Chapter Title: Pretty in pink or Perfect in Black
"Come on, Sakura! Are we there yet? I remember that I have to cook dinner for my brother"
"You hate your brother."
Sasuke cursed under his breath as he blindly tried to sense the surrounding around him with Sakura pushing him in a shopping cart (A/n: you know those supermarket kind of trolleys or carts) across the mall, since he doesn't want to move an inch or see anything at all. A frustrated and fuming Sakura roared angrily, as she brought her fist down his head, blackening him out with enough time to blindfold him and tie a rope around his feet and hands then dumping him into the shopping cart. (A/n: Just imagine Sasuke being pushed around the mall like a baby in a pram by his mommy –Sakura! ^^)
"Shut up, Sasuke-CHAN!" snarled Sakura "or must I stuff a pacifier into your mouth too?"
"Okay, I will just shut up…"
"We are here~" cooed Sakura, Sasuke noticed a sudden change in the tone of her voice, it sound much more happier and scarier…
"Uh-oh…" he mumbled under his breath as he felt the blindfold pulled away, he blinked his eyes to get used to the amount of light streaming into his onyx pupils before he saw the most ugliest signboard ever… "Pretty in Pink?" he wondered out
"Hai~ Welcome to my favourite store ever – Pretty in Pink!" as Sakura clasped her hand together in front of her chest and said it with so much emotion that Sasuke swore that he saw sprinkle of glitters around her and she stare at the Shop's name. "Come one, Sasuke-kun!!" With that Sakura pushed him into the store.
"Gosh, I must died and gone to a pink hell." Cried Sasuke, as everything in the shop was Pink in colour. The lightings, the floors, the clothes, the make-ups and even the shop owner were in totally pink!
"Sakura-chan~" came the shop owner, an effeminate guy (A/n: gay/ cross-dresser? I don't know the term) wearing a super mini tiny hot pink shirt and skirt with two pink pigtails tailing behind him, came toward them and gave a peck on the forehead to her favourite customer.
"Oh, Pinko-san!"
"It been like three days since you last came here."
"Sorry ne, Pinko-san. I was busy with missions, you know how missions are…" said Sakura as she wave one hand
"Hai, Hai… missions are really terrible! How they could ruin some girls' hairdo, clothes and even oh the horror- breaking a nail!" Pinko began to fake a little and began checking his nails. "So do my favourite customer need help again?"
"Hai, Sakura-chan will always need Pinko-san help for Pinko-san is best when it comes to fashion!" said Sakura as Pinko started beaming tears in his eyes, he opened his arm and beckoned for the pinked-hair to come and give him a hug "Oh, Sakura-chan, you are the best!" As they pulled away from each other, Pinko stared at Sasuke who was mumbling about crazy pink people.
"Who is cutie-pie here, Sakura-chan?" asked Pinko as he leaned closer toward to Sasuke to examine him closer.
"Oh, he is Uchiha Sasuke, my team mate and he is the one who going to need your help." Said Sakura as she shifted her attention to a really cute pink blouse.
"Uchiha?"
"Yeah, yeah, Uchiha, the clan that was wiped out in a tragedy-" mumbled Sasuke before Pinko putted a lean finger on his lip to silent the raven-haired.
"I didn't asked about that…Uchiha…hmm…Are you somehow related to Uchiha Itachi?" asked Pinko still pondering as he pinched Sasuke's cheek (the face)
"Unfortunately, yes…" said Sasuke as he felt his cheek being pinched and stretched "Hmm…Pinko-san, do you mind? It hurts…"
Pinko immediately let go and put a hand on his chest "Sorry…Wow, I can't believe that I actually meeting my favourite customer's brother face-to-face!" gushed Pinko as he jumped joyfully.
"Favourite customer?" echoed both Sakura and Sasuke.
"Yap, he is my favourite customer beside Sakura-chan for he always coming here at least once a week to buy moi specially designed clothes for him. If you must know, he too, owned a boutique. I can't quite remember the name…"
Sasuke's right eyebrow started twitching; the brother he longed to kill is a favourite customer of this pink drag queen? Just then, he started imagine…Itachi in a hot combat with some highly skilled Jounins or Anbu and his dear brother was fighting in a tight pink leather suit or worse still, a pink Barbie doll dress!! He half cringed and laughed at the sight… Oh boy, he can't wait to see that happened.
"So Sakura you were saying that Itachi-chan's little brother need my help. What kind of help were you talking about."
Sakura quickly put back the pink summer dress and answered " Pinko-san, the Jounin's prom is less in a week time and Sasuke-kun here need a nice dress for it. I too, need a dress for it!!"
"My oh my… I guess I am going to be busy this whole week! Oro…Why does Sasuke-kun need a dress too? He is following like his dear aniki to be beautiful cross-dresser?"
