"Ah, my feet hurt!" I commented, sitting down on one of the open benches. We had just gotten off of Soarin' over Fire Country and in Hollywoodland. Itachi departed from our small party after California Screamin'. He met up with Shisui there and they headed off to grab a bite to eat and then do what ever. So, here we are, near a bench in Hollywoodland.
"Mine, too!" Ino said, plopping down next to me.
"Sakura-channn, Ino, we should get going to Tower of Terror!" Naruto whined.
I shook my head and said, "I can take a pass on Tower of Terror. I'll just hang out in the AC in the Animation studio." I said. The rest of the group uneasily looked at each other. "No, no you go ride on Tower of Terror and I'll head off to Animation studio and just hang out there." I said, heading off.
"Fine, just don't do something stupid, ugly." Sai said. I assumed he had his stupid fake smile on. I rolled my eyes.
"Have fun waiting in line," I shot back at him and turned around to stick my tongue out before really making some sort of progress towards the Animation Studio. Since it was a Friday, there were a lot of people and people with strollers. I really don't want to know what its like on the Disneyland side... I made my way into the Animation studio. Ahh! AC! Even though it's still a moderate-almost cold temperature outside. Meh.
Inside all the projectors and music were of the theme Mulan. That is one of my favorite classic Disney animated movies. I walked over to the Animation Academy. "When is the next session?" I asked.
"The next session starts in thirty minutes. We're drawing Eeyore from the Whinny the Pooh movies." The lady said with a smile.
"Thanks." I murmur and walked away to sit down in the main room near the Toy Story thing. I plopped myself down and looked around the room. My feet continued to throb as I sat down. I reached in my backpack to get my phone to check my phone to get a read on the tine. 28 minutes until the session starts. "Itachi-channn!" I heard a familiar male voice whine. "It wouldn't kill you to at least give an eye of amusement that isn't Sasuke in his very very, VERY rare good moments and sakura-chan."
I frowned slightly and looked to the direction of the voice source. "Hn."
"And you can probably say more than one syllable, being yours. Sakura-chan would probably be more attracted to you," Shisui said after making a tsk noise.
"Shisui." Itachi said sternly.
"Good work, Itachi-chan! Now let's try more than one word!" Shisui said patting Itachi's head, even though Itachi's slightly taller than Shisui. 'Should I interfere with this?' I asked myself.
Itachi "hn"-d and turned to unknowingly face my way. I smiled at the 'classic Itachi.' Well, we know where Sasuke got his attitude from now. Itachi. When Itachi opened his eyes and saw my familiar (beautiful) face, his eyes widened before he put his emotionaless-ish mask back on. I ay the "ish" part because I can still see even the slightest amount of panic in him.
"Hey, Itachi, Shisui." I greeted from my spot.
"Oh! Sakura-chan!" Shisui said happily and approached me with his arms open for an embrace. I shuttered at my memory of my earlier encounter with shisui. Unconsciously, I tensed up but still kept my smile.
Shisui was stopped by the force that was Itachi's hand pulling on Shisui's shirt. "Idiot. Remember what happened last time you encountered her?"
"Oh yeah... Sorry about that Sakura-chan!" Shisui said.
"So looks like the fates had us run into each other yet again. Are you going to do the Animation Academy?" I asked.
"N-"
"Yes,." Itachi interrupted. "What happened to your friends?"
"Tower of Terror." I answered. Itachi gave me a questioning look that very few could catch. "My feet hurt."
"Aa. So, you don't mind if I joined you?"
"Of course not." I replied and pulled my backpack in front of me.
"You two do what ever, but I'm going out to Tower of Terror. Ja!" Shisui said and headed out of the Animation Studio.
The scenery had changed to Lion King and then Lady and the Tramp. "So, you could've gone with Shisui, if you wanted to." I said with a shrug.
"Aa, but then you would be alone here for the next-" Itachi looked at his watch. "20 minutes."
"But the rest of Konoha 12 said they would be back after Tower of Terror." I said with a shrug.
"You do realize that Tower of Terror has an hour wait line, right?"
"Oh..." I murmured. "Well, better to be hanging out in the AC than not, right?" I said with a smile. Itachi rose an eyebrow but then smirked back. At that moment I yawned. "Sorry, I guess I'm more tired than I think I am."
