A/N: Sorry for the long delay. We are getting closer and closer to older years. Yay! Note: For this story I will take requests for short one-shot scenarios. I will take multiple ones from one person, but just make sure they involve Epic Fails. Also I would prefer you send some while they are younger before they are older. They MAY NOT include: First Kisses, First Sex, Asking Out (successful), Or a Scenario that runs through multiple chapter (like a character going on extended leave). If I missed something I will tell you in your request if I can do it or not (if it overruns with my own I will ask you to change something around). PLEASE Request! Sorry if I didn't respond before. I'll be going through and answering requests. Thanks!

Bowling on Ice
"I can't believe it!"
"No! This can't be!"
Sakura dumbly lifted her head off the table. Her eyes blinked in confusion and she quickly rubbed her eyes. It took her a moment to realize she had fallen asleep during class. Which wasn't that surprising considering she had a cold. Stupid winter and stupid snow.
The squeals of horror occurring behind her had obviously been what had woken her up. Rubbing her running noise, Sakura turned to see nearly the entire Sasuke Fan-Club gathered behind her.
"We can't let this happen!"
Sakura yawned slightly, realized suddenly that all the other students were gone. After a moment of uncertainty she glanced out the window to see everyone outside at recess. They seemed to be enjoying throwing snowballs, making snow angels and the like in the snow.
Although Sakura certainly didn't want to go outside with the way she was feeling she also didn't want to just sit here with the obsessive demons behind her. Pushing her stuff into a neat pile, Sakura stood and prepared to walk away from the frantic eight year olds, when the self-proclaimed leader Ino Yamanaka said something that caught her attention.
"Sasuke can't like this girl! It is a mistake! It was something else."
Sakura froze in mid-step.
Time itself seemed to stop.
And in one of the biggest mistakes of her life, she did something she should have done. Mixed herself with the fanclub.
"What?" Sakura shouted as she whirled around.
The crowd of girls looked at her in shock. Sakura's own eyes widened. The silence stretched on and on, and honestly Sakura was all, but ready to break into a run. Yet, the prospect of a girl possibly destroying any chance of her and Sasuke's possible future boyfriend-girlfriend status was more important that her own embarrassment.
Yet the awkward pause was just about enough to make her burst into tears.
Luckily someone did it before her.
"Sasuke is in love with Ai!" cried one of the followers. Immediately afterwards, more of the club burst into tears.
"How could this have happened?"
"Why is it Ai?"
"Noo!"
Sakura slowly turned around to look at the seat directly in front of hers. The empty seat suddenly felt like it was brimming with evil.
Sakura glanced at the girls, suddenly filled with an enthusiasm that she had never felt while talking to any of these girls before.
"How do you know he likes her? Did Ai say something? She could have been lying." Sakura asked.
"No! Ami saw something—Ami tell her what happened."
"Hey," Ino interrupted quickly, "Are we really going to let forehead girl just waltz into our club and hear all the secrets we have?"
The girls looked between each other for a second before they glanced at Sakura. A girl named Yume spoke up.
"Well...she certainly has the same interests as us. Plus she is friends with Naruto Uzumaki! Who is best friends with Sasuke-kun! She is certainly a good addition to our ranks. If she wants to we should let her join. It will only benefit us, right?"
Agreement spread through the girls and although Sakura was about to protest to becoming a member when she didn't want it in the first place, but Ino spoke before she had a chance.
"Fine! Forehead-girl is now an official member of Team S-A-S-U-K-E."
"Team Sasuke?" Sakura asked trying to hold back her snicker. They had certainly picked a very unobvious name for their fanclub.
"No! Team S-A-S-U-K-E. It stands for Sasuke-Army-Star-United-Kool-Entity." Ino said with an exasperated look on her face. She placed her hand on her hip in a way that reminded Sakura of her mother when she was reprehending her for something.
Somehow...Somehow Sakura managed to not burst out laughing after hearing the name of Ino's fanclub. It was absolutely rich. But fortunately Sakura knew better than to upset Ino right now; she still needed to hear about Sasuke.
"Ok...So about Sasuke?" She asked, trying to figure out which girl was Ami.
"Oh right! Ami, tell her."
"Well...I was really bored with Iruka's lecture, so I turned to look at Sasuke-kun...and at first I didn't notice anything weird. But he kept staring in the same direction. And after a while I realized he was looking at Ai. He didn't look away the entire class!"
"There has to be something more to it." Ino shouted, "Try and think of something! Of anything!"
Sakura was confused. Obviously they didn't have any proof that Sasuke liked Ai, but at the same time...Sasuke never gave a second glance at any girl. The fact he had stared at Ai the entire class made Sakura's entire world crash down around her.
What if he really did like Ai?
It was too horrifying to think of.
There had to be a different reason? Right? Something that he had been looking at? Not the girl herself? Sakura tried to picture Ai, to think of anything that might have made her different than others, but in honestly she wasn't much different than the rest of the girls in the school. She had pretty blue eyes and she was cute, but nothing that special. Her hair was black, but Yume had black hair too. Really there was...wait. Casting a quick glance at all the girls, Sakura realized one thing.
Despite a mixture of appearances and hair styles there was one key difference between Ai and the rest of them.
Her hair had been grown out since five years ago and was now nearly at her knees. No girl in the entire school had hair that long. Only Ai did.
Long hair...
