Onyx Eyes (A Sasuke Uchiha Story)

5: Party

I was sitting on the ground next to Sasuke and Sakura, Naruto was tried to a tree. Sasuke, Sakura and I had food, but Naruto didn’t. He had apparently cheated. I did the best somehow, because I actually wanted to use team work. But still, I thought I did as good as everyone else here. Sakura stopped eating for a moment, and sighed. She turned to Naruto and started feeding him. Soon, Sasuke started, then I did too. I let him have all my food, since I had already ate some and was okay with skipping eating for a while. Then, the sky turned black, thunder roared, and Kakashi appeared, pissed.
“How dare you disobey my rules?!” he roared.
We weren’t allowed to feed Naruto in the first place, but I didn’t care.
“You said we had to work like a team, so we are!” Sakura shouted.
Sasuke added some, then the sky seemed to clear.
“Good job, you’ve all passed!” he said, with a thumbs up.
“What?!” Naruto asked, confused.
“You ignored my orders and used team work!” Kakashi stated. My eyes widened.
“So, we’re in this team officially?” I asked.
“Yes! Tomorrow, report at the Hokage’s office for our next missions.” he said.
We started walking away, grateful we actually passed.
Then we remembered we left Naruto. I ran back and untied him, then went to my home. I walked in my apartment and saw Eiko on my couch.
“How’d you get in here?” I asked.
“Magic. Anyways, I have an idea!” she said, I noticed she had her headband tied around her neck. It looked awesome. Mine was on my forehead.
“Which is?” I asked.
“Okay, we’re going to have a party.” she said.
“I don’t want to.” I said, walking to my kitchen. I turned on the lights and saw bags of chips, bottles of soda, and red plastic cups. “Uhmmm.....” I looked at her weirdly.
“I already invited people.” she said, looking down, ready for screaming.
“Oh, okay. Well, your cleaning up after then.” I said, then walked to the door. The doorbell had just rung, I opened the door to see Shikamaru, Ino, and Choji.
“Come in!” I said, they walked in and put some party things on the table.
“I love parties!” Choji said, then looked over at me. He smiled.
“Can I have some barbeque chips?” he asked.
“Knock yourself out!” I said, moving out of the way of the table. He ran to it and started stuffing his face.
“Jeeze, save some for us.” Shikamaru said.
“I’m only eating my favorite flavor. Barbeque!” Choji exclaimed happily.
Ino looked over at me.
“Hey, I haven’t talked to you before.” she said. She leaned on the wall and looked at me.
“Yeah.” I said, I didn’t know how to reply to her words.
“Stay away from Sasuke.” she said.
“I don’t have any interest in Sasuke,” I said, then started walking closer. “And if I did, you wouldn’t have power over me.” I added, my eyes wicked.
“S-Sorry.” she stuttered, then ran over to talk to Eiko.
Everyone else piled in after that, and I was surprised to see my team come in.
“I dragged Sasuke here.” Sakura said, smiling.
“Yeah, I figured he wouldn’t be willing to come.” I said.
“SPIN THE BOTTLE!!!” Ino shouted, grabbing everyone and putting them in a large circle. Sasuke stood up to leave, but Choji held him down.
“Who will go first?” Eiko asked, then her eyes landed on me. She grinned. “Fubuki. You first.”
My heart skipped a beat, I couldn’t help it. I had to kiss someone.
I spun the bottle, it swung in circles a couple of times before landing on none other than....
Sasuke.
My eyes widened, everyone at the circle gasped in shock.
“KISS HIM!!” Naruto shouted, causing Sakura and Ino to start punching him vigorously.
“I refuse.” I said, then looked away. I glared at the wall. I felt myself being pulled. I looked at the source to see Choji. Damn his strength. He shoved me onto Sasuke, causing me to accidentally push Sasuke back so I was lying on top of him. My eyes widened. I tried getting up, my hand slipped, causing me and Sasuke’s mouths to collide. I quickly scrambled off him, freaked out. My eyes were hard, I was a little pissed. I got up and walked out of the room.
My lips still tingled from the kiss, his lips still lingered on mine. I could still feel the warmth on them. His lips were soft and warm, to my surprise I actually liked the kiss, even if it was two seconds.
“HA HA HA, INO! YOU HAVE TO KISS KIBA!!!” I heard Eiko scream from the room. I shook my head. I was going to make some friends, I couldn’t be so distant. This is probably why Eiko planned this.
I got up and walked back, I noticed the light on in the library. Yes, I had a library.
I walked in to see Sasuke sitting on the chair, his head resting on his hand. I walked up to him and sat down. He looked up.
“Hn?” he said, rubbing his eyes a little. He was tired, I could tell.
“Are you tired?” I asked.
“Naruto woke me up. I trained after the mission and then fell asleep, he and Sakura dragged me here.” Sasuke murmured.
“You can go home, I don’t care.” I said.
He was silent for a moment. He didn't get up to leave, so I figured I'd talk to him.
I stood up for a moment to close the door, I looked at him to watch his reaction, then sat down.
“Look, me and you aren’t friends. We aren’t enemies. But we did endure the same thing. Our clans being massacred.” he flinched when I said that, I obviously prodded at a tender spot in his heart. “So, because of that, I think I could talk to you about my clan massacre. I can’t get over it.”
To my surprise, his answer was useful. He actually answered.
“I can’t either. It’s normal.” he said, looking at the floor.
I was still embarrassed from kissing him, but I pushed that aside.
“My family was slaughtered in front of my eyes. I was defenseless.” I answered.
“I came home to my family dead. I walked in my parents room to find them on the floor, my brother standing above them.” he said, he fought to keep his voice steady, his eyes weren’t seeable, but I knew they were pained. He was looking away, his fist clenched. “He killed them. In front of my eyes.” he said in a whisper.
His older brother slaughtered his own clan?!
I know for sure none of my siblings started the massacre I went through, it was ninjas from a different village.
But if my brothers, Daisuke or Michelangelo, killed the family, I’d be in more pain than right now.
“I’m so sorry.” I said in a whisper. “And I know that’s not what you want to here. I hate sympathy. But that’s all that comes to mind....” I said. I got up and walked to the door. “Thanks for the talk.” I said, then fled to the woods before he could respond.
When I came back, the house was empty. The party was over. Everything was cleaned up, Eiko was gone as well.
That night, I had a horrible nightmare.
