THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO REVIEWED!! I finally got a hundred reviews! Yay!

So here is chapter 10 of date night. It's the chapter with the party and also the chapter where Sasuke admits that he loves Sakura. I think this is the longest chapter yet too.

Anyways, enjoy!

At Sakura's House

"I'm not going!" Sakura said, sitting down on her bed.

"What!" her best friend, Ino cried, outraged. "How can you not want to go to the party?"

"I just don't want to."

"Liar!" accused the blonde. "You just don't want to go because you think that you might see Sasuke! Am I right?

"No," Sakura denied, looking down at her hands in her lap.

Ino studied her friend for a couple of seconds before saying, "Okay, two things. First, you're a really bad liar and second, you two are fighting for a completely stupid reason."

"Whatever. I'm still not going to the party."

"But it won't be any fun with out you there! You have to come, and besides, I know that Sasuke won't be there!"

The pink haired girl rolled her eyes at the scene her friend was making. "You can't know that for sure," she pointed out.

"All you have to know is Sasuke's personality. He absolutely hates things like parties so why in the world would he show up?" Ino asked, looking down at her friend.

"Yeah, but…" Sakura trailed off. 'But what if on the off chance, he does show up,' she thought. 'After our big fight, he hasn't even talked to me or even glanced my way. Even on yesterday's mission, he didn't even acknowledge my presence, so if he did show up tonight, it would be a whole other night of that and I can't take that.'

"Also," Ino said, interrupting her thoughts, "the party is at Kei's house which is even more of a reason for Sasuke not to show up."

'She has a point,' Sakura thought. Out loud, she said, "Fine, I'll go!"

"Yay! Now all we have to do is find something for you to wear!"

At The Party

Sakura giggled before taking a sip of her drink.

"See! I told you would have fun," Ino laughed, "and wasn't I right about Sasuke not being here."

"Yeah," Sakura admitted. "Thanks, I needed this."

"Anytime," the blonde said. She looked past Sakura towards the door and her smile suddenly disappeared, her face turning serious. "Uh-oh," she said.

"What is it?" Sakura asked, wondering what was wrong with Ino, and noticing that she was looking behind her, Sakura turned around to see the last thing she wanted to at the moment. Her mouth dropped in shock and she almost spilt her drink all over herself because coming through the front door was Naruto and following behind him was Sasuke.

With out thinking, Sakura darted behind Ino as fast as she could.

"Wh-What are you doing?" the blonde girl asked confused.

"Hiding," Sakura answered.

"No way! Not behind me!"

"Please!" she pleaded.

"I said no!"

All of their commotion ended up drawing Sasuke's attention and he looked over at them. Sakura looked back and for a moment, their eyes met until he broke the contact and walked right by her.

Sakura turned to watch him go. ''This is going to be such a long night,' she thought dreadfully.

--

"What's he doing now?" Sakura asked.

"Are you going to ask my every single minute what he's doing." Ino sighed. "If you want to know so badly, why don't you just turn around and look!"

"I can't do that. He'll know that I'm watching him," the pink haired girl explained, letting out a sigh of her own. "Just tell me already what he's doing," she pleaded.

"Fine, but this is the last time I'm going to tell you, okay?"

"Okay."

The blonde rolled her eyes before answering, "He's still just standing there talking to Naruto. There, happy?"

Sakura just nodded and traced the rim of her cup with her fingers, wishing that she had stayed home.

On the other side of the room, Sasuke half listened to what Naruto was talking about. Instead he was more interested in watching a certain pink haired girl out of the corner of his eye. Not once, had she glanced his way since he had first walked in and it was really starting to piss him off. What he was even more pissed off about though was that he had even let Naruto convince him to come.

Flashback To Earlier In the Day

"No way," Sasuke said, slamming the door in Naruto's face, but the blonde still didn't give up.

"Come on teme! Everyone is going to be there."

"Just go away already," Sasuke shouted from the other side of the door.

Naruto glared at the door, but still didn't go away. "You know what I heard?" he baited, "I heard that the party was at that guy, Kei's house and that Sakura-chan's going to be there tonight, but if you don't want to go…"

Naruto waited, knowing that he had his friend with those words, and a couple of seconds he heard Sasuke say "Fine."

End Of Flashback

"Hi," a dark haired girl said, coming up to Sasuke.

Normally Sasuke would usually just ignore or glare at the girls who came up to hit on him until they went anyway, but he saw Sakura was now watching him and the girl, curiosity showing on her face. 'It's about time,' he thought, and he smirked at her before looking at the girl in front of him. "Hey," he greeted back.

