Anything else?: I decided to add some more characters AND send Sasuke to the ice cream shop. I wanted to increase the suspicion of Itachi and his friend. Random details here and there about things that you probably don't care about. Text messages will be in italics and as well as script form. I really just felt like putting them that way. So it will look REALLY out of place. Minor-Major OOCnees possible! Starts off with text messages, so of course script form and italics. Oh and Original characters thrown in for dialogue that is a little wanted. Oh and of course added in more Naruto characters. Used all three of Deidara's little speech habits.
I'm not really sure how to feel about this
Sasuke: Hey Sakura, what ice cream shop did you go to?
Sakura: We're over in the west part of Konaha City. Its owned by Yasuo, I think it's called "Sweet Fillings"?
Sasuke: Wait. You're in the west part of Konaha City? Isn't that the...
Sakura: No. Sasuke. It isn't and it wouldn't matter anyways. Now if you excuse me, I have a blue moon ice cream cone to enjoy along with a raspberry slushy! I'll talk to you later!
Sasuke ran his fingers through his hair by now it was messy, he couldn't leave it alone for more than ten seconds. He walked the streets waiting to see a taxi (his car had been wrecked by a thief, and his parents were trying to find him one he would like). Sasuke whistled when he saw the yellow car driving slowly looking for customers. The driver pulled over and looked at Sasuke waiting on the young adult to get in. Sasuke walked over and opened the door to the yellow cab and got in.
"Where to kid?" His voice was raspy like he smoked at least two or three packs of cigaretts in one day.
"I think the place is called Sweet Fillings over in the west part of the city?" Sasuke's voice had a bit of an edge to it. He was annoyed with Sakura's choices now. His own brother? (Sure he knew he didn't always treat her the best but that didn't mean go after his brother!).
"The ice cream place?" The man had pulled back out onto the main road that lead to the west part of the city.
Sasuke only nodded and pulled his phone out of his pocket. He had a text message from Shikamaru Nara (which he found very odd). Sasuke opened it and read it slowly. The boy was asking him if he wanted to share a dorm in college. Shit, college. Sasuke groaned softly and leaned his head back. College. I just want a break now! I mean I want to go and get my degree in Law! I need to go! Sasuke sighed and choose not to answer the kid (he had the habit of calling people kids even if they weren't something he picked up from his English teacher Kakashi). He barked orders at everyone, expecting top grades from everyone. When it came to projects Sasuke only worked with Shikamaru and Neji Hyuuga, the two were right below him in grades. He expected only the best from his partners.
Sasuke leaned over to the window and watched the scenary pass him by, it was evening and some of the lights were starting to come on. Many on the streets rushed to get where they were going. It was pointless though, didn't they know they always had tomorrow to finish things up? Though somethings disappeared in a day if you weren't there. Sasuke examined the lights with much boredom, he found the city at night a beautiful sight but now it just bored him. He smirked as thought about all the times that he, Naruto, and Sakura had snuck out at night. Those were the days weren't they? When she would cling to him in fear that they might get caught by a cop or someone, and he would just smirk and make fun of her. Fear was such a small silly thing, taking over the senses when one was anxious or actually afraid.
"Hey kid, we're here. Ten bucks." The driver's voice rang through his ears making them want to pop.
Sasuke pulled out his wallet and handed the man his precious money and got out of the cab. He would have to make up an excuse for why he was here. She knew he hated sweets, detested them. Sasuke walked in and spotted them easily, how hard could it be to spot the pink hair? He noticed someone different with them though. A blonde who (in Sasuke's words) looked as flamboyant as could be. He had his long blonde hair up in a high pony tail, wore a pair of faded capris with a purple tank top. Sasuke rolled his eyes and walked over to Sakura.
"Hey." He chuckled when she almost jumped out of her seat.
"Sasuke!" Sakura glared at him but it softened quickly. "What are you doing here? You HATE sweets!"
Sasuke took the seat beside her and shrugged. "They have good tea here."
The blonde leaned forward and examined Sasuke, a small grin taking over his features. "Are you Sasuke, yeah?"
