Narrative Pov
Everyone in the mini bus steer to the phone in Mebuki's hand as Sakura had confessed to what she meant, "Sakura what do you mean" Her mother whispers hurtly.
"I mean I wouldn't have to deal with this shit life! I wish you and Tou-san would have listened to me, I wish that I never met Kaito and the other bastard, I wish that I couldn't see so that I wouldn't have seen the people I know today and the building of a past that we had once taken as a family here before things were shit... I wish, that I wasn't me" She says then gasps abit as earth moves and the people in the bus look around scared, Sasuke takes the phone off of her mother and opens the bus and walks out, "Listen here Sakura, you know what I said to you was the truth and we weren't lying to each other on any day you started at school! You changed things for the better, and you have changed my family. You helped my brother when he most needed and I thank you for that, but please don't do this" he says into the phone and the girl on the otherside of the phone sniffles.
"But why, I did all that so that I could get back at Haraishi and that slut Ayumi! We were suppose to get you and Dana-chan together, she was suppose to next not me. Why did you change your mind, your exactly like those others, you promise you won't hurt and then you stab me in the back with the biggest thing in my life that happend to me! You betrayed me" She screams in the phone.

Uchiha Mansion
Since the boys plus Ino, Tenten and a very confused Hinata were in the same class during last period. They all carpull and go straight to the Uchiha mansion, not caring what was happening on the raod.
Running straight into the house they all go straight for the court yard trying to find a pink haired girl and find out some answers.
"Wow, it's been a long time since I have seen you-" Mikoto says looking to Ino, Sasuke stops his mother "Kaa-san where is Sakura"
"Well dear she is in her room-" Straight like that they all follow Sasuke to where her room was and barg right through to find Sakura on Itachi's lap and he was trying to teach her a few chords to the guitar he baught from the music shop.
Ino gaps at the sight, Sakura blushes and looks confused to all the people in the room and looks to the man behind her.
"What the hell is going on here" Sasuke asks confused, Sakura moves off of the eldest son and sits away from him before answering, "Your brother was teaching me some chords, I learnt how to play the gutair when I was like 4 and stopped when I was 7 when I started going to Dance camp, who are your friends" The pinkette stutters and blushes, Ino pushes past Sasuke and sits next to Sakura who moves back uncomfortable.
"Well I am Ino Yamanaka, the rest you don't need to worry about. Though, what we need to know is, is it true you are the girl that I danced with at said Dance camp. Also, could you tell me if it is true you dated Kaito and Hairaishi" The blonde blurts out fast holding the pinkettes shaking hand, "Ino give the girl some space" Shikamaru says but the blonde ignores him.
"Wwait, Ino. As in the girl who helped me with Ayumi, the one who thought that a plea was a french type of shoe that was expensive?" Sakura asks the girl infront of her that cracks up laughing, "Wow, you really are her" Ino says and Sakura looks at her amazed.
"Omg it's so good to see you! I think that the last time I went was like 9 and got a studio in Suna, they said you got into a place straight after that one time in camp. Didn't you have a friend with you... Tenten, she was really pretty to, plus she was the reason why I am a good fighter today" The pinkette says and Tenten pushes past Neji and goes next to Ino, "OMG! Really, well in that case I am said girl Tenten, boy you really know how to get a name round really fast like back then. Plus, I bet half of the time it wasn't your fault" The brunette says and Sakura nods.
"So wait Sakura-chan you really dated Hairaishi" Naruto asks the Pinkette, she looks to him and nods. The blonde dramatically faints, Sakura sweatdrops.
"Uhm... Sorry to be rude, but why are you all in here anyway" She asks looking to all the people in here, "Well we wanted to know the gos on you and Senpai, if so I highly approve!" Ino says looking to the two who suddenly cough out of shock.
"WWWWWaaaiiiittt WHAT!" Both of them say, "No Ino you have got wrong! I would be dead now if it was true!" Itachi explains shocked, the blonde groans.
"But you both were suppose to be like this cute undercover people" she says and Sakura looks wide eyed to Itachi then to the blonde, "That aside are you really the Ex's of Haraishi and Kaito" Sasuke asks and the pinkette raises her eyebrows to him.
"I'll tell you if, if you tell me the rumors are true that you are the one that triggered off some sticky stuff at Suna" The raven haried boy nods confidently and the pinkette laughs, "Hah, good then yes I am. Hairaishi is an asshole and I am happy that he got some payback for all the shit he does, the bastard needs more dealt with him. As for Kaito, well he was the good guy. Even though he's like your guys rival now that he is basketball captain and all" She explains and the guys look at her shocked.
