Chapter 18 – The Enemy
Sakura sat with Sasuke in his currently empty apartment with a lazy arm draped around her shoulders as they sat and watched some game show that was on repeat. Nothing could beat a lazy Sunday, Sakura thought. It was weird really, considering that if she'd seen herself a couple of days ago then she'd probably have laughed and wondered if she was still sane. Sakura wondered if she even was in her right state of mind but didn't bother checking, she was happy right now.
Sakura had only thought of the law a while after her rather questionable confession, but pushed it aside, the old ones could shove the law book up their asses for all she cared. It wasn't like they could catch her anyway, she'd managed to escape them for seven long years and she could do it for a lot longer.
Sasuke's arms squeezed her shoulders tighter against his body, pulling her from her thoughts and back to the crappy game show they were watching. She looked over to see his face and saw the relaxed expression he was carrying, it was kind of odd actually, she was so used to seeing that serious or amused or even pissed off look he always carried, even that intense gaze he always possessed had died down slightly, not entirely, but it had died down. He looked completely at ease and trouble free, she wondered if the saying, 'Hakuna Matata' applied here.
"Sasuke?" She asked. His head lazily turned to the side to meet her gaze, a lazy smirk covering his lips as he did so.
"When's Karin coming back?" She asked with her brow knitted slightly between her eyes, she didn't really want to ask, since it kind of ruined the moment but she didn't need another reason for the red headed sloth to hate her, after all she was still engaged to the man and that made her feel bad enough for going behind her back like this.
"Not until five, we have a while yet. Don't worry so much." He sighed, kissing her temple as he did so. Sakura just huffed and crossed her arms, she was not worried in the least.
"I'm not worried you teme, it just doesn't feel right to me." Sakura muttered with her frown still going strong. Sasuke rolled his eyes at Sakura, she'd been around Naruto too much.
"And why doesn't it feel right, may I ask?" With his eyebrow raised he looked down at a moody Sakura who was staring at the TV like her eyes were pinned there.
"I just never expected myself being the 'other woman' is all." She muttered again. Now Sasuke was frowning, she should know that he loved her more than Karin, heck, he didn't love Karin at all.
"Sakura, it's you that I love, not Karin." He whispered into her hair as he secretly inhaled her scent before kissing it. Sakura just moved her head away before looking him dead in the eye.
"Then break off the engagement." She stated with a flat voice. Sasuke just looked at her with mild surprise showing on his face, realizing that he hadn't shared his plan with her yet.
"I am planning too, but I simply can't break it off for another woman, that would be dishonorable and she doesn't deserve that, no woman does." He explained. Sakura's brow just deepened in its frown.
"So what are you waiting for then?" She pushed, wanting to know what he was going to do to get the annoying red head out of their hair.
"I'm going to wait until she slips up, I need to find a good reason to end it with her for good." He explained. Sakura nodded, taking in what he was saying before adding in her own input.
"But won't that take a while, she tends to only show you her good side?" She questioned. Sasuke thought about that for a while before shaking his head, if that were the case then he'd just have to look harder, it was simple enough he guessed.
Sakura had already guessed his answer from the look he gave her and rolled her eyes, that confidence he always seemed to carry around with him was going to be his downfall one day, she knew it. She also knew that confidence was going to be one of the excuses she uses when she finally gives him a black eye.
"I'm hungry, make me bacon." Sakura ordered as her stomach rumbled. Sasuke just raised an eyebrow at the sudden change in topic but ignored it for the moment and got up. He started to wonder if Vampire's had some sort of addiction to bacon, it wouldn't surprise him in the least, considering the amount Sakura could devour in only a mere day.
"I'll need to take you to rehab for this obsession you have." He mumbled under his breath but Sakura caught every word of it like he'd simply said it out loud. So with a scowl on her face she stood up, walked over to Sasuke and whacked the back of his head, causing him to stumble a bit before grabbing the back of his head and cursing.
"What was that for?" He whined loudly, rubbing the back of his head to try and sooth the sore area. Sakura just huffed before moving into the spacious kitchen before turning around to answer the question.
"Don't insult the Bacon God, you ass, it tastes good therefore I eat it. It's no obsession, it's a way of life." She explained in a serious tone, even though she was talking utter shite. Apart from it tasting good. Sasuke just rolled his eyes before moving over to the fridge to dig through the odd food supply, highly doubting that he even had it, Karin probably would have thrown it out even if he did have it. That woman had something against pork.
