Screwed Up World, A SasuSaku Fanfic.
Rated T.
KiiroIka
Summary:
In a world where Sasuke wasn't cool and cold, where Sakura was the stoic Ice Queen, Naruto and Hinata the richest, most popular power couple in the school and where Ino and Karin are actually the nice, timid girls in the scene, how do things turn out?
I do not own Naruto.
Chapter 8: Stupid Fans
Fanboys.
They've been stalking me everywhere.
Okay, so, after the time Sakura and I sassed one another, death threats rose, and I had to stop reading email on the tenth "I WILL KILL YOU" email. I was too kind to spam them. A little more after that, when Sakura apologized to me, the death threats lessened. But of course, I still got the occasional "YOU ARE SOOOO DEAD" email, but I deleted it as soon as possible.
Sakura and I have been growing closer the past two months. It's awesome, actually. Even if Sakura and I end up doing our pair work in the library since her mother banned her from going to my house.
Flashback
"She thinks you're a distraction." She scoffed.
"Me? A distraction? To you? Wow, your mom's real clueless to who I am." I laughed. Really. Me? A distraction to Sakura? I must be dreaming.
"Yeah, yeah." She said lamely.
End Flashback
The evil hater mails receded, but right now, the number skyrocketed to probably a million.
Of course, I'm exaggerating. But seriously, it's a lot. They're still going on about staying away from their Sakura-chan. Disgusting.
The worst part? Back to what I said first.
They are guys.
Oh sure, I know how it feels to totally be a fanboy (I am NOT going to tell you on what or who I fangasmed over), but I think this is a bit too much.
No, WAAAAAAAAAY too much.
I never told Naruto or anybody yet. Just Itachi. I thought I could handle them on my own.
God, and I really lost it when I found out one stalked me. Then another, then another.
I hoped that it would stop.
-x-
It was a chilly, dim morning and I decided to head to school early. I walked, guiding my bike, since I didn't want to go too fast. I wanted to enjoy the scenery.
I swear, you are so gay. Enjoy the scenery? What the hell?
'I just want to enjoy the scenery, dammit! And I wanted to go a little early so those freaking fanboys would leave me alone for a bit.'
Oh God, Sasu-poop, be a man! FIGHT FOR SAKURA'S LOVE!
'I don't need too a—wait, Sasu-poop? What the fuck?'
You're right, that's a lame name. Let me call you Sasuke Haruno instead.
'What am I, her brother?'
No, her wife! You're actually a girl who acts and dresses like a guy.
'I have a dick. It's a very good—no, great—size, actually. I AM NOT A GIRL!'
Hah. Whatever, Mrs. Haruno!
Seeing my inner wink at me makes me want to punch him. Seriously.
I stop bickering with my inner as soon as I heard leaves rustle. There were a few bushed to my right. I stop walking and stare at the bushes suspiciously. I continue walking when another rustle was heard. There was no wind. I gritted my teeth.
"Stupid fanboys, come out!" I say. In no time, five boys were out of the bush, all glaring at me.
The one in the middle—the leader of the gang, I assume—was a bit short. He had red hair and hazel eyes. The one beside him had long, bright blonde hair, like Naruto's, that was in a half ponytail. His eyes were blue like Naruto's, too. These two, I recognize—they were seniors from Itachi's class. The other three, one with spiky black hair and violet eyes, another with curly green hair and brown eyes, while the last with short pink hair and green eyes adorned with glasses.
Pink hair? Green eyes? What the hell?
'I doubt the pink hair is natural.'
"Sasuke, Itachi-san's brother." The short, red haired one said, smirking.
"Can I kill him, un?" The taller blonde exclaimed.
"Patience, Deidara. We will all have our turn." The redhead replied.
"Care to introduce yourselves, gentlemen?" I rolled my eyes and tapped my right foot impatiently. The five of them smirked.
"I am Sasori Akasuna, president of the Sakura Haruno Official Fanclub, Konoha branch!" He said, making a weird, nice guy pose and smirking madly.
"I am Deidara Kureyu, vice president of the Sakura Haruno Official Fanclub, Konoha branch!" He did the same pose as Sasori. "And Sasori-danna's right-hand man and best friend!"
"Deidara!" Sasori boked him on the head. "You ruined our act! That is not, I repeat, not part of our entrance plan!"
"But Sasori-danna!" Deidara cried.
"Ehem." I said.
