Super Chika
Zero.
"C'mon, Haruno, just try it. I know you can do it."
"What the hell do you think I am, Sabaku, Wonder Woman?"
"…Uh…yes…?"
"IWASN'TASKINGYOU, SIAAAA!!!"
"Forehead, calm down!"
"…INO-PIG, HOW THE HECK DO YOU EXPECT ME TO BE CALM???"
"S-Sakura-chan…you can do anything…"
"Yeah! You're our Super Chika!"
"…You have got to be kidding me, Uchiha. You so did not just say that."
"Yeah, well, tch, whatever, Temari."
'…I cannot believe we're arguing about all of this; just accept Ino's dare, Sakura."
"That is so easy for you to say, Tennie!"
"WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?"
"GOD FLIPPING PANCAKES DAMMIT! EVERYONE SHUT UP, SAKURA, ACCEPT INO'S CHALLENGE AND, YOU TWO, SHAKE HANDS!"
"…Oh my god…Hinata just yelled…"
One.
And that was how I, Sakura Haruno, college student, got roped into trying to make a guy fall in love with me, in under two weeks.
It was all my best friend, Ino Yamanaka's, fault.
And, if you're wondering why the heck they asked me-
First off, why wouldn't they? My five besties are just the kind of people to do this to me (with the exception…most of the time…of Hinata). Secondly, they fully, completely, totally believe I can do anything I set my eyes onto.
Hence, the reference to "Wonder Woman" and why Sia calls me "Super Chika".
Before I get any farther, let me introduce you to my friends-
Ino Yamanaka. My best-best-best friend from pre-school. Blond. Shop-a-holic. Blue-eyed. Loud. Very fashion-forward. Not the sharpest tool in the shed.
Sia Uchiha. Complete random gumball (don't ask-it's her fault I call her that). Hyper. Random. Luuuuves surfing, but never talks about it around us (because we would all beat her head into the ground). Black-haired. Green-eyed. Smart-surprisingly.
Temari no Sabaku. A rough-around-the-edges kind of gal. Dirty blond. Blue-eyed. Loves sports. Tends to get violent.
Hinata Hyuuga. Shy. Smart. Tends to stutter. She's the peacemaker in our group. Navy-blue-haired. White/lavender-eyed.
And, last but not least, Tenten. Sporty. Brown-haired. Naturally good-hearted. Brown-eyed. Level-headed.
ANYWAYS…
We had been talking in Ino's loft, like we did every Thursday night. The topic that night happened to be about our ridiculous, lack-of love lives...
I had said (stupidly, now that I think about it) that I could get a man, if I wanted. I just wasn't trying.
So Ino went all Ino-ish on me and challenged me to make a guy fall in love with me in two weeks. And, foolish me, I accepted.
Now I was waiting for a call from Sia, who was going to tell me who I had to make fall in love with me.
She was supposed to call me any second now-
Brrring. Brrring.
Right on time.
"Hello?"
"Agent Cherry Blossom. You will be seducing and luring in one Sasuke Uchiha, my younger brother." Click.
Oh dear god.
Two.
"You have got to be kidding me? SASUKE U-FRICKING-CHIHA? I'M NEVER GOING TO MANAGE THAT!" I yelled at my phone.
Actually, I really wasn't yelling at phone…I was yelling at Ino.
"Hey, now, forehead! I didn't pick him! Sia did! But, y'know, this is a real test of your skills…to see if you can really do anything."
"…" I said nothing.
You see, Sasuke Uchiha-Sia's younger brother-was a real (excuse my language) asshole. A sourpuss. A social ice cube.
He didn't talk to anyone unless he had a reason too.
"Ughhh, even Super Chika powers aren't going to work on Sasuke Uchiha," I moaned into the phone, trying really hard not to bang my head against my bathroom mirror.
"Oh, forehead! Don't say that! I thought Super Chika could do anything…kind of like Spiderman!"
"Ino, I am in NO ABSOLUTE WAY like Spiderman-first of all, I don't shoot spider webs out of my hands, and I don't wear a ridiculous red suit."
Ino gasped. "Forehead! Spiderman's suit is NOT just red! It's blue too! And, in the most recent movie, there's a black suit-"
"Boar," I snapped-unfairly, but, boy, was I pissed!- "I don't give a frick about cartoon super-heros. We're talking about a real person-me, Sakura Haruno-getting an emotionally-awkward man to fall in love with h-me! THIS IS NOT GOING TO WORK!"
