| Sasuke Uchiha |

* A Month Later *

Over the course of time - I dont know how - but I became relatively close to Sakura. We throw insults at eachother and no one really knows that we text eachother too. I insult her in her texts and she does the same.

But lately she hasn't been hanging out with us. Why? I wish I knew.

"Hey guys." Sakura's voice fell upon my ears I looked up seeing her with a guy standing right behind her. "I wanted you guys to meet someone." She pulls the guy closer and he smiles nervously at all of us.

"This is Bryan, my boyfriend." She finishes.

Everyone pretty much stares at her. Boyfriend? I began tuning her out. I didn't care for him anymore.

"And this is Sasuke, Naruto's best friend and a pain in my ass." She says. I lazily look up once again to see the purple eyed boy sticking his hand out at me and smiling.

"Nice to meet you Sasuke." He says. Furrowing my eyebrows I stared at his hand.

"I don't know where your hand has been." I reply.

"See what I mean?" Sakura turns to her boyfriend. "A pain in my ass."

"You haven't an ass to be a pain in Pinky." I tell her.

"Fuck off Duckbutt."

For the remainder of the lunch period, Sakura sat at the table talking to her boyfriend. Her annoying laughter rang in my ears every five minutes driving me insane.

"Aren't they cute together?" Karin spoke from the left of me. She wrapped her arms around mine before laying her head on my shoulder.

"Karin get off me." I tell her ignoring her remark.

"Awe come on Sasuke." She pokes her lip out as she look at me. "Why are you always so mean?"

I sighed and shook her off of me before getting up and walking away. I needed air.

I found myself outside leaning over the railing and watching the students walk back and forth.

"Hey." A voice says. I knew it was Ino.  She krept alongside me and leaned on the railing facing me.

"What do you want Ino?" I ask her. "I'd prefer being alone."

She just giggled. "Oh Sasuke, you and I both know you hate being alone." She looks at me sternly. "What's on your mind? You know you can talk to me."

I looked at her from the corners of my eyes before looking away.

"Nothing, I just got annoyed at Karin hanging on me per usual." I say standing up straight and sticking my hands in my pockets.

"You like her dont you?" She says bluntly.

"Who?" I frowned.

"Sakura, or in your words, Pinky." She snickered when she spoke.

"No." I answer.

"Then why did you get so agitated when I said her name?" She asks. I look at her. She smiled smugly. "Sasuke you forget, I'm the closest one to you besides Naruto." She steps closer to me. "So I know you; I know your body language. You may fool Shikamaru and the others, but you cant fool me."

"Shut up Ino."

"Sasuke if you cant be honest with yourself, at least be honest with me."

"I am being honest with you Ino." I tell her. "I don't like her like that. We're just friends."

"Okay Sasuke." She says flatly. "She has a boyfriend now so you can't lust after her anymore.

I frowned. She's really starting to piss me off.

"Oh, I'm sorry." She smirks. "Did I hit a nerve?"

"Ino leave me alone." She giggles before pushing herself off the railing. She wrapped her arms around my torso hugging me. I groaned.

"I love you Sasuke Nii-chan."

I look at her and the both of us break into laughter. I hated how Ino can make me mad and laugh all at the same time. I guess this is what it was really like to have a sister.

Sakura giggled loudly for the umpteenth time and I found myself rolling my eyes.

"It's not even that funny." I find myself mumbling. I felt a nudge in my side. Looking over, I seen Hinata glaring at me. I shrugged.

"Naruto be happy for her." She whispers. "We were like that once upon a time."

"No." I shook my head. "We were not."

She huffs. "I'm not as happy about this as you are." She says. "But Ino said-"

"-I don't care what Ino said anymore." I answer truthfully. "This wasn't apart of the plan."

Hinata places her hand on my shoulder. "They will find their own way to eachother Naruto." She says. "Maybe we should stay out of it now."

I look at her. "No Hinata." I pursed my lips together into a thin line. "You don't know Sasuke like Ino and I. He doesn't express himself. If he likes someone you'd never know. You'd have to know his body language. His different tones of voice, how he looks at her. All of these things are important and this Brandon guy-"

"-Bryan." She corrects.

"That's how you know he's irrelevant!" I find myself yelling. The table then fell silent as all eyes landed on us. I chuckled lightly. "Excuse us." I take Hinata's hand and the both of us get up to leave the table. We walked away.

"That's how you know I dont give a shit about him." I say again. "I mean look at him. With his white hair and purple eyes." I cross my arms.

"It seems as though you're the one that's jealous." Hinata giggled. She wrapped her arms around me and pulled me closer to her as I pouted.

"Yes because he's in the way of my best friend finally being happy since his parents died, Hinata you know this."

"I do." She nods.

"So you're her best friend." I start. "Tell her to break up with him."

"I can't do that babe." She laughs.

"Why?!"

"What's going on?" We followed the voice seeing Ino and Sasuke.

