This lullaby is only a few words,
A simple run of chords,
Quiet here in this spare room,
But you can hear it, hear it,
Where ever it may go,
Even if i let you down,
This lullaby plays on...
Konaha's Lullaby

Both of these young teenagers soon meet and both worlds soon collide….
-End of full Summary-
Chapter 1
Sakura Haruno Konaha's personal heart breaker, and only pink haired play girl is on her way to her hot spot. Her long flowing pink hair escalated down to her mind back. Her white blouse was hugging her perfect curves. Squeezing her upper torso just enough to make her curves look slightly bigger. Her black mini skirting was hanging about mid thigh. Her body was perfect. She was flawless. Or so she thought.
Sakura Haruno has never, and thinks she will never believe in love. Her mother is now on her eighth marriage and so far Sakura believes all relationships have to end, sooner or later. Her heart longed for compassion, and love. But her mind, pushed her desires a side and brainwashed herself into believing that love is only a figment of everyone's Imagination, and that there never a thing such as love.
Sakura Haruno believed everything had to be perfect. But she knew that nothing was ever perfect. Her dream guy was tall, muscular, well toned, and smart enough to hold up a decent conversation, had a good taste in music, and followed her rules. She always figured everything had a formula, which she could easily avoid if necessary.
Haruno Sakura had a big reputation for having millions of one night stands and at least 15 different boyfriends since her junior year of High School, and she is in her senior year now. Oh, how time flies. Her reputation has led to one of the newly popular "Play girl ditch" which is where she leaves out of the guys window when he is asleep, of course that is after she has her "fun."
Sakura Haruno got to her hot spot, Blazing leaf night club. She was going to meet her friends their, and hopefully…her boyfriend. She walked into the night club and began to look around. She smiled once her eyes came upon her friends. She walked straight up to her friends and gave them a big heart filled smile, which of course meant one thing. Heartbreak time is finally here.
"So the time has finally come?" A blonde girl with baby sapphire eyes asked her pink haired friends.
"Yeah, the time is finally here." The cherry-haired girl replied.
"Aww, that is too bad. He is so sweet, though!" An ivory eyed girl said sadly.
"Hinata, suck it up. This always happens. Sakura will always be like this. That is just the way she is." A girl with chocolate brown eyes and hair said.
"Hinata, listen to Tenten. Sakura will not change. She is Konaha's heartbreaker. She earned that title, and nothing will take it away from her. She is the play girl who doesn't believe in love." The blonde-haired girl with sapphire eyes said.
"Yeah, what Ino said, I am a horrible person and I will admit that. I toy with boys emotions and gain their trust, then break it like it was of no value to me." Sakura said.
Just then a man came up to Sakura, and wrapped his arms around her waist gently. A scowl formed upon her lips. 'What does he think he is doing?'
"Hey baby," the man said.
"Look, we got to talk." Sakura said in an irritated voice, as she removed his hands from around her waist and hastily got up and walked to a dark hallway. Of course the man, who was about to be heartbroken, thought that she, was going to let him do something else, alone in a dark room, where no one would disturb them. But then again, don't all men think that?
The man followed his girlfriend through quite a few hallways before he stumbled upon his pink haired girlfriend heading into a door that lead out back. The man smirked; his mind soon became filled with perverted thoughts. After all, his girlfriend was leading him to the back of the building which everyone knew was an alley. Of course he and she alone, would only give people (Except Sakura, Ino, Tenten, and Hinata) that theory.
Sakura's POV:
I lead my soon to be ex-boyfriend down a labyrinth of hallways. I was carefully making my way to the alley where my plan would fall into action. He meets me at Blazing Leaf Night Club, I lead him away from everyone into an alley, he gets the wrong idea, I break his heart, and then leave into the night, only to come back ten minutes later to hang out with my friends, and search for a new victim. It was always like that. Only first it started at school. Then by the time I was in Leaf High me and my friends forged our fake IDs and I began to find my victims at clubs.
I always grew up with different fathers; none of them have ever lasted long than five months at the most. It was always a game to me. You make some on fall for you, break their heart, and move on to the next person. It was simple. Eat, or be eaten. That was the way of everything. If you gave someone the power to destroy you, then you can guarantee that they will destroy you. So I figured, why not destroy them first.
