WHO IS SHE?

They were the best of friends and she had to leave. They met again but she doesn't recognize him. It's been years after she left. 'How could this be?' SASUSAKU

PARTY

'sigh! Nothing exciting ever happens here' It's Sakura's 3rd day at work. She's sitting at her desk, right next to the door. 'I've been sitting here for an hour!' She looked at Sasuke who seems to be reading. She doesn't really know because he had his chair turned the other way facing the window so you won't really know what he's doing. 'he seems to be quite, I thought he had a meeting.'. Curious of what he was doing, she stood and checked up on him. She tapped on his shoulder with no response.

"hey, don't forget you have a meeting" with that she went back to her des

"uhm, Sasuke the meeting's already started" she called after 10 minutes

"Sasuke!" She turned his chair to find out that he was . . .

"s-sleeping?"

Yup, Sasuke was leaning on his chair, peacefully sleeping with an opened book in his hands. Sakura felt annoyed. 'he's sleeping. . .at work!' His eyes twitched then slightly opened. He looked at Sakura who was right in front of him. 'why is she here?' he kept on looking at her. 'oh right, she's my new sec.'

"what time is it?" he asked her

She checked her wristwatch "9:40"

Quickly he stood up "damn it, I'm late!" he reached his folder and went straight to the meeting

'that's what he gets for falling asleep' Sakura thought

Lunch time ... She was sitting next to Ino while eating her lunch. Neji sat across them beside Sasuke who was about to finish his meal. This time, he didn't forget his meal because it was Sakura who was carrying it everyday. The others were sitting with them as well.

Neji " anyway, me and Hinata are having a party over at our mansion this evening"

Ino "really, what time is it?"

Hinata "9:00, I'm h-having N-Naruto w-with me" Naruto nodded

Neji "I'm taking Tenten as well"

Ino "alright then, if that's the case, I'll take Shikamaru with me"

Shikamaru 'how troublesome' "oh sure"

Then, the others turned their heads to Sasuke and Sakura who were sirring across each other.

"w-what are you looking at?" Sakura wondered as she looks at her friends.

"you're going with Sasuke right?" Tenten stated

"who said I was going WITH her!" Sasuke rebelled

"well . . . we were hoping that you'd be taking her to the party" Naruto suggested

"o come on. All of us have our companions, you should at least have yours" Ino pleaded

The said pair looked at each other for a few seconds then looked away feeling annoyed.

"fine" Sakura said irritated

"like I care" Sasuke said in the same way

"then that's final, anyway you don't need to look formal" Neji stated

"hey Sakura, make sure you'll wear the dress we bought you" Ino suggested.

"alright"

That night. . .

"come on Sakura, it's almost time" Sasuke was already ready. He was wearing a simple blue tshirt with tints of red flames on the bottom part. He wore a maroon pants and black rubber shoes. He also wore his navy blue jacket and the necklace he always wear. He was waiting by the stairs.

"coming" Sakura went down wearing the said dress her friends bought for her. Her hair was in a neat half-pony style. She wore pink sandals, silver bracelet, heart shaped earings and the necklace Sasuke gave her years ago. She doesn't really know why she has it but she kept on thinking that it might be a gift from someone special. Truly it was, but she doesn't know it.

'wow, she's . . . gorgeous' Sasuke kept on staring at his former best friend as she approaches him.

"is something wrong?" she asked her friend.

He looked away quickly with faint tints of red on his cheeks. She didn't notice it.

"n-nothing"

"ok then, let's go they're waiting"

They both entered the Hyuuga Mansion where their friends were waiting for them. This was strange because most of the guest were staring right at them. None of them really wore formal clothes. Just plain pants, skirts, tshirt, shoes or anything.

"wow, they sure are a cute couple" a man named Kakashi whispered

"I'm certain that the boy's Uchiha Sasuke, but who's the girl with him?" a woman named Tsunade wondered

"wow! Sakura, you're absolutely gorgeous!" Ino praised

"it's a good thing you went with Sasuke, you two are perfect" Tenten acknowledged

"anyway, if you want to eat, there's the buffet table, if you want to dance then go ahead." Neji stated. "me and Tenten are going to have a bite. You guys do whatever you want" He and Tenten went ahead and sat beside Hinata who was with Naruto as she watches him eating a huge pile of ramen.

"come on Shikamaru let's dance, you too Sasuke, Sakura." Ino pulled Shikamaru and Sasuke to the dance floor. Sakura followed as well. Ino went ahead with Shikamaru and left Sasuke together with Sakura. None of the two were actually dancing. Just then the music slowed down and was playing soft music. They both saw Ino and Shikamaru slow dancing.

"they sure look romantic" Sakura stated.

'I give up' "you do know how to dance, do you?" Sasuke asked

"of course" Sakura replied

"want to dance?"

"sure" Sakura placed her hands on his shoulder as his hands were placed on her waist.

Tenten "finally, they're dancing. Come on Neji let's join them"

Neji "sure"

Naruto "let's dance, Hinata"

Hinata "o-ok"

Sasuke and Sakura kept on dancing. Probably lost in their own worlds. They looked into each others eyes. Not knowing of what they're doing, their eyes slowly closed as their faces drew closer. Their lips were only an inch away from each other until

"hey Sakura" they both parted as they heard Ino calling.

"I'm going to eat now, come on" she continued. Sakura left Sasuke and went to Ino who was waiting for her. 'What just happened?' the same question entered their minds. Just then, Neji approached Sasuke and invited him to a conversation with the others.

Hours passed and it was now almost midnight.

"hey Sasuke, can we go now? I need to sleep." A sleepy Sakura asked.

"sure" then he turned to the others "bye"

He and Sakura left and rode his car. Sakura sat beside him and instantly fell asleep. Her head was now resting on his shoulders as he drives the car slowly afraid to wake her up.

Finally it's finished. Still, no idea what to do with the missing parents. I'll think about it soon so the story can actually end. Anyway please do review. And thanks for the reviewers of this story. Don't worry and I'll think of more ideas.
