A/N
Greetings,
This fic is quite a cute one. I watched a movie recently (an Indian one) and I couldn't help but imagine Sasuke and Sakura in the roles of the main characters (I know it's sad). So anyway here's the result. Sasuke is kinda OOC but in a cute way so it's okay. Oh and a note Hinata isn't related to Neji and but Neji and ARE related. Got it? Good. It's not really important this chapter but it will be in the coming chapters. Enjoy~
Diclaimer: Nope don't own it.

And now presenting…
The one and only...
Chapter 1!
Cue applause
Curtains rise and…
The show begins.

Luck. This intangible substance is something that many crave and desire. If I had luck on my side I could do anything and so on and so forth. What they do not realise is that in this world there are those who have luck and those who have run out. You see everyone is born with a certain amount of luck. There are just those who have more and others who have less. Those who have more tend to be the one with the bigger houses, better jobs, expensive cars and in general better lives. They have higher chance at winning a card game, choosing the winning number in the lottery, getting the biggest prize in a raffle. Whilst for those who have ran out of luck, well let's just say that absolutely nothing seems to work in their favour. But no don't go! All hope is not lost! For those who have not been blessed with a larger serve of luck, there are things that can help increase your good fortune. Lucky charms are not just a type of cereal. They really do exist and really do turn your life around but there is a catch. You don't find charms…they find you.

Now let's meet our protagonist, Sasuke Uchiha, and see what sort of luck he has been served.
Zoom in!
Let's set the scene - Toronto, Canada. An average-sized white Victorian house with a front porch comes into view. It is obviously located in a well-to-do suburb and there is a nice front garden.
Climb the stairs!
The front door is a typical wooden door with a brass knocker. No don't bother knocking our hero isn't awake yet but we'll let ourselves in.
Pan into the wall!
The wall is painted a normal beige colour, however hardly any of it is visible. This whole wall is covered in pictures and certificates. There are certificates for athleticism, academia, acting, music, dance, there is even a picture of him on the front cover of the time magazine. They all seem to be from when our hero attended college. He was quite the popular guy. The one who would succeed the most, the one who all the teachers had placed their hopes, the one all the girls wanted to date and all the guys wanted to hang out with. All in all he was quite the lucky guy.
Zoom out!
Now let's keep moving. You'll have plenty of time to look over the house later. Aha we've arrived. See that half open door there? Yes that one. That's Sasuke's bedroom. Go on, open it. Yes, he's appropriately attired. I'm quite sure that even though he lives alone, Sasuke is not the type to sleep without wearing something. All right this is where I leave you. Goodbye for now not forever and…good luck!

Why do birds suddenly appear Everytime you are near Just like me they long to be close to youuuu
Sasuke Uchiha sat up blearily and wondered where that goddamn crooning was coming from. Finally locating it as his phone he cursed Naruto and answered.
'Who is the asshole that is waking me at some ungodly hour with some banshee screeching?'
'Teme there are a number of things wrong with that sentence. Firstly, Karen Carpenter is not a banshee, she is a goddess and the song is a classic. Get some taste bastard. Secondly, I am not an asshole. And thirdly, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU? IT'S NOT 9 BLOODY O'CLOCK YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO MEET ME HERE AT 8:30'
Sasuke who had been thinking of breakfast suddenly sat up and looked at his alarm clock.
'Shit, I set my alarm at 7 but the bloody thing stopped at 6:59. I'm on my way. I'll be there in 10 minutes.'
'You better, you know how important this meeting is for us.'
Sasuke disconnected and scrambled out of bed and into the shower. Furiously shampooing his hair, he turned the water on and started washing the shampoo out when he noticed the water had stopped. He turned both handles to the max, not even a drop.
'Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.'
Wrapping a towel around himself, he ran into the kitchen and grabbed one of the 3 litre water bottles in his refrigerator and washed his hair in the kitchen sink, wincing as the icy water doused his hair and seemed to freeze his skull.
Pause!
Let's take a moment to enjoy our hero's well chiselled chest, dripping with water droplets as he stands here in the morning light. Oh dear. Here's a tissue darling. Just press it to your nose. You'll be fine. This happens all the time to first-timers. All right? Then let's go!
Play!
Sasuke opened his closet. Fortunately, he had ironed his outfit last night and after dressing and carefully styling his hair, he grabbed his coat and ran to his baby. A red Mustang convertible. He put the key into the ignition and started the car. It purred to life, or not. Coughing and sputtering it died. Ohpleaseno. He tried again and this time it didn't even start. Punching his hand into the steering wheel, he got out and ran to the main road.
'Taxi.' It stopped beside him and Sasuke took out his wallet.
'I need to get to oh shit.' His wallet was empty. Running to the nearest ATM, he took out his ATM card.
'Go in go in go in dammnit.' It definitely wasn't a good day. Giving up, he opened the door and started running.

