Sasuke got home and walked into the large living room. Not noticing his mother sitting there, a book in her hand.
"Karen was here," his mother spoke up. It was evident she knew where he was.
"Mother," Sasuke greeted."What you tell her?"
"The truth," at this, Sasuke raised a brow.
"Which is?" He asked. Not that he cared.
"I told her you went to see your father." Mikoto put her magazine down and stood up.
Sasuke sighed, mentally thanking his mother.
"Which we both know isn't true. You went to see Sakura, didn't you?" Mikoto was always proud of her son's. And she stood behind all three men in her life. She knew Sasuke and Sakura was a match made in heaven.
"I went to see father, then I went to see Lady Tsunade. And I spoke to her, yes." With a nod from his mother, Sasuke took the chance to leave.
"If she's coming here tomorrow, I suggest you use the game room. Incase you want to bring back her memories." Was the last thing Sasuke heard before he left for a shower.
Once his shower was completed, Sasuke laid on his back.
"I'll make you remember our bond pink. You'll see." With thet he closed his eyes and drifted to sleep.
The next day Sasuke was up and ready, he had made a list of things to get on his way to school. He was now currently eating when his father came in.
"Sasuke," he greeted. Sasuke nodded.
"Father," was all he said when his phone started ringing. He checked the caller ID: Karen.
Not even blinking, Sasuke rejected the call and set his phone on the table.
"Karen came looking for you at Uchiha Inc. yesterday," Fugaku said, looking up from his newspaper. His statement had just aired and Mikoto sat down, smiling brightly.
"I just got a call from Itachi," she began. Immediately silence kicked up. "He's coming to Konoha so his fiancé may meet us." She finished.
At her last statement, Sasuke cocked on his toast. Fugaku slammed his newspaper down.
"What in the name of-" Fugaku was interrupted.
"He's your son Mr. Uchiha." She said in a stern voice. Looking at her husband. "And your brother little Uchiha." She turned to look at Sasuke.
"We will accept the girl. If she isn't up to our standards, we'll tell Itachi. But each of us will give her a chance. Got it?" Mikoto stood. She started to leave but paused.
"Their plane lands in half an hour. I'll send Min-yu to pick them up." With that the proud women of the Uchiha household left.
Fugaku looked at his son across the table.
"Don't look at me, she's your wife." Sasuke pointed out. "And that's my cue to leave. See ya'!" Sasuke stated and left. He didn't wanna' see his brother. He didn't want Itachi to know of Sakura's return. A fun day in his study ain't gonna do it, no. Sasuke would have to go public now.
"Hey, Pink." Sasuke caught Sakura in the parking lot. She obviously didn't see or hear him behind her. She looked up confused and Sasuke smirked. If only she knew how-
"Oh, morning Sasuke." She greeted. She then continued looking for something in her book.
"Yeah, our plans for this afternoon have been altered." Sasuke went round her. He now saw the two red streaks in her hair, and her makeup around her eyes. He wondered if she always did wear it like that. He then noticed it was shorter than last time. He also saw her makeup.
"We had plans?" Sakura asked, kicking Sasuke back to reality.
"Uh, yeah. Remember I told you yesterday that I'd take you home to my place after school?" He reminded her, forcing himself to look some other place than where she was standing.
"Oh, yeah. Sorry I forgot," Sakura closed her book. All her attention on Sasuke now.
"I'm still taking yo-" Sasuke was interrupted with a high squealed sound for a voice.
"Darling!" The owner of the voice threw her arms around Sasuke's waist. It was now clear to the two teens who it was: Karen.
"I missed you so much!" Karen whined. She came round and stood next to Sasuke, hooking her arm through his.
"What is it Karen?" Sasuke asked.
"That man with the silver hair is waiting for you in the office," Karen's high pitched voice sent Sakura back to her books.
"Sakura I-" Sasuke began.
"No its cool. Go. I'll talk to you interval." With that Sakura left the parking lot.
"He isn't there Sasuke." Karen started when Sasuke turned to leave. "What is it with you and that nerd? You haven't gone soft have you?" Karen stood with her hands on her hips.
"Don't toy with me like that." Sasuke's voice was a hoarse whisper now. "And no, I didn't go soft. Not that it involves you anyway." Sasuke began walking but stoped.
He turned to Karen. "She's the girl I'm going to marry," now he left to figure out how he's going to make Sakura remember. He had two weeks. Two weeks only. Heaven alone would know how he was going to get her to like him. To love him.
Sasuke knew what he had to do. Interval had started and hehad just left school premises. He was heading to the Hokage's office now.
Once he got there, he had caught the Hogake on the steps of the great building.
"Lady Tsunade!" He shouted as he ran towards her. Tsunade turned to see the young fellow who called her.
"Little Uchiha," she greeted him.
"I have an idea. But I need your help." He stated when he got there. Not wasting time to catch his breath.
"How do I help?" She asked.
"Grant Sakura and myself permission off of school for this week and next week. Please." Sasuke asked on his nicest.
"Ok, but what are you planning?" She asked skeptically.
"A road trip. To Mist. Just like we did when we were younger."
"Do your parents know?" Tsunade liked this idea.
"Not yet. I'm going there now." Sasuke answered.
"Alright. What does she need?"
"A bathing suit, clothes for seven days and shoes. A camera if she wants." Sasuke half smiled. Now just to convince his parents.
"Alright. I'll ask Binura to pack her bag. No funny business on the trip." Tsunade began to walk.
"Oh, Sasuke. Here," Tsunade reached in her pocket. She pulled out a small page. "It's the things she wanted to do when her parents were still alive." She passed it to Sasuke then left.
Sasuke nodded. He waited the the blond women was far to see then left to convince his parents.
"A road trip?" Fugaku asked. Himself, Mikoto and Sasuke had been seated in the library of the Uchiha household. Sasuke had told them everything. It was obvious they didn't like the skipping school part.
"Father, you gave me two weeks only. Let me make the mostof it. Please." Sasuke asked.
"A week." Fugaku stood up. He took Mikoto's hand. Surprise on both Sasuke's and Mikoto's face.
"What?" Mother and son asked in unision.
"One week. Then the next you'll get married." That was final and Mikoto knew that no matter what she says, he husband had made up his mind.
*Sakura's POV*
Sakura looked all over for Sasuke when interval started. She had asked Ino and she said that he'd left early. Somewhere inside of her she felt dissapointed. The end of the day Sakura made her way to where Jin-shu normally stood.
As she neared she saw Sasuke in a shorts and check shirt wich hung loose. She also noticed the change in his car. Normally he'd drive his usual black porche, but it was subtituted with an old white Minni Cooper. Model probably from the 90's.
"What do you think about a road trip?" He asked as she neared.
"To?" She asked.
"To the country of Mist. For a week. Leaving today." He set his shades on.