That next monday
During the weekend Sakura avoided any of the boys questions they wanted answered from her, she noticed that whenever she was near Fugaku or Mikoto they would try so hard to ask her more and more questions about her Ex's.
Sakura was turned into the fast BFFL to Ino and the other girls, she got along with them and she liked that none of them asked about her Ex's since they already knew about them. Not that she was too suprised about that, both Suna and Konoha were rivals. Though not everyone was against it, just the pigheaded guys who only want to win.
Monday morning Sakura wakes up and looks to the side of her to her uniform, 'Great were re-starting a new school and people already know about us, hopefully that guy we saw on the plane will be our teacher?' Inner Sakura says and only hopes for the best.
Walking downstairs all fresh and excited-ish for school, going to the dinnig room she sees all the Uchiha's up and having breakfast.
"Morning Sakura, you look excited for today" Mikoto says laughing abit, the pinkette smiles brightly to her "Well Mikoto-chan, you see there alot of things that have to be straightend out and plus I have gotten on well with Ino and the girls. I'm happy that I met people before even going, because first days of school always suck when your like the outsider" she explains and Mikoto nods knowing the feeling.
After breakfast she and Sasuke go in his mercedes benz and drive off to the school.
"When you mean straighten out, what do you mean" Sasuke asks, "It means that if you've rumors of me then most of them are true, nice, try asking about Kaito and the other. But I'm not ready to tell you or your homies anything about them yet, I actually want to get through my first day" She explains and Sasuke scoffs 'Good luck with that'
At the school
Ino stands near her car with Tenten as the other boys come to stand near them, "So what are use going to do to her today, because word of advice to you idiots. She isn't going to tell any of you the time of day with that subject if that's all your going to ask of her" The blonde says and they shrug.
"Ino she needs to understand that she is in Konoha now, she needs to drift to this corner. Plus if she wants revenge on that stupid Football team then we can help her with that because that's what good school peers we are" Kiba tells her and she scoffs, "Please, tell that to someone who doesn't know you" Tenten says laughing.
Driving through the front entrance the guys move and out to the side to Sakura who smiles to them all, "Morning everyone" she says with deciving smile to the boys.
"Lets go, we need to see which classes they have stuck you in. Hopefully your in ours, its really basically just gos and tell class. Were all placed in the same homeroom classes and last period classes for some weird reasons that our families decided to put us all together" Ino explains and Sakura nods, the boys following behind them.
"Hey so teme, did you get anything?" Naruto asks and the raven haired boy shakes his head, "Wow so she really won't say anything yet, well I guess it is plan b then" the blonde says and the raven haired boy smirks, "Starting to feel sorry for her already" Shikarmaru says and Kiba nods.
Walking towards the office she noticed that nearly every person at the preson that she walked pass, they would glare at her. What she thought was that they were just jealous because she was with Uchiha's and there people, well that's what Ino says to Sakura.
"So first impression" Ino says to Sakura and she scoffs, "It reminds me of a more posh version of Suna, not so suprising that I get glares. That is a norm, it annoys me but you get use to it" she explains and Ino nods.
Walking in the office she sees shizune with a pig on the counter resting, the women looked very tired and worn out. Probably a late night drink with Tsunade who passed out in her office with 3 bottles of Sake on her desk. Ringing the bell Shizune raises up and coughs off the awkward-ness.
"Girls, how may I help" She says rubbing her eyes, Sakura looks to the women with concern, "Uhm, I'm new and I was wondering if I could have my schedule" Sakura explains and looks to Ino who shrugs.
"Oh right, we haven't had a new student in along time. Haruno Sakura right, your father mentored me before I went into school with Tsunade-sama. I am Shizune, the nurse and assistant to the principal of this... fine school. You are lucky, since you are staying the Uchiha's, Uchiha-sama asked for you to be in the same homeroom and lst period as Sasuke-san. So it shouldn't be no trouble for Ino-san to show you out and about" Shizune says and Sakura looks shocked to the women, 'So how many people does the old man know now!' Inner says and Sakura doesn't find the words to reply back.
"Thank you Shizune-sensei, have a good day" Sakura awkwardly says back with a smile, "Ok, bye girls" She says before hearing her name being called from the principal's office.
