Bus Conversation[SasukeXTenten]

[Uchiha Sasuke]

"May I sit here Sasuke?"

Sasuke turned to the voice, and was suddenly glad for his good grip on his emotions. He knew the voice, and maybe, just maybe, his heart might have skipped a beat. It came from Tenten.

"Sure."

-In-

Maybe? That skip could have sent you into a coma! Look, stop hiding it from yourself, because your failing. You know you like her. Now is the perfect chance!

Care to explain? Not that I wanna know...

It's a festival! Boys ask girls on dates and enjoy the festival with them! It's like 2+2=5!

It equals 4 idoit!

Same difference! Just ask her! You don't even have to ask her! Just say she looks nice in her kimono! It will make her day!

What?!

DO IT!

-Out-

As Tenten sat down, Sasuke turned his face to her. "You look nice in your kimono, Tenten."

He turned his face back to the window. Why did I listen to him?! But he knew the reason.

Because he was right. He knew his feelings.

[Tenten]

Tenten kept her head down, as she sat down. Now that she thought about it, maybe going on this trip wasn't going to be so bad. Yeah, it'd be tons better if they didn't have to dress the way they did...but guess that's the price to pay for going on this trip. Honestly, she didn't even see how it was part of school. Whatever works I guess.

"You look nice in your kimono, Tenten."

Tenten looked up and over to Sasuke. It surprised her. She looked back down to her outfit then back up. Sasuke was now looking out the window. Maybe it was better like that. She didn't want him to see the red flowing into her face.

Tenten blush? That's not something you see often. Another thing for possible blackmail.

It did make her smile though. "Really? Thanks." She laughed a bit. "I hate it." She made a face but smiled again. "You look nice in your Kimoto too."

[Uchiha Sasuke]

He looked back at her, this time his mouth agape. She thought he looked nice in it. But why was it different coming from her than the other girls?

-In-
Love, love, love, Sasuke's in love love love....

Quiet, you-

Sasuke and Tenten sitting in a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

-Out-

Sasuke would have slapped himself if Tenten wasn't there.

Dude, your staring. Sasuke quickly averted his gaze. Now with his face to the window, she couldn't see his face. For the first time since his parents death seven years ago, he had blushed. To bad she could probably see the reflection of it.

Oh well.

As soon as the heat in his face was leaving, he turned back to Tenten. He chuckled. "I don't exactly like mine either."

"So, what are you planning to do at the festival?" He said, a rare smile staying on his face.

[Tenten]

Tenten still smiled a bit. Though after Sasuke started to stare, she was a bit confused, losing the smile for a moment. He had suddenly moved his gaze away, and turned towards the window. I must need glasses or something.... She resisted the urge to rub her eyes. In the window reflection-even with the dull lights in the bus-she thought she saw Sasuke blush.

Tenten mentally rolled her eyes at herself. Uchiha Sasuke? Blush? Yeah right. She really needed those glasses. Or contacts...contacts. She'd look weird with glasses. She stopped that stupid train of thought and focused again. Low and behold, when he turned back to her, he had a smile. A small one but it was defiantly there. It made her smile grow again.

"So, what are you planning to do at the festival?" He had asked her.

She shrugged and started to play with her long sleeve. "Don't know. Just wander around until I find something I guess." She said. "You?"

[Uchiha Sasuke]

His smile shortened a bit. "Nothing here, maybe just walk around or eat something." His face shifted abruptly back to his emotionless state, as he looked out the window. Yet he continued to talk with Tenten.

"I'll probably stop by the lakeside. Fond memories there." He wondered.

-In-

She probably doesn't want to know. Besides, it will only bother her more. It's my problem, I deal with it.

But if she really like you, she wouldn't care. Right?

I'm not listening to you any more.

I got you this close to a kiss!

What?!

-Out-

"That's all I really plan to do."

[Tenten]

Tenten's own smile lessened as she saw Sasuke put up his regular, emotionless face. She nodded all the same and looked forward. The bus was well on it's way. She didn't know when, but they would probably get there soon. She felt her self perk up at that thought, dispite herself.

Though, She couldn't help but wonder, what Fond memories had Sasuke been talking about? After thinking about it...she settled on, it was none of her buisness to ask, even if she was beyond curious. Like, way beyond.

She continued after a moment of silence. "The lake sounds nice. Do you mind if I come along?" She asked smiling. For some reason, she always liked relaxing by the lake.

[Uchiha Sasuke]

"Do you mind if I come along?"

-In-

She loves you! She totally loves you!

No she doesn't....

She just asked you on a date, idiot! She wants to spend time with you.

How do you know she just has nothing better to do?

Sasuke, sasuke, sasuke...what am I going to do with you? She WANTS to stay with you. Otherwise she'd be going with that other emo, whatshisname, Neji! Now say yes!

-Out-
Sasuke looked at Tenten. "Sure, why not." He felt the edges of his mouth curl up. Here comes the another smile.

[Tenten]

"Sure, why not."

Tenten looked towards Sasuke again. She was surprised-again-to see that he had the start of a smile. Wow, twice in one day. Maybe you don't need to get glasses. She smiled back at him.

"Cool. Thanks-" She was cut off by the screech of the brakes as the bus pulled to a stop. She looked forward, then past Sasuke and out the window. "Guess we're here," She said.

She looked foward to see all the Chaperons repeating the rules and times to check in. She rolled her eyes. Like any highschool kid would obey that stuff. Like her, most probably just planned to go around and have fun, not stop anywhere to learn something 'educational'.

After they were finished she grinned and slid out of the seat, motioning Sasuke to get off too, and left the bus.
