Subject: The most confusing day ever.

.

.

Ah, Tsu-chan, this day was so... confusing!

First I went to school really early because I was so curious about Sasuke. Anyways, I curled my hair, put on some very nice make-up and got dressed really nice too. Hinata came pick me up and she asked:

"Why dressed so nice? Today is the day Sasuke realizes his secret dream."

"I just want him to see what he lost." that wasn't totally true but...

"Anyway, have you heard? Yesterday we did a small party to celebrate the succes of the play and, Shikamaru confessed to Ino! He planned the whole thing! They're together now."

"Lucky Ino. Like hell would Sasuke confess to me. Itachi, then? Impossible."

Hinata is the only one, besides you that knows about my thing for Itachi.

"Hmmm. I wish I had Shikamaru's courage. I can't even talk right when I'm near Naruto."

We were already at school, and Naruto came behind and asked:

"What? I heard my name! What is Hinata-chan saying about me?"

"Ah... Ah... N-nothing, N-Naruto-k-kun!"

I smiled at them. They were so cute! I didn't want to go to classes, really. There was so much on my mind. And besides, we only had the first two classes. Then came the 'Student of the Year' ceremony and then after that we could go home. Most people didn't even come.

I went to the arts room to get a little peace and quiet and when I opened the door, I saw Sasori and Deidara leaning over a table, blushing and nearly kissing. I'm not really an yaoi fan, but... That kinda looked hot. They quickly parted, blushing even harder. I just blurted out:

"You two are gay, right?" That was so not sweet and cute.

Deidara began to choke (I don't know on what) and Sasori began to bang his head on the wall. He does that when he's under extreme pressure and doesn't know what to do.

"It's useless, danna. Look, Saku. we're gay. And we like each other. But... we're not ready to come out in the open just yet so could you please just keep it a secret?"

"Sure... But, how... How did you know you like each other? How did you two know it's right?" I asked them the questions that I always asked myself.

Sasori stopped banging his head on the wall and looked at me. He simply deadpanned all my thoughts:

"You don't know who you love. Itachi or Sasuke. Sasuke has always been a constant factor in your life and you have always liked him, but then came Itachi. At first he was simply the meanie older brother, but then you got to know him and you fell for him and now you don't know what to do. And it also adds up that they're brothers."

I broke into pieces. I sat on a nearby stool and began crying so hard that the stool itself shook with my sobs.

"I feel so dirty! It's not fair! Sasuke was always there and everything was always right. I loved him and he was always dear Sasuke-kun. But then came Itachi-kun! He teased me and annoyed me, then he ignored me, and from the last year on he has been a nice person and a good friend. And now that Sasuke's gone, he's charming and full of double meanings! I can't understand! What should I do? And how the hell did you find out? It was supposed to be a secret!"

"Ah, well. I know you better than you yourself, Sakura. There was even a time, before I discovered in which way my taste goes, that I liked you."

"If you know me better than myself, please tell me what to do!"

"That I won't do. It's your life and you need to make the choices, not me. Besides, in the end, remember what you always told me."

I smiled at Sasori.

"Even though you did wrong, if you know you did wrong, you can always fight to make things right again." I said. It was what I always told Sasori when he screwed up and he ran to me, scared about what he did.

I got up and made a decision.

"Sasuke messed up. And it's not the first time he chooses another girl over me. I have always loved him, but it's time to change. Maybe... Maybe I should try and give Itachi-kun a chance."

Deidara smiled at me and Sasori nodded.

"I'll leave you two to your... activities."

I left the arts room and headed to the bathroom to fix myself up. Then I headed to the auditorium. Sasuke was there. He was alone, sitting there.

"Hey, why are you so sad? aren't you finally going to be Student of the Year?" I asked.

"I'm not."

"What?"

"I... I broke up with Karin. And... and she told the teachers all about how I used her influence to get more votes for me and therefore I was rejected and they're giving the prize to the second place."

"Why did you do that?"

"Because I love you, Sakura. I love you and I wasn't going to stand being with Karin any longer. She's right. I only used her influence to get more votes. I admit that I didn't love you from the beginning, but recently... recently I've realized how much you've grown in my heart. Please be my girlfriend."

He kissed me and... I didn't put up any resistance. I even kissed him back! And... It felt so wrong! I felt nothing! No spark, no desire... Nothing! But I always loved Sasuke! Wasn't it supposed to be the happiest moment of my life? Wasn't it supposed to be right?

Right?

Please, Tsu-chan! Even though I'm supposed to be happy... I feel so miserable! I feel so dirty! Please tell me what should I do! And what's worse is that everyone is happy for us! Hinata, Naruto, Ino, Shikamaru, Gaara, Matsuri, Tenten, Neji... But, what made me feel worse was that when Deidara and Sasori found out, Deidara told Sasori:

"Poor Itachi."

