Before I forget…in the previous chapter…can you guess who was the person who saw everything from the kiss and the whatever…if you know, send me an email…I'll be giving the correct answer in the third chapter…and thank you to everyone for all the reviews!
So here's the second chapter….
"SURPRISES"
"Ttititititititirrrrriiiiiiinnnnnnggglalallalala…." (Whatever sound it makes, as long it's an alarm clock! Work with people! Imagine the sound of your alarm clock, okay!)
Haruno Sakura slammed her hand to the nuisance that disturbed her beauty sleep. She stretched her arms and gave a long yawn. She notched her head sideways as she saw blurry images of red and black. Her thoughts wondered and the only thing she could guess was, "A r-red panda?" her eyes squinted a little.
"No. Guess again." A familiar voice replied with a chuckle.
Her eyes opened widely as the voice seemed to have a ring to it. She rubbed her eyes slightly as she peeked over to the now clear image. A blushed crept in her face as she realized that the familiar figure she just called 'A red panda' was actually Gaara! Sabaku no Gaara! The guy who she was in love with and actually had the same feelings towards her…the guy who stole her first kiss…the guy who…is currently staring at her with a stoic expression. "Wait a minute…what the hell is he doing here anyway…not that I'm uncomfortable with it…"
"G-G-Gaara-kun? What are you doing here?" she asked which made his cheeks to turn red.
He cleared his throat and tried to regain his voice. " Well…I received something this morning and I wanted to know if you had it also, so, I came over." He raised his right hand with a paper, wrapped like a tissue roll.
Flashback
Gaara was making his way to the Haruno residence to ask the pink-haired kunoichi out. As he was heading towards her porch, he spotted the famous copy nin and Team 7's sensei, Hatake Kakashi. The silver-haired man dropped a small parcel into her mailbox and grabbed his favorite X-rated orange book from his pouch and disappeared in a poof. Curiosity was the only thing on his head. Curiosity on what may be the contents of the parcel that was to be given to her. So, he ran to her mailbox and grabbed the parcel. He opened it and read the contents. A smirk played on his lips as he closed the scroll. He hurriedly ran to her room not letting go of the scroll.
End of flashback
He handed her the rolled up paper as she grabbed it from him and read it. After a few minutes, she suddenly squealed in delight as she tossed and turned in her bed. Gaara, who already knew the cause of her joy asked her again (as if he didn't know!). "What are you so happy about anyway?" he smirked. She sat in a sitting position, facing him.
"I'm chosen to be in the konoha big brother!" she shrieked
"Really!" "Hah! As if you…I mean we didn't know!" "Well, me too."
"Really, Gaara-kun!" he nodded in assurance as she jumped and hugged him, which of course resulted them to meet the cold, hard floor, Sakura on top of Gaara. "Hehehehe…gomen, Gaara-kun." She smiled while blushing.
"I-I-I-It's okay S-S-Sakura-chan…" he blushed as crimson as her. "Umm…I'll help you prepare your things."
"Okay, Gaara-kun!" she got off him and helped him get up. "You can help me pack my clothes." She walked to her closet as he followed. She grabbed her pink luggage beside her closet and set it on the floor. "You can help me fold my clothes. " She opened her closet and grabbed 21 t-shirts, 18 sleeveless tops, 5 halter tops, 2 coats, 3 pairs of skirts, 2 pairs of shorts, 5 pairs of jeans, 2 pairs of two-pieced swimsuits and 30 pairs of underwear (Damn, that's a lot of clothes! And don't get me started with her shoes and accessories. I rather just mention them when she wears them.). Gaara nearly fainted upon seeing the large pile of clothes.
you know I think this would take long so…I'll just skip to where she's done packing
"Yosh! Let's go, Gaara-kun!" she raised her fists in the air while Gaara chuckled at her enthusiasm.

Downstairs….
Gaara grabbed Sakura's slender hand in his calloused ones which made her even redder than usual and opened the door. As the door swung open, Gaara began to twitch upon seeing his so-called rivals.
"Ohayou, Sakura-ccccccccccchhhhhhhhaaaannnnnnnn!" Naruto hugged his pink-haired friend tightly as she return the hug happily. He let go of her and his eyes widened upon seeing the kazekage heir. IN HER HOUSE! HOLDING HANDS! He couldn't believe his eyes. Haruno Sakura, his team mate, crush and friend is with the cold-hearted and silent Sabaku no Gaara! (Hey! Hey! Hey! I'm not insulting my beloved Gaara-kun!) "Ne, ne Sakura-chan. What's Gaara doing in your house anyway and why the hell are you HOLDING HANDS?" he asked rather loudly. Sakura and Gaara immediately let go of each other's hands while the other Haruno Sakura stalkers boiled in anger.
