The Mall And The Lunch Date
Sakura's POV
I was walking down the stairs to do my normal morning routines when something caught my sight. I smiled as I saw Ami and Sasuke lying on the couch sleeping peacefully. It's been a while since I've seen my sister this happy. I walked over to them and shook them lightly. Sasuke was the one to answer to this.
"What time is it?" He asked sleepily as he tried to rub the sleep away. I smiled.
"It's 7."I answered.
"7, it's too early." He grumbled, I giggled in response.
"You do realize that you and Ami are sleeping down here right?" I asked. He opened his eyes wide and stared at me then at Ami. He smiled and sighed.
"I'll wake her up and we'll meet you in the kitchen." He said. I nodded and left to the kitchen. No sooner had I arrived, Shika came tumbling down the stairs. I giggled as he yawned and stumbled the rest of the way to the kitchen counter.
"Morning." I said.
"Morning." He answered with another yawn. I kept staring at him and noticed that the guy was hot. Yup, he was but he can be so lazy. I sighed in a dreamy way which caused Shika to turn to look at me in a confused way. I giggled and continued with cleaning the kitchen until Ami and Sasuke walked in, well Ami stumbled in Sasuke walked in.
"Good Morning Ami, did you sleep well last night?" I asked my older sister with a small giggle. She was about to answer when she caught my actual question.
"Perv." She mumbled and I couldn't help but burst out laughing. Shika and Sasuke stared at us both with confusion.
"Not important." I said as I eyed Sasuke and Ami. Amaya ended up glaring at me and getting a confused expression from Sasuke until he too caught the actual question and blushed. I smiled satisfied at the chaos I created and took a seat next to Shika. Sasuke sat across us and Ami started to cook.
"Hey, where is everyone else?" Shika asked as he yawned.
"Hinata and Kiba went to school, Tenten had to go to work, same as Neji, Ino left with Naruto somewhere, probably your club to test it, and Gaara and his siblings said they were heading home and would wait for your call." I said. They all nodded but Ami brought up someone else I thought would have been better not mentioned.
"What about Shino?" She asked. I sighed and hanged my head low.
"He said he was going to go and get a job somewhere so he can help with stuff here." I answered. I heard that clattering from the pots and pans had stopped. I lifted my head up to see Ami had stopped and she seemed to be pissed. Sasuke was pissed too and Shika was edging closer to me because he was sitting in between me and Sasuke and he was getting afraid.
"To help around the house, who let him stay here?" Ami asked in a deadly calm tone.
"Um……………Tenten did." I answered softly. I was afraid she might blow us up or something but she surprised. Instead she sighed.
"Fine, whatever." She answered and went back to cooking. By now Shika and I were hugging each other but we let go when Sasuke turned to us a big grin plastered on his face. We dusted ourselves and just stared at the nothingness.
"Sakura, you working today?" Ami asked.
"Nah, I'm going to stay here, but if you need any……………….." I said with a giggle but Ami interrupted me.
"I was thinking we could go to the mall together." Ami said. I smiled real big.
"Yes." I beamed. Shika and Sasuke had to cover their ears from my sudden outburst but this just made my sisters smile.
" We'll leave after I get dressed." She said with a smile. I nodded and ate the food that was placed in front of me.
An Hour later
After Ami had gotten dressed we left in her car. We left behind Sasuke and Shika who said that they would find something to do after we asked if they wanted to come. Soon we arrived at the mall after a few minutes. We immediately got off and walked over to Papaya. Ami started to look at the different shirts while I followed silently looking at each shirt Ami had in her hand.
"You actually have enough money to buy all that?" I asked.
"Yup, go and look for clothes for yourself and we'll meet up once I get a skirt for each shirt." Ami said. I had a sweat drop when she said that. She has probably about 10 shirts right there and this store is expensive, unless she is using her check from her last job. I nodded and looked at the clothes nearest to my sister. I found about 10 different shirts and skirts I wanted to try on. Once we finished looking we went to the dressing room. It was so lonely, as a matter of fact, the entire store was quiet, not a lot of people were out today. Oh well.
