The Lies You Tell

I walked out of the office. Furious.

"What's the rush Sasuke?"

Itachi's voice never held me back before, and I wasn't about to let it now.

"Nowhere."

I hurried my pace and turned a few corner. When I entered the run-down parking lot I immediately spotted my car. We were never suppose to park in the same place within the time frame of a month, and all that jumping around could really confuse you.

"Thank God."

I quickly slipped into the black leather interior, thankful for the escape from work.

"I hate that son of a bitch."

Kiba. That low life asshole. He had crossed a line, and starting the car up to a low purr he wondered what he was going to do about it. In reality there was little he could do. And little he couldn't. As a GHOST in the country a murder would never be traceable, but Itachi would know…and unfortunately RA needed as many members as they could get. However low they appeared to be…because of that Sasuke knew he could do nothing. He wouldn't go so far as to jeopardize the organization that his parents had worked so hard to create.

"Doesn't mean I couldn't make him pay…"

He thought of smaller, more petty acts; like vandalizing cars, and his apartment.

"Hopefully she's okay…"

He thought of other girls that Kiba had been with and it just made the furious anger rise back up into his heart. He felt the hateful images of pounding Kiba's head into the wall rise to the front of his mind, and backing up he nearly ran into the car that had been zooming behind him.

"Sorry."

After flicking him off the driver promptly speed up and took off like a bat out of hell.

"…wow."

He shook his head and raised his eyebrow in curiosity when his cell phone went off.

"..hm?"

He picked it up and noticing it was a text message. He placed it down again in annoyance when he found that it wasn't Naruko.

" Where to now?"

He thought about going home but seeing things that reminded him of her everywhere wasn't on his top priority list. He decided to drive downtown. He did just that.

"I wonder what she wanted…?"

After passing multiple stores and traffic lights he decided to pull over and answer the phone that was vibrating constantly. He knew right away who it was going to be but he wondered if it was about Naruko.

"Hello."

He didn't make his voice friendly or welcoming at all. He knew what this girl wanted from him the moment she laid eyes on him.

"Hey…so Naruko and you broke up I heard?"

The voice was slightly static like on the other end. Horrible connection for a horrible friend.

"Well…I was just wondering if you wanted to talk about it….I know it can be hard and all…and well, I'm pretty good at comforting people during hard times.."

Her voice was seductive and he felt bile slightly rise at the back of his throat.

"I thought you and Naruko…"

"Were friends? Yes, we are but-"

"How is she?"

The annoyance in her voice at his nonchalant mood was evident.

"She's fine. Actually last time I heard she hooked up with some stranger."

He could almost imagine her nose wrinkle with distaste. Sasuke knew her well enough to know she had run around with quite a few boys in her day. He knew she was as much a hypocrite as she was a lousy friend. He also knew what Naruko did, and as much as he wanted to admit that it hurt him he didn't- at least not out loud.

"Well…she must not have really loved yo-"

Sasuke cut her off quickly.

"What do you want?"

She cleared her throat.

"I'm offering you an invitation."

"For what? Throwing a part?"

She giggled. Didn't she know he was being sarcastic? Too bad she couldn't see him roll his eyes.

"Yes…yes…- in fact, you're the guest of honor."

He thought about hanging up and throwing the phone down on the seat in disgust…But something flickered in his soul like a search light…he couldn't put a finger on the emotion right away but as soon as he felt it he knew what he had to do.

"Hmn. Where do you live again?"

He was drumming his fingers on the driving wheel as she rambled off an address. He had been over to her house a thousand times to pick up Naruko from "girl time". However, he just never found it to be important to remember her address. When she was finished he hung up right away and turned back onto the rode to drive to her house.

"This…is kind of weird…"

He drove to her house anyways and when the girl with a full figure bounced outside of the blue townhouse he almost twisted his face in disgust. However, keeping his cool he let the dark haired girl guide him into the house.

"Don't worry Sasuke...everything will be alright."

He watched her violet eyes trail over his body and said nothing. After all he currently felt like nothing.
