Chapter 14
Konoha, washed over by the star lit night. It curtained a silence of stillness over the city, calming the minds. Lights kept dim, indicating the time for the mass to be in slumbering sleep.
Except in a certain room, laid a man and his Angel. A brightly lit room, light was kept from escaping due to the closed layers of velvet drapes. Keeping their moment …
… private.
"Sasuke-kun." The slurring of a drunken angel echoed against the walls. A small, feminine body crawled, slithered a torturous motion over the broad man. Moving her bottom around, she tried to find a comfortable position. Her core left a sleek trail on his skin.
Both bodies were bare to each other naked eyes. Well, the obsidian ones were but the emeralds hidden under the lids from her distorted conscious.
"Mmmn…" She mewed in to his ears. Crouching over his chest, she teases his prodded buds with her own nipples. Hand griped his hair tight. The other played with the base of his neck.
Sasuke wasn't just laying still, his hands wouldn't let him. Men. It was only natural. Fingertips ran up and down the pair of soft, smooth thighs that were hugging his sides. Trying his best to keep his mind clear and steady or he wouldn't know what he would do to the girl.
"Thank you …" Removing her hand from his neck, turning it around—palm up to run it lightly down his chest. Letting the sharp edges of the lovely ring marked lines on his skin.
"Ugh…" Maybe letting her play around was a bad idea. The feeling between his legs was too painful, far more unbearable than before.
Lightly, messily, Sakura began to nibble tiny parts of his neck, from the ear to the shoulder. It was quite tickling due to her inexperience. All was done while her hand ran frantically about his chisel chest. Uneven breaths released from her daring touch. A chuckle, after he gained composure. This 'innocent' Angel sure learned a thing or two. Not that he was complaining. Sasuke simply hesitated on how to explain this to her once the toxic in her body had cleared up. In his mind, images of her face blushed a thousand shades of red to purple flashed by.
Emerged from hiding in his neck, she leveled on top. Noses were tapping, lips hovering. He had to hold her fragile waist to prevent the body from slouching over.
Leaning down again to connect their lips together, she slyly licked his lips, trying to imitate his actions. The same actions that made her mind wild. Slowly, feelings poured into the kiss. Sakura held on to the side of his face as if it would slip away from her, kissing him with all her might. Even when her lungs were crying for air, Sakura continued her sloppy wet kiss, tasting this man.
Finally, their passionate kiss ended due to her swelling head. But, she still kept her hold on his jaw.
"Sasuke-kun … Thank you … for everything … I'm sorry." He was silent while listening to her drunken words.
"I've been a nuisance to you. I couldn't do anything to ease your pain." Tears slowly blurred her green emerald orbs. "Who am I kidding? I'm the worst Angel ever. I can't do anything right. You even have to take care of me." She dropped her face right on his side, wetting his cheek with her tears.
Amused. "Sakura." Wanting to calm this tearful girl, but all he knew and did was running his hand, massaging her back, comforting her with his silent touch. He wasn't sure if it was helping her or not, but it just made him more aroused. Painfully aroused. He didn't want it to be that way but his hormone wouldn't stay put.
Tightly hugging his head, their body meshed. Sasuke felt like he was seeing stars as one of her leg kicked up to the side and smacked his throbbing staff hard. Hands fisted, clutched, and turned the knuckles white on her back. His muscle relaxed, returned his interest to the sweet body on top.
Suddenly, a piercing cry wailed in to his ear, "There's no way ever … am I going to escape the title of an apprentice! Wahhh…!" It woke him from his trance of rocking her body with his own.
"!?" The girl flabbergasted Sasuke. She was now tearing up like an actual kid wanting her treats.
"Woa …Sakura …calm..." He sat up with the pink crying blob in his lap. Letting her played around was a bad idea. Now how was he going to…damn it. He had no clue on how to mend a crying girl. "Uh … um ... well..." Unable to form any words of comfort to calm down this annoying waling machine, Sasuke gave up.
"I couldn't even think of a decent gift to give you … Ino-chan had to help me … and I don't even know what to do is right. Wah!" Sakura continued to tear her eyes soaked.
Ino. So, that woman was the center of it all. All this troubles, he knew it. She filled his innocent Angel with her contaminated mind.
"Offp." From a wailing crying baby, Sakura gave him another surprise by aggressively pushed him back on the bed in a quick moment.
"And now there this... this … disturbing feeling bubbling from the pit of my stomach … I can't get rid of it … nor ignoring it..." Gripping his shoulders tight, Sakura straightened out her arms to stare down at him in the eyes with her blazing green orbs. "It's all because of you! … Whenever you're near … it just won't stop!"
Sasuke's mind was out of the window along side with his conscience. His personal note to self, don't ever get this Angel drunk … ever!
"And now my head hurts … and I don't know why!" She dropped her head. Luckily, to prevent another bruise, Sasuke skid his head to the side. The rest of what she about to say was muffled into the mattress. She started to pound nonstop into the bed. Muffling. "Ay knu et… tis as nutin gud…" [translation: I knew it…this was nothing good.]
"!" Swiftly, he swapped their position. Sasuke trapped the girl under him. The tiny body startled by his rough action. Her eyes opened up to see a scary pair of darkness, fogged.
Blink blink.
Kiss. Sasuke swoon down to give the dazed girl a soft peck on the lips to calm her down. It was aimed to make her pay attention to what he about to say.
"Sakura …" Lowering his head next to her ear. "I don't need anything." He held her body tight.
.
.
.
"Just you."
Bright emeralds opened wide.
"S-sa-sasuke-k-kun…" She cried again but this time the sound was muffled by his kiss. Soft, but needy. Passionate with all the longing.
'Back to square one.'Sasuke thought in his mind, disappointments filled his head. He really couldn't … Oh well. Just because of her. His angel. All his. He could wait. Surely he could wait. Hopefully, it wouldn't be long … really. It had better not be long.
o-o-o-o-o
o-o-o-o-o
"Hey, how long it is until our next stop?"
"Four hours."
"…"
"What? Stop staring it's annoying."
"Did you really need that blonde wig?"
"…Yes … *eyes glancing*… maybe…"
"…"
o-o-o-o-o
"Heh heh heh."
What?
"So this is the girl?"
Who?
S-stop…
Why can't I move?
What is this?
"Haruno."
"Such a pity."
Don't touch me.
"Com'on we have to get rid of her quick."
"Aw. Can't we play a bit."
N-nooo…
"She's a Haruno …
Haruno
Ha
Ru
No
[…]
Lightly tapping. "Sakura."
… Haruno.
Shaking the shoulders. "Sakura!"
… Haruno.
Slapping the cheeks, "Sakura!"
"Kyaah!"
Punch.
"?" Green orbs suddenly opened by the loud thud. Quickly scanning her tearing eyes around, she only saw a pair of feet pointed upward on the side. "Sasuke-kun!" Sakura quickly moved to the side of the bed where she had unintentionally knocked the poor man straight off on to the hard cold floor.
