I DO NOT OWN NARUTO! *sadly*

Sakura Haruno stood in front of the small funeral precession. She was wearing a long black silk dress with black heels and gloves, her bubble gum pink hair was pulled tightly into a bun, her eyes were rimmed with thick black eyeliner and mascara. She looked over all the people that was friends of her family and began to speak. "Thank you all for gathering here on this day. I want to tell you all the wonderful things about my mother that made her who she was." Her voice broke as a tear rolled down her cheek. "She was a good, no, a wonderful woman. She would help out people she hardly knew just because she wanted to see them find the right path. She wouldn't accept money no matter what. She had a beautiful and gentle heart, a contagious smile and a gorgeous soul. She was the only person who could bring a smile to my fathers stern face." Quiet laughs broke out through the crowd and her father, who was standing next to her, squeezed her shoulder to a point were it hurt. She didn't flinch. Not on this day. "She was taken to soon. At the age of 36 she hardly lived. The moment we found out about the accident it was already to late. She was gone but her spirit lives on. I want to recite a poem to end my speech.

'If tears could build a stairway
and thoughts a memory lane
I'd walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again
No Farewell words were spoken
No time to say good-bye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why.

My heart's still active in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.
But now I know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store.

Since you'll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today
A hallowed place within my heart
Is where you'll always stay.

God knows why, with chilling touch,
Death gathers those we love so much,
And what now seems so strange and dim,
Will all be clear, when we meet Him.
I Knew you for a Moment.'

"I love you mommy..." Sakura sobbed as she placed a single white rose on her mothers coffin. Hours passed as the girl stood next to her father in the pouring rain, neither spoke a word. Sakura gave a shaky sigh and walked to her car. She didn't even look back to see if her father was leaving. She didn't care. She would be leaving soon for college and she didn't want to end her stay in her hometown with bruises and broken bones. She slid into the black Volkswagen Beetle and just stared out the tented window. She didn't cry, she didn't smile, all she did was stare at nothing. After a few minutes she started the bug and drove away from the grave yard. She passed her house not needing to stop for anything and continued driving out of town with her radio blasting Rescue Me by Tokio Hotel.

Singing along at the stop light she managed to get the people in the car next to her to stare. 'So much for being silent.' Her inner self said as she impatiently tapped her foot on the black space below her causing a migraine for the pinkette. 'If you don't stop tapping your damn foot I'm going to lock you away in the forbidden zone.' Sakura thought as she slowly rubbed her temples. The tapping stopped right as the light turned green. 'Onward to Konoha.' She thought as the sun slowly descended behind her.

Sakura looked tiredly at the blonde girl behind the counter, it has been eight hours since she left Suna and now all she wanted to do was get her dorm room and fall asleep. But this girl was taking to long with finding the girl in the system. "Um... Ms. Haruno I'm sorry to say this but you were actually put into the males dorm. We don't have any empty rooms here so if you want you can stay at a hotel and the school would gladly pay for it." Sakura's eyebrow twitched as each word passed through her ears. Males Dorm. No empty rooms. Hotel. She just wanted to sleep but someone was out to get her.

"I'll stay in the dorm I am assigned. Just point me to the direction I'll be going." The girl nodded and pointed to the building next door and handed her a piece of paper explaining the situation. She huffed and walked out the building, onto the sidewalk, entered her pass code, and was now staring at a very bored looking brunette guy. "Hi I'm Sakura Haruno and I have a room here." She handed him the paper and watched as he typed away on the keyboard.

"You are in room 327. Third floor. Your roommate is already there so good luck." He handed her the keys and fell asleep instantly. She trudged to the elevator dragging her luggage behind her. She was not in a good mood and whoever her roommate was should better keep his mouth shut. The bell ding and the doors slowly slid open making a whining noise as they did so. She walked quickly down the hall until she was at the very end and was in front of her door. She nervously unlocked the door and was greeted with a muscled chest as she opened it. She looked up and was greeted with a pair of cold, black eyes.
