So who are you? Who are you really? All you do is pretend. Play games. Act like someone your not. Whatever that boy Sasuke saw in you will always be a mystery, because you are lower than nothing. Lower. Than. Nothing. You will eventually become a monster. And you'll kill him. You will kill him, and wouldn't have expected anything because he "loves" you. "Leave me alone… go away…" It will never be alright. You will kill him, and all your so called love will just disappear. "I wouldn't kill him. I wouldn't. I wont!" Kill him, you will kill him… "GO AWAY!!"
Aimi awoke from her dream. She looked at the clock. 10:00 PM. What was that all about? She had never had one of those dreams before. Everything was fine between her and Sasuke. Kill him. The voice echoed in her head. She decided to ignore it. It had just been a dream after all.
But that uneasy feeling didn't go away. She went outside to take a walk. You know, to cool her off. While she was walking, absorbed in her bad thoughts, she failed to notice someone was following her.
A hand grabbed her arm. With all Aimi's bad thoughts, she couldn't help herself, so she turned around and punched the person right between the eyes. The person stumbled back. "Oh. Sorry Sasuke," she said dully. He gave her an odd look. "Are you… ok?" he asked. Aimi got her senses in order. "Better then ever." Whats wrong with me? she thought to herself. Sasuke looked at her with that odd look. "Aimi, what's wrong?" he asked, concerned. "Nothing. I'm FINE," she said between clenched teeth. Sasuke grabbed her arm again. "Come on, Aimi. There is something not right, I can tell," Sasuke said sternly. "I'm FINE. Get off me!!" Aimi yelled. Sasuke didn't let go, he stared at her in the eyes. "Aimi. What is wrong. This isn't like you," Sasuke said in a low voice. "Get off me, Sasuke," Aimi said, "I don't need you following me around like… how did you put it? Oh yes. A trained poodle," Aimi said. She knew she got on his nerves then. Sasuke glared at her, but didn't let go. "DARNIT SASUKE GET THE HECK OFF ME!!" Aimi yelled, kicking him. He didn't do anything. She sighed. "I didn't know I'd have to resort to this," she said. Sasuke looked at her. "What?" he asked. She grabbed his collar and kissed him. He loosened up and let go of her, relaxing. She pulled away and began running away from him.
Naturally, he chased her.
"Come ON, Aimi!" he yelled as he chased her. "No," Aimi yelled back. She screeched to a halt in front of her house. Sasuke took this as an opportunity to grab her again. "Grrrr. What?" Aimi asked through clenched teeth. "There's something wrong, and I'm not going away until you tell me what's wrong," Sasuke said. "I had a bad dream about you and it put me in a bad mood," she said, trying drag him into the house if he wouldn't go away. Sasuke didn't move. "Aimi, it was just a dream. I'm right here," he said. Aimi nodded. "Ok…" she sighed and headed back into her house.

The next day, Aimi headed to class in a normal mood. It had just been a dream, she didn't have to get all depressed, right?
Miko and Naruto met up with her. "Hey Aimi!" they said. "Hey," she replied. "So what were you doing last night?" Miko asked, giggling a bit. "Uh. Practicing. Why?" Aimi asked. Naruto and Miko looked at each other and started laughing a little. "What?" Aimi asked. "Oh, yeah. Yesterday you were practicing. Sure. Kiss, kiss," Naruto laughed. Aimi gaped. "What did you see last night?" Aimi asked, backing off a bit. "We saw you kiss Sasuke," Miko said. "Did you see what happened AFTERWARDS?" Aimi asked. "No, we were satisfied. What did you do?" Miko said. "I ran away from him. It was to get him to let go of me," Aimi said, speeding up her pace. "Didn't he do something like that to you to win a fight?" Naruto asked. "Yah. What goes around comes around," Aimi said, "Oh look we're here!" She sped up, happy to escape.

