Hello my dear readers. I'm about to start a new chapter story, again for my favorite Naruto couple—SasuSaku. The plot is entirely different from my other stories—This Compatibility Test Sucks and Rose Among The Thorns. I will try not to wander into my addiction of writing love-hate relationship stories anymore. So I hope you'll love it!

No. Valentine's Day was not the best day ever.

She hated the chocolates, the cards, the dreaded color pink; oh and of course, the roses.

God, did she hate that flower. Symbol of love her ass. The damn flower wilts-is that a good symbol of love? Hell no.

She never liked being given roses. People often think she loves red because of her striking and unusual hair color and how it matched ever-so-slightly. Because in truth, just because her hair was pink it didn't mean she liked the color—or any other shade within its range for that matter!

And if this were a love story, it would start at a school dance. And love story that it may be, it didn't start there.

It started in the toilet…

"Sakuwa!" Three bangs on the cubicle door. "I know you'we in thewe!"

Three flushes follow accommodated with a high pitched voice. "Sorry, no Sakura in here!"

"Sakuwa! I gotta' pee!" This is Ino Yamanaka. One of the prettiest people you will ever know with striking icy blue eyes to match her beautiful icy blonde hair and, sadly, one of those people, um, kids that can't pronounce their 'r's properly.

So, just to explain what's happening, it was Valentines Day. And both of these girls were both 4 years of age.

At this age, they didn't even understand the concept of the dreaded day. To them, it was making cards in the arts and crafts section, giving them to their parents or grandparents or any relative for that matter. Sometimes it was about chocolates and candy, like Halloween, only it wasn't scary. Most of the time it was related to the color red or pink or both. Oh, and hearts; Valentine's Day isn't Valentine's Day without the shape.

"Sakuwaaaaa!"

"Ino!" She shouted back. "I'm hidiiiin'." She said in a hushed tone.

All thoughts of urinating had slipped from Ino's mind due to her curiosity.

"Hiding?" The cubicle door opened and Ino stepped in. "Fwom what?" She whispers.

"The cooooooties…"Oh, how the 6 year old mind functions, we'll never know. Well, we once knew, but that was a long, long time ago, right? RIIIIIIIIGHT.

Ino gasped. "The cootiees!"

"Get in here!" Sakura said. "We'll be safe!"

"Wight!"

So off they went…or stayed, cramped up inside the little white cubicle. Until…

"Sakura-chan?" A little voice whispered from outside the door.

"HINATA!" Both occupants thought.

"S-s-s-sakura-chan, Iruka-sensei wanted me t-t-t-to look f-f-f-for you…" Hinata said as her footsteps echoed. "S-s-s-s-s-sakura-chan?" She squeaked.

As she reached the last cubicle, a pair of hands pulled her in and eventually got Hinata to shout for help.

"SHHHHHHHHHH!" The owner, or rather owners, of the hands demanded. "It's us!" Sakura and Ino shouted simultaneously.

"Ino! Sakura!" Hinata shouted happily. "I thought you guys were the booger man!

Sakura deadpanned while Ino stared at her confused. "Don't you mean the boogie man?" The latter asked oblivious. Sakura knew what was coming.

"But, Naruto-kun—"

'Here we go again with Naruto-kuuun.' Saura' Inner said and Sakura couldn't agree more.

"Don't listen to what 'Naruto-kun' says!" Sakura raged, her outburst echoing through the bathroom walls. Hinata gasped as Ino nodded approvingly.

"They're the enemy, Hinata-chan!" Sakura proclaimed. "Boys." She spat with disgust.

"Wight!" Ino nodded.

"And it's our duty—"

"D-d-d-duty to who?(1)"

"—to our country! To protect all girls from the likes of mud, crud and bellybutton lint picking boys!

"B-b-but Sakura-chan you should try it." Hinata protested against the spiteful rosette.

"Hmm…" Sakura tapped her chin, thoughtfully. "How can I trust that proposition, soldier?"

"B-b-because, Naruto-ku—"

"The enemy." Sakura corrected.

"The Enemy gave me chocolate." Hinata finished, or so she thought.

Sakura sent her a searing glare as she narrowed her eyes at the blue haired angel.

"Whose chocolate, Hinata-chan?" Sakura hissed.

Hinata sighed in defeat. "Mine. He gave me back my chocolate."

"Exactly." Sakura nodded in agreement with her self as she plopped down on her toilet seat throne.

"Please just try it once, Saku-chan?" Hinata asked with a sweet voice. "It's really fun!"

"Maybe we should twy it, Fowehead." Ino spoke up.

"Whyyyyy?" Sakura whined in disapproval.

"To know what the enemy has in stowe fow us." Ino provided a good argument.

Sakura thought it over, slouching over her seat, pouting. "Hmmm…" She hummed, twirling one of her pink pig tails.

"And maybe you could give one to Sasuke." Ino said, wagging a brow suggestively.

"Y-y-y-yeah! You've had the longest crush on him ever!" Hinata said; in fact, Sakur only had a crush on him since first day of school.

"Fine." Sakura grumbled.

They left the pink bathroom with Hinata and Ino following behind Sakura with triumphant smiles and Sakura wearing a determined look.

As they passed the beige halls, all decorated with colorful drawings and the alphabet sprawled towards their destination, every boy watched in awe. They gave them sweets and chocolates and cards, which only proves how powerful they were.

Che. Pathetic kindergarteners.

Sakura was determined. Stomping off out into the playground, she grabbed one of the cards handed to her, erased the name and replaces it with a neatly written Sasuke.

The trio was quite amusing to see for the on-going teachers. With their untucked uniforms and loosely hanging skirts, they looked a little too…tussled for kindergarteners.

They stepped out onto the pavement, scanning the horde of candy-high 4 year olds.

"Thewe he is!" Ino whispered to Sakura.

And there he was, sitting by the swings (not on the swings) frowning beside Hinata's Naruto-kun, who was on the swings, smiling. See the difference?

"Uchiha Sasuke." Sakura bowed abruptly, giving him the card.

All eyes were on them and an eerie silence came over the playground. Seriously, you could hear the children wetting themselves…THAT'S how quiet it was.

"Haruno Sakura." Sasuke grunted, standing up. He cringed at the sight of the red heart-shaped card, but—still—he took it.

Sakura let out a breath when he grasped it. There was a moment of awkward silence between the two. And when a response didn't come, the girl looked up and found…

…that he was gone.

Thus, is the fall of the Haruno Queen.

Like? If I get a review or two I'll continue. :D
