Chapter Three
Sakura had slammed the door. "WHAT, NO WAY!!!" screamed Sakura now storming in.
"Sakura, she's already made her choice, Sasuke please take Kaoru-san to your house," the Hokage stated simply.
"Hn, fine, but she better not act like Sakura," Sasuke said. He walked out the door mumbling something about a stupid stalker. I trailed behind him quickly.
After a few minutes of silence and walking, Kaoru decided that she'd try to break the ice. Someone else beat her to the start though.
"… why did you want to live with me and not the idiot?" Sasuke asked.
"Uchiha-sama, please don't call Naruto-san that, he's brighter than you think," Kaoru pointed out.
"…Don't call me that, it sounds stupid, just call me Sasuke. Like the reset of my stupid fangirls,"
"You WANT me to be like them? But fine, I'll call you something different… how about Sasuke-san?"
"That sounds a little better, and no I DON'T want another fangirl," Sasuke shook with fear.
Kaoru giggled, "I never knew that someone so cold could be afraid of his own fangirls," Kaoru grinned. It wasn't the way the fangirls would smile at him, plastering on that smile in hopes that he'd go out with them. No. Kaoru's was real; her smile was happy and unexcited. The unexcited, made him happier because that meant that she didn't want to jump on him.
They arrived at his house. It seemed pretty plain and dreary on the outside. Kaoru felt a little sad looking at it, she wore that sad expression until they reached the door. Finally, Sasuke took notice.
"What's wrong?" Sasuke asked unemotionally.
"Nothing, it's just –I don't want to sound rude, but- this place seems to be buried in sadness… it feels like there was more than just you living here at one point in time… I'm really sorry; I'm prying into something that I shouldn't have!" Kaoru blushed from embarrassment when she realized she was ranting about something she knew nothing about. She then looked down, feeling ashamed.
Sasuke blinked in surprise, but then let his expression leave his face quickly and quietly.
