Chapter Four: Problem

School was a bore there was nothing that could beat seeing Karin and Toshiro's face. I pull out his photo that he had handed me I had it set in my wallet with his name, year, age, and grade.

'I was going to give it to grandma with the flowers but I want you to remember me. The sweet kind lady that had looked over at me and didn't see a nothing,' that's what he had wrote. I flip over the picture again and smile.

"Aww… Who's that?"

I turn around and see my blonde friend and smile, "Hey Ino it's a little boy that I met today he was a brat but I talked to him and was really kind. He turned out to be a really nice shy kid. After I saved him from trouble with his mom and gave him advice and candy. He gave me this picture to remember him by."

"Really you must have been really nice to him."

I turn back to her and give her my best smile (turning watts is what they call that smile); "I was even though he kicked me that had given me a bruise."

Behind me was Sasuke and he looked worried when he notice I was looking his way he smirked. Guess he really doesn't remember about me being his friend.

"Is that why you skipped the beginning of the school day?"

"No I had to bring Hinata to the hospital because of Karin," when I say Karin's name I added acid to my voice. Letting him know my hatred towards her and that I may know about them.

Again I catch him off guard from how angry and troubled I sound his eyes soft but fast they harden and he glues on his smirk on his face, "So you were the one that got Karin scared and beaten a little."

I shrug, "If I did why would I admit it, but who knows maybe she deserved it. Whoever did it I'll shake their hand."

He just smiles again which he turned into his signature smirk that said 'trouble is coming' and he shrugs, "Just don't want anyone messing up her face."

I laugh and remember when I was a kid and our moms got together she started to cause trouble so I had hurt her face bad enough that she had to be in the hospital because she told my mom what her mom had called her and said it was true I took my toy Barbie car to her face as hard as I could.

Before then though I think that it was already messed up before. I did that when I was ten. We were somewhat friends before we found out about being half-sisters.

I sigh, "Well it was messed up before today someone did a favor for trying to set it straight." That made about everyone in the room laugh because Karin pissed off everyone in the school for some reason.

Class ended with me getting high fives. I and the girls were laughing until the boys were in view and I laugh.

Ino has a thing for Shikamaru 'Sleeper Boy'. Tenten has a thing for Neji 'the Ice Cube'. Hinata has a thing for Naruto 'Endless Abyss'. Even though Sasuke wouldn't admit it he is 'Emo Prince.'

I'm scene or something with my friends are the only ones in our school and where girls. Today before I have to stop by Itachi's house and my after school job at six. They run off to get a better look at them as they do so I watch them to see they are watching an individual girl.

I spend after school setting books back on selves in the library.

"Excuse me is there a listening section?"

"Yes its right over there," I turn around enough to point at the section where the teachers keep the CD's and movies that they use in class. It turn to the person to see that Sasuke is right behind.

"Hey nerd bird."

Ugh just my luck. "Hey Emo Prince what do you want?"

He just smirks at me, "Can't I say hi and see what you're doing alone here."

"Not when your being a jerk to see what I'm doing," I mock his words and try to walk past.

To get blocked, "Oh sorry. Let me start over," I start to walk away finally passing him to have him grab my arm and pulled his way.

When we were kids I always thought of kissing him (hell even with him like this I still daydream about it), but never like this. The problem is both of us didn't try to pull away. We stayed like that he pulled me tighter against him and I threw my arms around his neck.

I hear the librarian coming and I snapped back to reality. I finally break away from him and whatever this feeling is I still have for him. I steel up on him waiting for the librarian out of hearing shot and push him into the shelf behind him.

"Understand this this never happened."

He frowns, "Why do you say that when you seemed to enjoyed that?"

I try to lie even when my face is flushed, "No I didn't," I close my eyes and play with my braid trying to get the images out of my head. W

hen I open them the Sasuke has his face inches from mine, 'You look familiar do I know you from earlier time?"

Even though it's been 6 years since he saw the old me I always hoped he knew who I was.

"Sorry only know you from middle and high school."

"No like know you as a kid."

I shrug, "Maybe you are seeing things I have to go to work."

I ran off with him calling after me like in a drama.
