Morning has finally set its arrival over the horizon and blossom haired girl stepped onto royal grounds, placing her bags onto the front porch of a colossal manor. She looked up, only to be greeted by the giant building hovering over her small figurine. She examined the carefully crafted door in front of her, wondering where can the door bell possibly be, until her questing was finally answered by the sudden hearing of distant footsteps. The door finally opened and a ruby haired girl peeked out of the giant exterior.
"So you're Haruno, Sakura?" the girl said in an unwelcoming tone. The girl's shiny and healthy, ruby hair appeared chopped on one side and elongated on the other. Sakura took a second to stare at the girl, bewildered by her unusual haircut. Then again, her own hair color is quite supernatural too. The girl wore a gorgeous, laced dress that resembled a typical maid's uniform and her luxurious Chanel glasses were obvious in the sun's radiance.
She looks like a maid, but why would she wear those expensive glasses…?And she's wearing very pretty heels…
"Oh, yup!" Sakura finally responded and smiled beamingly. She noticed that her unresponsiveness previously created an awkward mood between the two. The girl ignored her happy mood, spun around and Sakura immediately trotted right behind her.
Hmm… maybe I can be friends with this girl. We're kinda similar…
"Oh um, you didn't tell me your name."
"What?" The red haired girl growled.
She faced her and lifted an eyebrow in disgust, as if the blossom had done something so obviously mean and yet it was so oblivious to Sakura. The girl returned to walked to her destination. The red haired girl lead Sakura down a series of hallways. The house was glossed in beautiful cherry wood floors and walls dressed in breath-taking curtains and cloths, pictures presented in extremely intricate details. The ceilings were covered in expensive chandeliers and molds. It was simply stunning and the pink haired girl was only drowned in her overwhelming state and by the richness of the home's beauty.
The red hair girl stood in front of a room, making a small tittering noise. As if she was trying to suppress an evil laugh to herself. "Here is your room. Stay in it until someone knocks on your door. Got it?"
"Yes Miss…" Sakura trailed off into a question, stilling wanting to know her name.
"Karin…" She said in annoyance. "I'm the part time maid in this house and the next girl to marry the prince of this manor. So you better not pull some fancy pancy tricks or poison this household with your…" Karin scrutinized the blossom's bags and her clothes with much annoyance and disgust. "With your… trash."
"Err… ok. I guess I'm not suppose to be expecting a welcome wagon from you…," Sakura responded, struggling to suppress her anger.
"Shut up peasant." And with that, Karin opened a door and left the furious girl to herself.
Geez! What's her problem. Sakura thought. Maybe I should unpack right now.
Sakura took a step into the open room and was completely stunned by the room's interior. A beautifully sparkling, diamond chandelier glowed from the top of the ceiling and a king size bed hugged the room. A complete steno system and a widescreen plasma TV hung on the elongated walls that paralleled the bed. There was a marble, spiral stairs that led to another floor above this one. Sakura squeaked in excitement, so happy that the room was so enchanted and royal like. She almost felt like she was a queen, of some country, or some famous celebrity. Her mind was trying to soak in the prodigious household until…
"Oi."
Sakura spun around only to meet a pair of two obsidian eyes piercing right at her.
Sakura smiled blithely. "Hi. My name is Sakura Har-"
"Get out," he said flatly, promptly interrupting her speech. She stared at him in befuddlement but awestricken when she was trapped into a spell by his beauty. His voice seemed blunt but manly and velvet. And his hair graced over his ebony eyes and shined brilliantly in the energy of the light. His eyes invested deep and dark depths of unknown length and he was certainly taller than her and perfect in proportion. She almost gaped at the sight of him, so godly features that no one like him would never notice a girl like her.
Wow… he's so beautiful… Is this the prince that Karin was talking about? He must be rich… Hmm… he wouldn't want to go for a girl like me for sure…
Sakura sadly looked at him, who was waiting for an answer.
