Okay I'm neglecting my stories but this idea had to be done!
She was a demon
He a prince
She loved him
And he could only hate….
"Sakura! Princess!" the servant ran towards the room panting heavily. She scanned the room quickly. Shit…the princess was gone…
On to Sakura
She looked at the full moon gazing intently. Did father and mother wish this upon her? To marry a man she had never even met? She knew it was coming she knew she would have to marry him. She had known this since she was a young child.
Her long kimono dragged across the floor. Going through mud and stones. Tsubaki will have my head she thought, giggling. Tsubaki was the head servant. She was Sakura's nanny. Sakura considered her as her own mother.
Sakura remembered when she was younger.
Flash Back
"Sakura if I've told you once I have told you a hundred times! Mind your kimonos! A lady doesn't have to walk in the mucky gardens! She stays inside and does elegant things! She does not play in a muddy garden making mud pies and playing ants!"
"I'm sowy Baki I won't do it ever again."
End of Flash Back
She laughed thinking of other times she had drove Tsubaki crazy. Like when she was 12 years old.
Flash Back
"Sakura-sama!" Tsubaki yelled as she ran out the gates of the mansion. She quickly caught sight of Sakura beating an older and much larger boy to a bloody pulp.
"Take it back scum!" Sakura screeched.
"Why?! Your mother was a traitor! That's why she married a monster as vile as your father! You know what good riddance they died! They deserved it! Something like you shouldn't even exist!" The boy yelled back. Sakura's shoulder length hair started to grow out turning a deep red as did her eyes. Blood red.
"Die- " Just then Tsubaki grabbed Sakura's arm before she could cause further damage to the boy. Tsubaki held Sakura back helping the boy up.
"MONSTER!" He yelled before running away.
"Tsubaki, why did you stop me?" she yelled. "He deserves to die!"
" Sakura calm down." Tsubaki pulled the girl into a hug. "Its okay Sakura you are not a monster." Sakura started to tear up.
"Mother and father loved each other that's why they eloped. That's why I was born! Tears fell from her eyes as she broke into sobbing. "M-My mother was not traitor! She loved me? Right Tsubaki she did right?" Her tear streaked cheeks and watery eyes looking up at Tsubaki.
"No your mother and father loved you very very much Sakura." Sakura continued to sob.
"Come let's go back to the mansion." She held Sakura's hand and took her back to the large mansion. The guards looking relieved as they saw the 12 year old back home and seemingly unharmed.
"Sorry Kenta" She turned her head to the other. "Ginta"
The two boys let out a sigh "Sakura-sama we cannot protect you if you always run away!" Kenta said exasperatedly. His turquoise hair and purple eyes looking worried.
"Princess next time you leave I will make you spend hours meditating with the Bo-Jing Wei! " Ginta huffed angrily. His purple hair and turquoise eyes angry and menacing.
"NO!" Sakura yelled in worry. "Not Bo-Jing Wei! He can meditate forever! And after that he makes me train and study!" Bo-Jing Wei was only 15 but the boy worked like a slave dog. He had the wisdom of a mage and was as calm as a pond. But it took a priest's
calmness to deal with him. Bo Jing Wei was unbearably calm to an inhuman extent and he was incredibly strict. Could you really blame a child for having hard time dealing with him? Even Ginta and Kenta found him annoying even though they were only 19 and the time.
"Then NO more running off without either me Kenta with you! Get it!" He yelled.
"Got it!" she yelled back.
Kenta laughed tears daring spill over. Tsubaki smiled. That's another way to discipline a child. She thought.
End of Flash Back
She remembered that day and smiled. It was only four years ago. Her eyebrows came together. She still had to meditate with Bo-Jing Wei that day and she had to study with him. She sat in the corner. Thinking of the first time she had got a letter from "Raven"
Flash Back
"Princess I have a letter for you its from your fiancé." Sakura looked at Tsubaki her long hair cascading down her back.
"I don't want to read it." She huffed.
"Sakura at least he tries to keep in contact."
"No…"
"Sakura-"
"Tsubaki, why can't this "Raven" tell me his actual name instead of using the name Raven? Why must I read letters from a man I do not know?"
"Because he is your fiancé. Princess." Tsubaki stroked the brush through the girl's hair. "Now please read it." Sakura huffed.
"Fine."
