I had spent the day with my new friends trying to be my regular self. I laughed a few times at something's Naruto and Kiba said and I yelled at Kiba a lot for be an annoying pervert but I often found myself drifting away and thinking about that very same guilty feeling that had been gnawing at me all day. It was like having 'friends' meant that if you did something wrong they would pay the consequences too. That was ridiculous. These people weren't my friends either. Hinata was Naruto's friend. She was only talking to me because Naruto was talking to me. Kiba was a pervert and I am a girl. Enough explained. As for Naruto: He was different. He was exceptional to the rules. I had called him my friend once before I believe but I can't say exactly what he is. He was just special to me.
I turned on my I pod not wanting to think about these confusing things anymore. I had gotten dressed already and was waiting for Naruto and Sasuke to pick me up. They had supposedly gone out with Hinata and some other girl and after they dropped their girlfriends off would come to pick me up. I sighed. Staying in a house with Uchiha Sasuke would be hard enough. Now thanks to Naruto I had to find an excuse to stay there even after Naruto left for his date at nine. Then I would have to sneak out at ten o clock. Actually I don't even think I'm going to sneak out. Sasuke definitely wasn't my friend and I wouldn't feel guilty for going out and doing drugs. It was my turn to get a break. I deserved it.
Besides, even if I told Sasuke he wouldn't care. He didn't give a fuck what I did to settle my nerves. He was most of the cause for riling me up anyway. I turned my I pod up as high as it could go and felt my ear drums pop. I had this twisting knot in my stomach every time I even thought of Sasuke figuring out I was doing drugs. It was driving me crazy but it just wouldn't go away. It almost made me want to cry. It was like he would think I was weak if he saw me doing drugs: if he knew I couldn't handle reality and for some reason I didn't want him to see me as weak. I wanted him to think I was strong and that was becoming a very difficult thing to be.
Sakura heard the faintest sound past the barriers of her blaring I pod and pulled the ear plugs out. She stood up and walked over to her window. She saw Sasuke's Camaro parked by the curb and she narrowed her eyes in anger. She didn't know why but at this time she hated him more then ever. She wanted to kill him in that instant and in another instant that feeling was gone and she was hoping out of her window and onto a sturdy tree branch, jumping down to the next tree branch and then to the ground. She was at his car door in a couple of fast pace strides and he rolled down his window smirking.
"You always have to make such a big exit?" He asked and she rolled her eyes hopping into the back seat. The car vroomed and they sped off to the Uchiha's apartment. Sakura for some reason was just beginning to wonder why Itachi was picking her up there anyway. She was so stupid. Why hadn't she asked herself that before? Sakura felt a lump form in her throat and could only wonder why she was getting this ominous feeling. Something big was going to happen tonight. She was about to start something she didn't know she would make it out of. Sakura for the first time in her life really felt worried. She felt genuinely terrified and she could only wonder why.
Her panic was pushed away as she noticed the Uchiha's eyes in the rearview mirror looking straight at her. She cocked an eyebrow in a badass kind of way and Sasuke snorted as he began to focus on the road again. Soon they were driving into a parking lot and pulling into a reserved parking space. Sakura looked confused on why Sasuke would have a reserved parking space but decided to ignore such a tedious thing.
Sasuke turned off his car and opened his door, stepping out gracefully. Naruto almost tripped out of the car and Sakura was the last one to step out of the car shutting her door and watching as the Uchiha pointed his keys at the car over his shoulder without even looking back. The car blinked and honked and Sakura rolled her eyes at how he just had to look cool. She pushed her hands into her jacket pockets and followed him in between two buildings where a flight of stairs could be found. The three of them walked up the stairs in complete silence and stopped at the third story where Sasuke walked out on to a platform where two doors were located. He walked towards the one on the right and knocked. Sakura looked confused and was about to ask why he was knocking. She wasn't aware he had a roommate.
Sakura was stunned when a gorgeous man opened the door. He was dripping wet and his only attire was a wet towel tied, low, around his waist. He was very muscular and built and the way he held the door frame with his hands to hold himself up told Sakura that he thought he was the coolest thing in the world. He had shoulder length blue hair and stunning blue eyes that made it hard for Sakura to look away. She rolled her eyes as the man smirked at her.
"Like what you see?" He asked giving her a wink. Sakura furrowed her eyes in frustration. He reminded her of a mix between Sasuke and Naruto: obnoxious and arrogant. She couldn't take that all in one person. Sakura flipped him off and he smirked again about to reply but Sasuke cut him off.