"Hmph. Doesn't matter. Carry on!" He said, resuming his former pose and Deidara following suit. Seriously?
"We are Sakura!" The remaining three crouched down in front of Deidara and Sasori.
"Sakura?" I asked. Of course, I was ignored.
"Sachi!" The one with the black hair said.
"Kusuke!" The green-haired one followed.
"Rango!" The Sakura look-alike said last.
"Sachi… Kusuke… Rango…Sakura… Oh! Sa-Ku-Ra!" I said, totally ruining the mood.
"And we," all five of them chanted, "are the number one fans of Sakura-sama!"
"So, all of you are number one?" I asked, putting all of the weight of my body on my hand on the bike seat. By the way, I already set the bike stand while they were talking.
"Of course, I'm number-number one. Dediara's just number one. These three are number negative one." Sasori explained.
"D-danna! What about me?" Deidara cried again.
"Hey! I'm number-number one!" Sachi said.
"No! I am!" Kusuke followed.
"I look like Sakura-sama the most!" Rango exclaimed.
"Let's just get this over with, shall we?" I said, losing my patience.
"Agreed. We shall settle this later." Sasori had his serious face back on. "Now, we have to deal with this little rat."
Okay, rat? Wow. So insulting.
"You have no right to touch our Sakura-sama!" Sasori and the rest started to run toward me. They were going to attack me, obviously.
"Your Sakura?" I snapped. Okay, I have had enough. This has gone way too far. I don't like the way they have been treating me, or Sakura.
Rage mode!
Sachi was the first to attack. His fist was aimed at my face. I ducked and crouched and stretched my leg to trip him. Rango followed next, his foot going to my chest. I grabbed his ankle and twisted it a bit, so that he would fall down. Kusuke was a bit faster than them. His fist hit my left arm real hard and he kicked my left leg a bit harder. I let out a cry of pain until I used my back to hit him and make him tumble to the ground.
"Shit." I muttured. My left arm had a bruise while My left leg was limping a bit. I looked up to see both Sasori and Deidara coming at me, a fist from the redhead and a kick from the blondie. I managed to dodge Deidara, but he smirked and I realized their plan too late. When I sidestepped from Deidara's kick, I landed in front of Sasori. He was fast, and I received a blow on my right cheek. It was strong enough to push me down.
The five towered above me and laughed.
"That teaches you not to mess with our Sakura-sama." Sasori smirked. "You don't deserve her. Her life was perfectly fine before you forced her to apologize and totally lower her pride."
I propped myself up with my good arm. I tasted blood trickling down from my mouth to my chin, eventually onto my uniform. I let out a low growl while they watch me slowly get up.
"Your Sakura, eh?" I said. I let out a scream while I punched Sachi on the face. I delivered a blow to Kusuke's stomach and a kick to Rango's upper calf. The three of them fell to the floor. I used my elbow to hit Deidara's ribs, since he attacked me from behind. The back of my hang hit his jaws. I was able to grab Sasori's fist that was yet again aimed at my face. I twisted it and he screamed in pain. I trip him and send one, final blow to his face.
Now our faces are equally unpretty!
I stare at the five fanboys on the floor. I was panting and struggling to stay conscious.
"Sakura… She is not yours." I breathe out. I send them a death glare. "She is only trying to be a normal girl and live a normal life. She is human, too. She is not a thing!" I shout. Their faces look at me. "You call yourselves fans… You proclaim your undying love for her, yet all you do is be a burden to her. You even call her yours! Nobody owns her but her, and her alone. You stupid fools think she likes what you're doing? Not when it goes this far!
"And, so what if I don't deserve her? She chose to apologize to me. I chose to apologize to her. Respect her decision, if you really care about her. You have no idea how to really make her like you, don't you? I don't, either. But I'd start by acting nice around her and really respecting, not praising her and treating her like who she is in the business world. She is a teenage girl in High School. The fact that she stayed in school means that she still wants to be normal. Why do you think she befriends people who treat her like a normal girl? People like Naruto, Ino, Hinata… People like me."
They look at me, their eyes dazed. I started to limp away with my bike. I turn back and flash them a smirk. "If you plan on winning Sakura's heart and truly blow her away, I suggest you start cleaning your act up right now. You have a lot of competition."
I smirk even more when I realized that they were really listening.
"Besides, I am already a lot of steps ahead of you." I continue to limp triumphantly to the school. I was approximately only twenty minutes early. School's still ten minutes away, and the pain coming from my leg, my arm and my cheek are starting to be unbearable.
