AN: Konichiwa, I'm not gonna blab on like usual so here's the next chapter.
'inner Sakura'
'Sakura replying to inner''flashbacks'
School ended and as usual the whole of the school population ran out of the building and off home or to a friends house. Sakura trailed out slowly after the crowd had left to be met by all her mates and Sasuke.
"Hey Sakura-Chan were all going to Sasuke-teme's house. Wanna come with us?" Naruto asked her.
"Sure, if it's alright with Sasuke that is. I have nothing else to do anyway." Sakura replied.
"Fine by me." Sasuke said.
"That's great. Can me and Hina-Chan hitch a ride Sakura, none of us brought our car today and the rest won't let me. They keep saying I'm too distracting and nearly cause them to loose their licenses all the time. That's such a lie though, they nearly loose their licenses because they're all maniacs when driving. I'm surprised they haven't killed me yet." Naruto moaned. He then looked at all the angry glares pointed at his direction by his friends. He rubbed the back of his head and chuckled before saying "Joke"
"You don't have to worry about dieing in our cars, we'll kill you right here and now" Ino said as she cracked her fingers.
Ten minutes later Sakura, Hinata and a badly bruised Naruto all piled into Sakura's Pink Lamborghini. Sakura reversed her car and drove out of the school. Once out realisation came to her and she quickly stopped the car and looked toward Hinata.
"Erm, I don't know where Sasuke lives so would you point out the way please." Sakura asked.
"Sure I will Sakura-San." Hinata said.
"Don't be so formal Hina-Chan, we've been friends since we were 5." Sakura said
"Sorry Sakura-Chan." Hinata said. She gave a small smile. Sakura once again began to drive and Hinata pointed out the way. About 15 minutes Déjà vu came over Sakura. The streets she drove down seemed so familiar, almost as if she had been down them before. Then it hit her.
"Oh shit! Hinata what's Sasuke's address?" Sakura asked.
"24 Cherry Blossom Avenue Why do you ask? " Hinata asked. Sakura slapped her forehead with one hand.
"This so isn't fair. I have to share the same school, friends and now I find out I have to share the same road as him as well! Please kill me now" Sakura moaned. She put bother her hands over her eyes and the car instantly swivelled.
"Sakura!" Naruto and surprisingly Hinata shouted. Sakura took away her hand and looked at them questioningly. As soon as she saw their faces in utter horror she looked towards the road and realised that the car was out of control.
"Calm down. It's not like there are any other cars near by and anyway I'm not as dumb as to crash into something. I'm a highly skilled driver. In fact I'm so skilled that I've only crashed my cars twice this year. Luckily I was driving in the same car both times." Sakura said.
"Thanks Sakura-Chan, that helped a lot, to know you've crashed your car before." Naruto said.
"Your welcome." Sakura said. "By the way why have you been so silent, as far as I remember you're a loud mouth."
"I'm just happy your back. You don't know how much we all missed you. Since you left none of us were ever really the same." Naruto said
"Well I'm back and u all better get back to your old selves or else I'll hunt you down and kill you" Sakura said with an evil smirk upon her face.
"Sakura, why did you move house?" Naruto asked.
"What do you mean?" Sakura said
"Well you didn't live in Cherry Blossom Avenue before. You leaved on Kohona street. So why did you move? I didn't even know you had sold the house." Naruto said
"Oh. I couldn't handle being there, I kept seeing flashbacks." Sakura's smirk turned to a frown and Naruto could see tears welling up in her eyes, as could Hinata.
"So Sakura, what do you think of Sasuke?" Hinata asked quickly to change the topic.
"I think he's a jerk with a too big ego. I'm surprised his head fits through the doors it's that big, but I can tell he cares for you lot, so I suppose he's alright for that." Sakura answered.
' And you think he's totally hot, I know I do. I mean he's even better than Gaara-Kun and we know he was sexy.' Inner Sakura said.
