🌸Pretty Girls Lie Pt. 2🌸

[modern AU, angst]

Pretty Girls Lie pt 2.

He slammed the door when he left. I couldn't help but stare. Naruto did too. My body shook. I was so angry. Not at Sasuke, but at myself. I shouldn't have told him that. I reacted before I could really think things through.

He was different from them all. I knew he was. From the moment I met him.

I was talking to my friend about her being the face of her boyfriend's photography company when she stopped me mid sentence to wave someone over. She told me he was staring at me and I honestly didn't care. Not to mention she's been trying to hook me up with guys since my last relationship about three years ago. But still, I put on my best fake smile and introduced myself. He took my hand so gently in his and kissed it, letting his lips linger. His eyes never strayed from mine as he did so, and claimed it was a pleasure to meet me.

We talked for hours he and I. Commenting on the worlds new depiction of what men and women of todays society is supposed to look like and act. Of course both of us felt it was a bunch of bullshit. Everyone wants to be a Kardashian; but them bitches arent even cute. Yeah, I said it. He never once thought my way of thinking was weird. Nor did he try to down play it. He was understanding; agreeing with me on occasions.

He never pressured me for sex. Hell we never even done it yet honestly. Not because we didn't want to, but because we felt it wasnt vital to the relationship.

Huh, relationship. That's what it was. Was.

I love that man. But can I be with him? Absolutely not. I'm a wreck. I'd only damage him in the end. That's all. He'd hate me. Hell, they all do.

"A-Are you okay?" Naruto's raspy voice processed in my brain. My eyes travel up to the blonde. We locked eyes and I lost it. She shook my head frantically and caved letting my tears fall. The room was spinning. My stomach was turning. Everything was becoming dark. Before my knees could fully give out, Naruto caught me in his arms and shushed me.

"He hates me." I sniffle back the tears.

"He doesn't." Naruto coos. "He loves you Sakura. Give it a chance."

I took in a shaky breath.

Some time later.....

Grocery shopping. I hated coming here but I loved cooking the shit and eating it. Ugh.

Heaving a sigh, I looked over the selection of rice. Brown, white, yellow. I told Naruto I'd make dirty rice, seems fair to use brown rice rather than white. Gah!

A chill sudden crept up my spine like someone was watching me. I shimmied it off and continued looking at my selections, grabbing an Uncle Ben's brown rice box and examining it.

"Sakura." My heart jumped. I turned being greeting by those stoic obsidian orbs. That pale porcelain skin and raven hair. God, he's beautiful.

"S-Sasuke." I can barsly contain the shock.

He smiles, god he fucking smiles. I almost drop everything in my hand.

"H-Hey, how are you?"

"G-Goo-Good." I had to shake off the gitters. Something about him is different.

"You grew your hair out!" I quickly pointed it out. He chuckles.

"Yeah." He nods. "I did."

"It's nice." I breathe out.

He blushes. He fucking blushes.

"Thanks." He says softly. He gestures towards me. "Y-You look great as always."

"Thank you."

We stare at eachother. Both of us not wanting to ask the question.

"I-It was nice seeing you." He says with a small smile. He turns to leave.

No.

No.

Say something !

Make him stay. Just for a little longer...

"I-I lied!" I yell. He stops in his tracks. There's a pause. It seems like time stood still. Slowly though, he turns.

"What?" He says shakily. He takes a step forward. I freeze up.

Idiot! Well, there's no turning back now.

"I-I said I lied." I say. "You're brother is right Sasuke. Pretty girls do lie. And that's because we go around finding the good in these douche bags and the one time we actually feel like this could be the one, we're too damaged and rather push them away than pull them closer. I-I'm torn Sasuke, fucked up. B-But everything made sense with you. I-I hate that I told you I didn't love you because I do. I love you so much Sas—"

"Babe there you are!" A girl comes up and kisses Sasuke on the cheek. He stares at me wide eyes and open-mouthed as I look at the two. I couldn't help but close my mouth. She looked over at me then back to Sasuke. She was a fucking barbie. With her blonde hair and turquoise eyes. Her lips full and pouty like Kylie Jenner's. She was greater value Kylie Jenner if she were a blonde.

"Who's this?" She asked Sasuke.

"U-Uh this is Sakura." He says coming out of his trance. "We have a mutual friend, that's all. Good to see you Sakura."

I swallowed the lump in my throat and forced a smile. "Yeah." I say. She pulls him away.

"And this is why pretty girls lie." I say knowing that he was reading my lips when he looked back.
