♫ ~ And I see you with your man and it's hard to understand if we belong, if I did you wrong where we even began. ~ ♫

Sasuke slouches on his steady bench as the wooden ivory sitting in front of him. Arms resting up on the wooden piano as a sigh broke out from his lips while facing down to the keys. Then he sat up straight with loosen shoulders, flexing his fingers while the pads of his finger tips pressed the rightful notes to make a beautiful rhythm in his hands. An image of Tori filled his mind as the music danced out of the strings.

Her adoring smile, her energetic yet positive attitude pulling him back up..

He then softly sings to himself in his head. "Thinking about the old times when you kept me up late at night. We use to mess around, laugh and play, fuss and fight." Paused, he hesitated with his hands over the particular keys. The lyrics mixed very well with his emotions, recognizing the heart-warming words are the exact feelings in his heart. The Uchiha said the next line out loud. "I guess it's too late."

A presence appeared behind, grabbing his shoulders frightfully to cause him to flinch. The light hearted Tori laughed at the Raven's reaction. "Too late for what?" she asked naively. Sasuke felt panicked but pouted to cover his suspicion. "It's just a song, you idiot..." The woman rolled her eyes, obviously she thought it couldn't be anything else.

A jolt shot up the Uchiha's spine when she squished herself to sit on the bench by him. "It sounds really good! But although very sad." She gazed at the piano amazingly, couldn't believe her ears from Sasuke's artistic skills. "You should play it more often! I bet many people will be entertained by it." He smiled at her, pulling his hands away from the alone ivory. Tori gave a last smile before pulling him off the low bench.

"Come on, Sasuke! Everybody's outside." He can feel his heart being stitched back up an instant once the touch of her hand laced with his. But it didn't last long when the two reached the patio door where the backyard is crowded with familiar faces. When Sasuke stepped on the concrete, he was greeted by his best friend and his pink girlfriend.

"Sasuke! Glad you can make it!" Naruto screeched with a glass of champagne in his fingers. The pink headed woman gave an encouraging embrace around Tori's neck and squealed. "Oh look at you! You're growing up so fast!" Sakura grinned, pinching the Hyuuga's fiance's cheek. She huffed childishly and shooed her hand away.

The Raven's nerve is being twisted, feeling another figure wrapping an arm around the woman he loves dearly. His eye twitched, but only gave an uncaring look. "Where were you?" Neji asked sweetly towards his soon to be wife, capturing her lips in front of their three childhood friends. Sasuke looked away quickly from the scene with harsh disappointment as the other two snickered teasingly. He can't bare to look at her kissing another man. He can't even steal one look.

Tori's cheeks reddened by embarrassment, now turning to the three with a wave. "I'll see you guys around!" Giving them wide smiles, she definitely lasted her smile longer on the Uchiha. Her eyes shown a reassuring happiness that Sasuke can recall. The couple walked off, Neji acted as if none of them were present and Tori hindered him for that, and the Raven saw it pass her face. The Sasuke watched sadly as the bubbly woman being carried away with the wrong guy in her hands.

A hand touched his shoulder when a downfall frown stained his lips. Both Naruto and Sakura stared sympathetically at their friend, knowing how miserable and lost he feels by now. The blond told him, "You have to tell her..."
