Previously

She was right it was already 12:00, and tomorrow we had a big day ahead of us considering we're at Ino's place. She probably has a whole day already planned for us.

"Ok~ lets talk about this tomorrow," I said as I went to sleep on the blanket and pillow I was provided with. Next to me on my right was Sasuke, Ino somehow got him to sleep next to me. I laid down and thought about the things that happened today. And as I did that I blushed heavily remembering the bet that Ino made me do. Today was seriously a long day… and tomorrow will be an even longer day. I just know it…

Chapter 11

Xx Sasuke's P.O.V xX

I opened my eyes when I felt something warm on top of me move, as I smelt the faint sent of cherry blossoms in the air. As I looked to my right, I see Sakura not sleeping on her side, but beside me with her head on my chest. Seeing this made me want to blush knowing that we were so close. I was soon lost in thought when I saw her beautiful porcelain face sleeping peacefully on my chest, with a carefree expression on it. I stroked her soft vibrant hair that was lying messily yet gracefully on my abdomen. As I tried to move her back without waking her, she just snuggled closer. I could feel a blush creeping up my neck as I hear a low grumble of someone waking up, and I try to pry Sakura off me panicking.

"Should I pretend I didn't see anything?" I heard someone say behind me. I turned around to face a smirking Naruto. I widened my eyes knowing that this was going to become a HUGE problem.

What was I going to do if Naruto opens that big trap of his? "If you dare say anything, I may tell Hinata that you like her AND I will make sure that you will never be able to make babies anymore AND you will no longer be male," I growled barely audible.

"Eep!" he ran away squeaking and holding his private spot afraid of what might happen to it… I sweat dropped at his reaction, but I was still glad that he wasn't going to tell anyone and he understood the consequences of betraying me. Slowly but surely everyone was starting to wake up… including Sakura.

Xx Sakura's P.O.V xX

I woke up from my comfortable sleep, feeling myself lying on something warm. I opened my eyes to stare into two beautiful onyx eyes, sparkling in the morning sunlight. Still groggy from my sleep, it takes me a while to realize that those stoic eyes and silky, raven hair belongs to an indifferent Sasuke. I can't tell what he is feeling because of his expressionless face. I suddenly realize what an intimate position we are in, and reluctantly jerk away from my relaxing position. I feel myself blush a deep crimson red, and the awkward silence takes over. I look at Sasuke, and I see an emotion flash across his perfect features. Was it…disappointment? What could he possibly be disappointed about?

I realize that I had let the uncomfortable silence drag on too long. "I'm going to get ready for today," I say, excusing myself to the bathroom. As I change into my, I calm my heart that is beating at a hundred miles per hour. I comb my hair, trying to slow my uneven breathing. My attempt is unsuccessful as the image of Sasuke when I woke up flashes into my mind. I feel heat creeping up my neck as a blush, once again, makes its way up to my cheeks. I splash my face with cold water to snap myself out of it, and calmly walk out. My feet take me to the table where all my friends were gathered, chomping away at their breakfast.

"You're late!" Naruto shouts as he gleefully stuffs meat into his mouth.

"The heroine always arrives last," I smirk, acting as if nothing happened ten minutes ago.

"Whatever. Just hurry up. We are going out in twenty minutes," Ino snapped with a devious look that spelled trouble. Hearing this made me groan with frustration. Going out with Ino meant that it would be a LONG day.

"Where are we going? " Hinata asked curious.

"Mall," Ino and I said at the same time, the only difference was our tone. Ino said it excitedly and I said it in a monotone voice banging my head on the dinning table loudly.

"Are you ok?!" Naruto asked with his eyes wide along with the rest except for Ino who was examining her nails carelessly and shaking her head at my antics.

"Don't be like that Saki it's just the mall," Ino said.

"I KNOW it's JUST the mall. But we're going with YOU!" I replied tiredly at her with puppy dog eyes. "Can I just not go," I begged.

"Nope lets go I'm dragging you."

With that we were headed to the mall… the worst place to be with Ino.

Xx Sasuke's P.O.V xX

Sakura suddenly banged her head on the table hard. When she lifted her head, you could see the bruise that might form on her forehead. It seems as if she really was desperate to not go. But I really didn't see the problem, even if I didn't like crowded places the mall was ok. But when we got there, that was when I truly found out the reason as to why she didn't want to come.

It's been an hour and we've been following Ino everywhere as she looked for clothes for her and the girls. She practically forced a skirt upon Sakura, dragging her to the changing room and putting the outfit on her. Even though she looked good in it… no that's an understatement she looked hot, I still felt bad for her. It was a see through blouse with lace crisscrossing in the back showing the strap of her bra, and a red and black short skirt. I was sure that I was blushing no matter how hard I hope I wasn't.

After that we finally got out of the store with about ten bags, most of them… ALL of them belonging to Ino. We then went to some more stores some for us after Ino finally agreed. Now we were heading to the cafeteria to get something to eat or drink.

"So where should we go next?" Ino asked enthusiastically.

"Home," Shikamaru groaned.

"Oh don't be like that. I was thinking we could buy some swim wear since we're going to swim today."

"Swim?!" Naruto asked enthusiastically jumping up from his chair.

"Yeah, sorry I forgot to tell you guys," she apologized innocently.

Sakura was sitting next to me not amused at all at the situation. "So this is why you didn't want to come," I whispered trying to start a conversation with her.

"Yeah… it's ALWAYS like this," she sighed as she put her head on my shoulder closing her eyes.

"Is that so… where do you want to go? I could go with you, I don't want to be here either."

