I decided to update within a few days of my last update because I wanted I love you all so much.

I was so pissed I had almost finished typing this chapter and my computer shut down, and I lost the whole story. So I had to start again, hopefully I remember everything that was in here.

Let's see if I can get this typed and uploaded before 2013. Wish me luck.

I would like to thank everyone who favourited, followed and alerted: Darkninjaz7, nommykinz, sakuraflowerstar, Coldwinters and janeyiah45.

I would also like to thank everyone who reviewed: scarlett700, Raikiri80, Shadow Wolf, BlueSakuraAC and .

Chapter 9 of: The Girl Next Door.

Sakura P.O.V

"Will you go out with me?" He said to me as he looked into my eyes. Did he really just say that? I think I heard right. I looked into his eyes, he wasn't joking. I closed my eyes and smiled, this is what I have been waiting for. "Yes." There I said it, it was finally out. "Are you serious?" He said looking a little shocked I said yes. "Why wouldn't I? I do like you very much." He smirked at me and put his forehead on my forehead. "You have no idea how long I have wanted you to say that." He leaned his head in and gave me another quick kiss. "So what does this mean for us now?" I asked a little confused. "Well it means that I'm your boyfriend and you're my girlfriend." He stated bluntly. "So, you're my boyfriend?" I questioned. "Yep, got a problem with that?" He shot straight back at me. "No, no. I'm happy." I said giving him a big grin.

"We have to get ready to go to Naruto's now. I have to go and get ready." Sasuke came up to me and gave me a hug and kissed my forehead. I felt a bit sad that he had to go back home. Even if his house was next door and I could still see him. We went through a lot today. From going to see my dad to finally becoming boyfriend and girlfriend. "Cheer up; I'm only going next door." He said as he held my chin. "I'll be back in 30 minutes, plus you will still be able to see me." I pouted and Sasuke planted another kiss on my lips.

He walked out of my room and out the front door. So I decided to get ready, I looked in my wardrobe a bit and didn't really know what to wear, so I just had a shower first.

I got out of the shower and had just finished doing my hair, it was straight that flicked out at the end. What am I going to wear? I have no idea. I know I'll ask Sasuke what he is going wear; I opened my window and yelled out to Sasuke. "Hey, what are you going to wear? I don't know what I want to wear, and I want to match you." He appeared in his window and said "I am wearing a white shirt, black tie and black pants." I nodded. "Ok, cool, I'll be down ready in 15 minutes." I went to my wardrobe and had another look. Yep, I found it! I pulled out a black dress. It had long lace arms that you could see my skin under. The slip that was under the dress stopped just above my knees, with the lace over the top. I put it on and it was defiantly the right choice. I put on 6 inch white pumps, and matched it with a white clutch purse.

I put a little make up on, just a little bit foundation, mascara and a bright red lip. I looked at myself in the mirror and I approved of the outfit. Let's just see what Sasuke thinks about it.

Sasuke came over 20 minutes after I had last talked to him; He probably thought I wouldn't be ready. I was standing at the top stairs when he came through the front door. I started my descent down the stairs my right hand gliding down the railing as I watched Sasuke; he just stood there watching me with this smile on his face. "You look beautiful as always." I felt a blush rise in my cheeks. "Thanks, I was going for that. Shall we go now boyfriend?" I have always wanted to say that and now I can. "I have always wanted to hear you say that." Sasuke said as he looped his arm like a handle of a tea pot. "Well I guess you're lucky because I have always wanted to say that." I smiled as I hooked my arm through the loop he made and we left to go to the get together.

Sasuke P.O.V

We arrive just before Naruto's because there were a lot of cars parked out the front of his house. I got out of the car and walked around to the other side, opened the door on her side while extending my hand for her to take. "A gentleman, I like you even more now." She said as she took my hand, while I helped her out of the car. "You aint seen nothing yet." She just smiled as we started to walk up to Naruto's house. We got to the front of Naruto's house and looked at all the amount of people just out the front. We got closer to the door and it looked like almost everyone in our year was here, the music was blaring and you could tell that most of the people had already started to drink or some who were already drunk.

When we got in his house we looked around, through the dancing and swaying people Sakura spotted Ino and Hinata standing in the corner. "I'm going to go and talk to Ino and Hinata, you go find Naruto or something I'll be fine." She got up on her tippy toes and gave me a peck on the cheek. "Ok, but if you need me come and find me." I yelled over the loud noisy music. She turned around and moved through the people to get to her friends. I looked over at Ino and Hinata they were looking at me a bit shocked, probably because of the little kiss Sakura gave me. When Sakura reached them, they asked her a question while pointing at me. Sakura said something back to them, and then I knew that they must have asked about us because Ino cracked a huge smile and started jumping up and down.

Ok now to find Naruto, it should be too hard you can hear him before you can see him even with this blaring music. I went to start looking for Naruto. I didn't see the person following me waiting for the right time to jump me. I looked left and right for Naruto but there was no sign, so I started to think of where he would be. As I stood there the person that was hiding in the shadows took this as an opportunity to jump me.

