Don't own Naruto .o.o.
"talking"
'thinking'
Sasuke's POV
I knew the minute I told her the red haired whore was in school with me again I knew she would start to worry. I could see it on her face when her normal peachy complexion turned ghost white and she started biting on her bottom lip. It stung a little seeing her reaction, she didn't think that just because she and I were in almost all the same classes that something would happen between us right?
Sakura could give me a little more credit than that, I mean I know I was a little... eager in high school but what guy isn't; except Dobe because he's just an idiot. I know what my... let's say hormone induced actions caused, I was so eager to get up Sakura's skirt that I forgot the condom and my 'guys' did a little too good of a job... and the proof of that will be arriving in five months. But I don't regret it!
Anyway Sakura got over the whole thing rather quickly and there weren't really any problems... till around November. That was Sakura's worst month with mood swings by far, she threatened to kick me out of the apartment twice... and it was my damn place! But also during the time our marketing professor assigned us our final project for the quarter, stupid really, and we had to have a partner from the class. Naturally Karin jumped at the chance to work with me though I protested, I was shot down of course; and ironically enough she wanted to do the whole thing at my apartment. Again I protested but the teacher thought it was a great life experience... again I was denied.
I had yet to tell Sakura the news, hoping Karin would just come after class and leave by the time I needed to go get Sakura. That plan was dropped the first day when the bitch didn't show up till ten minutes before I had to leave.
"You're late Karin."
"I'm so sorry Sasuke-kun, the girls and I went shopping and I didn't realize what time it was... would you like to see what I bought?" Just hearing her voice made my skin crawl, it was like nails on a chalk board when she was trying to act cute... it wasn't cute. "But it's not like we can't start now right? We have hours, and if you want I can stay all night." Her trying to be seductive was worse than the cute.
"I have to leave, and I don't want you here when we get back."
"We? Whose we Sasuke-kun?"
She knew damn well who the 'we' was, she was just being stupid... which I hated. And for acting as such I decided not to answer her, I was running late as it was and didn't have time to argue with her; I don't want Sakura waiting long outside. So late in the year it was getting colder out and I didn't want her to get sick, plus with the baby growing, the extra weight on her petite form made it harder for her to stand for long periods of time.
"Hn."
"Where are you going Sasuke-kun? Can I come with you, pretty please?"
Her whinning was annoying, and I knew Sakura wouldn't be happy with seeing her in the car, but I ddin't have a choice; there was no way I was allowing her to stay in my apartment alone... who knows what she would so with the free access. But I also know she wouldn't be leaving anytime soon, she planned this so Sakura would know we were working on a project together... tonight was going to be hard.
"Sasuke-kun!"
I couldn't stand sitting in the car with Karin any longer while we waited for Sakura. She wouldn't shut up and her hand kept moving to rub my thigh; I was starting to wonder if I got her arrested for sexual harassment would I still pass the class we're in.
So now I was leaning against my car, watching my very pregnant girlfriend approach me; I had to keep my chuckling quiet when I noticed her slight waddle, she hated the fact that she couldn't walk straight anymore and she hated more when she saw me smiling about it. I couldn't help it though, she looked beautiful to me, knowing that in a few months she would be giving birth to my child made all this worth it. I couldn't wait until tomorrow after school, Sakura had a doctor's appointment and we were going to see for the first time what the baby's gender was... if we could get through today that is.
"Hey."
"Oh Sasuke it was horrible, Jiraiya-sensei slipped up in class today and blurted out that most of his ideas for that nasty book series he writes are his own experinces! And I heard that he and Tsunade-sama were together at one time!" She visibly shivered in disgust as I pulled her into my arms.
"That's not the picture I want in my head right now."
"I'm sorry Sasuke-kun, I didn't mean to disgust you, I was just as disturbed believe me. Sasuke... what is she doing here?" It was then that Sakura noticed Karin sitting in the car.
"I can explain, it's for my finale project for a class and that's all it is trust me."
