(Operation: 'Get Over Uchiha Sasuke' has completely failed and crumbled. I can't help it. Worst part is that I don't even know if he's feeling these feelings too. The 'What-The-Heck-Is-Wrong-With-Myself-?-I-Need-To-Get-Over-You-But-I-Don't-Want-To-Let-You-Go-Just-Yet-Because-If-You-Feel-The-Same-Then-I-Wouldn't-Mind-Doing-Everything-All-Over-Again-Because-I-Still-Love-You' feeling. I don't want to assume things, but he might maybe, just a little tiny in the least bit still have feelings for me, because, I mean, he isn't a complete asshole to me and doesn't ignore me like everyone else except a few. So there's a chance.. right?)

"I still catch you looking at me
and you still catch me looking at you."
---
A new student was introduced today.
His name: Sai. And boy did he creep Sakura out. Not only by the fact that he looks almost exactly like Sasuke, but he acts almost exactly like Sasuke too! Except a little more, emotionless. Sakura thought it was impossible but this just proved that anythings possible.
Sai sits behind Sakura in math class. He filled the empty desk that was between Sasuke and her. Weird. She always feels him staring at her back. Actually, she just always feels him staring at her anytime she sees him. Sakura doesn't like it at all, she's starting to not like him either.
Neither is Sasuke, it seems. Sakura always notices him glaring at Sai. Maybe because he pretty much stole his identity. But Sasuke rarely cares about that kinda stuff, so who knows?
Hopefully Sai will just stop bothering Sakura with his creepiness. Sakura isn't one to judge people but he isn't helping at all.
Maybe she'll try to get to know him.
t.r.u.e. .l.o.v.e. .n.e.v.e.r. .d.i.e.s.
It was the class before lunch, math class. Class was almost over already. The teacher had given them the rest of the period to work on their homework. He allowed them to work with partners. It was nice and all, but too bad Tenten wasn't here this period which left Sakura no one to work with.
Sakura sighed while trying to solve a math problem. "Negative two x plus six is greater than four." She read it out loud. She resolved to reading it out loud because of the (Distracting) loud noises around her. "Aha! I minus six from both sides and it leaves me with negative two x is greater than negative two." She scribbled what she said onto her paper. Then someone tapped her shoulder.
Sakura spun around and saw Sai. Staring once again. "Yes?" She asked.
He pointed to the worksheet. "Can you help me?"
"Oh sure." She smiled.
A snap was heard. Sakura looked behind Sai and he looked behind himself too. Sasuke had just stopped writing. His pencil had broke.
Sakura lifted an eyebrow as Sasuke looked up from his paper to give Sai a quick glare before getting up and sharpening his pencil.
Sai turned back to Sakura. "He seemed angry." He smiled. It looked like he was trying to force it. Well, maybe he wasn't so emotionless.
"Well, that's Sasuke for you." She smiled back. "So which problem do you need help with?"
He turned his paper upside down so Sakura could read it. "Number three. I did it and all, but when I try to check it, it comes out wrong."
Sakura examined the problem. "Oh, that's because you forgot to switch the sign. You divided by negative five so you need to switch the sign from greater than to less than."
"Oh, ok. Now I see." He erased his answer and wrote down what Sakura told him to do. "Thanks, Sakura."
"No problem." She flashed him a bright smile.
Another snap was heard. Sai didn't bother to turn around but Sakura looked behind him. Sasuke had broken his pencil again. He shifted his eyes to look at Sakura, she was looking at him but then he quickly looked away, back to his paper. But he didn't get up to sharpen his pencil.
The lunch bell rang. Sakura turned back around to gather her things. Once she was all packed up, she walked out the class room into the hall. Most kids were already at lunch, so the halls were a bit empty. Sakura sauntered her way to lunch.
"Sakura."
She stopped and Sasuke walked up next to her. "Why were you talking to Sai?"
"Because I can." She answered with a bored look.
"No."
Sakura glared at him. "What do you mean 'No'?!"
"No." He repeated again.
"Who the hell do you think you are?!" She furrowed her eye brows. "Telling me who I can and can't talk to!"
For a split second the hubris Uchiha looked at Sakura like she had grown another head. "Obviously, me, Uchiha Sasuke."
Sakura rolled her eyes. "Sasuke, your ego is as big as Naruto's appetite for ramen!"
And boy was that big.
Grunt. "Whatever. Just stay away from that bastard."
Sakura really didn't feel like dealing with this now, she was hungry! So she went along with it. "Ok, Sasuke, whatever you say." Sarcasm dripped in her voice.
"Hn." And with that he turned away and walked down the empty hall.
Once he was out of ear shot, Sakura snorted. "Noooot!" Her tiny hands formed a fist with her thumb pointing out and poked it into her chest, "I'll do whatever I want!" She stuck her tongue out like a child at Sasuke's back and turned around, walking the other way to the cafeteria.
t.r.u.e. .l.o.v.e. .n.e.v.e.r. .d.i.e.s.
Sakura walked into the cafeteria, brown paper lunch bag in one hand, green apple in the other.
She took a bite of her apple as she approached her friends' table. But she came to a halt just before reaching the table. The sight before her eyes was just plain unbelievable!
A few tables away, Sasuke's table, a girl was sitting on Sasuke's lap.
This girl (coughwhorecough) had long (ugly!) black (ugly ugly!) hair. Her skin was a (ugly ugly ugly!) weird light shade of orange, due to fake tanning. Her eyes were (ugly ugly ugly ugly!) black. She wore her skirt very high (shit, if she bent over you can see everything, i mean EVERYTHING -shudder-). The sweater-vest that was part of the uniform that girls were supposed to wear, wasn't on her, instead she only had the white button-up shirt on, her tie was loosened, and her shirt was unbuttoned at the top, giving anybody a peek. And instead of wearing normal school shoes or sneakers like other girls, she wore heels. She wore huge black hoops for earrings, and pounds of makeup. (ugly ugly ugly ugly UGLY!)
This wasn't just a girl.
It was Karin.