"NO!!"
"Wow, what's a response…Let me closed the shop first then I can personally attend to the two of you before one of my darlings turned up later on." Pinko waltzed over to the door and placed the 'Sorry darlings, We're closed' signed before turning his attentions on the two teenagers.
"Well, Let's start cracking!" Pinko clapped his hands together and dragged over to the changing room area, then disappearing and appearing minutes later to push out a vast collection of prom dresses in pink collection.
"Oh my gosh!! Cried the both of them, Sasuke in agony and Sakura in bliss.
"Isn't this every girls' dream?" squealed Pinko as he happily jumped up and down like a silly crazy high school girl in her dream boutique of her own then again he was silly and crazy, this is his boutique and of course, not a high school girl. "Let's begin with Sasuke-kun first!!" Pinko skipped toward the stony boy and grabbed him, leading toward the collection. " Now choose which do you prefer…"
"None…"
"What? I beg your pardon?"
"I said 'None'"
"WHAT!!!" shrieked Pinko as he slapped both hands to his cheek "Nobody even said 'None' to me before!!"
"Then I will be the first."
"Gosh!" cried Pinko as he collapsed to the ground; a spotlight out of nowhere trained on him "My life is ruined! In my so much years existence on Earth and in this business of fashion, no one ever said 'None' to me before. What did I do in my past life to deserve this?" bawled Pinko as Sakura came forward to comfort the effeminate man.
"Hush, Hush, Pinko-san, you still have Sakura-chan as your favourite customer…" hushed Sakura as she rubbed soothing little circle of her favourite fashion designer then she shook up and gave a death glare to Sasuke and started cracking her knuckles "Well…well…Sasuke-kun, why must you hurt poor Pinko-san's feelings? He depressed and you better be sorry cause if you are none then I am going to make you sorry."
"I am sorry!! I am really sorry!!" cried Sasuke on his knees as he begged for mercy, he knew how hard Sakura punches someone whenever she is mad and it is painful with a capital 'P'. "I will promise I will listen to you and Pinko-san and be a good boy, trying all the beautiful pink dress made by wonderful and almighty Pinko-san!!"
"Ooh…Sasuke-kun" cooed Pinko-san as he happily embraced the dark-haired boy tightly.
"Pinnkoo-san!! I caan'tt…brreatthhh!!" cried Sasuke.
"Gomen! Gomen! So which do you want to try first?"
Sasuke closed his eyes and absently pointed at one which turned out to be Victorian dress with lots of ribbons and frilly laces, he groaned when he realized that he had to try that on.
"Must I really try it?"
"Hai" chorused the two haired people. (A/n: I can't say girls coz Pinko is a guy!!)
"Do I really, really have to??"
"Hai!" answered Pinko as he happily grabbed Sasuke by the shoulder and dragged him off into the dressing room together with the dress. There were a lot of screaming and loud protest before there was some crashing and ripping before finally before a tired-looking Pinko with a ripped-blouse stood beside Sasuke in the pink Victorian dress, in front of a starry eyes Sakura.
"Ooh, Sasuke-kun!! I have always been dreaming of the day when I could finally see you in a dress!!"
"A stupid dress that feel so uncomfortable, with lots of ribbons and laces…" grumbled Sasuke as he fanned the skirt around, trying to see where his feet had disappeared to.
"You know what, Sasuke-kun?" said Sakura as she leaned on both arms, which were placed, on her knees.
"What?"
"You look ugly in a dress."
"Really, wow, thank you. I will take that as a compliment so why don't we just give up this idea and let me go to the prom as myself." Said Sasuke as he went back into the dressing room to change out of the dress and appeared within minutes before a scowling Sakura.
"Remember, Sasuke-kun. You lost to Naruto and to better pay for it."
"…"
"This won't do." With that Sakura went over to Sasuke and kick him hard in that area, using the opportunity to tie him up again and dumping him into the cart. With a wave and smile "Sorry, Pinko-san, I have something to do first and I will be back in a few days!"
"No problem, honey. Pinko will always have time for you."
"Bye!"
"Take care!!"
Sakura soon zoomed across the mall with a whining Sasuke in the cart and almost crashed into Kakashi sensei and a lady.
"Kakashi sensei!" greeted Sakura happily as the couple took their attention off a very expensive Kimono gown to see their pupils. One happily holding on the shopping cart and one scowling away in the shopping cart, all tied and gagged up.
"Sakura, what do you think you are doing?" asked Kakashi as he stared in amusement at his students.
"I bring Sasuke for a ride around the mall." It was partly true and partly a lie for Sakura wants to surprise Kakashi on the Prom night itself.
