"Can we leave now?" Sarah whispered to Kimmy. "Are you guys going to come with us to the after party?" Sarah was preparing to decline but before she could she heard Itachi say, "Of course we are."
"Perfect! I'll gather up the rest of the squad" Kimmy said as she went in the direction of their friends. "I don't want to go." Sarah said without looking at him. "Why are you in such a rush to have that unpleasant conversation? Enjoy your freedom while you can, you will be on a short leash after tonight."
"Let's thank Jashin for a good night!" Hidan said as they headed out, "And it's not even over yet!"
Upon arrival Hidan once again grabbed Ana and dragged her to the dance floor. Sarah realized with relief that Kisame was not there. "I'm not dancing with you this time, Sasori." Kimmy said before he could ask. Not a fan of his own dancing, he did not protest. "Can we talk about it now, please?" Itachi took a deep breath; she didn't wait for him to reply. "How did you know?" When he didn't reply she repeated her question louder, they got a few glances from nearby partygoers. He kept his tone steady and emotionless. "Do you really think I couldn't see it in your eyes? Do you think I couldn't smell him on our bed sheets? Smell him on you?" She avoided eye contact. "Is that it? You were dying to have this conversation. What else do you want to know? How long have I known? Since the very first time. Why didn't I say anything? What was I supposed to say? Kindly ask you to stop?"
"What do you think they are talking about?" Kimmy asked Sasori. "Nothing that really concerns us, I just hope they don't ruin this night for the rest of us."
"I just hate it when you're gone! And its not like you give me much affection when you are here."
"I'm sorry, I'll just stop being a ninja and stop being myself to cater to all of your wants."
"I don't want you to stop being you, I just want you to be you and be a boyfriend at the same time, I think that's a reasonable request."
"Look at them fighting over there. Told you they weren't going to make it." Hidan stopped breaking it down when he noticed them bickering in the corner. "That doesn't mean anything! All couples fight!"
"We don't fight." Hidan smiled, "We really shall love in Jashin forever."
Itachi and Sarah announced that they were going to leave early. Itachi was holding Sarah's hand as if nothing was wrong, but everyone in that room knew that he wasn't holding it out of love. They left without offering any type of explanation.
"Why'd they leave early?" Ana asked. "Either they want private couple time for prom night, or they are going to scream at each other all night, and it's probably that latter. We can still have a nice night, though." Sasori said, clearly annoyed that night seemed to revolve around the two of them. "Is it possible to have a nice night, without Sarah and Itachi screaming at each other in the background?" Hidan laughed and Ana shook her head.
