Enjoy! Chapter:2 Opps Wrong Room
It had taken no longer than forty five minutes to arrive at the University of Konoha. Sakura, along with her mother and father had left their home around nine in the morning. The Haruno's had expected that the journey, not only to the University, but also in setting up Sakura's dorm room would be easy. Unfortunately it was anything but that.
Rain poured mercilessly from the sky, drenching Sakura as she hauled over towards the Admissions building. Just moments ago it had been sunshine and pretty, pretty skies. But now it was nothing but gloomy gray clouds, wind and thick rain drops that splashed any and everywhere.
Sakura panted as she and her mother ran up to the front desk, completely out of breath. They had walked to what they believed was Sakura's dorm room; A 109 in the first two of the freshman housing buildings.
Now normally at colleges or in any type of building the floors followed from the beginning of the alphabet and went up. However at the University of Konoha the floors went backwards. There were two letters in each building: A and B. Each letter had three floors filled with the maximum of forty rooms, which means that there were one hundred and twenty rooms to a letter. Thankfully Sakura's room was supposedly the third to last up in the building. The plus side was that she had a great view of the Campus. The down side was that after journeying up towards her room, she found out soon enough that it wasn't her room.
So now Sakura and Mrs. Haruno had hurried to the Admission's building to run down the hall towards the residents' office. In the meantime, Sakura's father was out fetching the car.
"May I ask what the problem, Mrs. Haruno is?" The secretary asked as she stared down at Mrs. Haruno's visitors tag.
"My husband, daughter and I just traveled all the way up to A-109 in the freshman building only to find out that my daughter wasn't going to be boarding there. There were two students already residing in that room. But I confirmed earlier that she was indeed in A-109. Can you tell me what happened?"
Sakura had tried to reason and convince her mother that it was probably just a minor mix up. It wasn't like they had secretly kicked her out of the school and waited until she arrived to inform her or anything. But Mrs. Haruno was still nervous and Sakura couldn't blame her. Not only did the day start off badly, but the rain didn't help the situation at all.
"Hmm, that's strange. Let me check it out for you; just a moment ma'am." The secretary swiveled in her chair towards a computer on her right. Her fingers jabbed at keys and her eyes narrowed as something popped up on the screen. She made a small sound, almost as if frustrated but it eventually grew into a smile. She pushed off the ground, rolling her chair back in front of the two females on the opposite side of the desk. "Here is the problem. Your dear Sakura received an Academic Scholarship yes?"
Mrs. Haruno smiled brilliantly, while Sakura blushed. "Why yes she did. But what does that have to do with anything?"
"The University of Konoha is a bit different than other colleges. Normally we don't allow freshman to board in the apartments. They aren't allowed to transfer until their sophomore year. However Sakura is an Academic Scholar, therefore she's been pushed into the apartment buildings." She paused as she let the information set in. Both women stared utterly flabbergasted at Rin, the secretary. "I apologize for the mix-up ladies and any…trouble you two have been through this morning." She jerked her chin towards their soaked forms. She continued, "If you go out this side door, up the small little hill and across the street over their, you will come to the Fire building. Just take the elevator up to A, level three, which is technically the first of the A's because it goes backwards and then make a right towards one-oh-nine. Your roommate should already be there with your key." She ended with a sweet and sincere smile.
"Oh thank you so much." Mrs. Haruno cried when she was able to form a coherent sentence. She reached over the table to shake Rin's hand. Sakura followed suite before both women finally rushed over, through the pouring rain, towards the Fire Apartments.
"Damn it, does the rain ever stop?" Sakura growled as water droplets fell heavily on her head.
"Oh who cares? I am so proud of you sweetheart. The apartments! Oh my, I've got to call your father…where is my phone?"
"Mom, can't you just call him when we get to the dorm?"
"Certainly not, he has to meet us there for one. Come on sweetie lets go." A few moments passed by and Sakura heard nothing from her mother until, "Oh Kenji-kun…guess where out daughter gets to live."
Sakura let out a fowl groan as she trudged over towards the Apartment building.
