Boys are like Trees they Take 50 Years to Grow Up
Chapter two

A steamy hot shower room, pink wet hair, those curvy sexy lines, her wet body, hands covered in her chest, her round butt. Emerald eyes studying onyx's in the other end of the room. His round shocked eyes; staring, admiring and worshiping her body. Holy fuck her body is so perfect. He just wanna grab her, make her squeal his name.

"Ah! Sasuke-kuun" she squeaked making his knees weak. His mouth nibbling in her ear lobe, his hands are going down and making its exploration. "Sasuke-kun is gay."

Sasuke darted up from his bed, it's already night time. He catches his breath; his forehead is sweaty and looked down. Shit, something is hard. He pants more and starts to wipe the sticky sweat. He looked next to him, he saw his friend, Saku, groaning and slowly opening his eyes.

"Whaddup?" he asked yawning.

"I had a dream and I was gay," he looked down to Saku who's wearing an over large shirt. "You don't have boobs right?"

"What!?" Saku made a little jump. Then Sasuke poked his breast. "What the fuck do you think you're doing you retarded monkey!" Saku yelled slapping Sasuke's hand.

"Damn it, you are a girl," he muttered, eyes are perfect circle and mouth in a letter o. Saku shifts her position, hugging Sasuke's pillow in her chest. "For how many years I thought you were a dude." Sasuke mentally slapped himself and violently scratches his head.

Sasuke remembered what happened yesterday morning where he got knocked out by a flying basin from the bathroom.

"Sasuke gave me the nick name Saku when we were young," Saku said and sips more of her tea.

"I did?" Sasuke asked turning his head to Saku while Ayuk cleans his wound..

"Hold still, idiot," Ayuki turned his head back to her and pushed a cotton ball in his bleeding nose.

"Yeah, you asked my name and I was gonna say Sakura but you cut me off," Saku or Sakura said.

Sasuke remembered. Sakura was crying and kept on sobbing like a bitch and all she could say was Saku. Well what a shit.

"But the way you act, your clothing and they way you talk! And you almost knocked me out when we had a first fight! You are not a girl!" Sasuke said standing up and pointing his fingers at her.

"Fuck you! Didn't you notice I am surrounded by men in my own house? My mom died when I was born and there is no other woman's love that supported me how do you think I'll grow up?" Sakura said raising her middle finger at him. "Plus, you were saved by Kiki-chan when we were fighting back then, I was able to control myself from knocking you out," she snorted. Sasuke blushed and took sat back.

"Hihi, Saku-chi is so cute when you're little kids," Ayuki giggled and putting the medical kit away. "I even remembered the day you went to Hokkaido, you were wearing the yellow dress that Ita-chan bought," she said looking to Itachi. "Remember? The one your ex-girlfriend wanted for her sister and you bought it for her and she dumped you?" she was still smiling. Itachi growled, eyes closed and pretending he hears nothing.

"Wait. You two know she's a girl?" Sasuke asked. Itachi and Ayuki looked at him and Sakura glared at him. "I was the only one who didn't know? And why didn't I see you off to Hokkaido?"

"You had a fever you said but Kiki-chan said you were crying all night and didn't want to see me off."

"I had a fever! Don't believe anything that Ki-chan said!"

"No, it was Ita-chan who said you were crying all night," Ayuki said.

"ITACHI!"

"Fuck," Itachi mumbled.

Sasuke scratches his head more. His best friend is a she; he had fun playing with her. But how could he miss it?

"You know, you're pretty dumb," Sakura said hugging the pillow on her chest.

"You know, I poked your nipple, you really should wear a bra," Sasuke shot back. Sakura's eyes widen.

"You fucking perverted stupid monkey!" she exclaimed slamming his head on the wall.

--

Last night was enough torture to Sasuke, who got beat up to sleep by a girl. Itachi, who's really pissed off by being woken up by the two, decided to put Sakura in the guess room and they both agreed. But today, Ayuki decided to go to the beach with the whole family and Sakura.