"Was that seriously the smell of Sake in the office!" Sakura asks the blonde confused, she nods "Don't be so suprised, that is the principal's office. It has its own things different to the main admin office, its on the otherside of school. This office is basically for the wannabe losers who want to get into trouble, its the office that the boys regular hang out space because they don't know how to control there girly emotions when they get picked on by someother idiots" Ino says before Kiba comes behind her, "Please most of the time its because the guys here are assholes and if I don't remember correctly Ino, Shikamaru served someones ass because that visiting senior from some reform school groped your ass" he exlpains to her and Sakura gaps.
"Well good on Shikamaru, I would have kicked the shit out of him if he did that to me!" she says and they stop off at a class and walk in, the others already inside and sitting with other students, "Well this is our homeroom, nothing to special but our homeroom teacher is always late with some horrendous excuse" Ino says sitting to the back, before long a red head goes behind the blonde.
"Move blonde your going towards my seat" Karin says and Sakura looks to her with a look, 'wtf is her problem!' she mentally tells herself.
"Geez Karin calm your periodic farm, I understand your bipolar is on a height today but understand that, that seat is and always has been mine since the start of the year. So go to your little wannabe groupies and talk about how your new nose job will turn out and how big your next boob job will be" Ino says and waves a bye-bye to her and the red head turns and walks off before stopping to look at Sakura.
"Wow, Haruno Sakura. Of all people, I wouldn't pick you to be a posh school girl. From the rumors going around you really are a sport slut" Karin says and Sakura smiles to her, "So this is Karin Hozashi, in the flesh. Amazing, you know if you wanted to get the job done right. You don't go to a cheap corner doctor to botch you, you go to a place where you actually have things done right. Or are the rumors of you owning a corner of a street true" Sakura asks and Ino laughs out, Karin scoffs to the girl, "I would watch what you say to me Haruno, your not the only person with a big mouth I have dealt with" she says, Sakura laughs
"Is that suppose to be a threat, look sweetheart I don't have time for people who don't have the balls to fire back. You may look "Fierce" as people say, but deep down your just a attention seeking little girl. Maybe daddies wallet will help you fill the void neh?" Sakura says before sitting next to Ino, "You really are firecracker" Kiba says and Sakura just rolls her eyes.
"She reminds me of this girl from Suna, bitchy and so narcasstic. I don't like bullies, plus she was getting on my nerves" The pinkette explains and Tenten pats her shoulder, "Don't worry Sakura-chan, you get use to her" she says and Sakura groans.

His pov
Sitting in my own office I look to the side to see a photo of me, Mebuki and Sakura when she was 4. She's on my shoulders as we walk down town in Konoha, we were on vacation and Sakura was eating a pork bun.
Sometimes I wonder what my daughter does half of the time, the last time I talked to her was three months ago. I haven't had the guts to talk to her lately because of some up coming news, I want to ask her an important question... But, I fear the answer she will give to me.
"Mr Haruno, Miss Harold is here to see you in the conference room" The reception girl says, I nod to her and thank her.
Before going off I think of Mebuki, she was the first person who ever understood me. She didn't make fun of hair, only thought it was so magnificant.
Even though she was a tough stubborn women, I liked that about her. She stood up for herself and she would always be there for the people she loved.
Worst of all, is that I don't even feel like me. My dearling partner now made a bet on me and I lost, to make matters worse! It was to dye my pink hair a normal colour!
It was the only thing that symbolised what my daughter got from me, now here I was with Black hair and eyebrows... Man if Sakura saw me, she would be angry.
I don't want to add anymore feul to her anger that she gets now adays like Mebuki said, she was getting a habbit of having when her stupid partner was around. Though I'm not blaming my daughter for not liking the guy, heck I even persuaded her to beat him for me!
With Sakura
It was nearly half way through homeroom time and our sensei wasn't in the classroom yet, don't get me wrong. I'm saying im dis-liking it! It's just so uncommon to have this happen!
"Don't worry about it Sakura-chan, that baka is always late. You get use to it, plus the only interesting thing that happens around here is the sports announcments and anything else other than this" Tenten says and Sakura sweatdrops, "Wow, not complainning that much. But the last teacher I had that was late was when she was like only ten minutes late, some poor person was wedged up the flag pole at the back of the school showing the highway" The pinkette says and the bun headed girl giggles.
"So, Haruno. Wanna explain to us now" Kiba asks with a sly smile, Sakura smiles back angeliclly "Well Inuzuka, maybe another time when your not drooling and soiling yourself to death" She says back and the brown headed teen just scoffs and turns around.
