STORY START#

He slammed the door shut with a loud bang as he bellowed out her name in a vicious tone, "SAKURA!"

The voice echoed through-out the house as Sakura's quivering form slowly began to mechanically move towards the stair-case, "Y-Yes?" She whispered out.

"Come down here and give you dear daddy a big hug!" He hissed out in a sickly-sweet voice.

Sakura cringed as she began to back away from the stairs. "YOU'RE NOT ESCAPING THAT EASILY YOU BITCH!" Her father's voice rang out before he dashed up the stairs quickly advancing towards the ever faltering Sakura..

"No.." Sakura whispered out before shouting, "N-NO!" Her words fell on deaf ears as her father smirked before taking his belt off and slashing the belt across Sakura's clothed skin and even though it was clothed; they both knew it would leave scars, marks and wounds on her scathed alabaster skin…

"S-Stop!" Sakura stuttered as she tried to hold back the tears stinging at the corner of her eyes though that was ignored by her father as he kept the sickly sweet smile plastered on his face while continuing to whip her…

[T^T] *A New Perspective* [T^T]

"GET A GRIP!" A boy of seventeen yelled out at his 'father'.

"HAH! YOOOUU LITTLE BRAAAT! YOU'RE THE REAASON WHY I K-KILLED YOUR MOTHERRR!" His 'father' slurred while pointing an accusing finger at the seventeen year old..

"YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!" The boy shouted before fisting his hands at his sides.

"WHO DO YOU THINK I AM SASUKE! I KNOW EVERYTHING! I KNOW THAT YOUR MOTHER DIED, YOU NEVER HAD A REAL FATHER AND YOUR BROTHER—

"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" Sasuke ground out before shoving past his 'father' and storming off to his room and shutting the door…

..

The sunlight filtered through the cracks in the curtains as a sleepy Sasuke woke up to the sound of plates breaking and clattering coming from downstairs..

'Normal kids have the privilege of waking up to their favourite songs, alarm clocks and their mothers sweet melodic voices but no, I have to wake up to fucken plates breaking!... Mother, What did I do to deserve this?' Sasuke thought depressingly before groggily moving out of the bed and into the shower.

As the cold water of the shower pelted down onto his body, he thought about everyone in school who thought of himself and his life as the description of perfect.. If only they knew the true meaning of the word perfect

"SASUKE! GET YOUR FUCKING ASS DOWN HERE! OR I'LL GET SOMEONE TO RAPE YOU!" The man from downstairs yelled.

Sasuke grimaced at the thought that the man downstairs was his legal father. He shouldn't even be allowed to have that title! It wasn't fair.. but then again, life isn't fair…

"SASUKE! I ALREADY TOLD YOU, IF YOU DON'T FUCKEN COME DOWN RIGHT NOW I WILL COME UP THERE AND GET YOU MYSELF!" Sasuke's father yelled before stomping his foot loudly, the sound of his foot connecting with the floor left an impacting echo drifting throughout the house..

"I'M COMING!" Sasuke shouted back as he stepped out of the shower and grabbed a towel to dry himself with.

He opened his closet and threw on a navy blue button up shirt before grabbing a pair of black pants and putting them on. Just as he was about to exit his room; he slipped on a pair of navy blue converses and grabbing his bag before exiting his room…

Sasuke went down the stairs two at a time because he didn't want to face his father's wrath. "YOU DOG! I THOUGHT I CALLED YOU TO COME DOWN TEN MINUTES AGO!" Sasuke's father yelled out…

"Sorry!" Sasuke muttered before grabbing an apple and storming out of the house and slamming the door shut. The second Sasuke slammed the door, he broke into a sprint; running as far as he could away from the hell hole called his house…

AT THE HARUNO HOUSEHOLD#

"BITCH WAKE UP!" Sakura's father shouted as he slapped the sleeping Sakura and threw her off the bed. Sakura screamed out when she fell onto the floor. She winced before forcing herself to get up..