All of a sudden I felt this thing hanging off my arm, I looked down and there she was an ugly red headed slut.

"Hey Sasuke-kun, you and me should go out because you are gorgeous and we all know I'm gorgeous. So it only makes since for two people as good looking as us to get together. So what do you say?" She said not letting go out my arm as I tried to yank it free from her grasp. "You want to know what I think; I think that a pretty face is nothing if you have an ugly heart. And Karin you have the ugliest heart I have even seen." She looked up at me with a hurt expression and stormed away in a huff.

"LET'S PARTY!" I heard of everyone. I guess I have just found Naruto! I never would have guessed he was in the kitchen having a ramen eating contest with Choji. NOT! Typical Naruto. "Hey Teme, wanna have a drink with me?" He yelled at me, not because the music was loud but because that is just how he is. "Nah I can't I gotta drive." I saw him frown at me. "Jeez Teme, your no fun." We walked out to the living room that was now the dance floor. I saw Sakura sit standing in the corner with Ino and Hinata. Ino said something to her and nodded her head towards my direction, while Sakura turned around. She looked at me and gave me a one of those waves where you don't move your arm or your hand just your fingers. I gave a little wave of my hand back at her. Naruto saw this action and gave me a nudge. "Hey, teme have you asked her out yet? Tonight's to the night, probably the only chance you're gonna get before some other guy swipes her up." Jeez, Naruto you can talk a lot. "Actually I already asked her out before we came here." I said to him putting my arm behind my head giving it a scratch. I saw his eyes go wide; he turned his very slowly to look at me, with a massive grin on his face.

"Sasuke you sly dog, I didn't know you had it in you." He congratulated me with a pat on the shoulder. "Yeah, I really have you to thank Naruto. I took your advice that you gave me the other day." He gave a chuckle "So you finally take my advice, it's about time! I'm going to go over and talk to Hinata, you gonna come?" He said as he looked over to his girlfriend and I looked at mine. "In a second, I'm gonna go and get a drink, tell Sakura for me?" He nodded at me. I turned around to walk back into the kitchen to get a drink out of the fridge. Little did I know that the same someone that pounced on me before was gonna try it again.

Sakura P.O.V

Naruto came walking over from the kitchen area, that's weird I could have sworn Naruto was with Sasuke. Where did he go? Naruto put his arm around Hinata's waist making her blush as red as a tomato. "Hey Naruto where is Sasuke?" Something didn't feel right, he was here a second ago and now he isn't. "Oh yeah, he told me to tell you he went to get a drink from the kitchen." Oh that makes sense, but it still didn't help with this feeling in the pit of my stomach. "I'm going to get a drink too." I have to make sure that he is ok.

I made my way through the crowd of dancing and drunk people, pushing past the last few people to turn into the kitchen. I stopped in my tracks, my breath hitched in my throat; I think my heart may have stopped for a few seconds as well. What I saw in front of me made my blood run cold through my veins, at first I thought it was someone else but I knew it. The person standing in front of me was definitely Sasuke; he was kissing the school slut Karin. Sasuke pushed her off him giving her a death glare. "What the hell was that for?" He yelled. I stepped back and leaned on a bench that was in the kitchen causing a few beer bottles to fall off the counter. His head turned and spotted me, I could feel tears welling up in my eyes. I turned around and started to run away. I heard Sasuke yell after me but I didn't turn around. Could this day get any worse? First of all it's the one year anniversary of my father's death, and now Sasuke was kissing another girl after asking me out a few hours before. What else could happen? Just like my mum said bad things always happen in three's. There has to be something else coming.

I stopped for a second when I got to the patio to take my shoes off; it is very hard to run in heels. I take another second to wipe some of the tears that have spilled out of my eyes. "SAKURA!" I heard Sasuke yell out to me again. "Believe me, I didn't kiss her, she jumped me. I would never do anything to hurt you. You believe me don't you?" He had an apologetic look in his eyes. I do believe that he would cheat on me but I saw it with my own eyes. I just need to get away for a little bit.

"Just go away Sasuke; I don't want to hear any of it." I have my shoes in my hand, turn my body away so I'm not facing him and move my legs not slow either. I run away from him, not bothering to look where I'm going I just need to get away. I hear this loud noise it sounds like a horn coming from the left side of me. I look to the left to see what it is but I have blurred vision because of all the tears, I see two lights coming straight towards me. "SAKURA WATCH OUT!" I hear over the top of the horn. I feel an impact on my left side and all I feel is pain. I get pushed from where I was standing and now am lying on the road.

Now it occurs to me those two lights where head lights of a car. "Somebody call an ambulance!"

Damn missed it by half an hour! Would have made it in time if my stupid computer hadn't of crashed and deleted the whole chapter! GRRR! But anyway HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ok, so I agree the ending was a bit crap but oh well. You gotta live with it. I'll do my best to update within the next few days. But no promises.

I hope everyone has the best year ever! I know I certainty will, I get to plan Charlie's 1st birthday!

See ya. Don't forget to review please!