"Sakura…" He mumbled as the girl pulled him back on the bed. "What did I do wrong to you to get this?" Grabbing his chin, his mind was daze by the flashing hit.
"I'm sorry Sasuke-kun. I don't know what happened." She carefully examined his jaw. Unknowing the state they were in. "Why did you slap my face while I was asleep? Hmp. It was kinna normal for me to react."
'You were the one fidgeting around like a person with a seizure ... how can I not wake you up?'
"Oooh… I did hit you really hard. Does it hurt a lot?"
Like helz, he was going admit a punch from the girl gave him this intense pain. "No." Ignoring the pain, he realized their position with her nude body innocently hovering over him. Hand grabbing her butt cheeks, he leaned in. "But then again … it's a little sting … How about …" His lips moved closer to the girl.
"!?" Finally aware, "Eeeekkk!" Her arms pushed his face away along with his hands from her bare bottom. 'What? How? Wah …' Sakura tried to search her aching mind for the reminiscence of last night. "Sa-sasuke-kun…" Her head pounded with aching pain.
"Sakura." Wedging his brows together to give an expression Sakura could only describe as 'pouting'. 'Cute?'
"Yes."
"You have no idea what happened last night, huh?" His weird 'pouting' expression turned straight into a mischievously playful one.
Blush.
"Want me to show you all over again." He dragged each word along her ear, ignoring her protesting push.
Blush.
He was right. She did blush an episode of red shades. Amused. "I don't care if you forget everything about last night." He turned her body around to hug her from under the arms. Propping her to sit on his lap, he placed his chin on her shoulder, lightly taking in her unforgettable scent. Seizing her left hand, "But you better not forget about this." Holding up the finger with the cherish gift, the first one he had ever give to anyone.
"Sasuke-kun." Sakura eyes were tearing up again. "How could I?" She held his callused hand; intertwined with hers against the place where her heart was located.
It was beating a rapid movement.
"Hn." He dug his nose deeper into her pink locks.
The two continued to stay in their comforting position, pushing the previous event that interrupted their slumber behind deep in their mind.
[…]
"What time is it?"
"Hn."
"Sasuke-kun." She nudged him.
"Find it out by yourself."
"I can't if you're holding my head like this."
He let go. "Hn." Sasuke turned around to cover his head under the pillow.
Seeing the clock on the wall, "Wah. It's near noon already?" about to jump out but a pair of hands prevented her from escaping.
"..."
"Sasuke-kun!?" She protested against the lazy man who returned his strong hold on her, keeping them both under the layer of fluffy comforter, intimately molded in to each other warmth.
o-o-o-o-o
Vrrmmm Vrmmm …
"Uhh …" A small pale hand moved lazily over the wooden floor from the low leveled bed, searching.
Vrrmmm Vrrmm…
The tiny mobile object frantically vibrated its annoying alarm.
"Uhg." Finally, she reached the annoying pest thing.
"Hello?" Hinata's voice weakly came out, "!?" Suddenly shot up from her sheepishly position, poor girl threw her boyfriend's body over the side. The sleeping fox didn't even give a slight motion of waking up.
"N-Neji-nii! Y-you're home already?" Hinata run her hand through her hair to grip her messy black lock.
"Me…? …I-I'm … Uh…"
[...]
"Stop stuttering…I know too well where you are." Neji annoying leaned on the pole and waited for the coming car. "I'll be at the main house by late noon. It's better if you show up too." Neji shut his phone off without hearing his sister's response.
"Neji. Won't you stop bullying your sis?" A sharp feminine voice made his head turn. A woman now with a change of attire, wearing a light pink summer dress, with a short bob black wig, made her way toward him.
"Cheh." Looking around, Neji asked, "Where's Lee?"
Annoyed. "He's explaining the joy of youth to the kid in the jumpsuit over there." Her head leaned to the side.
"Well the car is here. Go get him before someone yells pedophile again."
The heels loudly clicked away. The woman mumbled… 'I'm your guard not your maid. Such an ass.'
Ignoring the stinging words, Neji was the first to enter the coming limo.
"Ow Ow Ow … Tenten … let me go… Ow Ow Ow …"
"Hmp." Tenten dragged the man in the lime green shirt toward the open door, pushed him in before entering herself.
The limo gallantly drove away.
[...]
"…" Dropping the phone on her lap, Hinata turned toward the mumbling body. Hand ran down the happy-go-lucky face.
"Naruto-kun, Neji-nii is home." She leaned down to whisper in his ear.
In a flashing moment, Naruto sat up from his deep sleep.
"Fucking ... $%^%#*!#$! Alert the Teme!"
[...]
"Sakura …"
"Hmm?"
"Would you stop picking on my hair?"
Ignored. "Really … how do you get your hair like this?"
"…"
These two, they were not getting out of bed anytime soon. Nope. It was a lazy Sunday.
o-o-o-o-o
As the Sunday noon blasting its heat over the city, bright blue sky marked a beautiful day. It was peaceful at the Hyuuga's manor. Until…
"Everyone! Quickly. The young master will be home any minute now. C'mon."
"Clean that up."
"Y-yes Sir."
An old man with a stern face, wearing a butler tuxedo hastily dashed through the house to get it prepared for the return of Neji Hyuuga, the next heir of the Hyuuga clan.
"Oh. He's here." A maid was running in from the front entrance after noticing the car driving in, making its way toward the steps of the grand mansion.
"Get ready!" At the head butler's signal, the maids lined themselves up along the corridor of the steps, awaiting the arrival of their young master.
[Inside the car]
"Ahhaa … oh look. They're doing it again. I'm feeling like I'm in one of those characters in mangas. Ahahaa."
"Shut it Lee."
[…]
"Welcome home, Young Master." They all said in unison while keeping their head bowed.
Stepping out of the opened limo, one by one, its passengers were standing on the paved ground.
Twitch. "Really. Working for you doesn't get bored at all Neji." Tenten gave a mocking tone to the ponytail man, before she walked up the step with a maid following behind.
"Tche." He ignored her sarcasm, and made his way up the steps with the head butler behind. "Souji…"
"Yes. Young master."
"You never really listen to what I want. Do you?"
"I'm sorry Young Master but it's the rule in the servant guidebook for us."
Neji stopped midway, turning around to the man with his head kept low. "Get rid of it then… Annoys the shit out of me." He mumbled the last part before walking away. "Is my father home?"
"He is golfing with the head of Rouge' company and a few fellow old friends."
"…" About to continue his question but Souji was ahead.
"Madame is out for a conference in Seoul with the Lady group. And …"
"I know where my sister is." They continued their journey through the long hallway.
Mean while…
"Hello, there. I haven't seen you. What's your name?" Lee was having fun with the new young maid.
"I'm M-miako…"
"Ahh… Young fair … Miako… Let's us talk about your youthful life."
o-o-o-o-o
o-o-o-o
"Sakura."
