I called Hinata, obviously upset.

"Na-na-naruto wants t-t-t-to go with m-me?" she asked when I told her,

"Yes, well, we're all going in a group so I guess...But I'll make Kiba leave so you guys can get some alooone time-giggle-"

"Th-Thank you...Y-your a g-great f-friend..."

"Yeah, I know..."

"So what about K-Kiba?"
"..."

"K-Kumori?"

"He didn't ask me. And he called me ugly,"

"Wh-what?"

"W-well, in context he did,"

"Wow..."

"S-So how long are you going to be mad at him?"

"Until...Until...UNTIL I FEEL LIKE NOT BEING MAD AT HIM!!"

"Y-yeah...S-sure..."

"Hm, anyways. Come over at around 4, we need to do make up and get ready. Kay?"

"Y-yeah sure..!" we hung up and I looked at my dress, -sigh- I shouldn't have been so personal when I chose this... I looked at the clock, 10:00, I thanked god that my sensei said that we would have a break.

"Ok, well, I can go on a walk..."

Kiba's POV:

"Hm...How am I going to make it up to her?"

I didn't understand why she would think I liked Ino. I mean, Ino was cute, but way to clingy... Although I'd probably give her a chance if I ever got one... Not like me and Kumori are gonna get together soon... But...Maybe tonight will change that... But... Ah! What the hell!? Me and Ino. Kiba Inuzuka and Ino Yamanaka... Ino Inuzuka...Me and Kumori. Kiba Inuzuka and Kumori Uchiha... Kumori Inuzuka... I can't tell which one sounds better... I like Kumori, and I love her like a sister... I mean, I always liked her, liked her, but... She'll never like me... So I guess I'll get over it, anyways, Ino's... Interesting. But, I'll figure it out today...

Kumori's POV:

Stupid Kiba... What a freaken faggot... A cute... egotistic... charming... arrogant... funny... faggot... Argh!!! Stop it Kumori!! Get this through your fat head! '.....! HE WILL NEVER, EVER, EVER! LIKE YOU. YOU ARE BEST FRIENDS AND NOTHING MORE!! AHH!! I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU!!! -sigh-I'm going to go train... Maybe that'll get my mind off it. Wow... training during break... How low have you gotten Kumori...What is wrong with you!?

"Keeeyaah!!" I kicked a large rock, then paused, my face turning red, "ITAI!!!" I grabbed my foot, jumping around in pain, god damn! Sensei wasn't kidding when she said, "Focus your chakra or else you'll just hurt yourself." Sheesh! She wasn't damn kidding herself. That freaken hurt!!

"Damn rock..."

"You always were ignorant." Sasuke's voice filled the silence.

"Humph..." I was a loss at words. I wasn't scared. This was a memory from my past... And it made me think of things I didn't want to think. Sasuke...I-I...Why did you have to leave!? Why was revenge so important to you...! Why did you leave me...? Don't I....Matter to you? Doesn't anyone matter to you? I hated him, but I loved him, he was one of my oldest and closest friends, even though he didn't refer to me like that... But I always came to him if something was wrong. He was my cousin/brother, and I loved him, in a sibling-like way. Before I met Kiba he was always... just THERE. Right in front of my face. Frowning when I'd call him Sasuke-bozu or Sasuke-chan. Scowling whenever I messed up his hair. Glaring when I pushed him into the lake. Death glares whenever I'd jump on his back, automatically knowing I wanted a piggy back. Practically trying to kill me with a glance when I accidentally tackled him, only wanting a hug. As much a I didn't want to admit it, I...I missed him. He was my cousin/brother and I loved him. No matter what he did, no matter how far away he was, he would always leave that scar in my life. As much as I wanted to hate him, I couldn't. Something in my heart, wouldn't except that he was gone, it just kept believing the lies it was told. I just couldn't! I wouldn't and would never 'hate him, hate him'. When I said it, it was hollow. To my surprise, when I surfaced from my pool of thoughts, I noticed the tears pouring down my cheeks and off my chin.

"S-Sasuke..." I dropped to my knees, feeling wobbly, "I-I...m-miss...You..." I slumped my shoulders, with my head down, my hair covering my face, "P-Please...Please come back..." I fell forward, wrapping my arms around my knees, shaking and dampening the earth beneath my eyes. I can't stand it without you... Please come back... Please be here with me... Please stop this pain... The hurt I felt was almost unbearable. Please... Come back... Convince me that there is love... Tell me... Tell me that it's ok... Tell me that I... Tell me that I am worth something... Tell me that I am loved... Tell me... Tell me that you love me too...Your sister... Your best friend... The pain in my foot was nothing compared to the one in my chest.

The last thing I saw was a large shadow, and a voice, whispering distantly, "I'm sorry, Kumori... But this is for me. For you. For us. Please forgive me. But nothing will keep me from my destiny."

Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep..Beep..Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP!

I gasped in a breath of air. Feeling as if I'd been pushed under water, with my chest feeling heavy and my skin cold. Was that... Sasuke? Sasuke... Destinies change...Let me help change yours... Let me... Let me tell you things that I never have... Let me uncover the buried secrets I've kept for so long... Let me tell you how I feel... Let me tell you that I love you... Let me tell you that... That I miss you... Please come back brother... I need you in my life... I need you...my brother...
