"sakura-san, wake up!" The maid called out. She awoke in her school clothes with tears staining her pillows. Is that what happened? She cried herself to sleep how tragic. "Are you alright Sakura-san?"

The maid said. She nodded and got up. Why was it so heartbreaking knowing that Itachi wasn't her promised guy? Inner sakura: Maybe b/c he's so hot, nice, and smart.. Outer sakura: no! No I don't like him that way! Inner sakura: that's why you cried your self to sleep when he said he wasn't your promised guy. Outer sakura: I was just shocked that's all!

Suddenly sasuke appeared in her room and said, "Hey Sakura-chan, are you feeling better today?" Sakura was shocked for one thing and said, "I'm fine.. Sasuke." sasuke said, "Don't lie, you were really upset at dinner yesterday you wouldn't even look at Itachi. I know you hate him but not that much." Sakura turned red and said, "Nothing happened we just had a fight."

Sasuke set the tray by her with a plate with pancakes, eggs, and bacon! Also some milk at the side. Sakura looked at it and said, "Sasuke, you didn't have to do this.." Sasuke said, "I know but I wanted to."

Her jade eyes gazed at his onyx eyes how he looked like itachi.. so very much.. Yesterday she had no idea what Itachi meant that Sasuke was hurt.. but she understood clearly now.. It's true she told him about tenten liking a guy that she couldn't talk to that tenten liked a lot.. but since sasuke was in a different grade he didn't know tenten. So he must've thought tenten wasn't a real girl at all and it was really herself liking Sasuke.. What a fool I am.. That's why he seemed a bit distant yesterday knowing I didn't like him that way.

Sasuke said, "Sakura, you should eat some breakfast." Sakura fell back onto her pillows and said, "I don't feel like going anywhere." the tears she cried were evident since her face was still wet with tears.. Her famous smile was gone and replaced by a frown. It was all Itachi's fault Sasuke thought. Sasuke moved the breakfast to the side and held her and said, "I'll protect you from Itachi I promise."

She just hugged him closer and cried on his shoulder. She needed someone she could depend on..Someone to lean on to when the world crashes into a million pieces. He said, "Now wipe those tears and have some breakfast okay Sakura?" She nodded and started eating the pancakes. Sasuke said, "If you're not going to go out today then what about you date with Neji today?"

Sakura screamed, "Crap! I forgot about that.. mann I don't feel like going today." Sasuke said, "Are you going to cancel or?" She said, "I can't I have to help tenten remember. ugh.." She drank some milk and said, "Sasuke.. thanks really." He said, "Your welcome." Sakura said, "I have nothing to wear for this date anyway why should I go?" Sasuke said, "How about drowning your sorrows away in spending some money at the mall with some ice cream?"

Sakura seemed it was a good idea and said, "Sure, let's go sasuke." She changed quickly into causal jeans and a shirt. Sakura reached for the door to met the eyes of the person who made her cry last night. Itachi Uchiha. Her eyes slowly locked onto his but then quickly moved before he could say a word. Sasuke was in back on the limo and said, "Come on sakura-chan." Sakura excitedly came and said, "Wow, a limo! So lucky!"

As the limo driver drove them to the mall Sakura's eyes seemed to drift off into different places her mind was in a world of it's own. Did she meet Itachi on the way down to the limo? Finally they were at the mall. Sakura walked with Sasuke but her expression was still blank.. Sasuke gave her some money and said, "Spend it to your heart's content."

Sakura began browsing stores already with the jewelry and clothes there. As they passed many stores she began to buy more it seemed. Watches, books, jeans, and shirts. They passed a wedding gown store. Sakura stopped walking and whispered, "Sasuke, can we go into this store?" Sasuke looked up to see a wedding gown store.. and said confused, "Sure, if you want to."

She went inside where a lady said, "IS this lucky girl getting married soon?" She turned pink and said, "Ohh noo, I'm just trying on a wedding dress." The woman was like, "Well there are many different choices." Sakura browsed through some dresses and she actually looked happy for the first time today. She took a handful of dresses and said, "Sasuke, if you need me I'll be in the dressing room." Sasuke said, "Okay." She went through many but hadn't come out of the dressing room.

The lady said, "Madam, are you ready can we see how you look?" Sakura said, "Just a second!" Sakura opened the doorknob to see her reflection in the mirror it was breathtaking. It was stunning and amazing this dress was made for her. She was meant to wear it at her wedding with her promised guy. The woman said, "You look gorgeous but how about let's put some make-up on your a curl you hair at the end a bit?" She smiled and said, "Sure!"

After an hour sasuke was waiting getting annoyed wondering what she was doing. Sasuke said, "Sakura, are you ready yet?" Sakura said, "One second more please." The woman opened the curtains revealing a stunning Sakura. Her jade eyes with her long pink hair that was curled at the ends.. Her edible pink lips and long slender legs with this amazing dress. Sakura was pink and said, "A-Ano, Sasuke.. what do u think?" She was quite an innocent girl still.. He smirked and said, "It looks great. You should buy it."

Sakura said, "B-but sasuke!" Sasuke said, "No, you are going to buy that dress.. It was destined for you to wear it at your wedding.. I can tell you love it." Sakura said, "Thanks Sasuke.." Sasuke and Sakura were going home in the limo when she fell asleep and only one word she muttered in her sleep, "Itachi-kun."

His eyes narrowed so she still loved Itachi even though he wasn't the promised guy and made her cry all night? Sasuke said, "Sakura, we're back go take a shower I think Neji will be here." Sakura went off and hung her wedding dress in her room and changed into casual jeans that hugged her hips perfectly and green top to match her eyes.

