Chapter 3 – Not So Cinderella

Sakura sighed frustrated. She was lost in the richest neighbourhood she had ever seen. Though, there was an upside. Maybe she'd miss the bastard's party.

She hoped.

Her cell-phone vibrated and she parked the car rummaging around it looking for it. She groaned loudly at who was calling.

Tsunade.

She pondered on whether to pick it up.

She sighed loudly "hello?" she answered

"Hiya Sakura!! Ya at the party yet?"

"Erm…" she fumbled with the radio knobs turning it up full volume.

"Yeah!" she answered "the music is really loud, and there goes Ino! You wanna talk to her?" Sakura closed her eyes and prayed that Tsunade would fall for that bluff.

"No thanks." Sakura sighed in relief "I just talked to her." Sakura stiffened "and you'd never believe what she said!"

Sakura winced as Tsunade screamed "you're not there yet!!!!"

"well see…I kinda got lost" she laughed

"well," Tsunade laughed meanly "I suggest you get un-lost unless you wanna die tomorrow."

Sakura gulped. This was a strange conversation. It should be "get your butt home now if you wanna live to be 18!!"Not "get to that party right now! It is your punishment!"

Well, that's the screwed up life of Haruno Sakura!

Sakura groaned as Tsunade hung up. She listened to the fast paced beeps for what seemed like forever before hanging up and continuing the dreaded drive to…

HER DOOM! (Dun dun duuuuhhh!!) Or what she thought would be her doom.

After another 10 minutes of driving aimlessly she found her destination. A house bigger than the moon.

Her jaw dropped as she walked towards the house parking her car on the curb. She noticed a sign it said in large letters "NO PARKING AFTER 12 AM ALL CARS WILL BE TOWED". She continued to awe in amazement at the gigantic home.

She walked right through the gate. She raised an eyebrow at the sleeping "security". They were probably over-priced and here they were. Fat and asleep.

She walked closer and closer to the house. She sighed as a man opened the door. He looked like Sasuke/Chicken-Ass Bastard but more mature.

"h-hi." She stuttered. He had an intimidating aura.

He stared at her.

"I'm" she gulped staring at her feet "here about Chicken-Ass Bastard's party." Her eyes widened and she wished she could take that back.

Why?

Because this guy was (obviously) Sasuke's brother. And most likely protective. So she was most likely about to get jumped.

She braced herself closing her eyes tightly when she heard a soft chuckle "Chicken-Ass Bastard?" he repeated.

Sakura opened her eyes and stared at the handsome, older stranger.

She blushed embarrassed.

"His party is at the beach house."

Sakura screamed "you guys have a beach house!?!?!"

He smirked "yeah."

"You guys are too rich!" she complained "I don't even got 2 pennies to rub together!"

He raised an eyebrow "you're not rich? How do you go to the same school as…Chicken-Ass Bastard?"

Sakura grinned goofily "that is MY secret!" she paused "well" she said sheepishly "I'm on a scholarship."

"So you aren't dumb?"

"Heck no!"

"So you could find your way to the beach house on your own?"

"HELL NO!"

She sniffled childishly "directions don't count! I got lost in my apartment building once!" she said sounding…proud?

He sighed loudly "do you want me to drive you there?"

She nodded.

Itachi decided right there he would never ever let that creepy aura leave him again because of girls like her.

Sakura continued to jabber the entire way "yeah and my hair is really pink! Can you believe that? People used to say I was a liar and I dyed it! So I showed them my drivers' license and they were speechless! They were all 'OMG! I can't believe that!!' and I was all 'haha in your faces freakoids!'. Did I tell you my name is Sakura? Yep! Yep! That's my name! It's a nice name right? It means Cherry Blossom! Isn't that a pretty name? You're name's Itachi! Yep! Yep you told me! I remember! Anyways it's a pretty name! Right? Right? Right?!"

She paused and stared at Itachi "hel-lo?"

"I'm choosing to ignore you." He said coldly

Sakura made an 'O' with her mouth. She turned to face the front tapping the glass and humming as the wind blew through her hair.

She shivered slightly.

Itachi pressed a button and the top of the convertible immediately closed. After a minute Sakura mumbled softly "thanks"

She stared at the radio and glanced at Itachi twice.

