Lynn saw a shadow approaching and looked up to find Neji making his way to the girls. She quickly looked down and pretended not to notice him.
"Uh-hum." All the girls except Lynn looked up to find Neji staring down at them.
"Neji-kun? What are you doing here?" Hinata cast a worried look toward Lynn who was staring at her food.
"I want to talk to Lynn."
Lynn looked up and glared at him. "What do you want?" Neji closed his eyes.
"I want to talk to you…privately." Lynn didn't know what to do. But Ino did.
"Sure. You can go talk to her. We'll just be under this tree." She grinned at Lynn who was glaring at her. Neji made his way under another tree while Lynn sat down, not doing anything.
"Well? Go Lynn. Don't be rude! He wants to talk to you!" When Sakura and Ino finally persuaded her, she made her way to Neji. The boys sitting on the bench and the girls under the tree watched intently, straining to hear their conversation.
The two students stood under the tree like stupid asses before one of the finally started to talk. "Well, what do you want?" Neji closed his eyes again, trying to find the right words to say.
"I wanted to apologize to you for what I did the other day. I had no right to hurt you." He opened one eye, waiting for her reaction. At first, she stood their, taking in all that he was saying. Then suddenly, she grinned.
"You wanted to apologize to me? I would have done the same thing if you made one of my friends cry. Don't worry about it!" Neji stared at her. A sweat dropped down his forehead. This was easier than I thought.
"But I'm not going to accept your apology."
Neji's face turned shocked. "Why not?"
"I'll accept it if you become friends with Sasuke-kun again. You guys didn't have to fight."
"I suppose so…"
"Well?"
"Fine. I'll go apologize." The next he knew, Lynn was hugging him.
"Thank-you! I didn't want to feel guilty. I thought it was my fault you guys are fighting. But now that you're going to apologize, you guys won't be fighting anymore and I won't feel guilty anymore. You're the best Neji-kun!" Neji stood there, not knowing what to do. This girl is weird.
"Um…your welcome?" Lynn finally let go and started to laugh. "You've never been hugged by a girl before?" Neji's face became bright red, which caused Lynn to laugh harder. This made him smile.
"Well, see you later. And the next time I see you, you better be friend with Sasuke again…or else." She pretended to have an evil look on her face. This time, it was Neji's turn to laugh.
BBBBBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Luch is over.
"You shouldn't try doing that. It makes you look stupid." This caused Lynn to pout.
"But I still have one question for you."
"What is it?"
"What made you apologize to me? I know you wouldn't have done it if someone didn't help you." Lynn curiously awaited his answer. She needed to thank anyone who helped him.
"Gaara." Lynn almost fell down.
"Ga—aa—ra?"
Neji gazed at her questioningly. "Yeah…is there something wrong with that?"
Lynn managed a small smile. "Nothing. We better get to class. We might be late."
"Okay," said Neji cautiously.
Sasuke got into his car. It's a good thing I brought my car. Who knew it could rain this hard. He got inside and started the engine. He patiently waited for Gaara. They were suppose to go to the mall to shop for football equipment. Suddenly he heard someone yelling out his name. He saw Neji and Gaara standing in front of the school doors. If he wants to fight, then I'll give him a fight. He plastered on a cold mask and made his way to Neji.
"What the fuck do you want?" To his surprise, Neji put his hands up and smiled.
"Don't worry I want to say sorry for what happened."
Sasuke's face became colder. "If this is some kind of joke, then I'm not buying it."
"Don't worry. You were right. I had no right to hurt Lynn. I'm sorry."
Sasuke glance at Gaara's emotionless face staring at him. "Is he making you do this?" He gestured to Gaara.
"No. Someone just made me realize what I did was wrong."
Sasuke narrowed his eyes before his cold mask dropped. "I guess so. And I shouldn't have pushed you. I'm sorry, too." Neji smirked.
"It's all right." They did their 'secret' handshake and grinned at each other.
"But who made you realize what you did was wrong?"
"Lynn." Sasuke bit his lip. Neji and Gaara looked intently at him. He had been acting a little weird ever since Lynn transferred to Konoha.
"What's wrong?"
"That girl. She reminds me a lot about my mother." Neji gazed at him. Gaara and Sasuke rarely talked about their family. And since Sasuke's mom was deceased, it was weird.
"She kind of reminds me of my dad, too." There was a long silence before Sasuke said:
"You want to come with me and Gaara to the sports store? We're going to buy some equipment."
"Sure." The two made their way to Sasuke's car, but Gaara stayed where he was. He's emotionless face became a frown. Lynn made Sasuke and Neji remind themselves of their parents. Just who is that girl?
"Gaara, are you coming?" He nodded and followed the boys to a silver-gold car.
Lynn walked down the hallway. She heard steady beating on the roof. Please tell me that's not rain. I didn't bring my car today. She made her way to the main doors and walked slowly outside, afraid of what she might see.
