Chapter three- Confusion on the mind ?

"Funny isn't it?" "What is?"

"The way the human mind works" Sasuke smirked to himself while browsing through a physcology section of the library.

"Works in patterns right?" I replied scribbling down some notes on the heart.
"So they say, what do you think about the human mind Sakura?"He said while taking a book from its place throwing it to one hand to another than walking over to the table were I was sat and placed himself on it.

"I'd like to believe that it didn't work in patterns, and what we thought was unique and random. It would make it much more fun if you ask me.." I rambled on thinking of the possibilities you could do with such a pure random mind instead of just working in the patterns you set for yourself self-conciously.

I looked at Sasuke, he was sat on the wooden table with his feet on the chair on my right side he was flicking through a red leathered book that had golden print on it that said " The human mind", I looked at his features, his structure and his body language. It was like he was posing for a picture he looked like he'd be professional airbrushed on a computer to make the model look better than they were in real life, but this was real life and Sasuke wasn't a model.
He pitied models.

"Sakura why are you looking at me with such a confused look?" He asked still having his eyes on the book before him, I shook my head out of my daydream "No reason"

"I'm curious.. tell me?"

"Well aren't you used to people staring at you?"

"Hn, I don't really acknowledge the ones that I don't care for ..." I interrupted him "Y-you care for me?" He gave me a glared than a smirk "Don't ask such a stupid question, of course I care for you."

"You don't show it"

"Anyway, and normally Naruto tells me a girls drooling over me so whats the point, But I know you're however not drooling over me, and I hope you're not admiring me with such a confused face or I'll take it as an insult." He looked at me fully in the eyes, I had to look away from his intense look.

"It's just, how do you do it?"

"How do I do what?"

"You know look so good at all times?"

"You think I look good?" I sighed at him "You know what I mean Sasuke."He chuckled lowly at me

" I don't try to look good, neither am I saying I do look good. Its just that a pattern is already set in a girls mind, and somehow 'Dark, tall and charming' represents me .. or thats what they think of me to be." He said looking back down to the book.

"Really?"

"No I just made that up.."

"Really?" I asked looking at him for a difference in his face to see if there was a note of a lie.., yet nothing.

"What?"

"Did you make that up?"

"Yes"

"But.."

"I don't know everything in the world Sakura, and I won't lie just to make me look good. I'm not my father." He said with a sour twist in his face.

"But..." I was stumped how did he do that?

"Why the confused face now?" He said closing the book and looking at me in the eyes again causing me to look everywhere but his eyes.

"You made it sound so believable, how did you do that?"

"First of all you always think I know everything, so that's probably one of the reasons why. Second I'm a fabulous liar." He smirked "I bet I could find your tell"

"Maybe, but you wasn't looking at me when I was lying.. you thought I was lying when I was telling the truth."

"Errr...." I said and banging my head on the table, slightly confused, Sasuke just chuckled at me and than patted my pink shoulder lengthed hair.
I took my head off the table and closed my eyes and breathed heavily out, I opened them and Sasuke's eyes were still watching my movements, I blushed at his stare.
"Well erm, I don't think I should study so much today." I said picking up my backpack and standing up, even when sasuke was sat on table and I was stood up he still seemed taller than me.

"Sorry if I disturbed your contrecation." He apologised while looking down at the floor.

"No its not your fault, I don't think I would of done much anyway, you coming?" I asked and he stood up next to me, my head came up just below his shoulders. Everyone loved to tease me about my height and as I looked up at him now I could see he was tempted to use this as his amusement for now.

"Go on say your worse about my height than.." I said rolling my eyes and starting to walk away from him, it only took him a few steps to be walking by my side and he wrapped his arm around my shoulders "I wasn't going to say anything about it actually, but now you mention it..." I was ready for it, what was he going to say this time? Sasuke's wasn't as predictable as Naruto was "I think your height is a cute size." he said looking straight away, I looked at him a little confused.

"Do you always have to have that confused look everytime I talk to you Sakura?" "Yes cause you say the most weirdest things to me."

"So complimenting you is weird, what would be insulting you? Though I'd never do such a thing." He said and looked down at me squeezing my shoulder with the arm he had wrapped around them.

I sighed, and looked down at the floor watching our footsteps.

"SASSUKEEE, SAKURRAAA" that took my eyes off the floor I looked straight ahead to see the bright haired boy infront of us. He looked at us with his brilliant smile,
his eyes glistening in the sun happily.

"I reckon.." Sasuke started than chuckled "You reckon what?"
"I reckon, Naruto.." I looked up at him again confused "Do you want to carry on that sentence."

"I'm just wondering how to word it out without sounding it as an insult" I give him a look " Naruto isn't human" I was about to shout at him for such a statement but he put his finger to my lips "Hear me out Sakura, I'm saying that because his mind is too'random' shall we say for any pattern, am I right?"
He was right, how could any pattern compared to what Naruto's mind was capable of? I giggled at it.

We finally reached Naruto, and he was still smiling brilliantly.
"Oooh, whats going on here than." He winked at me and I blushed.

"Shut up dobe" Sasuke said with his arm still around me

"Fair enough, if you want to keep it secret, its safe with me" He poked himself hard in the chest. "But can you take your hands off my Sakura" He had a sudden glare In his face and a growl in his voice.

"Your Sakura?" He asked with a touch of humour in his voice.

What the hell was happening?
When did I become anyone's?
I'm still me aren't I? Single as can be? Free as a bird?
