I'm sorry it took me so long! I'll update faster now. I redid this chapter three times though…'twas hard for me to write. And I just realized I forgot the most importantest things:

DISCLAIMERS AND THANK YOOOUS

So here's the first: I DON'T OWN ANYTHING NARUTO RELATED!

The second is after the chappie .

Sakura massaged her forehead, trying to get rid of her headache. Her elbow leaned on the high counter while she sat on the tall plush stool in her favorite coffee shop. The pounding continued on as she pressed her palm against her head. She dropped her hand from her face and picked up her coffee. Taking a slow sip, Sakura almost spilt it all over her red shirt when a mysterious person ran up and grabbed onto her shoulders. Her eyes wide, Sakura pulled another hand up to her coffee to settle it. Before she could turn to see her silent attacker, a head popped over her shoulder.

"Hello, Sakura!" Tenten greeted her. A smile ran over Sakura's cherry lips as her heartbeat slowed to a normal pace. Tenten let go of Sakura's shoulders and sat down on the stool beside her friend where her coffee was already placed. "Tenten, I haven't seen you around for a while. It's nice to see you!" Sakura said almost cheerfully as she hugged her friend. Tenten held up a wide smile as she said, "Ah, me and Neji have been together a lot recently." Tenten giggled as Sakura smiled wider. "That's great Neji finally asked you out. I knew he was going to sooner or later." She said as she picked up her coffee again. "I guess it was later!" Tenten said jokingly. "Ah, it's so great that he did though." She picked up her coffee and sipped it; a smile still visible while Tenten was drinking. "I'm happy for you." Sakura said softly.

I am happy. It's only…how am I going to deal with my problem? Suddenly Sasuke shot into her head and she frowned. Her sight placed intently on her swaying coffee, Tenten said, "I'm happy for me too! What about you Sakura? Did you hook up with Sasuke?" she grinned as she questioned Sakura. Totally forgetting Naruto, Sakura grinned. "Last night I was over at his place." Tenten almost spewed out her coffee as she sipped. Her eyes were wide as she set down her cup quickly. "Oh my god. Tell me everything!" She squealed. Sakura blushed as she started on her story, still leaving out any part that had Naruto in it, "Well…"

His foot tapped on the floor impatiently as he debated pressing 'talk' on his phone. He held it in his right hand, his left pointer finger hovering over that button. Sasuke's unruly black bangs shaded part of his vision but he frowned for another reason. "This is driving me crazy." He spoke softly to himself. Sakura wanted to keep distance for while, and he knew it. Part of him wanted to obey this, the other part wanted to totally ignore it and hold her like he did last night. After at least 10 more minutes of this, he stopped tapping his foot. A deep sigh ran over Sasuke's lips as he placed the phone gently on the table in front of him. Better let Sakura tell me when she's over this thing, Sasuke thought. Pushing back his blue tinged bangs, Sasuke turned around and started to walk down his long hallway. As he walked, his hands found the edge of his shirt and pulled it up and over his head. He dropped his shirt the moment it was off, letting it lay crumpled on the floor. Tilting his head to the ceiling, he breathed in deeply and closed his eyes. Sasuke ran a hand against the wall, counting each door panel it hit. After 3 doors he stopped, knowing this was his room. Sasuke walked into his room and closed the door quietly behind him. He walked over to his bed and dropped onto it. Again, he closed his eyes and let himself think of Sakura.

How she smiled…laughed…frowned…blushed…kissed.

For once in his life, Naruto ate his ramen slowly. He didn't have the energy to shovel it like he usually did. The ramen stand was empty, other than the waitress, Ayame, working at there that night, and the blonde. Naruto's shoulders were hunched over and he was deep in thought. Ayame, knowing Naruto quite well from his frequent stops to the ramen bar, noticed something wrong.

"Naruto" She started while patting a bowl dry. Naruto looked up from his half done bowl and swallowed a noodle. "Hai." He responded. "Do you want to talk about it?" She asked him, getting right to the point. Ayame continued to stare at the young boy and placed the now dry bowl down on the back counter. Picking up another damp bowl, she started drying that one while keeping her eyes set on Naruto. He sighed and looked back down to his ramen. "Not really." He replied quietly. She smiled at him and placed down the second bowl "If you do, I'll listen. Do you want another bowl of ramen?" She said.

Naruto closed his eyes tightly, confusing Ayame. The young woman saw a tear stroll down Naruto's pale cheek and over his whisker like scars. He didn't respond to Ayame's question, instead he took advantage of her offer and spilt out everything he was thinking. "I broke up with Sakura today. I found out last night was filled with Sasuke and her madly kissing and groping." Ayame's smile disappeared, replaced by a frown. She felt sorry for the boy. All his life he had been hated for carrying the fox demon and now his girlfriend decides to cheat on him.

Naruto gulped, putting together his thoughts and went on, "I'm mad at her but at the same time I'm not. I can't be…I just…" He stumbled over his forming words, uncertain what he was trying to say. "Naruto, if someone cheats on you it's fair to feel mad at them." Ayame stared down at the gloomy boy.

"No it's not! If last night I was at home it would have been fair, but I wasn't." Naruto cried. His tears were stopping but he was still wrecked by this whole situation. Ayame stared at Naruto, analyzing him. "Where were you?" she asked softly. A choked sob escaped Naruto's throat and he looked down at his bowl. "I was at Ino's."

Naz's-Greatest-Raps: I like your kyuubi idea! Thanks for reviewing…and I've gotten used to reviewers angry at Sakura…sigh I feel bad for making Sakura seem so mean!

Aikuchi Shikaku: well, he didn't really shy away before the relationship…jeez that sound so corny. I wanted to write NaruHina but I really don't think Hinata would go for random kissing.

AcidDaggers: and sometimes I think the cheating is the only reason you read. Haha.

xx-Tsumi-Chan-xx: Sorry about the wait…And yes, everyone is confused in my fanfic. Hehe, maybe I should just introduce other characters to make them confused too. Yes, that would be fun!

Barby: Yes, Naruto is in love. But with who! Another corny comment. I sound like that cliffhanger dude at the end of soap operas. Actually, is there even one? I don't watch soap operas…I always just thought that happened. Sorry about the wait…people write update soon but I'm just sooo sloooow…

Bevy-chan: I'm sorry! bows down at your feet I didn't think Hinata would go for random kissing…which I will put in soon?

Narutofan666: thanks for the many reviews .

EfrainMan: I hope this explains why he took it so well…I thought it would change the story a bit.

I love your reviews, so keep reviewing! I swear, the more reviews I get the more I want to write. SO REVIEW! smile