"Naruto, for once in your life could just freakin' shut up!" yelled Neji. "Ohayou, Sakura-chan…" he greeted her, causing everyone to sweatdrop at his sudden change of emotions. "Gaara." He greeted him with pure hatred as Gaara nodded in acknowledgement. "What the hell is Gaara doing in her house and why were they holding hands!" he yelled in his thoughts.
"Your jealous…aren't you!" his inner self appeared…again.
"You again! I thought I got rid of you!"
"Hello! Brains for sell! You can't get rid of me because I'm you! For god's sake, how many times do I have to tell you that!"
"Hn."
"There you go again with the 'hn' language!"
"Whatever!" he shook his head and focused on Sakura who started to question his other companions.
"Ne Shino-kun…did you guys receive that note thing from Tsunade-sama? You know the Konoha Big Brother reality show?" she smiled sweetly at him.
The Young Aburame almost lost his breath when she flashed her smile at him. He nodded slowly, trying not to drool at her sight. She smiled widely and turned her attention back to Gaara, causing him to frown. He went ahead and lead the group but got yanked by a feather-like touch that intertwined its hand with his own. He shoot his head to the back and began blush upon seeing the owner of the hand. His blushed became darker when he felt her getting near his face.
"I'm glad all my best friends are with me." She whispered to him and continued focusing on their walking. She intertwined her other hand with Gaara's as he smirked at her. Due to her curiosity she spoke her thoughts. "Hmm…I wonder who are the other fiv-I'm on it!" Neji cut her off as he activated their families' blood limit.
"Byakugan!" his nerves appeared in the side of his eyes as he continued searching. "I see…3 people approaching the Hokage's tower…and 1 person a little ahead of us." His eyes became normal again and scratched the back of his head. "Gomen…Sakura-chan…I can't determined who they are…" she nodded. "…but…" he continued as she looked at him with interest. "…I know who's ahead of us…" he furrowed his eyebrows. "I-I-It's…"
"Sasuke-teme!" yelled Naruto as the Uchiha prodigy stopped his tracks and gaze at the group. Sakura almost felt like kicking his ass when she saw him smirk right at her. She relaxed her knuckles and kept a low profile. She putted on a fake smile and walked towards him with Gaara holding her hand and the rest of the boys following them (Shino kindda backed out. He really loved the feeling that she is holding his hand but he totally can't handle the pressure. Hell, he almost wet his pants when she held his hand.).
SaSuKe'S p.O.v.
Sakura looks mature…not to mention…hott... But why the hell is Gaara holding her hand and why are those jack asses here anyway!
EnD oF sAsUkE's P.o.v….
The raven-haired boy's smirk grew wider as he was now face-to-face with the lovely Haruno. "Ohayou Sakura…Sabaku…Hyuuga…Aburame…Haku….Naruto…" he glared at the four boys (except Naruto) as they nodded in acknowledgement and glared back(including Naruto).
Sakura muttered a 'hello' and tried as hard as possible to keep her bubbly personality. She cleared her throat and spoke with him. "So, Sasuke…I see you're heading to Tsunade-sama's office…" he nodded as she continued "…and I also see you also received a scroll with the Konoha symbol. Well, I'll see you guys in Tsunade-sama's office. I got to…uhm…talk to her about something. Neji-kun…Shino-kun…Haku-chan…Naruto…Gaara-kun and I will go ahead. You guys just catch up. Ja!" she fled with the red-haired boy as they made her way to the tower. Neji, Shino and Haku walked ahead and followed their paths.
NeJi'S p.O.v.
Damn that Gaara! Why does Sakura-chan always choose Gaara to go with her and not me!
Maybe because you never made a move on Sakura-chan, you idiot!
Will you just g-FORGET IT!
ShInO's P.o.v.
God! I know I'm not the only one who's in love with Sakura-chan but why in god knows where does Gaara always get to be with her! At first I thought Neji and Haku were the problem but now, all of them are the problem! I can't take this anymore! Argh!
HaKu'S p.O.v.
Shit! It's always Gaara!
SaSuKe'S p.O.v.
What the hell! Wait a minute…I get it now… Sakura likes Gaara now and not me…! That bakemono will not have my Sakura! She's mine I tell you! Mine!
NaRuTo'S p.O.v.
