| Sakura Haruno |

I woke up entangled in Sasuke. His arms were wrapped securely around my small body and his face as stuck into the crook of my neck. His small breathung tickling my skin. I slowly ran my fingers through his hair causing him to stir. He gripped me tighter as if trying to see if I was still there.

"Sakura." He groaned never leaving from his position. The raspiness of his voice when he first wakes up sending my butterlfies in my stomach into a frenzy.

"Yes, I'm here." I reply. He shifts to where he's propped on his elbow and looking down at me. My eyes slightly widened. Sasuke was...smiling.

"Hey." He says. "Good morning Monster."

"Good morning." I reply a little flustered at how beautiful that smile was. He then turned over getting out of bed leavinng me stuck.

"U-uh why don't you ever smile?" I asked him. I know, dumb question.

"Because I nevee had a reason to." He replies as he stretches.

"And what's your reason now?" I asked.

He looked over his shoulder, another smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "You."

I felt my face flush red as I covered my cheeks with my hand. And he laughed. Sasuke laughed.

"Ya know, you're cute when you're all flustered." He spoke as he walked to his closet pulling out the schools uniform.

"D-don't say that." I tell him looking down.

"Why?" He asks. "Does it make your heart flutter?" He smirks over at me and I found myseld blushing once more. Damn this Uchiha!

I tugged on the shirt Sasuke let me wear to sleep. My uniform from yesterday folded neatly after being washed. I sat there for a few minutes taking everything in. I always spend the night at Sasuke's but this time was different. We cuddled. He and I never even touch eachother in that way. It was comforting. I felt protected. 

I was so zoned out, I didn't notice that Sasuke was walking around his room with nothing but a towel on. My eyes bugged.

"What are you doing?!" I ask hin clutching the blacket to my chest.

He looked over at me like I was insane. "I'm getting ready for school?" He says in a duh manner. "Something you should be doing."

"Why didnt you just dress in the bathroom like you always do?"

"Because I forgot to bring my clothes!" He says. "Dang chill out virgin." He smirked at me once more and I just blinked. Once Sasuke was finished dressing himself, he ran his fingers through his hair and grabbed his satchel and phone along with his wallet.

"I'll wait for you in the car." He says before leaving. I quickly took out my phone.

To Hinata👭💙:
I have so much to tell you when I get to school...

I placed my phone down and walked into the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth with my very own things Itachi dubbed mine. I re-entered Sasuke's room and began dressing myself. Once finished I grabbed my backpack and things before walking out. I exited Sasuke's room and I heard chatter from the living room.

"Don't wait up for me." Itachi says as he grabbed his things. "I'm doing a double today."

Sasuke nodded as he bit into a tomato. I never understood how he could eat tomatos like they're apples.

"Sure thing." He says. They both look at me as I emerge from the hallway.

"There's my cherry blossom." Itachi smiled and opened his arms for a hug. I hugged him tightly as he kissed the top of my head. "Have a good day kiddo."

"I will." I smile at him. The three of us exit their home and went our separate ways. Itachi to his Blood red Kia Optima and Sasuke to his dark purple Infinity QX70.

Sasuke and I got in his car and the both of us headed to Naruto's house. He scrolled through his phone, Finding Naruto's contact I assume and pushed the call button. The ringing emerged from the car speakers.

"Yeah." Naruto grumbles. "I'm up, I'm ready. You outside?" He then yawns.

"Not yet." Sasuke replies. "I'm pulling up in 10."

"Okay."

Sasuke ended the call. And in exactly 10 minutes we were pulling up at Naruto's house. He honked the horn and Naruto walked out looking as groggy as he always looks. He walks out his gate and closes it before realizing I was in the front seat and climbed into the back.

"Good morning." He yawns.

"Good morning." I reply.

Sasuke on the other hand reached into what looked like a secret compartment and handed Naruto a tray. Naruto took the tray and I looked behind me to see what he was doing. He was about to roll a joint. I turned back and faced forward.

