♫ ~ But I love you girl and you were my world. ~ ♫

"Yo, Tori. Where do I put these?" Sasuke lifted the wine bottles above his head for her to examine them fully. She pointed at a specific location where he should place them. He nodded, and then sets the two wine bottles with the rest of them in shelves. "Thanks for staying to clean up, Sasuke! Naruto sure is one party animal..."

He only narrowed his eyes, Sasuke was the one trying to wrench the alcohol free from the blond's grip.

"Where's Neji?" His voice was low for saying the name, the Hyuuga being unwanted here. He saw Tori's shoulder's softened which he assumes that she's not interested about her boyfriend at the moment. "He's out taking care of things. The wedding, the location, decorations, the cake..." then she sighed carelessly. "Sometimes I feel like he's in charge of most things and that just leaves me doing nothing. And we're suppose to be going out tonight..."

Angry built up through his body once he heard that. He should be feeling sorry for her, but spitefully he doesn't. He likes the way that Tori is complaining about the Hyuuga. "Man, what an asshole." he intentionally insulted.

She laughed but smiled. "Yeah, but I still love him." Sasuke only gave an envious glare at the ground. Not to overexaggerate, but Neji doesn't deserve her.. She looked over at him questioningly "Do you not like Neji?"

The Uchiha was a little stunned by the question. Was his gruesome acts that obvious? "What makes you ask that?" Her eyes glued to his onyx ones, she held a thinking face and try to apprehend. "Well, I noticed you were eying him throughout the party. And whenever you see him with me, you also looked... bothered. Is there something that I don't know?"

He stared in disbelief, so she did notice him. Sasuke pondered but promptly answered with a mild manner. "Nothing is wrong. I was just... worrying what kind of guy you're dating." That was half the truth, except that everything is an issue for him. Tori only peered at him, pouting her lips with seriousness. "Are you sure?"

It was his turn to stare and nodded without resisting his deep misery. She wasn't fully convinced but let it slide for now. Then Sasuke asked wonderously. "How about you and Neji?" Her brow arched dumbfoundedly, letting him continue. "Back there, you gave him a sour look while leaving us."

Unfortunately, her face dropped. Tori's playful expression disappeared, uninformed about the sight between them today.

"Oh... That."

Heaving slightly, her tiny body flopped down on the couch. Sasuke joined in right next to her. "It's the fact that he doesn't know much manners. He's sort of shy, but he never holds the desire to meet my closest friends."

Sasuke placed his arm over the head of the couch, gawking his eyes at her puzzled state. It reminded him that time in high school. Before, she would always go to the wise Uchiha for smart advice when she's in need of help.

He doesn't know how long she've known Neji, but Sasuke is certain that Tori puts in more trust in him than the Hyuuga. Even she believes so.

♫ ~ But you never trust this guy. ~ ♫