So far no one has ever out classed me, and I doubt anyone ever will. I have the brains, the skill, the talent, and the experience. It is a simple equation to me. Boys toy around with your emotions until they break you, and you have nothing left to hold on to. You heart is shattered and your mind is twisted into knots. But with me, that has never happened. I never let anyone, and I mean I won't let anyone, get close to me, and I don't plan on it happening either.
Love is a weakness. It has no real meaning. It doesn't even exist. I don't see why people stress themselves just to find a glimpse of it. It is nothing more than a figment of their imagination. No greater, no less. To me to love someone feels like to kill someone. You have all the power over them, yet you don't know what to do. You waste it on useless things and throw it aside as if it was a broken doll. I have seen my mother get hurt, and I will be damned if I ever get hurt!
Anyways, I was walking outside the door, eagerly waiting for my prey to catch up to me. Man, it was so easy to trick the opposite sex. Honestly, would I really fall for them? I think not. I might have fun with them, but falling for them crosses the line. They are simply my toy, as I am theirs. Only it's the opposite this time, they aren't going to be breaking me, I am going to break them.
I finally got to where I wanted to be. I was on the left wall of the alley. I leaned against it as I watched him step closer to me.
'Almost there,' I thought.
I licked my lip as I felt his warm breath upon my skin. Man, it stank. You could tell he had been smoking. Yuck, that is the last thing I need to do again. I finally quit two weeks ago, I don't need to inhale that wretched poison again. I rolled my eyes as he whisper 'baby' in my ear.
"What do you want to talk to me about, baby?" My ex-boyfriend asked me.
"Look, you're a nice guy, but I am so busy with planning my mother's wedding, and I have to prepare for so many things, I just don't think I have time for you anymore." I said as I recited one of my many speeches I always used during one of my many break ups.
"What?" My now ex-boyfriend asked me.
"Look, I have a lot to do right now, and I just can't see me spending time with you. I'm sorry Koji." I said, knowing the last part was a complete and utter lie. I would never be sorry for breaking up with him.
"But, Sakura baby, I don't understand." Koji said with pleading eyes as he grabbed my left arm as I began to walk away.
I looked at him with a stone cold stare. "Look," I said, "We will never work out. So don't follow me. I am not, and will not ever get back together with you. We just don't add up." I explained to him, hoping he would let go of me. But unfortunately he didn't. Kami-Sama why won't guys ever just take the hint and walk away!
"Sakura, if I can't have you on your own free will, then I guess I will have to force you to love me!" Koji said as his grip tightened around my arm.
'What in the hell does he think he is doing?' I growled in my head furiously. My eyes turned colder towards him as his grip tightened.
I turned towards him and punched him right in the face and kicked him where it counts. The next thing he knew he was on the ground with a bloody nose and 6 teeth laying next to his knocked out body.
'Served him right, for trying to touch me like that, pervert.' I thought inwardly. Man men are so clingy now-a-days. Kami-Sama it's annoying!
Normal POV:
Sakura walked back into the Night club and found the table her friends were at. She walked up to them and sat down. She was tired. Never has anyone of her ex-boyfriends ever tried to touch her like that. He would be lucky if he was a life tomorrow.
"So how did it go?" Ino asked her friend quizzically.
"He tried to force me to love him or something related to that sort of crap!" Sakura snapped.
"Sakura, just relax, knowing you, you probably knocked him back about 1,000 years." Tenten joked.
"Hai, I guess your right. But still he actually has the nerves to do that. Kami-Sama some men should just learn their place!" Sakura growled.
Hinata and Ino giggled at Sakura's rude remarks. Sakura could be so funny when she talks about a boy she hates. It was so strange. She could claim to have a weird feeling for a boy, and then deny it the next time. She never believes in love, well since recently….well since around fourth grade, but that never stopped her from dating people.
She had a strange habit really. Date someone for her own enjoyment then leaves them alone to rot as if she never had a tie with them. But if you were Sakura and you grew up with over seven fathers, with all of them failing to meet her mother's expectations on love, like spend time with her, eat dinner with her, sleep in the same room as her, actually talk to her about things, which none has ever actually done, you couldn't help but feel sorry for Sakura.
She spent her whole life growing up with different people thinking that each marriage would work out. Well until fourth grade, then she started making bets with anyone that knew her mother, mainly Sakura's only brother Kenji, about how long the marriage would last. She always won them, and she claimed she will never lose, under any circumstance. She just didn't believe in the power of love anymore.