"You're going to have to make it work. Or else."
"…Ino, we never actually talked about what the 'or else' was going to be…"
"…Hmm…Oh I got it! You're going to have to go out with anyyyyone I set you up with…for two weeks."
I went pale.
"ByInoI'mgoingtotheclublater!" Click.
Three.
Stepping into the overcrowded, overheated, over-gross-smelling club, I sighed irritably, once again damning Sia Uchiha and Ino Yamanaka to hell. Where I hope they'll burn.
Squinting, my eyes not yet used to the dark and the flashing disco lights, I searched the mass of body heat for Sia-crazy-person-Uchiha and the walking, human ice cube, her brother, Sasuke.
At long last, I found the two of them, and began to push my way towards them.
"SIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" I shouted above the music. Spinning around, glass in hand, her face split into a smile as she spotted me.
"CHHHHHIIIIIKAAAAA!" She greeted back, hugging me with one arm, placing her glass on the bar with the other. She grabbed a different glass off the bar and pushed it into my hands. "Drink up! I'm getting you drunk! As a skunk!"
"Tch," A male voice muttered at her side.
"Asshole," I glared at the youngest of the three Uchihas (Sasuke and Sia had an older brother, Itachi).
"Pinky," He fired back, smirking.
"Oh, didn't you get the memo, U-chi-ha," I growled sweetly, flashing him a smile. "Pinky doesn't bother me anymore."
"Uh-huh, yeah right, piiiiiinky."
I twitched, trying to get my anger under control.
Sia, smirking knowingly, took the empty glass out of her brother's hands and forced in a full one. "Drink up! All three of us are getting drunk! We need to drown our sorrows!"
"What sorrows?" I growled.
"Tch...I don't have sorrows."
"Shut up, Sasuke! You need to get over Selena! She was a slut! She didn't love you!"
"Oh my god, what's this, Uchiha? You actually can feel? And you had a girlfriend?"
He growled, deep in his throat. "Shut up, Haruno. At least I've had someone in my life."
"Touché, Uchiha," I said, smiling semi-warmly. Maybe it was the alcohol in my brain. I drained my glass, and stole Sia's.
"Heeeeeeey!"
Sasuke smirked. "Keep downing those that fast, Haruno, and you'll be pretty drunk."
"That's what we're here to do, isn't it, Uchiha? And…besides, I can hold my drinks pretty well, thank you very"-gulp-"much."
"Drinking contest?" Sia suggested, wiggling her eyebrows. I looked at Sasuke.
"Heaven knows I need it," I said, quirking a brow at the youngest Uchiha.
"Hnn. Bring it on."
Four.
When I woke up the next morning, tucked into bed, slippers on and everything, my head was pounding like someone had dropped twenty-four bricks on it.
"Ugh…that drinking contest last night wasn't a good idea…" I murmured, pressing a hand to my forehead weakly. I was going to be throwing up a lot today, I could already tell.
My phone buzzed. I reluctantly picked up. "Ello?"
"Morning Saku!" Sia's voice chirped.
"Ugh…how're you-"
"Mine we're all mixed with water!"
"…I'm going to strangle you. What the hell did I do last night?"
"Well…I can't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure you kissed Sasuke after he "rescued" you from some crazy guy who wanted to rape you."
"Oh, OK that's fine I-WAIT. WHAAAAAAAT?"
"Yeah…both of you we're pretty out of it last night."
I was horrified. "Oh my god, what am I going to do????"
"It's Ok, Saku-chan! I happen to know for a fact that Sasuke-chan thinks you're cool! Now all you've gotta do is making my baby brother fall in love with-SASUKE, WHAT THE HELL? GET OUT OF MY ROOM!"
I heard Sasuke's voice in the background. "Sia, is that Haruno on the other line?"
"So what if it-"
"I want to talk to her."
"Hello, no!"
"Give me that phone."
"No way, Saskay! Come and get it!"
I sat there, on the other line, wondering how in the world I had managed to befriend Sia Uchiha.
"SASKAY! SASKAY! GIVE ME THE PHONE BACK-"
"Haruno?"
"Tch…Uchiha…what the hell do you want?"
