" Opening The Heart"
" Lunchtime"
" I'm going to pick you up." Deidara said suddenly as he picked up the pink haired girl up bridal style in the middle of the store he worked at.
" Deidara!" Sakura gasped out then the blond smirked at her and started to walk around with her in his arms and playfully moving back and fourth, acting like her legs were about to knock down some shelves.
When he was done playing, he carefully placed her down on her feet with his hands still taking a soft grip on her hips. They stared into each others eyes for a moment before he decided to take the next step and slowly leaned his head down and placed his lips on top of hers.
It was their first kiss to each other.
Sasuke closed the door to his room and walked over to his bed and collapsed on top of his mattress. He closed his eyes, replaying the event that had just taken place. He was not expecting that his mother best friend's daughter was Sakura Haruno. Many questions ran threw his mind as he laid there. How come he never knew that Sakura was going to be his next door neighbor?
He was aware that Ms. Haku, Sakura's mother had a daughter but she was never talked about and whenever he would bring it up to his mom about her, she would change the subject like it was a topic that wasn't supposed to be talked about. Now he thought about it some more, her and her mother don't even have the same last name. He put a mental note reminding himself to ask someone about that later. Also, whenever he would go over to Asuma's home for the family get together, there were not pictures of Sakura anywhere. But he was not that surprised since he wasn't her father.
His mind then snapped back to reality when he heard his cell phone going on and reached down into his pocket to pull the cellphone out. He looked at the display screen and let out a deep sigh. ' Dobe.'
" What."
" Good morning to you too man."
" What do you want?"
" I wanted to see if you wanted to go hang out today. I am so bored!"
" Can't, I have to go to lunch with my mother and my neighbors."
" Man that sucks, skip it."
" I can't."
" Lame."
" Oh but guess who is my neighbor's daughter?"
" Who?"
" Sakura Haruno."
" What? You mean Sakura is back?!"
" Yes dobe and you don't have to yell in my ear."
" I'm coming over right now to visit her."
" No."
" But why not?"
" Because you are an idiot and I already told you I have to go out to lunch with her and her mom. Maybe you can come by after lunch or something."
" Sweet! Are you sure that it's Sakura?"
" Yeah, it's definetly her."
" Have you met her yet?"
" Yep, just not too long ago, I had to return something over there and she was the one who answered the door."
" Is she still hot?"
" I thought you had a thing for Hinata?"
" Yeah I do but you know I used to have a huge crush on Sakura a while ago... but anyways I'm over her now so tell me if she is still hot!"
" She sure is."
" I can't wait to see her. I hope she remembers me!"
" Well she didn't remember me..."
"..."
" Hello?"
" I can't believe someone would forget the almighty Uchiha. Were you bad when you guys had sex or what."
" She said remembers me now it's just when she first saw me she acted like she didn't know who I was then after I told her she remembered me. She apparently had a hang over from the night before."
" Hey Teme?"
" What?"
" I just realized that you are actually talking in this conversation. I guess Sakura is your favorite topic."
Click
" Hello? Teme?"
Sasuke hung up on his best friend and placed his phone on his bed beside him.
" Idiot." Sasuke whispered out as he closed his eyes, deciding to take a quick nap before he had to get ready to go out to lunch.
" Hello?"
" Hey Temari."
" What's going on Sakura?"
" You won't believe who was at my doorstep."
" Hmm a hot sexy male only in his underwear?"
" Well... he is a hot sexy male and I was only wearing my underwear and bra with an opened up shirt."
" Haha."
" Okay it was Sasuke Uchiha."
"..."
" Hello?"
" What the hell was Sasuke doing at your house?"
" He is my next door neighbor and I'm going to go have lunch with him and his mother in a while."
" Holy shit! Have you seen him yet?"
" Yeah I already told you that he was at my doorstep not too long ago."
" Oh yeah sorry... so was it awkward?"
" Yes!"
" How so?"
" Well when I first saw him... I kinda told him that I didn't know who he was."
" WHAT! Why?"
" Because I got freaked out so I lied to him."
" Haha you are something else girl, so how did he take it? Did he remember you?"
" Yeah he does and he kinda seemed pissed off so I told him I was having a hang over which I was thanks to you!"
" Hey after being stuck in that place you needed to have some fun and get laid."
" Whatever."
" Do you think...never mind."
" No tell me."
" Do you think he still talks to Shikamaru?"
" Who Sasuke?"
" Yeah."
" Probably, but hey I better go my mom is back and we are about to head out."
" Alright call me when you get back to give me all of the details!"
" I will later."
" Bye."
Thirty minutes later, Sakura and her mother arrived at the cafe where they were going to meet Sasuke and his mother. They entered the cafe and noticed that the Uchiha's were already there, waiting for them at a nearby table. The two ladies walked over to their table and greeted them.
" Hi Mikoto, sorry if you two have been waiting for us." Ms. Haru said with a smile on her face.
" No not at all, hi Sakura. It's so nice to finally meet you! This is my son Sasuke who I'm sure you met earlier and I am his mother but you can call me Mikoto." Mikoto said to the girl.
" Nice to meet you." Sakura said as she took a seat across from Sasuke.
" Well I need to go to the ladies room." Ms. Haru said after putting her purse down.
" I'll go with you! It will give these two a chance to talk." Mikoto said as she got out of her seat and followed Sakura's mother while the two teens left behind rolled their eyes.
The two teens sat in silence for about a minute even though it seemed like eternity for them. Sakura finally decided to look up at the Uchiha and noticed that he was staring out the window. He noticed her reflection looking over at his direction and turned his head to see her emerald eyes boring into his. Sakura quickly turned her head away and slightly blushed while Sasuke smirked to himself.
