Long Lost Light ||A NaruSasu AU||

~2~

Sasuke's POV

After that "incident", I think I fell asleep, cause when I open my eyes again; bright light is all around the kind of fancy room. And on top of that, an unusual smell comes from the kitchen. Or is it the room next to it ? My head hurts so badly I can't even remember which room is which.

Even with the terrible headache, I somehow manage to get out of the bed and get dressed, without breaking something; like that large lamp vase that is placed on the nightstand.

When I was about to finish lacing my shoes, my ears catch a faint sound of someone that comes from the other side of the apartment. The sounds quickly intensifies, and before I have the time to do something, a slim women is standing in the door frame.

I give her a quick glance before I focus back on my shoes. She's tall, with green eyes and strange looking hair. Not because of the haircut, but because of the colour. Bright pink. In my opinion, it doesn't suit her at all; but no one asks me.

"Breakfast is ready! I made your favorite food!" Her voice is so cheerful and high pitched; it makes you wonder if she took some drugs for happiness.

"I'm not hungry" is all I mumble before I take my keys and phone and rush out of that apartment.

The apartment is hers. Even if it's not that spacious, it has some luxury items that make it look exotic. I know my way around pretty well, and that's because my step father is the one that bought it for her.

Sakura (that's the girl's name) always insists that I don't spend enough time with her, so I usually end up in that place, even if I later regret my decision.

The thing here is not that I don't like her; she is (most of the time) a cool person. She cares about her friends, well, if you're her enemy, watch out cause she is probably going to punch you so hard you will not be able to move; the girl is pretty smart, if she doesn't let her emotions interfere; and she is a nurse at a local hospital.

What a wonderful list, right? If you don't add : the fact that she doesn't give a crap if she has to crush someone's emotions and beliefs, just to get what she wants (that's what happened with Hyuga Hinata, that somehow is still her "best friend"); the annoying fact that if she doesn't like someone, or just thinks they're "wierd", she will immediately go and scold them, and everytime the pinkette will see that person again she will start asking unnecessary questions that will make that person, no, even those that are around and happened to listen, uncomfortable.

And on top of that, she is obsessed with me. That may sound exaggerated, but it's true. When we were younger, she used to follow me everywhere. At school, in the park, even when I was going home! And when I had the luck to spot her behind a bush or a wooden bench, she would just casually start making conversation, while fluttering her eyelashes in an unnecessary manner.

And now she lives in an apartment block. And because of that, I am lucky. Not cause I stay with her over the night, but because my friends live there too. Suigetsu stays at 6, while Juugo stays all the way up to 10. I really don't mind to walk up the stairs, even if sometimes there will be someone to freak me out.

Like that time when me and Suigetsu were going to see Juugo's new apartment (that happened to be in the same block as Sakura's, what a coincidence) and we had to stay on the stairs more that half an hour because two guys in green jumpsuits were trying to do four hundred push ups. On their fingers! While shouting to each other things like : "That's it, Lee! Let the power of youth explode!" and "Yes, Gai Sensei! And after that, I will do two hundred more squats! And because of the power of youth, I will do them on one leg!"

When Suigetsu asked the guy that looked our age to move a little bit, just so we can continue walking, he told us that if he stops, he will have to start all over again! Crazy!