"I need to-"
"I'm not exactly in the mood to talk to you-you gave me a terrible headache."
"About that kiss-"
"Kiss? What kiss? I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, Uchiha. And now, if you'll excuse me, I need to get ready to go to school." Click.
Five.
Thanks to Advil and Tylenol, my headache was-for the most part-gone when I got to my college's campus, ready for my complicated medical courses.
"Forehead!" Ino came bounding out of nowhere. "How did last night go?"
"It went fine, I-HIDE ME!" I ducked behind her as I saw Sia and Sasuke down the hall, talking to their cousin, Sai.
"Why the hell do you need hiding?" She asked, stepping away from me. I instantly straightened up like nothing happened.
"Because I might've accidentally ki-Uchiha…"
"Haruno," He said curtly, brushing past me.
Sia waved at us-"Hi Ino! Hi Sakura! Bye Ino! Bye Sakura!"-and followed him.
"You accidentally did what?" She hissed when they were out of hearing range.
"Kiss-"
"YOU KISSED SA-MMMPHCKJL!" She mumbled into my hand.
"Shhhhhh!" I hissed at her, slowly taking away my hand.
"But Sakura, this is great! You can move forward!"
"Except that he doesn't know I remember the kiss."
"…Were you drunk?"
"Yes."
"Oh…then that's a problem."
"Yeah, no shit, boar."
"DON'T CALL ME THAT, FOREHEAD!"
"Boooooaaaaarrrrr!"
"Forehead!"
"Ino-pig!"
"Billboard brow!"
"PIG PIG PIGGY!"
"FOREHEAD GIRL!"
"GAH! I'M GOING TO CLASS!"
"Fine! You do that! And I will too!"
"Good!"
The two stormed off in opposite directions.
Six.
When the bell rung, finally signaling the half-day mark, I stood up from my seat and stretched out my limbs, picking up my book bag.
"Hnn."
"GAH!" I dropped my bag in surprise, and nearly fell over a chair.
"…Tch."
"UCHIHA!" I yelled, going red from embarrassment. People around us chuckled.
Sasuke smirked. "Klutzy much, Haruno?"
"Shut up! What the hell do you want?" I snapped, picking up my bag and righting my chair.
Smirking, he reached in his bag and pulled out a dark denim jacket. "I believe this is yours…"
My eyes widened. I snatched it back. "Where did you find it?"
His smirk widened. "Your welcome."
My eyes narrowed. "…Thank you…"
"You left it at the club. I thought I'd return it." He turned around to walk away.
"Wait-Uchiha."
He turned around, raising an eyebrow at me.
"If you're not doing anything right now-I mean-uh…" Damn him and his Uchiha-ness.
He smirked. "Are you asking me out, Haruno?"
"NO! I just thought-if you didn't have any plans-"
"Sorry, I've already got some plans. But maybe another time. See ya around, Haruno." And with that, he disappeared.
I raised a hand to my cheek. Oh my god, was I blushing?
CRAP!
Seven.
I sighed, pushing my ice cream-covered spoon in my mouth. So this is what it felt like to be rejected.
Well-partly rejected. He had said 'Maybe another time'…right?
Oh well. I dug my spoon back in my Baskin Robbins huge, the biggest-size-they-had container. Cookie dough mixed with gold ribbon was good for my soul.
A meatball sandwich from a tiny, small-business sandwich shop already consumed, I was now enjoying a savory taste to soothe my slightly injured soul. Damn Uchiha!
Pushing myself off of the wall outside the ice cream shop, I dumped the paper bag the sandwich had been in a trash can and began to walk towards the campus.
And then, as if my thoughts had called him towards my location, Sasuke-freaking-Uchiha came out of a pizza store, nearly slamming the door in front of my face.
"AGH! GODDAMMIT, UCHIHA!" I yelled, loud enough for everyone in a six-mile radius to hear.
He blinked, then smirked. "Stalking me, Haruno?"
"WHAT? NO! I went to get ice cream!" Speaking of which…I stuck the spoon back into my ice cream, and took another bite.
"Uh-huh."
"Tch…cocky-ass Uchiha…"
"I wasn't the one who asked their 'mortal enemy' out about twenty minutes ago," he teased, walking beside me.
"I DID NOT ASK YOU OUT!" I yelled, my face flaming red.
"Uh-huh."
