harder when she felt his hand on top of hers and intertwined their fingers together.

" So I guess we should head back to your place now." Sasuke spoke while driving.

" Yeah I bet Maynard is probably wondering where we are." Sakura said.

" You really do have a great kid you know that."

" Yeah actually I get that a lot. He wants to become an artist when he grows up. Thankfully, his talent in art and his black hair is his only traits that he recieved from that asshole."

" Can I ask you something a little personal?" Asked Sasuke.

" Sure. What is it that you want to ask me?"

" Does Maynard know anything about his father?" Sasuke questioned her and there was a moment of silence until she gave him her answer.

" No he doesn't.... he doesn't even ask about him really but I know he really wants one. I think maybe he thinks that he just didn't come with a father like all of the other kids. You are the first male in his life really. At the day care, Shizune, a worker is the only one that pays attention to him then it's just me and Tsunade. My father disowned me so he acts like he has no grandchild." Sakura explained to him.

" That's very sad to hear... but don't worry I'm not going anywhere and I already told him that we can be friends." Sasuke said.

" Thank you so much Sasuke! It means so much to me and him. I know he kinda gets tired of hanging out with me all the time." Sakura giggled which caused Sasuke to smirk.

Alright that was chapter 10. I hope you all enjoyed it and please review to let me know how this story is. Thanks!