She left her room and bumped into him again.. Her jade eyes were locked onto his longer than before.. She was still hurt but she wanted to talk to him. He said, "Sakura, can you move?" She just muttered, "Right." She moved irritated at his behavior. Inner sakura: You should go smack him! He has no right! Outer sakura: but I still like him Inner sakura: he's being a meanie beat him up! She let it go as she was passing time listening to music.

The doorbell rang as she went to get it there was Neji. She smiled and said, "Neji!" Neji said, "How are you doing sakura-chan?" She said, "Fine, how about you?" Neji said, "Just fine. So shall we go?" At the corner of her eye she could see Itachi watching her carefully. She said, "Sure, let's go Neji-KUN." As they went off in his car Neji said, "So, Tenten she's a friend of yours?" She smiled even wider and said, "Yea, she is." Neji said, "She talked to me the other day we have a lot in common."

Sakura said, "Yea, she's very athletic and all." Neji said, "I saw you in the wedding gown store today with..Sasuke Uchiha." Sakura turned red and said, "Umm.. really." Neji said, "Yea, are you planning on getting married at 16 already to that Uchiha? I mean he's 15 and you shouldn't throw your life away and..." Sakura said, "NEJI! I'm not getting married." Neji said, "Then why were you buying the gown?" Sakura said, "It was my dream gown.. I needed to buy it and sasuke was nice enough to let me buy it." Neji said, "I saw you in that dress too.. you looked amazing. simply gorgeous."

Sakura was red all over and said, "U-Umm.. thanks." Neji said, "Well let's go inside." They got out the car and sakura saw a fancy restaurant. Sakura said, "Wow, Neji.. You know how to treat a girl!" Neji said, "Mhmm." They sat down and ordered when Neji said, "Something is off with you. Are you okay?" She nodded and said, "Nothing is wrong Neji-san." She looked around the room and said, "You were never a good liar.. What happened?" Sakura said, "Nothing..Neji-san, really." Neji said, "Just tell me sakura, I'll listen."

Sakura sighed in defeat and said, "It's just... complicated.. I came to Japan for a reason..to find the boy who promised me years ago that we would get married once we found each other again. So I returned to Japan to find this guy.. but I can't even remember his name.. The qualities seemed close to Itachi Uchiha and I asked him and he said no. I have no idea why but I was devastated when I found out. And here I am now..forcing a smile instead of crying my eyes out."

Neji said, "So, after all that talk about hating Itachi you actually like him?" Sakura turned red and said, "kinda.. I don't know why? He's an idiot! Anyways, Neji I'm not the girl for you." Neji said, "How so?"

Sakura said, "well.. I know the perfect girl for you.. Hopefully you'll see her in a new light soon. I have to go Neji-san. I'm sorry. It's just way too soon for me.. See you in school!" Her attractive figure left the restaurant leaving Neji to ponder the promised one for sakura-chan. I wonder who it could be? In the bushes were a couple of guys and one said, "Sakura, has a promised guy wait till the whole school finds out."

they scurried off.. Sakura walked home looking at the sky. She smiled and remembered Flashback: A young girl with short pink hair and jade eyes said, "I'm scared... -kun. It's dark!" The boy said, "Don't be scared sakura-chan follow me and close your eyes." The small boy put his hands over her eyes and led her. He whispered, "We're here sakura-chan."

He took his hands off her eyes to reveal a beautiful night sky on a roof. Sakura was amazed by the view. She said, "Look, a shooting star! Make a wish!" He said, "No need to I already have it." She smiled back at him. END OF FLASH BACK

Her eyes gazed the vivd night sky and screamed, "Why didn't my wish come true? You cheapos! My wish from years ago still hasn't come true.." She broke down in the middle of the street where there was no Neji, no sasuke.. and no itachi.. outer sakura:Did I just think no itachi? No way! Inner sakura: You still love him even though he's not ur promised one..

Tears were staining her perfect face when she heard a voice that she wanted to hear but at the same time hated it. "Sakura, you shouldn't cry." She looked up and saw the boy she kept avoiding that day.. Apparently it wasn't working! There was so mysterious and attractive. The guy every girl desired in school. She got up and wiped her tears and turned the other way and said, "What do you want!"

Suddenly his arms were touching her shoulders she turned red. He whispered in her ear, "Is this about last night?" She couldn't believe it Itachi was touching her..under the moonlight sky.. Inner Sakura: Someone is having naughty thoughts.. outer sakura: No! I was just saying the truth! Inner sakura: I think you want to have your way with himm.. bad girl! outer sakura: NO I DON'T!

She whispered, "Not really." He said, "Sakura, if we went into deep depression when you found out it wasn't me then.. it means.." She looked at him more intently and he said, "You like me.." He was smiling and laughing. She turned red with fury and said, "Like hell I like you! Itachi said, "Really? Then why were you so devastated then huh?"

Sakura said, "I don't know but I don't like you!" Itachi said, "Sure.. well come on I have the car parked let's go." Sakura walked with him to the car they were starting to come to terms with each other once more. sakura said, "Itachi, one question how did you know I'd be here?" Itachi said, "Because I knew you wouldn't last long on that date with Hyuuga." She said, "Shut up and drive!" At least she felt comfortable with him once again.. Tomorrow would be another day to deal with.

PREVIEW FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER- Sakura arrived at school when millions of people were blocking her locker they all seemed be screaming questions at her. Questions like "Is it true you only came to Japan to meet you promised guy?" "Who is this promised guy? What's his name! does he go to this school!" Many guys screamed, "I'm your promised guy Sakura-chan." She had been popular since she was hanging out with Neji,Sasuke and Itachi. One question boomed in her head HOW IN THE HELL DID EVERYONE KNOW? Suddenly a person handing out school newspapers gave one to her.. Top headlines? Exchanged student has a promised guy from the past she is to wed.. WTF! Someone was going to get killed..
