♫ ~But I try my best to hold on at the times when it ain't working ~ ♫

Sasuke took his last swig of the last drop of his wine, gulping it down hard with his best friend sitting beside him. Naruto only patted the Uchiha's back as he drowns himself in his sorrow. The blond man groaned, now trying to force the glass out of the Uchiha's drunken hand. The wedding banquet is still going on, but Naruto decided to stay with him, now that Tori is married. "I think you had enough of wine for the night. You're driving back home, remember?"

A slight dizziness rammed the Raven's head, his hand touched his forehead as he began to stood from his seat. Naruto did also but more abruptly. "You alright?" Sasuke nodded slowly and treaded to the men's bathroom. Once he got in there, he hurriedly barged into a stall, his hand going to the back of his throat to vomit the alcohol in his system, coughing every ounce of it. He didn't want to be drunk at this time, especially when everybody knew he isn't much of a drinking person.

Before he can flush his contents away and regain back his mere mind together, a couple of footsteps walked in the bathroom door. Sasuke stopped as soon as he recognized the voice when they spoke. "Well done, my son." An older being began, hearing rushing water shoots from the faucet. "You made me so proud by doing what I've told you."

The Raven kept quiet, trying to peek through the crack from his stall. He saw a familiar long haired man from the back, Neji. "Thank you, father." He bowed. "Business will be successful. Now that I married her, more wealth and a great reputation goes through the Hyuuga family."

Was this arranged? Does Tori even know anything about this? Before they can continue or exiting the room, Sasuke just had enough of this silly game. Leaving his purple puke still remaining in the toilet, he opened his stall door wildly and saw the two men in total shock by the movement.

Neji widened his lavender eyes once Sasuke's face was shone in the light. "You fucking asshole." He hissed, stepping toward the groom hastily. Neji raised his hands up in defense mode. "Sasuke? You reek alcohol.." he pinched, but continued on. "Hey, look! It's not what it seems." Inches away from him, the Raven stopped mid second to hear his last words before throwing them back. "To hell it is!"

"No, you got it wrong. I do love her!" By his awe statement, Sasuke's angry expression turned to shock. Neji pleaded. "Truly I do, you have no idea..." He sees that he's telling the truth, who wouldn't love her?

But if his feelings for her are true, doubting that she wouldn't want to remain with him. His jealousy rose, there's no excuse to frame him, but his tongue slipped. "But so do I!" Neji only stared wide eyed at his bluntness, making himself further questioning about this. "You what?"

"I care about her! She... She promised me that she wouldn't get hurt by you." His heart opened through his mouth, words flying out freely. He didn't care if he was self-centered, not when Tori's husband is just using her for money. Instead of giving the Uchiha the adult talk, Neji's horrified face turned to full hatred once Sasuke's words finally processed.

"Now you're just being selfish." Shortly, the Hyuuga was being knocked by a furious punch across his cheek and then being flung to the bathroom wall. Neji fought back. By the minute flew by, two more figures bursts through the door to cut in the violence between them.

Both Naruto and Lee grabbed a hold of them without hesitation to separate. Once Sasuke ripped away from the blond, a large amount of people stopped and set their eyes in the bathroom where loud noises were coming from. He knew that the crowd overheard the conversation. He looked down embarrassed when he caught one particular girl's vibrant eyes filled with shock.

Grunting, Sasuke stormed out of the scene quickly before anyone questions him.
