Sakura P.O.V
So maybe I cowered out of telling Sasuke about the whole Sai thing and how I just wanted us to be together. But, No worry my dear friends, I shall tell him today at lunch!
'Hmm… Where have I heard that before? Oh yeah, When you made up your little "Evil" Plan… Wow so evil, you can't even get past number 1?' Inner Sakura decided to interrupt my little fantasy.
'I will tell him no matter what, even if the whole school is listening!' I debated childishly as I walked to school. When I got to school, I saw Azuko sitting on a wall reading a book. I was about to go up to her and greet her when suddenly I felt arms wrap themselves around my waist.
"Miss me Sakura?" The voice I dreaded to hear. How could I have forgotten?! I forced a smile turning around.
"I'm sure you already know the answer to that question, Sai" I said taking his arms away from my waist.
"Hey Sakura! Sai!" I saw Azuko running up to us, smiling. She knows him? Sai smiled at her greeting her back.

By lunch time, I noticed Sasuke wasn't in. I frowned. And was it just me or were Sai and Azuko really getting along? Oh well, it just worked out better for me. Ever since this morning Azuko and Sai had refused to leave me alone. It was just kind of getting annoying. I sighed and stood up.
"I'll be right back" I said to them, hoping they wouldn't ask me anything but Karma hated me.
"Where are you going?" Sai asked.
"I have to go to Hinata and ask her something about our math's homework" I said putting on a fake smile. I was so glad none of them were in my math's class. Sai just nodded. I quickly went out of the cafeteria letting out a sigh of relief. Then something hit me. Sasuke probably wasn't in because he was sick! He had taken off his jacket for Azuko that day and so was left in nothing but a t-shirt in lashing rain. Then I decided it. I'm going to go and visit him and tell him how I feel!
'When he's sick?'
'Uhh……….yeah..?"
'That wasn't my idea of the whole telling him. You should wait until he gets better'
'I'll visit him anyway! I can't go today afterschool, I promised pig I'd go to the mall with her. Afterschool tomorrow if he's not in!'
With that decided, I went up to Hinata, who was with Naruto surprisingly and talked to her for the rest of lunch.

Sai P.O.V
She actually believed me when I told her I was going to go away for a week because of some trip my parents planned? She must be feeling off these days. I sat down on a chair looking at the crimpled piece of paper. Re-reading it over for what felt a thousand times.
Uchiha Sakura
Uchiha Sakura
Uchiha Sakura?!?
She wanted that arrogant bastard? And she thought I would just go to that Azuko girl. I have to do something about this. Funny, I was coming "Back" a day early to "surprise" her and she's acting all day-dreamy and suddenly this falls out of her bag? Did she think of me as stupid?! I would have found out even if I didn't find this piece of paper. I growled angrily but then smiled.
I had confronted Azuko about this problem.

"So she expects me to go to you so that you're going to leave her alone and so she can have my Sasuke-kun all to herself?!"
"Exactly"
"What a selfish bitch! What are you going to do about this problem! I can see Sasuke giving me hints that he's in love with me! She's trying to steal him from me!"
-Narrowed eyes-
"Watch how you talk about Sakura. It's simple what I'm going to do. Get rid of the Uchiha. Of course you can have him once Sakura's over him"
"And how are we going to do this?"
"It's simple…"
-Whispers-
"Brilliant"

So maybe I lied to that Azuko girl but she was going to try and keep Sakura away from Sasuke, might as well let her believe what she wants.
I told her Sakura was going to be beat up and I would save her then she would forget about Sasuke and then Sasuke would be all hers. HA I can't believe she believed that.
I'm going to deal with Sasuke myself. I heard his father wants him to go and take over the business soon. And what comes with every business is marriage. And I heard that Ino's father is also looking for someone to marry her daughter for the same reason. Then Sakura will have no one but me to come crawling to.
I smirked. Perfect.