"Since its summer I guess we all should need a break," Ayuki announced. "Let's not waste the whole summer okay?"

"Ita-chan! Sasu-chan! Here here!" Ayuki exclaimed waving her hand as she picks a spot for them. The beach wasn't too crowded, the sun is so bright and everything and everywhere is too hot. Itachi and Sasuke put their stuff on the sand; they pushed the two large umbrellas open and the cold drinks near them. "Saku-chi and I will be changing in our bikinis so don't go away okay?" Ayuki instructed to the bothered men.

"Yeah, yeah, just go and get ready already," Sasuke said shooing them off. Ayuki and Sakura's gone already, leaving Itachi who's wearing his black with read and orange flames shorts and Sasuke wearing his plain blue shorts. "Aah, so hot," Sasuke said lying below the umbrella's shade, his back on the pure sand.

"Yeah," Itachi agreed and sliding a cigarette out from his bag, "so," he started. "Which one do you like?" he pointed on the girls next to them, giggling and blushing. "I like the one with blonde hair," Itachi said smirking. Sasuke turn to the girls, saw four of them, the blonde is already seductively winking at Itachi and wetting her red lips. "I think I'm going to like this beach, see ya," he stands up and dusted his short and waved, leaving his younger brother.

"He really is my brother," Sasuke lies back again; he shielded his eyes from the sun. "God they're taking forever," he shook his head and grab his i-pod from his bag.

"Hey look at those babes," someone said that took Sasuke's attention. Babes, huh. Well, that is interesting.

"They're like so hot," the other one said again. Sasuke poked his head and saw the 'babes'.

Ayuki's wearing her white with red stripes two piece bikinis, her sandals have bows, her hair is up and she's wearing her heart shaped glasses. Next to her is a shy pinked haired girl, her green bikini top with cargo print and her very short denim shorts and she's barefoot and her shades are on top of her black baseball cap.

Sasuke gulped. Not to her sister, obviously. Boys are like staring at them both. Ayuki is already flirting with a tanned foreign guy leaving poor Sakura alone, Sakura is obviously disgust by guys who's staring and following her.

"Hey hey, do you wanna hang out with us?" a guy asked.

"Ew, why would I want to do that?" she shots back.

"We have watermelons."

"Go away freak!" she exclaimed running towards to Sasuke. "Jesus, we should call guys like them horny-bores," she joked poking Sasuke's ribs with her elbows and laughing at her own joke. Sasuke didn't laugh, oh no he didn't he was busy. He was busy staring at her. Sakura is closer to him now, her cleavage exposed and nipples were… obvious. Her legs are long and slender. "What are you staring at?" she asked making Sasuke snap and blush a little.

"Okay, Sasuke. Just pick one cheesy pick up line like you used to and she'll freak out and like it like the other girls," Sasuke thought and inhaled and exhaled. "It looks like your boobs are going to pop out anytime soon," he muttered. Sakura extremely turned red and punched his stomach.

Is it really weird when you spent your childhood memories with a girl that you thought it's a guy? Sasuke is the master if it comes to girls, but he still couldn't believe that Sakura, a girl who likes guy stuff, wear guy clothes, talks like a guy and even act like one. Sasuke moaned, rubbing his face with his palms, he looked next to him. The both of them, sitting under the shade of their umbrella, she's wearing Sasuke's shirt which is too large for her.

"You don't have b.o. do you?" Sasuke asked. Sakura only raised her middle finger on him. He sighed. "You're really don't look so hot, I mean, you're legs have small scratches and stitches from the wounds when we were kids," he added. "Plus, you're like too loud, when we sleep I couldn't get any because of your loud snoring." Sakura turned red, ready, steady… "You really don't have a fashion sense at all; you wear guy stuffs that made your large boobs un-noticed." Sasuke opened a cold cola from the cooler and sipped some, giving him a second to stop from blab about her un-perfection. "And you said you broke up with your boyfriend, it's hard to believe someone actually liked you."

POW!

"Would you shut it?" she asked. Sasuke rubs his cheek where Sakura just slapped him.

