FIC RATED MA! FIC RATED MA! FIC RATED MA!

Hi there :)

It's been YEARS! Since I last updated something, for now I am going to be putting up a couple of chapters to 2 new stories. When I can finish off an updated chapter to 'Cheat' soon! I promise dear readers that I will update on that soon! Until then, here is a new chapter to my new story "The Ledge"

Summary: Sakura was normally alone, her parents were divorced and she really didn't like her parents asshole partners either. What was suppose to be a life change away, was then turned into a whole lot of hell and something she wish she didn't have to turn to.

The Ledge

Prologue

Narrative Pov

In stories there is always a stereotype in it, like a fairytale stereotype or a relationship stereo type.

Most kids in this world are unhappy with their lives and it shifts them into bad habbits, for example a person who has parents who are divorced. Not all kids are unhappy, some of them are actually happy that they are divorced, but not all people get told as to why these things happen. Just that these people happen to be in the background.

Sakura Pov

So here I am now... On a building that is near collapsing with Kakashi-sensei's dog in a hoodie that I stole before running up this stupid building (Not knowing what the hell is happening), the poor guy was so freightend that he had to dig his small paws into my shoulders! And I am 100% sure that his lil man downstairs is tapping my chest. And i'm still in a dress... I know of all things that I should be thinking of! But It feels like the best thing to think of.

Why I had to come here of all places! Stupid parernts and there assholes and whores! Why I decided to come here I don't know!

Narrative Pov

Sakura was in her room with her babysitter Yamato, he was teaching her how to draw a rabbit with a carrot in his mouth when they hear shouting downstairs.

"What do you mean your going with her" Her mother screams to her father, "It's for work Mebuki! Nothing more, why do you always suspect that something is up! If someone should be suspcious then it should be me then! Who is this Jed character and why does he want you to call" her father screams back.

"He is the guy that was at our wedding! You know your sister's firend! The one who's family owns the fruit and vege delivery company that comes to the resturant!" Her mother begins, "This Shana person came here personally and your daughter answered the door and she ran away crying! She wouldn't even tell me what happend! She rings you 24/7 and comes around making your daughter cry! She had a small red flush on one side of her face!" she says with her hands on her hip

"Well maybe it was an accident! Come on Mebuki you know that Sakura falls occasionally!" Her father says and Sakura upstairs looks to Yamato who goes to close the door and the screams go louder.

"Yyyyammatoo-kun wwhy ddo my pparentss ddoo thattt?" She asks the teen and he just hugs the pinkette who had tears going down her eyes, "I don't know Sakura. But if they do, then you should sing that song that you sang to me today. Just cover your eyes and ears and imagine your singing to a million people in the world" He says and she sniffles as a reply.

Narrative Pov: Sakura 16

9 months ago

16 now and Sakura is a strong, tough independant girl who doesnt give two craps about what happens to her parents! Those idiots can do their own thing, while she does her own. Right now she is on a plane to Konoha, her father moved away when she was 9 and her mother stayed where they were as she was a chef at a famous resturant. Her father who had a masters in Medicine decided to persue into a company in America and went to researching on helping childeren with their nutrition and malnutrition, her mother who was always a chef had gotten a deal to move to La and start her own fusion resturant with the help of an old freind.

Life in Suna was fun, Sakura while having hard times with her mother and her on again off again boyfriend. She decided to take up some time in doing some hobbies, because she loved music and dance, she took the oportunity to go to a prestigous dance academy and did alot of competions. This helping her stay away from the two idiots of not-so much love city, though since that didn't always take the stress away Sakura decided to do a little kick boxing as a way to release the tension that she had. She didn't want to compete, but she loved sparing with a few people she met there.

Now on the crowded plane to the big city, she wondered who this family she was staying with. It excited her that she was starting a new at a new place away from arguing and hardship, she knew in the deepest part of her soul that this was going to be for the better.

"So I know that we haven't gotten a chance to talk during the flight, I normally talk to my neighbours when I am on a flight. It gives the awkwardness a chance to go away and people can settle down. My name is Hatake Kakashi and I work at the infamous T K.I.P.S" Her neighbour says and Sakura steers at him and shakes his hand, "Nice to meet you Hatake-san, my name is Haruno Sakura... And that is all I am going to say, one more thing are you really boasting about teaching there?" She asks and the man just smirks under his mask.

"Well I guess I was right to think that you were interesting! Please call me Kakashi and don't worry, I wouldn't spout anything else about myself either. Also no not really, it's that when I talk to most teenaged girls they go dream mode and I like to test weither a person has the idea to communicate or go man made mode. So weird how society has changed people" The silver haired man says and Sakura nods.