"Apparently we're fresh out." He stated blandly before turning to see Sakura's crest fallen expression. He felt the urge to snort at her but remembered what happened last time he did that, he found it funny how she could act so childish at times and then act overly mature the next.
"I have some Tofu though." He offered, holding up Karin's new dieting product. Sakura scrunched her nose up before pushing him out of the way to take a look for herself, then groaned. The fridge was a depressing sight indeed, it was filled with so many low fat food from so many different country's that Sakura actually felt sympathy for Sasuke. In fact, the only meat product she could even find in the fridge was a lonely packet of ham in the corner.
"I'll have a ham sandwich please." She said over her shoulder at Sasuke, digging through all the unknown foreign foods to get to the ham in the corner. Sasuke nodded absentmindedly as he dug out the bread, ignoring Sakura when she decided it would be funny to throw the packet of ham at his face.
"Your boring." Sakura commented as she leant against the counter, watching him make her food. It was weird really, she'd never in a million years have thought that one day she'd be watching the Sasuke Uchiha making her lunch, the mere thought sent her head spinning, then again she'd never imagined that he would owned an entire top floor. The rich bastard didn't even have a front door, cause 'oh that would be too common' of him, so he got a feckin lift instead!
Sasuke ignored her for the moment before he pushed his finished masterpiece her way. She dug into it without complaints and he was happy to see that her table manners had improved from when she'd first arrived, at least she had her mouth closed this time. Then he remembered something he'd been meaning to tell her.
"Oh, Sakura before I forget. Itachi said he'd found Suigetsu's address." He said looking over at her. Sakura paused mid bite with a thoughtful look in her eyes before putting in down and turning to him.
"How the hell did he get that? Did he even keep within the law?" She asked, raising an eyebrow as she did so. Sasuke snorted before shaking his head slightly and giving her a small, amused smirk.
"I doubt it. Hence why I didn't get involved." He replied with the smirk never quite leaving his lips. Sakura rolled her eyes and wondered about this suigetsu guy, like his motives for instance. Itachi had shown her his photo the other day but she was positive that she'd never seen the man in her entire life, it couldn't be possible that the vampires had employed humans could it? It was impossible though, humans were only used as food, nothing more.
"When are we going to go visit the ass face?" She asked with a fake innocent smile, but Sasuke could easily see the irritation behind her closed eyes and inside the slight twitch she would get in her left eye. Sasuke held back the snort he had been preparing to let loose in exchange for his life, not feeling in the mood for one of her bone breaking kicks, not that he'd fallen victim to one yet, but you never know.
"Whenever I guess. It's up to you really." He answered. Sakura hummed in thought with her finger on her chin. Sasuke had to resist the urge to ruffle her pink hair, she looked so cute like that, he thought. Of course though he had no doubt in his mind that if he voiced his thoughts then Sakura would probably kick him so hard he'd be chewing on his own balls. He knew from dealing with the woman that she wouldn't be thankful for the comment.
"Can we go tonight then. We'd just draw attention to ourselves if we go just now." She explained before picking up her sandwich and pulling Sasuke by the hand, leading him into the huge living room. He couldn't hold back the pink that dusted his cheeks when she grabbed his hand.
Sakura wasn't much for public affection, then again neither was Sasuke, but when they were alone Sakura couldn't help but take his hand in hers. She knew it wasn't right, him being engaged and all, but it wasn't like they were all over each other in the middle of the streets like some people.
She led him over to the sofa and plonked down, stealing the remote before Sasuke had the chance and began flipping through. Sasuke threw his arm lazily back over her shoulder and rested his head on hers, preparing to nothing but sit they're with Sakura until further notice.
…!...
Both Uchiha brothers could feel the irritation rising off of the pink haired half-breed next to them. Itachi couldn't really blame her of course, after a whole month of waiting she was finally going to face the man who had tried to beat her senseless. Then he went and got them lost…
Well, when he said lost he really meant that the first five addresses he'd found had either led to buildings that simply didn't exist, or were occupied by other people. They were on the second last one and he hoped that this would be the right one, otherwise he couldn't guarantee his safety. From what Sasuke had told him she was still pretty pissed about the other day, even though it had produced beautiful results.
But he didn't dwell too much on the idea of an early grave and instead concentrated on getting them to the next apartment building. They turned another corner and entered yet another litter infested street where graffiti and shutters covered the walls, the brick work only showing in the odd area. Sakura seemed unaffected by the site seeing as she'd spent her whole teenage years living in streets like these but the two rich kids seemed to be a little taken aback, even though they'd seen streets like this before, but it still shocked them every time that people actually lived there.