"Oh." Said Kakashi as he scratched his head with one hand, with the other was wrapped around the shoulder of a beautiful lady, wearing a blue kimono with pink Sakura prints on it. Sakura felt that the lady could have be more beautiful if not for the horizon scar across the bridge of her nose.
"Ne. Kakashi, I didn't know you got a girlfriend."
"Hey, I maybe a teacher but I am still a human and I need love." To show it, Kakashi leaned over to place a kiss on the blushing lady's cheek "Kakashi" she scolded him. Sakura giggled happily at the affection between the both of them and excused herself, not wanting to spoil the affections of the couple. "Kakashi-sensei, I have to go! Enjoy yourself with Iruka-sensei." With that she giggled happily as she pushed the trolley away, leaving a wide-eye couple staring after her.
"*HmmmmHmmm?" asked Sasuke through the gag. (* How did you know?)
"The only person to have such a scar across his or her face in the whole of Konoha is only Iruka-sensei. Beside if you look closer, you could see a dolphin pendant around Kakashi's neck and a pendant of scarecrow around Iruka's neck." Explained Sakura as she turned the trolley around a bend and zoomed even faster to the shop ahead. ' Beauty Makeover!' the sign read, as they got nearer.
"Sakura, I hope you are not going to do what I think you are going to do…"
"Muahahaha!! You are right! Start to be afraid! Be very afraid!" she then started laughing menacingly as she continued pushing Sasuke into the Beauty centre.
&*&*&
The clients and employees waiting at the lounge of 'Beauty Makeover' got the shock of their life when a teenager pink-haired girl dashed to the reception counter with a teenage boy in a trolley and demand a makeover for the boy.
"I want a makeover for Sasuke-kun and want it now!!" she roared as she brought a fist down the table, a brave make-up artist came up to her and tapped her on the shoulder. "Ano. I afraid he can't have a makeover yet. After all, you guys must be 25 and above to have a makeover and beside I don't think you guys can afford the service here."
"What do you mean I can't afford?!" Sakura roared angrily at the poor brave lady and took out her wallet and showing the amount of cards in the wallet "I got all kind of cards, you named it and you got it!"
"Wahh!!" went all those presence in the room, with wide saucer-eyes.
"Err…" sweat-dropped the maker-up artist. "But you guys are still underage."
"Baka!!" cursed Sakura as she pushed Sasuke out of the centre and dashed across the mall and out of it, ignoring the security guards' cries that she couldn't bring the cart back.
"Sakura, where are we going now?"
"My home."
"What?"
"My parents and elder sis have gone visiting some relatives in the Wave village and I have the house to my own. It seemed that I have to the makeover myself!" said Sakura as she stepped on the bottom back of the trolley, using it as a skate-scooter and make her way to her house.
"By the way, Sasuke-kun. Do you know how to dance?" asked Sakura as them past the community club where some dance classes was going on.
"No."
*Screech* Sakura braked the trolley and make a U-turn back to the community club "Wait here for me." Said Sakura as she parked the trolley at the bicycle rack and make a way to the one of the class where she heard some Polka music coming from. She happily opened the door to come face to face with a blonde lady who looked so much like Naruto.
"Naruto?"
"Huh?" went the lady as she brushed a hand through silky blonde hair and tugged on her dangling silver cross earring. "May I help you?"
"Hmm…hi, I am here to help my friend to enroll for a dancing class." Said Sakura shyly as her ears scanned the lady outfit from head to toe. Her perfect body shape had Cashew colour turtle-necked clinging to her every curve of her upper body and for lower part was black flowing dancing skirt and she was bare-footed.
"Oh, that's great but what kind of dancing? Ballet? Modern? Polka? Ballroom?"
"I think it should be ballroom dancing."
"Alright."
"Hmm…when can my friend start his first lesson? Cause the Jounin Prom is a week time and it is better than my friend knew how to dance before the prom."
"He can start tomorrow, early in the morning. It would be a private session if he doesn't mind." Smiled the lady before she interrupted by some old folk to hurry up. "I better get going, Sak- I mean Miss." With that the blonde lady slammed the door in Sakura's face.
"What was all that about?" she mumbled angrily to herself as she made her way toward Sasuke. "Come on, Kid. Let's go."
"Don't call me kid!"
"Now, now, it is not nice to be rude." Smiled Sakura as she continued to push Sasuke toward her house and toward his doom.

A/n: Hee… I got it done!! Sorry, I can't make Sasuke spent more time in trying more dress, as I think that he wouldn't really look so nice if he was going to dress up without looking feminine. ^^ But don't worry, I will be sure to torture the hair out of Sasuke in the next chapter. I can't believe I am doing four fics at the same time and my fingers are about to break.