"Daaamn, you hit like a dude," he added and he heard a sob.

"I know I'm not hot like some girls, I don't giggle or wear any make up! I don't act so innocent or other shits. I like drinking beers, I like shopping in cheap stores, I don't like wearing sandals or stilettos! I don't like mini skirts, I hate it when my hair is long so I always cut it this short! I like to swear and say other bad words, I like to watch sports and wrestling, I like action movies and I gross out when a girl and a guy kisses in the movies!" she said it all, she sniffs and wipes her tears and punched Sasuke again, but this time, weakly. "I like rock bands that create noise and sometimes I read comic books. I hate preppy cheer leaders, and I don't find jocks and macho men sexy or hot. I laugh, talk and everything else so loud!" she added. "But whatever you do, I still am a girl, but I ain't perfect, I'm not any man's dream girl!" she added.

"Saku," Sasuke murmured while his chest is being hit by Sakura. She slowly stopped but still sobs. Everything else she confessed is opposite of the girls Sasuke dated. He always met girls who giggle and don't laugh too loud, when he goes out with them they always wears make up. They act so innocent. They hate the taste of beer. They waste their money to expensive stores and sacrifices their poor feet to wear four inch stilettos. They wear anything to show off their skin, they always goes to beauty salons to make their long hair pretty. You wouldn't hear them say bad words or swear on a normal conversation, they don't appreciate sports not even wrestling. They love romantic smooches in the movies and hated action bloody morbid ones. Sakura rested her head on his chest still crying.

"Sai-san is not like other guys who like pretty faces, innocent and cute girls, he likes me for who I am," she buried her face on his chest making the sobs not so clear and makes his skin feel her hot face and hot tears. "But even thou he does he will never love me."

Sasuke rested his hands on top of her head; he felt guilty for opening such topic and describes Sakura like she's an ugly pig. "Idiot," he started. "As if you already met and know all men in the world," Sakura looked up to him. Sasuke smirked.

--

"So hot," Sasuke murmured. He's down town with his friend, Naruto and Shikamaru, checking out girls. That's their favorite past time, especially now. Its summer, it's hot and girls are like showing off skin. Naruto grinned wildly when a girl passed by them wearing short shorts that almost shows her but cheeks.

"Hey, Shikamaru, look at that chick," Naruto giggled pointing at a girl who's picking up her stuff from the floor, not only that, she's wearing a tight mini skirt. They can see her pretty panties from their view. Naruto snickers more.

"You are so horny, you evil virgin," Shikamaru groaned. "C'mon, let's go check out Temari's café," he added.

"Pft, look who's calling me evil virgin, you dude who only dated one girl," Naruto grunted following Shikamaru. "And you were like in 5th grade."

"You had a girlfriend? I thought you're only into fling and flirting?" Sasuke asked. Shikamaru opens the café's door, making the bells jiggle. They heard the waitress says welcome and bows at them. Naruto on the other hand, stares at them; they wore a short pink maid's uniform with short lacey white apron. They took a sit, far from the counter and the crowd.

"Yeah," Shikamaru answered. "But she has to moved to Tokyo, her father is like so rich and smart," he added rubbing his temples.

"So, what's up with you courting Temari?" Sasuke asked and then a waitress asked for their orders.

"Uhm, how may I help you?" a girl with long purple hair, her white shy eyes looking at the table and not having an eye contact on them. Her pad paper pen and tray is hugged tightly on her chest. Naruto cooed checking out her white pale skin of her legs. She blushed and nudged a little.

"Whoa, down boy," a girl with spiky two pigtails. She wears a totally fit purple mini skirt and a tube that only covers her breast, her legs are covered with fish net stockings and half of her legs is covered with her black leather boots. "Geeze, Naruto is awfully an evil horny virgin."

"I am so not!" Naruto exclaimed.

"I told you," Shikamaru muttered lazily.

"Heh, well I guess you met my cutie friend here. Her name is Hyuga, Hinata. She'll be helping me out in my mom's café for the whole summer," she introduced to the purple haired young lady. Hinata bowed shyly and blushed. "Hinata meet, Pineapple head, Asshole and Virgin Marry," she pointed out to Shikamaru to Naruto.

