If there was something Arisa and Sasuke had in common, it was their dislike for parties. Arisa was gaining a headache from the loud music, and Sasuke's scowl only grew as time passed and people got drunker and stupider. It was Ino's birthday party. Arisa was invited by Kiba, and she thought it was time she made some friends now that she was settled at Konoha. However, having arrived here she figured there was no harm finding friends at a quiet grocery store. Arisa grabbed her belongings, passed the sweaty crowd and slipped through the back door of the club. The cold air hit her heated body and goosebumps sprung all along her arms. She regretted leaving her apartment in favor of this gathering. Now she had to make the trek back home, which was about a mile away on the other side of town. Arisa shrugged into her lightweight sweater and with a sigh she started her walk.
