Chapter 13: Promise
Sakura yawned and stretched as she got out of bed. After last night, she had gone strait to bed. She now crawled out oh bed and dressed, brushed her hair and teeth, and went out into the hallway to see if anyone else was up yet. As she passed the door she noticed Hinata still asleep. She couldn't tell Hinata about what Sasuke had told her because she had already been asleep at the time.
*The second she gets up I'll tell her* She mentally noted with a smile.
Sakura walked out into the hallway where see watched as the few people up walked in and out of the hotel. Last night Kakashi had said that they had nothing planed for the day, and that they could all do as they pleased.
*Perfect* Sakura thought to herself. After taking in the fresh morning air, she headed over to Sasuke's room and knocked on the door. It was Temari who answered - groggy and still in her pajamas.
"Is Sasuke-kun awake yet?" Sakura questioned the zoned out sand genin.
"Ya . . . " Temari trailed off with her eyes closed. "Sasuke come talk to Sakura. I'm going back to bed." She then shuffled back into the room as a fully dressed Sasuke appeared in the doorway. He was wearing a dark green shirt and black pants with numerous pockets. Naturally Sakura mentally drooled over him. (Rurouni: *joins Sakura in drooling over Sasuke*
C.D.: -_- *runs off and drools over Kakashi*)
They both stepped into the hallway, and Sasuke closed the door behind himself.
"What is it?" He questioned the pink haired girl.
"Sasuke-kun," she began "remember on the plane when you said you'd hang out with me?"
"Ya . . . " Sasuke said, not sure with where she was going with this.
"Well we don't have anything planed today, so you want to go somewhere with me? I'm guessing you don't have anything else you want to do?" Sakura smiled at him hopefully after saying this. It was true, Sasuke had nothing planned for the day. He had hoped to do nothing and by some miracle Kakashi would let them leave; not at all expecting Sakura to make him do something with her, and now had no excuse.
"Well I . . . Uh . . . Fine." Sasuke said reluctantly not knowing what else to do.
"Great!" Sakura gleefully exclaimed and then bodily dragged him out of the hotel by the arm. By then Naruto had crawled out of his room - still groggy - and had managed to drag himself into the hall. Sakura yelled back at him
"Me and Sasuke-kun are going to hang out today, we'll se you later!" Naruto glanced at them and didn't do anything - It was Sakura; meaning Sasuke obsessed fan girl. It probably didn't mean anything. He then shuffled down into the part of the hotel where they served breakfast.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Naruto was eating breakfast at a table by himself when Hinata came over and sat down across from him. Naruto looked up, acknowledging the shy girl.
"Oh, d-do you mind Naruto-kun?" She questioned with a blush.
*Well look who it is* Naruto mentally thought with a smile.
"Of course not Hinata! In fact I was going to go look for you, I want to talk to you." He said in his usual joyful demeanor.
"R-really?" Hinata replied surprised.
"Ya." Naruto said putting down his chopsticks to give Hinata his full attention. "I was talking with Neji last night, and I was wondering . . . " Hinata watched him expectantly and was even more surprised to see him blush.
*What's going on? What does Naruto-kun want to tell me?*
" . . . if you liked me? You know, as in love?"
Hinata stared blankly at him, far to surprised to think strait. Her face was burning up and it felt like she would explode.
"W-w-what?" She asked, wondering, almost positive, that she must of heard him wrong.
"Do you love me?" He asked again, trying to hide his own blush.
*I have to tell him, I can't hide anymore or else I'll never even have a chance. I have to . . . have to . . .*
"Y-yes. Yes." She replied, becoming firmly resolved with her response. "I love you Naruto."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sakura stood in the fresh morning air right outside the hotel room, with Sasuke at her side; somewhat dazed from being dragged out.
"So where do you want to go?" She said, almost hyperactively.
*This is so great! KYAAAAA!!!! HELL YA!!! Sasuke-kun is going to spend the day with me!!!! Not Ion, ME!!!!*
Sasuke, now having recovered from being yanked out remarked,
"I don't care. Lets just go where ever." As soon as he said it he regretted it.
*She'll probably make me do some weird girl thing with her . . . This is just my luck.*
"Alright then, lets go get breakfast I'm starving!" The pink haired girl said happily as she headed of down the street.
"I'm sure we can find somewhere if we just look around a-bit."
Sasuke sighed and followed. He had never been one for company and as he put it never would be. They both walked down the crowded streets passing by people going to and from work. It wasn't long before Sakura pointed out a small restaurant by the sidewalk.
"Lets go there, it looks like a good place." Sasuke sighed, but said nothing. They walked into the small building and sat down at a table near the back. A waiter then came over and took their order, and then left to tell the cook.
"It's . . . nice here." Sasuke mumbled, staring at the table.
"I'm glad you like it." Sakura said fondly as the waiter returned with their orders.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Gaara!" ten-ten exclaimed as she walked out of their room with the red headed sound genin.
"Lets go eat breakfast, almost everyone is up now and I'm sure they're already down there."
"I'm eating alone. Besides, eating is a waste of time." Gaara replied cold and matter-of-factly.
"No your not, come on, you can eat with me!" She said as she began running down the ramp way to the dinning area pulling Gaara along by the hand.
(What's with girls and dragging guys? ^^; Sasuke and Gaara: You're insane. -_-)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"So you do love me then." Naruto said, blushing even deeper.
"Yes. I do." Hinata said staring at the table in embarrassment. To her surprise, Naruto laughed. She looked up at him in shock, blushing even deeper. (is that possible? O_o)
*Naruto-kun, am I really that pathetic to you?*
"Hinata . . . Why didn't you tell me earlier? It's so funny because, well . . . I love you to . . ."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Neji had been up for awhile, and had gone down to eat breakfast and was halfway through it when Kiba walked over and sat down with him.
"What's up? Your up early, as usual." Kiba commented, with Akamaru snug in his jacket.
"Nothing." Neji said. "Why aren't you eating?"
"Me and Akamaru here already ate. So what are you going to do today? Kakashi said we can do anything we want."
"I'll probably just walk around town." Neji said distractedly as he scanned the tables. Everyone was up by now and only a few people were finishing the rest of their meals. He could see Itachi sitting by himself in a corner, with his back to everyone else in the room. But he didn't have much time to think about it because of the blond haired boy that caught his eye. He could see Naruto with his cousin talking at a table.
*Thanks Naruto.*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sasuke handed the waiter the amount owed for his and Sakura's meal, and then he and Sakura headed back out onto the street.
"That was nice huh?" Sakura asked him.
"Ya . . ." Sasuke said blushing. He had never acknowledged the obsessive fan girls that followed him everywhere (Ino: *proudly* My fan club and I even know his shoe size! Sasuke: _; Save me . . .) let alone spend a whole day with one.
"Come on," Sakura said smiling, "I know another place where we can go."
She then started to walk down the street towards her destination, Sasuke awkwardly smiling back at her.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