Sakura's father smirked before he left the room; satisfied with the bruise on her shoulder and her pained face…

'I hate him! I HATE HIM I HATE HIM I HATEEE HIM!' Sakura thought despairingly.

'Sakura.. It's okay, we're in this together! We can pull through.. SHANNARO!' Inner Sakura said with a bright smile as she tried to cheer up the despairing Sakura.

Sakura smiled softly at her inner's enthusiasm as she walked towards her bathroom before picking up some new fresh clothes. Sakura opened the door and slipped in before locking the door…

Sakura jumped into the shower after taking off her pyjama's and throwing them to the side while placing her new clothes for school in a neat pile. The cold water hitting her bruised skin made her wince but soon she found it quite relaxing..

Sakura let out a sigh of content before lathering some cherry scented shampoo on her head as she massaged it in before rinsing it out.. Around ten minutes later Sakura emerged from the shower, drying herself all over. Sakura then slipped on her undergarments before grabbing her new clothes…

Sakura put on her light green turtleneck and then put on her black baggy track-pants before finally putting on a pair of light pink converses.. Sakura knew her sense of style was weird some may even go to the extent of calling it whacky but she needed the turtleneck to cover her bruises, the converses so no one could see the scars on her feet and the black baggy track pants so she wouldn't feel pained when she ran…

She opened the bathroom door only to get punched in the stomach, "WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG YOU BITCH?" Her father bellowed out while glaring at Sakura. "…" Sakura stayed silent, it was always the best option in these situations..

"GET OUT! GET OUT OF MY SIGHT YOU UGLY WHORE!" Sakura's father yelled before shoving her to her bedroom door. Sakura grabbed her bag before running out her bedroom door and soon out of the house..

Unaware but at the exact moment, the thoughts of a certain pinkette and midnight blue/black haired boy's thoughts were the same... 'Why.. WHY IS IT ONLY ME?'

[T^T] *A New Perspective* [T^T]

Sakura finally reached school only to see a bunch of fangirls hoarding around the renowned Uchiha Sasuke a.k.a the school's heartthrob. Sakura sighed, she did like Sasuke but she knew she would never have a chance to be with him so she chose to like him from the sidelines…

"Hiya forehead!" Ino called out cheerily while waving at Sakura. Sakura instantly blushed as she made her way over to Ino..

"Ino-pig! Don't say that so loudly!" Sakura said briskly as fear filled her as Ino raised her hand. Sakura cowered and moved a step backwards.

"..Sakura?" Ino said in a confused manner…

Of course, nobody knew that Sakura was an abused child; she didn't want or need their pity! She'd pull through, no matter what; she knew she would..

Sakura smiled nervously and waved it off with her hand, "Hahah~ N-No need to worry I-Ino-pig!" Sakura stuttered.

Ino then turned around and Sakura did the same but only to see what Ino was looking at. "SASUKE-KUN!" Ino shrieked out before running over to him, adding to his ever growing fangirl's that were suffocating him.

For a second, Sakura thought she saw Sasuke glance at me but she knew it was probably her imagination…

[T^T] *A New Perspective* [T^T]

Sasuke's eyes caught sight of a girl dressed in a turtleneck, baggy pants and converses. He glanced at her for a second, pastel pink bubble-gum hair and shiningly bright emerald eyes though what she was wearing was extremely odd because during this time of the year, the days and months were suffocatingly hot..

A few minutes later and Sasuke had finally managed to slip away from the rabid fangirls as he dashed to his class.

"TEME!" A loud voice boomed out. 'Naruto…' Sasuke thought before sighing. "TEME WAIT UP!" Naruto cried out before using his never ending stamina to run ahead and catch up with Sasuke.

"Temeeee!" Naruto whined before hitting his best friend on the shoulder, "You should've waited for me dattebayo!" Naruto said while Sasuke just sighed again, "Hn.." Sasuke replied before walking off towards his class with Naruto..

