"Your total is $14.59." The cash register let out a loud ching as she opened it and dropped the money in the drawer while taking out the appropriate change. "Here's your change. Thank you for shopping at Food Mart! " She said with a bright warm smile.
She was always like this, bright, jubilant, and simple. She was a classic beauty to all that laid eyes on her. Her soft pink hair that barely touched her shoulders, her porcelain skin that looked soft to the touch, her rosy pink lips and striking emerald eyes, her toned but curvy figure that she politely hid under her Food Mart uniform; all those things were the reason the chain of events that would take place over the next few weeks were unexpected to say the least.
"Hey Sakura!" said a tall blonde man with a cheerful smile plastered on his face. "Oh hello !" She looked over and saw her other professors, Sasuke Uchiha and Neji Hyuga standing behind their blonde haired friend and coworker. "How are you guys today?" "We're fine," he said as he handed her a pack of hot dogs, chips, and a box of Budweiser. She smiled as she looked up at the three towering men. "Preparing for the game tonight?" "Mmhm," Sasuke said smiling slightly. He never smiled, only for her. She had to be one of his favorite students. She grasped Trigonometry so quickly, she easily became a teacher's pet. Sakura slightly blushed and looked away as she keyed the information into the cash register. Neji smirked at Sasuke.
"Your total is $7.54," she said sweetly to the men as she held her hand out. "Wait shouldn't it be more?" asked Neji? "Yeaaah but I added my employee discount. It's good to have friends in high places isn't it?" she giggled. The men laughed and Naruto handed her the money. "See you Monday guys." "Bye Sakura!" the men said in unison.
Sakura began to clean up her station as she awaited her next customer. "Mr. Hyuga is soooo cute." Said Tenten, Sakura's coworker as she walked over to Sakura's station. Tenten was a year older than sakura who was 17 at the time, and was studying to become an architect. Sakura smiled at the girl and rolled her eyes. "I'm sure his fiancé thinks so too," sakura said sarcastically. "Ugh shutup shutup! Don't mention her. She ruined everything. Our relationship was so perfect in my head." Sakura burst into laughter. "Don't laugh at me, what about Mr. Uchiha?" Sakura blushed at the mention of his name. I see the way you look at him and the way he smiles at you. You want the D." The girls burst into laughter that was quickly silenced when they saw their boss approach. "Speaking of dicks…" muttered Tenten. "What was that TenTen?" the man asked. He was a tall slender man that wore a dark green button up shirt, black pants and shoes and an orange belt. His name tag read 'Rock Lee'. "Nothing Mr. Lee she said smiling sweetly as she walked back to her station.
"Anyways so Sakura," the man continued, "how's your day going so far?" "Fine Mr. Lee," she said trying to stay as blunt and professional as possible, hoping that he would get the hint. "Great! I bet I can turn your day from fine to fantastic!" he smiled cheekily. She forced an obviously uncomfortable grin. "How's that?" she said. "Well I have 2 tickets to Cold Play and I intended on taking a special young woman with me." He said slyly. "Oh how wonderful… I wonder who she could be," she said gritting her teeth. "You silly willy!" he said as he brushed the tickets playfully across her face. She flinched and said, "That's really sweet of you Mr. Lee but for the last time I would rather keep our relationship professional."
His eyes watered. "I understand…maybe next time." he whimpered as he slowly dragged himself back into his office. Sakura turned with a raised brow to Tenten who was checking out another customer. Tenten mouthed to her, "He's. such. A. CREEPER!" Sakura giggled and began to ring up her next customer as well. "Hi! How are you today," she said.
