We finished our little 'night-out' at the buffet, and.. no one recognised me. I wonder.. if it's possible that Shikamaru eradicated the video that was about me.. the news.. anything that related to me? Did he, somehow, convince the whole town that it was fake? Surely they would've questioned to why he would do such a thing to scare the village of some killer. It's either Shikamaru erased the video, or these people completely forgot about my presence and simply don't care about me.

"There's a lunar eclipse happening, why don't you three attend my dinner party tomorrow night?"

That's when I had realised that I was currently in the middle of daydreaming. I was sitting next to Naruto and Sakura on these wooden benches on the sidewalk, and Sai had offered us to attend his dinner party.

"Ahh, I'll go if Naruto goes"

Answered Sakura as she's currently filing her nails with her lips pouting and her legs crossed. I didn't answer as I was specifically waiting for Naruto to answer Sai's question. Naruto was thinking hard about it while Kiba gave Sai a nudge on the shoulder and nodded to let him know he was going. He couldn't answer properly due to the food in his mouth.

"Alright, I'll go!"

Is all Naruto said with a smile before going back to drinking. I just huff. I wasn't sure whether to go because I have the other 3 arriving tonight, and I don't think that Sai guy would invite them. I should make them attend uninvited,.. but then again— I don't think Naruto would like that. Should I go without those three? No, they're too reckless and Jugo becomes a complete worrywart without me to calm them down.

I side-eye Naruto in the corner of my eye, observing every movement he makes beside me. 'Does he even like me the same way he did before?.. Did he ever like me? I'm sure he does.' Suddenly, a memory clicked in my head. I remembered that time where I made him blush at one point for showing off my body. Was it out of pure humiliation?

I lowered my gaze to the concrete floor, now staring down at my shoes with almost narrowed eyes.

"Sasuke, are you alright?"

Questioned Sakura. Honestly, I was hoping Naruto would answer first.. but to see that it was just Sakura, then I guess.. I don't mind. I lift my head a bit, now looking at Sakura with a narrowed look.

"I'm fine, Sakura."

I answer her before straightening my posture and leaning back on the wooden bench, my arms now crossed. I noticed Naruto looking at me through the corner of my eye, but he didn't say anything in the progress of doing so. Say something.

He doesn't.

Nothing much happened afterwards, but as we are about to make our way to the arcade,.. three familiar figures came up to us. It's those little friends I was talking about. Karin, Jugo and Suigetsu. As usual, it looked like Karin and Suigetsu are arguing. If I were to make a complete guess, I would think that they're arguing because they're lost and don't understand the location I sent them.

"We're lost because of you, Suigetsu!"

Karin complains but then she turns her head and notices me. Suigetsu once told me that Karin liked me, and.. I believe him, but that doesn't matter. Karin then quickly rushed over to me while squealing my name. How annoying. I just groan as she hugs me and cheeks my well-being. Suigetsu just snickered and grinned from the sight.

"Ah, who the hell are they?"

Suigetsu questions with his eyes darting to Naruto, Sai, Sakura and Kiba. We all straightened up and stood in front of one another. Everyone just gave eachother looks before then looking at me.

"Say, Sasuke— are these the friends you were talking about?"

Naruto then points his finger to the three. Of course It's the ones I'm talking about, you idiot. I give him a nod, now watching them talk and introduce themselves. I don't know what's wrong with dog boy and Suigetsu, but they seem to be eying eachother down with glares. Are they seriously trying to intimidate eachother on their first time meeting?

"The hell is your problem, shark boy?"

Kiba scoffs these words out as he then crosses his arms, clearly pissed off by that snarl that Suigetsu was giving.

"I should be asking the same, you dog."

Suigetsu then teases Kiba by mimicking a dog, which riled up Kiba even more.

These two are going to be a problem..
