Disclaimer- I do not own Naruto!
Author's note- Greetings from Orlando, Florida! I'm enjoying my Christmas break here it's nice and warm! Since it's Christmas Eve I decided to post the new chapter of how dense you can be! Please Review! I love you all! Have a merry Christmas!!
Ding-Dong! "Coming!" A pink-haired woman called out. As she reached for the doorknob to see a familiar raven-haired and grinned, "Hey, Sasuke." "Hey Sakura." Sasuke said casually."So, you still working?" Sasuke asked. Sakura closed the door and shook her head, "Finished most of it. Just having some dinner. Did you have dinner yet? I could make something quick if you want me to." Sakura offered.
"I'll think I'll pass." sasuke said remembering that Sakura wasn't a great cook in high school. Sakura put her hands on her hips and said, "Hey! I know what you're thinking I've become an amazing cook now!" Sakura snapped."I'm sure you have." Sasuke chuckled. "Just because when I was a sophomore in high school and messed up in Home and careers doesn't mean I can't cook!" She yelled.
"It doesn't matter anymore." Sasuke said seriously gazing out the window. "I need to talk to you about something." Sakura looked intently at him and said, "What is it?"
"It's about Hinata and Naruto." Sasuke said looking straight into her eyes.
The Club
"Hinata! How nice to see you after a long time." Ino greeted her. "Ino, your hair is short now" Hinata noticed. Ino beamed, "Yea, I thought you need I needed a little change." "So, there you guys are!" Naruto exclaimed.
"Naruto! You're finally here!" Hinata smiled. "Now, the party can start now Ne?" Tenten joked. The music was blasting Rhianna's new hot song Please don't stop the music.
"Come on let's dance! After all I am single." Karin announced. "Unlike you we're all engaged or married." Ino pointed out. Karin looked around the club and saw a tall guy with onyx eyes and long black hair."Oh my god, who is that hottie?" Karin squealed. "Looks like he's alone." tenten said following her gaze. "Not for long." Karin said while pushing through the crowd to get to the new guy.
"Come on Shikamaru! Let's dance." Ino said pulling him out to dance floor. "Troublesome woman." Shikamaru mumbled while she pulled him out. Even though he would label everything troublesome everyone knew he had a soft spot for Ino Yamanaka which is why they are going to get married soon.
As the couples departed to the dance floor it left Naruto and Hinata at the booth alone. "It's been nice seeing you and getting together like old times." Naruto said truthfully. "I think so too. It's so wonderful to hang out like old times." Hinata said while gazing into his sky blue eyes.
Had his eyes always been so blue? Was his hair always so shiny and his build so muscular? Although he had all these nice features it wasn't those things that drew her to him when they were kids. It was his caring nature and the way he always put other people before himself.
"Is Sasuke upset that you haven't been with him lately?" Naruto inquired. Hinata sipped her drink and said, "No, of course not besides I'm sure he is hanging out with one of his friends." "You better watch out Sasuke might go find someone else to get married to." Naruto ironically said. "Like that would happen." Hinata chuckled.
Sakura and Sasuke
"I'm sure she just wants to hang out with her old friends. You guys haven't been back in years!" Sakura exclaimed. "Yea, but she's been hanging out with Naruto more recently than any other friend." Sasuke said a bit jealous. "Well they have been best friends since kindergarten Sasuke." Sakura pointed out.
"yea, but still hinata and I are the ones getting married soon not her and naruto shouldn't she be here with me.. Her fiancée!?" Sasuke said angrily. "I think someone is a little jealous!" Sakura said.
"No, I'm not." Sasuke said. "Sure, you aren't. That's why you don't want her to hang out with naruto." Sakura said. "Don't think you know everything Haruno because you don't this isn't high school you know." Sasuke said gritting his teeth.
"You're right, its not high school anymore. This isn't about math equations or biology but, you're wrong about one thing.. I still do know everything. It just annoys me that you guys don't see what is in front of your eyes!" Sakura exclaimed. Sasuke said, "What I see in front of my eyes is a very sexy looking woman with long pink hair and emerald eyes who is still single. Who still doesn't know how to cook, who is still best friends with naruto and hinata and who still hasn't found love for herself."
Sakura turned her back to him and said, "So, you think I'm a joke then because I'm not married or engaged or have a boyfriend is that it!?" "No, I just find it odd that you think you know everything about love when you've never been in a relationship or been in love in your life." Sasuke said staring at her.
"How do you know that?" She said turning around. "I have been in love with someone." "Really? What kind of love?" Sasuke said interested. She said, "Unrequited love." "Sasuke asked, "So who's the guy? Do I know him was he in our class?" She just smiled, "Yea, you know him. He's a bit stubborn, over-confident, good looking of course, and has a sense of style."
"Have you even told him you like him? Are you guys even friends?" Sasuke said concerned. " We're friends but that's it." Sakura sadly said. "If you never him he'll never know your feelings." sasuke said truthfully.
Sakura said, "I know the answer I will receive. He already has someone else."
"Ooh, then it looks like you've chosen the worst kind of love haruno. Find a new guy and forget him." sasuke said.
