The Unmatched Beauty : SasuSaku

Chapter XIX

I sat on the stairs in front of the school and plugged my headphones in. From the corner of my eye I noticed Karin had sat next to me. I could feel her staring at me, but I never turned too look at her. "Are you just going to ignore me!?" She shouted.

"If that's what it looks like," I replied, still not bothering to look at her.

"I bet if I were Sakura, you would've looked me dead in my eye while speaking to me!"

"So?"

"Why her!? Why fall in love with her out of all people!? What does she have that I don't!?"

"Love? Who said anything about romance?" I turned to her.

"Oh now you look at me? The second her name is mentioned, you pay me any attention. Tch," Karin stood up with tears running down her face, stomping away. "And not directly, but you did mention romance, Sasuke."

What the hell is her problem? I can't seem to understand the feminine population.

Chapter XIX - She Needs To Ask
Sakura's POV

"So, what is it?" I asked Neji as we walked through the hallways of the school.

"It's actually about Hinata," he replied.

"If it involves Hinata, it involves Naruto," I sighed, "Lemme guess, she wants my help with him?"

"Yeah. Although, she was too shy to approach you herself, especially since you and Sasuke have been together a lot recently. She finds him pretty intimidating."

"Sasuke? Intimidating? Nahhhh, he's just as much of a idiot as Naruto," I laughed.

"You seem to know him pretty well. Are you in love with him?"

That was just soooooo random. It's giving Adrien.

"What? Nahhhh," I blushed, "we're just friends, and we've been getting closer lately, that's all. Is kinda like when me and Naruto started getting close, yeah."

Why am I blushing?

"Mm," Neji smiled, "however, I have reason to believe you wouldn't be so red right now if Naruto was the topic instead."

"Whaaa-!"

"Hinata's inside this room," he cut me off, "let's go."

...

He's right, if we were talking about Naruto I wouldn't have blushed like that.

Am I..actually falling in love with Sasuke again?

No, I mean after all, he is a hot muthafucker, maybe that's why. Yeah, of course that's why. Besides, I wouldn't go as far as to say 'again'. All the previous years I knew Sasuke I wasn't actually in love with him, I just wanted to blind myself from my loneliness with love.

I mean, yeah, I'm actually getting to know Sasuke now, so technically speaking, if I were to fall in love with him I'd actually be in love with him this time. But, I'm not falling in love with him.

I sat down in the chair next to Hinata as she twitched her fingers and stared down at the floor. "You wanna ask Naruto to prom right?" I smiled at her.

"Huhhh!? H-how did you-!?"

"Well, asking two months in advance is a bit unusual if you ask me, but this is you were talking about. You'll probably use all that time to muster up the courage."

"B-but, he might.....say no...." she twirled her hair around her finger.

"Mmmmm, I'll do the best I can. No promises though. In the meantime, you should muster up some courage to have a conversation with him."

"Yeah, she's right," Neji spoke, "if you can't even hold a conversation with him, how can you expect to go to prom with him?"

Hinata kept twirling her long strands of hair around her finger. That's my cue to leave, this girl is another definition of weird.

...

After the school day finally ended, I met up with Naruto and Sasuke in front of the school. Why does it feel so weird seeing Sasuke now, damn that Neji.

"H-hey," I greeted them.

"What'dya say we all go get ramen together, ya know?" Said Naruto, smiling.

"Do you ever eat anything else?" Sasuke sighed.

"You're one to talk you rice monster," I laughed, "oh, by the way Naruto, who're you planning on going to prom with?"

"You?"

"Oh. Change of plans, I found you a date."

"Really? Who?" He smiled with excitement.

Course, this is Naruto we're talking about. He's not very "popular" with the ladies, still hearing that someone is actually willing to go with him comes off as surprising.

"Well," I started, tilting my head, "tell me all the ladies you're willing to go with. I don't wanna guilt trip you into going with her just because you know she wants to go with you."

"Hmmm, let's see," Naruto placed his finger on his chin, "Definitely not Temari, she scares me, and so does Karui. Not Karin of course, I hardly ever talk to her, not to mention she's my cousin. Tenten, nahhh, she might go with Neji or bushy brows. Ino, hm, she's cute, I would consider it but I really think she likes Sai. I wouldn't mind going with Konan either, we get along pretty well. And Hinata, ou, I've had her cooking before and it's reallyyyy good, she'd make the perfect wife. I wouldn't mind going with her either."

"Mmhm, mhmm," I said typing everything down in my notes.

In other words, I have to get Naruto to ask Hinata to prom within the time we have left. I mean, it is Hinata we're talking about, she's never gonna ask him no matter how hard she tries.

"Wanna go get McDonald's?" I asked the boys.

They both nodded.

Large Carmel frappe with extra whipped cream here I come 😩✨.
