Under His Spell
Chapter Four: Sasuke Makes His Move
Three days had passed. Zelda was finally recognized by Iruka, who was too busy dealing with Naruto and his mischievous acts.
"Sorry 'bout that, Zelda," Iruka said. "How many days have you been here so far?"
"Wow… " Shikomaru muttered dreamily to himself.
"Four," answered the annoyed princess, walking back to her seat in between Sasuke and Sakura. "I've been here for four days."
"Oh, right."
"… She's sooo hot!" Uh-oh… This can't be! Shikomaru???!!!
"She's what?" Chouji exclaimed in a whisper to Shikomaru.
"What are you looking at?"
"Heh… Heh… Shikomaru digs Zelda!"
"Shut up!"
Iruka heard a creak and looked over to the windows. Naruto was trying to escape the classroom by climbing out the window.
"NAAAARUUUTO!!!!!"
Naruto suddenly fell back and hit his head against the table where Sasuke was sitting.
"Loser…" he muttered under his breath.
"Is he alright?" Zelda asked.
"Why would you care?" Sakura snapped. "All you care about is Sasuke."
Zelda looked at her ex-friend. "This isn't about Sasuke, is it, Sakura."
Sakura gave her an angry look and turned away. She's rival number one. She'll be sooo sorry for stealing my Sasuke!
"Off to detention, Naruto!" Iruka shouted, pulling Naruto's ear towards the door.
"NOOOOOOO!!!!" he cried.
As soon as the door closed behind them, the class started getting out of control again; girls were arguing over Sasuke, guys beating each other up, and Sasuke "flirting" with Zelda, who blushed, smiled, and giggled at Sasuke's "little jokes."
Sakura was sitting crunched up in the corner of the classroom, away from the others. She looked miserable. Zelda glanced at her and saw a small sad tear drop unto her trembling pale hand.
"Sakura?" Zelda said under her breath, slightly turning away from Sasuke.
"Don't worry about her," Sasuke said. "She'll be fine."
"Maybe I should go and…"
"No," he said aggressively. "She doesn't need you, and neither do you."
"But…"
Sakura looked up and saw Zelda and Sasuke sitting next to each other. Zelda returned her look, a worried look appeared on her face when she noticed Sakura's sorrowful frown.
Zelda stood up. She was about to walk over to Sakura and confront her, but just then, Sasuke stood up, too, and took hold of Zelda.
"Let go!" Zelda muttered fiercely to him, struggling to break free from his grip, but he held on tight, and pulled her towards him.
"No!" she screamed.
Everyone stopped and turned their gaze down on Sasuke and Zelda. Apparently, they heard her scream. And… they couldn't believe their eyes! Sasuke's and Zelda's lips finally met.
