Prompt Title: Sparks part 1
Prompt couple: Sakura x Sasuke
Prompt summary: She never believed in the stories about true love and the sparks that one would get by just touching his hand. That was up until she literally ran head first into her soul mate. It was just too bad he was already taken.
Sakura put the camera back up to her face and snapped a few pictures, despite the terrible lighting this placed offered, the neon colored lights were going to make her pictures amazing. She was here on assignment though and these pictures were for her weekly addition to the stars weekly magazine.
She pressed the power button and hung the camera around her neck. She had already gotten a few prized shots but she was supposed to be on the look out for the Uchiha family. She still felt weirded out about the fact that the whole family would come to a party such as this. Well she could see Mikoto at this place but the other boys not so much. The one time she had gotten locked in a room it had happened to be with the amazing woman.
Mikoto was nice, warm, and a party goer as far as Sakura's judgement had deduced. Sakura sighed and walked to the punch bowl. She needed a drink badly, then maybe she could call Ino to take it from here. Then again she had no idea where that pig had disappeared to.
She was so lost in though that one second she was almost at the punch table and the next she was on her ass rubbing her forehead thoroughly. "What the hell?" She asked herself before she looked up and around her hand.
Her heart stopped for a brief second, oh god she had just ran head first into Uchiha Sasuke. He looked down at her slightly irritated and shoved a hand down into her personal space. She nearly jumped at the action before she removed the hand off of her forehead and placed in his awaiting hand. Then she felt it. She thought she had gotten electrified but one look into his widened eyes and she knew he had felt it too. She was horrified at the thought of this make believe shit happening to her and a star no less. It was utter bullshit.
She muttered, "I'm sorry I wasn't watching where I was going." He pulled her to her feet. Sakura noticed that she had barely came up to his shoulders. She leaned her head back to look him in the eye so she could apologize correctly. She had let his hand go but he still had a grip on hers.
"Hn." Was how he answered her. Sparks or not, one needed words to communicate. His eyes had never left her face and made him look like he was searching for something.
"I'll make sure not to space out again." Sakura said getting ready to leave his presence, sparks or not he was still weird. "By the way, can I have my hand back?" His eyes widened and shot down to where his hand was holding hers. He quickly let her go and she turned to walk away.
"Wait." She paused and looked over her shoulder at him, "I never caught your name."
She threw him a smirk, "I never tossed it." She chuckled and walked away intent on finally getting something to drink.
Sasuke stood there stumped to no end. His hand still felt tingly from that girls hand. He had thought his mother was insane telling him stories about how one persons touch could send electricity up his arm. He blinked still standing and staring like an idiot after a pink haired beauty. He never even got her name. In fact if it had been another girl he was almost positive she would have been gushing needless information to him like her name, phone number, address, pets names, family names, how old she was, and so on and so fourth.
"Sasuke-kun." Karin purred from his elbow. He shook himself out of his stupefied state and looked down at the slutty red head he called his girl friend. Her upper body was pressed against his arm and yet he didn't feel the electricity that he had felt with the other girl.
"What?" He asked rudely. This whole thing was getting to him. What did his mother say about the sparks? That once he felt them he should never let that girl go. He looked back in the general direction that pink haired woman had vanished.
"You're mother sent me to come find you." She pouted at his obvious dislike. Hadn't they just been all lovey dovey? Granted it was more like he was more willing to touch her than any other girl but it was still love right?
"Hn." He let her drag him back to his family. Maybe if he was lucky he would be able to see her again before she walked completely out of his life forever.
"Oh, Sakura, dear!" He heard his mother exclaim as she looked past him to some one he couldn't see. He shrugged it off and sat down at their family table. Itachi and his father were eyeing the 'new comer' as well. "It's been forever."
He heard a female laugh that sounded so much like that chuckle he had heard earlier. He felt his heart rate pick up slightly. "Mikoto-san, I'm glad to see your doing fine." It was her, he turned his wide eyed gaze to the pinkette that was joining their table. She had a camera in her hands, was she a journalist?
"You covering the party tonight?" Mikoto asked excitedly answering his unasked question.