[T^T] *A New Perspective* [T^T]

"Haruno Sakura?" The teacher called out. Sakura snapped her head up, "Yes?" She said.. "I'm very sorry dear but the principal requested that you be moved to another class since theirs an odd number in another class and we need to even it out! Tsunade-Sama just picked randomly and it happened to be you so I'm sorry for the sudden notice.." said…. (yes, mrs.. she's married to Asuma)

Sakura was shocked. She stood there, her mouth partly agape and her hands trembling; it basically looked like had just told her she was going to die.

Ino squeezed Sakura's hand and then Sakura snapped out of her trance. Her face was still morbid. 'N-N-No…' Sakura thought as she shook.

'SAKURA! COME ON, PULL THROUGH!' Inner Sakura shouted as she took control of Sakura…

"It's fine!" Inner Sakura said aloud as the teacher nodded hesitantly but Inner Sakura was quick to flash a smile at her..

Inner Sakura grabbed her book as she walked towards the new class she was supposed to be in.. Inner Sakura gave Sakura control of her body again as Sakura sighed. 'Thanks Inner!' Sakura thought softly as a ghost of a smile played on her lips.. Sakura had heard that the new class which she was going to be in was full of extremely smart people and the class didn't have many people in it as well and for that she was thankful… and apparently everyone in that class had their very own skills, not just their genius.

Sakura knew she was smart but how smart was she compared to these people? Sakura's usual grades consisted of only A's and A+'s but how smart would the rest be? What if they could obtain higher than an A+! Sakura shook off the thought and labelled it as impossible as she saw the classroom and soon she was in front of the door…

'As soon as I step in here, my life will change…' Sakura thought.

'yeah.. LET'S DO IT! SHANNARO!' Inner Sakura shouted enthusiastically while flashing Sakura a nice big grin…

Sakura knocked quietly before opening the door and entering the classroom timidly. "Ah! You must be Haruno Sakura!" The teacher said loudly yet lazily though it still startled Sakura.

"Y-Yes!" She stuttered as she felt the eyes of everyone in the room on her, Sakura didn't bother to look up seeing as she would just blush and attempt to run out of the classroom..

"Alright.. Come over here for a moment." He said as Sakura shuffled over to him. "Can you introduce yourself to the class Sakura? Oh and don't forget to mention your likes and dislikes!" The teacher chirped, "Oh and by the way, the names Kakashi; but students call me— "KAKASHI-SENSEI JUST SHUT UP AND LET HER INTRODUCE HERSELF!" A boy yelled out loudly while Kakashi sweat-dropped..

"Maa Maa.. geez! Go ahead Sakura." Kakashi said before going back to his desk. "O-Okay!" Sakura said before fixing her gaze onto the ground…

"My name's Haruno S-Sakura.. I'm seventeen years old a-and I l-like listening to music and I d-dislike v-v-violence! I hate it! I a-also have e-emerald eyes and p-pink hair as you can see.." Sakura finished as she glanced at Kakashi.

"oh! Thank you, thank you! CLASS! WHERE'S THE APPLAUSE HMM?" Kakashi yelled out as a scattered applause sounded.

"Idiots…" Kakashi mumbled as he grudgingly walked back to his desk and sitting down while Sakura still stood at the front of the class, nervously shifting her feet and staring at the floor…

"Errr… Kakashi-sensei… You might want to give the new girl a seat.." A girl spoke up as Kakashi stared at her and then sweat-dropped again.

"Eheh.. Well Sakura, let's see which seats are empty.." Kakashi said as he glanced around the class.. "Okay! You can go sit next to Sasuke!" Kakashi announced as Sasuke gave him an annoyed glance.

"O-O-Okay.." Sakura stuttered before tightening her grip on her books and then looking up at the class.. Sakura's eyes widened a fraction as she saw, that there was only seven people in this class. 'They must be the best of the best!' Inner Sakura chimed in knowingly as Sakura agreed.