From there on the two went on talking about things, then Sakura in a sort of weird way. Trusted to tell the man about her past, it troubled her that she trusted this man that she may never see again. But then again, she alreay told him of her past about her parents.

After landing and parting ways, Sakura walks with her two big suitcases and two heavy sports bags on each shoulder towards the exit when a man with a security uniform walks up to her.

"Haruno Sakura" He says and she nods, "Please come with me"

Walking down some corridors she was sort fuming that the idiot didn't even ask to help her with her bags. Once he stopped she could see a room down a corridor and she turns to look to the man and he just points to the room and she carries on confused.

"Ah Sakura-chan how are you sweet heart!" A women says happy hugging her the second she walks through the room, and she freezes instantly not knowing what to do.

'Wow, we are a fighting machine and the second a mad women comes and hugs us we freeze!' Inner Sakura says and Sakura doesn't know what to say back.

"Mikoto let the girl go, your chocking her. Plus I think she doesn't know who we are"A deep voice behind her says and she feels herself be pulled up and Sakura looks around shocked.

"You have got to be joking..." The pinkette whispers to the three adults in the room, "Your not going to scream are you" The youngest of 21 in the room says and the teenager just shakes her head.

"Ah, I'm sorry. I don't know if I'm suppose to be here" Sakura says with a awkward smile, the women smalls abit "Don't worry, as if you don't need to know what my name is I am going to tell you anyway. My name is Uchiha Mikoto, over there is my husband Fugaku and also my eldest son Itachi. We are really old friends of your parents and they said you wanted to carry on with your education here, so we wanted to repay them with letting you stay with us. You have the best education that matches your grades, which I am not suprised that you have both of your parents smarts and the courage to go out and put yourself out there with dance" She begins, hundreds of quiestion marks go across Sakura's head.

"Wow, Thank you I guess. I just wish my parents gave me the heads up that I was going to stay with your family, I just feel that since your whole family is so busy that I'm just going to be in the way" The pinkette starts off as a man comes in and grabs Sakura's bags and she watches confused, "Don't worry about that Sakura, we have a big house as you might already know. You can study at school and do whatever. Just tell us if you want things toned down abit" Mikoto says guiding her out the door and out to a golf cart with a trailer that her bags in.

Walking out to another room she sees that there was 2 cars with tinted windows waiting, "Miss when you are ready" A man says bowing near the door that she was standing in still and she hastily makes her way to it.

At Uchiha Mansion

Sakura's first thought of the place as they entered the gated compund was how big and wide it was.

"OMG! Is that a 1964 Mochizuki Original" Sakura gasps and Itachi chuckles, "Didn't pick you to be a motor type girl Sakura-san" the man says and Sakura looks to him and blushes slightly. She was in a white singlet with a white cotton kimono cardigan with dark blue patterns on it and black skinny jeans with some black pumps.

"Yeah, I get that alot. I love the feeling of a good old fashioned car and motorcycle, though a good shopping spree and spa does sound good now and then" She says laughing and the man rolls his eyes, "So who owns it?" she asks

"My younger brother does, I baught it for him from a man in America who had it from when he was here from the second world war. He loves it too much, consider's it the only thing in the world more important then his dear old Nii-san" Sakura laughs as he holds his hands over his heart, "Well I'm honeslty not ready to meet him yet, I'm not one of those people who judge by others judgements. It just sucks that your whole family is judged so much, especially your brother and his friend's. Felt even more sorry with his girl friend, she is really pretty!" Sakura begins and Itachi scoffs.

"That idiot brother of mine! Half of the things that are written are true! Like that time that we had to save his ass from this idiot fangirl who said that she was having his child, honestly her parents were trying to get 100,000 off of us and 1,000 every week for child support! Plus do not start with Karin! The girl is honestly hell on wheels, I add horns on every newspaper that I get and send a photo to my brother. She was so clingy, everytime that my brother braught her over she would try to get his attention and some of the time he wouldn't give it. And when he was gone, she was haywire on my friends, Sasuke's friends and myself!" Itachi explains as they stop from the front of the entrance to the house.

"Wow that takes my judgement rule out of the way! I can not even imagine meeting her! Geez why is he even with her then" Sakura says getting out of the car and she sees him shrug.

Walking around she sees what looked like the staff of the house.

"Everyone I want you to meet our newest house member, she will be living with us until she graduates with Sasuke. Sakura this is our head of staff. If you need anything from in the kitchen then just push the number 6 and then 122, or for house keeping do the same and then 123. Kito and Cara, please take Sakura to the suite closest to Itachi and Sasuke" Fugaku says and Sakura nods to that and the man Kito and the girl Cara grab her bags.

