She has a heart of gold. He is heartless. She's popular and the centre of attention. He's feared by everyone in school, well besides his closest friends. He values no one besides himself. She values music over everyone. They are polar opposites, but as the saying goes, opposites attract.

Sakura's POV

I sat there listening to Ino rant yet again about a blind date her mother set up for her as she applied her make up getting ready for said date. Hinata was playing with my mid back pink hair and she had styled it in five different ways in the past hour while Ten-Ten was laying lazily on my bed playing a game on her phone.

"She just doesn't know when to quit it!" Ino said in a sigh. She had only been going on these dates to please her mom but she was honestly getting fed up cause every guy she set her up with was terrible and not even her type. Anyone who wasn't her beloved Sasuke-kun wasn't good enough for her. To put it quite simple, she was deeply in love with him but he never really noticed her like that but that didn't stop Ino from trying to get his attention.

"Hey maybe this time around it won't be so bad" Hinata said trying to make her feel better as she put up my hair into the original messy bun it was in before she played with it. I guess she was now out of ideas as to what to do with it. Hinata is really sweet by nature, and highly optimistic. Honestly without her, I doubt we would have ever done all the things we've done and achieved all that we have achieved. She was our rock. Hina and I met at a masquerade party I was forced to attend by my best friend Naruto because he didn't have a date. His father, Minato, is a very close family friend of ours. Anyways I bumped into Hinata going into the restroom and we just hit it off. She got more confident. She used to stutter heavily, but that has since changed and only happens when a certain blonde is around.

"Yeah, what Hinata said" Ten-Ten added on without even looking in Ino's direction, totally engrossed in the game she was playing. Ten-Ten was the tomboy of the group. She wasn't extremely boyish neither was she girlish. She was right in between. She had a no bullshit policy and spoke the truth despite the situation but also knew when a little white lie was necessary. We had actually met at a skate park when we were kids. I was just the starting to learn how to skate and she, well, she was already good enough and so she basically took me under her wing and we have been best friends ever since.

"Yeah, I suppose you might be right, plus I gave her an earful about it so maybe this time she'll get it right" Ino said laughing and got up to get dressed. We had worked hard as a group to prepare her a stunning outfit since this was going to be her final last blind date. She and her mother had come to an agreement that this would be the last date.

She came out wearing a long blue sparkly strapless dress with a right slit that starts from her mid-thigh and blue heels to match. She had on gold earrings, a stunning pearl necklace Hinata had gotten for her as a birthday gift and a gold Metalica wrist watch I got for her paired with a black Prada bag Ten-Ten got for her. She looked absolutely stunning!

"Well, what do you think?" Ino asked us nervously. We all just smiled at her like idiots. Ino was beautiful no doubt about it but in this moment, she was gorgeous with her silky soft blonde her up in her usual ponytail, stunning make up and perfect pink lips.

"You look absolutely stunning!" we all said in unison and squealed as we got up to hug her being sure not to ruin her make up and well put outfit.

"You're going to knock whoever this man is off his feet" Hinata said still smiling "And if he's gross and disgusting, at least you'll go out there looking absolutely sexy" Ten-Ten added on smiling as well

"You might even meet prince charming in the process and ditch the date" I finished off smiling and we all laughed.

I sighed happily and looked at Ino, "seriously though, you look amazing and any man would be lucky to have you as his own. Go get them tiger!" I said as she walked up to me and gave me a long hug "Thank you Saku, I love you" she said while we were in each other's embrace.

"I love you too" I responded. Ino and I had known each other for the longest before the others came into the picture, so naturally our opinion of the other mattered a whole lot. We have been there for each other through it all, nothing has ever broken us apart even when the others joined us. We stayed solid but that would soon be tested.

After a while Ino left for her blind date leaving Hina, Ten and I. We were going to wait for her to return from her dinner date with the mystery man.

"I know we are waiting for Ino to be done with her free meal but that doesn't mean we can't eat or anything" I said stretching while the girls laughed and joined me.

"Yeah, I'm hungry too. I would kill for some crab cakes, maybe even ramen noodles" Ten-Ten said sighing

"Well, we obviously don't want to cook despite having a full fridge in Sakura's house. Why don't we go by that ramen store that's nearby?" Hina suggested. Ten and I gave her knowing looks and she blushed lightly. It was obvious to us that she was hoping to bump into Naruto there. She has had a huge crush on him since I introduced them to each other at the masquerade but she has always been scared to make a move. Naruto as well felt the same but felt there was no way someone as rich and popular as Hinata would look his way. He was dead ass convinced she actually didn't like him because she'd always run whenever she saw him coming but only because she was nervous.

"Alright, I'll call Naruto and tell him to save us seats" I said smirking in Hinata's direction. At the mere mention of his name, she turned red and dashed into the bathroom which caused Ten and I to laugh.

"It's so cute how they both like each other and are oblivious to that fact" Ten said laughing and I nodded in agreement laughing along with her as I picked up my phone to let Naruto know the plan. As soon as I hung up the phone Hina came out the bathroom looking all polished up. Ten and I just starred at her in awe. She hadn't done much to her outfit but she looked gorgeous. She had on a purple tennis skirt, white belly tank top and accessorized with a cute fox pendant chain she bought the other day at the mall and some gold bracelets paired with her white sneakers. She left her mid back length hair hanging loose in her usual style.

"I'm going to tell him today" she said, her eyes showing her determination. Ten and I smiled at her encouragingly. "Go, get your man sis!" we shouted in unison which made Hina smile.

Ten and I didn't bother changing our outfits, we were just going out for ramen. I was dressed in baggy blue jeans and black crop top with the words 'What?" written in white on it plus a pair of black chucks and a black purse with all my essentials in it. Ten had a similar outfit except her jeans were ripped and her top was green with no writings on it. Her hair was up in her usual twin space buns and had some hairs loose in the front to shape her face.

Before leaving I texted Ino where to meet us should her date end while we were still out. We got into my car and hyped Hina the whole way. This evening was turning out to be more fun than how it started off.
