Soo, I've been reading fanfics for a few years now, and i've finally decided to take part and write some of my own stories. Bare in mind, this is my first, and right now probably not my strongest work. Depending on where this goes, I might come back and rewrite chapters. I will accept criticism, however I do request you go easy on me, as I said, new to writing, and to be honest also quite nervous.
So, enough rambling, or you guys will just give up and not read any of my stories. (also, this is in Sakura's POV)
I had fooled so many people over these past few years. Since the beginning of it all, my skills as an actor, a liar, flourished until I had everyone, including myself at times, convinced that everything would work out in the end. Such a drastic change from when I had a small role in my school play when I was six. All I had to do was hand Cinderella a flower, and tell her she looked beautiful. Instead I stared out into the audience and pointed at woman with what I considered to be the most amazing coat I had ever seen. It was pink and fluffy. I then proceeded to hand the 13 year old that was playing Cinderella the flower and asked if she had seen the lady's coat too.
I wasn't the most gifted actress when I was young.
I didn't like drama at senior school either. Personally, I couldn't see the need for such a subject in the curriculum. If people were born to be actors, they would have a talent. One that couldn't be taught or learnt. One that flowed through them, that came naturally, leaving people in awe of the characters they played and the seamless displays of emotion that they didn't even truly feel. I had never considered myself good at drama. Not until I was forced to put on an act every time I left my house. Every time I faced my friends in the hallways and every time I served a customer at work. No one could have suspected what my life was really like. I didn't want them to.
That's how my acting came naturally to me.