"Is this the place?" Sakura grumbled, stopping outside some grotty old building that looked like every other along the street. Itachi looked at the sheet of paper he'd had hidden in his jacket pocket and looked up at the name printed above the main door, it was a match. He gave an impatient Sakura a nod before she stormed into the building, leaving behind the two men who simply looked at each other before walking in.
The third floor, number thirty-four, Sakura repeated in her mind over and over again as she walked along the corridor, eyeing every door she walked past like they had personally offended her. Sasuke eventually caught up to her but made no attempt to stop her, this was something she needed to do, they both needed to do.
"There it is." Sakura growled as she walked towards it, impatiently waiting for Itachi and Sasuke to catch up. She stood to the side of the door, keeping herself hidden from view as Itachi knocked on the door, feeling the burning of anticipation in the pit of his stomach. He could hear shuffling behind the door before it opened the tiniest bit, the metal clanking against the floor as it did so.
The two brothers remained emotionless as a head of silver and bright purple eyes peaked around the door to great them. Itachi took in his lazy expression as he regarded them behind the door, to be honest the man looked like he'd just rolled out of bed. He glanced over to Sasuke for a moment before taking an almost invisible gulp and opening the door further to lean against the metal frame.
"What do you want?" He asked lazily, his arms crossed loosely over his chest, not noticing the pink haired girl who was behind the now open door. She recognized that voice clearly like the attack was yesterday. She felt her anger bubble up at that point as her fists clenched tight and her muscles stiffened and her chest let out an almost silent growl.
Sasuke noticed the change in Sakura and gulped, looking straightforward again so the silver haired man wouldn't notice. Suigetsu leaned against the door with a cautious look in his eyes, Sasuke wanted to know why he was looking at him like he'd just stolen his TV.
"Are you Suigetsu?" Itachi asked in his usual calm, professional voice.
"Yes. What do you want." He asked again and glanced over to Itachi, who was looking at him with that cool coloured stare that was meant to intimidate.
Sakura couldn't take it anymore, she'd never been one have good control of her temper and this was one of those times. She stalked forward, pushing Sasuke and Itachi out of her way as she smashed the surprised silver haired man with her clenched fist. He fell to the floor in a heap not moving for a second as he took in his knew position on the floor. Both brothers stood wide-eyed as they watched Sakura grab his ankles and drag him into the flat. Sasuke couldn't help but think that she looked like a murderer hiding the dead corpse.
"Was that really necessary?" Itachi questioned as he stepped through the door, walking through the surprisingly fancy looking flat. He watched as Sakura dragged the half groaning man into the living room before dumping his legs back on the ground.
"Yeah, it really was." She answered simply as she stood up straight, her hands on her hips as she looked around the room, her expression a lot calmer now that she'd punched Suigetsu.
Sasuke closed the door behind him before joining his brother in the living room, waiting for the silver haired man to stop rubbing his jaw and sit up. Once he did sit up it became clear why he had taken so long to sit up, the left side of his jaw was bright red from the impact and was already showing signs of swelling. It looked sore.
"Care explain yourself dip shit." Sakura demanded and she loomed over him, making him seem small as he looked up into her green eyes that practically glowed in her shadowed face. He took a deep gulp and realized that it was worse than he thought.
At first when Suigetsu saw Sasuke Uchiha of all people he thought he'd been caught sleeping with his fiancé or something, which would suck too, but nowhere near the suckish level he was at now. Not only did he get punched, which for the record, hurt like hell, but now he's going to be questioned and possibly hit again. Joy…
"Maybe if you didn't crack my jaw then you might get your answers a little more quickly." He replied in a sarcastic tone that made Sakura frown. She wasn't up for his crap, she wanted answers.
"Well if you can make stupid remarks like that then you can answer a simple question." She growled. Suigetsu closed his mouth, deciding not to answer that with sarcasm. He remembered what happened last time he'd encountered the pink haired girl. She'd more or less beaten up a group of young thugs, broken his bat and knocked out several men with one punch. He wasn't an idiot and knew that it was a bad idea to her piss off, her strength was just unnatural.
"What do you want to know?" He almost mumbled. He looked away to the side with a deep frown, not wanting to look her in the eyes. Sasuke looked at the man on the floor, wondering if this was really the one that attacked Sakura. He looked so nervous and jumpy, it was hard to believe.
"Oh so now you're willing to talk?" She snapped, folding her arms over her chest. She couldn't believe this idiot. When they'd first met in the woods he'd refused to even mutter a word on what she wanted to know and now he was willing to spill his guts? She hated men, leaving Sasuke out of course… And maybe Itachi.
