After a short talk with Naruto, Sakura left the river and walked home.
Now that Kakashi was gone, Sasuke decided to stay. No one was there to disturb him. He was alone, sitting next to a peaceful river that never stopped flowing. He leaned against a rock and skipped pebbles on the river. To his surprise, he was quite good at it because of the fact that he hadn't skipped rock for a long time.
He sighed in content and continued to skip pebbles. Right when he was about to throw the second pebble, he heard footsteps. . . . and they were getting closer.
~ Ugh, who is it now? Can't I get some peace? ~
When he turned around to see who it was, he saw Suzuki holding a bucket. He wondered what she was doing here. "Hey," he said.
She turned to him. "Oh, hi!" She said and ran to Sasuke. "I didn't expect to find you here so early,"
"I just came here to do some thinking. . ." he said softly.
~ What's with the bucket? ~
"I see," she replied. "Well . . . I gotta get back to work. Today's another busy day for me-but it's great to see you again!"
"Yeah," he smiled. Sasuke couldn't stop thinking about the bucket. "What's the bucket for?"
Suzuki held up the bucket. "You mean this? I have to fill it with water. My parents and I are making ramen and we ran out of water."
"I see," he said, chuckling at the thought of Naruto trying to steal their ramen noodles.
She noticed him. "May I ask what's so funny?"
Sasuke chuckled once more. "Oh, nothing."
"Hmm, okay. I'd better get the water. My parents are probably wondering what's taking me so long. Seeya."
"Bye," he said, watching as Suzuki filled the bucket with the clean river water and leave.
~ Suzuki seems so busy these days. . . is she trying to ignore me? ~
But he doubted it. He and Suzuki loved each other, and he knew it. Sakura loved him too, and he only loved her half as much as Suzuki. Should he hang out with either of them? He wished that he wasn't so "cute".
~ Damn, if I wasn't so good-looking, I wouldn't be stuck in a situation like this! ~
He thought if he should ask his parents for help, but what do they know? Absolutely nothing. But that's only what Sasuke thought.
~ My parents are of no use to me. They're just dumbasses. Kakashi wouldn't know either. He's just a teacher. ~
He stood and climbed up a tree, sitting on the closest branch he could find. He gazed down upon the river, noticing how small it was from this view.
Remembering that he had stayed at the river for a long time, he had no clue what time it was. He also remembered that Suzuki was going to eat ramen at this hour. "Perhaps it's a little near twelve. Either that or she eats lunch too early."
Sasuke yawned. He was getting bored. He realized that it was getting close to lunchtime. Home was the only place he wanted to go now. Sasuke hopped off the branch and landed safely on the ground. He then walked home.