"Hey Ino isn't there like auditions for the cheer team today?" Naruto asks and Ino looks to him confused, "Yeah, why do you care?"
"Well because we want the right people to be cheering and supporting us on our games!" the blonde says back and Ino just rolls her eyes, "Your auditioning for the team right Hinata-chan" he asks the shy girl who was blushes slightly.
"Mmaybe nnot this yyear" She stutters out, Ino looks to her determined "You can so do it! Since I am captian and your best friend, I can get you in. Plus you would be the best person for our squad Miss flexible and everything else" Ino says slyly and Hinata blushes brighter.
"Hey Sasuke, what did Tsunade-sama ask you yesterday. Were we caught?" A guy in the basketball team asks and the raven haired boy who was bored looks to him and just scoffs, "Please, it was easy for me to shut them up. Piece of cake" he says and a girl with brown hair walks through with violet eyes.
Everyone not noticing that the boy was looking at her as she goes to sit directly next door to Sakura.
"Hi, you must be new. My name is Sarutobi Dana, I'm the coaches Neice" Says the girl and Sakura smiles to her and shakes her hand, "Hi nice to meet you, my names Haruno Sakura" she says back and the girl goes wide eyed.
"Really, wow that is so cool. I heard you wipped the floor in your dancing competitions in Suna, your like my idol!" Dana says and Sakura blushes abit.
'Well would you look at that! I think we have two plans for this girl' Sasukes inner says and he looks away from the two and smirks evilly out the window
'Good morning Students and welcome to another day at Konoha Industries High, I am Horaku Daisy and I am here to tell of the biggest news today. It seems that next week we have our first basketball game of the season! Can get an applause in this building' A girls voice says and theres cheers around the whole room and clapping of the boys shoulders.
'Our first determined game of the season and we are up against Konoha Boys Academy' she says and there were boo's to the projected screen in the middle of the class, 'But why the heck are we even worried for! From what I hear, history is repeating itself here in T KIPS! Our new captian for our prestigeous Basketball team is none other than Uchiha Sasuke! Now that deserves a major screaming!' The girl says with a dreamy look on her face.
Sasuke rolls his eyes as Naruto goes to coo and pinch his cheek.
'So we have no need to worry that our school will wipe thier pride when we win and go on to the regional finals and the nationals!' She says with pride in her eyes, 'Anyway aside from our major, hot, adorable basketball captian. We have news that a competition for the National dancing competion is going to held at the Uchiha Theatre and Arts in less than 3 months time and our school is going to be the host of it. Considering it is apart of the Konoha Industries company, we have to basically help. Any students who would like to participate in the competition with any kind of genre of dance then please come and find me today straight after the cheerleading auditions, that are in the schools big gym. Also any students who wish to help to cater at the big event will get community service hours and a great recommendation for when you apply for college;' The girl says before smiling to the camera
'Ok that seems to be the last results of our morning announcments, I am Horaku Daisy and that is the end of our morning announcments' And the screen goes blank.
After it turns off the door turns to open, then a lost cause walks through the door.
"SENSEI YOUR LATE AGAIN!" They all scream, Sakura looks around scared half to death that they all screamed.
"Well my students why are you fretting for, I have you all next anyway so there was no rush. Also it's nice to see you Sakura" Kakashi says and they all look to her confused and she just shrugs.
3 Period - Gym with Asuma-sensei and Kuranei-sensei
After putting on the gym uniform that she was given that morning, she walks out and laughs at something that Dana had said.
Dana, Hinata and Temari a student who was boarding from Hisoka High was in their class.
Tenten and Ino were in their Economy class with Naruto, Neji and Shikamaru who spent the whole class sleeping in.
Sasuke and Kiba were also in the gym class, which Sasuke hated. Becasue it happend to have nearly most of the fan girls in, though luckily Kuranei was the teacher of the girls. If any were so focused on him, they would be dead by the end of the lesson.
"So Sakura-san, I was wondering if you have the fan girl infection" Dana asks as the go for a warm up run aorund the outside soccer turf, "What do you mean infection?" Sakura asks confused and Kiba appears out of no where with Sasuke.
"Come on grannies your like on your first and were on our last lap" Kiba says and Temari punches him to the ground and carries on with Hinata, "Kiba your really an idiot" The blonde says and carries on running with Hinata who looks at him with a concerned look on her face.