'So what if he's hot, doesn't mean I like him, and don't compare Gaara-kun to him' Sakura replied to her inner. 'Now go away'
'fine I will, but each time I go away I come back more annoying' inner Sakura replied while sticking out her tongue.
"You'll soon get use to him Sakura-Chan, I know he can be a right bastard sometimes but he's an alright guy. He just doesn't like letting people get close. Especially girls" Naruto told her.
"Whys that?" Sakura asked, now concentrating fully on the road again.
"He lost his friend when he was younger. She just left him and he's had a fear since that if he lets anyone get 2 close they'll leave him to." Naruto said.
"Oh. Maybe somebody should teach him that not all people are like that." Sakura said. "Anyway were here. Hope you don't mind but were going to mine first so I can park the car."
"Ok Saku." Naruto said.
Sakura got to a large set of posh iron gates, she pressed a button that was attached to her keys and the gates slowly opened. She drove the car down the long road up to her mansion and was instantly greeted by Bernard, who opened her car door for her. Naruto and Hinata also got out of the car unknown though to the butler.
"Wow Bernard is that you, I thought you would have ran for your life years ago. The temper on Sakura, I'm even surprised you survived." Naruto said
"Naruto? Hinata? I didn't expect to see you for a long time. I knew Sakura would eventually find you but not this soon." Bernard said "And of course I'm still here. Sakura's like the daughter I never had. Somebody's got to look after her."
"Shut-up Bernard, I can look after myself. Anyway I'm going next door for a while, please park the car for me. I won't be home to late, leave whenever you wish." Sakura told him.
"Ye, now you've grown you can but you couldn't before." Bernard said. "Anyway have fun with the Uchiha family. I probably won't be here when you get back so goodnight as well." Bernard said.
"How did you know I was going to the Uchiha's?" Sakura asked.
"I knew they had a son your age, it was a simple guess." Bernard said, "Now run along."
"Ok. Thanks Bernard." Sakura said
Her, Naruto and Hinata all waved goodbye before walking down the long path out of Sakura's house and to the buzzer in front of the gate in the next house. They pressed the buzzer and waited for either a voice or the gates to open. The gates swung open and the three walked in and up yet another long path to the Uchiha mansion.
"No wonder most rich people are really healthy, these paths must keep you really healthy. This seems like the most exercise I've ever done." Naruto complained. The two girls giggled.
"God Naruto you are really unhealthy if you think this is a long way." Sakura said.
"She's right Naruto-Kun, maybe I'll have to get you on the treadmill at my house every day." Hinata said.
They finally got to the door and were welcomed by a very tall, dark haired butler who told Naruto and Hinata to go to Sasuke's room. They both nodded and began to climb the stairs, Sakura followed. After turning down many hallways they finally got to a room with Sasuke wrote on the front. Naruto barged through the door and charged over to a wide screen TV at one side of the room. Also at the TV was Sasuke, Neji and Tenten. Shikamaru was on one of the navy blue sofa's sleeping and Ino was sat reading a fashion magazine.
"I thought you drove here, why did you end up here on feet?" Sasuke asked.
"I decided to park my car at my house, after all I unfortunately live next door to you." Sakura said. At this Sasuke's eyes went really wide and he looked at Sakura to find any signs of a joke. "I'm not joking Sasuke, it's as much torture to me as it is you. Probably even more." Sakura said. After about a minute of silence Sasuke's eyes went back to normal.
"Hn" He replied before looking back at the wide screen TV and shooting an enemy with the remote control he was holding.
"Wow, you're a man of many words." Sakura said sarcastically.
"There's no point Sakura, as soon as they get caught in the game it's near impossible to get them out. I'm even surprised he realised you were here." Hinata told her.
"Hey Sakura why didn't you tell me you lived next door to Sasuke?" Ino asked.
"I didn't know until practically a second ago." Sakura said.