Sakura located where Sasuke sat as she walked towards his desk. Sakura gently placed her books on the empty side of the table before she sat down. "H-Hi.." Sakura stuttered softly. "Hn.." Sasuke grunted. Sakura just cracked a broken smile to him before opening her English book and did the work which was written out on the whiteboard…

[T^T] *A New Perspective* [T^T]

'THAT'S THE GIRL!' Sasuke thought. Why is she here anyway?

Sasuke stared at the girl as did most of the class. She was trembling without knowing and her gaze was fixated on the floor.

She started to introduce herself, "My name's Haruno S-Sakura.. I'm seventeen years old a-and I l-like listening to music and I d-dislike v-v-violence! I hate it! I a-also have e-emerald eyes and p-pink hair as you can see.." She said with pauses, stutters and trembling's…

And soon Kakashi being the idiot he was; forgot to give her a place to sit.. Sakura was that girls name.. Sakura sat down next to Sasuke and said Hi.. Sasuke had just grunted…

Sasuke stared at her as she got side-tracked and started to doodle on her exercise book. And then she started to actually sketch something, Sasuke looked at her from the corner of his eye as he stared at drawing.

It was a girl with a big grin plastered onto her face as she stood hand-in-hand with a boy it seemed whose face was covered by a shadow but only a small smile was shown on his face as they both stood under an oak tree in the middle of a small flower field as you could see the city in the distance…

It was highly complex and Sasuke himself found the sketch to be very detailed and quite beautiful.. He wished for something like this, a caring girlfriend instead of a fangirl, a happy life instead of his depressing one and maybe just maybe a little bit of love…. But he knew that god had cursed him in some way, he would never be able to find happiness or tranquillity…

"S-S-Sasuke?" Sakura said aloud while snapping him out of his daze. "Hn?" Sasuke replied while raising a perfectly shaped eyebrow. 'The girl's already trembling…' Sasuke made a mental note to ask her what was wrong with her once he got to know her more seeing as she would be sitting next to him for the rest of this school year…

[T^T] *A New Perspective* [T^T]

'I-I-I can't believe we're a-actually sitting next to S-S-S-Sasuke-k-kun!' Sakura thought excitedly as she continued to sketch.

'KYAAAA~! I KNOW! WELL DONE SAKURA, WELL TRULY DONE!' Inner Sakura exclaimed..

'Hey Sakura.. You know Sasuke has been secretly staring at your sketch for a while…' Inner Sakura pointed out with a smirk, while Sakura inwardly blushed…

'W-W-WHAT!' Sakura thought..

"S-S-Sasuke?" Sakura said softly while looking at his oh-so handsome face that looked way too stressed like hers. "Hn?" Sasuke said while raising one of his perfectly shaped eyebrows at her..

"You… You lead the same life as me.." Sakura said subconsciously and whispered the 'me' part while Sasuke stared at her with narrowed eyes.

"Don't compare yourself with me!" Sasuke quietly growled. "S-Sorry.." Sakura said before mumbling almost inaudibly, "Yeah… nobody in this school is abused other than me, nobody could understand my pain…" But Sasuke heard it, his heart almost skipped a beat that someone had a similar problem to him…

And then it dawned on him, 'And I d-dislike v-v-violence! I hate it!' her words echoed through his mind..

"W-What a-a-are you staring a-at?" Sakura said drastically, she was afraid that he might've heard her before. "What?" Sasuke said in a bored tone while Sakura inwardly sighed…

'Thank you.. Kami-sama…' Sakura thought gratefully.

'She doesn't want to me to know that she's… abused at home.. Well, if that's what she wants; I'll keep quiet because I know what it would be like if anyone found out my painful secret…' Sasuke thought…

"HARUNO SAKURA YOU BITCH!" A voice shouted into the classroom as Sakura stiffened…..