"Ok, maybe-but it was only out of pity!"
"Really?"
"You looked like you had nothing better to do."
"I didn't."
"Then why did you-urgh! I HATE YOU UCHIHA!"
He chuckled. "You're pretty amusing, Haruno."
"What-the-frick-ever, Uchiha," I grumbled, defeated, digging back into my ice cream haven.
"…Haruno…"
"What, Uchiha?"
"Why are you eating ice cream when it's 29 degrees outside?"
"Do you have a problem with me doing so?"
"Maybe."
"Well too damn bad, Uchiha!" I started to stalk off in a different direction.
"Later, Haruno!"
"WHATEVER, UCHIHA!"
I could hear his laughing behind me.
Eight.
"Awwww, it's ok, Sakura-chan," Sia said, patting my back fondly. "My brother does have a certain charm."
I sniffed into a tissue, the first Pirates movie playing in the background. "Siaaaa, he's supposed to love meeeee! Not the other way around!"
"Well, think of it as a holiday present for yourself. If this works out, the last day of this two week period will be Christmas Eve! And you two will be together then!"
I sobbed even harder.
"B-but…what if it doesn't?"
"…Well…you're screwed!"
I was probably making a new ocean.
"Oh, hon, don't cry-"
"I HATE INO! AND YOU! NAD I HATE MYSELF!" I hugged a pillow, and threw another one at the screen. "NO ELIZABETH! DON'T KISS WILL! HE'S GOING TO HURT YOUR HEART AND STOMP ON IT!"
Sia sighed, exasperated. "SAKU, WILL YOU SHUT UP? YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW IF HE LIKES YOU!!!!"
"If who likes her?"
We both froze.
"UCHIHA!"
"SASUKE????"
"HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET IN HERE?"
"…The door was open."
I glared at Sia. She squeaked out an 'I'm sorry!'
"…Why are you here?" She asked.
"…Cause our parents kicked us out of the house tonight."
"WHAT? WHYYY?"
"..Who knows…"
"Saaaaakuuuu! Can I stay with youuuuu!"
"…Sure…"
"Hnn."
"Can Sasu stay to?"
I choked.
On air.
"S-sure…"
"YAY!!!!!!!!!!!"
I glared at her.
She smirked knowingly.
Nine.
I was out of my wits the night before, when I had to agreed to let Sia and Sasuke Uchiha over, so when I woke up to a pile of black hair and green eyes and my best friend I screamed bloody murder.
"AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! SIA! I TOLD YOU YOU COULD SLEEP IN THE GUEST BEDROOM! MY BEDROOM IS NOT THE GUEST BEDROOM!"
"Shut up Saku-chan…today's Saturday…"
I growled menacingly.
No reaction.
I fumed,
grabbed a pillow from a chair,
and slammed her over the head with it.
Thud.
"SAAAAAAAAAAKUUUUUU-CHHHHAAAAAYYYYYYYNNNN!"
"THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR IGNORING ME, GUMBALL!"
"Tch." Sasuke stood in the doorway.
"…" I realized I was in my pajamas. I went cherry red, grabbed another pillow, and threw it at him.
He ducked, and went down the stairs.
I threw on some jeans and a shirt that says "Idiots Seem 2 Gravitate Around Me" and shoes, and went downstairs to cook myself (there was no way in hell I was cooking for Sasuke and/or Sia).
"You're charming in the morning, aren'tcha? Or is it just because of me?" Sasuke was leaning against a half-wall that led out into my tiny living room.
I stood on my tip toes and pulled out a box of chocolate cereal, mentally glaring at him. "Oh, no, of course it's not because of you." I spun around, pouring my haven into a ceramic bowl. "You bring out the best in everyone."
He smirked. "I'm flattered, Haruno."
"Awwwww, you two are so cute! So, when should I expect nieces and nephews?"
I choked on air as Sia came spiraling into the kitchen, grinning cheekily.
Sasuke glared at Sia.
"What? You two do act like a married couple!" She said seriously, a trace of a smirk on her face.
"That's it…I'm never inviting an Uchiha over to my house again."
"I feel insulted," Sasuke and Sia said at the same time, then looked at each other. Sia grinned, Sasuke glared.
Suddenly there was an odd buzzing with occasional chirps and beeps. Sia, still grinning like a maniac, picked up her phone. Sakura sighed. Her friend was so weird.