"Sasuke-kun."
"…"
Blink.
"Put the bucket down."
"You. P-put the hose down first."
"Hn."
Gripping hard on to her dear bucket of soapy water, it was her only lifeline now.
"You know … you only have one shot while I have this hose full of water. Right?"
Sakura secretly moved aside. Eyes still focused on the man.
"I asked you to help me hose the place clean. Not getting me wet with water."
"Hn." He walked the opposite way of her. The two were making an invisible circle.
Smirk. "Just helping." He was looking at the girl.
Sakura, standing on the side, was wearing a simple light tee shirt and short, bare feet from her idea of a Sunday clean up.
Sasuke, blazed from the heat, was topless to let his bare chest tanned from the noon sun, added his dark cargo shorts. "I also have a longer range shot too. So why don't you just be a good girl and …" Pointed the hose at her.
"Well you wouldn't want this cleaning water on you… Would you Sasuke-kun? It'll stain your skin for a while." She stuck out her tongue at the man. "So be nice." She prepared the bucket, ready to splash it his way.
"I would if you didn't drag me out here."
"Why are you being all lazy now?"
"It's Sunday for Pete's sake."
"So!?"
"Hn."
Riing Riiinnnng.
Two heads turned toward the ringing sound.
"Sakura, since you're closer to the door. Get the phone on the counter for me … please." Knowing how much the one word affect the girl, he slyly masked his intention.
"Okay." She immediately put down the bucket to dash inside.
Riing Riiiiiiinnnng.
'Ah. Still my innocent angel.'He inwardly laughed at the foolish girl. Making his way to the bucket then kicked it over, spilling the highly acidic soapy water on to the grass. 'There go another patch of grass.'
"Aw … Sasuke-kun. It stops ringing." She stopped midway to see Sasuke stood, looking down, with one of his leg on the tipped bucket, his other hand was still holding the hose.
Shakily, she held his phone out. "D-Don't you d-dare. I have your phone."
"Cheh." Evilly smirking at the girl, he raised the hose at her. "I can always buy new ones. Hm… well you need one too. So … it's a good thing. Let's finish it off." About to release the water, but he was stopped.
"Sas-!" Riinnng riinng. "…?"
"Hn." Dropping the hose to the side as indication of truce to Sakura, he walked over the grab the annoying thing that always seemed to ruin his fun.
"What?" Sasuke irritatingly answered the phone while Sakura scooted somewhere else.
-"Uchiha."—
His brows burrowed, making lines on his fore head. "Hyuuga. Haven't heard from you for a while. Still enjoying the freezing cold in Alaska?"
- Irritated grumbling heard over the phone. "I've arrived home and wondering if you would gladly join a little gathering tonight at the Hyuuga manor." –
Smirk. "Hn."
- "It's a little hast. But I hope to see you along with your acquaintances that will be contacted momentarily. I do feel the need to contact you myself." -
Making jolly steps toward the balcony railing, Sasuke leaned on it. "For?" Mocking the man.
o-o-o-o-o
Gripping his phone at Sasuke's one word question, "Gathering. Like I said before. But most importantly launching Hyuuga new project."
-"…"-
"You know. My preparation as a … heir." It was Neji's turn to shine victory.
-"Hn. I wouldn't dare to miss it."- Sasuke's voice filled with venoms.
Before the line disconnected, Neji could hear a girl's scream over the line with the sound of plashing water.
'What?!' He stared at the tiny cubicle digital object.
"Neji-nii!"
At the sound of his sister's voice, he turned around to encounter a light hug from the girl.
"I'm so happy to see you." Hinata said as she released her brother.
"Really. Didn't sound like it this morning." He sneered at his sister.
Blush.
Rustling her hair, "Got you something." He took out a small jewelry box.
"Thank you. Nii."
Knock knock.
"Tenten-chan." Hinata greeted the woman, still covering her hair under the black bob wig, but in a different suit. It was a white tuck-in shirt with a blue pencil skirt.
"Miss Hinata." The woman lightly nodded her head. "Sorry to interrupt your sibling reunion. But …" She motioned a secretive glance at the man.
Understood, "Ah. I'm s-sorry," Hinata made her way to walk out.
"Hey." Neji called his sister back for a second. "There will be a gathering tonight. Here."
"W-what?" She didn't really register his word.
"So. Be prepared."
"D-did … you inform this to M-mom and D-dad?"
"I am now. So you can go play dress up." He shooed her away.
"?!" Before she knew it, Tenten had already walked her out.
Staring at the closed door, she was baffled at her what her brother had up his mind.
[…]
"I still can't believe how difference it is between your sister and you." Tenten walked closer to his desk as she glanced around the room, suspiciously.
"My room is not wired Tenten."
Ignored. "She's so quiet, calm, nice... sweet ... and very very 'polite' ... and there's... you ... hm." Continued her walk around his room, she kept on mocking him. "A bit disappointing."
Twitch.
"I guess it is safe."
"There's nothing dangerous about my office."
"Hey, you can't always be sure ... who knows. That gardener out there looked hmm ... creepy ... to me." She peeped through the large French window.
"It's because you stepped on his newly grown patch of seedling."
"It was an accident. The temperature here is too hot. It's scarier than the sun in Cali. I still prefer somewhere cooler. Alaska is nicer. I didn't even get a chance to say bye to the polar bears." She turned around, arms crossing over her chest.
"It's because you're always hiding under those hideous wigs."
"Hyuuga. I have weapons hiding everywhere under these layers ... and I'm not afraid to use them." She glared at him. 'How dare he?'
[…]
"Miss Hinata."
"Mr. Lee."
"Ha. How many times do I have to correct you? Calling me Mr. Lee just ruins my youthful moment." Lee smiled brightly at the girl as he walked closer carrying a stack of folder.
"Lee. How w-was your time in A-alaska?" A smile sweetly shined.
"Brr… Cold. But a good place to train the mind." He winked.
"Ah."
"Well gotta get to work. I'll see you later." Then he too, disappeared behind the door.
'What are they really up to?'She let out a long sigh. 'Neji…' Vrrmm vrmmm…"Naru-kun." Answered the phone quickly, Hinata happily greeted the caller.
-"Thanks Kami. You're still alive."—
"Naru. What are talking about? Don't be talking like that to Neji-nii."
-"Jk'in Jk'in… Are you good for lunch?" -
"How can you still want to eat after all that drinking?"
Walking away as she continued her endless conversation with the fox boy. Whatever going on behind the closed door would soon to be revealed.
o-o-o-o-o
"Pffff …pfff….."
"It's not funny!"
Sakura was kneeling on the grass area, arms crossed to hide her drenching wet body, soaked to the skin.
