Matchmaker

Prologue
12 years ago...
"...Hey Sakura" He said, while swinging back-and forth.
He pursed his lips and thought about what he was going to say for a minute.
He wasn't sure if he really should ask this, because it was quite obvious.
They were together about 24/7, having a playdates and such. Much to the dismay of Sasuke's fangirls and Sakura's (secretive) fanboys, which were scared away by a scowling adorable certain Uchiha.
They've been friends for some time now, and inseperable as well.
While thinking he couldn't help but think about how they met.
He smiled while doing so.
Flashback...
Sasuke quietly walked through the streets of Konoha, on the way to Kindergarden of course.
He was still thinking about how his otouto always promised to train with him; but never did so.
It made him kind of mad, but he understood that Itachi-nii-san was always busy with school. Itachi-nii was the smartest in his school. He wanted to just be like Itachi... so that Otou-sama will finally acknowledge him...
But he still had little faith in him-self.
I will never be as strong as Itachi-nii-san... He thought, displeased with himself and his weakness.
He started to mumble about himself being strong..
when he felt someone knock him over from in front of him.
"Ow~" He heard a feminine voice call out.
He opened his eyes to see a little girl. Pink, soft, need-to-be-touched, hair that was shoulder-length. Eyes, wide, open, emerald, sparkling, innocent, confused, and curious staring at him, face-to-face. Her forehead was kind of large... He grunted, seeing that she was right on top of him, straddling him, in the most -ahem- provocative way. Though they were just children and knew nothing of that sort.
"Eh?" She mumbled, rubbing her eyes.
"Get off" Sasuke growled, trying to push her off.
"Eeep! Sorry!" She apologized and made her way off of him, picking up her books as well.
Sasuke didn't recognize her from the school.. maybe she was one of those people who strayed away from the crowd.
Hmm.. maybe so.
She dusted her skirt off... as she did so, Sasuke took a note of what she was wearing.
She was wearing a ankle-length red dress. It was a little cute, he would admit. At the bottom, were pink-frilly rims. It was spaghetti-strapped and she had a small, black, cardigan covering her top-part. She also had a white-headband, with a very cute ribbon attached to it. She was also wearing black-flats, ballet-like ones.
"Um.. I'm Sakura Haruno! Sorry I bumped into you... I was in a hurry.. eheh" She giggled, embarrassed, rubbing the back of her head.
"Whatever, its okay, bye" Sasuke muttered. He had to get to school, he was always the first one to get there.
He left the confused girl, standing the middle of the street, as he walked towards the Academy.
He looked behind him, as he felt a joyful, annoying, aura coming from behind him. It was the same girl he bumped into. He was annoyed.
She must be another fangirl. Ugh! Just great.
He turned around, and raised an eyebrow at the ever-smiling girl who stopped in her tracks and shifted her head to the side.
"Umm... what's wrong?" She asked, innocently, which only caused him to be even more annoyed. Was she really oblivious?
"Stop following me"
"Eh? I wasn't following you, I'm go-"
He didn't care for her reasons, he just turned around and left her again, confused and slightly scared of the aura that danced off of him. He sighed, he was a little mean, but these girls just have to understand that he needed them to back-off!
I wonder what Itachi-nii would do in times like this...
He shrugged it off, he would definitely ask him later. He stopped walking, looked behind him, and she wasn't there. He sighed, relieved and shot his head back forward, only to meet familiar green
eyes, that he currently loathed.
Their faces were really close to each other, and Sasuke couldn't help but blush slightly.
"Eh? Are you sick?" The girl, I mean, Sakura asked, putting her hand over his forehead.
He grunted again, and slapped her hand away, in which she rubbed because of the sting.
"Hey! You didn't have to do that! I was just asking! Geez! Looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed, Mr. Grumpy!" She huffed, and stomped her foot.
She crossed her arms and waited for Sasuke to answer back.
He slowly observed her.
She looked adorable in her "mad-face". She was a little cute, he admitted, when she was angry, and that provoked him to make her even more angrier.
He smirked and walked away which left her gaping.
"HEY YOU! DON'T IGNORE ME LIKE THAT! OKAA-SAN SAID THAT IS VERY IMPOLITE! HEEEY! STOP IGNORING ME!" She shouted, running over to Sasuke, bumping into him once again.
"Oww..." She rubbed her forehead, which was read from the friction of Sasuke's.
"Stop being clumsy, girl"
"I have a name y'know!"
"Fine. Sakura" He said, slowly, teasing her.
"Hmmph" She huffed, and looked away, slightly blushing.
He smirked again, only a little.
"I'm going to be late. So, bye" He turned and left
"HEY! Wait! ..." Sakura called out.
"What?" He said, turning to her.
