Chapter seven - Confession
'Immi? are you there?', Sasuke knocked on the door. 'I didn't meant to hurt you or something'. 'Go away!', Immi yelled crying from her room. How did things happen as they just did. Why? Why at a time like this? She cried. 'Meeew',Shadow gave her a cup. Immi grabbed the cat and hugged it tight. 'Oh Shadow i just don't know how to handle all this stress' , she said and tears wetted the black cat. 'Immi? may I come in 'tebayo?'. Naruto knocked on the door. Immi sniffed. 'Who's with you?'. 'Nobody. Just me,myself and I', Naruto replied. Immi walked to the door and unlocked it. Then she walked back to her bed. Slowly the door opened and Naruto walked in. He closed the door and walked towards Immi.
'Immi what happened just back there in the living room?', Naruto asked and goes sitting next to her. Immi looked at him. 'I-I don't even know for sure myself. But it seemed Sasuke tried to kiss me...', She said and another teardrop felt down on her face. Naruto laid an arm on her. 'I saw, but why are you so sad?',He said and looked at her. Immi crawled against Naruto and cried silently. 'It's just...',She sighed. 'I have very much to deal with at the moment'. 'You're still in your stomach with the Hokage's news?',Naruto asked. Immi shook her head. 'No. It's...something else...' , she said and looked outside. 'May I ask what it is?', Naruto asked. Immi stared out of the window. She sighed. 'Before I came to Konoha I was in this organisation'. 'What kind of organisation?', Naruto asked. 'Doesn't matter. But anyway, in that organisation i was partnered with a really nice guy. But after some time, we discovered we felt more for each other then just friendship.We started a relationship in secret.After some time the other members and the leader found out. Their first reaction was shocking, but after some time they got used to it. Unfortunate,that's the time when my partner decided to take a huge step'. Another teardrop slided down on her cheek. Naruto layed an arm on her. 'How huge?', he asked. 'He..asked me to marry him', she replied. She suddenly grabbed her pillow and cried very hard.
She cried for anonymous minutes. 'Do you want me to send everyone home?', Naruto asked. Immi looked at the clock and shook her head. 'It's 9 'o clock. Go back to the others, i'll be right there'. 'Sure?', Naruto asked worried. Immi nodded. Naruto stood up and left the room. Immi walked to the bathroom and washed her face.Then she walked back to the living room. The others were just chatting. She could feel everyone staring while she walked towards Ino and the rest. 'Is everything allright now?', Ino asked. Immi nodded. 'Excuse me, I have to apologize to someone...', she said and walked up to Sasuke who was staring out of the window. 'Sasuke?'. Sasuke looked up. 'Look Immi if I've hurted you or something, I'm sorry. I really didn't intend to-'. Immi putted her hand on his mouth. 'I'm the one who must apologize. I over-reacted'. She looked at Sasuke. Sasuke looked back. 'Well...Just friends I guess?', Sasuke smirked. Immi nodded. 'Now give me a hug', she said and gave Sasuke a hug.Sasuke hugged back. 'I don't want to lose you as a friend',Immi said and grabbed him tighter. 'I don't wanna lose you either', Sasuke said and kissed her on her forehead. Immi smiled. 'Shall we go back to the party?', she said and gestured at the others. Sasuke laughed. 'You go, I don't really feel like dancing'. Immi raised her shoulders and walked towards the girls. 'Just friends?', Ino asked. Immi nodded.
She looked at Sasuke. And Sasuke looked back. Immi smiled, Party indeed...