Stupid as it may seem, I used my bike and sped to the school. If I were to pass out—my vision is already going blurry—I would like to pass out inside the school clinic.
I feel people's stares at me as I neared the school entrance. The pain was already too much to handle. I stop right in front of the main door. I was too dizzy to count the minutes. People were staring at me. I heard gasps when I fell off my bike, making me yell in pain. My eyes were already failing me.
Before falling into the darkness, I heard one, familiar girl voice call out my name.
-x-
"Sasuke? Oy, are you awake?" I saw a blur of pink above me. I blinked a few times until my vision was cleared.
Sakura.
"Oh thank God." She sighs and falls back to her seat. I watch her intently as she looked at me. "I thought you were going to die."
"Would you miss me if I did?" I asked weakly and smiled. The pain was still there, but it was not as painful as the one before.
"Y-you wish." She blushed and looked away. I let out a chuckle.
"What happened?" I asked.
"Well, you arrived in front of the main door, bruised, dirty and a little bloody." She explained. "You fell from your bike and became unconscious. Naruto and I had to bring you to the clinic. You were out cold for two hours. The nurse treated your bruises."
"What about class?" I asked again.
"We were excused. Naruto, though as much as he wanted to, was sent back to class." She chuckled. "You could go home after the doctor clears you. Your brother was already informed."
"Oh God. I am so dead." I said. Sakura looked at me and smirked.
"The whole school knows what happened." She said as my eyes grew wide. "A student passed by you guys and took a video of the whole thing. Of course, I was the first to see."
"Whaaa—I—Oh God." I said and blushed. Sakura's smirk only grew wider.
"You so like me, Uchiha." She said, crossing her arms.
"I-I was only telling them to treat you with a little more respect, that's all." I puff my cheeks and look to the side. I heard her laugh a bit. She took my chin ad made me face her, her face inches from mine. My blush intensified tenfold.
"The boys got detention for a month." She added. "You're safe, since all you did was protect yourself.
"Thank God." I sighed. "At least I was able to give them a piece of my mind."
"Very sweet of you, Sasuke." She said, her mouth forming a straight line. "But you should have at least told Naruto or me. I bet this isn't the first and only fanboy attack."
"I thought I could handle it." I replied, getting a bit lost in her green eyes. "They've been sending me hate-mails and death threats. Some have been stalking me, but this was the first and only time they physically attacked me."
"Still!" She growled, not letting go of my chin. "You could've gotten a lot more hurt! We could have helped. We could have prevented this from happening!" Her voice was starting to rise.
"What, by letting you walk me to school every morning?" I said.
"Well by all means, why not?" She was standing up. Her eyes were filled with anger.
"Well sorry! I didn't want to burden you! The least I could get is a little bit of thank you for standing up for you back there." I retorted.
"Well I never asked you—" She yelled. She gasped for a while, probably realizing what she said. She was about to say something when someone knocked on the door. It opened to reveal the school doctor and Itachi standing behind him.
"Sasuke!" Itachi said, materializing by my side. He helped me sit up. Sakura faded to the background. "The doctor said you're all clear. We could go. Mom's waiting for us outside."
Itachi hoisted me up and we headed for the door. "Your bag's in the car. Naruto volunteered to bring your bike home after school. You need rest. Mom totally freaked out."
"Of course she did." I smirked a bit.
"You know you owe her a big explanation." He smiled.
"I know, I know." I laughed. Just as we were headed out of the door, Sakura called my name.
Well, our last name, to be exact. So Itachi and I both turned to look at her.
"Wait." She said. Her eyes were downcast, her fists were balled. "Uchiha… Sasuke, I—Thank you." She mumbled. My eyes softened and I flash her a small smile.
"No problem."
She looked pained for a while. Itachi and I left and headed for the main door.
I'M SORRY, SASORI AND DEIDARA FANS! I was trying to think of some characters, but they were the only ones who popped up in my mind *sweatdrop*
Okay, so I totally screwed up Sasori's character lulz. Hope that's okay with you because it's mighty fine with me (and believe me, I am a die hard Sasori fan).
I hope you guys enjoyed!
On to the 9th chapter! Oh, and sorry for the suckish chapter labeling. FFn doesn't allow me to put 'periods' on the chapter labeling, so I ended p putting 'point' insted. Oh well.
Heehee, til then~