'Where is the bastard?'
Hinata watched as Naruto paced up and down.
'Calm down honey, he'll be here soon.'
'Calm down? The meeting starts in FIVE minutes. You know how important this meeting is don't you?'
She sighed. 'Yes, yes. After this project we can get married.'
'Yea and you know how much I want to, I love you so much.'
Smiling she pulled him in, 'I love you too.'
But he had caught sight of Sasuke and was already running towards him. She sighed. Oh well not long now.
'Where the hell have you been teme?'
'Look the bloody alarm clock stopped and then my car wouldn't start and when I went to get a taxi I didn't have any money and when I went to the ATM–'
'it didn't accept your card,' Naruto finished for him. 'How many times have I told you to change your card?'
'Well it accepts my card sometimes too so–'
'Boys you're going to be late,' Hinata reminded them.
'Oh you're right, wish us luck honey,' Naruto said as he kissed her goodbye before joining Sasuke.
'Good luck.'

Naruto pushed the button for the 12th floor in the elevator as he stood beside Sasuke. And then he pushed it again. And again. And again.
'What are you doing dobe?,' sighed Sasuke.
'I can't help it, I'm nervous. We finally got a chance after so long.'
'Naruto calm down. has said that he's really impressed with our designs. We've pretty much got the job. This is just a formality.'
'Really?'
'Yea and he even said that he'd give us an advance.'
'That's great!' cried Naruto.
'Right, now listen to me. They need us, we don't need them. You gotta show them who's in control, got it?'
'Yea they need us, we don't.'
'Ok remember act calm, act cool.'
'Calm, cool,' Naruto repeated.
The elevator opened to reveal the two leaning on either sides of the elevator.
'After you,' Sasuke said suavely.
'No after you,' replied Naruto just as suave.
'No, no after y-,' the elevator door began to shut close and both desperately held it open as they hastily got out.
'Ok now remember calm and cool.'
'Got it.'
They walked past the small waiting area to the secretary who was on the phone. After finishing her call, she put the phone down and looked at them uncertainly.
'All yours,' said Sasuke to Naruto.
'Thankyou, Hi maam could you please inform Mr Butner that Mr Uchiha ,' he pointed to Sasuke, 'and Mr Uzumaki ,' he pointed to himself, 'are here to sign the deal,' Naruto coolly said.
All this time the woman had been looking at them with more and more discomfort and finally when Naruto finished she burst into tears. The two looked at each other uncomfortably and as the woman grasped a tissue and blew her nose noisily, Sasuke checked his watch. They were on time so…he turned around and saw an employee walking into the area.
Walking over he asked, 'Excuse me, could you please tell us where Mr Butner is?'
The man's expression changed and started sobbing.
'Sir,Mr Butner, where…is….he?' Sasuke asked slowly.
The man looked lost for words and he pointed upwards.
'Next floor?' guessed Sasuke.
The man shook his head and continued to point upwards.
'On the roof?' tried Naruto.
'Not on the roof you idiot, even beyond that. He's gone to the sky,' the man cried.
'…the sky?' asked Naruto.
'So he's dead?!' shouted Sasuke shaking the man.
The man cried out and Sasuke came to his senses, ' Sorry, I mean but we talked to him just yesterday, he sounded fine,' Sasuke said desperately.
'After talking to you, he talked to his wife and got into a fight with her which caused him a heart attack and now…he's gone into the photo.'
Naruto and Sasuke looked at where the man was pointing. A jolly old man with a sizeable paunch was grinning at them giving them a thumbs up. Around the picture was a garland of flowers.
As the man walked away Naruto muttered,' One day, couldn't you have handled your wife for one more day Butner?'
The duo cautiously approached the secretary again, Naruto nudged Sasuke and he cleared his throat before saying, 'Maam is there any chance that Mr Butner left us a cheque?'
And as the woman burst into tears again, the two hastily consoled her before beating a speedy retreat.
sooo whaddya think? let me know my lovelies...