While Sasuke was squatting near the railing, muffling, holding back a hard laugh at the klutzy girl. He couldn't lose his cool like that. The little Angel who tried to attack him with a hose, only to have the water blasted out forcefully over her. Sweet nostalgia, just like before, only this time the girl got proper coverings over her sweet twins. Adding agony to the man but he still couldn't help it from looking. She was just too ... cute.
Face pouted with anger, reaching her hand out to hold the hose pointing at the man still with his head down. Cold water blasted with extra force straight at Sasuke, causing him to tip over, equally drenched wet. [yum!]
"Ha!" Sakura stood up uncaring about her state and mocked the man of his dazed condition.
Butt flatted on the grass, Sasuke looked up behind his wet bang at the laughing girl. Drenched from the head, her shirt clung to her body from the humid air, tightly hugged her curve, showing him the cute little pink garment.
"Hn." Grumpily standing up, he threw the useless phone on the ground, not even checking if it worked or not.
Noticing the intense dark auras fuming from the man, she backed away. "Ha … ahaa …You looked like you need some … calming … Oh looks ... It's noon …You must be hungry…" Slowly backing away further. "… I-I'll go make lunch now … I-it won't be lo…eeek."
Grab.
"Lunch. Good idea. You'll do... as the main dish." His voice whispered.
"Sasuke-kun!" The girl whimpered from the rough hold. Forcibly lifted the girl over his shoulder, he walked toward the house.
Kicking about, trying to get the man to stop. "Sasuke-kun it was only for fun."
"Hn."
Sasuke walked up the one-step into his living room, uncaring about the watery mess they made.
"W-wa—it… We're … the sofa…" Sakura fidgeted while he flopped her on to the expensive furniture.
"Don't care." His lips wasted no time latching itself on to hers while spreading her legs with his one knee between her thighs. Feeling their sodden skin as his hand brushed behind her back pushing it, pressed to his chest.
"Saa…ahh…s…ahh…" Sakura softly moaned her desired as she felt fingers skipping a dance upon her legs. Running a long agonizing stroke along her inner thigh, it pressed on her clothed core. Drenched, not just because of the water, [if you know what I mean]
Small hands pushed on his shoulder. Her head moved further out from the nonstop kisses, not able to keep up any more. Her body shook with feelings.
"What's wrong now…?" He began his torturous words, whispering on to her skin. Taking a hand from her thigh, pushing her shirt above the perking sweets he loves so much. "You were so …" Lick. "Daring last night."
Suck.
Playing with the exposed flesh reveal by her pink bra, Sasuke loved it more. How the little garment was pushing her breasts up, making it looked as if the rosy buds would spill any moment.
"Undressing me like this." His hand moved her fingers across his chest so she could feel his burning skin.
"Climbing on me."
Kiss
"Kissing me. Biting me …"
"S-stop…"
Smirk. "Touching me…"
Blush … "I … I did not … You're p-playing with me …" She whimpered each word as the man continued to leave his marks on her skin. "Y-you're … it's a j-joke… you-r-re playi-ing with me-e again…" She bit her finger to hold out a moan when his hand let hers go to run it under the waistband of her shorts, tickling the patch of skin above.
"You think so?"
Eyes closed shut. Hands were pushing, gripping his bare shoulders.
"Who got drunk last night, hn?" He returned his face up to tap his nose against hers.
Green eyes shot opened."?!"
Raising his eyes brow, he taunted her with his smirk. She pouted her face with the blushing cheeks."I … I … I …" Her expression amused Sasuke with the frustrating look, trying to remember her actions the previous night.
"How about we continue…" Both hands went to pull her soaked clingy shirt off her skin. Shivered at the lack of cover, Sakura enveloped herself within Sasuke's warmth. "…Where we left off."
Turning his body to rest comfortably against the sofa, Sasuke pulled the girl over his laps.
"So…" Fingers played with the clasp of her bra. "How should we start?"
Blush… Her face hid in the crooks of his neck.
Whispering, "Sa … Sasuke-kun… t-there's a C-cupid …. Sta-aring at u-us…." Secretly, her finger pointed toward the open glass door.
'Hn. Cupid?'
Sasuke was a bit staggered in place by Sakura's little cruel joke. Thinking this little girl just wanted to mess with him. Why would a cupid, the Angel of Love be doing anywhere near him?
"Hn. Don't care." Continued his prancing fingers upon her skin, it was slippery from the residue of the detergent liquid when she made soapy water.
"?" Sakura gripped his shoulders harder at his touch. Wanting so badly for him to believe but the man was too occupied with his angel in his lap, she attempted to stop his hands from removing her pink bra, not letting him have his way until he listen to her.
Noticing how much she really wanted to him to believe. Frustrated, his hand crumbled behind her back, he let out a long heave. It didn't seem like she was really joking.
"Where is he?" His whispering was low and almost inaudible but she got every words.
"Floating by back door." She leaned in, to closely whisper, letting her lips brushed against his ear lob.
Lounging on his dampened sofa with an angel on his laps, whispering in to his ear was really distracting. But his curiosity was heightened.
Turn.
"D-don't."
He stopped.
"You can't see him. Don't let him know you can tell he's there." Sakura held out her hand to cup his face, digging her nose deeper in to his neck. Lips teasingly tickled his skin. Moving her body up further against him, her core made a naughty move by flicking a light stroke up his slowly very hard noticeable need. Clothed breasts were taunting the sensitive patch of skin on his chest.
"Ugh…" A soft groan was emitted from his lips. He tried his hardest to keep his mind clear. "What the helz, Sakura?" Keeping his eyes closed, head faced the ceiling, and grunting his lips.
"Cupids can't detect Angels on assignments. Especially me, since I'm practically human. He's probably working near. Dropping by randomly. They're known to be a bit meddlesome and playful…" Moving her head further behind his neck to steal a glance at the intruder behind his pointy back hair, she pouted to know the Cupid was 'still there.'
Sakura squint her nose at the sight of the tiny wings baby like Angel floating. Partially naked with a clothe covering his essential. Back wielding the Love Arrows and the Heart Bow. Oh how she really 'disliked' the little thing.
To the Cupid's point of view, there was a very loving couple cuddling in front of him. He just couldn't help it but to stealing glances at their loving moment. Hey! He was the messenger of love. It was hard to stop. These two lovers were madly in love, heatedly in love to be embracing in a position like that. Limps intertwined. Heads burrow. Arms tightly held on to each other. Then his eyes caught something interesting. On the man's hand was a red string … that not only connected to the girl in his embrace but … both of their red strings were also connected in the same direction to somewhere else … The Cupid was utterly confused.
The emerald eyes stole glimpses. Sakura thought it was strange to see the Cupid continued to stay afloat there with a puzzled look on his face.
"…By playful. I mean tricks. Mean ones. You would know if you tended after them before."
"Ahh…" Whatever Sakura had just said to him, not a single word registered his mind. Every nerve on his body was focused toward the 'urge' this cruel girl was creating by fidgeting above his ... 'Damn.'
