-Konoha-
Everyone was reported at Tsunade's office, including Sasuke and the rest of Hebi.
"So you're back for good?" Tsunade said, her eyes on Sasuke. She slowly poured the sake into the cup.
"Yes," Sakura said.
"The question is to be answered by Sasuke, not you Sakura." Tsunade said quite coldly. Sakura looked a bit surprised at her tone, but remained silent. Sai, Lee, and Naruto looked worriedly at Sakura. She was a sensitive person after all.
"So.. Are you, Uchiha Sasuke?" Tsunade said once again, looking sharply at Sasuke.
"Yes." Sasuke replied.
"And your so-called friends?" Tsunade said, looking at Hebi.
"They are with me." Sasuke said. "They won't do any harm."
"How do we know if we can trust them?" Tsunade said, raising her eyebrow. "One of them has betrayed Sakura after all."
"She learned her lesson," Sasuke said, glaring at Karin, who was looking away. "Besides, everyone is fond of Sakura and other konoha-nins."
Tsunade continued to look at Sasuke with a little doubt in her eyes. She then sighed.
"If anything suspicious happens, all four of you will be out of Konoha for good." Tsunade said, then she drank her sake. "You guys are dismissed."
Tem 6, 7, 8, 9, and Hebi were all going out to eat now. They had so much to talk about. As they were walking to the BBQ place, requested by Chouji, Sakura saw someone familiar.
"Gaara!" Sakura called out, running up to the red-haired kazekage. Sasuke frowned at this, including Naruto, Lee, and Sai.
"Sakura," Gaara said, so happy to see her back. Sakura gave him a quick hug.
"What are you doing here?" Sakura said, smiling brightly.
"You know.. The usual stuff," Gaara said. "When did you get back?"
"Sakura," Sasuke said, which caused Sakura and Gaara to turn around. "We better get going." He said, glaring at Gaara.
"Oh," Sakura said. "Gaara should come with us!"
Sasuke wasn't happy to here this at all, but Gaara tagged along anyways. Sakura was busy talking to Gaara about what has been happening while Sasuke, Sai, Lee, and Naruto were busy glaring at Gaara.
"N-naruto-kun.." Hinata, who was walking beside Naruto, said.
"huh?" Naruto said, turningh is attention to Hinata, who was red.
"H-how w-was the m-mission?" She said shyly.
"Oh, it was fine." Naruto said.
"Oh," Hinata said, not knowing what to say next. She was never very talkative.
"So, Temari and Kankuro are here also?" Sakura asked Gaara.
"Yeah," Gaara replied.
"There will be another competition between Ino and Temari," Sakura said, sighing. Gaara smiled at her comment. "So... DId you miss me?" Sakura said, teasing Gaara.
"Very funny, Sakura," Gaara also teased her.
"Thanks, I find myself very humorous sometimes, too." Sakura said, giggling a bit.
"We're here!" Chouji yelled excitedly, storming into the restaurant. Everyone's sweat dropped.
"Someday, he will be buying this whole restaurant," Shikamaru said.
"I agree," Ino said, shaking her head.
Everyone took a seat, although Karin, Suigetsu, and Juugo felt sort of uncomfortable. Suigetsu has become a good friend of Sakura after all, while Juugo was a sweetie to everyone. Karin was... just there.
Boys were competing to sit next to Sakura. Gaara was already next to her, so there was only one more spot left.
'This is my chance!' Naruto and Lee thought. However, Sasuke was too fast for them; he quickly took a seat next to Sakura, while Sai decided to sit infront of her (smart one). Naruto and Lee groaned, but decided to sit next to Sai, which was the closest they could get to Sakura.
"Let's order some sake!!" Ino said excitedly. "We're so getting drunk tonight."
"Woman, calm down," Shikamaru commented.
"Shut up!" Ino said.
"I-I c-can't drink," Hinata said quietly, which no one could hear but Neji.
"Don't you dare to drink," Neji said like a strict big brother.
"Aww, let her have some fun!" Tenten said, elbowing Neji.
"Shannaro!!" Sakura screamed excitedly.
"S-Sakura-chan.. Are you sure about this?" Naruto said, with a sweat drop.
"Hell yea!" Sakura said, absolutely out of control.
So basically... Everyone was playing a drinking game. The person who lost had to drink a bottle of sake every time. About 3 hours later, everyone was passed out except for some, including Sasuke and Gaara. Karin was currrently clinging onto Sasuke, pretending she was drunk.
"Get off," Sasuke said coldly.
"Aw, Sasuke-kun!" Karin said, leaning against him. So Sasuke decided to push her away, causing her to lean over Juugo, who was passed out on the table.
Sakura was still conscious, but she never stopped drinking. She has currently finished her 8th bottle.
"Eh? There's no more?" Sakura said, looking into the bottle. "More!!"
"Stop Sakura," Gaara said, getting the bottle away from her, which caused her to whine.
"You stop!" Sakura said. "Stupid panda!"
Ino started laughing hysterically, slapping Shikamaru's back at Sakura's comment.
"HAHAHA!! Good one, Sakura!" Ino said, laughing.
"Ino-pig," Sakura murmured, which stopped Ino from laughing.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY??" Ino screamed. "Forehead-girl!!"
"Hey, I like my forehead, okay?" Sakura said lazily. "Now where's my sake??"
Sakura then suddenly passed out, banging her forehead on the table. Everyone was used to this, so they didn't say anything. The next morning, she'll be wondering why her head hurt so much.
"Uchiha Sasuke," Gaara then said, looking at Sasuke.
"Gaara of sand, huh?" Sasuke said, smirking.
"Now tell me what you're doing here," Gaara said, crossing his arms.
"I have no reason to," Sasuke said, also crossing his arms.
Gaara smirked and said, "If you're planning something that includes Sakura, stop right now."
Sasuke glared at Gaara before saying, "and why would I listen to you?"
"I'm warning you," Gaara growled. "I won't let you hurt her again."
"it all depends on who she chooses," Sasuke said, quite confidently.
"Ha.. What makes you think that she'll choose you?" Gaara said, smirking.
"I know her better than you," Sasuke said.
"3 years is a long time, Uchiha, and people change." Gaara said. "And I was the one to be by her side."
"So were Naruto, Lee, and Sai." Sasuke said. "But she never returned her feelings to them nor you.. I wonder why?"
Gaara was now glaring at Sasuke, who glared back.
"So you want a competition, huh?" Gaara said, smirking.
"You're welcomed to join," Sasuke said, also smirking.
"Get ready to lose, Uchiha." Gaara said, putting his hand out for a shake.
"No," Sasuke said, shaking Gaara's hand. "You get ready."
