staring

We were in a library, doing a project together for History, when I noticed him looking at me rather intently. He had his left hand under his chin and his right hand, which held a black pen, tapped the object onto the edge of table.

I raised an eyebrow at his apparent interest in my . . . well, in my face, I guess.

"Why are you staring?" I asked, quite uncomfortable by his gaze. Who wouldn't be, anyway? This was Uchiha Sasuke we were talking about, and many girls would fight to be in my shoes right now, being watched by this boy.

He had always been the popular one, anyway—captain of the school's varsity soccer team, an honor student (of course, coming after Shikamaru and me on third place), and the son of the school chairman. The school population knew him to be wealthy and irresistibly handsome, with quite the attitude, however, and he could charm girls without even trying.

I was, on the other hand, a mere commoner with a simple goal in life. I was not as pretty as Yamanaka Ino, but almost everyone found me unique with my weird combination of pink hair and green eyes.

But this all still boiled down to one thing.

Uchiha Sasuke was really, really staring at me.

"Do I have to have a reason to stare at you?"

I shook my head, a smile forming on my lips. I looked back at my work before turning back to him. "I was just wondering. Who knows, right? Maybe you start falling for me because you look at me so intensely—if you do, I'll laugh really hard at you."

The Uchiha seemed to find this amusing for he smirked and turned back to his work. It had been silent the next few minutes before he broke the silence with the words . . .

"Then start laughing now."

And when I looked up, he was gazing once again at me with the same intensity as before.