"Sasuke…" A voice purred soft enough for only the sexy man before her to hear. She smirked seductively at him before bending her head down enough to peek at Mikoto from underneath Sasuke's arm which was now propped up against the door frame. Karin forged an innocent smile and waved politely to Mikoto.
"Sa-Sasuke-kun, is this a friend of yours?" Mikoto's shaken voice was a little hoarse from the shock. There in front of her half naked son, stood a young woman about the same age, wearing a short and tight fitting black skirt. She also wore a tight black halter top that showed just a bit too much cleavage. She was decked out in a diamond necklace and carried a black pocket book. On her feet were clasped red Gucci high heel shoes. Her red painted nails were the same color as her crimson hair and glasses which framed her black eyes. The girl left hardly anything to the imagination.
What was this girl? Some sort of siren or a demon no doubt. Mikoto didn't know, but she also did not get a good vibe from the girl.
"I met Karin last year mother…" Her youngest son's voice awoke her from her horrible spell. Her eyes shot to his and she smiled warily.
"Oh, well why don't you invite her in son?" Mikoto said politely as she turned away and made her way over towards her husband's side. Sasuke nodded to Karin, motioning for her to take a step into the newly furnished apartment. She obliged eagerly.
Karin sauntered slowly into the room, letting her heels click loudly against the wooden floor. The little wall, which created a small hallway into the apartment, shielded her from the view of the rest of the Uchiha's. The wall stopped once she walked up to the border where the wood met the carpet. Carefully she bent down-in a very lady like manner and pulled off her heels, leaving them on the wooden part of the floor. She continued on into the living room, Sasuke not far behind her, until she reached the rest of the Uchiha family. She bowed politely and smiled.
"It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Uchiha-san." She turned, "And you must be Itachi-san."
He smirked and nodded, "I'm sure my dear little brother has told you so much about me."
Karin only smiled.
"That's odd, because we haven't heard a damn thing about you." Fugaku, who was the most vocal about his dislike towards Karin, spoke up.
"Fugaku," Mikoto hissed.
He waved her off.
"How do you know our son?"
"We've taken a few classes together."
"So you are a second year then?" Itachi asked and received a short nod as a reply.
Fugaku's eyes narrowed. "So are you a business major, or are you just toying with us because you know we own one of the most successful companies in Japan…in the world at this moment in time." A petite hand slapped his arm with force.
"Enough Fugaku, behave damn it." Mikoto growled, growing angry with her husbands' rude actions.
"No sir, it's not like that at all really." Karin spoke with a sour smile, trying are not to scowl at the man. "I won't lie, I am fully aware of your family's status within the business world. But that is not why I am…friends with your son." She smiled. It seemed innocent on the surface but there was clearly a double meaning to her actions. Itachi was sure he was the only one who caught on, knowing full well of his brother's notorious relationships with the female race. Itachi pursed his lips. She was alright, but honestly Itachi knew his little brother could do better. Mikoto bit her lip with anxiety.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Fugaku questioned.
"Karin's family owns a wealthy business in Kyoto. If you think she's a gold digger, she's not. We are just friends from business class." Karin nodded.
"I know everything detail about my family's business-"
"And what business might that be?" Itachi finally piped up, ignoring the cold glare he felt piercing his skin.
"We own the Kaori Fashion Company."
"You last name is Kaori?" Mikoto blurted out in astonishment. Karin smiled and nodded, while Sasuke smirked beside her.
"Yes ma'am, my name is Karin Kaori. I'm the heir to my families company but I am a Theatre art major. I also might want to be a singer. I could do both." She smiled and for once it was completely genuine.
"So what brings you here so early? Do you live on this floor?" Mikoto asked quietly, feeling a little less tense around the young woman.
"Oh well I heard Sasuke was back and so I wanted to say my hello's. I actually live in Sound, the next apartment building over. I came here to pick up a friend of mine so we could go out to eat, but I made a little detour. I was hoping Sasuke and I could…catch up." She giggled while Sasuke smirked devilishly beside her. "It'll have to wait though, I can't keep my friend waiting and I also don't want to impose on your family time."
"That's…very sweet of you Karin."
