Chapter 5: Invite

Sasuke's party past faster then she would have liked, now she stood in front of her ballet students watching them do the Arabesques she had showed them how to do a week before the party.

She watched closely, they had obviously been practicing, some were very close to getting it, others were struggling but still good.

There was a light knock on the door frame that brought Sakura's attention away from her students. "Time for a five minute break lady's that was beautiful." She said as she walked to were Sasuke stood in the doorway.

"A bunch of us are going to go ice skating, we were wondering if you would like to come?"

"I would love to..." She caught a glance from Itachi, who she had not seen until just then. "It sounds like fun, class is almost done so..."

"We will wait for you." Itachi said coldly looking at the little girls drinking their water while some others stretched.

Sakura was surprised as was Sasuke, but he held his tongue. "Thank you!" Sakura said turning back to her students. "Okay, lets finish up."

They all quickly lined up and began their Arabesques'.

-With Sasuke-

He watched Sakura teach her girls and he couldn't help but smile on the inside...she seemed happy.

But he knew she was most likely just acting, the death of her parents was coming up in almost a week and he knew she was most likely dieing inside.

Itachi had suggested that they do something fun, 'invite everybody' is what he said...it hit Sasuke then, that Itachi just wanted to see Sakura, he had been acting funny sense his birthday party, but no one knew why.

'Does he like-like Sakura?' Sasuke thought to himself. 'No way, this is Itachi I'm talking about here...he doesn't like anybody, he's not that human!' Sasuke secretly watched Itachi out of the corner of his eye, Itachi seemed to be watching Sakura very closely, his dark eyes held some unknown emotion...'Oh my god, no way!'

-With Itachi-

She helped the girls with their stances, she wore cranberry tights, a black leotard and black ballet slippers. She smiled so kindly, she praised them so graciously, she movements were slow and graceful, her hair was in a tight braid, her emerald orbs shown her approval for her students.

Itachi was to tied up in Sakura's movements and her very being, that he didn't notice how closely Sasuke was watching him.

-With Sakura-

Sakura could feel the eyes of both Sasuke and Itachi on her as she moved.

It was a little annoying but she would live...A few minutes later she dismissed her students and excused herself to the bathroom to change out of her ballet uniform and into her tight black jeans, light brown boots that ended below her knee's, and a tight matching light brown sweater.

She left the bathroom and saw Sasuke watching Itachi, who's eyes were glued to the ground.

"Is everything okay?" She asked tentatively feeling very much like Hinata.

-With Itachi-

Itachi's eyes snapped up to connect with slightly wide, cautious, emerald orbs.

'Wow,' Itachi though. 'She looks great!' Itachi mentally slapped himself, he couldn't get attached to anyone...ever... 'But she looks great, her bubble-gum pink hair, her large innocent emerald eyes, her small waist, her unbelievably beautiful brea-'

"Itachi, lets go!" Shouted Sasuke as he was slowly dragging Sakura out of the building by her delicate little wrist, her eyes on Itachi, circuitous burning in they're depths.

He shook his head to clear it and followed out of the studio to his black Camero.

He climbed into the driver side and watched as Sasuke climbed in the back, as Sakura quickly locked up her studio and climbed into the passenger side.

He started the engine and could see Sakura out of the corner of his eye, she had her seat belt on and was looking back at Sasuke smiling.

Her smile was enchanting, the way she had maneuvered herself in her seat provided him with an amazing view of her cleavage.

"Are we going some time today?" Sasuke some what yelled, Sakura giggled and sat strait up looking out the windshield.

Itachi ignored him and drove down the road, making his way to the ice skating rink.

"Can I mess with your radio?" Sakura asked glancing over at Itachi.

He nodded once, facial expression never changing.

Sakura smiled and switched through the local stations.

After a moment she settled on 'Hot' by 'Avril Lavigne' and started singing to it, Itachi watched her out of the corner of his eye, while keeping the other eye on the road...a trick he learned when Sasuke was a baby and he was baby sitting...He pulled into the parking lot and cut the engine, the music went off with the engine.

"Hey!" Sakura squeaked in annoyance.

"Would you like to skate or not?" He asked as he climbed out of the car.

Sakura's face lit up and jumped out of the car and ran into the building giggling with the Uchiha's following.

"This is going to be interesting." Sasuke said with a smirk as he followed after Itachi.
