Chapter Six:

It seemed like he didn't know how to approach the subject, so he got straight to the point. "I know who you are," Sasuke whispered, his eyes looking around in a suspicious type of way.

"W-what?" I asked him.

"I know," Sasuke replied in a firm voice. Oh, he would be so unbelievably hot right now, if it weren't for the given circumstances.

"Well, how do you know? I don't even know!" I exclaimed in a hushed voice. I understood exactly what Sasuke meant... oh, well, I knew he wasn't talking about knowing my name and stuff like that. The problem was, I didn't know how he could know who I was when I didn't even know.

He leaned in closer, our lips only centimeters apart. - Déjà vu. - Then he whispered so softly his words were barley audible, "I'll explain better at my apartment."

My lips went pale as they quivered in shock. My eyes grew wide in excitement. My breaths grew uneven as I gasped for air. My thoughts were, did he just invite me to his home? Is he just some player? Or is he telling the truth? Will he help me find myself?

We walked in silence the whole way to his apartment. I didn't know what to say, and he said he would talk when we got there.

So when we arrived, Sasuke told me to make myself comfortable. I smiled, wondering if it was possible to do that at that point. He got two glass cups from a cherry-wood cabinet and asked, "What do you want to drink? I have lemonade, water, soda-"

"I'm not thirsty," I interrupted him.

"Okay," he said, putting one glass back on its shelf. Then he filled his with water.

"Sasuke, did you mean it?" I solicited when the boy sat in front of me.

"Hm, yes. Why would I lie? I mean, about something so serious like that."

I stated quickly after he said that, waving my hands, "Oh, I didn't mean to offend you! Er, did I offend you? Please tell me I didn't offend you!"

Sasuke smirked. "Calm down, and don't worry, you didn't offend me." Then after a moment or so, after I'd completely calmed myself, he said, "So, should we get down to business?"

He made it sound like I was someone he'd picked up off the street that was being payed by him to...do things. But I knew better than that, so I answered, "Yeah." I sounded relaxed and absolutely restrained, but really, inside, my veins flowed with anticipation. Well, that and blood. I was finally going to find out what that man from a couple of years ago was going on about!

"Remember when you shut yourself away from everyone and lived in your own little world created by you? Remember when you left that world which consisted only of you? Do you remember when you redeemed all of your friends, and your mind told you everything would be fine, but your heart said otherwise?" That was how he began. All of his question were rhetorical, not meant to be answered. Sasuke already knew the answers anyway. That's what I thought anyway, because he asked them without pausing. But then he did pause to give me, I suppose, time to take in his words.

Oh, stupid me, though. I was such an idiot, even though I was as old as seventeen. I told Sasuke, "Woah, woah, slow down! Um, yes, yes, and what? How do you know all this about me?" Then, as I asked that question, a sudden realization crossed over my mind. "Are you a stalker?!" I yelled in question, standing to my feet. I know, I know, that was a thoughtless and foolish thing to say, but that's who I was back then.

"How could I be?" asked Sasuke, staring up at me from the floor. Appearing to look me over, he also added, "But if I were, hypothetically speaking, why would I stalk someone with your looks?"

Okay, now he's calling me ugly?! I thought, very displeased and quite appalled.

Suddenly realizing his mistake, Sasuke corrected himself. "What I meant was...I meant..." Well, he tried to correct himself.

I sat back down on the floor, in just the same place as before. "How do you know all that about me?" I repeated softly.

Sasuke gazed down at the wooden floor, his eyelids closed tightly. And then after, a few moments, he replied, "It was me."

A/N: He-ey, I think this chapter is longer than any of the other ones I've written for this story so far. I could make it longer, but I would just feel like I was babbling. So, this is my chapter for June fourth. I wrote it so early in the morning because I will probably sleep until five or six in the evening. Um, thanks and enjoy!
