I woke up to the aroma of food coming from the kitchen. I sat up on the couch and noticed Sakura in the there whipping up that good good.

Author note : LMFAOOOOAOAOOO Sasuke wouldn't even say nothing like that 💀🕺🏿.

Restart.

I sat up on the couch and noticed Sakura in the kitchen making breakfast. My head started pounding a bit so I leaned against the pillows and looked up at the ceiling. "Look who's finally awake," she said looking in my direction, "are you hungry?"

"Depends," I said, "what're you making?"

"Ramen and red bean soup. Rice balls and tomatoes. A bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, for myself. Wake Naruto up would ya."

Our favorites huh. I went over to Naruto and shook him a bit. His eyes slowly opened. "Get up, loser," I said, looking down at him.

"SASUKE!?" He quickly popped up. "Hey, wait a second. This is Sakura's big rich super fancy elegant house, why're we here?"

"I wonder," Sakura replied.

Honestly, those were some pretty big words that Naruto just used. No, couldn't be. Maybe I imagined it.

Chapter XI - A Hot Topic
Sakura's POV

After eating breakfast, Sasuke decided to return home so he could shower and whatnot. Naruto, on the other hand, knocked himself back out on my couch. How much did that idiot drink away.

I finished analyzing what was left of the book and texted it to the group chat. Fun fact : the book was 870,000 pages long.

We finished analyzing within a week. #BuiltDifferent

...

I woke Naruto up and ran him some warm bath water to relax in. I made sure to put ramen in the water for him.

Sometimes I feel like an older sister to him. Then on other occasions it's like he's the older sibling.

Anyway, it's Sunday. I'm going to spend the day by myself shopping and drinking nasty coffee because they never make it right.

...

Staring at the Starbucks' menu and earning the impatience of the cashier, I ended up ordering a Kiwi Starfruit Lemonade. It's good to try something new; in actuality I'm tired of them getting my coffee order wrong.

After waiting for what seemed like forever, they finally gave me my drink and I began making my way to Hot Topic. That's where all the anime merch is. Gotta cop that Sukuna drippy drip 3000. I also need another Sukuna plushie.

I roamed the store for a while before I started seeing Jujutsu Kaisen merch. I see Itadori, but not Sukuna. Gotta find Sukuna; we don't mess with Itadori over here.

I kept searching then suddenly a raven-haired male caught the corner of my eye. I know damnnnn well....

I poked my head around the corner to see if was really him. To my surprise.. nahhhh.. no way. Sasuke? Sasuke Uchiha? A fan of anime? Ya learn something new everyday.

Nahhhhh.. maybe it's Itachi dead ass or something cause' there's no way.

I followed him around the store for a while. He looked at several sweaters with things like 'Sharingan', 'Rinnegan', and 'Susano'o' on them. Okay you lover of the dead.

Anyway, I should get back to looking for the love of my life; Sukuna ofc. In all honesty I'm just surprised that Sasuke and I have ANYTHING in common. I guess that just goes to show how little I knew about him, or know.

Well, I suppose I did say that as the Great Orphan Conqueror I would befriend him; so, that means I should talk to him, right? Nahhh, fuck that bitch.

I stuffed my phone in my pocket and began making my way out, seeming as they didn't have the beloved Sukuna plushie I looked so desperately for. I turned towards the door and, of course, bump into someone.

I bet $500 it's exactly who I don't want it to be. I took and deep breath I looked up.

Update : It's exactly who I don't want it to be.

Our eyes met. We stared at each other for a little while. My boy, I know your antisocial and all, but say SOMETHING for fucks sake.

He didn't say anything. We just stared into each other's eyes, a couple feet in front of the doorway. "H-hey," I laughed nervously, "how's it going? I had no idea you were here...hahahaha.."

"You followed me around for 30 minutes," he replied. Straight-faced and blunt, per usual.

This psychic mutherfu- he got powers or something cause' there's absolutely nooooo way....
How did he know? Was I that obvious? No, my stalking skills are absolute, there's no way he could've saw me.

"Aheheh..... you see, the two of us just so happen to be walking in the same direction at the same time," I lied.

"Mm."

He stared down into my emerald green eyes, giving me that 'I know you fucking lying but imma pretend to to believe it anyway' look.

"Oh yeah, I finished analyzing the rest of the book," I said, giving him a little smile, "we can start the essay whenever you're ready, just let us know."

"Alright. Where's Naruto?"

"Still at my place, probably. That idiot," I laughed. "Wanna go shopping together?"

Yes. This is good. Since he doesn't have a family or many friends I bet he does everything alone. How unfortunate. This is my time to do my job as the Great Orphan Conqueror.

"No," he replied.

"I-, fuck you," I rolled my eyes, "okay so which store do you wanna check out? I wanted to go to Michael's to buy a bunch of expensive art supplies I'll never use."

He stared at me. "Too expensive? We can go to the thrift store if you want," I leaned up to his face.

"Move," he glared.

"Fine," I sighed, "have it your way. I guessssss we can go get some rice balls."

His facial expression changed for a split second. Looks like I'm finally getting a reaction out of this unreadable bastard. "From where?" He asked.

"I dunno. You choose."