"I can't seem to get him out of my mind. I've tried dating other guys. So, I guess I'll do my best to be noticed by him." Sakura said looking at him. "Good luck with that haruno. The only way you'll ever get noticed from a guy who already has someone else is probably wearing a bikini." Sasuke winked. Sakura blushed, "No way, I think I'd faint." "I bet you'd look cute in a bikini just like hinata does. She barely wears them because she gets so embarrassed. She's so cute." sasuke said smiling. "You really love her don't you, Sasuke." Sakura said.
"Yea, I really do." Sasuke said. Sakura just smiled sadly at him, "Well, you better go now. I'll talk to you some other time." "Okay, thanks for having me over." Sasuke said.
She smiled, "For you anything."
As she shut the door she laughed at herself.. sakura, you idiot. He is getting married to Hinata for goodness sake your best friend.. No way will he even glance your way. Why couldn't she forget him? If only she could forget about him then everyone would be happy...idiot everyone besides you.
Meeting Itachi Uchiha
"I noticed you and wanted to know if you wanted to dance with me?" Karin asked. The raven-haired guy looked at her and said, "Sure, but just one dance." As they danced on the dance floor Hinata said, "Naruto, want to dance?" "Sure, let's go." Naruto accepted. He grabbed her hands as he twirled her around."Hinata Hyuuga." A voice said. She turned around at once to see a tall raven-haired man, "Who are you?" "Itachi uchiha. Pleased to meet my younger brother's soon to be wife." He said holding her hand.
"Pleased to meet you as well. I wanted to meet you sooner but, Sasuke said he didn't want me to meet you till the wedding for some reason." Hinata said casually. "Probably thinks I'll whisk you off your feet." He joked. "Yea, like that would happen. Oh, Itachi this is Naruto Uzumaki my best friend." Hinata said.
"Yea, I know him my younger brother's best friend. I just wonder what you are doing here dancing with his best friend?" itachi said. "Oh, Itachi-san, we're best friends also! I haven't seen him in years!" Hinata said holding on to Naruto.
"Hinata! We should be going it's running late! Neji and I are going now it's about midnight. See you guys some other time." tenten said waving bye. "Midnight!" Hinata screeched. "You guys need a ride home?" Itachi offered.
"I got a ride see you later hinata." Naruto said waving good bye. Itachi said, "Guess it's just you and me." Hinata felt uneasy all of a sudden. " Come on hinata-chan let's go." Itachi said. He put his hands around her shoulders guiding her to his car. "Umm..Alright." She said unable to say anything else.
Home..
He had just came home from visiting Sakura and it was 10pm. He was waiting for his soon-to-be wife to come home normally she arrives at ten but why was she late?
2 hours later
The door opened, "Hey!" "Where have you been!" Sasuke said worried and upset. "I just lost track of time Sasuke-kun. I'm truly sorry and also I met your brother there!" "My brother? What did he say?" Sasuke said narrowing his eyes.
"Nothing, he just dropped me home. He said that I was a good wife for you but, said there is possibly someone better for you and me." Hinata said confused.
"Stupid brother has no idea what he is talking about. You're the only one for me." sasuke said kissing her forehead. Hinata blushed and said, "Oh, Sasuke-kun."
Next Day
"this is your favorite spot isn't it?" Sakura said peering at Naruto. Naruto turned and said, "Sakura-chan, what are you doing here?" sakura shrugged, "Nothing really just walking and saw you here. So, how was the club yesterday did I miss anything?"
"Not really." Naruto said. "Sasuke came over my house yesterday." sakura revealed. "really?" Naruto asked. "Yea, he just wanted to talk. He's getting a little upset that you are hanging out with his wife-to-be more than he is." sakura said.
"She lives with him. I'm sure they spend more time together." Naruto said. "Actually, lately they haven't even had meals together. Maybe you should try to back off. I mean they are married do you really want to get on Sasuke's bad side?" sakura suggested.
"No, I don't want to get on his bad side. It's true they are the ones getting married but, I just can't stay away." Naruto said. "What are you saying?" sakura said gazing at him.
Naruto looked at the river and said, "I think I might like her." "You think? Are you or are you not in love with hinata hyuuga?" sakura questioned. The blonde looked into her jade eyes and said, "Truthfully, I don't know anymore but, I know one thing for sure..I care about her and will do anything to protect her and her happiness."
Sakura put her hair and said, "You are still clueless as you were back then aren't you?" Naruto said, "Clueless about what?" "Never mind." sakura said.
Sasuke & Hinata
"All the inviations are sent but, since we don't have anymore invitation I was wondering can we invite Naruto?" Hinata asked. "No." Sasuke flatly said.
"What do you mean we can't invite him!?" Hinata angrily said, while glaring at him. Sasuke sighed, "We shouldn't invite him because we are no longer best friends." "who cares! I still want him there at our wedding! He is my best friend!" "Are you sure he's just your best friend?" Sasuke yelled and glared right back at her.
Preview for Chapter Eight-
"what do you mean?" Hinata said.
"I'm talking about who have you been hanging out for the past three weeks! You have spent more time with him than me and I live with you!" Sasuke yelled.
"You think I don't love you anymore is that it?" Hinata said angrily.
"No, I know you still have feelings for that dobe. I won't have him steal you away from me!" Sasuke said defiantly.
"did you have another fight with her again?" Sakura sighed.
"Yes, we had another fight." Sasuke answered.
"What was it about this time?" Sakura asked.
"Nothing important but, I'm glad you're here so I can talk to someone."
"I'll always be there for you." Sakura said smiling.