"Siugetsu, enough." Sasuke said in a commanding attitude and Sakura looked shocked that he was getting his ass beaten right now. Siugetsu looked at least four years older then they were and he could probably tale Sasuke if he wanted. Sakura almost gaped when Siugetsu nodded and went back inside. Sakura looked into the apartment and gaped when she saw a girl with read hair coming out in nothing but a towel, also dripping wet. Siugetsu walked out of the apartment first making sure to pass in between Sasuke and Sakura on his way out. The girl followed after smiling at Sasuke the entire time and looking him up and down like he was a piece of meat. The two of them walked over to the other door on the third story and went into through that door, arguing about something or another.
This girl had no dignity and Sakura decided quickly that she didn't like her. She walked out of the apartment dripping wet in a towel with this guy named Siugetsu and she was trying to flirt with Sasuke. How pathetic.
Sasuke walked into the apartment and Naruto ushered Sakura in. "Come on Sakura chan!" He shouted and Sakura gave a half smile and walked in with Naruto followed her in. She followed Sasuke down a hallway. The bathroom door was open and steam was slowly exiting the room. They walked only a few feet further and the narrow hallway opened into a large kitchen. On the opposite side of the kitchen a bar stretched out from one of the side walls and reached out to the middle of the room. One the other side of the bar was the living room and Sakura could see a sliding glass door all the way on the other side of the living room. She would guess it led out to a balcony with a beautiful view. Sakura could only wonder, however, why Sasuke lived in such a beautiful apartment.
She knew that he was an orphan so how could he afford to live in such a fancy place? She narrowed her eyes in curiosity but followed Sasuke through the kitchen where he turned the lights on. Then he walked into the living room and turned on a fan and some more lights. He plopped on a couch and threw his feet up on a coffee table. Sakura raised an eyebrow. This was his house but he could be a little less rude. She guessed she could sit so she moved to sit by herself in a chair and they began.
Naruto had been complaining about being hungry for the past thirty minutes while Sasuke had left the room saying he had to take a call. He hadn't come back since then and Sakura could here him laughing and flirting and whispering things incoherent to her. She was getting really pissed because for the first time she was the only one doing any work. She had already written the rough draft of the report and only needed to make a model of an atom.
"Sakura chan I'm starving. Do you think the teme has instant ramen?" Naruto asked and Sakura slammed her pencil on the table furiously. The nerve of that man. He was blowing them off in his own house. Sakura wondered why the hell she didn't want to look weak in front of him: why the fuck did she give a shit what he thought. He was a rude conceited prick. He didn't care about her and all caring about what he thought of her was doing was making her angry. She felt so tired right now and she knew that she needed to do something. She needed to escape and get a hold of herself but she couldn't.
Sakura stormed into his kitchen and threw the cabinet door open letting it make a loud noise as it hit the wall. She smirked when she saw it made a mark. She threw open the next two cabinets and then slammed all three doors shut as hard as she could. She listened for Sasuke's voice and couldn't here it. Perfect. She smirked even wider as she took a few steps towards the fridge and threw that open as well.
By now she was aware of Naruto's shocked face watching her: stunned as he stood silently trying to figure out what to do. It wasn't his attention she wanted though. Sakura roughly slammed the fridge door shut and smirked when it's loud 'boom' echoed through the house. She opened the pantry door and started to rip things from their shelves throwing them on the ground. Sakura just couldn't take it anymore. For some reason this was giving her a rush and she was forgetting all of her worries and angers and she was escaping. She tore the bags and boxes from their neatly ordered places in the pantry and threw them on the floor. She couldn't stop and she didn't see a reason too. Her eyes lit up when her goal was finally met.
Sasuke's room door was thrown open and he stormed out. "What the fuck?!" He yelled keeping the phone to his ear. Sakura continued her rampage too caught up in expressing herself to realize she was losing control. She needed the drugs right now but there was still thirty minutes left. She had to do something to get rid of all of her emotions. The running and hot water just weren't working anymore. She was going insane. These new friends and Sasuke they were all driving her mad. She needed her escape now.
Sakura was too tangled up in her emotions and thoughts to even realize Sasuke throwing his phone onto the sofa and running over to her. She frowned as she felt his arms wrap themselves over her upper arms and across her chest. She started kicking her arms and legs and trying to wiggle free.
"Let the fuck go of me!" She hissed still thrashing around in his strong arms. He kneed her in the back of her knee and her leg buckled. He turned her around and pushed her back into the pantry shelves. He pinned her arms against the shelves as well and glared at her fiercely. Sakura was in to much of an emotional wreck to realize glaring back at him wasn't the best idea.
Sakura felt a pressure on the side of her neck and the last thing she remembered was Sasuke's eyes: they were glaring at her but if she wasn't mistaken she could see worry hidden deep in the black holes. Then everything went black and Sakura had her escape. She was gone but only for the moment.
