tenten bumped into Neji and she said, "Sorry, Neji-san." Neji said, "You look familiar are you in my lunch?" Tenten said, "Umm.. yea I am." Neji said, "What's your name anyways?" Tenten said, "My name is tenten." Neji thought tenten.. "You're one of those girls that doesn't like Itachi Uchiha right? like sakura?"

She nodded. Neji said, "Cool, so are you friends with Sakura?" She quickly nodded. Neji said, "Wait, aren't you involved in sports or something?" Tenten said, "Y-yea, I'm in track, field hockey, and soccer." Neji said, " Wow, that's a lot.." Tenten was still red and said, "yea, it is but I love playing sports. D-Do you p-play any sports?"

Neji said, "well, I play soccer and basketball and if you count acting I do that too. I'm into drama." Tenten said, "R-Really, that's awesome!" Neji said, "Well I have to go and meet sakura to talk about the physics project, but come sit with me tomorrow for lunch okay tenten?" Tenten turned crimson and said, "Of course.. See you tomorrow N-Neji-san." Neji said, "Later tenten!"

He ran off.. She couldn't believe it she managed to talk to Neji Hyuuga without fainting. Sakura came out of the bushes and said, "See, it went really well!" tenten took a book and smacked sakura with her SAT prep book and said, "Why did you do that I was sooo scared!" Sakura with her smashed face said, "You did fine tenten.. and now you're eating lunch together.. ooo."

Tenten said, "He probably only likes me because I'm friends with you Sakura." Sakura said, "What's so good about me anyway? it has nothing to do with me.. He likes you enough to invite you to eat lunch together!" Sasuke came over and said, "What happened?" Sakura smiled and said, "Tenten finally plucked the courage to talk to Neji! Go tenten!" Sasuke remembered,

Flashback: Sakura said "I met this girl named tenten.. she's really cool.. she has a crush on this guy but can't talk to him.. she loses her words.. so I decided to ask this guy but.. he wanted to date me.. so I'm going on a date w/ him.. Just to get information about him that tenten can use of course." So tenten was a real girl.. Figures.. Sakura was screaming, "go tenten!" tenten said, "stop sakura!" Sasuke said, "Maybe, you should try NOT to embarss her." Sakura said, "Sasuke! You're going to pay for that!"

She was chasing him with tenten's sat prep book. Sasuke said, "Get away from me! that book is soo thick!" Sakura said, "Come on you know you want your face smashed by me.." Sakura was running so fast she bumped into Itachi. Itachi said, "What are you doing?" Sakura said, "trying to smash sasuke's face with tenten's SAT prep book!"

Itachi helped her up and said, "I know you like to resort to violence at times but at the moment you shouldn't." Sakura said, "why not!" Itachi simply said, "Because Sasuke is already hurt." Sakura being dense as she was said, "What? How? He didn't fall or anything?"

She looked at sasuke trying to inspect him checking for any injuries. She said, "itachi, you joke your brother is fine!" Tenten said, "Sakura, you're so silly at times." Sakura smiled and said, "You love me for it tenten and you know it well I have to go! Itachi and I have a project to do later!" Tenten waved as Sakura walked with Itachi to the car. Itachi said, "So, are you still going on that date with Hyuuga?" Sakura's eyes got narrow and said, "What if I am? Is it against the rules to date a Hyuuga?" Sasuke came and said, "I thought you were dating him for information for tenten your friend."

Sakura seemed surprised to see sasuke and said, "Yea, I am just wondering why your brother is getting so poessive!" Sasuke's eyes darkened and focused on Itachi's eyes. Itachi said, "Who said I was getting poessive I was just hoping you wouldn't fall in love with Neji and ruin your friend's chance with him." Sakura's mouth widened and said, "I would never do such a thing! She shares a passion of something we both like.. Hating you of course." He said coldly, "Well I'm not too fond of you either you two walk okay see you later." Sakura said, "Itachi, wait.. did I say too much.."

Sasuke said, "Let him go let's walk back together." Sakura sighed and said, "I guess so." Sasuke said, "So, this promised guy are you sure he goes to school here?" Sakura said, "Well the preschool we were going to had a program for schools and this is clearly listed for high school.. So he should be.. Unless.. he moved, he died, he skipped a lot of grades and is in college." Her face turned dark as her eyes filled with sorrow..

