--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 10
They stepped into the room and put down their bags and started reviewing their scripts and Kiba scurried through the words and tried to take in as much as possible.
"Come on…we don't have all day you know…" The teacher said.
Then the play started, showing a fight erupting, it was actually a fight between the two main families in Verona, the Montagues and the Capulets. Next, the prince of Verona, Kiba, steps forward and halted the crowd, but he forgot what he was suppose to say.
"CUT! This is preposterous…did you not recite the scripts?" The teacher raged.
"Gomen nasai…I didn't…" Kiba apologized.
"Tomorrow's rehearsal had better be good…if you still didn't get it in your head by hard…I will FAIL your literature!"
"Okay…I got that…gomen…"
"Dismissed…" The teacher stated flatly.
They took their bags and went out of the room.
"Well…that went swell…never mind, at least he didn't scold us all in a batch…" Natsume said.
"Yah…she's right…" Neji said.
"The spirit of pure optimism beats the gloomy sadness…lets cry for optimism…" Rock said.
Natsume took out a hammer from no where and started bonking Rock Lee's head.
"Stop gibberishing…we don't need your speech at this point of time…" Natsume said.
"Okay then…see you…jaa…" Gaara and Sakura chorused.
"We're going off too…jaa…wait for us…" Ino said, dragging Shikamaru by the arms.
"I'm very tired…going to take a nap…see you guys tomorrow…yawn…" Neji said.
"I'm going home now to memorize the script…jaa…" Kiba said.
"Can you give me a lift, Sasuke?" Lee said.
"Me too…" Natsume said, grinning.
"Sure…no problem…"
Sasuke drove the car over, got out of the car and opened the front door for Natsume.
"Rock…the back…" Sasuke said.
"Arigatou Sasuke-kun" Natsume thanked.
Lee had to abide by it; he had no choice if he wanted a free ride.
"Just drive straight, and then turn left, straight, left, straight then right…" Rock said, guiding Sasuke as he came along.
"Thanks…" Lee said and ran into the house.
"Now with Lee gone, I can do what I want at last… (don't think horny people)" Sasuke said.
"What do you want to do…?" Natsume said, taking off her high heels, preparing to attack.
Sasuke got out of the car, leaving Natsume in the car, puzzled. He opened the boot and took out two boxes, one bigger than the other. He then opened the back door, placed the two objects at the back seats and then sat in the driver's seat.
"Hmmm…let me bring you somewhere…" Sasuke said, adding, "Or do you want to go somewhere?"
"Yes…HOME…what do you want to do with me you pervert!" Natsume said.
"Relax…we've reached…geez…this is what I get for remembering…you better apologize to me later…" Sasuke said.
"Apologise for what…you even brought me to such a desolated place…I know what thoughts are squirming in that disgusting head of yours…" Natsume said.
"Hey…enough with the cussing…" Sasuke said, turning to the back and taking the two boxes forward.
"What are these?"
"Okay…I'm all set…"
"Don't move any closer…I swear I will hit you…"
Sasuke took out a lighter from his pocket and opened the box, revealing an ice-cream cake. He put on the candles and sang the birthday song, after that he pushed the wrapped up box to Natsume.
"For you…" Sasuke said, then added, "Don't just stare at it, open it up…"
Natsume opened it, and then took out the ipod nano from the box; the box was filled with manuals.
"ARIGATOU SASUKE-KUN…for remembering my birthday and celebrating it with me…and GOMEN for scolding you…" Natsume said with tears flowing out, sticking out her tongue.
"Its okay…no harm done right…hahah…"
Natsume put down the flames and dove forward to hug Sasuke.
"Arigatou…no one has ever done this for me except my family…from deep in my heart…a big thank you…" Natsume said, crying even harder.
"There there…" Sasuke said, patting Natsume on the back.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the entrance of Natsume residence…
"Thanks for everything…jaa…!"
"Jaa"
But Sasuke didn't leave, he had instead, watched as Natsume open the door for a surprise her family had planned.
"Surprise…happy birthday daughter…" Natsume's mom said.
Sasuke just looked over from afar, smiling to himself.
"If only she knew how fortunate she is…to have such a caring family…" Sasuke thought inwardly.
As Sasuke was just about to speed off, Natsume shouted, "Hey Sasuke-kun…wanna come in…cause you are cordially invited to my mini birthday party…"
"Hn…I'll have to consider that…" Sasuke said.
"Come on over…think no more…" Natsume said with a toothy grin.
"Alright I guess…but I won't stay long…"
"Doesn't matter…"
Sasuke parked the car and went into Natsume's house.
"Your parents sure spent some effort doing all this…" Sasuke said, pointing to the decorations all over the place.
"Yea…none of the parents on this planet can beat them…right, mom and dad?"
"You betcha…" Natsume's dad said.
"One and only…" Mrs. Uzumaki said.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'll have to leave now…had my fill of the cake already…" Sasuke said.
"Okay then…take care…"
"Jaa…"
Upon saying that, Sasuke walked out of the abode and strolled to his car, he then sped his way home.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day…
"Riiiiiiiiiing…" The school bell rang.
"Hurry up…or we're going to be late…" Sasuke said.
"Okay okay…relax…its just getting a bit late…"
"A BIT LATE…A BIT LATE…WE'RE ALREADY FIFTEEN LATE…AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT…"
Flashback…
"Hello Sasuke"
"Yea what…I'm reaching class…"
"Oh…you see I'm in a small predicament now…"
"Yes…continue…"
"I just woke up…so can you turn back and fetch me to school now?"
"NANI! School's just about to start in five minutes and you're still in bed!"