She giggled, "Well of course I am." She held up her camera a little higher, "Mind if I get one of your family?" She asked warmly.
"Of course dear." Mikoto smiled and leaned forward slightly to 'pose' for the picture.
"Alright, say cheese." She giggled as she placed the camera in front of her face and it flashed. "Thank you Mikoto-san." She said as she lowered the camera.
"You did get my good side right?" Karin asked snottily.
Sakura smiled not in the least put out by her rude behavior. "I don't think I can find a bad side." She complimented and immediately Karin shut up.
"Sakura dear why don't you join us." Mikoto gestured to the empty chair that Itachi's girlfriend had occupied before he had cut her loose little over an hour ago.
"I'd love to but I have to go find the Hyuuga girls before I can enjoy anything." She pouted cutely.
"That's too bad." Itachi said smoothly. "Would you like me to accompany you?" Sasuke glared at his brother, even he saw how pretty she was.
"That won't be necessary, Uchiha-san. I'm sure they'll just run away if I bring you with me." She chuckled slightly, every one knew how skittish those two girls were. The only males they allowed around themselves with out running off were Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuuga Neji. Their body guards in other words. "Thank you for the offer though."
"Sakura dear, I'm having a small get together next thursday if you'd like to come I'd love to have you there." Sakura smiled sadly.
"I'm really sorry Mikoto-san-"
"Chan."
"Mikoto-chan, I'm actually leaving on Monday. My father wants me to start learning his company so he and my mother can retire."
"Mou, Sakura-chan I never get to see you as it is." Mikoto pouted.
Sakura giggled, "Well Mikoto-chan, if you are ever in London come pay me a visit won't you?"
"Hai, Hai. I will." Mikoto stood up and enveloped the pinkette in a tight hug.
Sakura smiled to Mikoto and said her goodbyes before she walked off with her camera practically glued to her face.
"That was the Haruno's girl?" Fugaku asked as soon as Mikoto sat back down.
"Yup she sure is." She said happily.
Itachi hmmed in thought and Sasuke needed a distraction. He would regret this day forever if he didn't at least try to do something with Sakura.
"I'll be right back." Itachi and Sasuke said at the same time. Sasuke briefly glared at him and Itachi merely raised an eyebrow at him.
Karin pouted, "Where are you going?"
"Rest room." Sasuke said and left.
He wasn't going to tell them he was actually going to search for the pink haired girl, that would be a headache in a half to get Karin off his back about it.
He pushed through the crowd of people trying to find pink in a sea of colors. It should have been easy but the girls lack of height made it that much harder. He had been looking for her for a solid half an hour.
Finally when he had given up on finding her, he spotted her close to the exit making her way out of it.
He almost panicked and pushed his way out of the crowd and towards her as fast as he could. He made it out the door when she was trying to flag down a taxi. "Sakura!" He called out quickly jogging over to her. She froze and turned around at the sound of her name.
She raised an eyebrow at the panting male in front of her. "Uchiha-san?"
"Sakura, wait." He looked into her eyes and knew exactly what he wanted to do. He stepped closer to her and into her personal space. She looked alarmed for a split second and stood rigidly straight. "I need try something, if I don't do it now I will regret it for the rest of my life."
She went to question him but everything died in her throat when he pressed his lips to hers. Her eyes widened into dinner plates and she completely froze up. He was kissing her and she felt like her lips were on fire. She felt like she was flying. The whole metaphorical fireworks were going off inside her head and her eyes slid shut for a brief second before they snapped open. She leaned out of the kiss as politely as possible. He had a freaking girlfriend damn it. This could not be happening to her.
His eyes slowly opened and she backed away from him slowly, "I-I have to go." She turned and ran. He was left standing their dumbly again. Staring after her and touching his lips softly. He had felt fireworks and his lips still tingled from hers.
Sakura raced down the side walk and away from the second Uchiha that night to steel a kiss from her. She felt tears well in her eyes. Sasuke had actually made her feel something but he was with Karin Uzumaki. Daughter and heir to her fathers fortune. She shook her head. With just one touch and one kiss she had fallen madly in love with Uchiha Sasuke and she couldn't be with him.
