Thank you for the reviews. I appreciate it.
Recap:
"I made you a love letter for Amane." Sakura said giving a fake smile. "Just write it on a new paper. Amane knows my handwriting. And you can edit the words if you want."
"Hn. Thank you." Sasuke said quietly.
"No problem." Sakura said still giving Sasuke a fake smile.

"Love Letter"
Chapter 6 - Love is everywhere
(TIMESKIP)
2 days after Sakura gave Sasuke the love letter. She hadn't seen him for 2 whole days! Sakura passed Ichiraku and saw Naruto talking with a blushing Hinata. Sakura laughed when Naruto asked Hinata if she has a fever or something. She also passed Team Gai's training grounds. She saw Neji and Tenten sparring. She giggled when she saw Neji kissed her on the cheek and she got distracted. She giggled more because Tenten began chasing Neji around the training grounds with a kunai on her right hand. Sakura sighed and began to walk. 'Love is everywhere' she thought. Sakura is walking towards the Yamanaka Flower shop. She saw her best friend, Ino shouting at her boyfriend.
"Hey, Shika-kun, you lazy-ass! Help me pick this boxes up! It's so heavy." Ino shouted at her lazy boyfriend, who is currently sleeping at the couch.
Sakura sweatdropped.
"Troublesome woman." Shikamaru muttered lazily.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Ino yelled angrily.
"N-nothing." Shikamaru stuttered nervously. Ino is just scary when she's angry.
"Good." Ino smiled and flipped her long blonde hair. Wow, talk about mood swings.
Sakura sweatdropped again. Are they really a couple? Ino finally noticed Sakura's presence. She ran up to her and gave her a big hug.
"FOREHEAD-GIRL! I FREAKIN' MISS YOU!" Ino shouted.
Sakura sweatdropped. (again?) "Heh, Heh. I miss you too. You pig!" Sakura said.
"By the way, what are you doing here?" Ino asked.
"Oh. I forgot. I need to buy a dozen of red roses." Sakura said.
"For what?"
"I don't know. My mom told me to buy for her."
"Oh okay." Ino said as she made her way to the roses section. She took 12 red roses and put them in a plastic. "Here." Ino handed her the plastic.
"Thanks! Well, I have to go. Bye Shikamaru, Ino-pig!" Sakura said and she made her way to the exit.
Sakura walked towards her house. (Man, I use 'towards' so much. Sorry! Hehe.) She unlocked the door and went in. She went to the kitchen and placed the flower on top of the table. She went to the refrigerator and saw a note,
Dear, Sakura.
Hi sweetie. Me and your dad decided to visit your grandma and grandpa. So we may come back in a day or two. And I placed your allowance on top of your drawer. Oh and the flowers, place it in the vase. Take care honey.
Love, mom & dad.
Sakura groaned. Again? Oh well. She was used of being alone in the house. Sakura placed the dozen of roses in their vase and placed the vase on the middle of the dining table. She went to her room and changed to her red pajamas. She walked in front of her drawer and saw her allowance.
DING DONG! DING DONG!
She ran downstairs and yelled a "COMING!" She opened the door and saw Sasuke. She gave him a fake smile. She motioned him to go in and motioned him to sit on the couch. But he shook his head.
"No need, Sakura. But thanks. I just wanted to give this to you." Sasuke held out a baby blue and baby pink envelope. Sakura gave him a confused look.
"I edited the love letter. I want you to read it first before I give it to her." Sasuke said. Sakura nodded and gave him a fake smile. He said "Bye." quietly and walked away.
Sakura frowned. She decided to read it later. She placed the envelope on the table near the couch. Sakura sat on the couch and stretched her arms.
DING DONG!
"COMING!" She yelled.
Sakura opened the door but this time it's not Sasuke. It's Amane. She let her in and Amane sat on the couch. Sakura closed the door and locked it and sat beside Amane.
SAKURA'S POV
"Hey Sakura." Amane called.
"Yes?" I replied.
"Ano, why aren't you with Sasuke these past few days?" She asked.
I was shocked when she asked me that question. I wanted to say that, 'Maybe he has no time for me anymore and maybe that's because of you.' But of course, I didn't say that.
"I don't know. Maybe he's ignoring me?" I said.
"Maybe because you dumped him?" Amane teased.