Hands, fingers … gripped hard on the sofa seat.
His eyes opened to look at the reflection of the garden from the big flat screen hanging on the wall. "Not seeing anything." His whisper came out hard and raspy. Almost wanting to disbelieve but being with this girl … he was starting to have second doubt on things. A lot of things.
"Cause I told you already. Cupids can only be seen by Angels like me. Have you been listening to me?" She pouted her chin on his shoulder. "Where are you looking at? Don't..." He reasoned, "The TV screen."
"Oh … then can you see a floating gold butterfly?"
Trying his best to ignored the fidgeting flesh rubbing against him. Sasuke squinted his eyes under the fallen bang. "Ah…" Finally, he noticed the little floating creature, unsure of its color. But for a butterfly to stay floating in a spot was strange enough.
"Hn." Sasuke half-heartedly wanted the Cupid to go away but then again he really liking the feeling he was getting. Hot. Burning. Sleek.
He continued to stay in position to focus all his sense where the flimsy body moved to steal more glances at the far away floating Cupid. 'Doesn't he have work to do?'She thought?
Her face pouted at the annoying Cupid, really wanting him to fly off, but even though she really loathed the thing, does she really want the cupid to fly away as quick as possible or is it something else?
"Ah. He's gone…" Her head backed away from him to look at the emptiness. Hands continued to grip his shoulders to keep her from falling down. "… I guess he was making his round. Hmm? Any newly wedded couple in this building?"
"Hn." Finally, his conscious returned.
As Sakura was sitting on him, she looked around to see any more traces of the little Angel. About to get off, but he stopped her.
Grab.
Raising his brow "So," and he leaned his face in. "If he doesn't know you're an Angel. We don't want him to know of his existence. Why did we stop? We could've given the little lovable creature an eyeful treats." He teasingly grinned at her burning face.
"I—it's weird … withsomeonewatching …" Innocently blushing her face rouge, she lowered her head away from him.
Obsidian kept staring at the girl. A question popped in his head. Callused forefingers lifted her chin.
"Sakura… a question." He cocked his head on a side to look deeply in to her half lid pool of emerald. "Is it alright… like this… for you?" Holding her face, obsidian met the pair of widely opened emeralds.
She quickly recoiled her head to hide her burning cheeks. "I h-have no idea. Truthfully speaking, this is the f-first time I've done an a-assignment…" 'Like this.' She wrapped her arms down his elbows as he continued to hold her face dearly. "... B-besides ...there're no rules against …it." Blushing, her face reddened as she mumbled the last part.
"Ah…" 'Hn, I don't care what'll happen. I'm not thinking of letting you go … no matter what.'
'I'll do 'anything' to keep you.'
'Not just your mind.'
.
.
.
'Everything.'
Sasuke suddenly hardened his grip on the girl. Pulling her closer to him, his head rested on her fragile frame to bewilder his mind with her scent.
"?" She was a bit nervous by his unexpected gentle embrace. A gust of wind rushed in and send a breezing wind past the damping skin. "Acchooo!" A loud sneeze by the girl woke the two from their moment.
Standing up, he gathered the girl in his arm. "Let's get you dry. Wouldn't want you to be sick …"
"Hmm…" She draped her arms over his neck. Her legs were swinging gleefully over his arm.
"What's for lunch?" He asked, now that Sakura was off his main menu, for now.
"mmm… I think it's too hot to eat soup … hmm…? How about … shiitake and edamame salad?"
"Does it have tomatoes?"
"I can add them …"
"Hn."
"Then I'll make-" "No cake."
"Aw! For me then. Hmp."
o-o-o-o-o
"Ah. I see." A rough and grouchy voice was lingering around a high class studio apartment.
Phone was turned off and thrown away to the side.
"Who was that?"
"Work."
"Ah…" Ino climbed back under the sheet, cladding only a white tee-shirt. "So what jah want to do today?" She drew circles on Shikamaru's chest.
"…"
"Hm? … There's a new restaurant by the shore if you want to…"
"We got an invitation by Hyuuga for a dinner outing today."
"He's home? … When?" Ino popped her head up.
"This morning." Shikamaru deliberately sat up, hand reaching, searching. "?!" His brows fused together. The object he was looking for was nowhere in reach.
"Gathering … hmm … oh! ... time to break out my new goodies." Ino happily clapped her hands.
Shikamaru continued to search his drawer, under the drawer, along the bedside… seeking out any place that he could reach without getting up. While his girlfriend ranted nonstop about what she should wear.
Pause. "If you're invited … then Uchiha ought to be there right?"
Slowly getting irritated, "Uh" he grunted in agreement.
"Ah! ... Do you think he'll tak-oppft." "Ino." The man grabbed her waist suddenly. "What did you do to my cigs?"
"What? What? … No idea what you are talking about?" She was thrashing about in his arms, acting her best innocent act.
"Woman. Where did you …" He tickled her sensitive side.
"Ahhaaa…haa…" Laughing her head off. "N-nott .. th-here …"
"Where… is it?!"
o-o-o-o-o
"You're saying Neji is up to something?"
"Yes. But … well it's not anything 'bad' ... but…" She shrugged her shoulders.
"Che … well ... when isn't it. He's prob showing off something. Like last time. That resort. Teme still nailed him at the end."
Checking his phone, Naruto was irritated that he couldn't get the line through. "Damn you Teme. What's with him? Hasn't answered his F'ing phone. It's noon already" Long pause. "You don't think…?" He looked up at Hinata with a perverted smirk.
"I don't." Blush. Getting the idea sent by this blonde. "Think so … Sakura-chan was really drunk last night. She couldn't even walk to the door without bumping. Sasuke had to carry her all the way to his car." She gave an 'I'm giving up on these drunker' sigh. "Sasuke can't be someone who … you know." She squint her eyes trying to explain the unobvious.
Almost spurted out his noodle strings, "Ahaa… Sakura? … Drunk?" He laughed while taking another sip from his ramen broth.
"I was being careless while taking care of you…" She kicked his leg playfully. "…I didn't notice she drank out of Ino's glass." Sigh. "Until it was too late."
She hung her head lower. Another long sigh… "Then they both finished off the rest of what you and Shikamaru started."
"Gah. I guess I was pretty wasted to miss those moments. Heeh. How did Teme react?"
Hinata's face sulked more. "It wasn't easy getting you along with Ino and Shikamaru out. Ooooh … I hope those two got home safely … I tried to offer driving them home but ... Shika …" Started to turn Hinata's mode and took out her phone.
"Don't." Naruto's hand found hers, closing the phone. "They must be at it. Still. You would only get yourself blamed for calling from caring." He knew them too well. Those horny idiots.
[caw caw caw]
"Wait… a minute!" Finally catching on, realized. "How did everyone got some actions? … Except me! Even Teme, must had hitting it off last night too."
Hinata's head dropped with her cheek blushed. "You were too drunk to 'do' anything."