"That's what you get for being nosy." Sasuke says as he continues to drive down the residential street. He made it onto the main street and before I knew it smoke was illuminating the car. Sasuke pressed his AC on, airing out the entire car. He and Naruto sent the joint back and forth between the two. It was weird seeing them do that. They're completely different from when they're with everyone else. It's like they know what the other is thinking without even having to say anything to the other. Their friendship was something I could never understand but I admired all at the same time.

Sasuke finally pulled up at the school and I took perfume out my bag and began spraying myself. Sasuke coughed and looked at me.

"Really?" He says as he turns the car off.

"Yes really!" I say. "I don't wanna smell like that stuff."

"This is the best smell to wear honestly." Sasuke chuckles as he reaches in the back seat for his satchel. I caught a good whiff of his shower gel and I must say that over powered that disgusting marijuana smell.

The three of us exit the car and I make my way into the school. I spotted Bryan at his locker and I smiled.

"I'll see you guys in class." I say to them. Sasuke looked ahead and his eyes lowered as he stuck his hands into the pockets of his uniform pants. He shrugged and ruffled my hair before walking ahead of me with Naruto in tow. I could see Bryan notice them and as they passed he spoke to them Sasuke, being Sasuke kept walking but Naruto acknowledged him. Once Naruto walked away, I walked up towards Bryan. He smiled at me and took me in his arms.

"Hey babe." He says hugging me tightly.

"Hey." I tell him before kissing his lips. I took his hand in mine and lead him all the way to the tables that everyone meets up at. Ino was standing at the table with her hands planted firmly on the table as it looked like she was having an intense conversation with someone from the table.

"Good morning everyone." I say walking up. All heads turned to Bryan and I and everyone seemed to be uninterested.

"Good morning Sakura." Ino smiles and gives me a hug. I hugged her back. She pursed her lips together as she looked at Bryan. "Hello Bryan."

"Hey." He smiles back at her.

"What were you guys so deep in conversation about?" I ask.

"Oh nothing." Ino waves is off. She's been doing that alot lately. I don't like that. I'm definitely gonna have to call her out on it whenever she and I are alone.

The others began to talk amongst themselves and I found it odd how Naruto was here but Sasuke wasn't. Where'd he run off too?

****

School had come and gone and I found myself with Bryan all day. I just wanted to spend time with him and him alone. I was enjoying this relationship with him only because he was so sweet. He made me laugh and I could talk to him about anything. He never judged me and he always understood where I was coming from. I was slowly but surely starting to fall for Bryan and that's what scared me the most.

"Boo." I jumped turning around and seeing Bryan smiling down at me before he grabbed my face and kissed me.

"That's not funny." I pout watching him get his chuckles in. "I was really scared. I would expect something like that from Naruto, but never my boyfriend."

"I'm sorry babe I just couldn't pass up the chance."

I shook my head and retrieved my books from my locker before I closed it and threw it over my shoulder. Right when I closed my locker I heard a giggle. I turned my head in the direction of the laughter to see Sasuke leaning against the wall with smirking and talking to a girl. So that's where he's been all day? I couldn't make out the girl's facial features but from behind she had short red hair. She was of course shorter than he was, maybe even shorter than me. I could tell because she looked up at him so hard. I could only see Sasuke's shimmering eyes as he spoke to her. I guess he saw me staring because he looked up and nodded my way as if telling me goodbye before he pushed himself off the wall and walked off with the girl in tow.

What was this feeling I was feeling? Was this.....jealousy?

| Sasuke Uchiha |

* Two Months Later *

I stared off watching Sakura walk the halls with her stupid boyfriend in tow. She's been mad at me for the past month and a half and refuses to answer any of my text messages. I even tried to talk to her in class and got completely ignored. I dont know what I couldve done to make her act this way towards me.