"Not a problem…besides I have a feeling your roommate will be showing up soon." She paused, "Call it a six sense if you wish," She shrugged. "Oh speaking of, I have a flyer to give you." She unwrinkled the paper from her pocket book and handed it to Sasuke. "The school says there is no danger but…we should all be well informed; even our parents."
"What is it?' Fugaku questioned for once without hostility in his tone.
"There have been a few murders in the region. I'm not sure if you heard about it on the news…Kohaku news- the school news channel- might broadcast it. No one is sure who the suspect is yet, but some weirdo is kidnapping women and killing them. So far each girl has either been with a guy or has some close ties with them."
"Why are you telling me?"
Karin turned to Sasuke and smiled. "We don't know if the guy will start switching which gender he kills. And if you see anything suspicious you can identify it. Also you should watch out in case you start dating someone." She winked before turning to head to the door. "Well it was nice meeting you all. Hopefully we can talk and get to know each other a little bit more but I really must be going."
"Be safe and it was nice meeting you too Karin." Only Mikoto replied.
As Sasuke and Karin walked over to the door, the girl slipped her shoes on carefully and then leaned in to whisper seductively in Sasuke's ear. "I'll see you later ne?"
"Aa," He leaned down and connected their lips. Karin pressed harder to him, her hand sliding between them as she memorized the lines of his hard flat stomach.
She purred
"Oh god, I've missed that body so damn much. I've missed you."
"Hn just a few hours more..." He paused, "Your place or mine, Karin?"
"Hmm, we'll decide that later." She hummed. She swept another small peck on his lips before turning to leave. "See ya around Sasuke." Once the door closed, Sasuke pivoted around and made a straight line for his room.
"I'm going to get changed."
"Okay, Oh, Sasuke sweetheart, you forgot your shirt." Mikoto shouted as she shuffled over towards the shirt which was lying on the floor beside the door. She picked it up and just as she was straightening her back a knock echoed off the door. She froze.
Sakura had seen a redhead walk rather briskly out of room A 109 only to disappear into another room down the hall.
"Was that my roommate?" She shrugged as she slowly made her way over towards the door. Pausing for a moment she glanced back down the hall in which she had seen the fiery red-head disappear before turning her attention back to the door in front of her. Gulping Sakura decided to knock on the door. Her mother was probably in the elevator with her father and it would probably be better to just figure out if this was her room, rather than to wait.
Letting out a shaky breath Sakura looked at her surroundings. The walls and floors were made of stone on the outside. Beside the door was a stone bench. There were three more down the left of the hall. Above the door was the letter and numbers A-109 in big bold metal. Sakura lifted her hand, seeing that the place looked harmless enough and was about to knock when she heard a feminine voice shout something from behind the door.
So my roommate is already in there. That's good then I guess.
Finally mustering up the courage, Sakura's fist pounded against the door in three quick rasps. She took a hesitant step back and bounced on her tippy toes with a mixture of eagerness and nervousness as she waited for someone to answer the door.
A moment later the door swung open and a woman about a five foot nine stood before her. Sakura's mouth parted in awe. The woman was beautiful, with long dark indigo, almost jet black hair and the most stunning pair of onyx eyes Sakura had ever seen. She had pale porcelain skin, like that of a china doll, and she was thin, with womanly curves in all the right places. She was wearing jeans and a baby blue shirt. Sakura was too stunned to notice that the woman was observing her as well.
Mikoto was shocked to say the least to see another young woman standing at her son's door. At least this one was dressed properly.
The girl stood in a purple short sleeved shirt, with shiny purple abstract musical designs printed on the front. She had an open black vet and now dark-because of the rain- blue jeans on. The blue stopped at her knees due to the black buckled boots she wore over them. Around her neck were a few long black chains that fell to the middle of her chest and a short-just below the collarbone length- silver necklace which spelled out her name: Sakura.
It was pretty and it definitely matched the most peculiar feature about her. Surrounding Sakura's face were short pink locks which clung messily to her face and neck as she stood soaked before Mikoto.
My, she is a gorgeous little girl. And she is covered to…in decent clothing. She seems to be a bit simpler than the other girl. Oh what am I doing, I'm analyzing her and I don't even know her yet. Mikoto thought to herself.