"Wah!?" Naruto almost spilled ... hearing his girlfriend's reply.
o-o-o-o-o
"Kyaaah!"
Dodge.
Kick.
Grab.
Flip.
"Oooffp."
"You lose…again." Tenten, wearing a white tee-shirt and black sweat pants, had knocked down the Hyuuga's heir flat on the mat.
Neji ruggedly narrowed his eyes. Letting him go, she seated beside the arrogant man. Spat! Angrily smacked his hand on the plastic mat, Neji sat up from the humiliating defeat.
"What's wrong with you today?" Tenten fixed her black bob. 'It's still fine.'"Suddenly asked me for a spar. Even though we have everything settled, it doesn't mean you should …"
Ears blocking out the ranting, his hand ran through his long hair. Taking out the hair band to let his damped tresses freed. The long black strands flown fluidly down his shoulder. Keeping his silent, he breathed a pattern of uneven breaths. He tried his best to calm down as quickly as he could.
"Ten."
"…done. We're aiming to beat Uch…"
"Ten!" Neji raise his low grouchy voice.
"Huh?"
"Go get ready. It's time." He stood up to take off his sodden shirt, drench in sweat. Walking to the door carelessly threw the shirt at the bodyguard standing.
"Al-right!" Tenten tried her best to keep her voice stern and eyes away. 'Such a jerk.'Fingernails gripped the mat.
[…]
"Master Neji."
"What?"
"Your father had called earlier to inform that. He will try his best to be back by the time of the party. There will also be extra guests tonight."
"Doesn't matter. The more the better." Neji placed his hand on the covered glass case in his room.
"Master Lee." The old butler bowed at the sight of the bowl-cut man.
"Mr. Souji." Lee returned his bow.
Understanding the important of secrecy, Souji walked away.
"Every guest intended to be here had been contacted… Neji. Are you sure this …"
"Of course." His fingers tapped on the clothed glass surface.
o-o-o-o-o-o
o-o-o-o
"Ah… this is nice. Right… Sasuke-kun?" Lick.
"Hn."
The hot blistering sun was making its way toward the evening horizon, marking the late afternoon time. Sasuke was sitting on the cool wooden floor of the wide opened French door leading toward the garden. One leg over the edge, the other tucked in, served as a pillow for this pink blob.
Sakura, hand holding an almost finished homemade strawberry Popsicle, was leisurely lying on her back with a leg swinging over a bent knee. Beside them was a tray of cool refreshing mint tea, chilled for the thirsty need.
"Must you read these? Even on Sundays." Turning her body around, her chin propped on his thigh looking up at the man with his eyes glue to the company's document.
"Yes. I can't just do everything in office. It can't be done in time like that."
"Hm." Returning to her previous comfortable position, she asked, "What was that package that was sent earlier?"
Remember. "Ah. What time is it, Sakura." His eyes never left his paper.
She leaned on the side. "Four thirteen ish …"
Unresponsive attitude from Sasuke made Sakura continue.
Poke. "Four fourteen now."
"..."
Poke. "Four seventeen…"
"Sakura. Don't poke my face with that."
Poke.
Sigh. "Thank you for your help." He finally answered.
"Hee. You're welcome." She took the wooden Popsicle stick away, facing him with her childish grin.
[…]
Finally reaching the final page, last sentence of the document, one of the many he had to read. Closing the folder, he set it aside to heave out a relaxing breathe. Hand was propping his slanting back. Looking down, the pink blob on his thigh had fallen deep asleep. She curled up in a ball, just like a fluffy kitten sleeping on breezing day.
Turning only his head, he was looking at the digital clock. [4:48] 'I guess it's time.'
"mmnn…mmnh." The little body's gibberish mumbling brought his attention back to her.
His lips unknowingly curved upward again. Hand settled on her bang to move it aside, clearing her angelic face, bright and radiance. Long curled eyelashes adored her eyes. Pink, flushed cheeks by the heat. Plump lips, pouting.
Gently held her head, he leaned down to steal a light kiss from the girl.
"hmm." She puffed out a low moan by the touch of his lips.
Raising his eye's brow, he kissed her chin. Her face twisted a ticklish expression. He leaned further down to kiss the dip of her neck.
"Ahhh…" Sakura let out a long heaving breath in to his neck. Her mind was undisturbed from slumber.
Smirk. Glancing at the clock.
'It's still early…'
o-o-o-o-o
o-o-o
Flush of rose color filled the sky. Clouds were breezing by with its cotton fluffiness. The air was drafty. Blossom bloomed, petals fluttered in the atmosphere.
"Ah. How do you do?"
"Never better."
"Such a delicious treat."
"As expected from the Hyuuga. Top of the best."
"This is so sudden. I almost didn't get enough time to be ready."
"Neji-sama is such a hunk. Tee hee." "I wonder how he is now. I saw him last time at the beach in …" Screams and giggles filled the crowed of empty minded girls.
"A very young gent. Very talented."
Crowd flourished and filled the yard of the Hyuuga's manor. Aristocrats from every social ladder, from the uttermost bottom feeder to the food chain controller, were there. Laughter and merriment over cramped the air. From the inside of the third floor, a pair of black orbs leered at the crowd through his window glass.
"Is he here?"
"Not a single sight."
His hand was gripping the curtain.
"But his right hand men are here."
Neji did not have any trouble spotting the annoying blond, hand in hand with his sister. Then there was the lazy pony tailed investigator, since his girl always have quite a crowd of ladies following her. He stuck out like a cold sore.
"Should we start?" Lee continued to feed Neji with his solution.
"Don't."
"That kid really has no respect for you. Does he, Neji?" Tenten was sitting leisurely in his master seat, swinging her legs. Her body adorned a floral dress that reached her knees.
Glare.
Ignore. "He's later than usual." She was playing with the stack of paper on his desk.
"I've tried to reach his phone. But it seemed to be off." Lee put his cell away.
"We'll start in thirty minutes."
"Yes!" Lee saluted his order.
"Cheh." Answered the unsympathetic woman.
o-o-o-o-o
"Ahhaahaa… You look like a…"
"Shut it. Dobe." Shikamaru hastily take the flower ornament on his suit jacket and stomp it in to the ground.
Hit. A slap on the shoulder came from Ino. "What did you do that for? We're supposed to match." Ino dressed in a halter wine dress, reached her mid thigh with a big fabric flower on the hem.
"Cheh." He snorted at her.
"Has anyone seen Uchiha?" Ino looked around, a champagne glass in her hand and ignored the crowd lightly gathering near them.
"I bet 'Mr. I'm the man who has twice the size of the stick sticking up in my ass' is burning up inside." Ino snorted, and glanced up the 'certain' window.
"C'mon guys." Naruto nudged the two. "Hina is near."
"What now? Backing up your soon to be brother in law." Ino and Shikamaru laughed as Naruto blushed his head red.
Poked. "Naru-kun. Are you drinking again?" She pouted from his pink cheeks.