"Sakura, I've noticed that Shika was stealing glances at you." Ami said out of the blue. I blushed. The guy is hot and I just so happen to have a crush on him, but I didn't know he felt the same way, I mean, he said it himself. He wanted a girl who would stay home and take care of the children while he worked and would cook for him and all that good stuff that I totally hate, ask anybody and they will tell you that I'm no housewife, let alone cut to be one, then again it's to early and we haven't even dated yet, I am so crazy.
"Oh really." I said nervously.
"Yup, and I think that you two will make a cute couple, regardless of his expectations for a wife, I swear, that boy needs to get out more." I heard Ami said as we walked into a dressing room each. There was two isolated in a corner where we wouldn't be disturbed so we chose those. I giggled as I remember the night after they moved in, we asked them what they expected from a girl. Not because we liked them like that but because Ami thought it would annoy them but instead it got her a kiss from Sasuke, same for Ino, Hinata blushed as Kiba gave descriptions of her. Neji got a very hungry kiss from Tenten when he said he already had what he wanted. And well Shika, well he is different, way different.
"Cherry, you still with me?" Ami asked using my old nickname.
"Yeah, but that still doesn't give me the idea that he likes me, maybe the guy just haves issues." I said as I began to undress.
"I guess, but I think we can find out if he likes you or not." I heard Ami say as I heard shuffling next door. Probably because she was fidgeting again, she always does that when she thinks an outfit is too cute for her. A second later her door open. I walked out soon after with a pink dress. It had red flowers at the bottom and it was a tube dress. The waist part had a thick red stripe going around it so it looked like it was two separate things. I smiled, I look cute in this. I looked over at my sister. She was wearing a pink strapless shirt that reached about 6 inches above her knees. Under it she was wearing a black jean skirt with chains. The shirt had red stripes going sideways. She looked so sporty and cute. I smiled as my sister began to fidget again as she looked at herself in the mirror.
"You look so cute, why don't you like it?" I asked as I locked arms with my sister and pushed her a little so we could both see ourselves in the mirror.
"Because, it's pink, no offense to your hair, but I don't like pink so much." She said. I giggled as my sister pulled the shirt a little.
"But the shirt is so cool, it looks like a real small dress, but it's actually a shirt, come on, you look cute." I said. She winced at the word I used to describe her which made me giggle.
"Cute is such a troublesome word." We heard behind us. We turned around to see Shika leaning against the doorframe that leads to the dressing room with his arms crossed. Sasuke was standing on the other side same position with a smirk on.
"What are you guys doing here?" Ami asked. Sasuke shrugged and turned to Shika. He turned around slightly with a blush as he spoke.
"We wanted to know if you two wanted to go to lunch with us." Shika said. Ami turned to look at me a big grin on her face. I scowled at her, she was right, and I hate it when she is right.
"Sure, let us go………….." Ami started to talk but I interrupted her.
"Sasuke, doesn't she look cute in this?" I asked. Ami blushed when I asked.
"I don't think she looks cute in that." Sasuke said. I frowned and so did Ami, oh I'm going to kill that guy. "I think she looks beautiful in that." He finished. I smiled as I turned to look at my sister. Now she was blushing, job complete.
"See, now we are going to buy these stuff, you guys don't waiting a few minutes while we pay for this do you?" I asked as I pushed Ami back inside to the dresser.
"Nope, we'll wait outside for you two." Sasuke said as he started to walk outside. Shika took one last look at me, and blushed, then left. Guys are so weird sometimes.
After Paying
Ami just paid for everything, yup, all 20 outfits. 10 of those outfit's being mine and the rest hers. We walked outside to see Sasuke and Shika standing outside next to a tree ignoring the two girls standing in front of them asking for dates.
"I told you, we already have girlfriends." Sasuke mumbled. Shika only nodded but the girls continued to ramble on and on about them being better and shit. Ami sighed and I only glared at the girls hoping that whatever power I have can actually hurt them. I felt myself being pulled over to the group and noticed Ami dragging me.
"Excuse me." Ami said as she pushed the girls out of her way and went over to Sasuke and kissed him passionately. The girls scoffed and walked away. Once Ami broke away Sasuke pulled her back and kissed her again. I sighed in awe and Shika only sighed.
"People, get a room." Shika said making Sasuke and Ami break away. I smirked. They are so cute together.