"You…You aren't my roommate are you?" Mikoto jerked, a tad bit startled by the soft but slightly raspy tone. It was sultry but cute, a very dangerous combination. Smiling softly Mikoto shook her head.
"Oh goodness no, I'm flattered that you think I look enough to be your roommate, but unfortunately my dear I am not. You must be my son's roommate."
Behind them Sasuke lifted an eyebrow in confusion. He had just exited his room with a different shirt on, only to find his mother chatting it up with someone. Walking forward, the youngest Uchiha made his way over towards his mother and his mysterious roommate.
The girl, who was just an inch or so shorter than Mikoto, flushed a peachy pink color. "I'm sorry what; y-your son? What?"
Just then Sasuke came into Sakura's view, towering over his mother. Her face grew tomato red at the sight of the man before her. He was the spitting image of his mother, the same hauntingly beautiful eyes, pale flesh and dark hair. However his hair was straight in the front and then fluctuated in the back, pointing in all different directions. It looked like controlled chaos in the sexiest of forms. His dark bottomless eyes were hooded, hidden by the shadows of the hallway and his thick lashes. His broad shoulders seemed endless, exuding power and dominance. Sakura gulped visibly. "I-I must have the wrong room."
"Were you supposed to come to A- one oh nine?" Mikoto asked patiently.
Sakura bit her lip and nodded. "Y-yes," She squeaked, "But they never said I would be…boarding with a male." She flushed prettily. Her eyes averted away from Sasuke's suddenly lustrous stare.
Oh, this was different. Sure Sasuke had fucked girls all the time. He had been doing it for years, been around girls for years. But he had never lived with one besides his mother. He had also never seen a girl with such exotic features as the one standing in front of his mother. Even though she was soaking wet she looked…mouth watering. Her clothing clung helplessly to her body, showing off the curves of her petite body. But what caught Sasuke the most were her eyes and hair. The pink was new but it strangely enough looked genuine. And her eyes, those startling emerald eyes held so much innocence in them it was hard to bear. Had she ever been touched by a man before?
Mikoto laughed. "As I was trying to tell my son before, once you move into the apartments, it's a possibility that you might room with someone of the opposite sex. These buildings are co-ed."
"When were you going to tell me that?"
Sakura's eyes darted up, shocked by the deep, husky baritone voice that came out of the man in front of her. She could feel the goose bumps rising on her skin.
"Earlier, dear before your… friend stopped by." Sasuke only nodded as he kept his eyes on Sakura. He smirked as she chewed on her bottom lip and her gaze slipped back towards the ground as she felt his heated stare weighing heavily on her body and face. "Hmm, where are your things…um?"
"Sakura," She answered in a clear normal tone for once. This time Sasuke froze. Every hair on his arm rose at not only the voice, but the name and the hair.
She's that girl from the other day in the mall at Tsuki Senritsu. That girl, with the annoying friend, the weird jacket and the hair… It must be her. I remember the pink from beneath the hood.
Well isn't it a small world.
Hn
"And my bags are with my parent's. They should be on their way up soon."
"Oh alright then, why don't you come in and I'll try to find you something to get you warm. We already furnished the apartment, so don't worry about a thing dear. All you need to worry about is your necessities and your own room."
Sakura blushed and smiled. "Oh okay, thank you…um, what's your name?" Sakura asked as she gingerly removed her soggy shoes and placed them down on the floor next to the other shoes. She walked into the living room behind Mikoto and froze.
"Um hello…"
Mikoto let out a soft laugh. "I am Uchiha Mikoto; these are my sons Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke and my husband Uchiha Fugaku."
Not recognizing the names, Sakura nodded. "It's a pleasure to meet you all."
Mikoto slipped an arm around Sakura as she spoke to the three males in the room. "Boy's this is umm-"
"Haruno…"
"Ah, Haruno Sakura, she's going to be Sasuke-kun's roommate this year."
"Sasuke…kun?" Sakura whispered, as if testing the name out on her tongue. She took another glance at the boy who was just a year or so older than her and nodded. It fit him.
"What? Nothing else to say, girl?" Sakura flinched.