"God, why do you even like this woman?" Sasuke asked. Shikamaru only shrugged and lazily looked at her, laughing and teasing Naruto.

"Temariiiii, stop calling me dirty virgin will ya? It's ruining my rep!" Naruto whined.

"She reminds me a lot like someone I could never forget," Shikamaru answered.

"Someone?" Sasuke asked shifting his gaze at Shikamaru.

"Yeah."

"So, what can I get you guys today?" Temari asked.

"Coffee," Sasuke said swaying his hand lazily, he buried his mouth with his right hand, his arm rested on the table. He concentrate his sight to the large glass window, there are lots of people outside, since its summer and all. Then, he remembered what Shikamaru said, someone, is it the girl when they're in fifth grade? He looked at Shikamaru who's looking at the menu and telling his order to Hinata. He turned his gaze to Temari who kept on teasing Naruto. It's almost a year since Shikamaru courted Temari, before courting her he was dumped when he asked her out. He said he was struck by love at first sight.

"RAMEN!" Naruto exclaimed her order. Hinata bowed again and left their table, Naruto followed her with his eyes until she disappeared. "Hinata-chan is really shy isn't she?" Naruto said smiling like a dope. "I like Hinata-chan!" he added.

"Shit, you're so loud. My head is like hurting like crazy, the heat from outside is like hell and now you blab about crap," Sasuke grunted.

"Geeze, why are ya so grouchy today, Asshole?" Temari asked sitting next to Shikamaru. Sasuke ignored her and continue to stare outside the window. She looked at her lover, Shikamaru only shrugged. The café's location was perfect; outside was the couple's and friends meeting place by the large fountain where happy family comes with their small children to toss a coin. And then, he saw someone. Ayuki and Sakura happily dancing in the fountain and didn't care if they're wet or the center of attraction.

Sasuke ran out from the café, pushing people away from his way. He's almost there, then, he heard them singing and twirling. And then, he saw her, wearing a girly short yellow summer dress, she carries her flat pink shoes and she's wearing make up. Sakura laughed while Ayuki giggles with her. Sakura saw Sasuke and waved.

"Sasupe!" she exclaimed. People who are staring at them turned their heads at him, groaning he walked nearer to them. She kept on waving and Ayuki kept on dancing, then she slipped, she bumped into Sakura's back that made her balance back, unfortunately Sakura lost her balance. "Wai!" she exclaimed. Sasuke got alerted so he ran as fast as he could and catch Sakura.

"God, are you two drunk?" he asked while Sakura rested half of her body on Sasuke. She laughed loud and patted Sasuke's back hard and yelling 'again again' over and over again while Ayuki giggled. "It's like four in the afternoon, who gets drunk in this kind time?" he asked none of the two answered him normal. He sighed and carried Sakura in his back. "Ki-chan, c'mon here and hold my hand," he ordered and taking his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed Itachi's number.

"Sasu-chan, who are you calling?" Ayuki asked holding his hand.

"Itachi, I'll ask him to pick us up," he groaned.

--

Sakura and Ayuki sits quietly while towels hung in their shoulder, their feet is soaked in basin full of hot water. Sasuke handed them some hot tea while they kept on hearing Itachi's growl and sighs.

"Ita-chan, we're really sorry," Ayuki suddenly broke the silence. "Saku-chi and I are only celebrating her womanhood when she got accepted to Happy Berry dress shop down town," she added. Sasuke jerked a brow up. Happy Berry is a shop for fashion obsessed people, the dresses, shirts, skirts, shoes are so cute and unique, all girls he met liked everything that the shop sell. Maybe, that's the reason why Sakura's wearing a cute outfit that time. "You see, Hikaru-ko, my ex-boyfriend's ex-girlfriend which is also my friend, the owner of the store gave Saku-chi a little make over and dresses her cutely and she got interested, good thing Saku-chi still doesn't have a job so Hikaru-ko said she'll hire her as a saleslady but she need to keep being cute and all. So I convinced Saku-chi to accept the job since she was cute from the miracle Hikaru-ko made and—"

"Ayuki!" Itachi exclaimed making her shut up. He looked at his brother who's watching the two girls. "What do you think?" Sasuke turned and looked at his older brother. He's passing the decision to him? Wow. Sasuke turned his look to Sakura and Ayuki who looked at him like two abandoned kittens who's asking him to love them or give them milk. He sighed.