My eyes widened. I think I should be the one who has to ask that question to her. Maybe Amane-chan knows something that I didn't know?
"Ugh! That bastard! I told him that you both make a cute couple if ever you answer him. You started as friends. But he's so slow. He can't even confess to you." Amane said.
My eyes widened more. (O.O) And my jaws dropped. She continued babbling about Sasuke and me. And this sentence made me shocked. As in more shocked.
"He called me and asked me to help him court you." Amane said.
"WHAT? I thought that he likes you! He even asked me for help?" Sakura shouted and stood up.
"Sakura, calm down. Then I'll tell you."
"Fine!" I said and counted 1 to 5 and then sat down beside her.
"I'm not the one that Sasuke likes. It's you. Okay? Don't say anything or I'll cut your tongue. I'm not yet finished," She said. I nodded my head nervously afraid that she might cut my tongue. "So yeah, he called me and asked me for help. I'll explain. So this is how it happened,"
FLASHBACK;
"Hello?" Amane answered.
"Uh. Hello, Amane. It's Sasuke." Sasuke said.
"Uh. Hi? How did you get my number?"
"Sakura."
"Well, do you need something?" she asked.
"I need to ask you something." Sasuke said in a serious tone.
"Okay. What is it?"
"Uh. Can you help me c-court y-your b-bestfriend?" Sasuke stuttered nervously.
"And my bestfriend's name is?" Amane teased.
Sasuke growled. "Sakura, duh!"
Amane laughed. "Of course I know."
"Then why do you ask?" Sasuke asked irritated.
"Nothing. I just want to tease you." Amane said while giggling.
"Are you going to help me or not?"
"Hihi. -ahem- Sure! For my bestfriend, Sakura!"
"So what will I do?" Sasuke asked.
"Uhm. Just court her like other guys do. I'm sure she will answer you."
"That's the problem. It's my first time. And I do not know how to court a girl."
"HAHAHA! Are you serious? It's your first time to court a girl? Why? Did you court a guy before?" Amane teased.
"SHUT. UP! AND. I. AM. NOT. GAY." Sasuke clenched his teeth.
"HAHAHA! -ahem- Okay, I understand." Amane said.
Sasuke didn't reply.
"So, you will do like this. Let's make it unique, okay?"
No reply.
"Ask her if she can help YOU to court ME. That way, she will be jealous. And I know her techniques. For example, she said something like 'That's so corny' or anything. Act like you're hurt. Then she will make you a love letter for YOU to give to ME, as an apology. She will say that you can edit it or whatever. You edit the letter by changing her penmanship to YOUR penmanship. Then change MY name to HER name. That way she will be confused and call you to talk to her. Then when you're in front of her, that's the time you confess your true feelings to her." Amane panted after saying it.
"And how did you know her techniques?" Sasuke asked suspiciously.
"Oh. Nothing. Let's just say she's the one who make me and my first boyfriend together 8 years ago. She's a matchmaker!" Amane said proudly.
"Your first boyfriend? 8 years ago? And your age that time is?"
"6." Amane said proudly.
"6??? What the hell?!"
"Hey, hey! It's not my fault that I'm pretty." Amane said.
Sasuke sweatdropped. "And you don't think that she will be suspicious that YOU are going to copy HER techniques?"
"Nah! She's super forgetful! And it's 8 years ago. I doubt that she still remembers it."
"So YOU are the matchmaker now huh?!"
"Uh-huh!" Amane said.
"Okay, thanks! Ja ne." Sasuke said.
"No prob! Sayonara! And goodluck!" Amane said before she hung up.
END OF FLASHBACK
"So that's what happened." Amane finished.
"WHAT ABOUT THE KISS YOU GAVE SASUKE-KUN ON THE BRIDGE!" (On Ch.5) I yelled angrily.
"HAHAHA! Oh that? That was part of the plan!" She said proudly.
FLASHBACK;
Amane was walking towards the bridge. She is finding her bestfriend, Sakura. When she saw Sasuke, she walked in front of him.
"Hey Sasuke! Did you ask her already?" Amane asked.
"Hn"
"And what is that supposed to mean?" Amane asked.
"...yes."
"Good."
"She's coming!" Amane said sniffing the air.
"You can smell her? Where did you learn that? Are you half-dog and half-human?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes I can smell her. I learned it from Kiba. And NO! I am pure human." Amane said.
"What is your plan?" Sasuke asked.
