Sasuke's P.O.V.
'What the fuck is wrong with me?' The raven haired boy thought. He was pissed off at himself.
He kissed Sakura.
In front of Karin.
That was only way to get Karin to leave him the hell alone. But when he touched her lips... he started to feel... weird. His chest tightened up on him. He could literally feel his heart thump throughout his body.
And the words he said.
'I wouldn't mind doing so.' and 'Be mine.'
There was something about this girl that was different.
'But how?' He thought. 'Leave her alone Sasuke.'
Sasuke gripped the steering wheel as he focused on the road. Sakura sat in the passenger seat and Riri was in the back seat playing with her ponytails. He took Sakura out to lunch before they picked up Riri. It was extremely awkward. She refused to keep a simple conversation going. She barely looked at him. Not to mention she barely touched her food and Sasuke was the one who paid for both of them. But hey, splurging a little money didn't bother the raven.
'What was her problem?'
Sasuke peeked through the rear view mirror. He saw the small child pull on her ponytails until one of her barrettes popped.
"Uh-oh." The child said.
Sakura turned around and looked at her. "Riri stop messing with your hair. That's why your barrette broke."
"Not ah." Riri said.
"Yes huh." Sakura said back.
"Hey." Sasuke said interrupting them.
"What?" Sakura replied.
Sasuke could tell by the way she sounded she didn't want to talk. He bit his tongue.
"You and your sister look exactly alike."
"So I've been told."
"She can pass for your daughter."
"Oh."
The conversation died right after that.
"Is your sister hungry? We could stop by somewhere and get her something." Sasuke said trying to keep the conversation going.
"Riri are you hungry?" Sakura asked turning her head toward her.
She didn't say anything. All Riri did was pull out the other barrette holding the rest of her hair up.
"I'll take that as a no." Sasuke answered.
"Where are you taking me anyway?" Sakura questioned.
Sasuke pulled up to a stop light. He turned his head facing the pink head girl. "Can't you just shut up and enjoy the ride?"
He saw her green eyes get filled with rage. "I did not ask YOU for a ride in the first place! You just dragged me along." She yelled. "I'm missing class for nonsense!"
The raven haired boy smirked. He actually enjoyed pissing her off.
The light turned green and Sasuke started going straight. A thought suddenly ran across his mind.
"Damnit." He mumbled. Instead of going the route he planned, Sasuke made a complete U-turn and took a left at the stop light he recently passed up.
'How the hell did I forget?' Sasuke thought.
"What's wrong with you?" Sakura asked sounding irritated.
"Shut up." He replied.
"Well EXCUSE ME for asking."
"What's up with you women and raising your voice?"
"To let you little boys know how pissed off we are at you."
"There's a difference between a boy and a man and I'm far from being a 'little boy'." Sasuke stated.
"I'm sure you are." The pink haired girl said sarcastically.
After a few minutes and insults between the two Sasuke pulled up to his driveway and turned off his ignition.
"Is this your house?!" Sakura asked with a rather exciting tone.
"Stay here. I'll be right back." He said to the pink haired girl.
"Riri gotta potty." Riri said. The squeaky voice caught both teens by surprise as they turned to face her. She had both her hands placed on her private area.
"Don't grab yourself Riri." Sakura told her.
"Me gotta peeeeeeeeee!" The child yelled out.
Sasuke let out a sigh. "Bring her in. I'll show you to the bathroom." Sasuke said exiting the car. He waited for both girls to exited the car as well then led them into his house.
"Shoes go right here." The raven haired boy pointed to after he closed the front door. He slipped off his shoes and then waited for Sakura and Riri. He watched as Riri sat down on the floor, slipped off her little white sandals, stacking them right next to Sakura's, then stood back up.
Sasuke led them through the front room and toward the kitchen. "There's a bathroom right down that hallway to the right." He stated.
"Ok." Sakura replied. She looked down at Riri. "Come on Riri."
"Potty time! Potty time!" Riri said as they started heading to the bathroom.
Sasuke's eyes darted down to Sakura's lower half. He noticed that her ass had gotten slimmer and firmer then how it was before. He couldn't deny looking at her. He was a male. They stare at women. And Sakura just so happened to have a nice body. He still remembered the first time he looked at her body in class. Her walk was different as well. She has more of a twist now.
'I have to stop looking at her.'
Sasuke walked over to the counter and spotted the two empty food bowls.
'I bet he's pissed with me.'
He took out a can of tuna and a carton of milk. He filled both bowls then placed them on the floor. A few minutes later Sakura and Riri returned to the kitchen. Sasuke saw that the child was holding on to Sakura's middle and ring finger with one hand.
"Thank you for letting my sister use your bathroom." Sakura said.
"No problem." Sasuke said as he leaned against the kitchen counter.
It grew quiet in between the two.
"So... are you going to explain yourself to me?" The pink haired asked as she started to fix Riri's pigtails.
"Explain what?" Sasuke asked.
"That incident you cause earlier today!" Sakura yelled. Her cheeks turned bright pink.
Sasuke thought back on what happened between them in the hallway today. How he pressed his lips against her soft ones. From all the girls he kissed before, Sasuke actually felt strange this time. Like he had the butterflies or some shit like that. He didn't even feel that way with Karin.