"Hey Kiba-kun, maybe next time you might wanna lay off on the flirting and focus on that final lap you say your on! Oh, and hi Sasuke-kun" She says smiling generally to him, Sasuke however tries so hard not to do anything stupid so he grunts back to her and pushes Kiba back on the floor before running off.
Sakura on the other hand looks at him like he was stupid, she finally understood what the fan girl infection was. The youngest Uchiha was shirtless and could see nearly all the girls behind them covered in sweat and on the ground trying to catch their breathes with what looked to be blood coming out of their noses. Though that didn't stop Sakura from oggling at the Uchiha's manlyness.
"So you do have it! omg and I thought you were different!" Dana says as they carry on, "Don't blame me! Blame the idiot thats running around shirtless! You have to admit that the man is good looking, but thats all I would think. He is hot and has abs. I would admit it to him too, im sure he knows it considering the asshole wears no shirt" She explains and Dana laughs at her.
"You Haruno Sakura are a breath of fresh air, I think I'm going to stick to you" She says and Sakura scoffs, "Thanks for the invitation" the pinkette says and they run off to where Kuranei was giving directions to where she was telling the already finished runners to set up the tennis stuff.
"Ok girls, since you both are the next lot finished then you can start on doing Tennis. Dana can show you anything if you don't know how to play Sakura, as Dana is our school champion as well as Hinata. After half of the period we will do a round robin with the boys as well" Kuranei explains and the girls nod.
With Sasuke
Sasuke had finished putting up the final tennis net in place with Kiba and grabs him a good racket and goes to practice with him.
"So dude I caught you looking at Sakura and Dana, though which one were you looking at cause I wanna dib on one of them. You choose who" Kiba says going to pick up some of the balls, then he feels a wack to his head and he looks around to see Sasuke glaring at him and grabs the ball that was rolling back in his direction.
"What makes you think I was looking at them idiot and why are you always so sexual for" Sasuke asks and Kiba rubs his head and scoffs to the raven headed boy before grabbing the ball, "Che, if you wanted them both then you could have said asshole. Plus I am a man Sasuke, I acutally get urges! I should be worryed about you more than I thought about worrying about hooking Neji and Shikamaru up, they are fine with finding themselves a lady. But at your rate, your balls are going to shrivel up and you'll die a hermit!" Kiba says and Sasuke glares at them as Dana and Sakura walk up to them.
"Do you mind if we share with you?" Sakura asks them and Kiba saddles up next to her and smiles, "Of course Sakura-chan, but theres a price of a kiss and telling us of your lovely ex's" He says back before another ball was hit to his head.
Kiba glares back to the raven haired boy and goes to wack another to him, before Sasuke rebounds it back and it hits his leg.
"Che, you asshole" he mutters as he rubs his leg, the girls giggle to their antics.
"You go by Sasuke, Dana-chan and i'll stay here and laugh at this idiot" Sakura says and Dana runs over to where Sasuke was, the male tryed hard not to steer at her run. But she caught him and she slightly blushes.
'Che and she says she doesnt have the infection' Inner Sakura says and she rolls her eyes.
With Itachi
Sitting at home lonely and by himself, he thinks to himself what would have been different if he decided to stop being a business person like his father.
He would probably be washed of away from his parents, his brother would most likely be in prision for his temper, he would most probably be living in the 2 story apartment that Deidara, Hidan, Kakuzu and Kisame lives. He would probably working in a small bar and play gigs with the band, and probably end up with some washed up girl that cheats on him.
Even though that life would be tragic, he thinks of it as a better life than the one he was living in now.
Then he thinks of that time at the house at lunch when Sakura and him were eating.
- Flashback -
"Neh Itachi-san, so are you going to Nagato-kun's welcome back party? I was invited to by the two but I don't think your parents will allow me, but if you go maybe they will say yes. So if I ask you to come will you?" Sakura asks him as she eats the cabonara, Itachi looks to her and looks skeptical, "I am not sure Sakura-san, as for my parents. Well I am not to sure that they will allow if you go, I am not sure if I want to myself. I guess maybe, it would be nice to catch up with Konnan and Nagato" He says and Sakura smiles up to them.
"Thats good, its so sad I couldn't go to their wedding. I bet it was beautiful" She says and Itachi just scoffs in his head.
'Such a dreamer this one' he thinks to himself.
- Flashback over -
'I wonder if shes going to be there' Itachi says to himself and turns to looks at a photo of him and his family
'I will never let my brother down' he says again and remembers how adorable his stupid foolish brother was when he was little.
