One Year Later- "Congrats Sakura on being the class's valedictorian!!" Many students said. She just smiled and said, "Thanks." It was finally over senior year.. She could use this summer wisely and find her best friend.. "Sakura-chan!"

A voice called out. She turned to see Sasuke smiling, "Congrats!" She said, "Thanks, by the way sasuke what are you doing this summer?" Sasuke said, "Visiting my father and my brother in Europe." She said, "Really! I'm going to Europe too! To visit an old friend of mine!"

Sasuke shocked said, "Alone!? Sakura, that's dangerous!" Sakura giggled and said, "No, silly! I have my bodyguards as my dad calls them.." Her dad was a big time businessman and her mother was a skilled doctor. So, the Haruno family was extremely wealthy.. Her dad was so over-protective of her it took her weeks to convince her dad to let her go to the prom with sasuke as just friends!

"Your over-protective dad.. That was an interesting experience.." He smirked. Sakura said, "Stop making fun of that.. It was so embarrassing I'm so sorry about that.. I said this about a million times and you still remind me.."


Flashback- The door bell rang in the Haruno residence. Sakura's mother answered the door to see a handsome raven-haired guy and smiled, "You're sakura's date right sasuke-kun?" Sasuke nervously said, "H-Hai." Her mother called out, "Sakura, honey your date is here."

Her shrilly voice could be heard from downstairs, "Mother, I've told you 8 millions times he's not my date! He's my friend! God!!" She slowly came down the stairs to reveal a stunning sakura-chan...

Her long pink hair was curled at the ends..her long green dress brought out those emerald eyes of hers. She looked simply amazing..Sakura who got her pink purse said, "What are you gaping at!?"

Sasuke just smirked, "You, Sakura-chan." Sakura turned slightly pink and her mother said, "Ooh how cute!! this boy here is making you blush." Sakura angrily said, "He's just my friend!" Her mother said, "Well go now! Have fun honey!"

Sakura said, "Yea, yea!" All of a sudden her father ran into the room and said, "My beautiful daughter is growing up so fast!! you look amazing!!" She said, "Thanks dad." His eyes darted to sasuke and said, "This is your date?" Sakura said, "My friend.." for the millionth time!

He grabbed sasuke and sat him down in a chair and said, "Have you done any drugs? Been caught doing any indecent activities?? No drinking any alcohol or smoking right??" Throwing questions at sasuke left and right he said, "Umm.. sir, I don't do any of that.. I do drink champagne from time to time but, that's about it. You know me I'm sakura's friend."

He said, "this is different you're her date for the senior prom it's clearly different. If I find you have ruined the purity of my daughter it will be the end of you." Sasuke nervously said, "S-Sakura-chan, would you like to leave now?" Sakura said, "Let's go! See you later mom and dad! She dashed out the door towards the limo as her dad screamed, "Come back by 11:30 pm or else!!"


PRESENT- Sakura said, "He'll never change..He's sending many of his guards with me. Also he wants me to call once a week and write letters every 2 weeks.. I swear.." Sasuke said, "well he is only making sure his only daughter will be safe."

Sakura said, "He takes it over the limit.. He is letting me take his private jet as well.. I'm leaving tomorrow morning." Sasuke said, "Is it possible for me to come as well? " Sakura looked at him and said, "What about your mom?" Sasuke answered, "My mom won't come to Europe until another month actually she isn't fond of seeing my father." Sakura said, "I guess so.."

She went home and started packing for Europe where should she start?? Spain? France? Italy? She had already put up many ads in Europe saying she's looking for Itachi uchiha and they would start to air today.. so hopefully that would help..

Next morning... "I'll be leaving bye mom! dad!" She yelled. "Have a nice trip!" they said. she boarded the private jet to see Sasuke already there. "so, where are we going first?" He asked. Sakura said, "Actually, I thought if I dropped you off first and then.." Sasuke said, "You don't want me to accompany you is it? Are you in love with this guy or something?"

Sakura said, "He's my best friend from a long time ago... I desire to meet him again that's all." "To put ads already in Europe looking for him he must be something special to you sakura-chan.."