Never.
'Hell no. Stop it.' He thought.
"That was to make Karin go away."
'Fuck.'
"Are you kidding me? You kissed me just to make your girlfriend leave you alone?!" She yelled. She was finished with the child's hair. Her face was red.
"Ex-girlfriend. And yeah. She wouldn't have stopped if I didn't do anything." Sasuke felt as if he had a lump in his throat.
"If Riri wasn't right here I would slap you." Sakura said. "You don't use people like that. You have to consider other people's feelings as well you ass!"
"You slapped me once, you won't do it again." Sasuke stated.
"I'll tend to remember that." Sakura replied.
Both teens were side tracked from their conversation by hearing the tiny giggles of the child.
Sasuke suddenly felt the atmosphere change from heavy to light. The child then pointed upward toward Sasuke's way.
"Kitty!" She yelled as she smiled.
"Hn?" Sasuke turned around and was immediately attacked by the fluffy force. The kitten jumped on top of the Uchiha's face. Being caught off guard made him fall down to the floor against the cabinets.
Sasuke grabbed the kitten and tossed him to the side. "Don't do that again!"
"Meow." The kitten let out. He walked over toward his filled food bowls and started to consume the delicious milk and tuna.
"Serves you right." Sakura blurted out.
Sasuke gave her a look but was distracted by Riri who ran over to him. The child pressed her tiny fingers against his cheeks.
"Ok?" She asked him.
"I'm ok." He replied. Sasuke looked over at the pink haired girl who was down right in shocked. Her eyes and mouth were wide open.
"What's with that face?" He asked questionly.
"S-she never did that before." Sakura said.
"Asking someone if they are ok?"
"No! Communicating with people period. She doesn't even play with the kids at her daycare."
'She's unsociable just like you.'
Before saying anything else, they were interrupted by the sound of the kitchen door opening.
"Great." Sasuke mumbled as he saw his brother enter the home. Itachi looked at his sibling with a stern look.
The older Uchiha placed his brief case on the kitchen counter. He looked over at Sakura who looked slightly frightened. Riri ran over to Sakura, clutching her leg.
Itachi turned his attention back to his brother.
"When the school called me I thought it was a joke." He spoke. "But when I saw your car parked out in front I seen that it wasn't."
"Itachi-"
"Skipping school to mess around like before huh? Then with a kid in the house? You have no remorse whatsoever."
"It's not even like that!" Sakura yelled out.
Both Uchiha's looked at her.
"So she speaks." Itachi said.
"We weren't doing anything. I swear."
Itachi walked over to her. They were only a few inches away from each other. Riri moved behind Sakura, hiding herself.
"So then explain to me. What were you two doing here all alone?" He looked dead at her with his red eyes. The look he was giving her made Sakura nervous.
"We- I-… We weren't-" She stuttered.
"Itachi leave her alone. We weren't doing anything in here. Her sister had to use the bathroom." Sasuke said.
"I'm sure she did. This isn't the first time you've been caught with a girl in the house." Itachi stated.
"Huh?" Sakura let out.
"Did you forget about sneaking that red head in here the last time you ditched school?"
"Don't mention her."
"Why? You two were caught plenty of times doing inappropriate things in this house. Feel embarrassed in front of your new girl?" The older Uchiha said smirking.
"She's not my girl." Sasuke corrected him.
"So it's like that then?"
"I- I got to go." Sakura said. Both brothers looked at her.
"That's a smart choice." Itachi said.
"I'll drop you off." Sasuke said.
"No. I'll catch the bus!" Sakura blurted out. She grabbed the child and rushed out the door.
"Sakura!" Sasuke started to go after her but was blocked by his brother.
"You aren't leaving." Itachi said.
"I will if I want to." He said trying to move pass Itachi but couldn't.
"You leave and I will track your car."
Sasuke bit his bottom lip. He wanted to curse out his brother but refused to.
"Leave those girls alone. They will only bring you trouble. You need to—"
"I know. School is more important." Sasuke said interrupting his brother's words. He didn't feel like arguing with Itachi so he just went along with him.
"You're 18. I'm not about to put up with this behavior anymore."
"So what are you going to do? Ground me?"
"Give me the car keys." Itachi said holding out his hand.
"Make me." Sasuke was staring dead at him with his oxy eyes.
Itachi shook his head as he let out a sigh. He dropped his hand to his side.
"Remember little brother: The car is in my name, not yours. Take it and I will press charges."
Sasuke gritted his teeth.
"You're bluffing."
He couldn't be serious.
"Try me. Maybe you need a little jail time." He red eyes looked as if they were flaring at him.
Itachi was serious.
Once again, Itachi held out his hand to his brother.
'Asshole…' Sasuke thought as he dug in his pants pocket and reached them out to Itachi. Instead of putting them in his hand, Sasuke threw them on the counter and stormed off to his room.
"Dick." He heard Itachi say.
He pisses him off just from seeing his face. He couldn't stand when he tried to act like he was the boss of him. He couldn't stand it when he even spoke to him. He couldn't stand his brother. Sometimes he felt that he hated him.
All because of that day.
That horrible day.
He blamed Itachi.
Their parents were dead.
And it was all his fault.