"Well you see, I would but I don't know where to go-"
"Just get out."
The raven haired stepped aside from the doorframe, motioning her to dismiss herself. Sakura looked at him in perplexity and reluctantly stepped out with her bags. Soon after, he slammed the door shut, leaving an angry and confused Sakura behind.
Sakura let out a sigh and looked around. She was astonished from his sudden anger and plopped down on the cherry wood floor, leaning against the door. She wondered if it was ok of her to errantly wonder around the house.
I'm so confused….
"Ugh… what am I doing here… did I really come here just so that I can be a medical servant here in this manor... well its just going to be for a year and extremely good pay. I'm sure I'm going to survive, just need to keep reminding myself, one year, good money! Just be more optimistic." Sakura exclaimed to herself. "This will definitely pay off my parent's debt and finally enroll myself into more elite education."
"Talking to yourself I see…. hello there…"
Sakura shot up to meet a familiar looking man, staring at her with great amusement. She figured out this man was probably older than the prince.
"Oh hi! My name is Sakura Haruno."
"You must be Sasuke's new girlfriend."
"What?! Sasuke?" Sakura said in puzzlement. Is that the prince's name?
Suddenly the door she was leaning on opened and she fell back against a pair of legs. Sakura slowly looked up, bemused to see an interesting perspective of the prince's body…
She blushed wildly and felt herself burning around her cheeks. She was scared by the fact that she was staring at a very private part of the man's body and also to the fact that he was glaring at her intensely. Sakura quickly struggled to get up on her own two feet until a pair of hands assisted her in regaining her balance.
"My name is Itachi Uchiha," he said after he had helped the uncoordinated girl to her feet. "This isn't anyway to treat your 'girlfriend' Sasuke. It's not everyday you bring a girl home from school. And if this 'girlfriend' of yours is true to your word, I find much amusement in which Sakura here seems like she is just seeing you for the first time..." Itachi smirked.
Sasuke scowled at his comment. "Shut up and I would say the same to you. I don't have time for girls."
"Well make some little brother. I'm sure you do, you just don't want to." Itachi then lightly laughed at his brother's foolishness. "And for your information Sasuke, I've already had a couple of girlfriends… at least I'm not the one being desperate enough to use an option as low as blind dating."
"What did you say?!" Sasuke growled. His fiercely clutched his fists, almost ready to knock out his brother.
Sakura glanced back and forth between the two boys, having a heated quarrel, she was unfortunately stuck in the middle and confused more than ever.
"Uh Itachi?" Sakura asked, "Could you show me my room so I can leave you two alone?"
Itachi laughed lightly.
"Sure, I'll show you a room that-"
"Hey, come here," Sasuke suddenly commanded. He grabbed Sakura's arm and forcibly, pulled her into his room.
Sakura plunged into the room while Sasuke rashly shut the door behind them. He quickly brought in her luggage as well.
She looked at him in complete shock that too much has already happened in ten minutes.
"Look," the raven haired man started. His hand ran though his long onyx hair. He took a deep breath and it seemed he was trying to find words to explain something he's keeping secret.
"My parents brought you here not to be a medical servant to this manor-"
"WHAT?!" Sakura shouted. Soon her vision blurred and promptly fainted onto Sasuke's bed.
"Ugh… God… This much more difficult than I anticipated…" Sasuke sighed with frustration. He glanced at her bags. Four bags.
Why the hell did my parents allow this girl to live this manor. I have to kick her out soon… So I can have my peace back. With this girl, silence will never exist in this household.
Sasuke grabbed her bags and attempted to unpack her belongings and stash them orderly in empty, marble drawers brought especially for her. He hoped to see that this girl is actually an intelligent and quiet person by going through her belongings. He started unzipping her bags when he noticed a bright white thing pushing out of its luggage.
What the hell is this? Sasuke pulled out something from the bag and was shocked to figure out it was a stuff toy bunny.
