Cracked Shell
By: Silverwolf
The buzz for today was the school talent show. Sai looks at Sasuke, "nice to know you've healed up." The raven teen rolls his eyes. "So is your brother going to be watching?" Sasuke shrugs. "So are you in this one?" Sasuke laughs, "course. Because I got talent."
Kailani steps through the hall. Naruto at her side. A boy sticks his foot out trying to make the girl go flying. Instead he pulls his foot back to a sound. Kailani is laughing at something. Naruto grins lightly. She'd given up on the blanket after her suspension.
Sasuke tosses something to Kailani. "Kai!" The girl is quick to turn towards the sound. She catches her sweatshirt. A small grin plays on Kailani's face as she throws the shirt back, "you can keep it." She grins to Sasuke. Naruto narrows his eyes towards the other teen. Kailani puts her arms around Naruto's neck and hops onto his back. The blonde grins a moment and continues walking, carrying the girl. Kailani waves briefly to Sasuke.
"Naruto's got a girlfriend." Sasuke looks at Sai. "Girl friend, yes. Girlfriend, no. Slowly he's having an effect on her." Sai rolls his eyes. Sasuke stares at Sai. "What's your problem?" Sai makes a face, "you actually going to keep that? Before you would've thrown it away without even putting it on." Sasuke smirks, "there's only problem with it now." Sai watches as Naruto puts Kailani on her feet. "What's that?" Sasuke makes a face, "it no longer smells like the ocean and honey." Sai laughs and shoves Sasuke playfully. The raven teen shoves Sai roughly. Sasuke slides the sweatshirt back on. Sai rolls his eyes. "Ask her to wear it for a couple days and then give it back." Sasuke makes a face, "that sounds so stupid."
A group of girls flocks around Sasuke. "So what are you going to do for the talent show?" Sasuke tilts his head. "You'll have to wait and see." They all become excited. Sakura stares at the sweatshirt Sasuke's wearing jealousy. The girl with bubble gum hair mutters under her breath. "I can't believe her. Like she was important." Sasuke looks at Sakura, "who's important?" "No one." The raven teen watches the girl and Ino speaking. Sai looks at Sasuke, "they are going to start with that girl over you." Sasuke makes a face, "she's not 'that girl'. Her name is Kailani. And I doubt they will today. Since Kailani gets to play escort to visiting families."
Sai tilts his head, "as shy as she is?" Sasuke smirks a moment, "someone personally picked her to escort them around school. Therefore, the girls are just going to have to wait or prepare for a real war." Sai looks confused. "Who would pick her?" Sasuke laughs, "I can't tell."
The raven teen disappears leaving Sai lost and confused. He knew the talent show was only a hour away. Those in it would be leaving to prepare. And those escorting parents around would be heading to the office. But he was still confused. Who would want Kailani?"
