XxXx The Game of Love xXxX

What Happened to Change?
Sakura

The school day went by faster than I expected. Before I knew it, school ended. This was the part I dreaded most, the date thing with Sasuke. It's not really considered a date I guess, but in a way it kind of is. I was currently outside of the gates, waiting for Sasuke to appear. Ino, Tenten, and Hinata were right by my side. "Ready for that date of yours?" Ino teased me.

"It's not a date," I said.

"Yes it is you and Sasuke Uchiha, hottie of the century!" Ino said.

I rolled my eyes at her, "Whatever, I've met hotter."

"Have you? Introduce me," Ino said, eyes wide.

"They're all in Korea dummy," I said, "plus, don't you like Gaara?"

She blushed, "Kind of, but that doesn't stop me from looking."

"Where'd Temari go?" I asked, changing the subject.

"She had to go home early, Kankurou was in the office," Tenten informed us.

"Oh," I said, looking at my phone. No text messages and no phone calls. I groaned in frustration at the fact that Ji Hyun hadn't texted me back. It was the only way I felt close to my friends back in Korea. I really did miss them, a lot. "You've been checking your phone like crazy, waiting for a call from Sasuke?" Ino asked me.

"No, he doesn't even know my number," I snapped.

"Then who are you waiting for?" Ino asked.

"My friends," I said in a tone that told her to drop it. She actually did drop it, I was quite surprised.

"Hey Sasuke," Ino said, snapping me back into reality.

"Hey, sorry I'm kind of late," Sasuke said. I just nodded at him.

"Well, we'll take our leave. Remember be home before 4!" Ino said dragging Hinata and Tenten off with her. I rolled my eyes at her childish behavior. Sasuke held out his arm, and I took it. "Ready to go?" he asked me. I nodded at him. We started walking away from the school. "So how long are you here for?" Sasuke asked, trying to start a conversation.

"Hm, I'm not sure," I answered truthfully.

"I see, missing Korea?"

I nodded at him, "I really miss it."

"Well, you'll eventually end up loving Japan too," he informed me.

"Oh really? What makes you say that?" I asked.

"Everyone that hangs out with me ends up loving Japan," he told me with a wink.

I secretly rolled my eyes, "What if I'm different?"

"Then I'm screwed cause I can't keep you here," Sasuke said. I laughed at how corny that was, but stopped when I saw the look in his eyes.

"You're serious?" I asked.

"Yeah," he said in a shy way. Wait, when was he ever shy? I narrowed my eyes slightly, has the game already begun? I bit my lip slightly, well if that's how you want play than I'll play along with you. I decided it was time for a change in the oh-so lovely subject that he brought up.

"So where are we going?"

"You'll see," he said.

"No, tell me now," I commanded, I hated surprises.

"Nope."

"If you don't I'll leave," I threatened.

"Fine fine, I'm taking you to sushi," he said.

"Sushi?" I asked.

"Yeah, you do know what sushi is right?"

"Duh, who doesn't? Why sushi?" I asked.

"Because it's popular here in Japan, and I know the best place ever."

"Oh."

It was silent for a while, we were just walking together. I decided to be brave and make the first move, "Tell me about you."

"Well I'm Sasuke Uchiha, I'm 18 and I go to Konoha Gakuen," he said with a smirk.

I rolled my eyes, "I know that already. Tell me all the juicy details."

"Well, you must've already heard but I'm pretty popular and hot."

"Well aren't you cocky?"

"That's just who I am," Sasuke said with his famous smirk.

"Well, I don't really dig cocky people," I said.

"Really?" he asked me in disbelief.

"Really, I like the gentleman type," I said, well I liked the type that can be boy toys but he didn't really need to know that.

"I can be a gentleman," he said.

"Really? I haven't seen that side yet," I said casually.

"Well, you'll see."

"If you say so," I said. Sasuke slowed down to a stop in front a big building. The sign read 'Sushi Shack' I laughed at the name of the restaurant. Who named their restaurant Sushi Shack? Like really. "No one ever comes here because of the name, but they make great sushi here," Sasuke informed me.

"I can see why people don't enter," I said.

"Well, they don't want to be judged by just their name and interior."

"Okay, but it's their fault that they don't great business," I said.

"I think they know that," Sasuke said.

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah yeah, are we going in?"