"Yeah." He mumbled again, letting out a long deep sigh as he did so. Sakura waited for him to tell her what she wanted to know, but nothing came. He just sat there with his hands on his crossed legs and his head turned to the side as he gazed out of the window.
"Usually when you agree to grass someone in it is followed quickly by the grassing." Sakura commented dryly, a blank look on her face as she regarded the irritating man. Suigetsu looked at her cheekbone, not wanting to look directly into her eyes. He was still troubled about something, even though he knew that he'd be found out soon, Karin was keeping him updated in that area, so he was prepared for that. It was the aftermath of this little gathering that he was worried about.
"You're going to report me." His voice was toneless and a little depressing in Sakura's opinion. It wasn't a question that he'd asked because he knew that they were going to, what else would they do? It's not like there was much more they could do, except maybe hit him more.
"And why would we do that?" Itachi questioned, stepping forward with his arms also crossed over his chest and looking down at the man in an intimidating manner, not letting him get off easy. Suigetsu looked up at him before moving his gaze to Itachi's left eyebrow, not liking the look in his eyes. He had a feeling that this was going to get violent if he didn't start talking. It was bad enough that his jaw was killing him, he wasn't in the mood for any more sore bruises.
"Because that's what people do?" He asked in a sarcastic tone. Sakura resisted all urges to face palm, was this guy an idiot? It was actually rather offensive that he had been able to sneak up on her, if he was really this daft then that didn't exactly say much about her brainpower either.
"Please stop being a twat head before I'm forced to hit you, I've never been famous for having a cool head." She said in a low, dark and dangerous tone that sent the hairs on the back of his neck on end. There was no doubt in his mind that the threat wasn't just empty words, he'd seen that woman fight, he'd seen her get stabbed and whacked over the head, yet she'd still beaten eight armed men.
"I'll only tell you if you promise me something." He stated, looking up to meet Sakura's gaze for the first time with determined eyes. Itachi and Sasuke both raised an eyebrow at the odd request but agreed all the same, it wasn't like they were wanting to hurt the man after all, so if promising him something meant that he would tell then they wouldn't have to. Simple enough really.
Sakura looked over her shoulder at the two Uchiha brothers, wondering if they'd lost their minds. Why would they agree to that? For all she knew it could be completely unreasonable, like asking them to pay him tones of money or something. They clearly weren't thinking this through.
"You idiots, what if it's something really unreasonable, what if he wants money?" She growled put, giving them an annoyed glare. Sasuke rolled his eyes at Sakura, annoying her further before explaining.
"We don't have much choice really, it's either this or we beat it out of him." He stated, looking into Sakura's eyes, wondering why he fell for such a violent tempered woman. He was going to die young if this continued.
"Why not!" Sakura whined, turning around with her back to Suigetsu, who just stared between the two wondering how the situation had changed to quickly.
"We can't just beat the guy up Sakura!" Sasuke scolded, frowning down at her like she was a small child. Sakura on the other hand just huffed before flicking a stray lock of pink hair out of her face, the man really knew how to piss her off.
"That's not really answering my question." She deadpanned, not taking her gaze away from the younger Uchiha who did the same.
"You weren't exactly very specific when you asked." He replied in his usual blank tone. Sakura growled before spinning around and facing the man who was still sitting on the floor with a rather confused look on his face.
"What do you want? Money?" She questioned, giving up on arguing against the Uchiha twit. Suigetsu looked up at her with a serious gaze and didn't even attempt to look away.
"That none of this will come back to me. If the police or anyone finds out then I'm screwed." He stated, completely serious.
"And why would we do that?" Sakura questioned, wondering why the hell she should when he was the one that had committed the crime in the first place.
"I was just following orders, I'm not the person you want to beat senseless." He explained. Sakura looked back at him before letting out a long breath she'd been holding onto. He was right, in a way she guessed. He wasn't the man she should be beating up, like he said, he was just following orders, he wasn't the one with the grudge against her.
"Fine, now tell me who sent you?" She demanded, taking a few steps back so she was next to Sasuke, all waiting for the silver haired mans answer.
Suigetsu stood up, dusted off his jeans before rubbing his jaw, looking completely at ease even though there was a half vampire in the room that wanted to beat him senseless.
"Okay, but you got to promise me that you'll take me seriously." He said looking at them with that serious look in his eyes. He stuffed his hands in his jean pockets and stood there with his shoulders hunched.
