Too Good to be True
Sakura walked into the high school full of people intending only to find one: Sasuke.
"H-hey, new g-girl?" A shy voice said and as Sakura span around she saw the girl who had helped her out with direction the day before with short purplish hair. "D-do you n-need any h-help?"
"Uhh thanks but no thanks! Hi, my name is Haruno Sakura!" She extended her hand and the othe girl shook it.
"H-hyuuga Hinata!" Two girls walked behind her and gave a questioning look. "T-this is T-TenTen" Hinata pointed to the brunette with 2 big buns in her hair. She looked a little dissapointed when Hinata stuttered her name out. Sakura gave her a big smile. "A-and this is Y-yamanaka Ino!" Sakura turned and smiled at the blond with piercing blue eyes.
"Nice to meet you!" Ino practically yelled.
"Hello, TenTen and Ino, my name is Haruno Sakura, nice to meet you too!"
"So," TenTen started "I here you're the pricipal's special guest"
"Well, not exactly! I'm a friend of her family!" Sakura said.
Ino leaned forward and whispered into Sakura's ear "If you get the answers to the tests, give them to me okay?" Sakura giggled at how straight forward she was. As Ino leaned back she screeched a high pitched squeal. "OMG! It's Sasuke-kun! Hinata, do I look okay?" Hinata responded him a nod without even looking at her…like a daily routine. Sakura turned and saw Sasuke with. She smiled a bright smile only meant for him and waved and he lifted up his hand and smirked as a greeting.while the other girls looked at her in shock.
"Y-you know U-uchiha S-sasuke, already?" Hinata looked at her weaird.
"Well, we're acquaintances!" She blushed a little and the girls did not let that go by.
"He hardly talks to anyone except his posse…and us! Hardly even the teachers!" Ino exclaimed and Sakura looked surprised. When Sasuke talked to her, it was like they knew each other their whole lives but she never expected him to act so differently around other people.
"He must really like you!" TenTen nudged Sakura. Sasuke and his group walked over to them. Hinata opened her mouth to introduce them but TenTen stopped her for she knew it would take forever if Hinata said it.
"Everyone this is Haruno Sakura!" She pointed to Sakura. "Sakura this is Sasuke, as you already know, Uzumaki Naruto," She pointed to an arrogant looking loud-mouth piky haired blond that smiled a broad grin. "Hyuuga Neji, Yes he is related to Hinata," TenTen said before Sakura could ask. She could tell by his blank white eyes and pale looking features. "Nara Shikamaru," A lazy looking boy with brow hair tied up in a pinapple shaped ponytail. "Kiba," A dog boy with paint on his face, fangs and a dog on his head. "And finally, Rock Lee" TenTen pointed to a boy with a bowl-cut, tights and big bushy brows.
"Sakura-chan, you are the brightest and youthfull flower I have ever seen!" Rock Lee grabbed her hand. "Go out with me and I'll protect you with my life!"
Sasuke was practically blazing when he heard this. He was sending off killing intent everywhere and he was glaring at the back of Lee's head. The only people who noticed this was Sakura and Neji. Sakura saw the fire surrounding him and almost whimpered. Neji just smirked.
"L-lee, I have to politely decline…" Sakura was getting scared by the glaring she was receiving. Sasuke's killing intent went down a little but it was still there. 'Why politely, just say no' Sasuke thought.
"Then I shall prove myself to you, Sakura" Lee did not look a bit discouraged.
"Sakura?" Sasuke spoke up and his posse looked very surprised. "Can I talk to you privately?" Before Sakura could answer he grabbed her wrist light and pulled her while she trailed after him saying a quick goodbye.
The group that came with Sasuke were shocked. "They know each other already?" comments like that were made.
Sasuke reached the out of service girls' washroom and walked inside knowing that it was safe.
"Sakura, I don't want you to let any more boys touch you!" Sasuke turned to Sakura once safe inside.
"Sasuke, do I sense jeolousy?" Sasuke looked away embarrassed. "Besides I'm not your property! Remember our deal!" She crossed her arms across her chest and looked annoyed.
"Just because I am not allowed to kiss you does not mean I cannot stop other people from kissing you!"
"And just because you are not allowed to kiss me does not mean I'm not allowed to kiss you!" She raised her hand placing it behind his neck and reached up his shirt feeling his sick pack. Sasuke supported her by holding her waist.
"Tempting, Sakura, tempting…" She was so close to his face but he could not close the distance.
"But I would rather torture you and not kiss you" Sakura grinned menacingly and pulled back while Sasuke groaned.
"When the week is over I'm gonna get you!" he threatened.
"Let's see if you can make it that far!" She stuck out her tongue and tweeked his nose as a sign of affection but Sasuke groaned in pain.
"Oh my, what did you do to your nose?!" He was about a head and a half taller than her. "Let me see!"
"Sakura it's okay. Don't worry!" Sasuke held his nose softly.
"It's my job to worry! Besides it's broken! Come one Sasuke, kneel down! I'm too short!" When Sasuke didn't move, she did puppy eyes and looked up at him. "Please Sasuke…for me!" Sasuke groaned and rolled his eyes but reluctantly kneeled and Sakura smiled. They both kneeled on the floor while Sakura examined his nose.
"Who did this? What were you doing? You have to be more careful!" Sakura wrinkled her eyebrows in worry.
Sakura hot breath of Sasuke's face made it hard for him to concentrate but he still caught the questions.
"Umm…I was caught off guard by a baseball…thinking of you"
"Oh so it's my fault you were hit in the face by a baseball? There's no way a baseball could do this Sasuke! Tell the truth!" Sakura looked at him sternly but his pride would not let him admit he was kneed in the face by a girl. Besides if he told her then he would have to tell her why he was kneed even if it was an accident he grabbed…something. "Fine, don't tell me! I can see you don't trust me enough to tell me why your nose is broken!" Sakura was getting a little mad so she started to stand up without finishing her job.
Sasuke, in mostly panic that she would leave, pulled her into a hug; since he could not kiss her. "Sakura, you know I care about you! But I can't tell you everything! You might have some secrets you don't want me to know about and I don't invade your privacy. It's not that I don't trust you…it's that I care about you! Believe me! I don't know what I would do without you! Now could you please continue…my nose is killing me!"
"I'm sorry Sasuke, I didn't mean to invade your privacy…but you should be careful!"
Sakura's hands released green chakra as she healed Sasuke's nose. Sasuke could not help but thinking how gentle he was and what he a good mother she would be. He mentally smacked himself, how could he be thinking of something like that at his age?!
"Sakura, you would make a great medic!" Sasuke complemented.
"Thanks!" she responded enthusiastically finishing her job on his nose. She paused hesitantly. "Sasuke…I was meaning to ask you…why do you act so differently when you're with your friends?" Sasuke looked at her thoughtfully so she continued. "I mean, when you are with me, you're sweet and kind. But when you are with them, you are so emotionless."
Sasuke scoffed looking away. "They don't deserve my kindness. You're special, Pinky."
"Sasuke, I'm not special. Everybody deserves to be treated the same way." She smiled a broad and bright smile. A smile she seemed to have reserved only for him. "I learned that when I was training to be a medic. Obviously everybody needs a certain amount of attention and treatment but I always treat everyone the same…just think about it, Ice-cube!" She patted his head and walked out the girls washroom as Sasuke followed shortly. Sakura swore she could feel a pair of eyes boring into her neck but when she turned around, there was noone in sight so she shrugged it off.