"Right," he said opening the door for me. I walked in and surveyed the place. It looked absolutely incredible. The tables had mainly two seats. The table cloth was white while all the chairs were red. "It's incredible here," I said.

"Isn't it? See that's why people shouldn't judge it by the name," Sasuke said. He sat me down at one of the tables near the window. He was trying super hard to be a gentleman. He had pulled my chair for me and even poured me my drink. It was such a great sight. Me, Sakura Haruno, could make the Sasuke Uchiha act this way. I smiled to myself; I haven't lost my touch yet. The food came pouring in before we even ordered. I gave Sasuke a confused look.

"I pre-ordered," he said.

"Oh," I said, taking a bite of my Makizushi roll. The minute I took a bite it felt as if I had died and went to heaven. Sasuke was right, their food was incredible. "It's super good here," I said, taking another bite of my sushi.

"What'd I tell you?" he said.

I smiled at him. I took out my phone and looked at the time 3:25 PM. 10 minutes later we were both done eating. "Ready to go home?" he asked me. I nodded at him. We walked out of the restaurant together. I had let him pay the bill since he oh-so wanted to. "Do you even know where I live?" I asked him.

"Ino's place right?"

"Yeah, do you know where that is?"

"Yeah, I've been there a lot."

"You have? What for?"

"Parties, stuff like that. Our group is quite close," he said.

"I see," I said. We walked a little bit more in silence, awkward silence that is. We finally reached our doorway. "Thanks for today," I said and started to walk inside, but he grabbed my arm. He turned me around and placed his lips on mine. About 5 seconds later he pulled away, "Remember me now?" Before I could even respond he was already out of sight. What the hell? Then it hit me, the game started. I smirked to myself, prepare to lose Sasuke Uchiha. I walked inside the house and was literally attacked by Ino.

"Holy shit!" I yelled in surprise.

"I saw that!" she said sing-songly.

"Saw what?" I snapped.

"The kiss!" she shouted.

"That was nothing," I said, "That just means that the game has started."

"Well he's got the upper hand now that he made the first move," Ino said.

"Oh, don't worry. I'll get him back at the party, you'll see."

Ino gave me an evil smile, "Sweet! Come on, Tenten and Hinata are waiting upstairs." I sighed as Ino dragged me upstairs.

"Hi Sakura-san," Hinata said.

"Hey," Tenten said, not looking up from her book.

"Hey," I said sitting on Ino's bed.

"Guess what guys?" Ino asked.

"You and Gaara finally hooked up," Tenten said, her eyes never leaving the book.

Ino gave her a weird look, "No. Sasuke and Sakura kissed!"

I groaned, "Like I said, it just means the game started. So whatcha reading Tenten?"

Tenten looked up from her book, "This book that Temari gave me, it's about the guys."

"Really?" I walked over to her and read over her shoulders.

"It's like the best book ever," Ino said.

"It did help me a lot when I wanted to ask Naruto-kun out on a date," Hinata confessed.

"You should use it to play with Sasuke," Ino said.

I smirked, "Not a bad idea Ino." Tenten handed me the book and I flipped it open to Sasuke's page. It was filled with a lot of writing and info.

"Whoa, there's so much information," I said in awe.

"I know, took me forever to get it out of Gaara," Temari said walking into Ino's room.

"When'd you get here?" I asked.

"Like 5 seconds ago, anyways. Time to change," Temari commanded.

I got up, taking the book with me, "I'll be back." I headed into my room and shut the door. I rummaged through my suitcases, looking for the perfect outfit. I pulled out a pair of red short shorts and a white tight fitting tank top. I then proceeded to take out red pumps. Satisfied with my outfit I walked out of my room and into Ino's. Everyone was already in their outfits. Ino had on a white mini skirt with a dark purple tube top. Temari was wearing a pair of black cheer shorts with a white tank top. Hinata was wearing white bermuda shorts with a light blue sweatshirt over it. Tenten was dressed in a pair of dark wash skinny jeans and a baggy white t-shirt. She pulled on a black/gold vest and was wearing a pair of Chanel Zero Dunks. "Whoa, you look hot Sakura," Ino commented from her bed.

"Thanks," I said sitting down on the floor near her closet.

"Okay so Sakura step on up, you're first," Temari said.

"First for what?" I asked feeling a little scared.

"Makeup and hair," Ino said with a hint of 'Duh', "I do makeup and Temari does hair."

I nodded, "Where do I go first?"

