Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto! Peachie-Trishie and I own the OC!
This is a new story requested by Peachie-Trishie! Enjoy! Oh almost forgot… Don't get the Sakuras mixed up!
"Sakura!" Ino shouted grabbing the surprised girl's arm.
"What?!" Sakura asked pushing her black bangs out of her eyes. "I'm kind of busy!" Sakura was holding grocery bags in her hands. "My dad expects a dinner when he gets home."
"But… But… This is serious!" Ino whined with puppy dog eyes.
Sakura sighed, "Fine… What do you need?" She knew she was going to regret this. Ino squealed in delight and dragged her to Ichiraku's Ramen. They sat as far away as possible from three people already there. "What do you need?" Sakura asked placing her bags next to her seat.
"See those people over there?" Ino asked pointing at the three people.
"You mean Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura?" Sakura said staring at them eat. "Is this going to involve Uchiha?"
"Maybe…" Ino said looking away. Sakura sighed and looked over to see Sasuke watching her. Sakura glared at him and turned back to Ino. "If you help me get Uchiha then I will help you with Naruto!"
Sakura blushed a deep red. "Whoever said I like Naruto?"
"Oh come on! I'm your best friend! I know when you're falling for someone."
"Why would I like him? He's a total dork. He's weird. He's stupid… And he's so sweet…" Sakura sighed staring at the blonde. "Plus he eats way too much!"
"Are you going to help me or not?" Ino asked with begging eyes.
"Sure… There's nothing I need to do… but… we have to start tomorrow." Sakura said picking up her bags. "See you tomorrow!" Sakura exited Ichiraku's heading home. When she opened the door her brother greeted her.
"What took you so long?!" Her brother shouted grabbing her arm.
"Takashi! When did you come home?" Sakura asked with frightened eyes.
"I asked you a question!" Takashi growled pushing her, causing her to fall on the ground.
"What's your problem?!" Sakura shouted throwing the bags at Takashi. "It was so peaceful without you!" Sakura tried to stand up but was pushed down again. This time her head hit the wall. Her vision blurred, she tried to get her mind straight, but her head was throbbing.
"What's going on?!" Sakura could hear her dad's angry voice. "You guys are fighting again?! Bandage her head now! She's bleeding all over the floor!"
"I don't want to help her," Takashi yelled going to his room. Their dad sighed and pulled his daughter over to the couch. He got out some bandages and began to wrap her head.
"What did I say about fighting? Especially in public. Don't embarrass me."
"He started it," Sakura shouted, wincing in pain.
"I don't care who started it. I just want it to stop." Sakura frowned and pushed her father's hands away.
"Whatever… It's just not the same without mom…" Sakura muttered under her breath and headed towards the kitchen to start on dinner.
Sakura woke up to find her head throbbing again. She groaned in annoyance. She didn't feel like handling Ino or Sasuke today. There was a tapping against her window. She opened her eyes to see Ino tapping her window with an eager smile. Ino slid the window open and stepped in. "What's wrong with your head?!" Ino asked shocked, "Did you get into another fight with Takashi?" Sakura nodded and held her head. "He's fourteen years old and he's only two years older than you. He can't do this to you."
"My dad doesn't try to stop him." Sakura mutters glaring at a random object.
"You know what will make you happy? Helping me with Sasuke!"
"Why do I have to do it? Ask the other Sakura…"
"No! She's my rival! You have known Sasuke since you were only six."
"So… Doesn't mean I like him." Sakura said getting up to change.
"Please!"
"Fine…" Sakura groaned grabbing her things. "Let's go." Ino cheered and they left to find the infamous Sasuke Uchiha. Ino was happily chatting away not knowing that Sakura wasn't listening to her. Sakura was thinking about other things.
Six-year-old Sakura was standing in front of a door. She smoothed out her blue sundress and used her fingers to comb through her black hair. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door three times. The door opened to reveal seven-year-old Sasuke. "What are you doing here?" Sasuke sneered.
"None of your business!" Sakura snapped back pushing him out of the way.
"Hey! This is my house! Get out!" Sasuke shouted.
"Itachi-san!" Sakura shouted jumping up and down. Itachi walked out of the kitchen holding a cup of tea. "Itachi-san!" Sakura squealed running up to him.
"Sakura-Chan… We don't train until three." Itachi chuckled patting the girl's head.
"I'm too excited!" Sakura said giving Itachi a sweet smile. Itachi took her hand and lead her towards the kitchen. Sakura turned her head and stuck her tongue out at Sasuke.
"We never got along…" Sakura laughed thinking about the past.
"What?" Ino asked confused.
"Nothing… So do you know where he is?" Sakura asked looking around.
"Yeah, he's training with his team." They headed to the training ground. There they saw Naruto and Sakura sparring. Sasuke on the other hand was sitting down with nothing to do. "He's right there! Go for it!" Ino encouraged pushing her towards Sasuke. Sakura went over to Sasuke and sat next to him. Sasuke looked over for a second then focused back on the match.
"So… How are you?" Sakura asked awkwardly.
"Hn."
"I'll take that as an okay…" Sakura didn't feel comfortable with Sasuke. She started to fidget and watched the match too. Sakura was obviously losing to Naruto.
"What do you want?" Sasuke asked irritated.
"I just wanted to know if you… could…" Sakura mumbled. 'Crap! I'm panicking! Just mention Ino!' Sakura shouted in her head, trying to get her thoughts straight. "I just wanted to know if you could hang out with me!" 'Did I just say me?! Crap!'
"You want to hang out?" Sasuke asked surprised. Sakura mentally groaned but nodded. 'I need to get close to him…'
"So is it a yes or no?" Sakura asked with a forced smile.
"Sure… I have nothing else to do…" Sasuke said watching the match.
Sakura got up and wiped the dirt off of her pants. "See you tomorrow then…"
So the first chapter is out! I'll try my best to get it out soon. No promises though! Please review! Feedback is good! :)