Great… I'm certain I'm stuck with a girl who still holds great happiness for her childish toys…
Sasuke stared at the bunny emotionlessly and tossed it aside. He took out other belongings in the bag when suddenly a pillow hit his face.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" Sakura demanded.
"What?! What the hell are you doing?!" Sasuke countered. He promptly picked up the pillow viciously threw it back at her.
The pillow flung at Sakura's face with great speed.
"Hey! That hurt… you're so mean…"
"Hn."
Suddenly, as Sasuke was about to exit the room, Sakura attempts to emulate the amount of force Sasuke used, as she playfully threw the pillow back against him.
Which wasn't a good idea. The pillow slammed against the Prince's back.
"……"
"Sasuke?"
"……"
The pillow slowly slide down his back and dropped idly onto the cherry floorings. Sakura notices his unresponsiveness and gasps at a thought of a possible explanation.
"Oh my gosh! D-did I hurt you?! I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean-"
"How can I possibly get hurt from something so soft?!" Sasuke finally answered.
Sakura took a step back and flinched from his uprising anger. "I-I'm sorry Sasuke…"
"Shut-up. You're so annoying."
And with that, Sasuke slams the door shut in her face.
Sakura stared at the door and only silence occupied the air.
Sakura sat a very elegant dinner table. Each person was seated on a very expensive and hand crafted pillow, each with its own unique designs and hues. The table was rectangular shaped, having two seats on each longer end and one seat on each shorter end.
She sat silently next to the prince, Uchiha Sasuke, while others, possibly his mother and his brother sat on the parallel side of the table. They all ate dinner in silence as another person soon arrived at the table.
"HEY YOU! GET OFF MY SEAT!" Karin yelled. She furiously pointed a finger at the pink blossom.
Sakura glanced at the fiery energy invested in the eyes of a ruby haired girl. She was certainly mad.
"Oh! Sorry…" Sakura quickly got off her seat and plopped herself onto another unoccupied seat. Unfortunately she picked the wrong one.
Everyone suddenly gave her mixed looks. Sasuke glared at her, Karin gave her a death glare, Itachi lifted an eyebrow in amusement, and Sasuke's mother smiled mildly.
A sudden cough echoed in the room.
Sakura looked up and met eyes with a man with very familiar obsidian orbs. She deducted that he's probably the father.
Sakura stared down and made a very upset face, aware of the growing apprehension crawling under her skin. His face was emotionless; just another reminisce of a similar face that she just meet. She sighed in great grief and quickly stumbled to the other side of the table in order to sit down and finally eat dinner.
The father sat down onto his seat and looked at Sakura with amusement.
"Who's this?" the father finally spoke. His voice was deep and clear, but somewhat intimating.
"Sasuke's girlfriend," Itachi responded.
"Ah really?" Sasuke's mother asked with high satisfaction. "You finally found someone?"
Sakura finally took a bite into her food and watched the conversation roll.
"Hn…"
"You finally picked someone to become your wife?"
Sasuke looked up and stared at Sakura. His look was ephemeral but Sakura took the glare with notice. Although Sakura badly wanted to question the question Sasuke's mother proposed onto Sasuke, she resolve to demand the meaning of prince's mother's words right after the dinner. She didn't feel like getting into a chain reaction of arguments right now. Too much information was trying to soak into Sakura's brain.
"I'm finished. I'll be in my room." Sasuke pushed his plate and quickly got up to walk to his room. Karin turned to Sakura and gave her another death glare.
As Sakura traveled her way down the labyrinth of hallways, highly interested in the variety of decorations that dressed the manor, Karin caught up with the clueless girl and abruptly smacked her behind the head.
"Hey peasant! You got the prince mad! No one ever makes the prince mad! Shame on you!" She accused.
"Ow! Gosh!" Sakura turned to face the girl. "I didn't mean too!"
"You're a curse!" Karin shouted.