"Hey." A voice coos snapping me out of my thoughts. I looked up seeing Aiko sitting on my lap with her arms draped over my shoulders. "What's wrong? What are you thinking about in that head of yours?"

I shrugged my shoulders and looked away from her once more. "Nothing." I tell her.

"It has to be something if you're so deep in thought like that." She then follows my gaze to where I was looking. Her lips pursed together in a smile.

"They're cute arent they?" She says. "I know Bryan. He's a sweet kid and all he does is talk about how amazing his girlfriend is. Its so sweet."

"I bet." I say sizing Bryan up as he held onto Sakura's waist as she talked to Hinata and Naruto.

"I want you to be talking about me to all your friends." Aiko says with a giggle. "I want to have you all in love and stuff."

I looked over at her again and tried my best to smile at her but it just wasn't working. But whatever I did, I made it believable.

"I do talk about you to them already babe." I tell her.

"I don't believe that." She says removing her arms from my shoulders and pulling out her phone. She began scrolling through typical social media and laid her head on my chest. She was so small that even sitting on my lap she could fully lay on my chest.

Aiko was a Senior just like I was. We didn't have the same classes although we had the same teachers. I stumbled across her on my way to class and she had asked me where the main office was. Usually I'd point people in the right direction and keep it moving, but I actually walked her there. Aiko was a cute girl with her short red hair and golden colored orbs. She was laid back and she didn't really bother people. If she wasn't talking or if you weren't paying attention, you would think she wasn't there at all. She was different from Sakura. Very different.

"Sup dude." Naruto smiles at me as he sits at the table. he raises his hand up for a high five and I gladly give him one. He looks at Aiko and purses his lips into a thin line. "Hey Aiko."

She lifted her head up briefly to look at him and give him a closed eye smile. "Hey Naru, how are you?"

I could see the cringe in his eyes. "I'm fine." He then turns his attention to me. "Dude, The gang wants to make another movie outing. Whaddya say?"

"I would but I already have plans with Aiko." I tell him. His facial expression dropped.

"Oh..okay."

"That's okay babe we can always do that some other time." She tells me looking up at me. I looked down at her and raised an eyebrow.

"Are you sure?" I tell her.

She nodded. "Plus it's another way that I can bond with all of your friends."

"Great." Naruto mummbles oozing sarcasm.

After the school day was over, I was walking to my locker when I saw Sakura standing at her own digging things out of it. I took that as my chance. Walking behind her, I slammed her locker shut. She slowly turned around and her eyes slowly met mine. She looked at me shocked and confused.

"Can you please talk to me?" I tell her looking down at her. My hands were pressed against the lockers as I looked down at her. She clutched her books to her chest and looked down avoiding my gaze.

"I have nothing to say to you." She says. She pushes herself off the lockers trying to get away from me. "Excuse me."

"Not untill you talk to me." I tell her.

"Talk about what Sasuke?" She looks up at me and her eyes were unsure. I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Why have you been avoiding me?" I ask her.

"Me? Avoiding you?" She chuckles. "No, I haven't been avoiding you at all. I just have nothing to say to you." She shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly and it was really starting to piss me off.

"Sakura everytime I say something to you, you ignore me." I say. "What the fuck is that about?"

"Ah, you don't like it when it's done to you now do you?"

My phone began to ring. I slowly pulled it out looking at the caller ID seeing that it was Aiko calling. Sakura smirked.

"Answer your girlfriend's call." She says slipping away from me. "She's probably looking for you." As she turned to leave, I grabbed her shoulder.

"Stop it." I tell her pulling her back. She looked at me. "Is that was this whole thing is about? Me having a girlfriends now?" I smirked. "Are you jealous Monster?"

She snatched away from me and frowned. "Don't flatter yourself." She says as she turns her head away from me. I took her chin in my hands.

"Good, you shouldn't." I tell her. Without even thinking, I leaned down and kissed her nose. "I'll see you at the movies tonight." And with that, I walked away.
