Sakura Haruno was quite a normal girl, but she had always been a bit more different from the others with her Pink short hair to her shoulders and her awesome grades she got she was usually the smarter in class, everyone wanted help from her about their homework, and they would always tried to take a look at her paper on exams. She never liked cheating but she was a very kind girl and always tried to help others as much as she could.
Sakura Haruno was a quite normal girl, yeah, she always had breakfast before heading for school, she did her homework on time, she watched TV on her free time, she minded her own business.
Thats why she was having a hard time understanding the situation.
"Why ?" She asked to herself often. "Why me ?"
Why am I the one that the mr.-most-popular-guy-in-school asked out. Why did he choose me ?
She always stayed away from popular guys chased by a lot of girls, a lot of girls meant trouble for her, girls were scary, she always had a hard time getting friends. Actually until she met Ino Yamanaka it was like that. They had always made fun of her, teased her because of her wide forehead. One day in kindergarden Ino Yamanaka stood up for her when she realized that she was crying instead of playing everyday that was what she said. Ino intruduced her with her own friends made her feel more comfortable around people. But she still doesn't like to be around a lot of girls, she just has a couple of close friends and that is totally enough for her.
Anyway, she always stayed away from likes of Sasuke Uchiha. She thought they were all about looks and had shallow personalities, they would never understand her way of thinking she would never be natural around them and that kind of relationship she did not want.
It was useless to pretend, she never had something for the Uchiha boy. She realized that he never chatted with the girls around him and never saw him having fun with the guys except Naruto, (She knew him since kindergarden, well everyone knew Naruto he was quite popular in his own way.) Sasuke Uchiha was more like a quiet type, his studies were also very good according to the girls bathroom talk in school. And she even saw him borrowing books from the library a couple of times, she never put a lot of thought in why he borrowed "How To Plant Your Own Healty Tomatoes" kinda book. No, no she never put a lot of thought in anything about him.
And that was not because he never crossed her mind, with that black eyes of his, with that soft looking raven hair of his, of course he did, she even smelled him a little once, while they were at the cafeteria. The line was a nightmare and he was really close, he smelled nice, and the scent of a boy really mattered for Sakura Haruno.
She never put a lot of thought in him because she was afraid, afraid that the boy won't like her back and she might get obsessed with him. A total waste. A total distraction. She didn't need that. That was what she thought back then. But things have changed of course.
That one day.