"Ah come on, don't be like that, I don't mind." I said in a dreamy tone. Shika only sighed again and began to walk away. I ran after him while Sasuke and Ami walked shortly behind us hand in hand. I smiled as I turned to look at them.
"Admit it." I said. Shika turned to look at me as if I was crazy.
"Admit what?" He asked.
"That they look cute." I said. He sighed and nodded.
"Yeah, but they shouldn't make out in public." He said.
"Why is that?" I asked.
"People will think bad, they usually do." He said. I sighed.
"But walking hand in hand isn't bad is it?" I asked.
"Nope, just as long as that is the only place they touch." He answered. I giggled knowing what he meant. Shortly after we arrived at this café. It was beautiful, it had trees surrounding the place making each table look like it was in it's own private room. The tables were small and had enough room for 4 people. Also, the tables were outside and there were waiters running from table to table getting every order.
"Come on, over here." Ami said as she pulled Sasuke to a table. I smiled and walked over to the table, followed by Shika. We sat across from Ami and Sasuke. Fortunately we only had two bags each so there wasn't much to carry. We each order our food and waited patiently for our food. It was me who broke the silence that suddenly befell us.
"So, is there a reason why you guys changed your minds about coming with us?" I asked.
"Sasuke dragged me here." I heard Shika mumble. I smiled when He hissed after being kicked by Sasuke.
"That's still not a reason." Ami said.
"Well, we just wanted to hang with you guys, if you don't mind?" Sasuke said.
"No, we don't mind." Ami said. I nodded. Soon after the waiter came back with our food and we began to eat. No later had we started to eat that my phone began to ring.
"I thought you turned that stupid thing off." Ami whined as I began to dig through my purse for the little thing.
"I guess I didn't." I said nervously. I found it and answered. "No, I'm with my sister……………………..but……………..wait………..now……………Okay, I……………" I couldn't finish my sentence seeing as Ami took my phone away and hung for me. Then she put away in her purse. Sasuke and Shika stared at us partially afraid of what I might do, but truth be told, I'm glad she did that. Denise is killing me here with all that work she is giving me.
"It's called a day off, if you don't tell Denise to back off with the work I will." Ami threatened. I smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, I will." I answered. I swear I saw Sasuke and Shika sigh in relief. I smiled and continued to eat. After we finished eating, Sasuke whispered something in Ami's ear, which got Shika annoyed, then she nodded a big smile on her face.
"Sakura, I'm going to show something to Sasuke, meet us at Hot Topic in a few." She said as she and Sasuke got up and left. I sighed and got money out to pay but Shika put a hand over mine's.
"I'll pay, believe it or not, I have money." He said. I smiled at him and put my wallet away. Soon after he paid we started to walk to Hot Topic in silence.
"Sakura………….um……..I was wondering……..do you like anybody?" Shika managed to say.
"I might, why?" I answered. He sighed, a little depressed.
"Nothing, just wanted to know." He said. I sighed. He wanted to ask something else, not that.
"Shika, tell me what's wrong." I said.
"It's nothing." He mumbled.
"Shika?" I asked. Oh boy, I hope he doesn't reject me for what I'm about to do.
"Hmm?" He mumbled.
"How do you feel about girls who make the first move?" I asked. He stopped dead on his tracks then turned to look at me. I smiled and kissed him passionately. Soon I felt his arms go around my waist. I put my arms around his neck and pulled him closer. It's a good thing that this part of the mall was all isolated. Soon we had to break away to breath. He had a big smile plastered on his face, not that I didn't.
"How do you feel about guys who make the second move?" He asked. I smiled and he pulled me towards him kissing me again. We broke away again for breathe and smiled.
"It worked." I heard Ami whisper to Sasuke.
"Course it did." Sasuke whispered back. I smiled and looked over Shika's shoulder. He looked behind him too to see Ami and Sasuke behind the wall watching.
"Hi!" Ami said as she walked over to us followed by Sasuke who had a smirk on his face, same for Ami. Shika let go of me and sighed.
"You people are so troublesome." He mumbled with a smile.
"I know." Ami said.
An Hour Later
Now we are walking back to the car after dragging Shika and Sasuke to a few more stores and making them give us their opinions on most of the clothes we bought. They would get nervous when they didn't like something so we figure we would toy around with them and make them give us their opinions on the ugliest clothes we could find. But that was an hour ago, so now Sasuke and Shika are relief to be going home. It's about 3 now so Kiba and Hinata might be home. We hoped unto the car and Ami drove off. Sasuke sat in front with her and I sat in the backseat with Shika.
