Chapter 11
I woke up early because Sasuke woke me up. I guess he wanted to talk to me. He hadn't talked to me much in the last two months. Mainly because I was making Hinata move in with me. I wanted her to be away from her dad as much as possible.
"Good morning," he said quietly.
"Good morning," I responded in the same quiet tone. We didn't want to wake the girls because they were still sleeping. We knew that if they did we would be in trouble.
"We still haven't been talking much since we started hanging out," he said. He looked a little bit hurt, but he knew I was spending most of my time with Hinata. I felt bad that he had been going through a rough time and not had time for me to talk with him.
"I know. I'm sorry we haven't been talking as much," I said looking at the ground. I had been cutting still and I truly didn't want him to find out.
"How is living with Hinata? It must be nice. You two seem to be really happy together. Sakura and I are getting to be a better couple as well. I feel better because our relationship is going great too. I love her so much. After I defended her from you she realized how much she has respected you," Sasuke said. I smiled because I wanted them to have a better relationship, but I also wanted Sakura's respect as well.
"It's been going well. I'm glad that you two have been working everything out. I hated that you got into a huge fight because of me. I know you never really wanted to hurt her," I responded.
"She forgave me for it, but I still feel like I'm hurting her. Sakura was a little bit afraid of me after I beat her up. I would have been scared of me too," he responded. Sasuke was regretting everything, but I knew it was my fault too.
"Well have you been losing your temper with her?"
"No, but we have been arguing over a lot of different things. It was normal that we argued before I hurt her, but it had gotten worse after I hurt her. Half of the arguments I don't even remember because it was so small," he responded.
I remembered after the mission that he told me they had been arguing. I mainly think it was because Sakura wanted to get married soon, but Sasuke didn't want too. They were still young. They had their whole lives ahead of them. Sasuke questioned if things were going to get better between them. I told him that I thought that they would because they had the whole life time to be happy together. He smiled and I was glad that I got him to smile.
"I just wished that I could handle the arguments better. I think it would make a better impact on us," he said. I nodded because I really didn't know what to say. I haven't been in a relationship that long to worry about.
"Well maybe you don't have to handle them on your own. She is just as much a part of them as you are," I responded. He knew I had a point, but I knew he wasn't going to take my advice because he was stubborn.
Sasuke did know that he didn't have to handle them on his own. He knew that he could bring the problems up to Sakura. I guess he figured that he didn't want to start anymore arguments. Sasuke looked at me for a little bit longer, but I didn't want to push him away. I knew if I did we wouldn't have these talks anymore.
"You are right. I should talk to her about them," he responded. I smiled because he finally understood what I was trying to say.

When the girls woke up they got dressed and ready for the day. I was glad that Sasuke and I had decided to get dressed before the girls woke up. We would have had to wait for a long time. The only person that wasn't dressed was Amaya.
We were all waiting for her to get dressed so we could go out to eat. All of us were going to try to make her feel better. I needed to make it up to her. I knew she didn't want to talk about anything with me. I thought her destiny was crap. Wasn't it though? Why would she have to die at such a young age? She didn't need too. She needed to live for us all.
None of us wanted her to die. She was a great person unlike Sakura. Sakura was starting to get a little better, but that was not the point. The point was that Amaya shouldn't have to worry about dying. She should be worried about other things. I didn't want her to follow the destiny crap that Neji had been doing.
I was starting to get mad at Neji, but it was because Amaya was acting like him. I shouldn't blame him, but I just didn't want to hear it. I also saw that he had talked to her at my party. He was smiling somewhat. Who knew he could smile?! I didn't know what they discussed, but I felt like it was her destiny…
"Where do you guys want to go out to eat?" I asked. I was now not in the mood to go out. All of them could tell, but I didn't want to hurt Amaya anymore. I wanted her to feel better. She smiled at me although she could feel the tension.
"We can just go get ramen. I'm craving it anyways," she responded. We headed over there and she enjoyed the food.
"That was great!" she exclaimed. I was happy to see her smiling. She was better from yesterday.
"I'm glad. Let's head back to my house." I responded. I noticed that I was getting dirty looks. Everyone else noticed too. We hurried back to my house.

We were all sitting around my apartment bored out of our minds. I didn't think it would be so boring. No one was really talking either. Well the girls were. Sasuke and I were listening to them talk and joined in when we could.
"So what do you want to do?" Hinata asked.
"We could play a game!" Amaya suggested.
"What game?" Hinata asked. Amaya thought for a second before she said truth or dare.
"Truth or Dare sounds cool. You all in?" Sakura asked looking at me, Hinata, and Sasuke we nodded because it did sound cool.
"Naruto, truth or dare," Hinata asked.
"Truth," I said because I didn't want to get dared to do anything embarrassing.
"Is it true that you used to sleep with a teddy bear," she asked me smiling from ear to ear. I felt my face turn red a little bit. She was giggling at me.
"No, who gave you that idea," I said embarrassed. The truth was I slept with a teddy bear when I was little.
"Nobody," she said and winked. I tackled her to the ground, got on top of her, and started tickling her. Everyone was laughing. Then we moved on with on with the game. It was my turn. I decided to choose Sasuke.
"Sasuke, truth or dare," I asked him.
"Dare," he responded. I looked at him evilly and he gulped a bit.
"I dare you to put on a pink and black bra and matching underwear," I responded.
