Enemies

I woke up late in the morning. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I could still remember how I confessed my love for her, I smiled, Now, it's like a heavy rock behind me is gone.

After eating breakfast, I went to the Konoha tower to see the whole town from above. "Sasuke-kun, I've been looking for you." I turned around and saw Yukino. I blushed. She stood beside me. I can sense a Jutsu Technique around here, I thought. Yukino grabbed my arm and hugged it tightly. "Yu—Yukino?" "Yes, my Sasuke-kun," she looked at me dreamily. I smirked, "Or should I say, Yamanaka Ino." She backed away and showed her true form, "How did you know that it was me?" "It's obvious. Yukino doesn't act that way. You wanted to seduce others but you're a failure," I said, "Just leave me alone." Ino makes a face and walked away, pouting.

"What happened, Ino? Did it work?" Sakura asked. Ino shook her head, "No, it didn't work." Sakura sighed. Ino laughed, "And I have another plan that'll surely work." She whispered it to Sakura. She nodded and slowly showed a devilish smile.

Sakura woke up early than usual and went to the bathroom. She took a bath and changed her pajamas. So I'm really gonna do 'it', she thought. She walked downstairs, past her mother. "Where are you going?" her mother asked. "I'm going with Ino," she replied. As she stepped out of the house, she saw Ino waiting for her. "You ready?" she asked. Sakura nodded.

Damn, I thought, Who in the world would come over here this early! I opened the door angrily and to my surprise, it was Yukino. "O-Ohayou gozaimasu, Sasuke-kun," she said. "Ohayou… Would you like to come in?" I opened the door for her. She nodded slowly and walked in. "What made you come here early in the morning?" I asked as I closed the door behind me. "I just wanted to see you," she replied, "Of course. I wanted to show you how much I like you, alone and no one who'll see us," she smiled seductively and approached me. I backed away to the wall, "Wha-What do you mean?" I nervously asked. She suddenly dived for a kiss. I kissed her back, but… Wait! Yukino wouldn't do such a thing… I pushed her away and I tried to break her arm, "You're not Yukino, are you!" Just then, Yukino's form changed to Sakura, "How did you know?" she asked, ready to burst into tears. I glared at her, "Yukino wouldn't do such a thing like that," I opened the door, "Get out of here!" She lowered her face and walked out, "You really like her, do you?" I ignored her and quickly shut the door.

"Kaede Yukino," I said as I wrote it down, "For this special day, a day for lovers let me hold you tight. Brush away that lonely smile and… No, No, No!" I threw the paper away. I sighed, "What can I give to Yukino, this crappy song and this necklace?" I took glance at the necklace placed at the corner of the table. I smiled…

"kono atsui omoi wo

uketomete hoshii

I wanna cry for you

I want you to receive these warm emotions.

I wanna cry for you."

I stretched my arms, "Finally finished! Now I just need a rest…"

I knocked at the door. "Come in," Yukino said. I turned the doorknob and slowly opened the door, "Yukino?" "Ah. Sasuke-kun… I just thought that I could give you a visit," she said. I took a deep breath, "Yukino, do you want to go for a date? After all, it's Valentine's so… Will you?" She smiled, "Sound good."

"Maybe this isn't a good idea," Yukino said as she looked around the restaurant, "Sasuke-kun, let's find another restaurant." I smiled, "What're you talking about? This restaurant is fine." "But," she insisted, "The foods here is expensive." "Don't worry. I'm the one who's gone pay." I held her hands, "Just enjoy the day, ok?" She blushed and nodded.

"Here we are," I said as I sat, "We can gaze at the stars here. Come on. Sit beside me." "S-Sasuke-kun." "What is it?" I asked. "We are the only ones around here and—Ah! Maybe you plan on... doing 'something' to me here," Yukino said, looking at me suspiciously. "Where did you get that idea? We're on a date." Yukino sat as I took out my guitar. "Where did that guitar come from?" "I just placed it near a tree. I wrote a song for you," I started to play the guitar…

Reiji: This is from the Opening Song from Slam Dunk, Kimi ga Suki da to Sakebitai/I Want to Shout "I Love You". Make it a slow version with a guitar.

Sasuke: Yeah, whatever.

"mabushii hizashi wo se ni

hashiridasu machi no naka

tatakareta itsumo no you ni kata wo

kimi ni muchuu na koto ni

wake nante nai no ni

sono ude wa karamu koto wa nai

Starting my run in the middle of town,

bright sunlight at my back,

as always, you tapped my shoulder

I'm so enthralled by you

- yet for reasons unknown

your arm won't be linked to mine.

itsu no ma ni ka hitomi

ubawarete hajimatta

hanasanai yuru ga nai

Crazy for you

Before I realized it,

you stole my gaze, and it began.

I won't let you go. I won't have any doubts.

Crazy for you.

kimi ga suki da to sakebitai

ashita wo kaete miyou

kimi ga suki da to sakebitai

yuuki de fumidasou

kono atsui omoi wo

uketomete hoshii

I want to shout "I love you"

Let's try to change tomorrow.

I want to smash this freezing moment in time.

I want to shout "I love you"

Let's be brave and take a step forward.

I want you to receive these warm emotions.

takanaru kodou ni

mou uso wa tsukenai

On the noisy floor,

across from me at the crowded table,

I'm lost in your casual glance.

It feels like I'm in love with you,

yet it's like I'm being toyed with.

I can't lie to my soaring heartbeat

emotions anymore.

itsu ni nareba kawaru

kono modokashii yuujou

todoketai tashikametai

I take you away

When will it change,

this frustrating friendship?

I want to tell you. I want to make sure.

I take you away.

kimi ga suki da to sakebitai

I wanna cry for you

I want to shout "I love you"

Let's leave everything behind.

I want to find the words to melt your heart.

I want to shout "I love you"

I won't let you leave me tonight.

Let's end the days we don't get past

just gazing each other

I wanna cry for you

(Instrumental)

I wanna cry for you

I want to shout "I love you"

Let's try to change tomorrow.

I want to smash this freezing moment in time.

I want to shout "I love you"

Let's bravely take a step forward.

I want you to receive these warm emotions.

I wanna cry for you."

As I stopped singing and playing the guitar, I looked deeply into her eyes. I reached into my pocket and searched for the last gift I have for her. I held out the box, "Here." "It's too much, Sasuke-kun. I—" I grabbed her hand and placed the box on her palm, "Take it." She opened the box and saw a necklace with a lavender pendant, "Sasuke-kun." I smiled. I took the necklace and helped her to put it on, "It suits you well." "Arigatou gozaimasu, Sasuke-kun," she smiled. I held her cheek with my left hand and wrapped my right arm around her waist. "Yukino," I whisphered. I moved my hand to her chin and tilted her head upwards. I pulled her closer and placed a soft, tender and passionate kiss on her lips.