"Sasuke-kun, you got her can we go now, we have work to do," Karin's interruptions were really pissing me off. And seeing as how she was in the front seat, and I doubted I could get her to move no matter what I said, I helped Sakura into the back; once she was comfortable I got in and set off for home.
The ride back to the appartment was only the beginning of the worst night of my life. Sakura hadn't said a word since she got in the car, and I could see when I looked into the rear view mirror that she was upset. I couldn't do much about it though, if I told Karin to go home she would report back to the professor that I wasn't doing the project and I would fail the class which would also anger Sakura... I was in a lose lose situation... and every time Karin opened her mouth wasn't helping.
"Sasuke-kun did you get a chance to read over what is required for the project?"
"Hn." Of course I did, but it wasn't needed since the old dinosaur practically read through everything in class, Karin was also present during this discussion so I didn't know why she bring it up now; and then I realized it was only for Sakura's benefit, or lack there of, that this was brought up.
Even though I stated, in my own way, that I knew what was expected, the red head still began talking a loud. "We have to be like a married couple and document all purchases and monthly costs till the end of the quarter, this is going to be so fun! We get to do everything together and I'm sure I could find one of those realistic dolls to act as our child, because you know we have to have a baby and care for it too... I wonder where they sale them?"
"You don't need to worry about that, we have one at home already," Sakura chirped up from the back seat, she was trying to act indifferent to what the other woman was talking about so she was trying to focus on the city streets that were passing by. "They're specially made and you can only get them if you go to the parenting classes, Sasuke had to work during the last one when they were introduced, so the instructor allowed me to bring one home."
"Oh that's right, you're going to be popping that kid out soon right? You know, you'll never get your figure back, that's what happens when you get pregnant."
"And you would know correct Karin?" Every comment Karin made, Sakura met her full force with one of her own, it was getting a little uncomfortable in the car and we were still a few blocks away from the apartment.
"No actually I wouldn't know because I've never been pregnant," Karin's snicker angered Sakura so much so that she almost hit her.
"Well then it's a good thing you're not, otherwise you won't know who the father was with all the men you've been with!"
I nearly slammed my foot on the brake at Sakura's words, she had never been this hateful towards someone before... even if it was Karin. From what I could see of her face in the mirror she seemed just as shocked as I was, I could tell she was just about to open her mouth and apologize, but Karin beat her to it.
"I may have a lot of admirers and they all want me because I'm not an immature little girl, but the only man I would ever let get that close would be Sasuke-kun... unlike you, are you even sure that thing is his? I saw the way Naruto and you flirted in high school, it could be that you just wanted to keep Sasuke all to yourself so you're trying to trap him with this kid."
"Why yo-."
"Sakura," now I was annoyed, both at the fact that Karin was trying to push Sakura's buttons and that my girlfriend was allowing her to succeed.
After what happened with her parents and my brother during the first two months of her pregnancy, the doctor told Sakura during her last appoinment that she couldn't be under too much stress. But seeing as she was a teenage girl in high school that was going to be insanely difficult. Too much stress and the doctor said he would have to put her on bed rest until her due date, I know she wouldn't be able to handle that, so I tried to have a stress free environment whenever she was near... but that was quickly going down hill the longer Karin was with us.
I hadn't meant to yell at her or take Karin's side when I scolded Sakura, like I said I just wanted her to think. But the look she gave me immediately made me want to retrack my reprimand, she looked as if I just kicked her dog and then she turned to look back out the window... I was going to get it later tonight. And just seeing that stupid smile on Karin's face I knew I made the wrong move, always side with your pregnant girlfriend... ugh, this is going to be a long month.
Note: Poor Sasuke... he's in the dog house now, and the longer this project goes on the more angry Sakura will get, so there's bound to be a fight between the two love birds. Sorry it's taken so long to get a chapter up, I've been busy with school work and writing other stories, I got really hooked on my last finished story 'She's Different'; but now I'm back to this one so... yay!