"Oh, and when your ready we will talk about designing your room! I want to see what you want, and don't worry about your uniform or textbooks. Your mother did everything really early. Just get yourself tucked in! Itachi show her around after" Mikoto says as they walk through the entrance and they see small koi ponds on either sides of them before going walking over a bride.

Taking her shoes off at the entrance, she carries on and sees a photo of the Uchiha family and she sees the youngest in all his glory.

'Damn those eyes are like glaring thorough us!' Inner Sakura says and she shivers alittle.

Walking she sees some stairs and she follows Itachi to her room, walking inside she only gasps out in shock.

"This is my room! This is like a studio apartment in here!" Sakura says and she hears a laugh behind her, but she ignores it.

Walking on she looks to the bed and nearly fainted and jumps on it and sighs.

"I could totally get use to this" She mumbles into the bed and turns around and looks to the ceiling and notices a rectangle in it, "Just sit up and press the down button, its your tv thats in there. And also on there is the lighting dial, the curtain adjuster, the bluetooth in wall speaker and intercom to the front door. It also shows the camera from the front so you can see who it is" Itachi explains and Sakura opens and closes the curtains and turns the lights off.

"Over here is your blanket box, Kaa-san says that she told your mother that you wouldn't need your blankets from home unless you wanted. So if you wanted to put them anywhere, then put them in your blanket box at the foot of the bed, you've got your small study over here with some new stationery that Tou-san stocked for you" He says then walks over to a door near the desk, "Then over here to your wardorbe" He says and she runs over and opens the door and nearly squeals.

The room was empty but she knew by the time she graduated,the whole room would be filled with the best clothes in all of Konoha.

"I can't believe I live here!" She whispers and Itachi carries on, "What else is here! A candy bar!" She says and walks to him and he laughs.

"Honestly the brain teenagers have amazes me! No it's your bathroom, you have your own en suite. If it isn't much notice we have this thing for not sharing. Plus, the candy bar is downstairs near the movieroom" He explains and Sakura nearly faints, "Wow! This is so cool! How do you get use to this life!" Sakura says looking to him as she turns away from thinking of a nice long soak in the flash pearly white tub that was now behind her.

"In all honesty, I sort of hate it. Living in the spotlight, I wish that I had a small life lived like your own. Though the only attention I would want is for my family to be happy" Itachi begins and Sakura gives him a small smile, "Sorry for asking Itachi-san"

"Oh don't worry about it Sakura-san, we all have our little desire's and dreams. Anyway lets get on with the tour, then maybe you can sit back and breath. I would hold it though, because if your like this with your room then I think you'll need like a inhaler for the rest of the house" Sakura laughs as she thanks the staff by her bed and goes off.

With Sasuke

All the way at Konoha Idustries Private School, the youngest Uchiha was in his shorts practically dripping in sweat with his eyes glaring through a cartain blondes head.

"Don't think you can screw me over now Teme!" The blonde screams, the Uchiha just smirks. "Always the optimist dobe!" he says and double steps him before jumping for a slam dunk and score!

"Ah! You cheated you stupid Teme!" The blonde screams on the floor, the Uchiha above him still hanging onto the hoop lets go and gives his best friend a hand up, "Well dobe your just a bad loser as always, or maybe just always was a dead last loser" he mutters and his freind scoffs.

"Yeah that is exactly what we need to be seeing out there Uchiha. Naruto, try to be a bit more flexible and try to imitate what your opponet is doing. We have just under 2 week until the start of the new season, as Juniors you want to help knock out our enemies. Suna High and Rock High are our main targets for this season, there captians are aparently ruthless and have family background so we have to be ready!" There couch says with his clipboard in his hand.

"Coach no sweat! Once they know our captian is as badass with the BIGGEST history of all then we will wipe their asses clean with the Championship Trophey!" Kiba says and the team members clap Sasuke's shoulder, "Yeah and don't forget who single handedly stole both schools mascots and made both of them look like idiots!" Another guy says and they laugh over the memory.

"I'm sorry who was responsible for that" Coach says and the room goes quiet, rolling his eyes he blows his whistle "Ok that is all for practice, I expect 200% at practice tommorow straight after school. We will be using the hall with the cheerleaders so please don't be stupid, because if something stupid happens then at the end of practice how many times your hormones stop off you will be doing death strokes! Am I clear!" The coach says sternly and the team shivers and nods, "I SAID AM I CLEAR!" he screams and they all stand up.

