Welcome To Camp Nightmare
Chapter 3
"W-Who are you?" Sakura tried hard not to sound scared.
"Me? I am Chika, Sasuke's girlfriend. These are my friends, Ami and Tami." The girl named Chika pointed at two girls standing on either side of her. They were twins. Both had long brown hair pulled into a ponytail. Their chocolate eyes gleamed with malice. The only difference was one had a blue camp shirt on and the other a black one. Chika herself was a more then beautiful. She had shoulder length black hair that seemed to glow. Her mint green eyes were perfect. She had expensive looking shorts on with a shirt that could have been worn by a celebrity.
"Don't think I haven't noticed how much time you've been spending with him. Not only are you in all his activities but you and your dorky friends sit with him almost every meal! Well we don't like it." Chika's friends Ami and Tami nodded and cracked their knuckles.
"We are about to show you what happens when you mess with my Sasuke-kun!" Chika, Ami, and Tami charged. Sakura turned and started running wildly through the forest.
'Help somebody!' Sakura thought as sticks scratched her arms and tore her clothes. Soon her vision became blurred because of the tears that stung her eyes.
"Get her! Move faster you idiot!" Sakura felt them getting closer and closer. They started throwing sticks at her. One hit Sakura in the head. It was pretty hard too. She fell down and coughed from the dirt that got in her mouth. Sakura was lying there, crying.
"Ha! Look at little miss pinky now!" Chika jeered.
"Leave her alone." A voice said. Chika, Ami, and Tami looked around. Sasuke stepped out from behind a shadowy tree and stood behind Sakura. Without thinking Sakura ran forward and wrapped her arms around him. He didn't seem to mind. Sakura was still sobbing.
"Sasuke! It's me, future Mrs. Chika Uchiha!" Chika said loudly, ignoring Sakura completely. Chika's, Ami's, and Tami's cheeks were burning.
"Get lost, loser. I wouldn't date you if you were the last living thing on earth." Sasuke was showing Chika no mercy. He didn't have much mercy when it came to fangirls. Chika started crying.
"Sasuke you are so hot but so rude!" She and her friends turned and ran.
'I have to agree with Chika for once.' Sakura thought, not aware that she was still clinging to Sasuke.
"You're getting my shirt wet." Sasuke felt uncomfortable. He wasn't very good at emotional stuff.
"Thank you Sasuke! Who knows what they would have done to me if you hadn't come along!" Sakura buried her face into his chest. Then she realized what she was doing and stepped away from him.
'She could have stayed a little longer…' Sasuke thought. He watched her back away. Sakura's face was red when she said,
"So, uh, yeah. Thanks."
"Hn. Your welcome." Sasuke answered.
"What did you say?" Sakura looked at him.
"You hard of hearing? I said your welcome." Sasuke put his hands in his pockets and walked pass Sakura.
"You coming?" He looked over his shoulder.
"I'll take you back to your cabin." He continued walking. Sakura ran until she was next to him.
'Who is this guy and what has he done with Sasuke?' Sakura couldn't believe that Sasuke had manners, even if it was just a little bit. Still, it was an improvement and Sakura liked it.
"What's up? You look like you're just staring into space." Sasuke watched as the pink haired girl try to come up with an excuse.
"Oh, it's nothing." Sakura and Sasuke finished their walk in silence. The sun began to set as they approached Sakura's cabin. Girls could be heard franticly running around.
"Thanks again." Sakura said.
"Hn." Sasuke turned to leave.
'Maybe he didn't change that much…' Sakura thought, slightly annoyed.
"Just make sure you get cleaned up. You look pretty bad." Sasuke walked away, regretting that last lie he told Sakura.
'Why am I thinking these thoughts? This stupid camp food must be making me sick.' Sasuke shook his head in attempt to clear it. Sakura walked inside her cabin and thought a tornado had hit.
"Oh my gosh, Sakura!" All her friends came running forward, asking a million questions at the same time. Sakura tried to calm them down but found she couldn't. So she got a shower and put on clean pajamas and sat on her bed, waiting for them to relax. When they did Sakura explained what happened in the forest. She got to the part where Chika and her guards attacked her when TenTen interrupted.