Dear Cherry Blossom,
Your smile lights up the night sky. Your beauty unmatched. You will face many obstacles but I need you to stay strong. You are strong as a warrior I believe in you.
All my love Raven.
She starred at the beautiful writing of the short letter. Tears prickled her eyes. It was so short but it felt so strong. She had never met this man yet he cared enough to write a letter to her.
"Tsubaki!" She turned her head. Tsubaki turned the girl's head forward. And continued braiding the girls long pink locks. "The girls eyes turned from their deep emerald to pink her hair turning a lighter color.
"Princess? Is something the matter?" Tsubaki asked. It had been the first time she had ever seen the princess with this color hair before. She had seen many different colors because the princess's hair and eyes would change color if she had a very strong emotion or feeling. Or…well that but that wasn't going to happen Tsubaki thought. I'm here to prevent that.
"Yes I'm fine." She smiled. A blush forming on her cheeks.
"Whatever you say princess." Tsubaki stood after finishing the long braid. She put a string of cherry blossoms in the 13 year olds hair. Tsubaki left the room. Sakura suddenly had the urge to learn calligraphy.
"Bo-Jing Wei! Can you teach me calligraphy?" She nearly yelled.
"What princess wants to learn I will be right there!"
End of Flash Back
After that she received many letters from " Raven." She had developed feelings for him after the very first letter. And with everyone her heart would beat faster. Some letters pages long others as short as one word. But she kept every single one.
Apart from her servants the princess had no other friends. So for "Raven" to always give her such kind words. And talk as if he cared…even loved her she was happy. But even so…she had never met him in person. What if he didn't like her? What if she didn't like him? She was quickly brought out of her thoughts.
"Sakura-sama!" Tsubaki yelled angrily. Shit when she used Sakura-Sama instead of Princess she knew she was in trouble. "I have told you not to run in the muddy gardens! It's raining for goodness sakes!" Tsubaki said exasperatedly. "And where are Ginta and Kenta they should be with you!"
"Well…hahaha about that…"
"Sakura-sama! You are to meet you fiancé and you run out in a day like today look you are soaked! And your kimono is ruined!" Tsubaki grabbed her arm and towed her back to the mansion. This will not do at all!" Tsubaki dragged her into the bathing room and quickly bathed her. Scrubbing out the mud and daubery. Her fair white skin shinned. Tsubaki dried the girl of quickly and then dragging her to a room to find another kimono. Lecturing her about how she had just ruined a work of art that the tailor must have slaved over to make. She pulled out a baby blue kimono covered in kikus. She quickly dressed Sakura obsessing over every detail.
"Sit." Tsubaki ordered. If there had been one thing Sakura had learned it was that when Tsubaki was angry do exactly what she says if you value your life. Sakura sat quickly. "Esh… I worked so hard to make you look perfect and now I must do it again!" Tsubaki combed through the long hair getting out every not making it look silky and smooth. She placed blue and white kikus.
"Look at me." Tsubaki ordered. Sakura turned to her she was frightened but she knew she was in the clear. Tsubaki stared a small smile on her lips. "Perfect but it's missing something…she opened a jewelry box and got out a silver necklace with a blue diamond as a pendant. She placed it around Sakura's neck.
"NOW it is perfect." Tsubaki declared. "Princess, PLEASE I BEG of you do not leave this room!"
"Yeah…Yeah…"
Tsubaki stalked out of the room. Shutting the slide door. Sakura sat but within 20 seconds of sitting she was bored. No, Sakura don't move! Think of it as a competition with yourself! She sat for only 5 minutes when her eyes started to get heavy and within a few seconds she was sleeping.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
After 3 hours
"PRINCESS!" she heard Kenta's voice in panic. "Your fiancé is here!" She slowly stirred. She moaned.
"Princess please! Wake up!"
"What's wrong Kenta?"
"OH MY GOD! WHY IS SHE SLEEPING?!" She heard Ginta's voice boom. "Wake up or I swear you will spend two days with Bo-Jing Wei!" Her eyes widened. No! Even at this age the thought of having to spend all that time with Bo-Jing Wei was still repulsive.
"I'm up! I'm up! Please don't make me spend two WHOLE days with Bo-Jing Wei! That's just cruel!" Sakura exclaimed waving her arms around so they would understand the utter cruelty of that punishment.
