Chapter 1- Childhood Sweetheart

"Ne, ne! Sasuke-kun! My daddy said we are going to meet a new friend tomorrow!" Sakura exclaimed excitedly at her raven-haired friend.

"New friend? Who is it?" 5 years old Sasuke asked innocently.

Sakura made a thinking pose, which made Sasuke blushed because he thought she looked so cute.

"Hmm… if I'm not mistaken, his name is something like… Naruto!" She answered cheerfully.

Sasuke pouted when he heard her talking about another boy's name. He pretended to continue with his toy dinosaur. Suddenly, a mischievous idea popped into his mind and he smirked evilly.

Sakura kept on ranting about the 'Naruto' boy until she saw Sasuke took her favourite plushie and used his toy dinosaur to 'bite' the poor bunny plushie, making dinosaur-like noise and laughed. Sakura's emerald eyes widened and she scolded Sasuke for doing violent things towards her bunny. She tried to get it back but Sasuke ran away before she could snatch it from his tiny hand.

Sasuke laughed at how Sakura was chasing him from behind, both of them running around in Sasuke's huge room. Sakura nearly stumbled a few times and she started to cry when she couldn't get her plushie back. She stopped chasing him and sat on the floor, her fists on each side of her eyes and cried.

Sasuke flinched when she started crying so loud. "Oh, man. I was just kidd-"

The sliding door snapped open and Itachi came to look at the two kids. Sasuke was frozen at the corner of the room with Sakura's plushie in his hand, looking at him with fear and guilt. Sakura was sobbing at the floor and slowly calmed down when she saw him there. Itachi sighed. He was grateful that nobody was hurt. He walked to Sakura and kneel in front of her. He gave her a gentle smile and patted her head softly.

"What's wrong, Sakura-chan? Did Sasuke hurt you?" he asked calmly.

Sakura wiped her tears away and shook her head. "No he didn't. He took my bunny and he made his Dino-chan bite my bunny."

"It's name is not Dino-chan!" Sasuke shouted exasperatedly. His cheeks puffed like a blowfish when Itachi gave him a glare, acting like he was sulking.

Itachi turned back to Sakura and stroked her pink hair lovingly. "Don't worry, Dino-chan will never be able to hurt your bunny as long as I'm here. Okay?" he smiled at the little pink-haired girl.

Sakura blushed and grinned widely at him. She was always mesmerized by Itachi's charisma. She always thought that Itachi was her prince because he will always be there to save her from Sasuke's mischief.

"Now, now, Sasuke. Return Sakura's bunny or I'll hide Dino-chan away from you when you were asleep. Apologize to her now." Itachi said nonchalantly.

"Tch." With a frown, Sasuke walked towards Sakura and returned her bunny. "It's not Dino-chan, nii-san. It's name is-"

"Hello…! Back to earth to Sakura-channnn?"

Sakura yelped when she saw Naruto's face was right in front of hers with a wide grin. Her hand automatically moved and slapped his face and sent him lying on the floor. Sakura blinked a few times before her brain finished processing. Did she slap Naruto, her best friend just now? She took a peek beside the cafe's table and saw Naruto rolling on the floor, both hands trying to sooth his painful cheek.

"Serve you right! Why did you shout in front of my face like that?" Sakura muttered with gritted teeth in both anger and embarrassment.

Naruto who has already seated in front of Sakura grinning as always even though sometimes his eyebrows would twitch at the stinging pain.

"You were spacing out and didn't even realize that I was standing in front of you for five minutes."

"F-five minutes? What were you thinking you're doing?"

"I was the one who should ask that, Sakura-chan." Naruto sweat dropped.

"Sorry." She murmured and pouted. She could see her hand mark on Naruto's cheek.

"So, where's Teme? He's not here yet?" Naruto looked around the café but saw no one except the maids and butlers.

"Ahh… your maids and butlers won't leave you alone huh?" he grinned when the maids and butlers bowed at him.

"Geez. I told them to leave me alone, but they kept on saying 'If we leave Milady, Haruno-sama will definitely scold us' or 'Haruno-sama will slaughter all of us if something happen to Milady'… I wonder why daddy did that." Sakura sighed.

Naruto laughed loudly. "Your dad sounded like a mafia leader!"

Naruto stopped laughing when he saw Sakura's glare of death.

Sakura glanced at the window and hoped that Sasuke would come soon. She needed to tell both of them something really important today.

Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke are the heirs of their father's legacy. Sakura's father owns famous hotels and restaurants all over the world. Naruto's father owns famous shopping malls all over the world, and Sasuke's father owns famous modeling agency and a few private islands here and there. Being born in rich families are great, but surely you would love some privacy in certain times. For example, now.

"Sakura, tell your maids and butlers to leave, now!" Sasuke grunted in annoyance once he reached the five-star café reserved only for the three of them today.

"Ah, you finally came, Sasuke-kun!" Sakura chirped happily.

"Teme! I can't believe you were late two minutes than me! Did you get caught by your fan girls out there?" Naruto teased with jerked brows.

"Shut up, Usuratonkachi. You were just lucky to be a bit early than me. If only mother didn't catch me to be her model…" he murmured to himself.

"Ehh… Mikoto-san finally succeeded to force you to become her model, huh? That's great!"

Sasuke's brow twitched. "Hell no!"

"Sakura-chan, I want a big bowl of ramen!"

"There's no ramen in Italian restaurant, dobe."

"What's the big deal, Teme? You know we can order whatever we want in Sakura-chan's restaurant, right?" Naruto glared at Sasuke furiously.

"True. I just want to tell you that we're not in an appropriate restaurant to eat ramen, you usuratonkachi." Sasuke snickered in further annoyance.

"Calm down, both of you. I had something important to tell you." Sakura said rather softly despite her exasperation at both of her best friends.

Both Naruto and Sasuke who were seating next to each other turned their face away from each other.

Sakura sighed. They never really get along well, but she knows that they will help each other, giving supports when needed. She smiled. They've been good friends since they were five and now they're already nineteen. How time flies!

"What is it that you want to tell us, Sakura-chan?"

Sakura fidgeted. She blushed and lowered her head, causing her bangs to cover her beautiful blushing face.

"Sakura?" Sasuke called when he noticed her face turned red.

"I'm… engaged." She murmured.

"WHAT?" both Sasuke and Naruto shouted in disbelief.

"To Gaara-kun." Her face turned deeper shade of red.

"WHHAAATTTT?"
