My Cherry Blossom

Chapter 18: I miss you so much..

...

Recap:

" Sai-kun? What are you doing here?" she asked, with a mixture of shocked, happiness and depressed.

End of recap.

Sai smiled at his best friend and hugged her tightly, as if afraid she'll ran away. He snuggled closer, ignoring all the stares from his newly found fanclub and his newly found enemies.

" I came for you." he whispered loud enough for Sakura and Sasuke. Unknowingly, Sasuke growled and glared at the boy. Sakura stared at him weirdly as if he had grown two heads.

" Who are you and what had you done to artsy boy!" she asked... well, demand the boy with her stern face. The boy pouted while blinking his eyes. If you look closely, you could see a tint of pink on his face.

' Kyaaaah! I don't really know what had happen to him but he looked sooooo kawaiiii!" she squealed inwardly. The boy smirked as if knowing what the girl was thinking.

" You're mean, you know that?" he asked with an arrogant smirk as he ruffeled (sp?) her hair with his fist. He chuckled slightly as the girl protest but what caught his attention was the boy beside Sakura. He looked like he wanted to murder him right at the spot. He narrowed his black eyes at him as he glared at him. Suddenly realization kick into him. The chicken butt boy liked his girl! Wait.. his? Hmm.. he liked the sound of that. She was his and always will. He saw her first therefore she is his and only his! He smirked at the raven haired boy as he peck her lips lightly, ignoring the burning glares from the boy and all the male students in the class. Sakura raised her eyebrows at her crush's weird behaviour. Him pecking her lips was common and she wouldn't care less. She had already lost her first kiss to him so.. it doesn't really matter, right?

" What was that for, artsy boy?" she asked with a microscopic blush. Eventhough he always peck her lips, she couldn't help but blush when his soft lips were pressed agaisnt her cherry lips. Sai smiled at her lazily and hugged her... again. He rested his head at the crook of her neck as she played with his silky black hair. Unknown to her, Sasuke was watching her evry move and glared at her long time childhood friend.

' Who does this bastard thinks he is, touching my girl!' he thought furiously as he continued to glare holes at him. Sasuke calmed himself down for the whole period when he saw him touching her everywhere as if she's a china doll.

" I miss you so much Sai-kun." she whispered and let a happy smile slid her face. Sai smiled at her gently and kissed her hair.

" I miss you too, Ugly."

Time skip~ Lunch time.

As usual, Sakura was crowded by a bunch of boys whom asked her to go out with one of them. Being taught with well manner, she politely refuse and walked towards the cherry blossom tree. Earlier, she had told Sai that they were gonna eat lunch under the tree and will see him later since she don't have most of his class. Suddenly, she felt a hand wrapped from behind her but she ignored it since it's like a daily routine for the boy to hug her and walked with her towards their lunch spot.

" Hey, blossom." Haruse greeted, hands still on her petite waist. Sakura smiled at him a little and continued on walking.

" Morning to you to, Haru-kun!" she chirped energeticly. She could feel the smirked on his face and she resisted the urge to roll her eyes.

" Ugh.. seriously. No matter how many times you ask, I will not be your girlfriend!" she said quickly. She heard a deep chuckle from behind her and pouted at him.

" But you called me 'Haru-kun', so I must be a little special, right?" he asked her, eyes filled with hopeful. She giggled and wiggled out of his grasp. She heard him protest but she ignored it and walked ahead of him, totally ignnoring his statement. At last, after a few minutes of torture, they arrived at their destination and went to sit down. Haruse, being a sly boy, sat first and yanked her arms so that she'll fall right on his lap. Sakura rolled her eyes when she felt him nuzzling her hair. She saw all her girl friends in the exact same positions with Saki, Ren and Keiji respectively. Out of nowhere, she saw the boys looking irritated as hell. Neji was glaring and twitching at Ren since he was nuzzling at Ten Ten's neck while Shikamaru muttered something about troublesome Ino and annoying fanboy. Naruto? Naruto growled lowly as he saw Keiji playing with Hinata's hair. Sasuke looked like he wanted to murder someone.

" HEY YOU! STAY AWAY FROM HINATA-CHAN OR I'LL KILL YOU" Naruto shouted and pointed his fingers at the said boy. Keiji smirked and continued on playing with her silky midnight coloured hair.

" Whatever blondie. I don't listen to empty threats like that." he replied smugly. Sakura message her temples when they both started to shout at each other. The others were quiet, enjoying the peace. Suddenly, they heard a loud squealing at the far end of the cherry blossom tree. There stood an irritated looking Haruse with a few of Sasuke's fangirls crowding him.

" KYAAH! YOU LOOKED A LOT LIKE SASUKE-KUN! ARE YOU HIS TWIN OR SOMETHING?!"

" HEY, SEXY! WANT TO HAVE A GREAT TIME OF YOUR LIFE?"

" OH GOD! PLEASE MARRY ME, SAI-KUN!~"

Sakura giggled at her friend's misfortune and looked at Sasuke sympatically (Sp?). He arched his eyebrows when he caught her giving that look.

" Hn, what?" he asked.. more like ordered. Sakura rolled her eyes at his bossy attitude.

" Nothing just feeling a little bad about you since Sai had manage to attract some of your fangirls. I'm sorry on his behalf for his sexyness." she joked as she got a few snickered from the others. Sasuke scowled at her.

" Don't be. He can have all my fangirls. But, I don't know that you think Sai is sexy." he replied and spat the boy's name like it could kill. Sakura blushed at his statement.

" I-I'm just j-jokking." she stuttered out. Ino gave her a sly looked and spoke,

" You're stuttering. So this means that you think that Sai's sexy! Although I admit he's sexy but my love for lazy ass will never change!" she said but stopped at once when she realised what she had just said. She blushed ten shades of red while Shikamaru smirked at the flushed Ino.

" Er.. Uh.. what I mean is.. -insert fake cough- my love for uh.. Kabuto will never change! Right! Kabuto! " she exclaimed, not noticing the frown on Shikamaru and Saki's face.

" Kabuto? You mean that asshole from STAR Private High? The one that is obsessed with you? Your arranged fiance?" Shikamaru asked calmly althought his eyes told the exact opposite.

" The four eyed dude whom is obsessed with the pedophile sensei? The one that always hang out with the so called ' Amazing four'?" this time Saki asked her while twitching like there's no tomorrow. Ino nodded hesitantly and stared at Sakura. Her face clearly says Help- me- or- else- you're-following- me - to - shopping- for - 6 - hours. Sakura rolled her eyes and decided to help her friend in need.

" Alright you two. Stop being a jealous kid. Look! I want you guys to meet my childhood friend Sai!" she exclaimed as she saw him walking towards them. Everyone stared at him with a warm smile except for the boys.

" Hey, the names Sai Takiyama. Nice to meet you."

I think I'm gonna stop there! Hope you guys liked it! Please review!