He was quite surprised at himself, he would usually ignore people, but he found himself returning to this very intresting and peculiar girl standing before him. He was aggravated at doing so, and he didn't like it at all, but he couldn't help it.
"What's your name?" She smiled at him, sweetly.
He grunted. She waited.
"Sasuke Uchiha" He answered, almost turning away.
"Oh! Well, then see you later, Mr. Grumpy!" She giggled and skipped away.
Watching her back, he slightly smirked to himself.
Flashback Over...
That day was quite funny. Only then did he discover that later on would he be sharing classes with Sakura Haruno. She was very smart for her age, something that Uchiha Sasuke would only be jealous of, but he couldn't find himself to hold a grudge against the girl. She was very enjoyable to be around with, and her happy aura always made him smile.
He was just as comfortable around her and she was with him. But something was kind of off when she was around him. He had this fuzzy feeling in his stomach and it was frightening to him, because whenever she touched him, hugged him, or kissed him on the cheek he would feel it and he would think that it was the cooties kicking in.
Maybe he was sick or something. That was what he always thought.
... And here he is now, pushing Sakura on the swing at the park. They are already in 3rd grade, and have been strong friends since Kinder.
And he was just about to ask her something that was quite pathetic in his eyes. But he would anyways.
"Yes, Sasuke?" She answered, giggling from how high he was pushing her. He smirked at this.
"... Does this mean were best friends?" He asked, slightly regretting asking, it made him feel stupid.
"...Best friends?" She looked confused.
He kind of felt rejected at her kind of answer, but her smile made him feel otherwise.
"Well, of course we are Sasuke! Unless you don't want to be..." She frowned a little.
He regained encouragement and said back, "No, no. I want to be best friends with you, Sakura" He smirked. He wasn't one for smiles, that was her job.
"Hehe. Okay then!" She grinned back.
... and they lived happily ever after. NOT.
Present Day
Here is Sasuke Uchiha. Sitting at his desk, in the Uchiha Corporation Building. He's CEO, well of course, being the only heir. With Itachi refusing to take over the company (stupid aniki), Sasuke was left over. He didn't want to be the second-choice, but what else has he got.
He kind of hates life now.
Everything he wanted he got, and yet he still feels empty.
Oh, maybe its because he was forced to marry to some hussy.
...And maybe its because his parents passed away about... hmm.. 6 years ago.
..And maybe its because right now in his hands is a phone.
And maybe because its Sakura on the line.
And maybe its because she's telling him, about how. he. proposed.
"OMIGOSH SASUKE! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!" She screeched from the other line.
(NO I DON'T SAKURA! I DON'T, I DON'T, I DON'T!)
She was too damn happy for her own good, so shouldn't be be too?
"Hn"
"Like it was soo romantic! and today is the day after our 7th anniversary. He was so sincere, and he told he-he loved me! Not that he didn't before, but this time, I actually felt loved! ... I'm just so happy Sasuke... Sasuke?"
He was silently fuming to himself.
What. The. Hell.
Not only was it cheesy, but..
He knows that Sakura was dating the dobe.
A.K.A Naruto, though he never approved.
He didn't know that they were actually serious about it.
He thought that it was just a fling!
...Then again they've been together since high school.
...and Sakura wasn't one for flings.
But he wouldn't allow it! It doesn't make sense!
... He was married though.
... and there's nothing he can really do about it.
... or maybe there is...
... He'll just have to call in a favor.
"Saaasukeeeee! OH-Sasukeee!"
He smirked at her childness.
"Yes?" He asked.
"Oh, for goodness-sakes, I thought you died! Aww. your so happy for me, your speechless! Hehe! Thanks a lot Sasu-cakes, I need your support now. Whoops! Now its time to call Piggy! She might be dying for answers, since I suddenly hung up on her"
"Hn" He didn't really care for what she was doing, but he loved the sound of her voice... it was mesmerizing.
"Oh Sasuke, lighten up~ You gotta wife to back home too right? We wouldn't want Karin to comfort Mr. Grumpy here, right?" She giggled, as Sasuke smirked at the nick-name.
She hasn't called him that, since the day they met...
"Sakura... YOU know how I feel about Karin.." He sneered.
"Oh, okay, okay. Yes, Yes, You hate her, she annoys you blah blah blah.. She's your wife Sasuke! You have to treat her right, no matter what!" She grumbled.
(Her feminism is getting to her)
Sasuke smirked. She was always cute when she was like this.
"Yay! Mr. Grumpy is happy now. Well, see ya, Sasu-cakes, I gotta make wedding plans" She quickly hung up.
Sasuke scowled at "wedding plans".
They just got engaged, now they're thinking about the wedding!
... well, its normal, yes. But not in his book!
(..what book?)
He's just gotta think of a way to make himself single again.