"And why would we have to promise you anything else? For all we know you could be lying." Itachi stated in a cool calm voice. Suigetsu simply looked at him before giving out a long sigh.
"Because it's the last person you'd expect, trust me. She's sneakier than you'd give her credit for." He answered in a bored tone, not bothering to look away now that he'd managed to get their attention. Sakura noticed how he had said 'she' and not 'he', something that did narrow down the list of suspects drastically, the list wasn't even that big to begin with.
"Just tell me already." Sakura said in a moody tone, wanting to get out of the flat as soon as possible.
Suigetsu took in a deep breath, not exactly wanting to say anything now. He'd made up his mind ages ago that he going to tell them everything but when it actually came down to it he wasn't too sure if he should. It was harder to do in reality than it had been in his mind.
"It's Karin." He muttered. He was sure that they didn't hear him but when Sakura growled he was sure that they had.
Sakura had been the only one who had actually heard right because her hearing was so much better but she wasn't sure if he was right. Karin didn't seem the type to go this far if she didn't like someone, but that didn't stop the growl that climbed its way up her throat.
"Are you serious?" She asked, disbelief clear in her voice. The two brothers simply looked at her with confused expressions, wondering how she was able to actually hear that.
"What did he say?" Sasuke muttered to Sakura who was still looking over at Suigetsu.
"He said its Karin." She stated in a dead voice, her anger slowly building as the new information sunk in.
"No way. Seriously, but I don't think I buy that. She wouldn't do something like this." Sasuke said. He wouldn't in a million years have thought that the very woman he was engaged to was the one who had ordered Suigetsu to beat up Sakura.
"She's sneakier than you think, trust me." Suigetsu warned. Sasuke stood there in shock for about two minutes, wondering how it was possible for Karin to do something like that. He had remembered that argument they'd had a while ago but he'd not really thought much of it, and now that he thought about it, the attack had happened the night after.
So let me get this straight." Sakura commented. "Karin, as in red headed glasses wearing sloth Karin, is the one who sent you."
"That's right." He said, not really knowing what else to say.
"How the hell would you two know each other in the first place?" She questioned, raising an eyebrow as she considered the possibilities.
Suigetsu didn't really want to answer that question, considering her fiancé was in the room. He looked away guiltily out the window, hoping that Sakura would drop the subject, of course that was very unlikely.
"We… uh… do business?" He guessed, scratching the back of his head as he did so. Sakura's other eyebrow lifted up as she caught onto what he was trying to say, as did Sasuke.
"She was having an affair?" He questioned, his eyebrows pulling down into a frown. He'd never even had the slightest doubt that she'd be with another man, ever. He'd always thought that he was enough. The thought pissed him off quite a bit.
"Do you really have to put it that way?" Suigetsu asked, not wanting them to find another reason to hit him. Sasuke sent him a glare, His mood was now heading south, Itachi could feel it oozing off of his form and decided that maybe it was time to call it quit's.
"We should go. We know everything that we wanted to know in the first place." Itachi stated. Everybody looked over at him with curiosity, except Suigetsu who just looked relived.
Sasuke simply nodded understanding that there wasn't really much more to learn or sort out here. He grabbed Sakura's hand before dragging her off behind him. Sakura had wanted to hit Suigetsu around a little more but gave up on that idea when Sasuke had latched onto her hand.
As they all left Suigetsu couldn't help but flop onto his sofa and let out a long, tired sigh before muttering two words under his breath.
"Holy shit."
…!...
Karin stood in the lift that led up to the condo with six near bursting bags in either hand. She couldn't be happier, not only did she have a practically unlimited money source, but also she was engaged to the Sasuke Uchiha, one of the hottest men in Konoha, possibly all of Japan. She walked out of the lift with a smile on her face and into the silent condo.
She was completely unaware of the three extra bodies that were currently taking up the living room. She marched in with a big grin on her face and dumped her bursting bags on one of the chairs before a light came flickering on. Karin almost jumped out of her skin when the light went up, she took a step back and noticed Itachi in the corner next to the lamp that was now conveniently lighting up the room. She then noticed Sasuke and Sakura sitting on the sofa facing her, she couldn't help but glare a little when she noticed the lack of distance between the two.
"What's going on Sasuke?" She asked in a confused voice, not really understanding why they were all waiting up for her. Sasuke let out a single humorless chuckle before meeting her gaze with that intense and serious gaze of his.
"You should know perfectly well what's going on, Karin." She couldn't help but shudder at the cold, dead tone he used, especially when he said her name. She thought back to something that she might have done but had come up blank.
