Chapter 1
Sakura POV(Always)
Hello there. My name is Haruno Sakura. I like to sleep, eat, read, and watch TV shows/movies.
I am always positive about things.
"No. No. No. No."
I think my parents give me a choice in anything.
"Oh honey, you have no say in this..."
I am very understanding.
"What?!"
"You were going to get engaged someday you know"
I'd like to think I'm smart, considering the fact that I'm an Honors student.
"Yes, but not at this age! And who will I get engaged to, dear mother? Some guy I don't even know? Some rapist? Or a serial killer?! You never know what you find-"
I hate when people tell me to calm down.
"Sakura. Calm down, and think this through."
I am clearly calm.
"I am calm, don't tell me to calm down!"
My parents are my life and so is my cute kitten, Jinx.
"Look, honey, I married your father and I didn't know anything about him. He was very shy, and nice when I got to know him. It's better that way, Sakura. You'll get to know him after you get married."
"But I don't even know who I'm going to marry! What were you two thinking, mom?"
"That's why I said you'll get to know him. Your marriage will be interesting that way, like finding the pieces of a puzzle and putting them together."
Like a fucking puzzle? Is she kidding me?
I am called a drama queen, but I don't think I am.
"You know what? I'm done. Do whatever you want, it's not like anything's stopped you before." I said as I gave up and lay on my soft bed. This was so not a good day for me.
"Honey, please think about it. You're not getting married at this age, you're only getting engaged."
What's the difference...?
I will agree with you if your point is made clearly.
"...Ugh. Fine, I'll think about it." Pffft sure, I'd think about it. I only said that so she'd stop pestering me about this stupid useless shit.
"Okay, take all the time you need. And don't tell anyone." She then got out of my room and I was happy for that.
I was not okay with many things. I was not okay with over-thinking.
I just needed to rest, but I started to think of this engagement thing way too hard. Why did life have to be so hard and stupid? School was horrible today, mostly because of fucking sexy arrogant Uchiha Sasuke. Can't he just leave me alone for once? Why did he have to be so hot? Why did he have to be such a prick? Why did he have to be such a heartbreaker?
I was not okay with falling for the school heartthrob, Uchiha Sasuke. Definitely not okay.
"Ino-"
"OMFG. He is so hot!"
"No, he's no-"
"Have you seen him? Of course you have. Stop fucking lying to yourself."
"I don't think s-"
"But he is though-"
"Fucking Ino! Stop interrupting me." I get so frustrated when I talk to her because all she talks about is Sasuke Uchiha.
What's so good about him?
"Jeez...sorry. You're lying though. You think he's hot too." I rolled my eyes at this. I mean, sure, he was hot. Oh god, yes he was hot but his attitude ruined everything. He had these black-nothing special-eyes, and dark hair. He practically looked like a model or like one of those sexy male prostitutes.
"Being hot is not important. What matters, Ino dear, is having a good attitude, a good heart, a good-"
"We live on Earth, Sakura dear. You know, that place where all those things you listed don't matter because people are too caught up on appearances to even think of those things."
She was right, people are too caught up on appearances. It's sad if you think about it.
"That may be true for some people, but my preferences won't change."
"Whatever, Sakura. You keep those preferences of yours. Let's see if you'll find someone-"
Pause. Is she judging me? Is she, because I think she is. So, because my stupid self can't let herself lose to Ino, I blurted out something my mother told me not to tell anyone yet.
"I'm already engaged!" Okay. Now that was not good, because she was quiet on the other line and I was starting to regret saying what I just said.
"WHAT?!" She shrieked and I almost had to keep my cellphone away from my ear because wow she can make someone deaf with that voice of hers.
"WHY DID YOU NOT TELL ME? OH MY GOD"
Yep, I was totally regretting it. Let's see, I could lie and tell her "Hahaha I was only joking hahaha ha you fell for it" or I could tell her the truth.
Lying, it is.
"I was only joking, Ino. Calm down," I lied. "Come on now, how could you believe that? I joke. A lot."
"You almost gave me a heart attack. I hate you." She's lying. She doesn't hate me, she could never hate me because she loves me too much.
"Hahaha sorry Ino, okay gotta go now." What an actress I am. A very good one. It's either that or Ino believes everything she hears.
"Okay bye!" And then she hung up.
I went over to Jinx to pet him and oh my god he's so cute. And fluffy and adorable and doesn't make my life hell. His purrs were the only thing keeping me calm.
Hey...
You know what? I learned something really important today.
.
.
.
Don't ever bend down to pick up a pencil.(a/n: She says that cause when she did bend down to actually pick up a pencil someone slapped her butt and when she got up to look at whoever did that, she saw no one but Sasuke.)
School should not have been invented. Okay, maybe I shouldn't say that, because then we wouldn't be smart or get anywhere in life. So, sorry for saying that out of the blue.