And Sasori looked at me like he does when I'm doing something wrong, I know what I'm doing is wrong and yet I do nothing about it.

I'm crying right now. And finals are coming and I have to study and after finals comes the prom.

My day began so good. And it ends so bad.

Love always,

Sakura.

Saku, what in the hell is going on! Now, I'm just as confused as you are. I thought that you were gonna confess to Itachi and then Sasuke kisses you, now you and him are a couple, and your friends are happy with this! My brain is starting to overload right now, from to much information. I think I'm going to pass out.

Yo.

So I finally have a chance to talk to the infamous Sakura-chan. Sorry but I sort of read the email you just sent to Nade. She is currently passed out from processing what you just told her and from studying for our test tomorrow. If you haven't guessed who this is by now, maybe I should tell you. Or not. Kidding. This is Kakashi. Don't worry I haven't read any of your other emails. I'm pretty sure that if I would have, Nade would kill me. Don't ask how she will find out, she just has a way of knowing these things. Anyways, I'm not sure on how long she will be unconscious for, but I thought that you deserved a response. I'll suffer the consequences of her fist later.

Sakura-chan, as a teenager you are bound to make mistakes and as your make you make your way into adulthood you need to learn from these mistakes so that you can become a better and more mature person.

I thought you would have confessed to Itachi too, but you didn't. Poor him. I'm not trying to judge you, but I'm just giving you my advice from an outsider looking in and not knowing the entire situation.

I think that deep down you let your old feeling for Sasuke take over what you knew was wrong. That's why you accepted being his girlfriend and kissed him. You want to experience the thing that you used to think was impossible and it has clouded what you had already made up in your mind when you talked to your friend. I think you said his name was Sasori.

Also, have you truly ever thought of why Sasuke suddenly likes you. From this email, I'm guessing that Sasuke and Itachi are related. If you and Itachi were spending time together, maybe Sasuke was jealous. Sometimes when men see something that is theirs being taken away from them they tend to claim what is theirs to keep it out of reach from everyone else. Trust me, I know this from experience. ;-). I think that before you allow things to go any further you need to find out if he really is going out with you because he loves you or if its to keep you from loving Itachi. Then you need to reexamine your feeling for both of them. Are you with Sasuke to fulfill some long time dream or do you truly love Itachi. If you know deep down that something is wrong, then why do you keep doing that wrong thing? Hopefully, once, you are able to answer these questions truly to yourself you will know what to do.

Ugh. I wrote too much. Well I have to go and take care of my Nade and finish reading Icha Icha Paradise. Did you know that they making are movie for it?

Kakashi,

P.S.- Could you put in a good word to Nade for me. I really don't want to get hit.

Subject: The best advice in my life.

Tsu-chan,

WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU MARRIED WITH KAKASHI YET?

Those were the most enlightening words of my entire life! I am only writing to you now, one week after the email you sent me because I spent this entire week with Hinata, Ino, Tenten and Matsuri in a special onsen. It's a gift to Ino for her birthday. We made an agreement: we would only leave the place when we were at peace with ourselves. We talked a lot and purified ourselves. You see, everyone of us have problems with men and we talked and talked and I told them Kakashi's wonderful advice. Results: Hinata decided to suck it up and tell her feeling to Naruto; Matsuri decided to put Gaara against the wall: if he wanted to date her or not; Tenten was also going to confront Neji and ask him if he was going to get over Hinata and look at her; Ino was going to tell Shikamaru that she needs some time and I am going to break up with Sasuke. I have made an extreme decision. Sasuke was an old love that I cannot forget, but Itachi also does not leave my mind. So, after the tests that are beginning tomorrow, I'm going to spent the vacation in Konoha. I am staying there to take my mind off of Suna and the Uchiha brothers. Maybe spending some time in a different environment with different people will help me clear my mind.

Only the girls and my parents know this. I don't want to see them. (Itachi and Sasuke)

So now I am going to ask you: is there any room in your house for me?

If there aren't any rooms I can sleep in your room with you! Yay! We'll have a huge sleepover! And I want to meet Kakashi and thank him for his wonderful advice. And, Tsu-chan, let Kakashi off the hook, ok? For me? He was so cute! I think you have a lovely man. And he was calling you MY Nade! MY! Awe... It's so Moe!

P.S.: About Ino, she's confused because she's kinda liking Sai. Remember, I told you about him. He's the one who did Sweeney Todd in the play.

YYYAAAAAYYYY! I am so happy that you are coming to Konoha! I can't wait! I was actually telling the gang that we should go to Suna, but since you are coming here that make it even better. You are more than welcome to stay with Kakashi and me. We have a couch with a bed inside of it and you can sleep in my room while I take the couch. We'll have so much fun! I can show you my fighting moves from my Naginata class. You can meet all of my friends. And since you are 17 we can go to all the hot clubs, because 17 is the legal age out here for clubbing and drinking. We can even have a huge girls night out with Anko, Kure and Shizune. Hey if you want you can also invite Ino, Hinata, and Matsuri to come to. I'm sure that Kure and Shizune have space for them to.