"Whatever, just don't do it again," he mentioned.

"Yay! Sasuke is the best!" Sakura exclaimed hugging him tight.

"Yaay!" Ayuki gave her hurrah.

--

Sasuke is in his bed, lying quietly. His hands behind his head, one of his feet is on the floor. He remembered what happened earlier. His friends. Shikamaru is never committed with a girl before, flings, flirting or dating once or twice is enough. He never got serious not until he met Temari and he discovered his childhood sweetheart that he seems loved so much. Then there goes Naruto who kept his 'virginity' for the right girl, yeah, he likes looking at sexy and cute girls that shows some skin, but he told them once he met the right girl he'll respect her like a queen. How about him? He sighed.

"Knock knock," someone said behind his door. Sasuke looked at his digital clock and saw it's already almost midnight. He stood up and opened his door.

"Ki-chan why aren't you sleeping yet?" he said.

"Sorry," she answered, it's not Ayuki, its Sakura.

"Oh, Saku, what's up?" Sakura showed him two cans of beer and smiled. Sasuke opened the door wider. "Close the door, kay?"

Sakura closed the door and sat on his floor. "Sasuke, I really wanna say thanks for slipping us out from Itachi-san," she said.

Sasuke shrugged a little and open his can of beer. "It was nothing." Sakura opened her can of beer as well, she sipped a little, Sasuke watches her. Her eyes twitches a little when she sips beer, maybe the taste wasn't that good for her. "Oh, I want to show you something," she muttered and took something from her shorts pocket. It's a picture, she handed it to Sasuke.

Sasuke flipped it to see who and saw a guy that looked like him, he's eyes were shocked and he kept on staring at the guy. He was wearing a white sweaty shirt and shorts, his tying his rubber shoes, eyes are on the other way from the camera laughing at something out from the frame.

"He's Sai-san," she said sitting next to him at his bed. Then, Sasuke remembered what Sakura said when they're back in the beach, she's crying because of Sai. "Sai-san is a year older than me, which makes you two at the same age," she added. "We've been dating for some months before we broke up." Sasuke turned his gaze to Sakura and he saw her smile while staring at the picture in his hand. "Sai-san looks exactly like Sasupe, ne?"

Sasuke turned back to the picture quickly. "Did you really break up with him because you're going back here?" he asked. Sakura didn't answer. Instead she puts her half empty can in the bedside lamp table. She lies in his bed with her arms spread all over the sheet. Sasuke turned to look at her. Eyes calmly closed lips slightly apart.

"Sai-san… he," she hugged Sasuke's long pillow. "He raped me," she continued. "I refused but he didn't accept my answer," she added. "After that I thought he loved me that made me think that's why he did it. But a friend of mine overheard his friends and Sai talking about a deal. The deal was Sai will take my virginity away."

Sasuke's shocked. She studied Sakura's face, she looks awfully dead serious. He couldn't believe it, Sakura, his long lost best friend, was raped and got played by some guy. "For real?" he asked. Sakura opened her eyes and automatically locked in Sasuke's. She sat up. She smiled.

"Gotcha," she answered sticking her tongue out. Sasuke froze while he watches Sakura bounces off the room, laughing about what a big dork how he looked liked asking such a serious question. "Finish those beer, kay? Niiight" she cooed and slam the door behind her.

Sasuke was stuck there and figured out what just happened. "You tomboy!" he exclaimed and flopped back to his bed. He grabbed Sakura's beer and sipped some. He looked at the picture of Sai. So, he didn't really know what happened between Sai and Sakura at all.