Itachi made the tsk noise and put an arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. "Here, you can lean on me. I'll tell you when we'll have to get up."
"No, Itachi, this really isn't necessary." I said, trying to put some space between us again.
"Hn." Itachi grunted and firmly kept his arm around me. I felt the heat start to rise to my face and I yawned again.
"Sakura, you're really tired," he said and dragged me onto his lap. I blushed harder.
"No, I'm not." I said.
"Sakura, your face is red and you're yawning. You're tired." He said and kept his arm around me tightly. I sighed and stopped resisting. Too much energy required.
At that moment, the scenery changed to the Lion King theme. A couple of women with strollers walked by and chuckled, "Oh, what a cute couple!"
The other one said, "Ah, remember how you were like that with your husband?"
"Aye! Don't talk about that here!" The first woman said. I blushed again and I could just FEEL Itachi smirk.
"... Stop that.." I murmur.
"No can do, Sakura-chan." He said smiling and then kissed the top of my head.
I grumble something inaudible and relax into his hold.
Next thing I realized, Itachi was waking me up. "Hm?"
"You fell a sleep. Its time to go in for the animation studio." Itachi nudged me off of him.
"Yeah, yeah.." I reply and get off of him. Itachi got up and helped me up. I looked around and the room was tangled themed playing the instrumental version of what ever the romantic song was. Itachi leads me to the line. "Despite this being one of the newer songs, I actually quite like this song..." I comment to Itachi. Itachi just smiled and 'Hn'ed.
I opened my mouth again to comment on something else, but instead of my voice, it was Naruto's. "SAKURA-CHANN! YOU'RE AWAKE!" He shouted. I turned to him. He and the others who went to Tower of Terror were back and coming out of the Sorcerer's Workshop.
"When id they get here?" I ask.
"A while ago," Itachi replied.
"What— Why didn't you wake me up!" I half demanded.
"You were tired and you needed rest," Itachi replied like it was nothing.
"Itachiii," I whine.
"Hn." …. You know, sometimes I REALLY hate it when he does that. I turned yet again to Naruto and the rest. "Sorry.. I was..heh.. Sleeping.." I say to them bashfully.
"No, it's okay Sakura-chan! You've been up all day! It was good that you took a rest but with," Naruto head motioned to Itachi who had his back to Naruto. "Is less… Yeah." I roll my eyes. "Hey—!"
"How was Tower of Terror?" I ask.
"Fabulous as usual, forehead!" Ino chimed in.
"'Course." I reply to Pig with a smile. Then the doors to the Animation Studio opened.
I AM FURIOUS-ish as furious as I can be with this first world problem; I CAN'T FIND THE PAGE BREAK LINE THING! DO YOU KNOW HOW IRRITATING THAT IS! I'M TRYING TO KEP THE FORMAT ESSENTIALLY THE SAME BUT IT ;LASHOIRASHDIORASDOHGIF! GOSH! ! I seriously can't find it so if anyone can, please help me! I swear it only says "Bold, italics, underline, strike through, THEN FORMAT." Ugh!
So 1. I AM SO SORRY FOR MISSING SO MANY UPDATES! I finally finished this chapter. I had a whole bunch of essays, then there was fall break (when my family and I hilariously actually did go to Disneyland and ran into one of my little sister's friend and that friend's sister and we also ran into some guy whom I've now "friend zoned" as some of my other friends phrase it. (I'm one of those people who doesn't have a lot of friends but has a lot of self-proclaimed friends and A HUGE list of acquaintances. Hah!)
Anyways, I just got into Bleach (I know that there are a lot of super critics out there about Bleach but I mean it's not bad.). I love Toshiro so much! He's adorably- tiny! Guess I'm attracted to shorties considering I'm a shortie myself (when I was volunteering at this one place, this guy flat out called me short. -_- Not amusing)! Anyways, and the ending of Naruto made me wanna cry and throw my phone off a cliff at the same time. I don't really like Sasuke. He looks way too much like Madara but in his own way he looks good. I just find it sad.. But I'm extremely- I'm going to put my rant on halt. I bored you too much with this nonsense! I'm sorry! Haha, but if you're dissatisfied with the ending, PM me and I can hopefully finish that sentence. Haha! Until next time! Thanks for reading!