"You'd really want to come with me?" she asked facing me with a large grin plastered on her face.

"Mhmm, want to go somewhere together?"

"Where?"

"Anywhere."

"Ok then can we just walk around to see what stores we want to go?"

"Why not." With that we got up and left quietly while they were discussing plans for swimming.

It was cool and relaxing to finally be able to spend some time alone. As we walked, we walked past a cute shop and I decided to drag Sakura in with me.

"Wahh! Sasuke, where are we going?" Sakura asked shocked.

"That store." Once in, I looked around with a confused Sakura.

"Are you looking for something for a special someone?" She asked in a teasing voice. I was a little hurt that she thought I had someone but I didn't show it.

"Aa," I said bluntly.

"Hmm, so who's the lucky lady?" she asked slightly amused from what I can tell.

"You," I whispered barely audible, but loud enough for her to hear. When I saw her expression, I smirked.

"You," he said. Even though he said it really softly I still caught it and I couldn't help but blush at what he said. I was completely stunned with his words and I knew that if I talked, I would stumble with my words looking like an idiot. I caught his smirking face when I looked up, and I felt disappointment. I knew I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up.

"Please stop teasing me," I said as I stopped in my tracks. "Because I really like you." I don't know what made me say that, but I couldn't stop it from coming out of my mouth.

My eyes blinked wide open before I realized what I had said.

"Saku-" Sasuke started, but I wouldn't stay to hear it. I dashed away before Sasuke could finish his thoughts. Running blindly, I ran into the gang before I knew it.

"Saks, what's wrong?" I heard Naruto ask. I didn't want to look up knowing that I had tears that were starting to well up.

"Ah I'm fine I just happened to have bad luck and keep running into things," I lied as I wiped away the tears. Sasuke came as I put on my poker face, without knowing he was there I turned around with fake enthusiasm banging my head into his hard, well-built chest.

"…You do have bad luck Saks, you should slow down," Naruto said as he laughed his head off.

Turning around once again to face Naruto, I glared with what Ino calls 'dark aura' surrounding me getting ready to jump like a cat in wait for its prey. "Na-rruto!" I yelled as I started chasing him around. It's as if he knew that I was about to kill somebody.

Xx Sasuke's P.O.V xX

What the hell?! S-she fuckin likes me?! I can't believe a cute, adora- wait I'm loosing track here- likes me! Well I know I'm considered as hot in the school but… Sakura she's just so gfuvag;vcutejhad;hjadorableahvbrs;oha. Huh huh huh. Gahhh.

Who the hell are you?

Your inner dumb ass!

…

In other words you.

I noticed but either way Sakura doesn't like you.

Yeah she does! Didn't you hear her just now?

Grr… Whatever your annoying just leave!

With that I started to chase after Sakura confused and worried she might misunderstand. When I reached her I saw her with the othersbut it was obvious that she was not fine. I walked up to her just in time for her to turn around with obvious fake enthusiasm and run into my chest. After that Naruto seemed to have said something to aggravate Sakura causing her to chase the poor guy. I stood there at a lost as to what to do. All I knew was I had to talk to her and make things right and for her to know that I like her too.

Soon we were back at Ino's house and they were getting prepared to swim. I was already in my swim wear, so I sat on the couch pondering as to what to do and say to Sakura when I get to be alone with her. I was utterly terrified and confused as to what to do. I've never really ever faced a situation like this before. I mean sure I've had girls coming up to me and confess and me rejecting them but I've never actually rejected a girl I had even the slightest feelings for since I never actually liked anybody before. What's worse is that I didn't really reject her… well maybe it seemed like I was going to, to her but it was just some miscommunication. I was so shocked that I didn't know what to say! What the fuck am I supposed to do now? It's pretty obvious that the pink-headed girl is trying to avoid me but I really do want to fix it.

Before I was able to continue my silent rant there was a loud bang and down come the idiots with the girls following closely behind yelling.

"You god damn perverts!" I heard Ino yell as she got hold of a rare Shikamaru that seemed to be wide-awake.

"It was an accident we swear!" Shikamaru said with fright evident in his usually lazy eyes.

Before anyone else started to yell I decided to butt in so I wouldn't have to hear them rant. "What the hell is going on?"

"Those three idiots desided that it would be fun to spy on us as we were changing!" Tenten said glaring at me. I was completely confused as to why she would glare at me, I didn't even do anything especially spying on them. Like I mean who would want to. I'm not Shikamaru, Neji, and especially not Naruto.

"Look can you guys just shut up. I'm pretty sure that they did it by accident they must have not known you were not done changing and besides they probably didn't see anything now did they?"

"N-no but they s-still shouldn't have done that," Hinata whispered softly but still audible to the rest of us.

"Well there you have it. Lets just head to the pool it's going to get late soon."

With that we all headed out into the pool that was gleaming in the sunlight. With a sigh I started walking towards it only to be stopped by Naruto and the other two.

"What?"

"Thank you so much!" Naruto whispered with his hand clasped together. "We almost died there. I'm so glad that we have you."

"You're not welcome. Why in the world would you even want to spy at them. And Neji, isn't that your cousin? I never took you for the one that would actually be involved with incest," I smirked.

"It was a fucking accident. We didn't know they were not done. Girls take so god damn long. Why in the world is that?"

"Whatever but you guys owe me lots," with that I joined the girls who were starting to get inside the pool.

I sat on one of the pool chairs and stared out into the pool silently. That was when I saw Sakura's head pop out and also when I noticed how beautiful she looked. I really had to think of a plan fast before I loose her to someone else.