However, the reason I said that was because I sit next to Sasuke at almost all of my classes. I didn't choose to sit by him, he did, knowing that it would annoy me. It's funny how he thinks he can get any girl he sets his eyes on. Too bad for him, cause he'll never have me. Besides, I'll be engaged soon right?
He doesn't even pay attention in class, but he's still at the top of the class. What's with that? And I'm second. I'm sorry, but I can't accept that. I bet, the only way he is at the top of the class is because he flirts with all his teachers. Then again, I shouldn't judge without actually knowing that.
Right now, he's staring at me while Mr. Kakashi is explaining the lesson. I am paying attention of course. He's not, as always. This annoys me so much.
So I decide to glare at him. In return, he smirked. Wow I just gave him attention. Great job Sakura.
"Haruno. Please pay attention, this will be on the quiz tomorrow." Kakashi said through his face mask. Yeah...
"S-sorry, Kakashi-sensei."
See? He gets special treatment, and I don't. No one else but him.
By the way, he's still staring.
"Stop it." I whispered through clenched teeth. He didn't stop though, instead he replied. Pretty surprising because he almost never replies to anyone.
"I like the view." If you have ever heard his voice, I believe you might be pregnant. His voice is like sex as Ino likes to call it. You're definitely pregnant if you've heard his voice. Congratulations! You're going to have an Uchiha baby.
"W-well, I don't." I turned around and told him that. Why was I stuttering? I don't stutter, Hinata stutters. I told him that, but who am I kidding? I loved the view, just like any other girl.
I think he was going to reply but the bell rang. Thank the lord.
I gathered my things, said bye to Kakashi and went straight for the door. However, someone grabbed my arm and turned me around. Who was it, you might ask? Sasuke. Sasuke grabbed my arm and turned me around, my back hit the lockers and it hurt. How does that happen in those tv shows or books and they do nothing about it. I am about to kill him right now, because that hurt and it's his fault.
I winced at the pain, hoping he wouldn't notice. I didn't want to be thought of as weak.
"What do you want, Uchiha?" I was irritated, and he was ruining my life with his perfection. Being perfect is not okay, it should come with a warning.
"You." I rolled my eyes at what he said. He says to every girl, it's stupid. He then did something that surprised me.
He kissed me.
It's not the first time he's kissed me either.
The first time, was sophomore year, when I was reading a book in the classroom. No one was there because I was always first to come to the classroom to help my teacher out with some stuff. She said she'd get the books we were supposed to read today from another teacher. So, while I waited, I decided to read my book.
Too caught up in the book I didn't notice footsteps, or maybe I did, but didn't think anything of it. Nothing suspicious. Until someone behind me tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around only to be kissed by Uchiha Sasuke. That was my first kiss. He stole my first kiss. That one reason was added to my list of Why I don't like Sasuke.
Back to the present now. I tried to push him off me but he wouldn't budge. Curse men and their strong bodies.
Okay, he should really stop kissing me because I don't think I can breathe. My face was burning from blushing. Sensing that I couldn't in fact breathe, he stopped what he was doing and just walked away as if nothing had happened. I couldn't even move from my spot, the only thing that made me move was the sound of a bell ringing.
'Oh my god! I'm going to be late!' I thought as I quickly ran to my classroom.
Why did he do that? Who does that?
"Haruno! Why are you late?" My teacher decided to scream at me.
"...I was helping a fellow student."
"Aww, now isn't that nice? Sit down." Funny how her face can change from 'aww-ing' to the face of a dictator.
I then took my seat next to Naruto and was thankful that Sasuke wasn't in my next class.
"Sakura, where were you?" Naruto whispered or tried to whisper.
"Uzumaki! Be quiet!"
"Helping a student..." I whispered to Naruto.
He gave me a look of complete disbelief. Okay, what was so unbelievable about that? I help other students...sometimes. Sakura and helping fit into a sentence perfectly. Who was Naruto to judge?
I do help people, right now I am helping Naruto with something he doesn't understand in Chemistry.
Time for lunch.
In lunch, I sit with Ino, Naruto, Tenten, Temari, Hinata, and Sasuke.
Sadly, Sasuke sits beside me and molests me all the time. I think everyone is oblivious of the fact that Sasuke molests me.
This period was over so soon, and next period was gym class. I had gym with Naruto, Ino, Hinata, Temari, Tenten and Sasuke. Great.
I am not about that gym life. Gym is useless, I will not do anything. The only thing that matters is my grade in gym. Why do we have to be graded in gym? I don't know either, young one.
We girls, wear red tank tops and shorts. Boys, wear shirts and sweatpants.
Today, we were going to play volleyball. I can tolerate volleyball, but I was not in the mood to play. But that changed, when the gym teacher said we were going to play girls vs. boys.
I will not let the boys win. Over my dead body, maybe.
Girls team: Me, Ino, Hinata, Tenten, Temari, Karin, and 2 others.
Boys team: Sasuke, Kiba, Naruto, Neji, Shikamaru, Suigetsu, Shino, and Lee.