She never said she gave up on love. She said love has given up on her, and her mother. She always talked bout what was going on with her mother's relationship. Sakura never had a problem telling her friends anything about her. Well, all but one thing and that is her father. Yes the know bout him, and know bout the song he wrote about Sakura, but she hates to be reminded of it. She storms of almost instinctively when anyone mentions the song, or him.
Talking about Sakura's father is like opening a wound that you never knew you had. It pained her severely, but she never knew why. Maybe it was because he told her he, and every other guy would let her down. Break her heart and leave her alone. She always felt as if she was a burden that was never meant to be around when he was mentioned.
Only Tenten, Hinata, and Ino, knew about Sakura's father, and she planned to keep it like that. After all, she was trying to close that wound; she wouldn't want it to be opened up again. She had enough drama going on already.
She had to plan her mother's wedding…again. Make sure everything was ready, the band, the food, the decorations, the catering, the dress was ordered, the limo was read, and her mother didn't have a total break down like the last time. Which, knowing her mother, Sakura knew would happen.
Her mother would totally stress out, and blow everything out of proportions thinking the world would end if she didn't have just one thing. Which of course Sakura knew she would have to fix and make everything right. Plus she had to worry about keeping her whole six-story house
clean, knowing that her brother and mother wouldn't do it themselves, and she had to prepare for graduation. Which she knew it meant she was free once the summer ended, and she could finally start fresh, at a new place, away from her family.
Sakura was taking a sip of vodka mixed with diet coke while she listened to Ino talk about the newest gossip about Karin. Apparently she was going out with the lead singer of Bitter-Sharigan. Who ever that was, Sakura had no clue. Nor did she care. She had a strict rule of NO MUSICIANS, and she didn't plan on breaking that rule anytime soon.
"Karin is dating, Sasuke Uchiha, I think that's his name." Ino continued on about her oh-so-famous gossip.
"I heard of him, he is in the band Neji is in." Hinata said quietly.
"He is in the bad with Neji-kun?" Tenten asked in a dreamy voice as she said Neji's name.
"Ooooooooo, Looks like someone has the hots for Neji!" Ino squealed.
Tenten had a blush that was a deep shade of crimson when she heard what Ino had just said.
"-Sighs- Give it up Tenten, he is a known playboy. He will screw you over and leave you for dead. Trust me." Sakura stated in a I'm-bored-and-want-to-go-home kind of voice.
Hinata looked at Sakura and blinked. "How do you know that Sakura?" she asked.
"Plain and simple, read his blog." Sakura explained.
Tenten, Hinata, Ino looked at Sakura in shock, and screeched "HE HAS A BLOG!" at the same time.
"You guys didn't know that?" Sakura asked skeptically.
"NO!" The three girls responded in unison.
Sakura laughed at her friend's childish behavior. "You guys need to grow up more." Sakura said with a smiled embedded on her face.
Her friends could always cheer her up for some reason. No matter what the case or problem was, they were the first to be by her side, and were the last to leave. They were true friends.
"Cheers to the newest member of the Broken hearted by Haruno Sakura club!" Ino, Tenten, and Hinata said as they raised their drinks in the air and toasted. Sakura just rolled her eyes.
"Okay, I am serious, stop that. You do that every time I break up with some one!" Sakura said.
The three friends of Sakura Haruno just giggled slightly, before taking another sip of their drinks. Sakura just rolled her eyes again. Man her friends were childish. But they were the best thing that has happened to her.
"Well I have to go, guys. I will see you tomorrow!" Hinata said as she finished her drink and stepped out of the booth and began to walk away when she heard her friends say bye.
"I better go too, it's getting late and I do not want to see my mother cranky." Ino said as she got out of the booth and stretched. She waved her hand good bye to Tenten and Sakura before disappearing out of the Night club.
"Well we might as go too," Tenten said as she stood up. "It is getting late after all. And I do have to take my brothers to Soccer practice at seven in the morning sharp."
Sakura just nodded her head, before walking away. Tenten quickly caught up to her. They began to walk towards Tenten's car. Sakura's was in the shop due to an accident she had when she let one of her ex-boyfriends drive her home when she was drunk. She learned to never let any boyfriend drive her car again.
The two girls drove home in silence. When the reached Sakura's huge six-story house…they said their good byes and parted ways.
Tenten went straight home and straight to bed. Sakura on the other hand just went into her room and into her closet and began listening to her song. The song her father wrote for her. Soon the pink-haired girl drifted off into a restless slumber.