"O-of course not!" He turned abruptly around to see his girlfriend. "Just like you told me. No consumption of alcohol." He pushed Hinata away as he glared back at the sneering couple and his middle finger waving their way.
Looking after the retreating backs, Shikamaru turned to his girl friend. Face glancing around as he took her hand to steal a sip from her champagne glass. "Uchiha is later than usual. I couldn't contact him at all earlier either."
Ino nodded her head in agreement.
"Ay he's probably doing his usual endeavor. They're still the idiot kids as they once were."
Ino wandered her attention around a bit. "I hope the package was sent in time."
"Package?" Shikamaru looked at her. She was always the prepared type.
"Yep." She winked in return.
o-o-o-o-o
Vrrrmmm…Vrrmmm…
"Sasuke-kun. Where are we going?"
"You'll see."
Leisurely driving his way to their destination, smirking at the thought of how late they were and of the reason why.
o-o-o
"Sasuke-kun… Ah…"
"Hn."
"N-no"
Smirk.
"W-wait…"
"Hold still."
"B-but."
Lick.
"Ahhhh..."
"You should have been more careful" Lick.
"I-it .. ahh ... waahhss.. slipperrr...y... ah."
Lick.
"Tell me to get it next time."
Lick.
"Sa ... su ... ahh ... It's a-ah ..lrigght. I j-just want to … ahh…""
Lick Lick.
"Hn. Didn't I told you to hold still. Stop pulling your hands out of mine."
Sakura sitting on the stool of the kitchen was spreading her legs over the side for this man to treat her burning pain with an ice pack and ...
His tongue.
Get a slight burnt was already painful trying to put the steaming hot pot of water safely over the counter.
Having that pain on your thigh ... near your ... was even worst.
She didn't mind the excruciating pain but it was this man that made her fidgeting nonstop.
With one hand holding her arms to keep it from pushing his head away.
His other hand was trying his hardest to keep her leg spread to ease the pain.
"Hn."
Looking over the near by opened box. He spotted a tie from the neatly folded attires.
"?! Sasuke kun ... wat are you ... wah..."
Sakura cried out as she was gently being tied.
"Better."
With her arm tied to the cupboard, it was easier to keep both her legs apart.
Licking ... he meant 'attending' to her wound ... without obstructions.
o-o-o
Seeing the familiar car driving through the gate, "He's here." Lee told the waiting butlers standing beside him. Throwing the binocular at the man then turned around to walk in to the manor.
As the said car drove in, lines of door-attendants stood by the driver's side. They waited to attend the 'special guest', unknowing of the extra guest inside.
Car stopped.
Left door opened.
Gallantly stepping out of his car, Sasuke fixed his attired one last time before giving the keys to the man who was shocked to see another person occupying the passenger seat.
"Hn." Silently telling the rest to back away, he walked to the other side and open up the door himself.
Eyes followed their every moves with their mouth gasped wide.
o-o-o-o-o
"Let's start." Neji was walking out of his room signaling the staff to prepare. But he stopped mid way when Lee walked in. "Neji." Silently telling him that 'he' had arrived.
"Stop." Neji lifted his hand to motion the following staff to halt their action. Tenten stood aside with her eyes rolled. 'Such arrogant.'
The members of working staff kept their heads low as their superior walked ahead.
"Bet you a thousand USD. He's going out there to flaunt around." Tenten walked to Lee's side, cocking her head aside looking at the pony-tailed man walking away.
"Should I give you the money now?"
"Sure."
[…]
"Neji, such a pleasure to see you!"
"How was Alaska?"
Twitch. "It was lovely." He courteously bowed.
"Neji-kun!" A group of dolled up plastic Barbie dolls waved at him.
Neji turned away and acted as if he didn't see them. Enjoying the attention he was getting, Neji painted his face with an obstinate smirk.
Until …
The crowd became silent with their heads turned…
Whispers slowly evaded the soundless crowd.
"Uchiha."Neji cursed under his breath. Eyes turned foul at the sight of the man and …Whistled. "I guess he's always a step ahead of you." Tauntingly laughed at her patron, Tenten stepped up behind him. "Wow... He's really ... ahead." Her eyes gleamed at the sight of pinkness.
Neji send the annoying woman beside him endless number of deadly toxic arrows. "Hey, I guessed you should start working on 'that' area more too ... he's waaay ... surpassing you." Nudging him to look over at the group of Barbie dolls who were currently pooled in their own tears. "But then again … you don't hav…" Whispered. His eyes threateningly narrowed, hands fisting wanting to strangle this blotter mouth.
Sasuke with a hand buried in his pocket. Wearing a dark personal designer suit, a deep blue shirt with a few buttons undone. His other hand was yielding a smaller porcelain softness.
All eyes diverted their attention from the main host to … not the Uchiha's second heir but … the lady beside him. The first ever to be seen by the man. Along side of Sasuke Uchiha. Famously known to be the Ice Prince Loner, it was quite a sight to see their hands intertwined.
Tiny fingers gripped his hand nervously at the daunting stares and whispers. He gave her an assuring squeezed.
[…]
"Who is she?"
"Ew … what kind of hair color is that?"
"Nooo… Sasuke-sama!"
"Is she a daughter of an impor-"
"No no no … it can't be!"
"Don't cry … we still have Neji sama."
"I will not let anyone take Sasu-sama."
"The young Uchiha finally settle himself. But how can he … choose such …"
"So that rumor is true."
[…]
Besides all the middle age madams' dismayed whispers, most were sobbing sounds from the young girls of the party.
"Uchiha. Over here." Ino waved her hand hysterically. "Stop it." Shikamaru wanted to tie the woman's arms together really bad. But she would sure to find other ways to make herself heard and seen.
Sakura let out a relieving smile to see familiar faces. Her pace quickened and pulled the man beside her.
"Ino-chan. Shikamaru. You're here too." Sasuke let go of the girl's hand to let her roam. He walked his usual calming pace behind her.
"Uh huh." Ino smiled sweetly at the girl. Self congratulated at her own talent. 'Man. I'm good.'Looking at Sakura from head to toe, she was wearing her newest design, a puffy doll style layers dress with clear pastel floral fabric. Her collar was holding up by a piece of blue silk string. And a big blue bow on the side. An expensive fragile gem bracelet covered her wrist. Her hair was simply flowing down, blowing by the light wind. The little feet wore a pair of cute matching blue ribbon heels. This girl was purely a beau. Radiant face with no make-up, not even a touch of lip gloss, shined. Au natural. Blue eyes saw the strangeness in the way she walked. 'Must be the heels. I should get her lower ones.'
"Uchiha." Shikamaru slowly made his way to his boss. "How was last night?" Smirking his face.
Glare.
"Ahaa…" Shikamaru lightly chuckled as he leaned his head toward Ino in a gesture. 'I got mine.'
