In Love With My Best Friend |Uchiha Sasuke|

~chapter 11~

"Sasuke!!"

Akane entered his room unknowingly, walking in with a deafening voice which it awoke Sasuke from his sleep. "I have something to tell you!"

"How the heck did you-" he stopped when he was about to ask about her barge-in until his genuine mother appeared in his head. So he shook his head. "Never mind. What?"

While he was rubbing his eyes, they dilated when the brunette switched the light on in his room. He nearly went blind.

"For the love of... Damn it, Akane! Can you at least call before coming here? I thought I told you!"

"Sorry, I just came here without thinking!" Akane sat on his bed in front of him. "Anyways, something happened at my house." This brought the Uchiha's attention, thinking of an urgent situation. "I-I need help this Friday night! How does a girl properly dress for a movie?"

Dumbstruck, Sasuke stared at her in confusion with his eyebrows arched. This is an abrupt question. "Uh, what do you mean?"

"You know, a dress, jeans, or shorts! Should I dress formal or casual?! Make-up or no make-up? Which is it?!" Overwhelmed by her flustering, he watched Akane bounce nervously on his bed looking embarrassed.

Question is: why does she care about dressing up for a movie?

He should be asking that.

"The reason why you're asking is because...?" Then he saw a blush creeping up to her cheeks which he flinched by her reaction. She twiddled her fingers together shyly.

"I, erm... I have a... It's sort of a...kinda-nearly-or could be... a date."

Did he hear her right? He did.

Unfortunately, it wasn't a surprise to him that Akane has a date with a guy, not like it's her first time announcing it. But what really surprises him is she's actually asking for advice. At least for a movie, she would normally just take off in her tomboy-styled clothes and only Sasuke would know.

"With who?" He asked suspiciously, and then he realized who it might be. "Don't tell me..."

"Yeppers! His name is Arai, the one who ran me over with his bike!" Strange to hear when she puts it like that, so Sasuke narrowed his tired eyes at her. What in the world is she thinking going out with a stranger like that?

"You barely know the guy," he simply said. "How do you know if he's not a creepy stalker, or perhaps he's some homeless guy trying to rob you?" Akane chuckled by his exaggeration.

"Sasuke, you're being ridiculous! You saw he was wearing a high school uniform from Suna High, I doubt that he's homeless. And plus, he dropped off my planner at my house because I wrote my address in there which I should, or should not, scratch it off in case a real stalker claims it." Grounded, she explained with closed eyes.

Sasuke only crossed his arms as an irritated vein came to the surface of his skin over his forehead. "I'm telling you 'no'."

"Why?"

"Because I obviously don't trust him," he answered, making Akane pout and huffing her cheeks.

"You didn't say that when Kiba asked me on a date in the past. And I didn't even like him in the first place!" He scoffed at her.

"At least I know him well enough to allow you to date that bastard. In an addition to that, you didn't look this eager to do so." Akane pressed her lips together at his words and dropped her shoulders sadly, unmoved by his retort.

"That's because I do have a feeling for this guy!he just seems... Really nice, you know. Believe it not, this is the first time I ever desire to see a guy after the first glance. For some reason, he's just on my mind." Hearing this from Akane is probably one of the strangest things Sasuke has ever witnessed, probably because he's not used to girl talk, especially with Akane who knows nothing about it.

It feels out of place to know something like that from her, about another person.

"So you like a real guy, huh?" She growled at him, half-glaring.

"Heeey.. What's that supposed to mean?" Akane eyed him carefully and he just chuckled under his breath, rubbing on top of her head gently.

"Nothing, nothing.. It will take more than that to convince me."

Pushing his hand away, Akane's hair was ruffled enough to the point it when it's a nest, "You're such a dad about this... It's only the first date!"

"Yet you're asking me about how a girl should dress for a movie," he watched Akane's face dropped as she turned red. "Don't you just go in your normal clothes, Akane?"

"Yeah but...," she trailed quietly. "I, I really want to look cute for once.." What the heck did this guy, Arai, trigger in Akane? It's like she turned over a new leaf in front of Sasuke, meaning this is a sign of something good or bad.

"You should be asking Momo about this, not me." She laughed nervously while rubbing the back of her head as he furrowed his brow at her reaction.

"Compare to me, she's a whole different level of cute." Unfortunately, she must say so for herself in a bad way. Momo is way out of her mind if she wants to get tips and advice from because that's all about her natural behavior - which Akane can't match.

Folding his arms again, Sasuke try to yank the blanket underneath the brunette until he finally lays it over his body. "Bug me in the morning and let's see if I change my mind or not," he told her, flopping his head onto his white pillow.

Akane gaped at him and suddenly tries to pull the covers off of him with no luck of him gripping so hard.

"Awww, give him a chance, Sasu! He's not bad as you think he is," she pleaded and then he just glared at her with the blanket pulled over his nose.

"I'm afraid that's too soon to say. Now leave me alone." Akane stopped pulling me as he went back to his sleepy world, trying to avoid the topic by snoozing. But however, while staring at the motionless Sasuke who's desperate for sleep, a slight idea slipped into Akane's mind. A lightbulb flickered over her head.

So she smiled deviously, pulling out her phone behind her back and quickly send a text message to Momo.

Locking her screen, she quietly waved at the Uchiha who's already in his deep slumber as she exit his room with the light off, closing his door and whispering a 'goodnight'. Then she sighed proudly to herself.

This is going to be fun!