"Excuse me?"
"About our last names?" Fugaku hissed impatiently.
"Fugaku, enough, leave the poor girl alone. If she hasn't reacted now, she obviously doesn't know."
"Hasn't reacted to what?"
"You don't know of the Uchiha Corporation do you?" Sakura glanced up to Itachi. He looked like the older version of Sasuke. She shook her head in confusion.
"No I'm…afraid I don't."
"That's good then."
Bam, bam!
"That must be your parent's neh? Sasuke-kun, please go get the door."
"Hai Kaa-san" He sighed.
Whizzing past Sakura and Mikoto with blinding speed, Sasuke went to answer the door.
"So Sakura, what year are you?"
"First," She blushed and ducked her head slightly as Mikoto ushered her towards the couch. "They moved me here because I received an Academic Scholarship."
"That's what happened with my little brother last year, only he had a male roommate."
"Oh," Sakura's face turned a darker shade of red.
"So what are you majoring in?" Fugaku questioned.
"I want to be a surgeon. I'm not sure if I want to get a degree in neurology yet, but I just know I want to help people."
"Impressive." Itachi muttered as he did a short unnoticeable nod.
"I am also minoring in music. If I wasn't going to be a doctor I would probably make music all day." Sakura said with a firm confident nod and a quick flash of her pearly whites.
Just then,
Grunt.
Thump.
"Hn"
Groan.
Crash!
"Ow"
"Kenji-kun, careful sweetheart you almost dropped all of Sakura's things! Why can't you put things down my gently like Sasuke-san over here?"
Twitch, twitch, and glare.
Smirk.
Mrs. Haruno walked over to Sasuke and patted his shoulder gently. "Thank you so much sweetheart for helping us with Sakura-chan's things."
"It's not a problem Mrs. Haruno." She smiled at him, meanwhile Mr. Haruno glared.
"I'll get the rest," He said before leaving the room. All that was really left to get was Sakura's jacket, her pillow and her guitar.
"Okay dear," She lent over and planted a sweet rewarding kiss on his lips. "Hurry along, and you," She hooked her arm in Sasuke's, "Please introduce me to your family.
He nodded.
"Mrs. Haruno, this is my mother, Mikoto Uchiha-"
"Excuse me?"
Fugaku's eyes narrowed at the woman's tone. This must meant trouble.
"The Uchiha Mikoto; didn't you do work trying to save animals in various countries?"
Mikoto flushed and smiled. "Yes, yes I did. I've been everywhere from Brazil to-"
"China, yes I know, I've followed your work until you stopped." Mikoto's eyes lowered, almost saddened by the thought. Nostalgically she sighed.
"Yes, my priorities where placed else where. I don't regret stopping because if I hadn't I wouldn't have been able to take care of my children." She smiled brilliantly, a heartwarming smile that made everyone in the room want to smile. "I still have a company that does the research and assistance for me. Sometimes I'll wander my way in there and see what I can do."
"How did you know about my mother's work?" Itachi asked.
"My mom is a veterinarian. She loves animals dearly. I remember she would always read articles on your work when ever she could…even if they were old."
"I never realized I would have a fan."
"You are quiet the inspiration Mrs. Uchiha. It truly is a pleasure getting to meet you."
Mikoto walked over to Mrs. Haruno and embraced her sweetly. "It's a pleasure meeting you too. My you've just turned my whole day around." She giggled. "Come, come, and let's chat. Sasuke-kun, could you find something for Sakura to wear so she doesn't catch cold?"
"Aa Kaa-san," Sasuke replied as he reached for Sakura's arm, taking her by the wrist. Sakura gasped as he began pulling her towards his room, her face a scarlet color.
"Sasuke-kun wait!" Sasuke tensed slightly, the flustered sound in her voice when she said his name it was…
His eyes darkened slightly. It was...
Tantalizing
"Come on, you heard my mother." He pulled her until they reached the threshold of his room. He quickly let go of her wrist and vanished into his room. Sakura's other hand clasped around the spot Sasuke's larger hand had just occupied.
His hand was so warm.
