Chapter Eight; The Result of Boredom
Note; As I told you before this chapter is completely one hundred percent original and was inspired by the 1996 movie Matilda so I really hope you enjoy it!
Naruto and Sasuke met Sakura and Keiko at the restaurant. "Hey Sasuke, can I talk to you for a second?" Sakura wondered.
"Yeah, sure. I was just wondering where you are going to park the magic carpet?" Sasuke inquired with a grin while pointing his thumb back over his shoulder as Keiko smiled.
"Don't worry Sasuke-Kun, I can make it go invisible whenever I want to." She told him with a proud grin before her eyes turned white and sure enough it vanished. That's when suddenly Sakura took Sasuke aside.
"Keiko, why don't you go inside with Naruto alright?" she suggested while Keiko nodded.
"Okay big sis! Come on Naruto!" she exclaimed before she took ahold of him by the hand and dragged him inside.
"Sasuke, Keiko told me that you're getting ready to do a fundraiser or something." Sakura told him.
"Oh yeah, that." Sasuke replied. "We're helping the poor. Keiko agreed to use her powers of seeing the future." He told her.
"Really? Well that's nice of you both to do." She told him with a grin.
"Yeah, now let's go in and get something to eat. I'm ravenous." Sasuke told her before he turned around and walked away before she could get in another word edgewise.
"Sasuke?" she questioned him with uncertainty before he walked inside.
….
"So Sasuke, what are you going to order?" Naruto wondered.
"If I know Sasuke, I'm pretty sure that he's going to order some grilled cheese and tomato soup." Sakura told him.
"Well, I guess you do know me after all." He replied with a grin.
"I want macaroni cheese and cookie dough ice cream." Keiko said.
"But you just had cookie dough ice cream a couple of days ago." Sasuke pointed out.
"I know." Keiko began. "But I love cookie dough ice cream! It's my favorite!" she exclaimed excitedly before the waitress walked over to their table.
"Alright, I will make a deal with you." Sakura began. "If you eat all of your macaroni and cheese you can have ice cream after lunch. Deal?" she inquired.
"Deal!" she agreed while Sasuke simply just grinned.
"Hn." He said. He didn't know why but she was really starting to interest him and have an affect on him even though he didn't want to admit it.
Later on that afternoon after the four of them had finished their lunch they all went back to their hotel together. "Hey, did you guys know that this place has a pool!?" Naruto cried very eagerly with excitement while stepping inside Sakura's and Keiko's room. That's when suddenly Keiko let out a deep and heavy sad sigh.
"What's wrong Keiko?" Sakura asked her.
"I can't swim." She replied.
"You're kidding me. You're ten years old and you don't know how to swim?" Sasuke questioned her with uncertainty and disbelief.
"No." she replied with another deep and heavy sad sigh while she shook her head and slowly laid her head back on the bed smacking her lips.
"Alright, so, let's do something else instead." Naruto said while Keiko continued smacking her lips.
Sasuke took a deep breath and sighed. "Do you have to do that?" he wondered.
"Anybody got any ideas of what we can do yet?" Naruto questioned when all of a sudden a wide grin stretched a crossed Keiko's face as her eyes turned white and the radio behind her head over on top of the nightstand turned on all by itself and "Little Bitty Pretty One" came on. "Uh,.. what's going on?" he wondered. Keiko waved her arms in the air and magically closed the curtains before staring at the ceiling, pointing at it, and making a disco ball appear. "Huh?" he inquired while widening his eyes as Keiko suddenly leapt to her feet.
She pointed at her fluffy white stuffed unicorn (with a pink heart on its side and a rainbow colored mane) toy that sat near the headboard and it got up onto its hooves and started dancing back and forth while kicking its legs in the air. Then she pointed it at her tiny purple stuffed teddy bear and made it do a backflip as she started dancing herself do the twist while snapping her fingers.
"Hn. That's interesting." Sasuke said as Keiko pointed at her stuffed beagle dog and made him start flapping his ears in time to the music before the song finally ended.
"Yeah,.." Naruto began. "That be nice as a kid. When you get bored you can make your toys dance around." He finished.
"Looks like fun." Sasuke said while smiling down at Keiko and winking as she smiled back up at him.
I'm sorry, I realize that was a rather short chapter but it's getting kind of late and I wasn't feeling very well today. There SHOULD be more tomorrow and that's when we're getting back to the story of the roleplay where Keiko goes to see a childhood friend of hers in the sand village although it will still be a tad bit different from the original roleplay.
