They entered the great hall
They entered the great hall. Excited about the big dance. A beautiful ballroom all dressed up for their coming greeted them. Couples paired up together on the huge dance floor moving accordingly to the slow beat. They slowly danced cherishing each other as thou it was the last night of their life
Sakura walked past the big crowd. Tears falling down her delicate face. She had never felt so betrayed in her life. Her supposed to be best friend stood their watching in horror as amber left the room.
Sakura never wanted to see her ex or even her best friend whom she had been a friend with since kindergarten.
She was started to walk fast, until she tripped on the cold hard floor. She let out a big sob, as she shook uncontrollably. This wasn't supposed to happen to her during her prom night. This night was supposed to be filled with dreams coming true.
Not some big nightmare leaving her best friend-less and boyfriend-less at the same time. It was like a tragedy happening right before her eyes. She got up and kept on walking to the exit. She wanted to leave and never come back.
She felt useless for the first time in her life. She felt like she wasn't needed at all. Worst of all, she felt lonely. She sniffed, how long had it been since she had felt lonely. She fumbled with her purse, searching for the keys to her brother's motorcycle.
Yeah, she had to ride here, because her stupid boyfriend forgot to pick her up. She took out her keys, put it in the ignition and drove off, though her tears were blinding her.
She drove off; she wished that she could leave these sad memories behind her. She was still driving increasing the speed with every intention of wanting to find a reason to live.
Her phone rang; startling her at first, she started to cry even more at this rate. It was their song. Her ex-boyfriend, Sai had sung it especially for her on her birthday. It was a beautiful song.
She silently sang the song in her head.
She reached out for her phone answered it, "hello,"
"Listen Sakura I'm sorry…" the voice she loved and still did, the voice that made her want to make everyday a special day.
"Sai," she said
"Forget me, forget everything we were, I want you to forget me. Leave me out of your head, please Sai," she said before closing the phone, talking to him was breaking her heart more than ever. She continued crying.
She kept on increasing the speed more and more. She came to a complete stop. The beach. She loved the beach a lot, it was her second home.
When she was little, her brother would bring her here a lot and they would play with the sand, making sand castles, collecting seashells and swimming around the water until they got tired.
That was until, he moved out of the house, going to college. Sakura felt lonely.
Her parents were in France. They lived there, while she lived in Tokyo with her aunt in a 4-bedroom condo.
She took seat the sand, looking up, staring at the starry sky. She took in deep, long breaths. She calmed down at last. She smiled; it was so much like what her brother did on weekends.
She closed her eyes and stayed there for some time. She would go to her aunt's place later. Now, she would lie down on the sand and relax.
She stayed there for an hour, thinking about Sai and her relationship. Sakura got up, walking to her motorcycle. She sighed; they really screwed up this time. She didn't know what to do anymore.

Sakura got up. She lazily got up from her bed, lazily stretching, she yawned. She slowly walked to the washroom and had a short shower. She walked down stairs and ate her breakfast, which was all ready for her in the kitchen.
She munched on the bacon, savoring the delicious taste of her aunt's well-know bacon and eggs. She got up from her seat and went over to wash the plates. Later, she headed back to the washroom; she started to brush her teeth. She thought about all that had happened last night.
She combed through her wavy pink hair, with her fingers, grabbed her backpack and left to go to school.
She usually walked to school. She would take her normal route, passing by the beautiful park. There was a tree in the middle of the park, it was huge. When she was little, Sakura would go there and swing on her rope.
She reached her destination. She lightly pushed the gates, suddenly having second thoughts. What if she ran into them, she really didn't need it early in the morning? She took a deep breath and entered the big, bronze colored gates.
She looked around, there were loads of people in this school, and the chances of her running into them are 1-100. She just stood there, ignoring the people who were whispering about her.
She took off into the library she went, it was her sanctuary. She walked in the semi-dusty library. She walked to her usual spot and looked at the table; the books she had taken out were still in its place.
She brought her book up and traced the initials of the book. She smiled softly, placing the book down on the table. She sat down and closed her eyes.
She opened her eyes and looked at the library clock…7:40… it was really close till school would start.
Sakura got up and walked outside… if she knew what would happen next, she would have never left the library.
Sakura's eyes started to widen, there they were. The traitors that had made her feel this way. Her used to be friends, 'Sai and Ino.' They were standing outside and kissing each other senseless.
