Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Ridding Me of You ❯ Chapter Three: Why are You Like That? ( Chapter 3 )

Author's Notes:

 

It was requested for me to continue with the flashbacks but not too much of them in such a way that this fic would turn up to be more of a past thing than a present thing...okay that got me confused as well....anyways...i'll stick to the subject matter of how sakura tries to --futilely--get rid of her infatuation with naruto...i'll just use flashbacks to establish why she became obsessed with him in the first place

 

DISCLAIMER:

It would have been my ultimate pleasure to tell you that I do not own naruto, but then again it leaves such an awful taste in my mouth it's nothing short of foulsome whenever I say it. but, nonetheless, i do not own naruto. pleh.yuck.gross

 

Ridding Me of You

Chapter Three: Why are You Like That?

Sakura's bashing and teasings most definitely are already facts of his life, however, it seems like she is trying to be extra obnoxious for today. He doesn't know if it's him or he's just imagining the whole gang up on Naruto thing, but there is definitely something going on around here.

 

She had started with her usual don't you dare come near my personal space or else I am going to knock your socks off attitude when they met up on their favorite bridge, waiting for their sensei to arrive. After an hour's worth of waiting (surprise, surprise) their sensie is not there yet and he is complaining as usual because of their sensei's tardiness--loudly, of course so he could get Sakura's attention and incite her to join him in his lamentation.

 

He was successuful enough in this endeavor. She joined him in his verbal bashing and she even helped contribute in the things that they should do to their sensei so he would finally value 'promptness' and arrive (like what normal people do) at the time they have settled to meet up.

 

"We should give him a thousand year's of pain whenever his late!" He declared as he punched his left palm using his right hand.

 

Sakura vehemently nodded her head at this. "I'll hold him--no,no, me and Sasuke will hold him while you stick his ass up with the largest log we could find on this place!"

 

"We will make him remove his mask so all the fangirls would descend upon him and ravish him on the street!"

 

Sakura quirked her eyebrows as a snort of laughter bubbled out of her. "Anko-san would be horrific enough to do that honor for us!"

 

Naruto grinned, very much pleased to see the gaiety reflected on her eyes. "Here's a thought. So that Kaka-sensei would NEVER EVER EVER be late again, why don't we latch a long enough cord to one of his limbs, tie the end of that cord to the both of us, so in the event that he gets decides to be late again, we would just haul him here!."

 

In a blink of an eye, Sakura's smile transmuted itself to a glare and the glare started to incinerate his person. Very pissed off by what he said (though he personally do not know what's the problem with what he said), she stomped her way to his direction (he could have sworn the ground shook as she did this) and ground her forehead against his hitae-tai.

 

"What in the world made you think that I would agree to that?!" she snarled. She grabbed the front of his shirt and shoved him roughly away.

 

Naruto could only give her a non-plussed look, entirely perplexed by her actions. For someone who bothered walking that two meter distance between them, she sure isn't making sense when she moved him away from her. Not wanting to get into the details of what caused this, he simply continued with their ealier diatribe and hoped that Sakura would regain her humor back.

 

"Why not make him pair up with Sasuke, then you and take them both down until their just pitiful could-no-longer-identified craps on the ground?" he suggested, giving her an impish grin.

 

Naruto could have sworn that his statement is innocent enough and, for any normal person, this should only have had impelled either a zealous agreement (much like what Lee would have done) or a scoff of 'right whatever'.

 

What he totally did not expect was Sakura's enraged "I DO NOT LIKE YOU THAT MUCH NARUTO!"

 

He let that one strange, very, very befuddling event pass him when their sensei chosen that very second to arrive. He would have continued to let it sit in the recesses of his mind but it kept tickling his awareness everytime Sakura nudged him roughly by her elbow, smacked him on the head, shoved him from the back when he had lagged behind, poked him on the side when his mind was once again drifting off to space-verse.....

 

She just kept physically abusing him.

 

Touching him.