By the way, I'm sooooo sorry that I passed out from your last email; it was just to much information to process at the time. And don't worry I've haven't beaten up Kakashi for responding for me. I actually agree with what he says. His advice was so sweet to you that I gave him a reward. I cooked all of his favorites and gave him my famous back massage that he loves. Lol. Lets just say that he was one happy camper and he went to brag to Genma about it. Now Genma is jealous.

You see, when I was in middle school and high school I took a massage therapy class and those two would always be my practice dummies. So every now and then if they did something really sweet and nice that would be their reward from me.

I'm so sorry that all of you girls are going through something. I just hope that everything turns out good for you all.

Kashi and I aren't married yet, because we haven't confessed to each other.

I also realized that I never finished the rest of my email to you about when I said you'll never guess what happened. It is part of the reason why things feel awkward between us right now. I'll start of from where I last left off at with that email.

Here it goes:

"I can't take this anymore, I'm sick and tired of him always over here. I'm sick of him spending time with you. And I'm sick of not being able to do any of the things that he is able to do to you!"

I knew that he was going to explode. So I figured that I should probably tell him that Dan is gay.

"Kashi, you see Dan..."

"Dan this, Dan that, that's all I ever hear from you now."

"But you don't understand."

"No Nade, you don't understand, but I'm going to show you.."

The next thing I knew, Kashi grabbed me by the waist and then he...

Kissed me.

But it was on my forehead and he still had his mask on.

My jaw dropped. I could see his anger leaving him and his playful side coming back. I did not believe that he just did that. I really thought he was going to kiss me on the lips, hell I would have settled for a kiss on the cheek. My face was way past red and I struggled to get out of his arms. Until, I finally exploded at him.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?"

"Isn't it obvious?" he said nonchalantly

"WHAT'S OBVIOUS?"

"I'm marking you" he sighed

"MARKING ME! ARE YOU INSANE!"

He just shrugged his shoulders in response. And that made my anger escalate.

"MOST GUYS WOULD GIVE A GIRL A PASSION MARK OR THEY WOULD KISS THEM SENSELESS! THEY WOULD NOT KISS THEM ON THE FOREHEAD! WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM KAKASHI!"

"I already told you I was tired of you talking about and spending all of your time with Dan." He said.

At this point, he still wouldn't let me out of his arms. I guess a part of him knew that once I got out he was going to get the beat down of his life. I mean how could he play around like that. Wait did he say he did this because he was tired of Dan.

"YOU IDIOT!" I yelled

"What?"

"YOU HEARD ME! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THIS JUST TO GET BACK AT DAN! ARE YOU THAT SPITEFUL TO USE ME LIKE THAT!"

"Wait Nade you got this wrong. I didn't do that to be spiteful, I did it because-"

"OUT OF ALL THE THINGS TO DO, YOU KISS ME ON THE FOREHEAD! IF YOU HAD LET ME FINISHED EARLIER YOU WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT DAN IS GAY! BUT NO YOU HAD TO KEEP CUTTING ME OFF AND-

"Dan is gay!" He yelled. He was shocked at this point. And part of my anger came down because of his shocked look. And held me at arms length.

"Yes he is"

"So you guys are just friends?"

"Duh! That what I have been telling you all of this time." I should have noticed that change in him at that point to know he was about to do something else but I kept on with my rant.

"But nooooo. You being the complete idiot that you don't believe me and you decide to –"

My words were cut off instantly to the sweet taste of two lips on mine. And no they weren't masked lips. These were actually two wonderfully sinful lips on mine. He was devouring my mouth and I was in a semi state of shock, until I felt he tongue slowly parting my lips to seek mine. I started to respond to his kiss. I could feel all of his passion in his kiss. I felt his arms bring me into a tighter embrace and then

"NADE I NEED YOUR HELP!" yelled Genma as he busted through the front door and making his way towards the kitchen where Kashi and I was.

We quickly pulled apart and regained ourselves before he notice what we was doing.

"NADE! I need you to help me ask Shizune out!" Genma whined. Not noticing that Kashi and I had just kissed

"Shut up Genma! I'll help you if you stop bugging me." I turned to look at Kashi to see if his mask was still off. I was so caught up in our kiss that I forgot to look at his face again. Unfortunately he pulled it up during Genma's invasion.

And ever since then, there has been a bit of awkwardness between us. He hasn't confessed to me nor have I confessed to him, but for the past 2 weeks he would either ignore me or he would surprise me with kisses and loving touches.

Its confusing the hell out of me. Maybe when you get out here you can help me with this.

I can't wait until you get here

Tsunade

P.S- Would you like for me to pick you up at the airport?

P.P.S- Since Genma's invasion, him and Shizune have been out a couple of times and now they are dating.