Sakura felt helpless, her legs gave up and she fell down on the hard cement floor. She fell on her knees, crying really hard.
Apparently Sakura was sobbing really hard, the couple broke apart, and to look at what was happening.
"Sakura…" Ino whispered. Ino was out of breath; she didn't know what to say.
The fact that her supposed to be best friend was right there, witnessing what had just happened with Ino and her ex, Sai.
Sakura got up; she picked her things and ran away, like the night of the prom, she just ran to where her feet would take her.
She ran into the empty hallways and just collapsed, crying bitterly, sobbing uncontrollably.
She continued to sob, until she saw a hand in front of her. She looked up, with widened eyes and saw a person standing right in front of her, giving her a small, sad smile.
She took the hand and was pulled up in an instant, making her bump into the person chest.
All of a sudden, Sakura just broke down, crying into the stranger's chest, wetting his shirt.
The stranger, startled with the sudden break down and the sudden hug, just tried to comfort Sakura the best way he could. He just let her cry on him, he didn't care how long; he just hopped that the girl would be okay.
Sakura fainted on the stranger's arms. He sighed, carrying her over to the nurse's office.
"What happened?" the nurse asked, as she saw Sakura unconscious. "She had a rough morning and just fainted in the hallway," the stranger said.
"And who may you be?" the nurse asked him. "Uchiha Sasuke, miss." He said as he gently put Sakura on the clinic bed.
Sakura got up; she looked around and saw a really neatly cleaned room.
"Where am I?" Sakura thought out loud. "Oh you're awake," Sakura heard a voice coming from the room door. She turned around and saw the same person, who she cried on yesterday.
"Who are you?" Sakura asked, a little scared. "Oh how rude of me not to introduce myself," he said. "I'm Uchiha Sasuke and you are, "he politely asked. Sakura. "Umm, I'm Haruno Sakura," she said, she was still scared, but felt a little comfortable around him, but still didn't trust him.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything to you, The nurse told me to reach you home and since I didn't know where that was, I just brought you here,"
"Oh," Sakura said. "What were you doing in my school yesterday?" she suddenly asked.
"That, I just moved here with my family, I went to your school yesterday because I had to enroll myself, my parents are almost never around and I had to enroll myself or no one would," he said.
"Oh, how do you like it here so far?" Sakura asked thoughtfully. "I guess it's been well… if you don't mind me asking. Why were you crying in the school hallway?"
"So you like this school, well I must say it's a really good school," she said quickly, hinting that she wasn't ready to talk about her previous break down.
They didn't talk after that…. he could tell that she needed to go home badly, so being the gentleman he is he dropped her off at her place. Of course with directions provided by Sakura
They finally reached her place and when they did, Sakura wished that she'd never leave.
She felt too close to him; it was like they were connected and part of this reason was that her now tagged enemies, Sai and Ino, where right at her very doorstep.
Nauseated, Sakura took her seatbelt off and whispered a quick thanks to Sasuke, her new found friend. She exited the car, with one smile, which quickly disappeared as she walked over to the couple.
"What are you doing here?" she coldly asked them; her eyes were filled with nothing but anger and coldness, which she felt towards them.
"Sakura…I just want to say that," Ino started, but never got to finish her sentence because Sakura cut her off.
"You have nothing to say… it was perfectly clear about how you felt. When you kissed my ex… Sai!" She said, bitterly to them with fury in her heart.
"We never intended to hurt you Sakura…"Sai said softly.
"Never, intended to…what you intended to do, huh…just keep me out in the dark while you and Ino made out in my house. Huh? Is that what you wanted? To do it behind my back? To make look like a fool?" She raised her voice higher and higher with every word that was spoken.
The couple just stood there, like they always did. Dumfounded by her recent words.
Sakura couldn't take this anymore; all she wanted was to be alone, was that so hard to ask?
She softly squeaked when she heard a honk, she turned around and saw, Sasuke, right there in his car. He picked a good time to stay. She mentally noted to thank him for staying. Just when it got awkward.
Sakura walked to his car and banged the door, she wanted them to know that she was furious with them; she wanted then to know how hurt she felt.
Well that's it for this chapter. Please review and i'll give you all double fudge browines with your favourite ice cream on top.
