I had to admit, Sasuke's plan was brilliant. How he came up with it so quickly, I'll never know, some things should remain a mystery I suppose. Part of the plan was having all our friends included and by all I mean ALL… that meant Naruto too. We planned to meet up in our home room after classes ended. Once everyone was together we sat Naruto down and explained everything to him. As of now he was still in utter shock. If it weren't for the situation I would be dying from laughter.
"Wait so" Naruto paused "Ren's a girl, and everyone knew this but ME?" he jumped up kicking a few tables. "WHY WOULD YOU HIDE THIS FROM ME? YOU JERKS, teme you JACKASS"
"Naruto, calm down…I didn't mean for it to turn out this way…I swear I didn't tell them willingly.. besides Ino, she already knew from the beginning. Everyone found out on their own" I confessed, trying to calm down the hyper active blonde. Thinking about it, I suppose I wasn't very good at hiding my gender WHUT? It's harder than it looks.
"Ah…well if that's the case I'll forgive you then, Re-Sakura." Suddenly a look of realization appeared on his face. "So…does this mean…you don't have boobitis?" everyone in the room facepalmed.
"N-No Naruto, I don't have…. That…" I still couldn't believe SASUKE of all people would come up with such a weird disease, what I found more shocking was that Naruto actually believed it. I mean sure, he wasn't the smartest guy around.. but still.
"SO, this means on the day I carried you to class I felt your boobs-boobs AWESO-OW" Naruto was cut off by a punch in the gut from Sasuke.
"Enough of that dobe .."
"Geez you didn't have to go that far" I sighed watching Naruto fall to the floor in pain. Hinata instantly ran to his side, her eyes full of worry. "N-N-Naruto, are you okay?"
"Gah"
"He'll live Hina, now on to more important things. Why'd you tell us to meet you here? you went as far as to get me to walk here from MY school, so there better be a good reason" Ino grumbled, taking a seat on top of one of the desks.
"Even MORE importantly, why am I in the same room as HIM?" Sai spoke up, his evil glare focused on Shikamaru who was already passed out.
"All of you shut up and listen" Sasuke growled, rubbing his temples slowly. He was probably getting a headache from all the noise. "This is important, there can't be any screw ups. We only have a few weeks to get things ready. If you fail to listen and something goes wrong, I'll kill you"
Wow, I think this is the first time I've ever seen him talk this much. It was kinda weird and scary in a way.
"Alright, alright…sir bossy pants, start talking" Ino snarled.
"Here's what we're going to do"
…
I walked down the all too familiar street, getting closer and closer to my destination, the Uchiha Mansion.
"Don't screw up"
Shut up, I won't.
"You say that, but you probably will"
I WON'T, GOD DAMMIT.
"Act natural or he'll know something's up"
I KNOW, inner. Why don't you ever have faith in me?
"Why don't you ever have faith in yourself?"
Touche.
"Everyone's counting on you, got it?...slip up and it's all over"
Why are you doing this to me?
"Why are you doing this to yourself?"
Touche…AGAIN.
"Stop standing there and knock on the door"
What?...OH.
Somehow without me realizing it, I was at the Uchiha's front door. Maybe I should stop talking to myself and start noticing my surroundings a bit more. PSH like that's ever gonna happen, I'm Sakura for heaven's sake.
I hesitated for a few seconds before knocking three times on the massive door. Within about ten seconds the doors swung open, a short and slightly chubby maid smiled widely at me. "Well if it isn't Miss Haruno, come in come in. What brings you here?"
"I ah" I ran a hand through my hair nervously. ..Why was I having second thoughts now?
"I'm here to see Itachi, is he home?"
The maids light blue eyes shun brightly. "Visiting your fiancé, how sweet. Why yes he's here, he's just in his study, shall I take you there?"
"Uhm, if it's not too much trouble" I wanna go home, Sasuke….this plan of yours better work or I'll cut your eyes out then blend them in a blender with bananas and strawberries. Afterwards I'll give the mixture to some orphans, they'll think I'm a saint for bringing them such a delicious smoothie, but in reality they're really drinking an Uchiha eyeball smoothie MWHAHAHA. THEN while that blasted Sasuke is blind I'll SMASH HIM WITH A HAMMER it's BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT.
"Miss..Haruno are you coming?"
"Eh? OH right. I just got lost in thought, sorry"
"Hehe, that's so cute, anyways this way"
I followed the maid up the huge staircase, ending up in front of a closed door. The Maid knocked a couple times then spoke "Master Uchiha, your fiancé Miss Haruno is here to see you"
We waited a few minutes until he replied. "Alright, come in Sakura"
Oh geez, I didn't want to go in. I wanted to go home, I wanted to go back to my normal life…if only I had a time machine, to stop myself from making all these crazy mistakes.
"I'll leave you two alone" The maid giggled before zooming off. How could someone that small and chubby run off so fast?
I inhaled then exhaled, with all the courage I had, I opened the door.
Itachi greeted me with a pleasant smile. "I'm surprised you came to visit, please have a seat don't be shy"
I timidly entered the room "Uhm, well I just needed to see you"
Itachi almost looked like he was surprised. "Needed to see me? What for?"
"I…I came here to apologize"
He didn't reply, though from the way he was looking at me I could tell he wanted me to continue talking. "I really AM, excited to marry you. It's just….I was nervous, you know? I didn't know what it would be like to get married this young, but I realized that you'd be a perfect husband. I do have feelings for you, I thought I l-liked Sasuke but it turns out I don't." It was nearly impossible for me to finish this sentence "It's you I've always been interested in, Itachi..no…..my darling fiancé. I can't wait any longer. Please, let's not wait a whole month to marry"
Ugh, ew YUCK I hate this, that's the most disgusting thing I've ever said.
Itachi was obviously shocked with my confession. Though his expression lasted only a few seconds, his mouth curled into a small smile. "I'm so glad to hear that, but why the rush?..a month isn't that long is it not?"
"F-For me it is, please can't we marry…in two weeks?"
"Two weeks?"
"Y-Yes, I can't wait any longer than that"
He let out a chuckle. "Alright, if that's what you want"
"Oh my darling, thank you. It'll truly be a joyful day"
"Oh I'm sure it will be, Sakura.
YES, mission complete. Looks like things are off to a good start.
BOOM chappy end.
Hope you enjoyed it, thank you for reading and leaving your wonderful reviews, you're too kind.
A dreaded secret will probably end after two more chapters. :]
