“There you are!”

Usagi sighed and put down her binoculars. It was Kiba and Shikamaru. Again.

“How come you guys keep on following me? I guess its true that ninjas really do have no lives outside their work,” she propped up her elbow on the table and put her head in her hand.

“He wants you back.”

“Who does? Cause I'm kind of busy here getting that guy to back his thing up to my sidekick,” she pointed across the street to Hinata and her date.

“Hinata-chan? What's she doing over there? And who's that?” Kiba said in disgust.

“That is Hinata-chan's date Toshiya.”

“You do know she likes Naruto right?” Shikamaru noted.

“Don't care. He works in the hospital, the children's ward. So that's major brownie points on Hinata's list. I'm very proud I found him looking so heartbroken last week.”

“Proud of the guy you picked? Last week? Heartbroken? Usagi what'd you do to this innocent?”

“Nothing I swear. He was down on his luck. Actually he couldn't pay for his groceries so I helped him out. His debt is repaid by going out with Hinata. Can you see the glow in her cheeks?”

“Stop changing the subject. Sasuke's in love with you.” He didn't know how many times he was going to say that.

She crossed her arms and legs, “Isn't that Fan-fucking-tastic,” she said sarcastically.

“Come on Usagi, he really is in love with you.”

“No he's not.”

“Seriously he does. I wrote a list on how we could tell,” Shika handed her the filled up paper.

Usagi was impressed, front and back, “Shika you're getting too many details from Uchiha. Are you sure you're not gay?”

“The list definitely proves Sasuke's in love with you,” Kiba said, not taking his eyes off Hinata's date. Memorize his face Kiba and he better hope not to cross your path between Hinata and you in a dark alley.

“Let me just kick up my knees and shout Hooray,” Usagi threw her hands up, “So what. Who cares about Uchiha? I'm not gonna start singing `I'm in love with a ninja' you know.”

Kiba didn't notice the sarcasm, “At least stay with him then. Who knows what could happen with a heartbroken Uchiha? Suicide, murder, hell he might join Orochimaru again! Or never have sex again! Oh my god!” Kiba could think about this all day and grabbed her arm.

“Shikamaru what do you have to say about this?” Usagi quirked a brow at him.

“He's a fool in love that's all I can say about this. Sasuke's been staying at my place for a week already and he's a terrible roommate.”

“You really want me to go back?” she knew Shikamaru liked order and no mess.

“For Shikamaru's sake yes Usagi! Uchiha's ruining our lives, how can he score any chicks with him in the house?” Kiba asked.

“What's in it for me?”

“What do you want, Shikamaru will get you anything!” Kiba pleaded.

“Stop putting words in my mouth Kiba,” Shika stared at him.

“Anything?” Usagi's smile grew evilly.

Kiba nodded and gasped and growled, “Did that guy just look down Hinata's shirt?” he stood up from the table.

Usagi yanked his jacket and him back on his seat, “Can you not see she's melting the butter on his bread?”

Kiba slow to understand conundrums took it the wrong way, “Wha-? Melting his butter! I don't see no bread on their table,” he snatched the goggles.

`Isn't he Captain Obvious?' she thought.

“I'll go back home,” their faces were the face of accomplishment, “to see if it really is true.”

Kiba and Shikamaru glanced at each other.

“…Right after Hinata finishes her date.”

Kiba growled almost forgetting about Toshiya.

----

Usagi managed to distract Kiba long enough for Hinata and her date to run off somewhere.

Kiba gasped and looked around, “Where'd they go?” it was fortunate for Usagi that Akamaru wasn't with him now.

“They mentioned they were going to get some ice cream,” Usagi pointed in the opposite direction.

Shikamaru and Usagi watched him dash off into the distance.

Shikamaru sighed, “I wonder if he knew that they were just in one right now.”

“You should really get some smarter friends Shika. Let's go, I wanna know where they go next,” she tugged him off.

“Usagi-chan! I..I…” Hinata had a bright smile on her face and also a blush when she held up a piece of paper. It had numbers!

Usagi hugged her, “You're awesome. Great job Hinata! I think you might have to call him later on to thank him for the date.”

Hinata nodded, “I n-noticed Kiba-kun and Shikamaru with you.”

Usagi waved her hand, “They were just saying something about Uchiha's undying love for me that's all.”

“M-maybe he does,” Hinata just loves to be useful.

“I know it isn't love. I checked.”

“Did you really check?”

His squad appeared again crouching.

“Captain, the nightingale has returned to the nest.”

The squad watched his eyes light up for a moment before steeling itself up again.

“Good. You can relieve yourself now.”

“Captain if I may suggest, you should catch her before she flies away again,” he dropped his head lower.

Sasuke glared at the mouse-masked anbu. They poofed out of there. He felt Shikamaru's presence at the door and turned to look at him.

“You should take his advice. You're beginning to be more troublesome than her. Suck it up and go do it.”

----

Sasuke walked slowly home. The usual fan girls were hanging all over him. But he didn't really care to shoo them away because he needed to think. And he certainly couldn't when Usagi was around.

She was something to Sasuke now. When he felt her kiss him goodbye and walk out of the inn room, he wanted to say something, anything to make her stay. And he hated himself for not doing so and then hating himself some more because he thought of it.

He was confused, angry, happy, frantic, and calm all at the same time. Feeling like this, it must be some kind of sign because he's getting all nervous all of sudden. Increased heartbeat, labored breathing, butterflies in the stomach. Sasuke walked faster just in case he was getting sick again.

Yes I did get Toshiya from Dir En Grey.
