Author's Note: Hello everyone! =D Anyways, I got this NEW story idea from my older sister Ruby, so the plot and some of the scenes are ALL her brilliant idea.
The Forgotten and Blind
Chapter 1 - Forever and Ever...
"The Uchiha company has been serving Japan for over decades and continuing." A man with gray-brown hair paced back and forth in the meeting room overfilled with lawyers, relatives, and associated companies. "But now, as the leader of this company, it is my time to retire." He hung his head, but raised it as he faced his eldest son. "In order for the Uchiha company to continue making Japan a better place, I shall hand over my will, my wealth, and fortune to my eldest son, Uchiha Itachi and his lovely fiancé, Haruno Sakura." Every stood and applauded as Itachi smiled and kept a warm strong arm around a short pink haired Sakura. "May your futures be bright, and filled of success!" They all clanged their wine glasses to the person next to them as Itachi smiled down at his joyful blossom.
Sakura planted a small kiss upon Itachi's cheeks, "I'm so proud of you Ita-kun…" Her emerald green eyes sparkled in happiness she couldn't be more cheerful.
Itachi smirked, "When will you stop calling me that Saku-chan?"
"Until you stop calling me that." She pouted as they enjoyed the rest of their banquet. Though, as they all joined together to a formal ball dance in their fancy beautiful dresses and tuxedos, a certain young Uchiha glared at Itachi for inheriting the clan's fortune and company. Sasuke, the envious man, walked outside the balcony and viewed the many cars below him. As soon as he saw a pair of hedge clippers and Itachi's car, he thought of an evil scheme that will make him inherit the fortune.
The classical music played loudly as Itachi held out a hand towards Sakura, "May I have this dance?"
Sakura rolled her tea green eyes, "Puh-lease, no need to be so polite." He took that as a yes and dragged her to the marbled floor and started ball dancing as they smiled at each other and enjoyed their dance. "Itachi…" He nodded to show he was listening. "Do you… promise to remember me? Always and forever?"
Itachi lifted a hand and traced Sakura's delicate face, "I will now. Forever and ever." Soon, a longhaired brunette approached the eldest Uchiha. "What do you want Hyuuga?"
The Hyuuga was in a nice dark brown tuxedo with a small equally brunette girl named TenTen, "Only to congratulate you." He muttered darkly.
The girl's hair was in two separate buns and was wearing a traditional pink Chinese dress with many gold stitches of two twin dragons on the outside. TenTen politely spoke, "Aha…" She laughed nervous before squeezing her sweetheart's warm hands. "Neji really means it… Oh yes! Sakura-chan, when is your wedding? You must the gang!" By 'gang' she meant Ino, Hinata, Temari, Kurenai, Anko, Tsunade, and Hanabi (Neji's little sister). "Did you choose the bridesmaid yet? Will Hanabi be the flower girl? Did you choose your dress yet? Where are you going for your honeymoon? When—"
The poor girl interrupted TenTen, "Calm down TenTen-chan! The wedding isn't until next month, and everything is planned! I'm going to have Ino as my bridesmaid since I've known her since childhood, and yes, Hanabi will be the flower girl, I haven't chosen my dress yet—"
"YOU HAVEN'T CHOSEN A WEDDING DRESS YET?!" TenTen literally screeched. Everyone stopped to stare at them curiously before continuing on their own conversation or dance. A blush sprouted upon her cheeks before speaking again. "This weekend, you and I are shopping!" She grinned. "Unless…" she pouted. "Itachi-san has plans."
The weasel shook his head, "Sakura can do whatever she pleases."
TenTen couldn't believe what she heard, "Eh?! Neji-kun, how come you're never so carefree like Sakura's hubby?" Sakura slapped her forehead and slowly slid it down.
Neji crossed his arms and looked away, "Because I'm not an idiot to let you go wandering off into those alleys." Soon, the couple left bickering like and old married couple.
Sakura laughed, "They're so adorable together!" Itachi nodded as he pulled her into a tight hug. "Eh? What was that for?"
Itachi took in the scent of her lavender perfume and buried his face into the crook of her shoulder and shook her head, "You must be tire—" He was cut off by a yawn. "Thought so… Why don't we go back home?" Sakura rubbed her eyes like a child walking out of a really late movie.
"Yeah… That sounds nice." She heaved another yawn before Itachi helped her put on her coat and grabbed his car keys. "Sayonara Fugaku-san." She bowed before leaving and Itachi did the same.
The cold night breeze hit Sakura's face as she shivered and power walked towards Itachi's sleek silver Toyota Supra. As soon as he turned the ignition, he felt like something was wrong, though he hesitantly shrugged it off, not wanting Sakura to fall asleep in his car. He shivered at the thought of interrupting the sleep beauty's nap. The night lamps outside passed by quickly as they were now on the freeway and discussing their favorite movie actors and actresses.
Itachi smirked, "I'd have to say that Johnny Depp did a great job in the movie Sweeney Todd."
Sakura agreed, "Yes, but I think Helena Bonham Carter did better."
"All she did was sing." He remarked.
"Yes, and her singing is wonderful!" Sakura laughed.
A red light was soon shown the traffic light, but as soon as Itachi hit the brakes, the car didn't stop, instead, it went twice as fast. "It-Itachi-kun…? What's going on?" Sakura held tightly onto his arm, her tiredness obviously replaced with fear.
"I… I don't know! The car was perfectly fine when I went to pick you up…" Itachi slammed on the brakes once again and the car only went faster. "We… We have to jump. I can't even turn the wheels, it's going to crash into something." Sakura cried but nodded. "Open your door, we'll jump out that way." As soon as she opened the door, it swung open and many important files and papers soon flew out. Itachi quickly wrapped his strong arms around a terrified Sakura who faced towards his chest and grabbed his coat. "Ready…?"
Sakura only nodded and whimpered, "Hai…"
"On a count to three. One… Two… THREE!" Itachi leaped out of the car with Sakura screaming in his chest.