"Ello?...TAAAAAACHI!" Sia chirped. I raised an eyebrow at Sasuke, and he mouthed, "Our brother". I nodded (un) knowingly.
"I MISS YOUUUUU-Don't tell me to shut up! YOU CAN'T MAKE ME! No! I won't do it!"
I had heard Sia talk on the phone before, but I hadn't heard her talk to her brother, Itachi, before. I placed my bowl in the sink and drank some coffee, watching Sia get into a phone argument with her older brother.
"…This is amusing," I said, grinning at the picture of Sia stomping her foot and then yelping in pain when she stepped on something.
"They do this a lot."
"I bet they do."
Ten.
" So…how goes things on the Uchiha front?" Ino asked as we shared a cup of coffee and lunch at a little café not to far from the campus.
"They stayed over at my place last night-Sia and Sasuke, I mean," I said off-handedly. I popped the last bit of a chocolate croissant in my mouth and took a swig of milk.
I nearly laughed at the image being place in front of me; Ino Yamanaka, almost choking on air, coffee, and my news.
"they WHAT????" She all but shrieked. Everyone's heads swiveled over to our little tiny corner of the world and there was staring.
"Loud much, Yamanaka,?" A smooth, male voice said.
"Sasuke," She said, blinking.
"Tch…Uchiha."
"Mind if I join you two?" He asked.
"Yes/No." We glared at each other.
Sasuke chuckled, smirking, and sat next to me. Ino gave me a knowing look. I flicked butter at her.
"Real mature, forehead," She grumbled.
"You deserved it," I shot back.
"You two are a pair," Sasuke observed.
"No…really?"
"Stop being sarcastic, forehead."
"Make me, boar."
"Billboard brow."
"Pig…"
"You're running out of fuel, Haruno," Sasuke interjected.
"Did someone ask you, Uchiha? no, I think not."
"Doesn't matter," He smirked.
Ino just grinned, mouthing words at me.
"Oooh, look at the time. We really gotta go. Would you be so kind as to move, Uchiha?"
"Allow to walk you back, Haruno."
"Oh that's not necessary, Uchiha."
"I'm afraid it is, Haruno.."
"Have fun!" Ino cackled. She was lucky…she didn't have a class for another hour. And she didn't have Sasuke Uchiha "walking" her "back".

ALLOW me TO rant:
Ello, everyone! -grins- Yes, I finally posted Super Chika, parts Zero-Ten (if you're wondering why the heebie jeebers I have a part 'zero', then just think of it as a prologue). Merry (late) X-mas!!! -grins-
This fic will probably be moving at fast speed, and I plan for it to have no more then thirty parts (we'll see if that actually happens...!!!), which means three chapters.
As for it's name, Super Chika, I don't really know how that came to be. It just kind of came as a vision... -grins- Like lots of of random, meaningless plot bunnies.
Plot Bunny: HEY! WE'RE NOT MEANINGLESS! WE'LL KILL YA-
-stuffs plot bunny in a cannon, and shoots it halfway around the world-
ANYWAYS! This story is-kind of...well, I meant for it to be!-like My Cat the Matchmaker in structure. Yeah...that's because I wrote them both. . I do sincerly hope that those of you who enjoyed MCTMM enjoy Super Chika.
I did really enjoy writing the Sasuke/Sakura scenes, and I hope you enjoyed reading them! My sincere favorite part is them calling each other by their surnames. . I can picture it when they're married... "Uchiha! Where'd you put my shirt?" "In the washer, Uchiha!" LOLz!
For those of you who are really confused about Sia, I really enjoy writing her, and she seemed like such a perfect fit for this story, so I just had to insert her. Haters of Sia, please leave and never come back.
I do admit that Sia is a confusing character, so, if you have any questions about her, insert it into your review and I will send a review reply back (that said, this does not apply to anon reviewers...)!
This project should be over quickly (within a month or less, if I'm on top of my writing game) so it shouldn't harm my other writing projects to badly. My laptop's screen went all haywire, so I lost a few of my stories but I will try to figure out how to replace the chapters I lost, kay-kay?
Please review! I'd like at least TEN (this fic IS just starting out, after all) reviews before I update this baby.
Ja ne, ta-ta, Peace, and see ya later,
Lady Maybelle of Confusion