"No, not really. You're going to have to be more specific." She replied. Karin looked around at Itachi and noticed the cold glare he was sending her, it sent another cold shiver down her spine. She knew perfectly well that he wasn't too fond of her, but he'd never been so openly hostile to her before.
"We talked to Suigetsu earlier, seems that he was more than happy to provide us information on my attackers." Sakura stated in the same cold voice that had the smallest hint of deadly anger laced through it.
Karin froze were she was, knowing exactly what they were talking about now. She couldn't believe that bastard! He'd grassed on her! The next time she saw him she was going to kill him.
"Oh, and who's that?" She asked, playing dumb, hoping that she could quickly find a way out of this.
"Don't act dumb. You know exactly what she means." Itachi stated from the corner, the light from the lamp casting shadows on his face that made him look scary.
"What exactly did he say?" Karin questioned, dropping the act, she should have known that it wouldn't have gotten her anywhere with these people.
Sakura sighed and massaged her temple, feeling the beginning of a headache coming on, she had a feeling it was going to be a long night. But the thought of maybe getting a swing at the red headed sloth later kept her spirits up.
"That you're the one who got him to attack me, and that you've been sleeping with him." She added on as an after thought. She felt Sasuke twitch slightly as she said the last part and wondered if he was going to call her out on that himself.
"And you believe that ass!" Karin yelled, proving that she did know him and raising the possibility that it was her that ordered it. Sakura mentally rolled her eyes at her own stupidity, she was walking right into it. She practically had the sign above her head saying 'It was me!'.
"Yes." Sasuke stated blandly, looking up at her. Karin frowned, realizing that she didn't have many options left. She really didn't think that they'd figure it out so soon. She thought she'd at least have another few months and by that time they would have been married and if he decided to divorce then at least she'd have half his money.
"Okay so you know, so what?" She asked, folding her arms and sitting on the chair behind her, completely dropping the act now that she'd been caught. Her mouth was curled up in a sarcastic smirk and her eyes showed no fear or regret behind her styled glasses.
Sakura raised an eyebrow at her sudden change in attitude and wondered if she was finally seeing the real Karin after all this time. She looked like she didn't give a damn about what was happening and that she found it amusing. Karin lent back in the chair with her legs crossed over her other as well as her arms loosely crossed.
"So, I want you out of here." Sasuke stated blandly, not letting his anger show through. Karin only blinked at the comment, she'd been expecting something like that, but there was no way she was going to go without giving them a piece of her mind.
"So that's it? Your going to kick me out even though I'll have known where to go? I did nothing wrong! Yeah sure I slept with someone else but it wasn't like you haven't been getting it on with the rat next to you. So you have no room to talk." She stated.
"What?" Both Sakura and Sasuke asked at the same time, only one was filled with surprise and the other amusement. Sakura couldn't help but let out a small snort at Karin's obviously made up story. Normally she would have felt offended if she'd been called a rat but considering the woman clearly had no idea what she was talking about it just went over her head.
"Karin, we've never slept together, trust me." Sasuke said, surprise still clear on his face. He didn't even think that he and Sakura looked like that kind of couple. Of course he guessed he should have seen it coming, before he'd gotten engaged Sasuke had a new woman every week.
"And how do I know your not lying?" Karin questioned, giving Sakura an evil glare as she said so. The amused smirk fell off of Sakura's lips when she met the steady glare of Karin's with one of her own, she was not going to be beaten in a glare off with a red sloth.
"Karin, give it up. You're not getting out of this so easily. Plus whether we've slept together or not is none of your concern." Sasuke scolded, joining in on the glaring. Karin broke eye contact with Sakura to look at Sasuke who was still nudged up against Sakura.
"Of course it is! We're engaged!" She yelled, standing up as she lost the 'I-don't-care' attitude she had a moment ago.
"Not anymore." Sasuke shot back. The frown on Karin's face disappeared as it turned blank, she knew it would happen, but hadn't thought that he'd be so casual about it! It came as a bit of a shock.
"Well fine then! I don't need you anyway, there's plenty of places where I could go! Your not the only man out there either, you'll be easy to replace." She spat. Sasuke simply sat there with that blank expression of his, which only served to fuel Karin's anger.
She pulled off the engagement ring on her finger and flung it at his head, only missing and hitting the back wall instead. She then grabbed her bags and walked away with the surrounding air reflecting her bad mood. Karin never intended to come back here again, even if it meant that she'd lost to that stupid rat…
…!...