"YES COACH!" They scream back and the coach smirks, "Good, now hit the showers. I don't want you all missing out on dinner, your to be all stocked up and fully slept for a good days of school tommorow. For those having that science test tommorow good luck" he says and they all move away to the showers.

"Nice move on the Death Strokes Coach, I would say that they would need it. They have their coaches urges" A women says wrapping her arms around his torso, "Well your girls are the same, if I don't remember Coach Yuhi. You were the same with a very similar handsome man who was in the basketball team here" The coaches laugh together and grab the basketball gear and put it in the shed.

In the locker room

"So where we off to after this Teme" Naruto asks the Raven haired teen who was putting his shirt on, "Dobe we are not going off to Ichiraku, were going straight back to mine remember. Kaa-san says that we have to home early for dinner, apparently we have someone coming over"

"Really! So like not even for like 10 minutes" The blonde pouts to him, Kiba hits the back of his head, "Idiot stop acting like a girl or we really will need to kick you out, for all we know you could have been doing something stupid" the brown haired boy says and Naruto punches him in the gut.

"Asshole! Well fine whatever then, stupid person better be worth it" Naruto mumbles.

At mansion

Sakura Pov

To think that I am actually going to be living here for the next two years!

My very own suite! My very own place to relax!

It had a giant lounge, a small library with study. It had three offices, a huge kitchen (Which in all honesty I am happy I can raid stuff from here, the cupboards is fulled with a shit load of cereals and biscuits. Plus they have like a separate fridges for liquids, fruits and veges from around the world and meats. They have like 4 powder rooms, 8 suites including the master (which I never wanted to look in because that is CEO Private business in there). There is also a gym and yoga/meditation room. There was the confectionery bar in the basement room that was right next door to the movie room that could house up to 13 people! Itachi played a music video of a band and you wouldn't have noticed if the world was dying down here, it was just like the movies being in here. Onward there was a wine cellar that Mikoto-chan was in, she was on her phone and a class of red wine was out and a small platter was there also.

Outside was just as awesome, there was a outdoor sheltered shack that had a bartender and chef in, it had a barbecue and a pizza oven inside as well as fire pit. The pool outside from it was long, had from the shallow end poles sticking out from the ground and a net hanging in the corner as well as hoops. The deep end had a diving board which looked aheap of fun. Walking on Sakura saw that the gardens that she read about in a magazine was just as divine up close, you would think here was heaven. The gardens smelled so much of pollen and the fresh mowed lawn smell wafted around her, lucky shes never had hay fever or she would never come out here. Carrying on she sees a golf course far away from her. Apparently whenever Fugaku and Mikoto were off work they would hold a party and have friends come over and people would be sprawled allover the compound. Then walking on abit more there was the tennis court, basketball court and outside volleyball turf.

"Wow! It seems to be the only thing that can come out of my mouth first! Wow!" Itachi laughs at the comment when they walk back to inside the house and still gaps, "So now that the tour of the famous Uchiha mansion is done, you can get to doing whatever you want. Dinner is always at 6:30, so always be there unless you want your dinner to be cold and as father said. If you need anything then use any phone in the house and dial the numbers" Sakura nods Itachi and thanks him for everything and goes back to her room.

Sitting on the ground she opens one of her suitcases and sees a bikini that she thought she would never need to use, so she thinks of taking advantage of the pool and sun outside and takes the chance to use it.

With Mikoto and Fugaku

Narrative Pov

In Fugaku's office, Mikoto sits directly infront of him where he was seated in his boss chair.

"I am so happy that Sakura was here! I'm glad the she is away from all that negativity, just sad that Mebuki hasn't seen what an idiot that guy is! The last time she called me she said 'Have an eye for Sakura ok, and I mean not in the overprotective way. I mean watch her, shes tried telling me countless of times how I have done a million things wrong and she won't stop till its done. I admire her determination, but she has the will of her father'" Mikoto says sadly, "I don't get why you worry Mikoto, that isn't any of our business. If Mebuki makes a decision on wanting to be with this man then so be it, if its done then let carry on" her huband says to her and she pouts.

"But Fugaku you don't understand! When we last went over to see Mebuki she told us that her and that idiot had gone off doing god knows what! He's messing with her dear! She told me to leave it, but I can't just ignore it any longer" The women says standing and goes to sit on her husbands lap, said man sighs and wraps his arms around her, "What do you want me to do about it dear" he mumbles and she smiles brightly.

THE END

A.N: So what do you all think? I honestly thought that this shit cop out story will make you all forgive me for not updating 'Cheat'...

Mind the spelling mistakes and the grammar that is wrong...

Sorry guys -.-'
