Chapter 1

Sakura sneezed. It was cold out. So very cold. She did not know how long she had been sitting out there. A few minutes? A few hours? The thought never really crossed her mind. All she knew was she was lost and did not care. It's not like it was a new thing or anything. She always got lost one way or another. Always found a smart way out. Then would fall again. The same stupid game over and over again. Sakura grew bored of playing and tried to change the rules. To say it didn't work was a lie. Oh it worked, only all to well.

Warm salty tears cascaded down her pale checks as she tried to clear her thoughts of that days' events. What went wrong? Her plans have almost always worked for her. No, her plans always worked before. So what went wrong? What did she do? She was not the smartest ninja in Konoha for nothing. So what did she do that made things end up like this? What did she do to deserve this?

The rain did not help Sakura's condition either. Her clothes were soaked thoroughly and her pink hair was matted to her head. She was sure she would catch her death if she stayed out any longer. But did she care? No. it was simple. She thought that if she died then maybe it would bring back the good old days, the days when her love was still alive.

(A/N: the rest of the story is basically going to be a flashback)

Sakura calmly stretched her muscles still sore from her resent B class mission she finished about only a few days ago. Of course she and her teammates were given a "short" vacation to rest up and relax. But time seemed to fly by as she lazed around the house, she had almost forgoten that it was already time to go back to rough training with Kakashi-sensei, Naruto, and Sasuke-kun.

"Sasuke."

A small smile graced Sakura's rosy pink lips.

Today was the day she would proclaim her love for her dear Sasuke-kun…..again. All she had to do was beat Ino, out run thousands of other girls in the Uchiha fan club, and make it back in time for the overview of today's mission.

'Not to hard.'

Sakura quickly changed into her normal red ninja dress and put on her shoes. She brushed her teethe and hurriedly flipped her hair. She ran out the door quickly giving her mom and dad a small kiss on the check before grabbing a small bread roll running out the door. The first thing Sakura saw when she walked out her door was millions of other girls old and young all standing in front of Sasuke's door in a neat little line. They all held onto chocolates and cards that read either, "Sasuke I love you!" or, "Sasuke please go out with me!"

'Pathetic.'

At least Sakura thought of a good plan to give her present to Sasuke-kun on White Day.

(A/N: ok really sorry, but I know Japan doesn't have Valentines Day. They have a day where girls give chocolates to guys they care for. But I forget what it's called. Then the guys return the favor on another day. Haha forgot what that's called to. So for now it's gonna be called white day, ok?)

She was going to give her present to Sasuke through the window. It was a fairly simple plan just as it sounded. She had already talked with Sasuke the day before when she thought of her amazing plan.

Flashback in a flashback (A/N:haha)

"Sasuke-kun."

Sasuke looked down from the tree branch he was comfortably perched upon.

"Nani?"

"I was just thinking that…well tomorrow is White Day. And…"

Sakura's voice left her as she trailed off mumbling.

"What is it that you want Sakura?"

His voice was cold and monotonous. It held no emotion or warmth that Sakura yearned for. It was simply just there. His voice was just there, holding nothing in it at all, it was almost boring. Though Sakura would never tell that to his face.

"I was just thinking that..... I know you know that you will be receiving many gifts from girls tomorrow. And that it will be hard to even get to our meeting spot with Kakashi-sensei and Naruto tomorrow."

Sasuke was looking even more bored and was about to open his mouth to ask her to stop talking so Sakura quickly finished.

"Anyway I thought that you could avoid it by if I meet you by your window we could just go to meet our sensei together and I could hide you from the other girls till we get there. That way you won't have to deal with them."

'And I can have you all to myself.'

Sakura took a deep breath and willed herself to keep calm and breathe normal. Her heart stopped as she saw his brows furrow into concentration. He was thinking.

'Duh he's thinking.'

"Yea, sure. That's a good plan. I'll see you at 5 am."

Sakura almost fell over.

'5 am.! Who on earth gets up that early? What does he do all day? Our training doesn't begin until 6:00 o'clock!'

But to hide her surprise Sakura just blushed and bowed her head down at the compliment from the great Uchiha Sasuke. It was the closest thing she would probably ever get from him. Sakura stopped smiling and looked down at the ground with a pained expression across her face.

'Don't think like that! Tomorrow he will see how much he truly loves you. Don't worry.'

And with that Sakura bowed slightly and waved a tired goodbye to Sasuke assuring him that she would be there at 5 am. But she would do more than just help hide him. Oh much more. Tomorrow she was going to make sure he fell in love with her, and she wasn't even going to try.
