SasuNaru- Doubt
Sequel to "A Night to remember!"
Chapter : 4 – Betrayal
Naruto's point of view
The rest of the week I kept studying and going down to Ichiraku-Ramen, I'd almost forgotten about Sasuke, but who'd forget about their love?
I looked at the round shaped clock, 7pm Thursday night. It was still too early for bed. Maybe I could watch some TV… no I tried calling Sasuke instead.
I typed the number and pressed "call". I let it ring 10 times before hanging up. What was Sasuke doing at a time like this? I wondered and sat down at the kitchen table. I drifted into an imaginary world for a while, when suddenly someone knocked rapidly on the door.
"I am coming, I'm coming," I shouted, was it Sasuke? The thought of it being Sasuke made my heart jump, and I was about to jump on the person outside, who wasn't Sasuke at all…But Aian! "Hello?" I said in a kind of a confused tone. "Hello, Naruto. How are we tonight?" He said polite and came in the door. He was wearing a blue and purple kimono, yes a girl's kimono, with purple flowers on it, and his black hair was loose and hanging beautifully on his shoulders, "Well I've just finished my home works," I said and closed the door behind him, still I thought it was pretty weird for a male to be dressed like that, I didn't want to comment it. "Oh and by the way, how did you know I lived here?" I asked and trailed my fingers through my blonde hair. He smiled and nodded, "I asked your friend Sakura-san," he said. I nodded and told him that he could sit down if he wanted to. I'd forgotten all about my other friends because of Sasuke and home works, maybe I'd need some time for them too… "Well, I thought about hanging with my friends this Saturday, maybe a movie night or something," I said, and Aian nodded with agreement. "That's a really good idea, you need to socialise with your friends, it's important you know," Aian said and smiled. "So, what bring you here?" I asked him. Aian turned towards me, "You haven't been over at Ichiraku-Ramen today, and I got worried that the home works had killed you," Aian laughed, "I finally finished my home works, it was a hard task, but now I'm starving," I said and felt my stomach growl. "That's perfect, I knew you would be hungry so I made some Ramen for you," Aian said and pulled a box out of his bag, wow, I didn't see the bag until now. It was a normal bag, a blue one matching to the kimono and the smell of ramen filled my apartment.
I sat down to eat before I was to drool myself to death, the smell of ramen when you're hungry is outstanding!
"So what's the occasion?" I asked as I ate, "Huh? What do you mean?" Aian looked confused at me, "The dress up? Are you some kind of cross dresser?" I pointed at the man's disturbingly girly kimono with the chopsticks. "Oh, it's for my other job," Aian winked at me, "Other job?" I said after I'd finished my food, "Well, it's some kind of service business," Aian said and got up from the couch, "Well I better get going now, my boss will slay me if I am late," he said, I opened the door and nodded good bye to him, and as we were standing there in the doorway he bent down and kissed my cheek. I got into shock, he had kissed my cheek. "Hey wait, what you did that for?" but he didn't listen because he was waltzing down the hall as nothing had happened. Damn that Aian.
I touched my cheeks, they were burning. I went inside to calm myself from not running after him and kick his ass.
And I didn't know that there was one single witness of the happening.
Sasuke's point of view
I was walking home, my hands were shaking, no my whole body was shaking. If I'd only picked up the phone earlier… Then that faggot, Aian wouldn't…
I felt a drop on my arm, tears? No… it was raining. The dark clouds up in the sky reminded me of my head, so gloomy and dark. Well this was my wish, to push Naruto away for a while. Even though it hurt like it did. Maybe I should play my part?
I walked down the street, soaked like a drowned cat.
"Hello Sasuke," A familiar male voice behind me said. "Oh it's you," I said as I turned and looked up at the white haired man, "Kakashi, what are you doing out in the rain this late?" I asked. He was holding a blue umbrella and wearing a gray coat. "Iruka needed me to get some groceries," he said and smiled. "Oh, I haven't seen you with Naruto for a long time, are things right between you guys?" Kakashi held the umbrella so perfect that none of us got wet by the rain. "It's alright… We've taken a break to focus on our studies," I said and looked past him to not get any eye contact. "Oh, yeah… that's probably wise," he said and smiled. "Well, I got to go now, it's soon closing time," Kakashi nodded as a good bye and hurried past me. His footsteps could be heard of a while, but they soon got drowned in the sound of the rain hitting the ground.
I got home after a long walk, I kicked my soaked shoes of in the hallway and I didn't bother to dry them. I was changing to some dry clothes when the knocked on the front door. I looked at the clock. 9.13pm, who could it be this late? A though of it being Naruto struck me as lightening. I hurried to the door, fast, so fast…
I was only wearing my underwear when I opened the door. "Good Evening Sasuke-kun," the pink haired girl smiled, "Sakura…" I raised an eyebrow, "What do you want?" I asked. "I just wanted to see if you were okay," she said, "Uhm, I'm fine…" I replied, what was going on? "Well, I was just worried, since it's over between you and Naruto," She said.
Over? Was it really over between me and Naruto? I didn't reach to react properly because I just threw out a "Yeah,", The thought of it made me cold, "Well, I was just going to bed Sakura, so if you excuse me, we got a really important test tomorrow and I don't want to fail," I said and was about to close the door, but… "Sasuke please, I can see something is wrong!" she said and stopped the door with her foot. "It's none of your business," I said as I pushed her out and closed the door.
I rested my back towards the door, my feet couldn't bare me anymore. I just had let myself slip down and onto the floor. Damn that Sakura, she was right, something was wrong, no, is wrong, and I can't do anything about it, it was my choice and I got to stick to it.
As I sat there, tears rolled down my cheeks…