He sternly said. " What are you implying?" She grew angrier with each passing second. He said, "You are in love with this guy." Sakura said, "Impossible I haven't seen him for over a decade! How will I know how he is now!?"

Sasuke said, "Okay, whatever forget I said anything." Sakura looked over at him.. She knew he was troubled..She knew he liked her that was obvious..

He was just jealous to a point of being a jerk becuase she was spending her summer searching all of europe for.. this one person..


IN EUROPE- "Itachi, your mother and brother will be arriving later today." His father retorted. "Yea, yea.." He said. He didn't get along with his younger brother much but, he missed his mother.

His mother was kind and very loving. She also encouraged him to do new things and not study all day.. Although his father said he had to be the best.. That was where their differences came to two different roads..

Before he moved from Penn. to here she was pregnant with Sasuke and stayed in Europe for 6 years and then had enough of it and divorced his father and moved to New York.

He had a vague memory of his first best friend a young girl with pink hair and emerald eyes who moved to NJ. Her words even comforted him now.. "I don't care if you are. Do what makes you happy." She had the most angelic voice ever and her looks surpassed any of the girls back then.

Though he had an attachment to the girl the father yelled at him for it.. The reason for their move was their friendship although he lied to her saying it was a job change... He didn't want to make the young naive girl feel guilty the rest of her life..

Flashback- "Welcome home Itachi." His father said. He turned to see his father and said, "Hey dad." His father said, "I have important to tell you." He said, "What is it?" "We're moving next month back to Europe."

Itachi said, "What!?" He said, "Your grades are slowly slipping you got an 87 on your last exam." "But, Dad!" he cried out. His dad sternly said, "I've been telling you to stay away from that girl but, you aren't listening to me.. This if for your own good son.." Mitoki who was cleaning saw Itachi sobbing on the couch.

His mother made it over to him and said, "Itachi, I'm so sorry honey." She hugged him. She continued, "I tried to convince him out of it but, he seems so focused on making you the perfect student."

Itachi managed to choke out, "W-Why do I have to be perfect? Sakura told me the first day I met her that she doesn't care if I am. She likes me for who I am." Mitoki smiled, "Maybe she is the one. Itachi, you're a smart boy you'll be able to find her even after the move." Itachi hugged his mother, "I don't know what to do."

Two weeks before the move- Sakura knocked at the Uchiha's door and itachi opened it and said, "Hey, Sakura." Sakura looked serious and said, "What is this that I'm hearing of you moving away to Europe!"

Itachi looked downwards and said, "It's true.. I'm moving because of my dad' s job it's been relocated." He managed to tell her that lie. Sakura looked at him and said, "B-But, Europe is so far away Itachi-kun, I'll miss you so much." She hugged him.


PRESENT- His father and him hardly get along these days.. He still manages to have his high scores with girls always fawning over him He didn't care much for them though..

He was just trying hard to finish college get a good job and be able to have his own life. So he wouldn't have to see his father again. He missed his mother dearly though... He could care less about his little brother..

His brother was 16 years old and just graduated high school but, wasn't valedictorian, which was a disgrace according to their father. He remembered something that Sasuke was talking about last summer he came here..

Flashback- "So, you like any girls little brother?" He smirked. Sasuke said, "Well my best friend a girl that is pretty smart she'll probably be first in the class. I like her a lot but, she sees me as nothing more than a friend even if we went to junior prom together."

Sasuke asked, "Ni-san, do you like anyone? I know that you have girls constantly fawning over you." Itachi said, "No one in particular."

Present- how sad that must be for Sasuke.. His best friend doesn't even feel the same..

This summer was surely going to be an interesting one..

"Itachi, I have someone I want you to meet." His father said. He turned around to meet the eyes of..


Preview for the Next Chapter-

What happens when Itachi meets the person his father wanted him to meet??

Itachi looked at the girl in front of him, which he knew with long brown hair and chocolate brown eyes.

His dad said, "I believe you two already know each other?"

The girl who was very proper said, "Yes, I know him Itachi Uchiha. Top of the class."

Itachi said, "Second of the class aren't you?" She smirked, "You've done your research."

Itachi said, "What's the meaning of this?"

"This is your future wife." His father said.

That stung his ears did he hear right his future what?!