Said girl was running her fingers through Sasuke's (so soft & perfect) hair, giggling like the air head she was. Sasuke even had his arm round her waist.
....?
Wait...
Am i on crack or is this real?
Sakura blinked a few times. Nope, they were still like that alright. And she wasn't on crack.
This was real.
"Sakura?"
Sakura was snapped out of her thoughts by her best friend Ino, who had walked up to her. "Huh?" She faced her friend.
Ino had a concerned look on her face. "Are you alright?"
Am i alright?
Sakura turned her attention back to Sasuke and Karin.
FLASH!
Sakura cranked her arm back, apple in hand, aimed for Karin's (UGLYYY!) face. Once she was sure it would be a direct hit, she whipped the apple with all her might (and inhuman strength. Ouch.).
Karin shrieked as the apple made contact with her face and caused a loud THUD! when her fat self hit the ground due to the impact.
"BINGO!!" Sakura roared in evil laughter as she threw he hands up in the air.
FLASH!
"Sakura?" Ino called once again.
Sakura snapped out of her sweet fantasy and nodded. "Yeah, it's totally fine!" She smiled.
Psh, it's totally not.
t.r.u.e. .l.o.v.e. .n.e.v.e.r. .d.i.e.s.
Sakura walked into her room and shut the door behind her. She tossed her bag in a random direction and jumped onto her bed. She landed on her stomach. She allowed herself to spread her body out on her bed. Sakura let out a long sigh, though it was muffled because her face was in her pillows.
Today's event had taken a toll on her. Sakura had though that maybe, just maybe, her and Sasuke could've gotten back together. He had given her small hints!
FLASH!
"It's about time."
Sakura looked up. In the cherry blossom Sasuke was sitting on a tree branch with his back against the tree, one leg up to his chest, and the other dangling. He didn't even look at Sakura. Her stomach fluttered a bit.
"Well you could've told me you wanted to meet here." She rolled her eyes.
"We always meet here."
"Correction: met."
Sasuke shifted his eyes toward her. Sakura stared back in mock innocence.
He averted his eyes from Sakura's emerald ones. "Tch. Whatever."
-
He had met where they had always met when they were together, where they shared many memories. Maybe it was a hint..
-
FLASH!
"Are you finally done making googly eyes at my brother?"
Sakura whipped around. Sasuke was seated at the grand piano, with his arms crossed, scowling at the poor thing. "I most definitely was not making googly eyes at Itachi!" She glared at him.
"Hn. Whatever."
FLASH!
"Sakura."
She stopped and Sasuke walked up next to her. "Why were you talking to Sai?"
"Because I can." She answered with a bored look.
"No."
Sakura glared at him. "What do you mean 'No'?!"
"No." He repeated again.
-
Maybe he's even given her signs of jealousy..
-
FLASH!
Inner Sakura: He toyed with your emotions.
Sakura clutched her comforter.
I don't want to think that..
A vibration in Sakura's pocket startled her out of her thoughts. Sakura fished through her pocket and pulled her phone out. She looked at her phone. It read:
New Text!
From: Ino-Pig
Sakura clicked 'ok' and it went straight to the text message:
-
omg sakura! guess what i just found out.
-
Sakura raised an eyebrow in curiosity. He hit the reply button and wrote:
-
what Ino-pig?
-
Within seconds, she received a reply from Ino:
-
sasuke and karin are really going out! & not just that! I heard
that after you guys broke up they had started talking like in
that kind of way and hooking up! he's such an asshole!
-
Sakura gaped at her phone. Now she felt like ripping both Sasuke's and Karin's eyes out, tying their eye strings together and choking them with it.
Did Sasuke break up with her for Karin?
Karin?
KARIN?!

I enjoyed writing this chapter a lot for some reason :) If you're wondering why I randomly introduced Sai in this chapter, it's for a good reason. Thank you to those who reviewed the previous chapters. Please review and tell me what you think.
P.S. Reviews make me write! :)
