CHAPTER ONE: I HEAR ONLY YOU...
Tick, tock, tick, tock…
"Oh! Sakura, you're still here?" A woman in her 40's noticed the pink haired girl still sitting on their couch. "Aren't you supposed to be on the dance now?"
But the girl didn't even try to look at her mother. Sakura was definitely pissed off. She has been sitting there for almost 2 hours wearing that daring bright pink dress bought by her father last week in preparation for their High School dance. Like every other girl at the school, she was really looking forward to this party because finally she won against Yamanaka Ino, the school's most famous girl. And not to mention, Sakura's most hated person.
If there is what you call 'best friends', Sakura and Ino were the complete opposite because instead of this word, they are 'WORST ENEMIES'…always fighting, bickering…The two have already battled it out even for little things. Last week, Ino and Sakura had a Best-Eating Contest and they turned the eating area in a battlefield. Just last Monday, they were fighting about who gets to sit on the front row of the classroom and last Tuesday, they were shouting at each other just because of their different opinions about a teacher.
Just the day before yesterday though, they made a deal about getting the highest score in Physics. Unlike the last fights they had, this time, they actually have a trophy to the person who would win.
Guess who the prize is?
Uchiha Sasuke.
Yup! None other than the resident heartthrob of their school, Uchiha Sasuke. He is the prize for Sakura's and Ino's battle now. Well…Sasuke agreed to such deal just because he's having a hard time choosing girls from their school to ask out for the dance and realizing that Ino and Sakura are quite a bunch of what Naruto calls, 'hot chicks', he fell in with being the prize.
Sakura won that deal and so Sasuke should be her date for the dance.
Now, Sakura is getting really bothered because of this 'trophy' she won. Is he really coming? She's losing hope.
"Is he not here yet?" her mom worriedly rushed to sit beside her.
"Hmph. Obviously." She sounded so gloomy it's as if tomorrow is the day she'd be buried six feet under.
"Wait for him a little while longer dear…I'm sure he'll—"
Like it was on cue, someone knocked at the front door. Mrs. Haruno answered, "Wait a minute!" and opened it since Sakura is too tired (from thinking) to stand up.
Sakura saw her mother nod to the person she was talking with in the doorstep and doomed herself when she knew it wasn't Sasuke.
Dammit, Sasuke! I'm already decaying here! She threw her head back and stared at the ceiling, frustrated about the world.
Next thing she heard was a click from their door and the footsteps of her mom nearing her.
"Sakura…bad news…" Her mother's voice was caught.
She immediately sensed the seriousness enveloped within it and faced her mother. "What's wrong?" She asked.
"Well…That was Sasuke's butler."
Just from the mention of his name, a light of hope sparkled from inside her. But her mom stayed real grim about it so she refrained herself from going out of control and go hysterical.
"So, where's Sasuke?" She urged her mother.
"Well…actually…"
Cough, cough, cough…
He stayed resting on the bed. His condition is getting worse and his feelings weigh down on it more since he has a woman waiting for him.
That girl is 'somewhat' important to him...he cares for her. Ever since they knew each other from 6th grade, he kind of developed this feeling for her. She's really different from all the other girls, he had admitted and he seemed quite attracted to her sometimes. Even in his dreams, he could see her.
Haruno Sakura.
She's really not that of a bomb. She's actually pretty simple. Yeah. Pretty and simple. And she understands him. She's the only girl who could actually talk to him the way she does and even with their little talks, he could really say that she has a good heart.
She's just like an angel…
Cough, cough, cough…
Okay. Maybe he should stop thinking about her so much. He's having this severe headache and thinking already kills him.
He twisted and turned and squirmed. He whispered a weak 'Ouch' and clenched a handful of his blanket. He needed some rest but he would rather be in the dance than in his bed though.
Knock, knock.
"C-come in."
The door opened. A man dressed in an elegant tuxedo bowed and then smiled to his master and said, "Young master, someone is here to visit you."
Visit? Who else knew about my condition? He asked himself. "Who is it?" He then asked his butler.
The sound of stilettos clanking against the tiled floor came echoing at the halls outside his room and Sasuke immediately recognized the person even when she just spoke a simple, "Thanks." to his butler.
What the fuck is she doing here?! He almost screamed.
Who would want the girl you are quite attracted to visit you and see you lying on your bed, crying out for help because of some stupid fever?! Nope. Definitely NOT this guy.
As soon as she got beside her, Sasuke gave her a sharp look.
Uh…what did I do now? She smiled him a smile so shy yet so sincere…
Instead of doing what he had planned to do which is to get her out of his mansion, he offered her a seat next to him…which is really out of his character. He was too captured by the smile she gave him that it made him change his mind.
"What're you doing here?" Was his cold greeting. He looked away from the girl sitting at his left side and continued scolding himself for letting her sit.
"Well…your butler told me you had a fever. So…"
"It isn't your business." He stated firmly.
"Sasuke, I just want you to know that it's okay." She spoke sweetly and Sasuke could see her smile even if he has her back on her. "I understand and thanks for asking your butler to tell it to me."
"Tsche. Is that all?" Act like yourself, Sasuke! He said to himself even though contrary to what he said, he was thankful that Sakura came to visit just to tell him she understands his condition. He almost wanted to melt.
"Yeah. That's it. Also," Sasuke turned to find Sakura standing from her seat. "Get well soon, Sasuke. Goodbye." She bowed to him with a content expression on her face and she retreated from Sasuke's humongous bed.
He watched her leave…listened to the loud but exciting sound of her stilettos…he admired everything about her that evening. Even unspoken, he found the dress she was supposed to be wearing to the dance really astonishing. It was simple yet it really suits her also simple beauty.
What she wore might have suited with what he was supposed to wear for the dance too. And it also suited the corsage he was supposed to give her. Sigh…
His head ached again. Ow…my head is spinning and…Why do I feel guilty? He gripped at his blankets as his other hand reached his head to massage his temples. Ugh…that girl…
Before he even knew what he was doing, he stood up and ran hurriedly to his door. He carefully made his steps and wanted to follow Sakura. But…he couldn't manage even to walk a meter away from his bedroom door. He started going slower and he whimpered.
"ACK!!" He fell, sweating all over, his mind blank but then…he heard something…something that succeeded in reaching his brain before he totally passed out.
He heard…the wondrous sound of the fast clinking of stilettos.