My poor Sakura-chan! Why is she always interested with guys with bad boy attitudes and guys with an I-don't-give-a-damn look! But most importantly why the hell is Sasuke-teme here, anyway! Oh shit! I didn't bring enough ramen! (sighs) I guess I have to…steal some from Haku…again!
EnD oF tHeIr RaThEr DiStUrBiNg P.o.v…..
Naruto finally got out of his dumfounded situation and caught up with the rest of them. Naruto, being Naruto of course, spoke his mind. "Oi teme! Get back here you bastard!" he yelled at the dark-haired boy, bewildering the other three.
Sasuke turned around to face him. His hands shoved inside pockets, his usual gesture. His stoic expression was still kept on his face with that infamous Uchiha smirk plastered in his face, causing Naruto to flinch.
"What do you want, dobe?' he asked coldly
Naruto clench his fists. "Why are you so calm? You know Konoha had already disowned you because you betrayed us and even though you came back with your deepest apologies, people here aren't gonna treat you like before…but with the exception of your stupid fan girls. If you think that Sakura-chan is one of your annoying fan girls, then think again, Uchiha! She has moved on. So don't even dare to break her into pieces …and if you do…I will be the one to end your sappy life!" Sasuke was taken back. Naruto has never called him by his last name nor had good vocabulary. Even Neji, Haku and Shino were shocked. I mean never did Naruto say something so…heartless at anybody. He always says stuff that's encouraging and flashes his foxy grin all the time.
Sasuke, being his prideful self, just chuckled nonchalantly and returned to his stoic self. "Listen Naruto, I don't care what bullshit you just told me but remember one thing…" he flashed his cold-hearted onyx eyes to the kyuubi beholder. "…Sakura is mine!" he hissed.
Not being able to hold his temper, he shouted at the top of his lungs. "Sakura-chan is not yours and never will she be! Don't you get it Sasuke? She hates you! As in loathes you! She wants to kick your ass and beat the living shit out of you!" his vein popped out.
Sasuke breathe sharply and once again, he shoved his hands in his pockets. "We'll just see about that…Uzumaki." He said coolly and went on with his walking.
Naruto stayed silent for a while but he snapped his head when his attention was called by the male Hyuuga.
"Oi Naruto! Hurry up! The Hokage's not gonna wait for you all day!" he shouted as Naruto ran to catch up with them.
"Sakura is mine!" his face grimed as he remembered Sasuke's words. He clenched his fist once more. "I swear Sasuke will never have Sakura! I swear!" he muttered silently as he went on with their walking.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Shizune giggled with delight as she read the letter over and over again. "Shizune-chan, I wish to meet you. I can't keep on sending you letters anonymously all the time. Please meet me by the cherry blossom trees tonight, 6:00 pm. Until then my dear…from your secret admirer…" she mimicked the contents of the letter. She sighed happily and imagined her admirer. "May be it's Iruka or may be even Genma!" she squealed joyfully but soon her day dreaming was interrupted by a furious yell.
"TSUNADE-SAMA!" growled voice in fury. Its every footstep sent earthquakes to every hidden village. The said person slammed the door with complete anguish. Her eyes twinkled in anger. Her teeth gnashed together as she turned her gaze at the dark-haired woman who was shivering in fear. "Ohayou Shizune-chan! Gaara-kun and I are going to see Tsunade-sama, okay!" Shizune sweatdropped at her sudden change of emotions, she nodded slightly and stared at Sakura who dragged the kazekage's son inside the room.
"Young love I supposed." She said silently as she went on with her business.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Sakura slammed the Hokage's door. She growled in fury as she scanned the room. Her angry devil-like eyes returned to normal as she blinked several times and found no Godaime. All she saw were 3 people staring at her and Gaara, weirdly. She put on a happy smile and sat beside the Hyuuga heiress.
"Ohayou Hinata! Ohayou Shikamaru! Ohayou Ino!" they sweatdropped and returned her greeting.
InO's P.o.V.
OMG! Sakura and G-G-G-Gaara! I don't believe my eyes! Are they going out? Oh my dear lord! They're holding hands! They're definitely going out! Well, at least she's happy and…that makes me happy! I guess she has totally gotten over Sasuke…THANK GOD! I can't stand seeing her all depress! I mean, she's my best friend and I hate seeing her getting hurt by people she cared for! I'm glad I have Shika-kun. He's so sweet! Even though he's a lazy ass…that's okay!
ShIkAmArU's p.O.v.
Gaara and Sakura? Are they really going out? Hmph…why bother…so troublesome…like Ino-chan…and that's one of the reasons why I have feelings for her. She's bossy and troublesome…(sighs) mendo kusai…this so tiring…
HiNaTa'S p.O.v.