"I've still got it" Ginta stated proudly.
"Yes, you do but princess the prince has arrived it would be very rude if he had to wait for you." Kenta said kindly. Holding out his hand. Sakura grabbed it thankfully walking out the door alone. She rushed so she wouldn't be late but then hitting something hard and falling to the ground.
"Itai!" She looked up to see a raven-haired boy with onyx eyes staring down at her. He wore a hakama with elaborate designs. It was a deep green color that seemed to make his pale skin stand out even more. And he was easily the most beautiful person she had ever seen. She stared at him through her eyelashes.
"U..I..SORRY!" He watched her reaction in shock at the sudden outburst. But slowly a small smirk made itself apparent on his features. He walked away without turning back.
Well that was rude. I just apologized and he smiles at me! What a weird guy…
OOOOOOOO
Enter the main roomSakura sat as she waited for her fiancé prince "Raven." Her head down, staring at the floor. She could feel Tsubaki's presence next to her own. Her hair started to turn a light shade of blue as well as her eyes. She reached for the letter hidden in her sleeve from Raven. Instantly turning her to her regular color.
Her eyes continued to wonder the floor. Her fingers brushing against the letter. Its okay Sakura its okay. She repeated this over and over in her head.
She was quickly drawn out of her trance as she heard the sliding door open. A soft thudding of two sets of feet and a thump assuming they had sat down.
She had a quick internal battle. Look, look up and see who it is…No! I can't what if he doesn't love me? What if he thinks I'm weird? What if he hates me.
"Ehem the prince is very apologetic that his parents were not able to attend. His mother is sick and his father could not make it at last minute. His majesty feels a great distain and hopes it will cause no complexities or hard feelings with the princess." The servant stated. He seemed more like an advisor and less of a caretaker.
Tsubaki spoke. "The princess feels no such thing. She is happy either way that she has been granted the honor of marrying the prince of the Emperor Fugaku." She snorted almost inaudibly. She didn't have a choice in this marriage either way she new that the Uchiha's were a very powerful family and if they wanted to could make a life horrible in a matter of seconds. She couldn't have said no. So she said yes. Or was it predetermined? She had known she was already engaged since she was a young girl. So other than servants she could not spend anytime with males. Not that they wanted to hang out with her anyway…
She lifted her head and stared at the boy…man in front of her. He was the one she bumped into! His eyes caught hers. He smiled a small smirk. Enough to make her heart stop. Was this Raven. The Raven who had given her life meaning?
"Jiro would Tsubaki? I presume? I would like to spend time alone with my future wife. Can we be left alone?"
"Of course my lord!" Jiro exclaimed he got up quickly as did Tsubaki leaving the young couple alone.
"Uh…My name is Sakur-"
"I know who you are." She wished she could say the same for him. "My name is Sasuke Uchiha son of Fugaku Uchiha. You may also know me as Raven? I do love your calligraphy Sakura. It is beautiful. Just as you are." He got closer to her. Brushing a lock of her hair behind her ear. She blushed at mad shade of pink her hair and eyes following suit.
"Hn…interesting…I wonder what would happen if I…" He trailed of. He got closer to her once again. His lips brushed against hers. The kiss was soft as feathers and quiet as a whisper.
"Sasuke-sama we should wait unti-" She was cut of by another kiss. This one more forceful then the last. She then felt his tongue lightly trace her bottom lip. Begging for entrance. Her hair turned red as her face her eyes red as well. She was dizzy she was going to faint.
Just then he pulled back. She gasped for air. "VERY interesting." I will have fun with this one he thought. "Sakura you may not know this but I have always loved you. And I always will. I have watched you grow. And I would like to stand by you as you continue to grow." The world was spinning one second he kissed her the next he expressed his undying love for her. "Sakura I want us to get married as soon as possible. Father said it would be best. So the marriage will take place tonight. We have chosen a dress that would be much fitting to your beauty." What she thought tonight? But he loved her right he was the only one who loved her.
"Oh..Okay…"She said dumbly.
"Prepare yourself for your bridal night." He smirked evilly. " I have chosen a selection of things I think are most appropriate. Wear a sexy smelling perfume." He ordered. Her blush deepening. If that was even possible.
"I'll see you tonight Cherry Blossom." He pecked her cheek. Before walking off. She could not even respond.
