Hey my people. Thanks for the reviews! I really like where I'm going with the story. I have so many Ideas popping around in my head, so hopefully you guys will stick with me through the whole thing.

Full Summary: My name is Sakura Haruno. I am a young samurai with a family secret to protect. My father has fallen into a coma but has left me with a heavy burden. The Japanese mafia was after my father, and now they are after me. The only hope I have of defeating them is to train with the cold hearted Sasuke Uchiha, whom I think I've fallen in love with.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or any of the characters involved in the story.

ON WITH THE STORY!!

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Last time….

"Meet me at the dojo at 5 o'clock, your training will begin today, no more play time," he said. Oh shit. He was back to his cold-hearted self. Suddenly, he did something so unexpected, it left me in a mental state of shock. He bent down and kissed my cheek, which made my heart melt. I was going to turn to respond, but before I knew it he disappeared into his small little room.

"Are you coming or not Sakura?!" Ino said from inside her white car. I smirked and went to the door and waved, signaling that I was headed down. I grabbed my things from the bathroom and then put them inside my small little bag. I grabbed a sweater and some shoes, and I was off. Finally…maybe my stay in America was going to get a little more interesting.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

I felt the wind blow through my hair as Ino drove the car through the small neighborhood. A smile appeared on my face as I imagined what Sasuke was doing.

"So," Ino said, wrecking my thoughts, "Can I ask what you were doing living in Sasuke's place?"

Why was she asking? Did she have a thing for him? Did Sasuke and Ino used to go out? No way, he would've told me if they were going out. Well…that might not be true, he rarely tells me anything about his personal life.

"Um, he was just…" what do I say? I can't tell her that I'm running away from the yakuza, and I can't tell her that I was living with Sasuke so he could train me, she'll ask why.

"Um, he's a cousin of mine, I came from Japan, he was just being kind," I said. My cousin! He's going to be my COUSIN?! What the fuck is wrong with you Sakura!

"Oh, okay," Ino said. I couldn't help but notice that her voice seemed calmer now that she knew…more like thought…that Sasuke was my cousin.

"Oh yeah, Sasuke said that I had to be at the dojo at 5 o'clock. Do you know what he's talking about?" I asked, trying to change the subject.

"Yeah! Of course! You see, we both work at a Dojo. I teach the little kids, while he teaches the more advance students," Ino said with more of a snooty attitude, and I didn't like it.

"Okay," I said. I flipped my pink hair in frustration, which Ino probably didn't notice. What happened to Ms. I'm Going To Shake Your Hand And Be Fake?

I had to laugh at myself, if Sasuke was interested in a girl like that, then so be it. I have no problem…I think.

"Um, so where do you live…Ino," I said. I've never had to deal with awkward situations like this. Ha. I would just have to pay someone to be awkward for me. Yes, I know, I'm a spoiled bitch sue me.

"I live in the suburbs, a little town house, it's cute. I think you'll like it," Ino said. The rest of the drive was silent.

It took twenty minutes until we pulled up to a little yellow painted house. Cute. I guess, in it's own, creep way.

"Oh…it's…cute," ha! I was a perfect liar. I got out of the car and inspected it over. Ino got out of the car and popped the trunk. She pulled out a bag. The bag looked heavy too. She saw me looking at it so I guess she thought I wanted an explanation.

"I do kendo, I bring my training stuff everywhere with me," she said. Her voice was breathy, sounded tired. I waited until she moved toward the house until I took my first step. I didn't want to see to be in a hurry, but I was. I really wanted to see Sasuke.

"Here we go," Ino said as she put the key into the hole and then twisted it. The first thing I saw when I walked inside was the bright yellow paper that was placed on the walls. Wow, pretty okay for little miss sunshine.

"I hope you don't mind, my favorite color is yellow," she said as she put her kendo stuff on the mild yellow leather couch.

"Yeah, ha, I could tell," I said in sarcasm. I looked around. There was a small hallway to the left of me, probably heading to the bedrooms. Straight ahead was the double swinging doors heading toward the kitchen.

"Let me show you where you're…"

"RING!!" the phone rang. Ino quickly swayed her head toward the white phone on the small table beside the yellow couch.

"Hold that thought," she walked and picked up the cordless phone. She put it on her shoulder and waved her hand signaling for me to follow her.

I nodded my head. I couldn't help but think who was on the other line. Was it Sasuke maybe?

"Of course I'll drop by," Ino said laughing afterwards. We waked three doors down until she opened a small door. She walked in and signaled that this was my room.

"Hold on Sasuke…" she said. My breath hitched again. She was talking to Sasuke!! No fucking way! Why would he call her house? Did he want to talk to me?

"This is going to be your room," she said walking around, "This is the closet, and extra drawers for clothes," Ino walked around pointing out random stuff I probably needed to know. Was I listening? Hell no.

"That's all okay," Ino said walking out of the room talking the phone with her. She closed the door, and when the door shut, I ran over to the door and put my ear up against it. Maybe she was in the living room, then maybe I could make out what they were saying.

"Uh huh…heh…of course I'll join you then…" those were the only words I could make out. I heard her put down the phone back on the charger. I took a deep breath and walked out of the room, trying to make it look natural.

"So Ino, who was that?" I said, I sounded pathetic. I tried to make it sound natural, I fucking failed.

"Oh, it was Sasuke," she said and flipped her hair. Was that a faint sound of cockiness I heard? Hell yes.

"Oh, um, Ino, can I ask you something?" I said. I put my hands in front of me trying to make the best innocent look I could muster.