Blankly, Sasuke flipped the man off. Middle finger held in place to tell the taunting man to fuck off that topic.
"Don't worry. Pretty sure. You're probably got more than him." Shikamaru pointed at the approaching couple. Naruto and Hinata made their way through the parting crowd at the glimpse of Uchiha. He left her side as she joined with Sakura.
"Hey, why so late?" Naruto asked.
Sasuke sidetracked his eyes to a side. Both Naruto and Shikamaru shared a glance. 'Ah.'
"I see you got my parcel in time." Ino joined Hinata and Sakura.
"Hn. As expected." His eyes kept close to the pink blob beside the black head.
"So." She neared him in a whispered tone. "How was last night? I got you a start."
Deadlier glare.
Blonde eye's brow raised. "No? … wow… what happened to you Uchiha?" Hand rose to cover to her smirking lips in a mocking manner.
Now added the blasting dark waves.
"Now Now … Sasuke … you better keep all eyes attach to her. One slip of the string … it'll fall apart. Get my drift?" Wink. "It was personally designed …"
Twitch. His attention returned to the carefree girl talking to Hinata.
"Hn."
"Hey. I thought I included a tie to go along with this…" Ino tapped her chin. Her eyes showed dismayed at the unfinished attire.
The group stood there as the surrounding crowd whispered. The famous stylist along with her mastermind boyfriend, the talented son of the world-renowned lawyer, and he, an Uchiha, just the last name was enough. Then the center of attention always returned to the pink hair girl. The mysterious lady who seemed to have captured the heart of Sasuke Uchiha.
[…]
Obsidian eyes once again diverted, annoyed by the staring crowd. He could have spent his Sunday evening much better with a certain someone than being a display. Then he spotted him.
"Uchiha. You finally decided to show up."
Sasuke, unmoving from his stance, glanced his eyes aside toward the coming voice. "Hyuuga. Did I miss the presentation … again?"
"Hm." Walking in front to face him, "No, everything just started. The main intro hasn't begun yet."
Obsidian eyes returned, unattached from the moving pinkness. He didn't care that much of the host's existence.
[…]
"Aw, I s-should expect you t-to come with Sasuke." Hinata smiled as she handed Sakura a plate of treats knowing her sweet tooth.
"I didn't know where we were going at all. He just started to …" Blush. "Well, we're here now." Bowing her thanks at the girl nice gesture, she held the plate.
"Ah, t-this is the main h-house of my family."
"Reeeallly? Woa and I thought Sasuke-kun's house was big." Big green eyes looked around.
"Hm. W-we are here, I guess y-you could say… as a welcome back party for my b-brother?" Hinata shrugged trying to get an explanation out, pointing at the man standing by Sasuke.
'Long hair…'Sakura looked at the man with quite unforgettable features. But to her, he was still no where compared to Sasuke.
K-lang …
"!" Pink and black turned to see. "Mr. Lee." Hinata smiled at the familiar man standing in front of them with his eyes afloat. Body stood rigid. Mouth mumbling strangeness. Then …
"My fair fair fair … lady … where have you been … all my life!"
Sakura quickly backed away seeing the man clad in a dark green suit with bowl cut hair, in his hand was a bouquet of flower that Hinata noticed as the center piece of the other table. "I can feel it now. It is true. Of all my twenty-eight years of youthful life, I did not believe in love at first sight until now…" He started his prancing ballet around the two girls.
Kneeling down in front of her, he held up his 'borrowed bouquet'. Dropping his head, eyes closed in sincere. His other took her 'hand' in his.
"By tonight. I shall vow my dedicated virgin love to you." Puckering up his lips to kiss…
"Who." A dark menacing voice woke Lee up from his love vow. His fingertips finally notice the roughness of the skin patch that was suppose to be his goddess' hand. When his eyes opened, his skin actually turned green at the sight of Uchiha, glaring down at him. Noticing whose hand he had kissed. Lee used his cuff to rub his mouth from the disturbing taste. "Spat .. Bleh … Disgusting!... How dare you … interrupt my devotion of true love? Where had you hid my goddess?" He frantically looked around. Finally noticed the pink tresses was hiding behind Sasuke, moving continuously around to hide from his view.
"Uchiha. Move!" He stood to look up at the blank face. Lee was irritated from his unflinching body continued to be an obstacle preventing him from the love of his life as he proclaimed.
Sakura was shaking as she clung to Sasuke's arm.
"Oy Lee what are you doing." Tenten walked in to give the man a punch in the head to wake him up. She leaned down. "Can't you see?" She pointed the obvious to the love struck man.
"No… it can't be. Why must a beauty be captured by … this…" Lee shuddered, unable to finish his sentence by the famous Uchiha glare.
"Hyuuga. Take this" Unable to find an appropriate word to describe the special specimen in from of him "… away from me before I ordered a restraining form." Sasuke spatted at the main host.
Neji was annoyed, a bit embarrassed "Lee."
Not caring, "I will save you my beauty." Hand flirtingly waved toward the girl, who was hiding behind Sasuke, clutching his jacket. Reaching out to Sakura, Lee accidentally was near enough to get his Class Ring stuck to the string of her dress. That 'one' specific string that made both Sasuke's and Ino's eyes widened.
"Oh Oosp." Lee apologetically tugged his hand free.
Wham!
Grab. Hold in place. "Hn." Sasuke darkly grunt as his hands securely grasped the string from undoing.
With the following scene of Ino dashed by to smack Lee's head away and caused him to fall flat on the floor. Shikamaru raised his brow at his girlfriend's strength. Tenten scooted aside to avoid the fallen body. While Neji stood flabbergasted. Naruto silently laughed his head off with Hinata lowering her head at the messy scene. Sakura stood innocently amidst, confused along with the surrounding crowd who was silent from the situation.
Ino let out a relieve sigh, turning around to be captured in an intense 'you're dead if we didn't stop this in time' stare from Sasuke. She shyly tapped her head, mouthing 'oopsy'.
"I'm pretty sure I wasn't invited for this…" Blank expression chilled everyone on a humid springy evening. Sasuke turned to look at Neji with his arrogant leer. Well, both of them were arrogantly leering at each other.
"Yes. Neji. We were not invited here just to hang around. We're waiting to hear your intro."
Sasuke was frozen in spot at the familiar voice.
This crowd really couldn't handle any more surprises.
Itachi Uchiha. The 'true' heir of the Uchiha fortune was standing beside Hyuuga Hiashi, the head of the Hyuuga Corporation. Both hands in his designed suit, smiling at the groups of 'young' adults. He was amused at the scene before his eyes, especially at a certain someone and his little doll.
"I haven't see you bunch for a while." Smirk.
'Itachi.' Obsidian eyes glared a hole through the man while emerald looked up at him worriedly by the hardness of his grip on her hand.
J-kiwi: *crawling out of bathroom* I have to keep going! All my energy was drained from writing Where Are You? But I shall fight on...argh...
