It wasn't him..?

Unwanted visitor

I walked home with Neji.

"What's wrong?" He asked, "You fainted twice, and you seem pretty.... out of it."

"Nothing. I-I don't want to talk about it," I replied, "I just need some time to think."

We said our goodbyes, and I ran straight upstairs, into my room. I buried my face in the pillows on my bed and sobbed. I cried and cried, for what felt like hours on end. Why, why did this have to happen to me? I thought, I have such dumb luck! Why did I assume that it was Naruto in there, why didn't I say something like "hey Naruto, I want to tell you this thing!" Ugh, I'm such a loser! And of all people, it had to be him! Sasuke Uchiha-

I was awoken from my thoughts by what sounded like someone knocking at my window. Just the wind, I thought, and ignored it. It carried on and I got annoyed.

"WHAT?! LEAVE ME ALONE!" I yelled and opened my window, expecting to be shouting at nothing, except for maybe tree branches.

I did a double-take when I saw what- or rather who- was knocking at my window. You, I thought angrily. Sasuke Uchiha was stood out in the yard with a handful of pebbles, and had clearly been throwing them at the window to try get my attention.

"Heh. Great. Now I've got your attention," he stated arrogantly, "Just give me a minute to get up there,"

"Wait," I gasped, "You're not actually going to climb up here, are you?"

"Course I am. We need to talk," he said, then scaled the wall and climbed through my window with ease.

"Right. So uh... I take it that you weren't talking to me earlier?" He said, "I assumed you were, seeing as you and Kiba were whispering and glancing in my direction earlier."

"Whispering?" I snapped, "I obviously weren't talkimg to you; and, we were hardly 'whispering;' Kiba was simply telling me that you'd actually turned up to Ino's party rather than just ignoring her invitation and skulking around the village as usual! Me? Be in love with you? That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard!" I was so pissed off. I was even ready to fight him! I was about to carry on ranting when I looked at Sasuke. He looked... upset. Like I'd hurt him, somehow; I began to feel guilty.

"I-it's not that I don't like y-you..." I said, "It's j-just that I-I like someone else," Well, I did, I thought. Wait, did I just think that?! Oh crap.

Sasuke looked at me and hesitated. "Well, if- if you wanted we could sort this out in the morning, when you've calmed down." He said, choosing his words carefully. I could tell he was trying not to anger me even more. He pulled something out of his pocket; "Here's my address," he said, "Come over in the morning and we'll talk."

I nodded and took the piece of paper with his address on.

"I best be going, then," he sighed, and started to climb out of the window.

"Sasuke! Wait!" I exclaimed. He turned around curiously. "I-I'm sorry if I upset you," I murmured,"I didn't mean it." What was I saying?!

Sasuke nodded. "No problems," he grinned, and jumped out of the window.

I shut the window and layed down on my bed. What did I mean by I 'didn't mean it?' Surely I meant what I said?
But, I thought, I didn't truly mean it. Otherwise I wouldn't have said that to him. I've never been a bad liar. Maybe I do like him... but only a small bit. It's just infatuation from the kiss earlier. Yeah, that's what it is... I think.

I rolled over and attempted to sleep, thoughts swirling around in my head.