"Sure, what is it?" Ino said, sounding worried. SOUNDING worried…I never knew if she meant it or not.

"Is there something going on between you and Sasuke?" I asked. My head was down looking at the floor. I lifted my eyes and saw her through my pink bangs.

"Well, I'm not really sure. But…I can tell you that…there's definitely something going on between us. If not now, then sometime soon," she said smiling. I hated her…but I couldn't. I wanted to hit her, but I had no reason. I can't hit her if she likes Sasuke, I can't hate her if Sasuke likes her back. What's there to do?

"Oh, okay, well then…"

"It's almost five, we should be heading to the dojo," she said. I could tell she purposely cut me off. Or maybe she was just in a rush to go see Sasuke, my rush died when the phone rang.

"Oh," I took a deep breath, "I'll get my stuff," my voice was dead. My feet dragged their selves back into the room. I closed the door and put my back up against. So he makes out with me, but asks Ino out? What the fuck?!

Silently, but not to softly, I banged my head against the door. How could he do this too me? Didn't he care about me? When he kissed by cheek, was that fake too?

I no longer felt sadness, or grief. At that moment, suddenly a fire burst within me. Suddenly, I wanted to beet the shit out of something…someone. My next target of choice was…Sasuke. My fists were balled. Adrenaline was rushing through my body. My head snapped toward the bed. I grabbed my stuff and ran out the door. Ino was already at the door, smiling. Fuck. Her.

"Let's go," she said. I exited the door and looked back to see Ino locking the door. It was a bright sunny day, a regular day in L.A. I smirked to myself as we both got into the car and in twenty minutes flat we were at the dojo. I've got to admit, it was bigger then I thought it was going to be. Bamboo walls and the sounds of waterfall, it felt like I was in Japan again.

"Ino," a low voice said from behind me. I thought my heart stopped beating for a moment. Sakura, you're here for a reason, stick to that reason.

"No, I have pink hair," I said. I turned around to look into cold ruby eyes. Sasuke looked at me with his plain gaze. Even though anger ran through me, I couldn't help but melt at the sight. There he was, standing before me, in a black shirt and black sweats. What could be hotter.

"Where's Ino?" he asked as he step down from the steps he stood upon. He came closer to me and the suddenly…

"SASUKE!!" Ino shrieked behind me. Sasuke walked past me and went to give Ino a hug and a peck on the cheek…the same one he gave to me before I left. My heart was broke, no, it was torn.

"Can I watch you train?" she asked. I could see from the corner of my eye that she flipped her long blond hair. What did I have? I had short pink hair, no sense of fashion, and obviously no taste in boys either.

"I'm sorry but, I need to train Sakura alone, if you don't mind," he said. I rolled my eyes. Even though I he wanted Ino, I couldn't help but feel happy that we were going to train together alone. This guy wasn't going to leave my head so easily.

"Oh, okay then," the blonde said and let go of Sasuke. Ino walked away slowly looking at Sasuke as she walked. The smirk that was already plastered on my face grew wider. When she turned the corner Sasuke turned around and looked at me. My heart started to beat faster. No matter how many times I could tell it to stop, it never will.

Sasuke kept walking towards me, "Let's go in and start stretching,". He used his cold voice. He walked past me and went through the sliding doors leading into an empty room with shiny wood floor.

I looked around and noticed there was a gray mat already placed in the corner of the room. Sasuke walked over to it and sat down. He closed his eyes and started meditating.

"Sit," he said in a curtly manner. I took off my shoes and placed them beside his outside the room. I turned around and closed the doors so we could have quietness. The room had a sense of serenity to it, I sensed it as I walked over to the mat. My body felt sore as I crouched down and crossed my legs.

"Why are we meditating? Why don't we do some physical shit?" I said in a rude manner. Okay, so I guess I was still a little pissed off. Hell, I was still REALLY pissed off.

He relaxed a little and looked at me. I was crouched down, sitting down, but I wasn't quite meditating yet. I looked back at him.

"You have to stretch your mind, in order to stretch your body," he said. He gave me one last glance before returning to meditating. I huffed in annoyance, but did the stupid meditation anyways. After a couple minutes of awkward silence I heard him rustle around. I didn't want to move though, I was too deep into my meditation. Maybe this meditation shit isn't so bad.

"Sakura," he whispered. He moved right behind me. I didn't move, I tried not to lose focus. My mind was in a white heaven, it felt good, I didn't want to come out of it just yet. Then, unexpectedly, he touched my arm. I was pretty sure I had goose bumps just from feeling his touch.

I still wore the same thing I wore that morning, my plain white tank top and my short gray shorts that barely covered my ass. He pushed my hair aside and slowly touched his lips to the back of my neck, right where my neck connected to my shoulder. I moaned, but still didn't open my eyes. He wasn't going to win this game he was playing, I wasn't going to let him.

"Sasuke…stop…" I let out a sigh. I tried to pretend I didn't feel what he was doing, but my body begged to differ. Slowly, my mind was escaping from the white place I was meditating in. His fingers were going up and down my right arm. His left hand went underneath my tank top. My breath hitched. His hand still rose, and started to play with my bra hook.

My eyes finally opened. I looked in the mirror that was currently placed in front of us. It covered that whole wall. I looked into Sasuke's eyes, again, just like in the bathroom.

Just like in the bathroom.

I pushed away the thought, and pushed away Sasuke. I stood up and looked at him. My eyes were glaring at him, but my heart was still pounding in my chest.

"I won't let you do that Sasuke," I said, finally putting my foot down.