Tears began coming down her face and she said, "What if I never find him Sasuke?" She sat on the sidewalk hugging her knees crying. Sasuke hated seeing her like this. He sad beside her and said, "Don't give up hope Sakura, I'm sure you'll find him. I mean you wouldn't come all the way here to fail right? You believed you would find this guy."

She began to slowly smile again and wiped her tears and said, "You're right.." Inner sakura: Sasuke might be the promised guy. Outer sakura: No way! He's younger that me it's not possible! Inner sakura: he's nice, cute, and likes you come on he is totally the one. Outer sakura: we'll just wait and see... They continued to walk as she was left in her thoughts to ponder if sasuke was the promised guy? "Sakura-chan, you're finally home I was getting worried!"

Mikoto said. Sakura said, "Sorry, Mikoto-san." Mikoto said, "It's okay I was just worried since Itachi came home earlier and is down at the river just staring into space for the last half and hour." Sakura said, "Is he okay?" Mikoto said, "I don't know.. He doesn't talk much." Without saying a word she went towards the river leaving sasuke confused. Sakura never understood why she suddenly just left to see Itachi. Sakura looked at Itachi from far away he was just standing there looking into space was angry for some reason.

Inner sakura: Maybe because you said you hated him Outer sakura: So, he knows I don't like him for stealing a kiss from me. Inner sakura: Are you really sure you hate him? He's helping you find your promised guy.. Sakura said quietly, "Can I join you?" Itachi looked back at Sakura and said, "Hnn." Sakura was always infuriated that he didn't say many words. Sakura said, "Itachi-san, if this is about earlier today.. I'm sorry. I don't hate you."

Itachi didn't say a word. Sakura hated this someone not speaking to her.

Flashback: Sakura still lived in Japan at the time. A certain someone was the one she loved the most. She loved him with all her heart, but an incident happened. "I love you so much (promised guy)." Sakura said. (promised guy) said, "I love you too Sakura-chan." they hugged and then came another boy who lived close by. She began to play with him more often because the boy she liked was often busy. However one day he walked in on them. The boy said, "I love you Sakura-chan." She smiled and said, "I like playing with you too. I love you too." The boy she loved the 1st guy said, "I thought you loved me sakura-chan." Sakura said, "I do! Who said I changed!" He said, "You love him.. I don't want to talk to you anymore.. I hate you!" He walked out and her emerald eyes were filled with tears. She didn't understand she thought she could love as many people as she desired.

She said, "Itachi-san, please say something!" Itachi just stood there ignoring her. She said, "I swear you are just like that guy I promised.." Tears were coming down her face as she said, "He hated me for loving another boy but it wasn't a love love it was like friends... He got extremely jealous and said he hated me and wouldn't talk to me...We didn't talk for weeks until we realized we missed each other a lot and love each other the most."

Itachi said, "Sakura, it's not your fault at all. You like Sasuke.. I don't care.." Sakura said, "Who said I liked him! Stop jumping to conclusions I only love my promised guy which I desire to find the most." Itachi said, "Are you sure that's what you want?" She was screaming now, " Of course that's what I want! Why did I travel across the world?"

She looked at him as the sun began to set. She looked into his onyx eyes and she whispered, "Maybe.." She moved closer to him and said, "I came to fall in love.." Itachi watched her as her lips came onto his. She kissed him like she loved him. She said suddenly, "Are you the one?" He said, "I'm sorry but I don't believe I am." She said, "What? but, i was for sure.."

He said, "Sorry Haruno, it's not me." She was dumbfounded Itachi-san wasn't her promised guy. Her eyes lowered to the ground as she quickly said, "Sorry." She ran off with tears streaming down her face. She locked her room door and wondered how things turned out this way? She poured through her memories as she remembered a memory.

Flashback: Little Sakura said, "I miss my mommy!" Tears were streaming down her cute face. The boy said, "Sakura-chan, please don't cry." She said, "My mommy died! I'll never see her again or hug her again.. I miss her -kun.." He hugged her and said, "Please don't cry...I hate to see you cry. I feel sad." she looked up at him and said, "-kun, do you love me?" He answered, "Yes, I love you."