All the boys were good at everything. They took everything too seriously though. It's not the Olympics, guys. Calm down.(a/n:Wow, look who's talking?)
I gathered the girls in a circle and said some words of wisdom.
"We gotta beat those bitches, because we are women."
"Sakura, that doesn't make sense. Because we are women? Really?"
"Ino! Did I give you permission to speak?"
"I don't need your permission! Who died and made you Queen?"
"Your mom." I didn't pause to look at her face as I continued with my words of wisdom.
"Now let's do it! We have to win for the cats! The dogs! All the animals!"
"Where the hell are you going with this?!" That was Temari's smart ass.
"Temari! Who gave you permission to spea-"
"HARUNO! START THE GAME ALREADY!" Gai-sensei screamed in my innocent ear.
The guys were looking at us and kind of feeling sorry. If they think they're going to win, they must be out of their minds.
I looked at them and gave them my words of wisdom.
"So you think you can win?" What I just said, reminded me of 'So you think you can dance?'
"HARUNO! THIS CLASS WILL BE OVER SOON IF YOU DON'T START!"
The class just started...
"Alright Gai-sensei! Calm down..."
The game started when I served the ball Gai-sensei handed to me. Sasuke, however decided to dunk it down. I was so mad. The boys were high-fiving each other.
Ino was supposed to hit the ball, so I was more mad at her.
"Ino! Why didn't you hit the ball?"
"I thought you were supposed to hit the ball!"
"You were closer to the ball. Now who was supposed to hit the ball again? That's right, you."
"HARU-"
"Okay okay!"
Kiba served this time and it was coming straight at me and the smart Ino decided to hit it this time. Though she did not hit the ball, but my chin. Oh god it hurt like hell.
"INO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
"I'm sorry! Oh my god!"
"Why do you do this to me?" I dramatically fell to the floor. "I thought I raised you well, was it your father who taught you those moves, Ino? Did he tell you to hit your own mother?" I overreacted okay, I'm sorry.
"What the fuck are you talking about Sakura? I'm done with you."
The boys were laughing, and Sasuke looked amused.
"I will win this for the sake of my family!"
Kiba served the ball again, and it went in my direction. I successfully hit it over to the other side and Sasuke hit it back at me. We played like that for like 1 minute. But, he somehow got distracted by something, and didn't catch the ball. The other boys were distracted too by something. Their gazes were directed to me. I was confused.
Ino then pointed with her finger at my shirt.
"Huh?" And I looked down to see that my pretty green bra was showing because my tank top's buttons were undone.
"Oh my god!" I then brought my hands to my chest protectively. My face turned bright red and I quickly buttoned my tank top, then sighed in relief.
"Okay guys! It's just a bra, a protector of breasts. Women have these so called breasts. Men have breasts too. Why can't they feed a child? Why do we-"
"OKAY! THAT'S ENOUGH HARUNO! THE BELL IS GOING TO RING IN 5 MINUTES, SO GO IN AND CHANGE. UCHIHA, AND HARUNO GATHER ALL THE BALLS AND PUT THEM IN THEIR PROPER PLACE."
"Yes Gai-sensei!"
While the others went in to change, Sasuke and I decided to get all the balls. When everyone was out of sight, Sasuke decided to sneak up behind me as I bent down to pick up a ball. Oh my god this position we were in was so weird. He just stood there so close to me, his lower body was close to my butt. I guess my butt was big, because everyone said so.
To get out of this situation, I went to pick up all the other balls that were far away from where Sasuke was. I had all of them in my arms-so did Sasuke-and we threw them in their place. When I turned to leave, he grabbed my wrist and spun me around so that we were facing each other.
"Sas-Uchiha, let go-"
"Why do you always call me that?"
"Because it's your name..." I stated obviously.
"No, my name is Sasuke."
"Okay, great. Now let me go." I didn't even try to break free, because he was stronger than me.
He then pulled me way too close so that our bodies were squished together. Too close. I felt his breath on my ear and then he whispered in that seductive voice of his.
"Next time, call me Sasuke." With that he let go of me and walked away, all I saw was him taking off his shirt midway. Oh god, he had a nice body.
I then went in to change and Ino decided to ask why I was late and red. I just shrugged and went to change. I couldn't stop blushing. Dear lord, help me get through life even with him around.
The girls were always talking about Sasuke, except Hinata, Temari, and Tenten. They're walking in the right path. Hinata likes Naruto, Temari likes Shikamaru, and Tenten likes Neji.
Thank god gym was the last period. I really need a nap. My mom picked me up and asked if I agreed to the engagement thing. I had forgotten about it.
If I accept, Sasuke Uchiha will leave me alone because I'm taken.
If I accept, no more of his games.
If I accept, no more Sasuke.
I looked out the window of the car and felt the soft breeze hit my face. I then replied without hesitation.
"Yes." And my mother smiled at me. If it made her happy, and I would have nothing to do with Sasuke, then it was okay.