Sasuke P.O.V
Even if I'm sick my father was still going on and on about what was the point of even bothering to finish this year when I could go straight into the business. I sighed for what felt like the 10th time this day. Maybe I should just agree to shut him up.
"… and what happens if I suddenly go ill? Itachi certainly made it clear he wont take the business and then what will happen to Uchiha corp.?.." He ranted and ranted.
"Fine..." I muttered.
".. And then some evil guy will come and change everything- wait, fine?" My father said cautiously. I rolled my eyes at his child like behavior.
"Yes. Fine." I said a little louder. My father smirked in delight.
"Good. I think its best you go as soon as you get better" With that said he left the room to leave me in my thoughts.
'It's like he knew he was really annoying...' I thought randomly.
'Hey! You idiot! You can't just leave Sakura like that!'
'Who the hell are you?'
'I'm Inner you! But that's enough about me! What'll happen to Sakura?'
'I seriously must be going insane.'
'Tell her you love her or you'll regret it for the rest of your emo life'
'Annoying' And I shut that little annoying voice out of my head. Inner me? What the hell? And what was this all about Sakura? I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose. Life sucks when you're an Uchiha.

Sakura P.O.V
I stood in front of the huge gates almost cowardly. Maybe this was a bad idea. Before I could ring the doorbell or anything, a butler looking guy came running out to me.
"Are you lost ma'am? You seem to be standing there for quite some time." He asked me. I blushed in embarrassment.
"A-Actually, Uhm I was looking for Sasuke Uchiha…?" I asked unsurely. The butler eyed me.
"What's you're name?" He asked.
"Uhm..." What the hell is this got to do with anything? But I answered none the less. "Sakura Haruno"
"Follow me" he said and started walking off as I stalked after him. After a lot of twists and turns and super sized halls, he stood in front of a room. He turned to me.
"Wait here" He said and went inside. I waited a few minutes before he came back out.
"You may go in" he said and walked off. I looked at him retreat and back at the door unsurely. I slowly opened the door, peeking in. I saw a huge ass room. Everything was navy and cream. And there sat Sasuke in his bed, looking like shit. All pale with bags under his eyes.
"Whoa, you look like shit" It accidently slipped out. He raised an eyebrow.
"Well aren't you the nicest person around" He said sarcastically. I just smiled and walked up to his bed and stood there.
…..
……..
Awkward.
I coughed.
"So… You feeling OK?" I asked fidgeting. He smirked.
"What do you think?" He asked putting his head to the side a little. I giggled and shrugged.
"Sasuke, I wanted to tell you something…" Right now I felt like running 5,000 miles away from here. But I couldn't leave knowing that he didn't know. "I wanted to tell you that…" I knew I was stalling but I didn't care. I looked at his curious face. I took a deep breath. "That Sai is forcing me to be with him and that I-I… Uhm I-"I forced out the first bit really fast but slowed down. Then I was interrupted. A butler came in, as I let out a breath. Sasuke looked a bit surprised.
"Master Sasuke, You're father wishes to speak to you immediately." The butler said.
"Of course" Sasuke replied and then turned to me. "You were saying?" He asked looking concerned. So now he knew one part. Maybe that was enough for now.
"Uh-uh..." I couldn't say it now. "It's nothing, never mind. That's all. I'll see you in school tomorrow, Bye!" I said quickly and waved while walking out the room not giving him time to respond.
"Goodbye" he said just as I closed the door to his room. I furrowed my eyebrows and ran out of the mansion as fast as my legs could carry me. I was so damn close. So close. But then that stupid butler had to come in and ruin everything. I ran a hand through my hair, frustrated.
'Oh well some other time....' I thought to myself as I walked back to my house.
'If there is another time….' I heard my inner say but I ignored it as nothing.

I ran and ran through the dark woods. I didn't seem to know where exactly I was running. I felt as if I was running from someone. I glanced back and saw a dark shadow after me. I ran faster. I reached a cliff. On the other side I saw a person with dark hair and dark eyes that seemed so familiar. The figure turned away and walked away. I tried to jump the cliff to get to it. But then I was falling and falling into a pit of darkness. Suddenly the shadow that had been following me appeared out of nowhere.
"You're not getting out of this mess so easily Sakura-chan"
I shook my head a number of time's whispering no.

I woke up in cold sweat and looked over at the clock that blinked 3:34 AM. What a weird dream. I laid down trying to get some sleep but I couldn't. I had a gut feeling something was going to go very wrong. Stupid gut feelings…
So watchu think?Is it getting boring? _ I hope not.. I know its not good but I just cant seem to think of anything! __ how will I get the whole evil Sai and Azuko thing started? =( I think the Sai plan I put in there wasn't great -.-
Anyhoo R&R Please.