"Me," Temari said. I got up and walked over towards Temari, who was by the door. She took out a gold brush and started to brush my hair. Temari then turned up her straightener and started to straighten my hair. After she was done I got up and walked over to Ino. I plopped down on the bed and watched Ino as she quickly selected a few tools. She started to apply eyeliner, mascara, and a tint of eye shadow. "All done!" she exclaimed. I got up, rolled my eyes, and went to my room to retrieve my cell phone. One Unread Message from Ji Hyun. I smiled to myself as I happily walked back into Ino's room.

"No! Do not come near me with that eyeliner Sakura!" I heard Tenten yell. I looked up to see Ino trying to put eyeliner on Tenten, and Tenten trying to push her off. "She looks fine without makeup," I said.

Ino pouted, "Okay fine."

Tenten shot me a grin, "Thanks."

"Payback for the book," I answered. She nodded and went over to Ino's closet. The doors were made out of mirror so it was easy to look at yourself. Tenten fixed the two buns on her head and then sat down. Hinata, Ino, and Temari already had their hair and makeup done. I flipped open my phone and started to read my text message.

Well it sounds like that Sasuke dude is your next boy toy no? I think you should let him play you for a little while and then strike back. BAM! He'll never know what hit him, but don't listen to me. I'm only a guy. Have you been partying like we told you to? Remember to stay away from the cops though. Noona! It's me Brian! Miss me? Cause I miss you! We started a club just for you : D I hope you come back soon cause I'm lonely : (. Have fun in Japan noona!

I laughed to myself, and looked up to see Tenten, Ino, Temari, and Hinata looking at me. "Er, hi?"

"Why were you laughing?" Ino asked me.

"Obviously because of the text," Tenten replied.

"I have to agree with Tenten on this one Ino," Temari said.

Hinata nodded. "Oh, fine pick on me," Ino replied sulking in the corner.

"Come on, let's go," Temari said.

I nodded before sending quick text to Ji Hyun telling him that I'm out partying and I'll text them back ASAP. I threw my phone on my bed and walked out of the house with my friends. It's actually kind of funny; I actually had girlfriends here in Japan. It seemed like every girl hated me back in Korea, maybe I should really change. I shook my head to get rid of that thought. No, I had already begun to play the game. There was no backing out now, and I definitely couldn't lose to someone like Sasuke. We hopped into Ino's car and she drove off like a mad woman again. I laughed as me, Hinata, and Tenten kept leaning against each other after every turn. We finally pulled into a stop in front of a nice house.

"Time to party!" Ino declared as she dragged us all inside. I laughed as we entered the house. Naruto ran over to us and put his arm Hinata and started to drag her off. Ino and Temari started walking off towards Gaara and Shikamaru. Neji approached me and Tenten, "Mind if I whisk Tenten away?"

"Be my guest," I said absent mindly, not even seeing her wide eyed 'No!' expression. He smirked at me, but I didn't see that either. Soon I was left alone; I smirked as I spotted Sasuke. Game on. I walked over towards him and tapped his shoulder. He turned around, "Hey."

"Hey," I said with a smile on my face. I pushed my face closer to his, until we were basically nose to nose. He leaned closer to kiss me, but I turned my head to the side so he missed my lips. "Teasing me now?" Sasuke asked.

"Maybe," I said tilting my head to the side.

His face neared mine again, "No one gets away after teasing me."

"I'm different," I said in a seductive tone. I gave him a small smile, pushed his dace away from mine, and watched his move, but before he could even do anything I felt someone tap my shoulders. I turned around, "What?"

"Who the hell do you think you are?" asked the girl from earlier today, the slut who told me to stay away from Sasuke.

"I think I'm Sakura," I said with a smirk.

"Didn't I tell you to stay away from Sasuke? He's mine got that bitch."

"He's yours? Are you sure, because it seems like he's into me," I said narrowing my eyes at that bitch.

"He's using you to make me jealous."

"Well then if that's true, I guess it's working isn't it?"

She growled at me, "You're such a slut."

"I know."

"See you're such a slut that you don't even care."

"Bitch, your opinion doesn't matter to me."

"My opinion matters to everyone."

"Sure it does. Now run along."

"You bitch!" she raised her hand and slapped me across the face. Oh bitch, you're going down.

"Newsflash! You want to fight? Use your fists and not your palm okay?" I said before forming a fist and punching her straight in the nose.