A powerful gust of cold, wet wind almost knocked her to the ground. If you would have seen her right now, it looked like she was a little eight year old girl that was about to cry because she got a boo-boo on her knee.
"THAT'S JUST GREAT! IT'S RAINING AND I HAVE TO WALK TO MY MANSION WITH A SHORTS AND STRAPLESS SHIRT! JUST GREAT!" She slowly walked outside the school, making sure not to step on any puddles and staying close to the little roofs. She slowly walked on the sidewalk. She was about to cross the sidewalk when she notice there wasn't any little roofs to shield her from the rain. She was cold, shivering, and she didn't want to get wet right now.
She pouted and stood where she was, trying to decide what to do. Should she call Irene and tell her to pick her up, or should she just get wet and walk to her house. She was about to cross the street when a car honked at her. Lynn turned around trying to see through the droplets of water falling on the ground.
There, she saw a silver-gold Mitsubishi Montero Sport making its way to the edge of the sidewalk where she was standing. The window opened and their, she saw Sasuke and Neji in the front, and Gaara in the back left seat.
"Your going to walk to your house in this rain?" asked Neji.
"Yes."
"We'll give you a ride." Lynn was about to go inside when she caught Gaara glaring at her, again. She suddenly remembered that she had messed up his new shoes.
"No thanks. I could walk."
"In those clothes? You must be crazy. It's freezing out there! Come in. It's not like Gaara is going to bite you or something." Lynn tried to stop herself from running away. Gaara's face was getting darker and darker.
"No, really. I could walk. Beside, it's not that cold."That was the right moment fora big gust of wind to blow in Lynn's direction. Sasuke and Neji smirked.
"Fine, I'll ride with you guys." She went inside and tried to stay as far away from Gaara as possible. After a minute of riding, the car stopped again. Then, the car door to the right of Lynn opened. Since, she was leaning on it, she almost fell out. Luckily, a pair of arms stopped her. She looked up to find Naruto with a stupid smile on his face.
"Sorry. I didn't know you were there."
"You're riding with us?"
"Yup, now move." Lynn froze. That means she had to move closer to Gaara.
"Hello? Are you listening to me?"
"Yeah. I think so." The boys stared at her. She scooted down a little bit.
"You have to go down more." She scooted down a little more, so that she was almost touching him.
"Just a little bit more."
"But that means I have to touch him."
"Is that a problem?" The teenagers looked over at Gaara, who finally talked. As usual, he had an emotionless face, his green eyes focused on Lynn. Lynn tried to stop herself from whimpering and moved over, so now she was touching him. Naruto went inside the car and Sasuke started to drive again. Then, he said, "I forgot I had to get some gas. I have to go to the gas station. Is that okay with you Lynn?"
Lynn tried preventing herself from saying no and instead said "Yes." Too bad for her, there was a long, long, long, long, long, long,long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long,long, long, long, long, long, long line of cars. She looked down, and saw Gaara's shoes with apple juice. She almost laughed out loud but she covered her mouth.
Gaara got bored and took out his iPod. He turned it up and listened to his favorite songs. Lynn heard his songs and started to get annoyed. It was bothering her.
"Can you lower it down?" But he didn't pay attention to her.Gaara couldn't hear her although he knew she was trying to talk to him. Lynn groaned and tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around and scowled at her.
He took of his earphones and said, "What?"
"Can you lower that thing down? It's disturbing me." Now, the boys were listening to their little conversation.
"Or what? You're going to beat me up?" Lynn frowned and turned bright red. She turned the other way so she couldn't see his face. Gaara smirked and turned his iPod to full volume. Lynn's frown became deeper. But Naruto was smiling.
Lynn slammed the door to her bedroom and went to the bathroom. She turned the shower on and took a long, warm, soothing bath. She really needed one. Gaara's stupid iPod had bothered her and the gas station took such a long time. I knew I should have walked.
She just wanted to go up to Gaara and slap his face for acting so obnoxious. And she was about to. Fortunately, Sasuke had already arrived at her house. Lynn wouldn't have known what Gaara would have done if she had slapped him.
Gaara smirked as he went inside his mansion. He went to the roof and stared at the stars. The redhead had seen the face on Lynn when she got out of the car. She looked like she wanted to slap him. Fortunately, Sasuke had arrived in her house in time. She wouldn't have known what he would have done if she did slap him.
He just found out that Lynn lived across the street from him. He closed his eyes as droplets of wated poured down on him. Suddenly, he frowned. Gaara saw an image of a certain girl with blue highlights grinning down at him. His green orbs snapped open. Where the hell did that come from? I need to take a shower.
I love this chapter. It was the funniest. But I think I made Sasuke and Neji OOC. I updated my other story, too. Please read it. It's really funny. R&R
