Returning Uchihas
And so once again, it was yet another peaceful, bright morning in Konohagakure. It couldn't be a more perfect day anywhere.
At the Uchiha Manor, Sasuke rolled back and forth before sitting up, stretching and yawning loudly. He rubbed his eyes until realization hit him. He tensed up.
Wait a second, Shizuka-neisan didn't yell at me this morning! He thought. He turned to look at his clock, which read 10:00 AM. He twitched his eyebrows.
Somehow, I have a bad feeling about this...He thought once again.
Slowly, he threw the sheets to the ground and walked down the hallway. He opened door to door. Still no sign of his sister.
Where the hell is she? She's usually around the house. He thought.
Finally, he reached the question. Fortunately, he had found Shizuka sitting on the floor, hands form like a platform that rested her chin. The only thing that Sasuke had trouble thinking about was her rather scary trademark Uchiha smirk.
"Ohayou gozamasu, Sasuke-chan." She greeted slyly.
Sasuke twitched his eyebrows. "W-w-what's with the chan part now?"
"Nothing at all. It's just that its been so long since I called you that." Shizuka replied. "It felt like yesterday you were that little, cheerful boy. The one that always watched me and Itachi battle each other, of course I won most of them."
"Now, you're a grown person. You're at the peak of teenager. You're no longer that same little boy anymore." SHe continued with a small smile.
There was a dead silence. An annoying one. Finally, Sasuke's face turned rigid.
"Okay Shizuka-neisan, what's this about?" He asked, hoping it's not what he thinks.
Suddenly, Shizuka immediately got a grip on Sasuke's neck, nearly choking him. She playfully nudged his head as she smirked. Sasuke groaned.
"Oy Shizuka-nei, what the hell are you doing?!" He yelled.
"You like Sakura-chan! You like Sakura-chan!" SHe chorused. "Admit it, you like Sakura-chan!!"
Sasuke blushed. "T-t-t-t-t-that's not true!"
"Yes you do! It's okay to deny it! That's the first step of love!" Shizuka excplaimed. "Hormones hitting in huh?!"
"Neisan, when I say it isn't true, IT ISN'T TRUE!"
"I guess you're right Sasuke. " she replied with a sly grin. "No...YOU LOVE SAKURA-CHAN! THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!"
Shizuka continued to nearly choke Sasuke's neck as he moaned. "OY SHIZUKA-NEISAN! LET GO OF ME!"
"My little brother is growing up! Sakura-chan is gonna be my future sister-in-law!" She exclaimed loudly. "I'M GONNA HAVE SOME LOVELY NEPHEWS AND NIECES THESE DAYS!!!!"
"NEI-SAN SHUT THE HELL UP!"
"I've got to get a wedding started!"
"SHIZUKA-NEI LET ME GO BEFORE I CHIDORI YOUR ASS!"
"Pfsh, like you can." Shizuka stated sarcastically.
However, she reluctantly released her little brother from her hold. Sasuke coughed loudly and muttered curses under his breath. Shizuka sighed.
"Damn Sasuke, why can't you just admit you love Sakura-chan?"
"Cause I don't, so shut the hell up. And I thought Sakura was annoying." He shot back.
"Ada? Is Sakura-chan annoying cause she's always on your mind?" Shizuka teased.
Sasuke froze. His sister couldn't grin any wider.
"And is it because you always talk about her when it's just between you and me?" Shizuka asked pointing to herself.
Sasuke cringed once again. Damn her...
"It's okay it's okay that you won't admit it. Like Gai-senpai always says: its the springtime of youth."
"I've already heard enough of that shit from fuzzy-brows."
"I bet you anything your hormones were going out of control when you were in the apartment with Sakura-chan alone..."
"Will you just shut up?" Sasuke retorted.
"Did a naked Sakura-chan come in your dreams--"
"SHIZUKA-NEISAN WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT ME TO DO TO GET YOU TO SHUT UP??!!"
Shizuka grinned.
In the Konoha streets, Sakura was at walking around the village along with Hinata and Ino. They were all having a jolly good time, chatting with each other about their days with their teams.
"Mou, Shiukamaru is being so lazy these days!" Ino complained.
"Yah think?" Sakura replied sarcastically.
