"Don't get me wrong, our relationship was fun, but all good things come to an end right?" He laughed awkwardly, scratching the back of his neck.

Her green eyes became glassy as realization struck her; she wasn't going to cry over a boy don't be fooled, she just had a thought.

"I am sorry Sakura," he sighed, snapping her out of her dreamy state, "Someone just kinda struck me and I can't lead you on, please don't take it the wrong way."

"Oh, no, I appreciate you being honest with me Kiba," she said straightening her skirt, "I had fun, thank you for that. I hope you get whoever this girl is."

He grinned, gave her a quick friendly embrace and left the scene. Sakura didn't mind that all too much, she had many raging thoughts to deal with.

What made Naruto's sister so appealing?

It was wrong to randomly deduce an innocent girl was an undercover guy magnet, especially one who was rumored to intentionally avoid male contact to begin with.

But Sakura had proof.

It all started with a grueling confession to her first love freshman year,

"Sasuke-kun," she breathed, carefully meeting his emotionless onyx eyes, "I have always admired you."

She bit her lip when he remained quiet, and opted to go on. "I really love you."

A sigh was what he responded with, before he tore her apart with just five words.

"I belong to someone else."

He walked away then, and she grudgingly admitted to crying over him more than necessary. She was after all human. She had moved on, but watched him in the sidelines to find out who had smitten him.

And obviously, it would've been the only girl he stared at whenever they were in the same room. Sasuke didn't stare at anyoneother than her, period.

Uzumaki Kushina, Naruto's younger sister.

Sakura was curious; surely she was on par with the redhead beauty? She was just as exotic looking, with her apple green eyes and fluffy cotton candy hair, she was just as smart as her, and even though Kushina was into tennis, Sakura herself was in the volleyball team. So if they were both equal on everything, why didn't she have the male population of the school at her feet they way Kushina had? And shewas completely oblivious to it, making her more appealing.

It was no surprise when she caught Kiba after a week eyeing the redhead Uzumaki.

Sakura had dealt with Yamanaka Ino unintentionally stealing all her male companions through high school, and had broken a few hearts all on her own, but Kushina was an enigma she could not hurdle over. The girl was completely invincible.

The pinkette decided to find out just what made her, her. A quick interview with passing males she was well acquainted with gave her the following input.

"Ah, people really love that long hair of hers," Shikamaru said, yawning a bit. "But she can keep a really good conversation up too."

"She always has everything," Choji said, munching on some cookies. "Like these cookies! She bakes, you know that?"

"Now Sakura, I can not give you an answer," Kakashi chided, before dropping his voice to a whisper "but just between you and me, she is my reading buddy."

"Ne Sakura-chan, what's your sudden interest in Kushina?" Naruto asked.

Sakura pursed her lips; Naruto was definitely not on her list.

"I, I am doing an article of her for the school website! Yup.."

"Ohhhhh I didn't know we had a website!"

"Well bye."

"But-"

She made a mental note as she stormed off to avoid blondes completely.

"Hey Itachi-sensei!" Said person turned, regarding the pinkette with an odd look. She sweat-dropped when she found her hand on his arm and pulled away while clearing her throat awkwardly. "Oh, sorry Itachi-sensei, I just had a question."

The student teacher rose a brow.

"What is Kushina to you?"

Sakura's jaw dropped when she saw his cheeks turn pink, and stood stunned when he muttered a quick 'no comment' before shuffling away.

What was this prowess Uzumaki Kushina had?

Just when the emerald-eyed girl could put more thought into it, another Uchiha bumped into her.

"Sakura."

"Hey Sasuke-kun, what's-" she watched in horror when he snatched her notepad and read her quick scribbles.

"This much people, like Kushina?" He muttered to himself bitterly, before snapping his gaze to her. "Why are you doing this?"

Sakura stood awkwardly, wondering if the article excuse would work on him or not.

"Well?" He pressed on.

"I-"

A finger poked Sakura's shoulder, successfully helping her get away from answering as she turned to smile gratefully at-

"Kushina?!"

Sasuke tensed up next to her instantly as blue eyes blinked.

"Yes, it's me..." she said confused.

"Sorry about that. It's been a long day."

Her blue eyes shifted questioningly to Sasuke, "What's with the glare?"

"Hn." He pushed the notepad roughly to her and stocked off.

Kushina rolled her eyes, and Sakura studied her curiously.

"Kushina?"

"Hmm?"

"Why are you so likeable?"

She roared her laughter, much to Sakura's demise as it called for unwanted attention before the redhead composed herself.

"You want to know my secret in getting boys' attention?"

Sakura's green eyes shone, as an uncertain smile graced her face.

"I simply do not care."

"What? You don't care?"

Blue eyes rolled for the second time. "Sakura, let me break it down for you; boys are always interested in things that aren't interested in them, because they want to understand whythey aren't into them."

"Okay.."

"And in the process, it just becomes a daily habit to converse and interact, in hopes of getting attention from the uninterested thing."

"So you're telling me, you purposely make everyone believe you don't give a shit, and that gets you attention?"

"Yes."

Kushina waved goodbye and walked past an awestrucked pinkette,

The girl was truly invincible.

And evil.

Sakura smiled to herself, and went off to record her findings; this would be juicy stuff for her blog.