Aimi ran home to an empty house. Chika was still on that trip. Emi rubbed against Aimi's leg in a greeting. Akio ran in and mewed a hi. Aimi nodded and ran into the music room. She needed music right now. She didn't know why.
She looked through some songs she wrote and found a sad one she had written the night before. She sighed and put it down on the little thing on the piano that holds sheet music (shows you how much I know about this stuff). She began to play.
"Love of my life,
My soul mate,
You're my best friend.
Part of me like breathing…
Now half of me is left.
I don't know anything at all.
who am I to say you love me?
I don't know anything at all.
And who am I to say you need me?
Color me blue, I'm lost in you
don't know why I'm still waiting
Many moons have come and gone.
Don't know why I'm still searching
Don't know anything at all.
And who am I to say you love me?
I don't know anything at all.
And who am I to say you need me?
Hmmmm hmmmm
Uhhhh oh ahhh
Hooooh ahhh ohm ohhh…
Now you're a song I love to sing
Never thought it feels so free
Now I know whats meant to be,
And that's ok with me.
But who am I to say you love me?
And who am I to say you need me?
And who am I to say you love me?
Mmmmm hmmmm
I don't know anything at all.
And who am I to say you love me?
I don't know anything at all.
And who am I to say you need me?
I don't know anything at all.
I don't know anything at all.
I don't know anything at all.
I don't know anything…
At all."
Emi walked in. "That was beautiful." she purred. Aimi nodded and sighed. "Thanks." "Is it about Sas-" "Please don't." Emi sighed. "It is. What could be wrong?!" "Nothing!" "I see." Akio sauntered in. "Nice song, toots." he meowed. Aimi thanked him and sat there looking bored. "Emi, Akio, get to the point. I know you're gonna put your two-sense in anyway," Aimi said. "OK. You love him and its so cute, but quit being depressed," Emi said. "Thanks. It has nothing to do with that, its just that…"Aimi trailed off. She didn't know what to say next. "Everything is going well. You got the going good blues. Its when everything is going well but you feel like there's something wrong or something missing. Could it be that you are afraid of getting hurt?" Akio (yes Akio, not Emi!) mewed. Aimi stared at her cats. "How can your brains be so small, but be so wise?" Aimi asked. Emi sighed. "I told you before. You need SMARTS, not BRAINS." "Now I have to think. Yippie," Aimi sighed. The two cats rolled their eyes and padded away.
"I don't know anything at all," Aimi whispered, quoting her song. How true it felt right now. She didn't know anything at all. What did he feel like? What did SHE feel like? I hate being a teenager. You should. You again. Yes, me again. Be afraid, be very afraid. Too late. I can't believe I'm about to do this, but what should I do? YOU ARE BELIEVEING IN ME!! WOOOO!! Uh. Hello? Talk to him about it. Darn it. The one I didn't want to do… You knew what to do all along. You were just afraid of doing it. Thank you, oh fortune cookie of my brain.

KNOCK, KNOCK. Aimi knocked on Sasuke's door. What do I say? Ask him how he feels. But- Do it. Sasuke answered. "Oh, hi Aimi. You OK?" he said. "Yah, I'm fine. We need to talk." Aimi said quickly. Sasuke nodded and let her in. "I'm glad I wasn't the one to have to do it," he said. "What does that mean?" Aimi asked. "The voice inside my head has been BOTHERING ME-" he said bothering me kind of loud, as if he wanted the voice to hear- "about talking to you and I was hoping you'd bring it up because I don't know what to say," he finished. Aimi nodded. "I don't know what to say either," she said. "Come on, sit down," Sasuke said, motioning to the couch, where he was. Aimi sat down. They were quiet for about 5 minutes before Aimi blurted out, "How do you feel?" Sasuke looked over at her. "About what?" he asked, turning kind of red. "You know," Aimi said. "Yes, I do…" he trailed off. Aimi waited. "I… love… you," he said slowly, as if he was scared of every word, like it was going to turn on him or something. Aimi felt small. "I… love… you… too," she whispered, feeling really scared and lost. They both stopped looking at each other for a minute. They both just stared at the floor.
Sasuke, still not looking at her, said, "You should be getting home." Aimi nodded, got up, gave Sasuke a hug, and went out the door.
--SASUKE'S POV--
It was silent for a long time. They were both staring at the floor. They were feeling the same way about this. That was… good?
Sasuke decided to end this uncomfortableness between them. "You should be getting home," he said. No she doesn't. talk, talk. NO. He felt Aimi get up. She walked over and gave him a hug, which he was too afraid to hug back on. Then she walked out the door. STUPID! You shouldn't of let her go! I'm not a love sick fool. What are you saying? I am? Yes. Then you are saying that you are a love sick fool. You've still got time to stop her. No, I'm done with today. You are growing up. What are you, my mom? No, your mom is- Please don't make me think about that now. Not. Now. OK. Sorry. Yah, yah. Life goes on. If you're lucky. And that means…? Figure it out. You thought it.