"Sakura why don't your team have a lot of missions?" Ino asked. "My team are have missiosn the minute we finish one! It's not fair!"
"Hm, I don't know either." Sakura replied.
"M-m-maybe Tsunade-sama w-w-wanted S-sasuke-san to have some t-t-time to bond with his sister again," Hinata suggested.
"Well from the looks of it, Shizuka-san and Sasuke-kun are really siblings," Sakura replied. "Just look at the way they act to each other! I swear I think they already had enough bonding. If it keeps going, Sasuke-kun is gonna get killed."
"Yeah, but I really look up to Shizuka-senpai!" Ino exclaimed. "I heard she got her sharingan before she graduated from the Ninja Academy, which she graduated when she was only 7! and once studied under Tsunade-sama!"
"Ino-chan, how do you know these things?" Sakura asked.
Ino only giggled. Suddenly, Hinata tensed up and looked back and forth.
"W-w-what..." Hinata muttered.
Sakura glanced at Hinata. "Hinata-chan, are you okay?"
"Y-y-y-yeah...uh--" Hinata replied shyly. "I-I-I just realized I f-f-forgot my w-wallet back at the restaurant!"
"But Hinata-chan, we weren't in a--"
"I'll be right back!" With that, Hinata started running the other direction.
Ino and Sakura just stared at her awkwardly.
"That's weird, we didn't go to a restaurant." Ino explained.
"That's what I'm worried about." Sakura replied.
"Do you think she secretly has a date with Naruto?"
"Hell no! If it was, Naruto would just say they're 'hanging out,'"
The two ended their conversations as they continued their walking.
Hinata walked to a dark alley, a dead end at the other side. She looked back and forth, then suddenly smiled.
"Sasuke-san, you can come out now." She said.
Down from the roof came the one and only Uchiha Sasuke. He had a not-so happy face and sighed.
"Hinata-kun how did you find me?" He asked.
"I thought your charkra was familiar." She explained. "Why are you following me and the others?"
Sasuke muttered curses under his breath. Once again, he sighed.
"S-s-s-shizuka neisan made me uh.." Sasuke paused for a moment.
"What is it?" Hinata asked once again.
Sasuke gulped. "...she's.."
"She's forcing you to ask Sakura out right?" Hinata smiled.
Sasuke tensed up. "H-h-h-how the hell do you know?"
"Shizuka-san told me and besides..." Hinata continued. "I did tell her your crush on you-know-who after what you did to me and Naruto."
Sasuke cringed. "D-d-d-damn you, Hinata-kun... you're getting back at me aren't you?"
Hinata giggled. "How did Shizuka-san managed to get you to do it?"
Sasuke scratched his head. "Blackmail me by telling Sakura I saw her naked when we we're together in an apartment."
"Wait, you two were in an apartment?" Hinata asked. "Alone?"
"Yes, but we didn't--"
"Oh Sasuke-san I know you better than that!" Hinata exclaimed. "You saw her naked, didn't you?"
"Let's not go that far Hinata-kun--"
"We're you sleeping with her too?" Hinata teased.
"DAMN IT WHY THE HELL ARE YOU SO FREAKING SHY WITH EVERYBODY ELSE AND TORTURING ME LIKE HELL??!!"
Hinata giggled. "I don't know; Maybe it's because you've always been a good friend to me."
Sasuke grunted.
"Fine, I won't tell Sakura about this, okay?" Hinata suggested. "Nothing else in return."
"Actually no. I made a promise to you a long time ago." Sasuke explained.
"Hm?" Hinata's curiousity arose. "What was it?"
"I told you if Naruto broke you're heart.." Sasuke said. "...I'll break his legs."
Hinata chuckled. "Don't worry. If you break Sakura's heart, I'll break your legs."
"Like you can." Sasuke said sarcastically.
Hinata sighed. "You still think you're the strongest between the two of us, do you?"
"That's because I am."
"Alright. Now what are you waiting for? Go ask Sakura out right now!" Hianta exclaimed.
"Hinata-kun it's not that easy for a guy--"
"Now!" Hinata yelled.
"Fine." Sasuke grumbled.
And so our young Uchiha sets.
To be continued.
