Back to that Time

Part 31: Happy

When Sasuke left the bathroom, he found Kagome talking to Naruto, calmly handing him a bowl of rice at their small table. She noticed immediately when he left the bathroom, turning to him with a smile. "Come and eat! Naruto found us a place!" She said, running over to him and grabbing his hand. "Its even got a little bit of land, Sasuke!" She went on, dragging him to the table.

He sat down, never allowing his feelings to show as she handed him food. His eyes turned to Naruto. "Have you talked to Sakura?" Naruto asked him. Sasuke snorted and he watched as Kagome's positive attitude died, a somewhat pained look on her face. She quickly recovered, but Sasuke saw it already.

"She assumed I was using Kagome, I informed her otherwise." He said as Kagome sat at the table, close to his side. She smiled sadly and turned her eyes to Naruto.

"Gomen, Naruto, I'm afraid we made her cry." She said and Sasuke rolled his eyes.

"Don't apologize." Sasuke snapped and Kagome winced. Sasuke sighed. "You're too kind for your own good."

Naruto blinked as he watched the two, and watched as Kagome pouted. "Its not like she meant to hurt my feelings..." She murmured and Sasuke sighed.

"Believe what you want, I'm not going to convince you otherwise." Sasuke said and Kagome smiled.

"I could see it, she felt bad after telling me what she did. Besides, now she'll probably think about how mean you are to her—don't give me that look! You are mean to her! Anyway, Naruto, you should look her up, she's probably needing a friend right about now." Kagome rambled on before popping some rice and fish into her mouth.

"I met Kakashi, too! That was fun! Sasuke got all flustered-"

"Kagome!" Sasuke snapped out, a faint blush dusting his cheeks. Kagome grinned.

"Even with Naruto? Sasuke, I'm a very affectionate person, you're going to see some P.D.A. Now and then, get over it." Kagome giggled out, giving his leg a pat. Sasuke grunted and went back to his meal as Naruto let out a loud laugh.

"Sasuke the look on your face!" Naruto choked out, falling backwards as he laughed. "Oh man!" He sat up suddenly, grinning. "You know, I was all pissed and stuff when he took you away, Kagome. Seriously, I was going to fuck his shit up." Sasuke snorted at this. "But, you look happy."

Kagome smiled brightly, wrapping her arms around Sasuke's arm. "Hai!" Sasuke blushed, but looked down at her with a small smile.

Naruto grinned. "So, who wants to see the new place?"