"Ami, can I ask you a question?" I asked not really sure if I should bring up the subject of magic right now.
"Just did." She answered. I glared at her. I hate it when she answers like that. Shika and Sasuke chuckled at her response. I sighed and continued anyway.
"My element, do we have anyway to figure out what it is?" I asked.
"Just get pissed, that should be enough, I mean, it worked with Ino and for me, why not you and the others." She answered. I turned to look out the window.
"What gets you mad?" Sasuke asked.
"A lot of things." Ami mumbled.
"Hey." I said.
"Well it's true, whether you like it or not." Ami said. I sighed and started to mumble colorful words under my breath which made Shika chuckle at my reaction.
"Okay, then get mad." Sasuke said.
"No, not right here." Ami said.
"Why not?" I asked.
"We are in a car lady, you figure it out." Ami said. I sighed and nodded. Soon we arrived home and I quickly ran inside leaving behind a group of confused people. As soon as I entered I saw Shino and Kiba playing playstation. Hinata was watching them and Tenten, Neji, Naruto, and Ino were having a conversation of god knows what with Temari, Kankuro, and Gaara who are starting to hang out here now. They turned to look at my direction when I barged in.
"Something wrong?" Tenten asked. I laughed nervously.
"No, just wanted to see which element I got, excuse me." I said as I ran off.
Amaya's POV
I saw Sakura run directly into the house and probably somewhere else seeing as Tenten, Neji and Temari's car were here. I sighed as I closed the back door to the car grabbing all 10 bags there. Sasuke saw I was struggling and helped out as Shika walked into the house. Soon after we followed.
"Sakura, be careful." I yelled after her as I walked in. Sasuke followed behind closing the door behind him. I put all the bags down on the floor, more like dropped them, and walked over to the conservatory, followed by everyone.
"You guys go shopping?" Ino asked.
"Yup." I answered as I saw Sakura trying to get mad but not working.
"What is she doing?" Gaara asked.
"Trying to use her element." I answered.
"Sakura, just wait until you really do need it." Tenten said.
"It isn't going to work, you of all people should know that it's impossible to get her to do anything once she has made up her mind." I said. Tenten sighed and took a sit on the couch followed by Hinata, Ino and I. The rest took a seat somewhere. We watched for 10 minutes as she tried to get mad but nothing. I sighed and got prepared for impact as I got up.
"Come billboard, you to weak to use your power." Ino said after figuring out what I was going to do. She got up and walked in front of me.
"What did you say?" Sakura said obviously pissed off.
"You heard me forehead." Ino said. Sakura got pissed and raised her hand to point at us about to say something but instead a big earth quake happened and the ground began to level up. This caused Ino and I to jump back and fall flat on our asses.
"Oh my god." Sakura said as she covered her mouth.
"Ow." I said as I sat up a little. Ino groaned as she got up.
"You two okay?" Tenten asked as she stifled a laugh.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean too I swear." Sakura said as she ran over to us.
"Where have I heard that before?" I mumbled to myself as Sasuke helped me up.
"You could have been nicer." Ino said as Naruto helped her up.
"I'm sorry." Sakura said again.
"It's okay, besides, Ino tempted you, it's not your fault." I said as I looked at the broken windows and the cracked floor. Naruto and Sasuke sighed as they too looked at it.
"Well guys, you've got worked to do tomorrow." Tenten told them with a smirk.
"So, what element was that?" Kiba asked as we all walked over to the living room.
"Earth, nice, I like it." Naruto said.
"Earth, mother nature" Hinata said.
"She isn't mother nature considering she can't control the weather." Sasuke explained.
"So, how many elements are left?" Ino asked.
"10." Naruto said.
"Why 10?" Neji asked obviously barely notified of this himself.
"Each of you will have two elements, which element you will each get is a mystery." Sasuke said.
"So technically we have to be careful not to get pissed because we've got no idea if our element is harmful." Tenten said. Sasuke and Naruto nodded. "Great, just great." Tenten mumbled as we each thought about the possible elements. I wonder what element I will get.
