We Divorced💟

🌸Chapter 23🌸

*°°°°•🌸•°°°°*

The function came to an end, the guests thanking Baragan for the most pleasurable afternoon, it was the evening, everyone was just ready to relax.

"God~, that was tiring," Tenten said with a sigh, flopping onto the couch.

"I'm just glad the function is done and over with," Sakura said she was sitting with Lee on the L-shaped couch her head against his lap as he soothingly ran his through her hair.

"So what are we doing tomorrow, is there anything we should be attending?," Ino asked, she was sitting between Sai's legs, leaning against his chest.

"No actually but I was thinking that maybe let's go to the club and have a little fun and get wasted," Sakura said looking at her friends.

"That sounds like a great idea actually because no wanna have some fun," Temari said in a deadpan voice, sitting with Shikamaru, her head against his chest her legs tucked on the couch, Shikamaru had his arm around Temari's shoulders.

"Yes I agree on that one, some of us want to blow out some steam and distress a little bit," Karin said, she was sitting next to Sasuke but they weren't cuddling like the others, she wasn't much of a cuddler or a snuggler.

"Okay but the girls are only going to go, the men can figure out what they are going to do," Sakura said looking at the men.

"What?!, Why are we always getting left behind?!," Kiba asked with a frown clearly unhappy, he was sitting with Hinata who has her arms wrapped around his arm, leaning her head against his shoulder.

"Well Lee has something planned for you guys and I want some quality time with my friends," Sakura said with a shrug.

"Okay Lee tell us, what do you have planned for us?," Neji asked folding his arms with a frown.

"Either then sports please," Shikamaru said tiredly, he was not in the mood for running around and doing active things.

"Well, I was going to suggest we go to my dojo and blow up some steam there," Lee said looking at the men.

"You know what, Lee that is an excellent idea I think we should do it," Gaara said from his couch he shared with Naruto, she had a grey blanket wrapped around her and her head was against Gaara's chest.

"Yeah I agree with Gaara, I think we should do it," Sai said sitting up slightly.

"Eh, I'm down," Kiba said with a non challenged shrug," As long as I have something to do," he finished leaning against the couch.

"Then it's settled," Lee said then looked down at his fiance, Sakura winked at her Lee with a smile.

"Hey Naruto, are you okay?, you've been unusually quiet when you are usually the life of the party," Ino said looking at her friend.

"Yeah, I'm okay, I just have a lot in my head. Do you guys want some drinks?," Naruto asked as she set up slightly looking at her friends.

"Yeah sure, we could us a few glasses of wine," Ino said looking at her.

Naruto nodded and got up and started walking towards the kitchen disappearing behind the wall.

"Is Naruto okay?, Did something happen to her?," Sakura asked worriedly sitting up from her laying position.

"I don't know, she seems a bit down. I'll go talk to her," Hinata said and she was about to get up but Sasuke beat her to it.

"No I'll do it," Sasuke said getting up and walked towards the kitchen. Karin only rolled her eyes at Sasuke continuing to type on her phone.

'She's probably doing that to gain Sasuke's attention, obviously,' Karin thought shaking her head,' I don't know why Sasuke's is busy with his ex-wife though, it just baffles me,' Karin thought with a sigh, switching her phone off.

Gaara watched after Naruto and frowned as Sasuke followed after her,' I really don't like Uchiha hanging around Naruto after everything that's happened and there's a really important event coming up that Naruto and I have to attend to,' Gaara thought with a sigh, it was time.

Sasuke followed after Naruto and he watched her getting the wine bottle from the cabinet. He walked towards her and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Hey," Sasuke said and Naruto quickly turns around and rolled her eyes.

"What are you doing here?," She asked in a low voice taking the wine glasses from the high cabinet.

"I was just worried about you, why are you acting like this?," Sasuke asked confused looking at the blonde woman.

"You don't know why I'm upset?," Naruto asked then scoffed at him softly, continuing to pour the wine.

"Okay Naruto look, I'm worried about you and I would like to know what's going on with you," Sasuke said with a frown, he has no time to play around he really wants to know so they could be able to fix it.

"Okay listen Sasuke I don't think I'll be able to do this with you," Naruto said heading straight to the point. Sasuke frown looking at Naruto in confusion.

"What do you mean?," Sasuke asked but he knows very well what Naruto is talking about but he  doesn't want to believe it or acknowledge that. That Naruto was really rejecting him.

"Don't act dumb, I don't want to do this Sasuke. I feel so much guilt just thinking about it, you have a wife Sasuke you should be thinking about her and stop chasing me. You have a life and a future with Karin. And, I just want to live my life, without you," Naruto said trying to make Sasuke see reason.

"No, I'm not going to allow this to happen. Is this about the accident that happened this afternoon with Theo?, Because if its so then I apologise for it but I'm not going to apologise for telling that guy off because he was touching you inappropriately," Sasuke said with a deep frown, his voice was rising slightly of the gripping feeling he was feeling in his heart.

"You see Sasuke, you can't be jealous of every man I hang around with. It's not right, I'm not a child anymore and I'm certainly not yours anymore. And if you want to talk about inappropriate, then the way you are acting is very inappropriate Sasuke, for a married man!," Naruto said feeling upset herself.

"You can't call me looking out for you as an act of jealousy Naruto and it's not inappropriate when you I am looking out for a long time friend of mine!," Sasuke said really upset.

"That's the thing, you think you are looking out for me but you're really thinking about yourself and your feelings. You just embarrassed me in front of a really nice guy and spoiled the afternoon for me. You can't act this jealous and possessive over me Sasuke, I'm not yours anymore. We divorced, remember?," Naruto asked with a frown on her face, she's really unhappy with Sasuke right now and she certainly wants nothing to do with him right now.

"Naruto–,"

"You should focus on your wife Sasuke," Naruto said adding finality to her voice than put all the wine glasses on a tray then walked away.

Sasuke sighed, he really messed up with his jealousy and possessiveness. But he was not willing to give up on it. He had a feeling that this was his chance with Naruto again.