S-S-S-S-Sakura-c-c-h-a-a-a-n-n and Ga-a-a-ra-sa-a-n? I-I-I c-c-an't be-e-l-ie-v-v-e-e-e it…! Oh no! H-H-H-How wo-o-u-l-l-l-d-d N-N-Neji-'nii-s-s-san r-react to this?
EnD oF tHeIr P.o.V……
Sakura sat silently, her hand still intertwined with Gaara's as Ino eyed them suspiciously.
"Alright, Sakura! Spill! Your keeping something from me!" she shouted, bewildering them, except for Gaara, whose face was still unreadable.
"Spill what, Ino-pig!" Her expression changed from happy to annoyed
The blond-haired girl stood up and placed her hands on her hips, facing her. "Are you and Gaara dating or are you an item already!" she asked curiously, a smirk plastered on her face.
There are two reasons why Sakura and Gaara are blushing. One, is from embarrassment and two, anger.
Sakura heaved a heavy sigh and spoke. "We- We are currently dating. End of discussion!' he cut her off, a murderous glare aiming at Ino, making her shut up and return to her seat. Gaara on the other hand just held Sakura's hand tightly and lovingly, a blush creeping in each other's face.
"Oh Shika-kun! They look so sweet, ne!" Ino whispered in his ear.
"Whatever." She pouted but gasped as he wrapped an arm around her.
Hinata scanned her surroundings. She blushed in envy as she realized that she was the only one that doesn't have her special someone beside her. Her special someone was currently in love with someone else, namely her pink-haired friend. She sighed hopelessly and continued to fiddle with her fingers.
The two pairs of couples' sweet moment (are they a couple already? Well, don't mind it) was interrupted as the door slammed open. The strong smell of alcohol filled the room as the figure entered. She walked out of the shadows and revealed herself. "O-O-Ohayou minna-san!" greeted a very, very, very drunk Tsunade. Everyone in the room (including Hinata) twitched upon seeing the Godaime laughing crazily all of a sudden. She dropped her bottle of sake in the trashcan and fixed herself up. She cleared her throat and became serious again.
SaKuRa'S p.O.v.
Tsunade-sama got herself drunk again…! I can't believe her! Calm down Sakura…restrain your self from yelling at her…restrain…
EnD oF sAkUrA's P.o.v…
Tsunade scanned them and slammed her hands on her desk, startling them. "Where are the other 6 of you?" she directed the question to Sakura
"They'r-HERE!" they turn their attention to the Godaime's office door as it slammed open, revealing the latecomers. First to go inside were Shino, Neji and Sasuke while Haku followed them with Naruto on his back, trying to steal some ramen from his backpack but failed. They sat in the vacant seats as the Hokage counted them again.
"Two…four….six….wait! There're only 10 of you! Where's the eleventh one!" she practically yelled. "hmm…" she sighed "We'll just start without the last one…anyway he or she can still catch up." After speaking, Naruto raised a question.
"Ne Obaachan…about this reality TV show thing…what the hell are we gonna do?" he asked while sneaking his hand in Haku's bag (Apparently he failed because of two reasons. 1) Haku caught him red handed and 2) instead of sneaking his hand for ramen he accidentally grabbed Hinata's err...ahem…lower part in the back…earning him a hard slap that's new)
Out of a sudden a kunai came flying towards Tsunade. Everyone gaped but sighed in relief as her young apprentice snatched it away just in time to save the Godaime from her early funeral. She rose from her seat and stood in front of them. "Well, that was your cue." She said calmly with her trademark grin.
Raising their eyebrows in confusion, they asked the Hazel-eyed woman curiously. "What the hell do you mean, 'baa-chan?" Tsunade twitched her eyebrows
"I can't believe not even one of you noticed!" she yelled sarcastically
"What do you mean Tsunade-sa…" Sakura silenced her self as she eyed surroundings "I got it!" everyone turned their attention to the cherry blossom "We're not in your office! This is all an illusion!" Tsunade inwardly smirk at her young apprentice as the illusionary graphics disappeared and was replaced by a flat surface and a wild cheering crowd below it.
Everyone (including Sasuke and Gaara) gawked at the large crowd. I mean they had large grins on their faces (except for Sasuke and Gaara of course! They just smirked. Not the kind of people who would grin).
"Welcome young shinobis and kunoichis…to Konoha Big Brother!" The Hokage's voice echoed as the crowd cheered louder.