Sakura watched the two talk from where she was standing, a sour feeling starting in her stomach. She almost felt like going up and pushing the girl who was so obviously flirting with Sasuke. 'Also, what the hell was with that smirk he sent me,' she thought, digging her nails into her cup. She continued to watch as the girl grabbed Sasuke's shirt sleeve and led him out of the room. 'That's it,' Sakura thought, and she put her cup down, and told Ino, "I'll be right back." Then she hurried off in the direction that Sasuke had gone with that girl before Ino could stop her.

Sakura was sure she had seen them go towards the deck but when she checked, they weren't there. She went back inside and started looking through many of the rooms in the house but she didn't find Sasuke anywhere. She walked back into the living room, hoping to see Sasuke standing there, talking with Naruto again, but he wasn't. It was just Naruto who was now talking with Hinata.

Thoughts of what the Sasuke and the girl could be doing right now suddenly invaded Sakura's mind causing her to start to recheck all over the house. Once again, he was no where to be found. She was about to go back into the living room for the third time when someone grabbed her wrist and she turned to see who, hoping it was Sasuke, but all that hope died when she saw that it was just some random guy.

"Hey, why don't you go get a drink with me," the guy slurred. Sakura could tell that he had had too much to drink.

"No thanks," she answered, wanting to get as far away from the guy as she could so she to continue her search for Sasuke.

The guy's smile faltered a bit. "Come on!" he insisted, pulling her closer a little closer to him.

Sakura opened her mouth to tell the guy to back off but someone interrupted her before she could.

"Are you deaf?, came a cold voice from behind Sakura. Both her and the guy turned to see who it belonged to. It was Sasuke and he was shooting the man one of the worst glares that she had ever seen. "Let her go," he commanded."

The guy looked at Sakura and then back at Sasuke. "Sorry," he said, letting her wrist go. "I saw her by herself so I didn't know that she was yours."

Sasuke didn't say anything; just grabbed Sakura's wrist, leading her away from the drunken man and out onto the deck where the noise of the party wasn't quite as loud.

"Th-Thanks," Sakura mumbled when he turned to face her, her face turning slightly red.

"Whatever," Sasuke scoffed. "If you didn't attract trouble like a magnet, I wouldn't have to help you all the time."

Sakura felt her anger rise a bit with his words. "I see you're still being a jerk!" she told him, tearing her wrist out of his grip and giving him a nasty glare. "It's not like I asked for your help! I could have taken care of that idiot by myself."

"Yeah right," he sneered.

"I could have too and you know it! Also you still haven't apologized for how big of a jerk you were to me and Kei the other day!"

"That guy again?" Sasuke sighed. "Why do you care about him so much?"

"Because he's my friend! What the hell is your problem?" Sakura demanded. "Anytime I hang around a guy, your attitude sucks! What? Am I not allowed to have any guys for friends."

"No," Sasuke said without thinking.

"Really? Since when have Naruto and Sai been girls?" she asked sarcastically.

"That's different," Sasuke told her.

"No. It's not. Kei is the same as Naruto and Sai. They're my friends! Why are you getting so upset about Kei anyways. He has a girlfriend, and I've known his since forever. He's just a good friend so why!?"

"It's because…" he trailed off.

"Because you what!?"

"It's because I love you okay!" Sasuke growled out, his anger finally boiling over.

Sakura looked at him shocked. Never had he said "I love you" to her. Actually, now that she thought about it, never had she heard those three words come out of his mouth about anyone before. She couldn't believe it.

"I'm leaving," Sasuke said suddenly, bringing her out of her shock and she saw him walking away.

"No! Wait!" she called, running after him. She grabbed his sleeve, making his stop and he face her. "Wh-What did you just say," she asked. She had to make sure that what he had just said was true and not something she'd just imagined. "D-Did you just say that you loved me?"

"I'm not going to say it again," Sasuke told her stubbornly.

"But you said it." She hugged him suddenly much to Sasuke's surprise.

"What are you doing?" he asked, the color pink slightly staining his cheeks.

"I love you too," he heard her whisper out, and his gaze softened slightly.

"Come on," he said. "I'll take you home."

Sakura nodded, and let him take her hand and lead her away.

Unknowingly to Sasuke and Sakura, someone had been watching them from inside the house the whole time.

"I can't believe your plan worked," Ino said, turning to Naruto to give him a smile.

"Well, it was my plan after all, and I am a genius," Naruto said proudly.

"Hey! Don't get to cocky," the girl said, slapping him on the back of his head.

Yep. Ino and Naruto had the whole thing planned. They got both Sasuke and Sakura to come since they were sick of them fighting and hoped that they would make up which they did! Also if there were any major spelling mistakes, please tell me! Thanks!

I hope it was good and please review!