" I'm sorry I lied to you." Sakura finally spoken out while avoiding his gaze.
" About what?" Sasuke asked her as he crossed his arms and had a bored expression on his face.
" Earlier when I told you that I didn't remember you and I thought you were some guy at the party I went to last night." Sakura admitted while staring down at her hands while playing with her fingers.
" So you do remember me?" Sasuke questioned her which caused her to raise her head and look up at him.
" Of course I remember you Sasuke. I just got kinda freaked out when you showed up at my doorstep." Sakura said.
" Yeah me too, I wasn't expecting you to be the one to answer the door. Especially in your underwear." Sasuke said while a smirk plastered onto his face while his statement caused the girl to giggle.
" Well well well if it isn't little miss pinky?" A voice was heard and Sakura glanced up from her menu and noticed the male red headed waiter.
" Sasori." Sakura let the name slip out casually from her lips, causing Sasuke to feel a little bit jealous.
" Where have you been Sakura? I haven't seen you in a while." Sasori stated while giving the girl a smile of his own.
" Yeah... about that... I guess you can say I lost myself on the road of life and it took me awhile to find out where I was going if that makes any sense." Sakura chuckled at the awkwardness.
" Yeah I understand well anyways if you need anything, you still have my number right?" Sasori asked and saw her nod her head.
Then Sakura and Sasuke's mothers came back up to the booth and Sakura's mother sat next to her while Sasuke's mom sat next to him.
" Hello ladies, my name is Sasori and I will be your waiter, can I get you guys anything?" Sasori asked with the charm that he used on all of the ladies.
" Mom, you remember Sasori? He was over at our apartment a few times." Sakura told her mother.
" Oh that's right, hello Sasori. Nice to see you again. Can I just have a glass of water?" Her mother asked.
" I will have a glass of water too." Mikoto told the waiter.
" Sure thing, what would you like Sakura?" Sasori asked the pink haired girl.
" A sprite will be just fine Sasori." Sakura said with a smile on her face.
" And what about you sir?"
" Sprite." Sasuke stated out harshly without even taking a glance at the red head.
" Alright, I will be right back with your drinks." Sasori said then walked off to go get them their drinks.
" So Sakura, how are you enjoying being back home?" Mikoto asked the teenage girl.
" It feels like I never left. Asuma is still a jerk to me but whatever- ouch!" Sakura yelled out as she glared over at her mother who had pinched her on the arm.
" I'm kidding!" Sakura lied as she began to rub the area where she was pinched at.
" Well you two haven't had the chance to really talk since he has been back." She told her daughter.
" Yeah right, when he first came home, me and Sasuke were outside and he takes the time to say hi to him yet the only thing he has told me since I have been back is to put some clothes on." Sakura said, causing Sasuke to smirk at her statement.
Sakura looked up to see the smirk on his face and smiled back at him before looking back to her mother.
" Okay, well you know how he is, anyways Sasuke, are you excited about going back to school?" Sakura's mom asked the younger Uchiha.
" Tch." Sasuke responded then looked away but then looked over at his mother who had poked him on his rib.
" Be nice." Mikoto hissed at her son in a deadly tone of voice.
" It's okay, Sakura isn't excited about going to a new school." Sakura's mom told the Uchiha's which caused Sasuke's ears to perk up.
" You aren't going back to Leaf High?" Sasuke raised an eyebrow at the pink haired girl.
" No." Sakura said with a frown on her face as she looked down at her lap.
" You see she kinda got into some trouble last year so she is no longer accepted at Leaf High so instead, she will be going to the alternative school with her friend Temari." Her mother explained.
Sasori then came back over with their drinks and handed them each a paper napkin with their drinks. Sasuke spotted him as he gave Sakura her own napkin and looked carefully to see that there was a message on the napkin. He looked up to see Sakura's expression and saw her smirking just a little bit.
" Now what would you all like to eat?" Sasori asked.
" I'm not that hungry." Sakura said.
" I will have the tuna salad." Ms. Haru said.
" I will have the chicken sandwich." Mikoto said.
" Tomato sandwich." Sasuke mumbled out while watching the male take their orders then left the table.
" I need to go use the restroom, I will be back." Sakura got out of her seat and walked away.
" Sasuke, why don't you invite some of your friends over after lunch and have them get to know Sakura." Mikoto smile happily at her son.
" She already knows them. We did use to go to school together." Sasuke stated while looking out the window.
" Oh I see but wouldn't it be nice if she got reacquainted with her old high school friends?" Mikoto asked him.
" Hn." Sasuke rolled his eyes at his mother.
About 15 minutes later, Sakura came back over to the table and noticed that everyone else had gotten their food and were eating as she took her seat.
" Sakura, nice of you to come back. I was beginning to worry." Ms. Haru said before taking a sip of her water.
" Sorry... I was on the phone with Temari." Sakura told everyone but Sasuke stared at her in the eyes, knowing that she was lying.
Sasuke wasn't an idiot. He noticed that she took forever in the bathroom and when their food came out, they happened to get another waiter while theirs was no where to be seen.
" Sakura, are you sure you don't want anything to eat?" Mikoto asked the female.
" I'm fine but thank you for asking." Sakura replied before taking a sip of her soda.
" Sakura doesn't usually eat during the day time because of her medication." Her mother responded.
' Medication?'Sasuke thought to himself as he noticed Sakura took a glance up at him then back down to the table.
" Oh I see, anyways while you were gone Sakura, we were thinking that maybe after lunch you and Sasuke can go out and hang out with some of his friends." Mikoto suggested.
" Sure, that sounds like fun if that is okay with you Sasuke." Sakura said with a smile on her face while looking over at the younger Uchiha.
" Hn." Sasuke responded but when Sakura saw the smirk on his face she knew his answer was yes.