"Can I kiss you?" Amane said.
"Why?" Sasuke asked, eyes wide.
"So she will be jealous."
"Fine! But not on the LIPS! Only on the cheek." Sasuke said.
"Ugh! As if I want to kiss you!" Amane muttered. Sasuke heard it and glared at her.
"She's here!" She hissed at Sasuke. "Don't look at her. Pretend that we didn't notice her presence."
Amane kissed Sasuke on the cheek quickly and waved at him and walked away.
END OF FLASHBACK
"Oh my gosh! Sakura! I'm very sorry if I hurt you! Please forgive me!" Amane cried anime tears and kneeled in front of me.
"I forgive you. But if you kiss him on the lips, I swear I will bury your body under the sand, ALIVE." I warned.
"O-Okay." Amane stuttered nervously.
"Oh my gosh! The letter!" I took the letter and began to read it. I gasped. It is for ME from HIM! (This love letter is edited. This is not the love letter that Sakura made for him.)
Dear Sakura,
I'm sorry for being a bastard to you at first. You know why I'm acting like that, right? That time, I was only thinking about avenging the clan and killing Itachi. But now, I'm not scared of saying "I love you, Sakura" anymore. I love you, Haruno Sakura.
Love, Sasuke.
P.S. - Meet me at the park, NOW! If you don't. . . Still, I won't leave until you show up.
"EEEEEEEEEEKKK!" I shrieked. My face is very red. As in RED!
"HAHAHA!" Amane is rolling on the floor laughing so hard. "THE LOOK ON YOUR FACE! HAHA! SO RED!"
"Stop laughing, Amane-chan. Help me pick something to wear."
"Haha! Okay!"
END OF POV
NORMAL POV
(TIMESKIP)
At the park;
Sasuke is sitting on a bench. Rubbing his hands together to remove his nervousness. He is wearing light blue polo shirt with two buttons unbuttoned, black faded jeans, and black converse.
"SASUKE-KUN!"
He looked at the direction of the voice. His eyes widened, jaws dropped, and he is holding his nose to prevent nosebleed. It's Sakura. Wearing a light pink tube top with glitters and black ruffled skirt that reaches 3 inches above her knees. Her hair was curled and she has light make-up on. She's already beautiful, anyway. But now, she looks HOT! -in Sasuke's opinion.
Sakura walked towards the bench and sat down beside him.
"Uh." Sakura said nervously.
"I love you." Sasuke said not looking at her.
"W-wha?" Sakura didn't expect to hear it from him. She knows he wrote it in the love letter, but when it comes out from his lips it sounds different.
"Marry me, Sakura." Sasuke said.
Sakura glared. "Is that a question or an order?"
"Duh! It's called straight to the point, Sakura! I thought you like guys who are straight to the point." Sasuke teased.
She blushed. "I'm just kidding that time, Sasuke-kun, but," she stopped. "I will marry you, Uchiha Sasuke." Sakura said looking at him.
Sasuke looked at her in the eyes. He leaned closer and Sakura did the same.

'SNAP' 'SNAP' 'FLASH'
"CONGRATULATIONS! SASUKE-TEME!" Naruto shouted. Then all of the Rookie 9 and Team Gai with Amane who is smirking and has her arms in front of her chest, popped out from the bush with cameras and cellphones in hand. (except Sasuke and Sakura, of course.)
"OH MY YOUTHFUL CHERRY BLOSSOM! GAI-SENSEI, I'M SORRY I DIDN'T FULFILLED MY YOUTHFUL PROMISE. I SHALL DO 1000 LAPS, 1000 PUSH-UPS AND 1000 SIT-UPS!" Lee cried anime tears.
"LEE!"
"GAI-SENSEI!"
"LEE!"
"GAI-SENS-"
"SHUT UP!!!" They all yelled except Gai and Lee who are now hugging each other and cryin anime tears. They sweatdropped.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE ALL OF YOU DOING HERE?" Sasuke shouted irritated.
"SPYING! NOW KISS!" They all shouted.
Sasuke and Sakura sweatdropped.
They leaned closer to each other and kissed.
"WOOOOOHOOOO!" They all cheered. And confetties and balloons came from the sky and poured down on them. (Weird?)
Sasuke hugged Sakura and whispered something to her ear.
"Congratulations, Sakura Uchiha."