"Naruto is jealous." Hinata says. "I said Bryan was cute."

Ino shook her head and Sasuke just stared.

"He looks like a dick." Sasuke says.

"Up top man." I raised my hand to high five him. He gave me a five.

"Shame on you Hinata for checking out another guy in the presence of your boyfriend." Sasuke mocks her.

Hinata frowns. "I wasn't checking him out." She says as she slapped Sasuke and my hands from eachother. "If anything you guys are the dicks."

Sasuke placed his hand on his chest in mock shock. "Wow Hinata is that really what you think of me?"

"Oh don't act offended." She scoffs. "Anyway, study group tonight; where?"

"My house." Ino responds. "But I was thinking we all should go back to Sasuke's." She turned to Sasuke and he frowned.

"Why?" He asked.

"Because Itachi actually cooks for us." She says. "And my parents are always working. You guys know I can barely cook and I'm burnt out on takeout."

Sasuke sighed pulling out his phone. "Fine, I'll text Itachi and let him know."

The bell rings and Sasuke began walking away. We followed behind him.

"He's jealous." Ino whispers to us.

"Really?" Hinata looked over at her as Ino linked her arms in mine and Hinata's.

"Yes." She says and began telling us what happened when she followed him.

"Told you." I say looking over at Hinata who stuck her tongue out.

The three of us together walked to class. Sasuke stopped a little ways and leaned against the lockers. When we caught up to him, we noticed what he was looking at.

Sakura and Bryan were standing in front of the classroom. Sakura stood on her tiptoes with her arms around his neck and hands in his hair. Bryan's arms were securely wrapped around Sakura's small waist as they lip locked. I took at peek at Sasuke's face. A look of disgust evident in his eyes, but his face was straight.

Once the two pulled away from eachother, they looked at eachother the same way I look at Hinata before they parted. Bryan headed our way. He smiled at us.

"Hey!" He says. Sasuke stopped him by putting his hand on Bryan's shoulder.

"If you hurt her, I'll kill you." He spoke lowly, but Ino, Hinata & I heard her causing my eyes to grow wide. Bryan couldn't respond to him because he was already walking into the classroom.

I laughed nervously trying to break the awkwardness.

"Aheh, he didn't mean that Bryan." I say patting his back.

"I feel like he did." Bryan rubbed his head. "I felt a menacing shiver go down my spin when he said that."

"That's just Sasuke being Sasuke." Ino adds. "Sakura is like his little sister so he's real protective of her."

"What?" I frown looking at Ino. "Really?" She never tore her gaze from Bryan as she Nudges me hard in the stomach. I doubled over in pain as Hinata got a few snorts out of it.

"O-oh o-okay." He says. "Well see you guys later, yeah?"

"Yeah." I groan trying to regain my composure. "Sure dude." I limp into the class room just in time to see Sasuke reach over and yank Sakura's hair. She hit him.

"You fucking dick!" She snaps socking Me. I smirked at her.

"So you think you're cute now because you got a boyfriend?" I rest my chin in my hand. "You're still a Green-Eyed Monster, Pinky."

"Fuck off Sasuke, you emo Queer."

"Oooouuuuu aim right for the jugular." I mock her. "So where'd you find him?"

"Are you jealous?" She frowns at me. I scoffed.

"Of course not." I reply. "I'd rather be jealous if Karin got a boyfriend over you."

"You're a dick." She mumbles. I couldn't help but smirk at her. I examined the side of her face. My eyes got lower noticing she had a hickey on her neck.

"Eew you let him mark his territory?" I ask.

She glared at me. "I'm not a tree and Bryan is not a dog, Sasuke."

"Hn." Was all I said. "Are you coming to the study group tonight or are you going to explore Brandon's-"

"Bryan." She corrected.

"Yeah, Brandi; that's what I said." I blinked as she scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Are you coming or not?"

"Can I ride with you?" She asks.

"Do you always ask stupid questions, Pinky?"

She rolled her eyes. "Whatever Sasuke, I'm coming."

"Thank you."

I heard a groan from the left of me and I looked seeing Naruto rubbing his stomach.

"What's wrong with you?" I ask him.

"Ino elbowed me in the stomach and it hurts." He wimpers. I peer to my right where Hinata is seated next to Sakura.

"Yo Hina." I call to her. She leanes forward and Sakura also looked at me.

"I said 'Hina' not 'Pinky' mind your business." I say pushing Sakura back to get a full view of Hinata. Sakura scoffed and smacked my hand down.

"Anyway." I say ignoring her. "Your man needs some tender, love and care."

She blushed before frowning. "He's fine." She says before leaning back.

"Ouch." I look over at Naruto and shrugged. "I tried."

"Yeah thanks dude." He groans.

I chuckled and leaned back in my seat. I couldn't help but look over at Sakura as she talked about her boyfriend to Hinata. He wasn't gonna last too long and poor girl has her nose wide open for him.
