'Ahh... Lunch time... My favorite time of the day...' Waking into the cafeteria, I saw everyone at the usual table. Chatter filled the room, everyone talking about this and that going on throughout the school. I went to grab a lunch, and sasuke was in line in front of me.

"Oh, hey squirt!" That's my pet name for him

"Blondie..." He retorted

"Hey, do you know if itachi is gonna go to naruto's party or not?" I tried to hide the excitement in my voice

"Umm... Probably... He usually goes to parties, if it means he doesn't have to cook. Why so curious?" He raised an eyebrow and chuckled

"Nunya! So, watcha havin'?"

"Spaghetti and a salad... you?"

"A club sandwhich..."

"Cool, well, talk to you later!" He said, handing the cashier the money and walking away.

"Bye!!" I called after him. I got my lunch, and handed the cashier the money also. I walked over to my table, only to notice my seat was taken. I got fumed. Everyone was laughing and having a good time with the "New kid".

"Hey buddy, you're in my seat!"

"Oh, sorry, I didn't know. Here, i'll scoot over!" He said in an unusually pleasent tone. "My name's sai, and you would be?"

"I'm deidara. And, i'm sure everyone introduced themselves to you?" Everyone nodded

"Yes, they did. I was hanging out with gaara earlier, and he told me I could sit with you guys at lunch, if that's okay with you of course." He commented.

"Oh, yeah, that's fine. So, I hear you're new?"

"Yes, i am. I just transferred today."

"That's cool. Hey, there's a party this saturday, would you want to come? I could see if i could get you an invitation!" His face instantly lit up, but he still didn't smile.

"Oh, that would be great!" He said

"Well, i'll talk to naruto then!" Just then, gaara scoffed, earning a glare from me.

"Naruto? You're actually going to that jerks party?" He said, half screaming. His face was so red, i could actually picture steam coming out of his ears

"He's not a jerk! He's actually pretty nice."

"So, he's pretty now too?" Everyone laughed, except me

"That's not fucking funny!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, and everyone turned to look at me. "You know what, I'm outta here, i don't need this crap..." I got up, and walked outside. I sat down behind a dumpster, and stared at the sky. At that moment, Itachi was walking towards me.

"What was that about?" He said in a tantalizing voice. I blushed instantly

"Uhmm... I-It was nothing. Gaara just pissed me off, that's all." I stammered.

"Well, it obviously wasn't nothing, if it got you all worked up like this." He said, sitting down next to me.

"What's with the sudden change of heart? Usually you're all cold and don't hang out with anyone, much less care about anyone. But, now, you're asking me what my problem is, and trying to help."

"That's just an appearance i put on so people will leave me alone. I'm constantly pestered by fan-girls, and it kills me..." He flipped his hair out of his eyes. I resisted reaching out to touch it.

"I can see where that would be a problem... Hey, are you going to naruto's party saturday?"

"Party? I hadn't heard word of it until now... Why, did you want me to go or something?" He asked, I blushed a deeper red

"Uhmm... N-No, i was just wondering is all..." I babbled

"Well, i guess i could go. As long as i dont have to cook. I hate, no, Despise cooking." He laughed, and I laughed to. God, i wanted to jump him right here, right now.

"Okay, that would be cool. I guess i better go back inside... I dont want to catch us out here. He would be pissed"

"So true... I'll be in in a few, i'm gonna sit out here for a while." I started to stand up.

"'Kay, fine, but, i'll get naruto to invite you." I said, walking towards the door. As i opened it, i swear i caught a wiff of cigarette smoke.
