AUTHOR'S NOTE: So I finally managed to update the story , YAAAAAY, I haven't written in so long that there are bound to be mistakes..plus now I write in present tense , and this old story was in part tense.. which was a very difficult thing for me to write.. So I hope you like it and write plenty of reviews !
SAKURA'S POV:
"What?" I practically yelled. "Would you keep it down, I don't want the entire building to know about it.." said Sasuke, as he quickly looked around to see if anyone had heard our conversation..Then in a lower voice he continued, "C'mon I need your help, I can't ask the Dobe ... Ino and the other girls are out of the option.."
I gave him a smug grin, " The great Sasuke Uchiha asking , lil' ol' me for help.. I never thought I'd see the day.. You aren't sick or anything? are you?" I said as I raised an eyebrow playfully. He exhaled exasperatedly and started to walk away. "Wait!" I called out , as I tried to catch up with him.
"No , forget it.. I'll just ask..." he said in a voice, that made it clear that he was pissed off. "Who're you gonna ask?" I asked curiously. At this, He looked at me for a moment and then turned away."Karin" he said flatly. My eyes widened at the mention of her name, and I could feel my jaw drop in surprise."Karin? KARIN? Are we talking about the same Karin that has tried to rape you? or is there another Karin , that I'm not aware of?" I exclaimed in a voice that gave away too much of what I was feeling inside.
If he was hoping to get a reaction out of me , he clearly got one. During my short little tantrum , I swear I saw him smirking.
"I was kidding, but if just mentioning her makes you so bothered ,I wonder what will you do , If I actually do ask her.." he said with a small laugh, and I couldn't help but notice how much younger he looked without the emotionless mask that he carried along with him at all times.
"Uchiha San , I want to go with you..." I said , I could hear the childishness in my voice, but at that moment I couldn't have cared less..He must have noticed my pout, because his smile grew wider.. And at that very moment, I noticed myself thinking that the crinkles by his eyes might just be the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.
"Only If you stop calling me , Uchiha-San ..It makes me sound like an old man." he said, making a very un-sasuke like face.
"I want to keep calling you that for a little while.. until I'm more familiar with you " I said, in an almost urgent tone...
He looked at me, I could see the disappointment in his eyes.. "Sure Sakura, well, I'll meet you after 6 ,In front of the bakery."His voice was emotionless.. and judging by his expression.. I could feel that he had put on his mask again.
He gave me a short nod and walked away..
Out of nowhere,I found myself thinking, sorry Sasuke-kun , but this time you have to earn every ounce of my affection.. I didn't know where that thought came from , but I just nodded in agreement and started to walk towards my class.
INO'S POV:
I glanced to my right , and I could see that dumb forehead practically beaming with happiness.. God knows why she's so happy, but I think I do have a very good Idea..I tore a piece of paper and wrote down "Why are you so happy?"
I waited for the teacher to turn away and threw it towards Sakura.. She picked it up and looked over to me, I gave her a small smile , to let her know that I was the one who sent it to a few moments, her reply came , "Going out with Sasuke today." I rolled my eyes , and tore up the piece of paper a little too aggressively.
Thankfully the class ended quickly, and I found myself dashing towards Sakura, who was probably telling Naruto all about her date.shit.
"It's so great Sakura Chan, that you two are getting along now." Naruto said , as he ruffled up her hair. "Yeah , atleast we can be sure that he doesn't hate me.." Sakura replied with a small giggle.I tried to not let my emotions get the best of me, and approached them as calmly as I could.
"So it's a date?" I said, as I join them. "No,no...no, no ..God no... I'm just helping him to pick out a gift for his mother." She replied, but I could clearly see the blush on her face.. She was a goner.
"He could have asked me or Naruto for that.." I said in a bitter tone.. "Well you nearly cut off his arm last time... and He did ask me, and I suggested him a few great ramen flavors, but he told me I was an idiot and hung up ."Naruto replied , as he shook his head.
"BAKA." I yelled involuntarily, and landed a punch on top of his head. He winced , as Sakura looked at me as if I was a psychopath ..
"uhh..well I have to go now, See you later, guys."Sakura said as she nervously picked up her bag.. "Bye " I said as she walked out of the room.
"Ino , what the fuck was that?"Naruto exclaimed , "Isn't this going exactly as planned?" I looked at him , and I could see it in his eyes, the same look i once had in my own, the only difference was that,he still believed in both of them where as I was nothing more than a traitor..For a moment ,I wanted to tell him that I had betrayed them all, For a second I wanted to break down crying and beg him to forgive me.. But in the end, I did neither... "Yeah , all according to plan." I whispered.
I quickly picked up my phone,right after Naruto left. "Yeah, Hello..We got work to do."
SAKURA POV :
I could feel my heart beat louder with every step, Even though , this wasn't a date ..I couldn't help but feel excited about being able spend some time alone with him.. I looked down on my clothes and wondered if I was a bit over dressed, but dismissed the thought as quickly as it had I started thinking about how I'm going to greet him,"Hello Uchiha San" "Hi Uchiha san" "Have you been waiting long?" "I hope I'm not too late." A giggle escaped my lips when I realized , how weird I was behaving... You're annoying...I said to myself, whilst making a grumpy face.
After five minutes I finally reached the place we were supposed to meet.I looked around but found no trace of Sasuke,I shrugged thinking, Maybe he's late? After a few hours, I picked up , whatever was left of my dignity and started walking back, hoping I wont run into Sasuke for a few days..
I expected tears to flow, but they never did ... Which was probably a good thing.. but, It also made me realize how dead i was on the inside...
...SASUKE'S POV...
"Let me Out , You psycho." I screamed, as I rapped on the door for the nth time, but no matter how much , I yelled ...or knocked on the door .. nobody heard me. I wasn't claustrophobic ,but being locked in the janitors closet for five straight hours ,was starting to get to me..
Suddenly , the door opened , and I almost mistook it as a good thing.. Almost..
