Ch-2 A Problem to solve

"Ino just-" Sasuke sighed and looked really upset of what Itachi has done to his girlfriend's best friend.

(Yes I know you must be thinking why I paired up Sasuke and Ino together. In the story they will only last a few chaps but…something distracts Sasuke from Ino... hmmm…)

"Ino can I just talk to Sakura for a moment?" Sasuke asked as Ino nodded.

"Sasu-kun I have to go now, it's late." Naruto and Ino said to Sasuke and he also nodded.

He went uptairs and knocked on her bedroom door.

"I don't want to talk to anyone right now, just please leave me alone" she sobbed.

"Can I just-just talk to you for a sec?" Sasuke stuttered, thinking of what he will do just to comfort her. "Fine" is the only word he heard from the door.

"What is hic it?" she tried to make her sentences as clear as possible.

"Well I do want to help you to um be happy again"

Sakura looked at him dumbfounded thinking when 2 years ago he was very cold to everyone.

"W-why are hic you, I mean, hic why do u want that?" she asked.

"Since Ino is your best friend and Naruto is just well, also one of your best friends too and they went home I just figured out if I can do something"

"Why are you being hic so nice to me now? Unlike before when you always ignored me" Sakura said trying to stop crying.

"I-I don't know." Sasuke stuttered.

"Look I know that Ino is my girlfriend and you're her best friend. She's pretty much worried about you. I just want her and you to be happy," he explained.

"Oh I see then. I uh- why don't you go, I kind of need some time alone"

"Are you sure? Ino will be upset if she finds out I left you depressed and-"

"Please, just go" he nodded.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Sasuke! What did you do to her! You better tell me!" Ino said furiously.

"Hai, Hai, I told her that if she wouldn't stop crying, you would be upset and you would start hitting me again" he explained.

"Baka! You do know that sometimes she tells me to hit you! Because you kept ignoring her when she kept saying hi!" she said pounding on Sasuke.

"But I didn't hear her!"

"Because you only paid attention to me and sometimes Naruto!" she yelled. Then there was 3 minute silence.

"Why did you try to help her?" Ino asked curiously.

"Because my brother is a part of this mess"

"And? I thought you hated your brother?"

"But your best friend Sakura is part of it. So it relates to us both."

"How about Naruto?"

"We are all friends, so he can be part of it." Sasuke said.

"Part of what?" Naruto said popping out of no where.

"Naruto sigh what are you doing in my house?" Ino asked.

"I dunno, I heard my name and something must be up. Hey um.. Ino? Do you have ramen in this house? I've been searching up and down and-" Naruto said searching the fridge.

"Naruto, this is serious, and you just ate ramen 10 minutes ago didn't you?"

"Yeah but-"

"Just help us solve this Sakura problem" Ino said. There was yet another silence. This time they were thinking what to do with Sakura's problem since they don't have the heart to just let her be depressed.

"Ohh! I know!"

"What is it Naruto?" Sasuke asked impatiently.

"Why don't they send letters to each other every once a month?" he suggested.

"That's a great idea!" she said sarcastically. "but we don't know Itachi's address!"

"I do" Sasuke said, both Ino and Naruto looked at him.

"Great! yawn! lets go home.…" Naruto said looking at the clocked which says 11:57 pm.

"Why don't you guys stay overnight? It's already dark outside" Ino suggested.

"Your parents though"

"They went away for a month for business and their anniversary. And besides don't worry we have extra rooms. Sasuke you can stay in the guest room. Naruto you get the living room."

"Why do I get to sleep on the couch while he sleeps on a bed!"

"I like him better, he's my boyfriend and so you'll be near a kitchen to eat."

"Oh okay!"

"Oyasumi!" everyone said.

'I hope Sakura is okay' Sasuke thought.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