He sighed irritated. She was like baby-sitting a 5 year old! Cold, music…what was next a story?

"Which station?" he asked. She shook her head and grinned at him "I brought some CDs!"

His jaw almost dropped as she pulled out a whole collection of CDs.

"Hmm" she thought carefully flipping through her CDs "who do you like?"

He shrugged signalling he really didn't give a damn "Finger Eleven?" she gasped "ME TOO!"

She popped in the CD and a track started and Sakura grinned, loudly singing along

"When you feel so close to some resolve
And you write the words you were writing for
But your courage gets dissolved
Into what, I don't know...

When you feel that way again
You have to stop your thinking
And think of what you're here for
And let the rest of your feelings go"

Itachi turned a corner. Only 10 miles to go he thought gratefully as she continued to sing along.

"You've got to find your balance
You've got to realize
You've got to try to find what's right before your eyes
And if you find you've fallen
And all your grace is gone
Just scream for me and I'll be what you're falling on

When you feel so close to some resolve
And you say the things that you're standing for
Don't let your courage get dissolved
Cause it's then that the fear grows"

She stopped and started flipping through her CDs again still mumbling along to the lyrics

"AH-HA!" She pulled out another CD but the radio started playing "And another great song that everyone loves, Trey Songz' 'Can't Help But Wait'!!!"

Sakura squealed "OMG, OMG!!" She grabbed his arm nearly cutting off circulation "I totally love this song!"

"Don't get your wings in a knot, calm down." (clue to the costume!)

Sakura glared for a second but then started singing to the song

"I See U, U Wit Him, He Ain't Right But U Don't Trip
U Stand By, While He Lies, Then Turn Right Round And Forgive
I Can't Take, To See Your Face Wit Those Tears Runnin Down Yo Cheeks
But What Can I Do, I Gotta Stay True, Cuz Deep Down I'm Still A G"

Itachi sped up the car wanting to get rid of her.

She put al the CDs back in her purse. He stopped in front of the beach house Sakura's jaw dropped "that is damn huge," she said shaking her head slowly back and forth in disbelief.

"LOOK AT IT!" she commanded Itachi.

He smirked and started driving off. Sakura squeaked and sped up running next to the car.

He stopped "what?" he asked exhausted with baby-sitting her.

"I need a ride home" she said quietly.

He groaned "what time Sakura?"

"uh…how about…" she thought for a second "you be here at…12?"

Itachi nodded "I'll be here."

Sakura grinned "thanks Itachi-kun!!!" Itachi's eye twitched as she started complimenting him. How does she talk so much? But she stopped all of a sudden.

"Well, I gotta get to Chicken-Ass Bastard's party or Tsunade's gonna kill me!"

Itachi nodded and started driving off "good-bye Itachi-kun! I'm gonna miss you!"

Sakura could've sworn his car sped up when she said that, but chose it to be a coincidence.

Sakura shoved through the crowd stepping on someone's toe here and there. Her eye twitched at most of the guy costumes. They were all dressed as the Chicken-Ass Bastard himself!

How original right?

Sakura continued to elbow through the crowd until she spotted her blond friend with a Chicken-Ass Bastard look-a-like.

Or at least she thought it was a look-a-like.

"NARUTO!!" she shrieked

Sasuke looked all around the party. His eye twitched at al the people who looked like him, how…

Creepy.

He stared at all the pink haired girls in the crowd. A lot of them were dressed as make believe creatures. Others were dressed as……Sasuke was gonna go with strippers. They were wearing almost nothing!!

"Hey Sasuke" some called Sasuke turned his head and saw another blob of hims "oh wait you're not teme! Teme, it's me! Hey you aren't teme! CRAP! TEME WHERE ARE YOU?"

"Eh dobe," Sasuke.

The blond haired boy grinned stupidly "hey teme!"

Sasuke rolled his eyes.

He continued to scan the crowd for something interesting (YA LIL' PERVERT SASUKE!) His obsidian eyes fell on a fairy. She was walking towards him (he thought XD). She opened her mouth. Sasuke panicked if she recognized him as the real Sasuke and screamed his name he wouldn't be left alone all night!

"NARUTO!!" she shrieked.
