Okay this is gonna be a disappointment to some of you. This chapter isn't Kakashi's turn yet. But please, enjoy the love break. And thank you to everyone who reviewed. They really make my day!
"Sakura?" Someone was calling my name.
"Ugh! What do you want now!?!" I roared at the sky.
"Whoa, you don't need to throw a hissy fit!" Ino emerged from the bushes with a wide smile on her face.
"Oh, its you."
"Well duh! Who else do you think it'd be? Sasuke?"
"Wouldn't surprise me." I mumbled.
"What is that supposed to mean?!" Ino asked.
"In short, it's been a long day. Actually, a long 2 hours." I replied.
"Don't act all mysterious with me Sakura. I saw you guys leave this morning and followed you. AND I saw you and Sasuke run off together!"
I sighed, "Fine. There's no denying that. But I'll spare you the details." I started past her.
"No way! You have to spill!" She stepped in front of me, "I could care less that you and Sasuke were in the woods together."
"Yeah right. You like him too much not to care."
"Well the fact that I'm gonna marry him makes me feel better about it." She smirked.
"You can have him." I said simply.
"WHAT!?!" Ino was in disbelief.
I started walking by her again but she grabbed my arm, "SAKURA! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!? The real Sakura would never say anything that stupid!"
I paused, "Maybe the real Sakura has changed."
Ino let go of my arm, "Wow. You're serious aren't you?"
I nodded.
She grabbed my hand and pulled me off my path, "Come on. I'm gonna figure out what happened even if I have to force it out of you."
"Ugh, I'm not in the mood!" I moaned.
"So?"
"So that's how tug-a-war was created." Ino confirmed my earlier thinking.
We were both laying on the grass with out legs resting on a tree which had fallen over. I wiggled my feet in the breeze.
"My exact thinking."
"So then what?" She asked.
I sighed, "I decided to go with Sasuke and we hung out at this really beautiful place. He showed off, as usual, and then he taught me how to skip rocks." I was getting lost in the memory, "I always wanted to know how to skip rocks."
Ino just looked at me. I was glad she didn't say anything…you know, Ino-ish.
"Then he kissed me." I looked at my toes.
Ino sat up, "NO WAY! How was it!?!"
I squinted, "Quick, really quick now that I think about it. And…well…honestly, it was horrible. It was just…plain basically. I imagined it to be more…passionate, but…"
Ino's eye was twitching, She was probably thinking along the lines of: How could he kiss her before me! And she didn't even like it!
"And then the truth came out." I continued.
"What do you mean? Does he really like you?"
"That's what I asked. But he messed up his plan and told me he just wanted me so he could recreate his clan."
Ino looked a bit confused.
"You see, he was trying to be sarcastic by saying that, but he didn't say it with the normal amount of sarcasm. So I confronted him and he got nervous. You could also see it in his eyes; he was lying."
"Oh." Ino hesitated, "So you and him…?"
I shook my head.
"You're giving up your life dream?!"
I nodded, "Take him. I know you want to."
"Really?! HA HA! Sasuke's mine!" She cackled.
I sat up, "Ino, doesn't it bother you that he isn't in the game for love but only for his own needs?"
Ino thought for a moment, "I guess you're right."
We both laid back down and stared at the sky.
"But it's so hard to give him up." Ino broke the silence.
I closed my eyes, "Yeah."
Ino changed the subject, "So, what were you doing with Naruto then?"
"Oh, don't even get me started about him!" I began to tell her about my insane experience with Naruto. She listened amazingly, with only 3 interruptions.
"How rude!" Ino commented after I was finished, "How could he eat your chocolate!? I mean guys are supposed to insist we eat it and if we don't…well…either way, they're not supposed to eat it themselves!"
"Forget the chocolate! He randomly kissed me! Now that's rude!" I argued.
"How come you're the one who's getting all the guys today?!" Ino complained, "You got kissed by Sasuke, kissed by Naruto, not that I'd want to be kissed by him but…not even Shikamaru will kiss me!"
I sat up, "Ino, Shikamaru doesn't even like girls."
"SO?!" Ino exclaimed.
"Well today so far has been a "love" filled day." I said flatly.
Ino laughed, "Yeah, next Kakashi will be begging for you to marry him!"
I shot her a glare, "You are not helping."
There was a crunch from behind some bushes, we both held our breath. A clump of spiky sliver hair bobbed up and down above the leaves. We sighed in relief.
"Well, speak of the devil." Ino said.
Kakashi-sensei emerged from the greens and looked up from his perverted orange book.
"Oh! Hello Ino; Hello Sakura. I thought you ran off with Sasuke?"
I groaned and fell backwards onto my back, covering my face with my hands.
"Was it something I said?" He asked.
Ino stood up, "I think I should be getting back to the shop. See ya Sakura!" Before she left she bent over and whispered into my ear, "Have fuuun." Then she proceeded to walk away.
I sat up again, "Yeah, you better walk away Ino-pig!!"
I know, the waiting must go on. But do not worry your pretty lil heads, The next chapter (which is the Kakashi chapter) will be up really soon. I am writing it as we speak, or read, or…you know what I mean! DDH
