Lily: heh, i decided on who i'm going to try and set Sasuke up with... Neji! Screw-chan! *falls over laughing*
Neji: -.-' it's not that funny...
Lily: no! but i can just see Sasuke doing one of his smirks and saying, hey, neji, you wanna screw?' nyahahahahahhaha
Phantom: *snort* screw...
Fly-Girl: heh.
Neji: _
Lily: anyway, the point of this little authors note is to tell you that i am extremely depressed(check my diary)and that because of school and parents and the fact that i am very Shikamura-ish and many other things i may not be able to update as regularly. Gomen nasai minna-san. PS. the plot has suddenly gotten very confusing on me.
Can't you see them?
Chapter Six
Catching fish in their element
Sakura ran across the water, not a single splash following her feet. She paused to stare down in the murky water of the lake, watching as the koi swam around under her. Sakura lay on her belly on the top of the water. She pulled some of her chakra back, waited and then suddenly darted her hand into the water, pulling out a sparkling gold koi. She giggled as it thrashed in her hands and dropped it in the plastic bag full of water that she was holding. She already had four fish.
Sasuke trotted across the water to her.
Do you have four? he asked.
Yeah, Sasuke-kun. I guess that's all eight, then?
The two began to walk back across the water in silence. Sakura smiled up at Sasuke.
Sasuke-kun, you know, I think that... that catching fish in their element is a lot like being in love. It's hard and things just slip right out of your fingers but it's so much fun.
Sakura blushed and ducked her head realizing just how silly she must sound.
Ah, gomen. That was sort of weird. But I... I really do mean it...
She trailed off as they began to walk back on land.
Sasuke didn't let on, but he silently agreed with Sakura. But... being in love with Naruto wasn't really fun, he didn't like it. It hurt. Catching the kitsune had become an obsession. Obsession? Is that what it was? Infatuation? Sasuke blinked. Well, he would see how things went and work it out from there.
Ah, Sasuke-kun, what's the address of the house that we're talking the fish to?
Here, this one.
Huh, it seems familiar...
It does.
They came to the house and knocked on the door. A boy wearing a chinese tunic and pants, with arm and leg wraps and a Hitai-Ate band tied around his waist hair answered the door. He blinked his dark, long lashed eyes that were nearly covered y his green bangs, tiny spots of pink appearing on his pale cheeks.
Ah... ah... Sakura-sama! (AN: i know he doesn't call her this, but it just seems like the sort of thing he would do.)
Oh, Lee! Is this your house?
Um... yeah... he glanced at the plastic bags that they were holding. You're the ones who took the mission to get the fish?
Yes. Um... where should we bring them?
Oh! Um... come around the back. That's where the pond is. Gai-chan said we needed some more fish. I asked him why we didn't get them, but he said it would do some shinobi good to get any easy mission. Lee smiled and blushed as he lead them around to the backyard.
The green haired boy stood and watched as Sasuke and Sakura put their bags down.
Sakura-sama, would you like something to drink? he flushed as he asked the girl.
she smiled and followed him into the house.
Sasuke smirked. He would obviously be putting the fish in the pond on his own. But that was fine. He always thought that green and pink did go together rather well.
Lily: i know, it's short, but i am a Shika disciple! i love Lee, Shika, Gaara, Naruto and Kakashi by the way. sasuke's ok but Shika is so... *drool*
Neji: hey, what about me...
Fly-Girl: let's go, screw.
Neji: :(