He's gorgeous too…
S-shut up…
Just maybe he could be…
No! No don't think about that. We are roommates now. Besides, he…wouldn't like me.
Just then the door swung back open revealing Sasuke with a handful of clothing. He extended his arm out to Sakura.
"Here," He cocked his head over towards the bathroom. "Go change in there."
Sakura nodded and made her way over towards the bathroom, with Sasuke not far behind. She closed the door with a click, letting Sasuke wait outside. He rested his back against the wall beside the door frame and crossed his arms, whilst peering down at their families. Everyone seemed to be getting along.
He didn't know whether to be appalled by that thought or happy. Suddenly Mr. Haruno strolled up to Sasuke, with fabric draped over his forearm. He held it out to the youngest Uchiha.
"Could you give this to Sakura when she gets out?"
"Aa,"
"You aren't much for words huh kid?"
Sasuke just looked at him but eventually sighed and shook his head. His mother would kill him if she knew he was being rude to the father of his roommate.
"Well thanks."
With that, Mr. Haruno went back over to sit next to his wife on the mini couch.
Click.
Sasuke angled his head to the side slightly just as Sakura bashfully came out of the bathroom. She looked up, slightly shocked to see Sasuke standing there waiting for her.
"Um…thank you Sasuke-kun." She blushed as she walked past him into the kitchen. She carefully draped her damp clothing on the back of one of the wooden chairs. From behind her Sasuke's eyes never left her form once. She looked even smaller in his clothing. She was wearing a plain black short sleeve shirt, which seemed to swallow her whole, and a pair of-now incredibly baggy- sweat pants. Her feet were bare, showing off the fresh red nail polish on her toes. She turned towards him, forcing his eyes to come back up and meet her face. Her hair was still wet, dripping onto the shirt, but Sasuke couldn't help but find the sight, sexy.
"Here, your father wanted me to give it to you." Sakura smiled as she took the jacket and slipped it on. It was at that moment that Sasuke caught a glimpse of the embroidery on the back. She was definitely the girl from the music store. Inwardly a devilish smirk formed. Oh this year was surely going to be interesting. And what was best was that he was on her good side so far.
Ten minutes later
"I don't listen to girl music."
"You don't listen to girl music? What the hell is that supposed to mean? What kind of sexist comment is that?" For the first time, Sasuke had heard Sakura's rise in an angry tone.
"I don't listen to all that pop, bubble gum shit."
"Well let me tell you something you egotistical, sexist pig!" Sakura spat as she moved closer, her finger jamming itself into the Uchiha's chest. Behind them both the Haruno and Uchiha families watched intrigued and slightly worried by the sight. The Uchiha's because they had never witnessed a female act so brashly towards their handsome son. Most girls would just smile and nod or cower away in fear. But Sakura seemed like a force to be reckoned with. "Not all girls listen to or sing that pop bubble gum shit. Don't be an asshole and label every girl you see to that. Some of us actually have good taste in music!"
The two stared at each other. A silent war was waging with their eyes, green clashing stubbornly with brutally cold onyx.
A sound-someone was clearing their throat.
They turned to star, having completely forgotten about the others.
Itachi sat in the middle; mothers to his right and father's to his left.
The two females seemed slightly happy with the transaction. Both women were proud of Sakura for standing up for herself. Mikoto stood.
"Sakura-san, I apologize for my son's rude behavior. I don't know where he gets it from; I know I raised him better than that." Mikoto's tone grew grave and dark near the end of her sentence as her gaze fell upon her misfit son. Sasuke subtly flinched.
Sakura sighed. She couldn't pretend it was alright and give a fake reassuring smile. She turned to look directly at Mikoto. "I understand Mrs. Uchiha and honestly that is really sweet of you. Unfortunately it still doesn't change the fact that I see your son as a jerk and I will continue viewing him that way until he apologizes."
She huffed and crossed her arms, turning away from the brooding Uchiha behind her.
Sasuke snorted, "Fat chance."
"Sasuke!" Mikoto warned angrily. She couldn't blame Sakura for how she felt.
Vein pop
Twitch, twitch
Fists tighten
Teeth clench
Growls
"Ugh bastard…"
"Excuse me?"