She angrily stomps her way back to Sasuke's room. She quickly barged into the room and closed the door, hoping to get away with at least one less argument to fight.
"Ugh… I'm so tired…" Sakura complained. She turned around and saw Sasuke doing some work at the other end of the room. He sat in a huge marble desk, typing up data into a mac notebook.
"I'm going to sleep," Sakura announced. She happily walked over to the beautiful, big bed, dreaming of how it felt to fall into a pool of soft textures, and drown into a heavenly slumber until…
"Oi! You can't sleep there," Sasuke required. He closed the computer and walked over to Sakura. "Sleep on the couch."
"Hmph. Fine then, I'm going to take a shower first."
"I'm taking a shower here first," Sasuke demanded. He walked off to the bathroom and urgently shut the door.
"Ugh. Whatever." Sakura looked around the room and saw spiral stairs in the corner. She wondered what could possibly be upstairs so she headed for them and trail off upwards. When she finally reached its end, an empty room emerged from her sight.
"Ah! This room is just as big as Sasuke's! I wonder whose room is this?" The room was big and empty. On the very end of the room was a large, four panel windows. Anyone can almost see anything from outside, and it showed a magnificent view outside. There were cherry wood floors and a dashing chandelier.
Sakura then searched for a bathroom and was surprised to find one. She was completely amazed by the bathroom's magnifiance.
"Wow! Its so pretty!" Sakura exclaimed. There was a marble white tub in the room, a wide, long mirror, marble sinks, a shower with some buttons to the side of it, and a wall filled with beauty products of different assortments.
She quickly undressed herself, and took a spare towel in the bathroom. She rashly turned the knobs of the beautiful pearl colored tub and to her dismay, no water came out.
"What?"
Sakura went downstairs, with a pink, cherry blossom designed robe, and almost stumbled into a fall when she noticed a shirtless prince lying in his bed, casually reading a novel. She felt her blush surface over her face as she couldn't help but glanced at him a bit, to soak in his beautiful features. He was absolutely handsome, his dark raven locks were dressed in the aqua's slick effects and his bare arms, exposing its muscular flesh. His abdominals were scrupled perfectly and his skin looked flawless.
Sasuke sighed and looked over to the side, catching Sakura staring at him wildly.
"What do you want now?" Sasuke asked with an obvious hint of annoyance. "And stop staring at me. You're acting like a freakish fangirl." He quickly grabbed a black shirt in a nearby drawer and slipped it on.
"There's no water Sasuke."
"So."
"Sooo, may I use your shower?"
"No," Sasuke said flatly. "And don't come down here."
"What? The couch is here," Sakura claimed.
"There's a couch upstairs too."
"Argh… I hate you…" Sakura suddenly slipped out.
Sasuke twitched. "What did you say?!"
Oh my gosh… I can't believe I said that… to the Prince himself… oh….
He abruptly got off from his bed and approached Sakura. He looked at her in disgust by what she was wearing.
"Did you get that robe on your ninth birthday?" Sasuke ridiculed.
"What?!" Sakura hollered.
"Get out of my room."
"Argh…" Sakura angrily trampled back upstairs into her room. She shut the door and found the couch sitting at an end of a wall. Sakura crashed onto it feeling that it was somewhat soft, but dominantly hard. She took a deep breath and stared at the ceiling before her. Thinking about her parents back at home, where no one yelled at her or gave her cold shoulders.
"I miss my parents… Ugh… What time is it?" Sakura took her bags and searched for her cell phone. It read two missed calls.
"Two miss calls?" Sakura hit the button to hear her voice mail box and attempted to listen to the call.
"Hi Sweetheart! Its me, mommy. Good luck on your stay over there! I'm very proud of having such an independent daughter like you. If times are rough, remember not to give up okay? Love you!"
Sakura silently smiled to herself as she finally heard words of comfort.
Its going to be hard getting use to this…
