A new story from me?! How shocking! Just messing with ya. I guess I got into this… well I have no idea so review if you like it and just so you know this is another SakuraxBoys fic! Vote for the ending couple!
I looked up at the building with tired but happy eyes. I was ready to finally move in and be done with it. School's over along with all the romance. I'm done with it all. It's finally time to move on and work on my career. My phone began to ring playing the song 'The Nurse Who Loved Me' I smiled bitterly at the song then opened the phone hearing my boss on the other end. "When will you be ready to begin work?" She asked with a stern voice.
I smiled and looked at all the boxes around me. "Probably in a few hours. I just got to my place and I need to bring the boxes inside." I informed her already grabbing two of the hundreds of boxes. The work would be hard but I might as well start now.
"Honey you don't have to work today then… I do need you though. Here I'll send one of the people who are going to be working with you. He'll help you out." She said with a resigned but pleased voice. I know she needs me today so it's a poor day to move in to such a huge building but she allowed me to and she's even offering help, even if it's the wrong gender.
"Please don't send a guy." I pleaded knowing it was stupid and childish of me to want to hate him already just because he was born male. All the men I've known are heart breakers. "I can handle it on my own but if you really want me to have help then please just send a female." I begged but I could already hear her telling the boy my address and what I needed.
"Sakura you are going to have to face men eventually so why not now? Besides Neji is a wonderful boy." My boss tried to persuade but I wasn't buying it. I know she wants me to find a man. It bugs her that she's in her grandma years and I'm in my twenties. The fact that I act like a grandma with no boyfriend doesn't help.
"Fine." I answered then hung up. I knew I would have to face a lecture for that later of course but I didn't care. Especially since the lectures she gives are normally when she's drunk. I got inside and put the boxes in the rooms they belong in then rushed outside to grab more. My eyes widened when I saw a boy outside staring at the boxes. He had spiky blond hair and when he turned I noticed his deep sky blue eyes.
"Hello I'm Naruto Uzumaki. Are you the girl coming to live here?" He asked with a smile making me suspicious but I ignored it. It's cruel to think this way about someone whom I've just met. He held out his hand to me, but I couldn't bring myself to shake it right away. Instead I stared, feeling like an idiot, gaining the courage to shake it. Once I finally did a black Mercedes pulled up into the driveway and a man in a black tux came out.
"Sakura Haruno I presume? I've come to help you." He stated in a formal voice once he got out of the car. The man was wearing a black tux with a white undershirt and black tie. He had waist length black hair and light purple eyes. He seemed to be a respectable young man with his priorities straight. The man smiled at me then extended his hand. "I'm Neji Hyuuga your new assistant. I will handle your schedule and manage your work email and such. It also appears that today I am your heavy lifter."
I didn't allow myself to hesitate to shake his hand. He was to be my assistant after all. Naruto I may never see again so it's fine. "I guess that answers my question." Naruto said angrily making me blink a couple times shoving back memories from high school. He turned to leave making me catch his arm and stop him. I'm not concerned about his feelings but it would be nice to know why he cares so much about me and my moving here.
"Why did you want to know if I was the one moving here?" I asked making him smile dryly at me before pointed at the house beside mine. Then he walked up to it, took out a key, and entered. With no words whatsoever he let me know that we were to be neighbors. I collapsed to the ground and glared. I had just made a horrible mistake. I just ruined a relationship I could have had with my neighbor.
"Don't feel so down, Ms. Haruno. He was just a poor man who wound up with an amazing inheritance." Neji informed me making me shake my head and turn away. There's no way I could explain to him what I had done. I'm not the type of person to be outwardly cruel unless I had to be. I thought in this case Naruto could be a possible kidnapper like the one in the movie Taken. If I had known he was just my neighbor…
"Call me Sakura. I guess we should get to work so our jobs at the Trinity Hospital may start." I said with a grimace making him smirk in return. After making sure that everything was in order I laid back on the bed and closed my eyes. "I just want to stay here like this forever." I whispered softly then gasped when Neji grabbed my hands and pulled me up.
"Sadly you can't do that. You know you have a meeting today with a young man hoping to send you test results that will quote 'revolutionize' the medical world." He said with a smile ruffling my hair before leading me outside. I complained the whole time but I was happy that I had someone who would force me out of bed.
"Neji, could you order some Godiva chocolates and send them to Naruto from me? I would like it to have an apology card to go with." I ordered making him stare at me for a moment with an odd expression before nodding. I had noticed an empty box of Godiva chocolate in his trash just before he greeted me… I guess I figured it would be a good apology.