"I can't believe her! I swear, I'm gonna make her pay for that!"
"Y-Yes. It was very r-rude." Hinata stuttered angrily. Emiko shook her head and Temari muttered
"Stupid fangirls. Sheesh, the things they do for love…" But after the story was over all of them, except Ino, were going
"Aww! You two are such a good couple!"
"No, we are not!" Sakura couldn't look at Ino, who looked kinda down.
"I-I think we need some sleep." Hinata said and the others agreed. So they all lay down and fell asleep. The next morning, during breakfast, Josh passed out flyers. They were advertising a camp dance. A new store was going to open that sold fancy dresses and such. Sakura and her friends were all giggling and discussing what they were going to wear, despite the fact that their crushes were sitting with them and couldn't care less.
"A dance, how troublesome… I wonder who I'll go with…" Shikamaru stretched his arms and Temari couldn't help but blush.
"I wonder who Sasuke will go with." Lee said looking around the mess hall. A lot of girls were flipping out.
"OMG Sasuke is so going with me!"
"Yeah right, he's going with me!"
"No me!" And so on. Sakura shoved a fork full of eggs into her mouth.
"I don't think I'll go." Sasuke shrugged.
"What? Why?" Ino asked suddenly. Everyone stared at her.
"I-I mean, a lot of people will be disappointed if you don't go. At least pick somebody so the other girls don't think they still have a chance."
'Nice save Ino.' Sakura smiled at her friend. Ino grimaced back. Unfortunately they had to wait until after lunch to go shopping. They were allowed to have all afternoon looking at the dresses. The dance was going to be next Friday. Sakura was nervous. The only person she wanted to go with was Sasuke. Sighing she made her way to the wood collecting area. The counselor was a guy named Max.
"Move it you maggots- I mean precious gifts from above." Max forced a smile on the campers. He always paired up the campers. The 'buddy' system he called it. Well, for the first time since they arrived Sasuke got parried up as Sakura's buddy. And she couldn't have been happier. They traveled far into the woods looking for dried firewood. They joked around and thankfully Chika wasn't there. The only sad thing was the entire time Sakura was trying to talk with Sasuke girls came running up asking to go to the dance. After the 15th interruption Sasuke stomped his foot on the ground. Without thinking Sasuke asked,
"Sakura, do you want to go to the dance with me?" No sooner were the words out of his mouth a dozen or so girls said
"No!" and ran off crying.
"M-Me? Are you sure?" Sakura felt her heart speed up.
"Yeah. I mean, unless you were planning on taking somebody else…" Sasuke tried to act cool again.
"Sure. I would love to." Sakura smiled. Blushing she picked up some more wood and walked back to the wood area. Sasuke heard Max yelling in the distance.
'I can't believe I just asked a girl to the dance.' Sasuke stared at the spot where Sakura had been standing. The very idea was odd, scary.
LATER THAT DAY…
Sakura had gone to lunch and told her friends everything. They all gasped.
"Are you serious?" Emiko questioned.
"Dead serious." Sakura told them. Ino looked really mad.
"What, he saves you from angry fangirls and now you're a princess?" Ino snapped. Sakura seemed taken back.
"Ino-" Sakura started but Ino cut her off.
"Don't Ino me. You knew I liked Sasuke and yet you agreed to go out with him! I hate your very soul Sakura!" Ino stomped off.
"Ino!" Sakura called.
"Don't worry Sakura. Ino just needs some time alone." Temari tried to comfort her friend.
"Yeah, tomorrow will be better." Hinata said without stuttering. The girls decided to go shopping for their dresses. The store had opened earlier that day and already had a lot of sales. There was one for girls and another for guys. Sakura thought the girl's looked nicer. Best of all, it was completely free! Sakura and her friends wasted no time.
"Hey, look at these dresses guys!" Emiko called from on corner of the store. For the first time all day Sakura forgot about Ino and joined her friends.
A/N: I think you'll like their dresses. I thought of them during church. Poor Ino, but I had to do it, I really did. So sorry Ino fans!