"How could you not know the hottest guy ever lived next door to you?" Ino asked. A moment later Shikamaru's eyes shot open and he glared at Ino. "Apart from you of course Shika-kun"
"That was clever Ino, and for your Information I've met someone well hotter and he had a great personality as well. With me at least." Sakura told Ino.
"Really? Who is it? Can I meet him? Are you dating?" Ino asked.
"Yes, he's call Gaara, no and no" Sakura replied.
"That's a bummer, why aren't you dating?"
"Because when he first asked me out I didn't want to go out with him because I didn't think I was ready, but then I sorta really wanted to after. I wish you could meet him, he's gorgeous." Sakura said.
"What does he look like?"
"He has red hair and the most gorgeous green eyes ever. He also has the best chest I've ever seen and a really tight ass." Sakura told her.
"Sounds nice, but can't possibly compare to…" A cough inturupted Ino and she looked to find Shikamaru once again glaring at her, "My Shika-kun" She finished off.
"Sure" Sakura said. "by the way can I see that magazine please Ino?"
Ino nodded and passed her the magazine. Mean while a certain raven haired guy had lost concentration in the game and was listening in on Ino's and Sakura's conversation. He was soon brought back to the game though when Tenten cheered.
"Yes I won, I finally won you Sasuke. Ha, in your face." Tenten gloated.
"Hn, whatever." Sasuke said.
"Summit wrong buddy?" Naruto asked.
"No, why should there be?" Sasuke asked.
"Because you lost and you've never lost since this game came out. Even I had given up trying to beat you." Naruto said.
"Me being beat means nothing except that Tenten's got better at the game." Sasuke told him matter of factly.
"Whatever. By the way Sasuke I've been wanting to ask you something. What do you think of Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked in a hushed voice so Sakura couldn't hear.
"She's ok, cool compared to my damb fan-girls." Sasuke replied.
"Good. Now you've said that I have a dare for you." Naruto said.
"What is it?" Sasuke asked.
"I dare you to ask Sakura to be your girlfriend." Naruto said.
"What's the point? It's obvious she'll say ye and then I'll just end up turning her into one of them air-head fan-girls" Sasuke replied.
"I bet she'll say no, infact I bet anything you want that you won't get her to be your girlfriend in a month." Naruto said.
"Fine, I accept and I bet I can get her be in less than 2 weeks, no matter what. I'll probably get her today." Sasuke said. "If I loose I'll buy you a brand new car of your choice, if I win you have to do whatever I say for two weeks. Agreed?"
"Agreed. There's another rule though, you have to go out with her for atleast a week and when you brake it off you can't hurt her or I'll kill you. I won't let you hurt her." Naruto said.
"Whatever." Sasuke said
They shook hands to settle the agreement. After that Sasuke got up and walked over to Sakura. He tapped her on her shoulder to get her attention. She looked at him with a questioning look.
"Hey Sakura, I was wondering if you would be my girlfriend, after all were both single and you're the only single girl that isn't a fan-girl and lets face it you don't want one of the fan-boys as your boyfriend and who else would like you." Sasuke said.
Sakura sat still with her mouth open staring Sasuke and didn't say a word. The whole group apart from Naruto also stood with their mouths open as Sasuke had never in his life asked any girl to be his girlfriend.
"I'll take that as a yes then, good" Sasuke said. He then turned and began to walk back to where he came from but before he could Sakura swung him around and slapped him across the face.
"You should have taken that as a no, I wouldn't be your girlfriend if I was paid to do so, and for your information I already have a guy that likes me and he isn't a fan-boy so your wrong." Sakura shouted at him. She then slapped him again and ran out of the bedroom, down the halls and out the front door.
"Clever Sasuke. Talk about an insult, if you were ready to ask someone out you could atleast be nice about it. You insulted her instead. Jerk" Ino said. "I'm going to see if Sakura's alright. Tenten, Hinata coming with me?"
"Sure" they both replied and followed.
The boys stood in utter shock at what had just happened. Sasuke, The Sasuke had just been slapped by a girl.
