Chapter 7:
Now this is different.
Sakura had left her bag at school. She had her change of "exceptable" clothing in the bag. so she decided if she was to facce her parentals she was going to be herself.
She slowly and unwantingly, approached the door, took a deep breath, and shoved herself in.
She found the house empty. Big surprise. They were barely there when she was there, muchless when she's not. She got hungry to make a sandwitch and found a note on the frige.
Sakura, gone out to an old friends party. Be back...whenever. Don't forget the maids are off today.
Dad
"SHUT UP! THE ONE TIME I WANT TO SEE YOU AND YOU'RE GONE! AAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!" She screamed at no one. Sakura was engulfed by fury. She hated her parentals. (note: she does NOT call them her parents.) She was going to give them a taste of their own medicine.
She pulled a note pad and a pen out of nowhere. She wrote:
I hate you! You were never there for me! I've waited long enough! I'm leaving this HELL HOLE! Don't go looking for me! I HATE YOU!!
Sakura
P.S. YOU SUCK AS PARENTALS
She ran up to her room, stuffed two duffle bags full of clothes. Ran back down stairs and waited.
Sasuke had said he would pick her up after school. She just hoped he wasn't playing her. He did seem like he meant it, but did he, really?
The clock struck 5:00. They usually got out at 4:30. Maybe he got lost. She reassured herself.
Sakura jump when the cell phone rang that oh so familiar tone. She flipped it open.
"Hello?" She said hoping it was Sasuke.
"Hey, where do you live? I can't find the address anywhere." Thank God.
"About 3 miles east of your house. But, how'd you get my cell number?"
"I have my ways." He paused. "I'll be there soon." His voice was so friendly. Then she noticed she still had the phone to her ear.
Sakura had forgotten one thing. A picture. She ran to get it, when she came down. She found Sasuke reading hers and her parentals notes. He looked up at her and smiled sweetly. She shoved the picture in her jacket.
"Nice way to put it. Short and easy to remember. On other things do you have every thing you want?" He smiled sweetly at her. He never smiled at her.
"Yes." She just watched him looking around her house/manion type thing. She couldn't stand the silence any longer. "Don't expect me to give you a tour." He started laughing at that. "Why are you so happy?" Sakura started chuckling herself.
"No reason." He just looked at her when he said that. "Come on lets get going." He directed her to the door. She walked along next to him feeling insecure, but also at home at his side. And that what she was hoping to find, a new home where she was her, not them.
"Are you sure you okay with this?" Sakura asked him still feeling uneasy. They were outside the Mercedes Sasuke had. He was staring at her thinking of what to say.
"I invited you. So don't worry about anything. If you don't like it I'll help you get an apartment." They hoped in, Sakura now feeling alittle better, NOT! Hearing that he would get her an apartment made the feeling worse.
"Why would you do that? I mean I haven't been the nicest person in the world to you. So why?" Sakura was looking strait at him. He mummbled something and then his cheaks turned bright red. "What did you say?" Sakura said curiously. He didn't answer. "Okay, okay. don't tell me."
They came to a red light.
"I was going to tell you I just had to wait for you to be still." He looked at her with that same looked in his eyes. The one she couldn't figure out.
"Wha-" He leaned into her. His lips trying to blend with hers. She never saw it coming. She closed her eyes and let him kiss her. And she kissed back. She now knew what was in his eyes.
"That's why." He pulled away from her. Both of them blushing deeply. Sakura sighed heavely and looked up at him. They stared into each others eyes, niether wanting to break the silence. They kissed again when they heard the door of the car behind them slam shut,ignoring it. Then the knock of the window drew them apart. Sasuke turned to see Ino trying to see into the black tinted window. He grabbed Sakura's hand and rolled down the window. He looked up at Ino obviously annoyed.
"Hey, move your fricking ca--" She stopped when she saw Sasuke and what he had his hand wrapped around. Ino's eyes followed the other foriegn arm up to its owner. The darkness in the car shaded the face in the passenger seat. "Who is that?!" Ino sounded offended.
Sakura leaned into the light where her face was exposed.
"Can I help you?" Sakura said rubbing in Ino's face in what was now hers. Ino just stared at her, then at Sasuke. Ino's mouth hung open. Sakura looked so inosint.
"Um..I see you around." Sasuke waved his free hand and speed away. He rolled up the window and stared out at the road. "That was interesting." He said eyes on the road.(what a good driver)
"I don't think she liked what she saw."
"Did you?" He stopped infront of a mansion. He waited.
"I think so, but how would I know? I've never been kissed." She looked at him embarassed.
"You're not alone." Sasuke said still looking out the windshield.
"Seriously, I figured you would have gone out with a lot of girls and had lots of 'first kiss'."
"Nope. I turned them all down, there was no reason from hurting the feeling of other girls."
"So are we going to sit here all night or what?" Sakura didn't want this to get any more awkward. Sasuke got out and came around and opened her door.