She cried out in pain, "My nose!"

"Oh go buy yourself a new one," I snarled at her. I turned away from her, but she tackled me from behind and pulled my hair. Sheesh, yet again with the hair. Has my hair ever done anything to you? No, I didn't think so. She was currently on top of me, trying to punch me. I growled and pushed her off of me and I pinned her down. I sat on her with all my weight and started to punch her. Right fist, left fist, right fist, left fist, she messed with the wrong person. She pulled on my hair again and tried to slap me with her right hand. The minute her hand came near my mouth I bit her, hard. Then I punched her again in the face. I could hear the crowd shouting 'Fight! Fight! Fight!', but I ignored them.

"Whoa there," I heard Naruto say as he dragged me off of that slut. He held with strong arms so that I couldn't break free, no matter how hard I struggled.

"Let me go!" I shouted, struggling more.

"No can do," he said as he took me into a random corner of the house. My blood was boiling, what a slut. I saw her friend rush over to her and try to help her up. Once she was up she charged at me again, I broke away from Naruto and we started all over again. I was currently on top and punching the fucking living daylights out of her before Naruto pulled me off of her again. This time, instead of dragging me into a random corner he took me upstairs and walked into a room. He closed the door behind him and looked over at me. I was sure I looked like a mess to him.

"Dude, you totally won!" was all he said before he walked over to the bathroom to get the first aid kit. Soon Ino, Hinata, Tenten, Temari, Shikamaru, Neji, and Gaara were in the room. "Damn! You beat the living shit out of Karin!" Ino shouted.

"Karin?" I asked, totally clueless.

"That was the girl you were fighting," Temari informed me. I nodded slightly and stood up. I looked at myself in the mirror. I only had a semi-busted lip. I gently touched my lip and winced in pain. Well, that hurt. I walked out of the bathroom and sat down on the bed while Ino kept talking.

"It was so awesome! You so beat her face in! Congrats! She totally deserves it, she's such a slut!" Ino said.

"Uh-huh, I agree," Temari said nodding.

"We all hate her," Tenten said.

Hinata nodded. She took out the ointment from the first aid kit and started to put it on my lip. I hissed slightly, but allowed her to continue. The minute she finished I got up and walked out of the door, "I'm going."

"See you at home," Ino called out.

"See you Monday Sakura-chan!" Naruto shouted.

Everyone else just waved as I walked out of the door. I didn't see that Karin girl, and I was glad. She was such a bitch, I hated her fucking guts. I pushed past all the people that were blocking the door. I finally reached it and swung it open and walked off, feeling frustrated. "Hey the party's the other way," I heard Sasuke say.

"I'm leaving," I said, walking even faster. My heel got stuck in a big crack and the heel broke. I cried out in surprise and pain. My ankle hurt, it must've gotten twisted. Sasuke rushed over towards me and helped me up, "Let me take you home."

"Sure," I said, letting him since I didn't want my other heel to break and me having two twisted ankles. He helped me up and we walked to Ino's house slowly. I walked up the steps, "Thanks."

"No problem."

He lingered at the doorway, and so did I. "Well, I'll see you Monday at school I guess."

I nodded at him, "Bye."

"Bye."

I walked inside. I walked straight to my room and closed the door. I glanced at my cell phone. No unread messages. I sighed as I flipped open my cell phone and sent everyone in Korea the damage report from the party. I sighed to myself as I clicked send and buried my head into the pillow. I've only been here for like 3 days and I've already gotten into another fight. Guess change wasn't going to happen anytime soon was it? I laughed out loud as I got up to take a shower. After I was done I went straight into my bed and turned on my I Pod. Lies by Big Bang blasted through the headphones.

(yeah) love is pain
Dedicated to all my broken-hearted people
One's old a flame... just scream my name

I'm so sorry but I love you leave me and could you forget me slowly so I can hurt ))

Well then, I guess I just have to keep playing the game until I win. I will not fall in love with him, and I will win. I will end up victorious, no matter what. I turned off my I Pod and drifted off to sleep. Tomorrow was the weekend and I couldn't wait to see what plans I'll end up having. Good Night.


Well there is chapter 3. I hope you enjoyed it, and yes I know it sucks . I hope you liked it though. The date was kind of rushed, but fear not! There will be another date soon enough. Well I said enough. Remember I'm still in need of a Beta : D Review please!