Sakura ignored him and began walking. Whilst everyone's gazes were on her angered expression; Sasuke's gaze fell lower. It slid to the sweet swell in her backside, beneath his shirt. He watched her ass sway as she stormed over towards the wall nearest to the door where the last of her things lay.
"If you will excuse me, I'm going to start to place my stuff in my room and unpack." As she spoke she lifted a black guitar case and turned, her gaze locked with Sasuke's. Although she didn't see it, recognition loomed in his eyes.
She was a musician. No wonder so took so much offense to his comment about music. Sakura sneered at him before entering her room on the opposite side of the apartment.
"Um, Kenji-kun, we should go help her." Mrs. Haruno urged as she noticed the angered expression on her husband's face.
"Would you like some extra assistance?" Both looked startled at the older Uchiha son, who slowly rose up off the couch.
"You want to help us?" Mr. Haruno asked a tad bit skeptical.
"You've got quiet a bit of things on your hands. The help, the faster Sakura-san can get settled in and everyone can go about their own ways. I'm sure you don't want to spend all day here like us. Besides I'm sure my mother and father would like a few words with my dear little brother."
"That is very kind of you Itachi-san. We would appreciate the help, thank you."
"Yeah, thank you," Mr. Haruno added with a grunt.
As they began to walk towards Sakura's room, Sasuke grabbed Itachi's shoulder and swung him around.
"Just what are you doing?"
"Getting the spot light off you and possibly securing your future romance with the pretty little flower in that room." Sasuke glared at Itachi's smirk.
"My future romance, are you kidding? I never knew you could tell a joke Itachi. It actually almost made me laugh. But I'm sure the day you make me laugh will be the day hell freezes over."
"A day I won't be looking forward to dear brother."
"Besides," Sasuke continued, ignoring the comment, "You know if anything occurred between her and I it would be far from romantic." Sasuke smirked until he felt the hefty weight of his brothers hand plague his shoulder.
"Trust me foolish little brother. I have a feeling that Sakura is going to give you a run for your money. Be careful if you don't want to fall. But…I'm pretty sure Kaa-san wants grandchildren." With that and a soft chuckle, Itachi left Sasuke standing baffled.
"Ahem," Charcoal eyes slowly rose to meet the stern, wrathful eyes of his mother.
Oh he was so screwed.
Well lovely's there you have it. I finished the second chapter finally and with plenty of time before i have to get ready for work. ^ ^ Sorry if there were any mistakes. But i hope you liked it.
Now, If you can figure it out, there were quiet a few things in this chapter that hinted towards the anime(tv show, not the manga). Two things in particular. The first person to name the two important ones and anything else they found in a review will...um win something. I'll PM or email you or something to tell you that you won. Then you can make up a character (female for Sasuke to...ahem mess with...or a male for sakura to eventually make our dear Sasuke-kun jealous with lol we gotta make him squirm just a little neh?)
Anyways besides that, this chapter was mainly a little bit of background info on some of the characters. Also there will be another plot line besides the ...well whatever the hell will happen between Sasuke and Sakura. There is some crazy pyschotic killer out there who is confused on which...well they aren't confused at the moment, but they are killing women. Oh lord...in other news there was some real interaction between Sasuke and Sakura. And unfortunately you will be seeing more of Karin. Now i have the utmost respect for authors who can make her seem really sweet underneath all of her bitchyness. And make her seem like she really does love Sasuke under it all. But after rereading the chapter where he stole Sasuke's sweaty and bloody shirt, and also the chapter in which Suigetsu mentions that she did something to sasuke...well i seem to loath her more. Ugh she creeps me out and to anyone who thinks she can be related to the younger Sakura...well eh i can see it in someways but damn, Sakura was never that bad in my opinion.
But i digress. I don't want to go into "i hate Karin" rant. I'll try to allude to the anime a little more and see if you guys catch on.
Now please review and you can send me emails if you like. They both make me happy! ^ ^ I love hearing what you guys have to say. It just encourages me to write more.
Remember who ever gets the allusions right just might have a character appearance in this story ^ ^. So on your mark, get ready, set,
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