"Gomen…but could you just help please…we may make it just in time…"
"That's your problem…"
"Please Sasuke-kun…pleeeeeease…"
"Alright…but you'd better thank me big time for this…"
"Thanks Sasuke-kun…"
Sasuke drove back, towards Natsume residence. Upon reaching, he saw Natsume waiting at the entrance, dressed in disarray.
"Hop in…going to be freaking late…"
After Natsume went into the car, Sasuke stepped on the gas pedal, ignoring the speed limits, going pass a hundred and sixty kilometers an hour. They reached school in time to hear the bell ring.
End flashback…
They slammed open the class door only to invite glares directed to them.
"Mr. Uchiha and Ms. Uzumaki…well done…congratulations on getting late…detention for both of you…" The teacher said in a stern voice.
"May make it in time you say…geez…" Sasuke exclaimed.
"Hey…how would I know…I woke up late because of celebrating yesterday"
Only at that point did they realize that many people were looking at both of them.
"What are they looking at?" Natsume asked.
"Beats me…" Sasuke said.
"They're looking at both of you because of your clothings…their all disheveled…don't tell me both of you went to bed yesterday and…"
"URESAI!" Natsume and Sasuke chorused.
(A/N: Sasuke's clothes are messed up cause Natsume keep tugging at his shirt while they were going to school, ushering him to go faster…as for Natsume's clothes…she woke up late, so she wore in a slipshod way…)
"We did no such thing okay…teme…" Sasuke said.
"Yup…you people are perverse…" Natsume stated.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After school…
Sasuke and Natsume walked together to the staff room. They entered it and began looking for the teacher that punished them.
"Teacher…can't you just let us off…we have a very important rehearsal to attend to…"
"No can do…go to classroom twelve for your detention…"
"Okay…" Sasuke said.
"Gomen…" Natsume said.
Then both of them scurried of, making their way to the detention room.
"Why did you apologize? She's just a ruddy old teacher…" Sasuke said.
"Manners are important…and we're in the wrong anyways…"
"Not we…YOU…"
"Okay…relax…"
They found the room, and then stepped in. Each step into the room was played in slow motion (like those people going to jail). Then they found two unoccupied seats and sat down. A teacher was seating at the teacher's desk, marking his papers.
"Hey guys…it's the two first years that had sex…" A random guy also having detention said.
"URESAI!" Sasuke said.
The teacher remained undisturbed and continued scribbling remarks on the papers.
"Hey Uchiha…you want to pick a fight huh…think you're brave huh…then bring it on…"
"Why you son-of-a…" Sasuke said, getting cut of by Natsume.
"Please Sasuke-kun…I don't want fights because of me…" Natsume whispered.
"Alright then…but that guy really gets on my nerves"
After the hour that they were supposed to serve, they were released, and started running to the 'practice room'.
"Gomen nasai…we had detention so couldn't make it in time…" Natsume explained.
"PREPOSTEROUS…PREPOSTEROUS I SAY…I shall hear of no such nonsense next time…and there better be no more of such things happening anymore…" The teacher yelled.
"Gomen…" Sasuke said.
"Okay…time is short…let's get this moving…"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A week later…
"You sure we can do this…" Natsume asked.
"Yes…chill…" Sasuke said.
"But we've never practiced the kissing part at all…"
"Don't worry about it…just do your best…"
"Okay then…here I go…"
And the play started, as the play is kinda boring…I shall fast forward it to the end where the crucial part comes in…
Narrator: Romeo seeing Juliet lying on the floor, then runs off to the drug store…
Apothecary: What can I do for you sir?
Romeo (Sasuke): I would like to buy the most lethal poison that you have
Apothecary: What for…surely not for your own use?
Romeo: Yes…it is indeed for my consumption…to die for my true love, I have no qualms to die whole-heartedly for it…
Apothecary: I don't know if I should be doing this…here's the object you desire…farewell…die with your loved one…
Romeo: Thank you…I shall bid you good-bye now…
Narrator: Romeo runs back to Juliet then takes out the poison and drank it down. At this point, Juliet arises, as if from the dead, only to find Romeo lying on the ground beside her, writhing in agony.
Romeo: Thy love is not slain? Then I've done a fatal error?
Narrator: Romeo coughs and lies dead on the ground.
Juliet: Oh Romeo…let thee die with you…
Narrator: Juliet kisses Romeo in a bid to drink up the last few drops of poison…
"Errr…how to do this…take a deep breath Natsume…it will be done in a few seconds…" Natsume thought to herself.
Natsume lunges down and kissed Sasuke, it was her first kiss, thus causing a definite adrenaline rush, causing her to blush. Then she lies down on the ground, dead.
Narrator: Juliet lies dead on the ground, the heads of the Montague and Capulet family gathered and seeing at last, with their bare eyes, the love of two that ends the line of the both families (as both are the only descendants left). Only at the end did they realize the foolishness of their feud.
The crew takes a bow as the curtain draws.
"I feel ecstasy from Sasuke…" Kiba said, mockingly.
"No I do not…I don't feel that way at all…" Sasuke said.
"Don't lie…we all know that you like her…" Gaara said.
"Natsume…don't listen to them…do you want me to fetch you home?" Sasuke said.
"Yea…I would like that…"
Both of them quickly changed and went to Sasuke's car.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the car…
"Do you really…ermmm…you know…like…" Natsume mumbled.
"Huh? No clue about what you're mumbling about…"
"Okay then…I'm relieved…"
"We've arrived…jaa"
"Jaa…see you tomorrow…"
"Yea…same to you…"
Sasuke then sped off, leaving Natsume staring at the place where the car has left. She then snapped out of it and walked into the house.