Sasuke sighed and nodded. "Yes, what's it matter to you?"
Sakura elbowed him. "Sasuke be nice to him he was just asking a you a question. Sorry Deidara, Sasuke's always like this. Mean."
The one who Sasuke now knew as Deidara only laughed. "It's okay. Itachi isn't much nicer, un." He poked Itachi's arm and smiled.
Itachi continued to eat his ice cream, giving the blonde no attention. Sasuke looked around for Yasuo, he really wanted tea. The Sweet Fillings tea was supposed to be the best in Konaha City. Sakura swung her feet as she ate her ice cream, she had changed her clothes since Sasuke's house. She now wore a pair of pink shorts with a white tank top that had a pink heart on it (Summer brings the heat, and plenty of tank tops). Her hair lay lazily on her shoulders, a small curl visable. Her hair was always straight, she must have washed it and not straightened it yet.
Deidara's loud voice was enough to make Sasuke want to send the man flying. Sasuke looked over at the man, he was trying to get some sort of reaction out of Itachi. He rolled his eyes, the man must have had a crush on Itachi or something.
"Oh hello Sasuke!" Yasuo smiled and walked over to Sasuke. "May I get you anything?"
"Tea please. Do you guys do green?" Sasuke looked at her and leaned against his hand.
"Of course we do! We have all kinds of tea!" Yasuo's cheeks were pink.
Sasuke nodded. "Then green tea please." He had this effect on every girl. Yasuo wasn't a girl he was actually even interested in. Yasuo was just another girl, Sasuke wouldn't waste his time on her. She wasn't worth it honestly.
"Sasuke!" Deidara poked his side with a big goofy grin on his face.
Sasuke glared at Deidara and sighed. "Don't touch me. What could you possibly want anyways?"
Deidara smiled sweetly and leaned against his head agaisnt his hand. "You look a lot like your brother, yeah."
Sasuke looked at Deidara, he was hoping the man (if you could even call him that) got the point. "We are brothers?"
Deidara laughed softly. "I know, yeah. I mean you look almost like twins. The same emotionless expressions un. It's annoying. Did you parents never show you how to feel, hm?"
Sasuke groaned. "How stupid are you?"
Itachi looked at Sasuke, anger danced in his eyes. "Do not insult people for no reason Sasuke. You were raised better."
Deidara sighed softly. "No worries, yeah."
Sasuke looked back at Deidara. "And that. What the hell is that? It's really annoying."
Deidara smiled. "Speech habit un." He got up and walked back over to Itachi. He whispered something in his ear and waved. "I'll see you later un. Don't forget to text me hm!" Deidara looked at Sakura and waved. "Bye Sakura! Its was nice meeting you, yeah!"
Sakura smiled sweetly. "It was nice meeting you too! Don't worry I'll kick Sasuke's ass for you!"
Sasuke's cheeks pinked, there it was again. She cursed, why was it when she did that he blushed? It was just a word, something he that just wasn't supposed to come from her mouth. "Sakura!" He grumbled.
Yasuo walked out with a small glass of tea. "Here you are Sasuke!"
Sasuke grabbed the glass from her and sipped, enjoying the flavor and scent. Tea always calmed his nerves. "Thank you Yasuo."
Yasuo bowed and retreated to the back of the shop. Sasuke looked over at Sakura who was practically glaring daggers at him. He felt like he could almost crumble beneathe her harsh glare. Maybe this whole thing had been a bad idea. He should have just went to the gym with Naruto and worked out. It would have went a hell of a lot better than ditching him to be with Sakura. He enjoyed being around her but the way she was acting now wasn't the Sakura he wanted to be around. Then again she was just sticking up from someone who Sasuke was being mean to.
What the Hell am I going to do?
I apologize that this wasn't as long as the other. I had a really bad day today. So please excuse the shortness. I will update as soon as possible.
Vote?
1) Sasuke decides to take Sakura out somewhere.
2) Actually start digging Sasuke! Jeez! xD
3) Throw Deidara back in, we want more of him!