Sakura slowly brought her hands to trace through her pink locks. When her fingertips brushed through her ends she was only at about her chin.
Long hair...
She was never going to get a haircut again.
With her body wrapped in multiple layers, waiting in front of the school for her mother to pick her up wasn't nearly as bad as it could be. It still sucked though.
Pushing her hands deeper into her pockets, Sakura let out a long sigh into the scarf wrapped around her mouth and nose. The rest of the day she had been plagued with sneezing and coughing fits and had nearly fallen asleep again during Iruka's math lesson. To only make matters worse she had been filled with jealousy as she looked at Ai sitting in front of her. Her brunette hair seemed to be gleaming with sparkles.
The only reason Sakura stopped throwing glares at the back of Ai's head was when she realized almost every girl in the room was glaring at her as well. Unwilling to be on the same level as her new 'club' Sakura stared at the paper the rest of the day.
With another sigh, Sakura turned her head to see if she could find Naruto anywhere. Wherever the hyperactive blonde was, Sasuke was sure to be as well. Surprisingly she saw the raven hair first. Obviously she was very used at watching him from afar that she could locate him before Naruto.
He was actually looking in her direction. With excitement, Sakura removed her hand and waved at him. Although she didn't expect anything, he actually stared at her before nodding his head.
She was finally getting somewhere! Yes!
With a hidden smile, Sakura placed her hand in her pocket once again just as Naruto turned to look at her. He flashed a grin before turning to look at Sasuke. With Naruto there, Sakura was sure she could somehow weasel her way into the conversation.
Although Sakura would have loved to think of herself as Sasuke's friend, since the 'incident that shall not be named' she had distanced herself from him in fear that Sasuke's brother had mentioned something. However after months without Sasuke-kun ever confronting her about the 'incident,' Sakura felt like it would be Ok to hang around him again. But after avoiding him for so long, the only thing she managed was to get called annoying every day and to become friends with Naruto.
So this rare opportunity of him acknowledging her should not be wasted.
Sakura was about to walk up to them, but stopped when Naruto shouted suddenly.
"We had an agreement Sasuke! Neither one of us was going to act! You broke our pact! Just like it was nothing!" He was practically shouting into Sasuke's ears and with how loud he was from this distance, Sakura was sure Sasuke-kun would be irritated.
"I didn't do anything, Naruto." Sasuke hissed out as he roughly pushed the blonde away from him. "So, shut up."
"I saw you during class Sasuke! Sasuke I saw—" Sakura slowly backtracked till she was a good distance from the two boys. She along with many of their classmates had witnessed more than one of their fights and being too close during them was only putting yourself in danger.
She stood at that distance for a while just watching the two boys bicker. Although Naruto ended up blocking her view of Sasuke, she still couldn't help but watch. It was easy enough imagining the boy standing out of her sight.
"What are you looking at Sakura?" a voice asked beside her.
Turning her head, Sakura saw Kiba looking at her. Embarassed at being caught staring, she did what any normal person would do.
"Nothing." She bit out. Kiba was not one of her favorite people. He always made a point of embarrassing people and annoying someone any chance she got. If he found out she was just another 'Sasuke fangirl' her life would be ruined.
"Were you looking at Naruto?"
Sakura sputtered in shock, looking at Kiba with horror-filled eyes. "No!" Sakura protested.
"You have been hanging with him a lot..." Kiba continued with a sly look on his face. "Do you like him?" Sakura was left opened mouthed at the prospect of liking Naruto. Shock filled her every being and she found she couldn't even sputter out a protest.
Obviously the wrong choice in not denying it.
Kiba smirked while cupping his mouth and started singing "Naruto and Sakura, sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes mar—"
"Kiba-kun!" Sakura shrieked. In her panic to shut the boy up, she lunged at him, all but prepared to throttle him to death. Only the stupid dog-boy ran out of her grasp. To make matters worse, almost everyone had turned to look at the commotion he was creating. Thankfully, Sasuke-kun and Naruto still seemed to be too consumed in their conversation to hear what Kiba had been saying.
However considering the fact he was running straight toward them and was still proudly proclaiming her and Naruto's supposed love, it wouldn't be long before they did hear. Before Sasuke heard.
No!
Scrambling after him, Sakura charged as the boy was about to go into a second chorus. He abruptly stopped signing in order to jump away from her grasp once again.
Only to Sakura's horror her sprint had lead her directly to a layer of ice.
Without even being aware of what happened, she felt the impact of her back hitting the ground as her body slid a few feet till it crashed into a very heavy object. With a massive weight that hit her caused Sakura's breath to be knocked out of her.
Everything was blurry for a few seconds. There was a pounding in her head that made her groan in pain. When another groan followed directly after, the pain made it take Sakura longer than it should have to realize she had not made the second nice.
Despite the heap of yellow and orange next to her, it wasn't obvious to Sakura right away that Naruto was on the ground beside her. When did realize though, she knew she had crashed into him and knocked him over.
"Ow." Naruto cried out while he rubbed his head with one of his hands.
"I'm so sorry Naruto!" Sakura cried out, immediately trying to push herself away from him. To her horror though, her weight did not land on the concrete like she had expected. It was now pressed on another firm body. A small grunt only confirmed the fact that Sakura had taken another victim with her fall. As if she was moving in slow motion, Sakura turned to look at the other person she had brought down. It wasn't like she already knew though.
Seeing his face staring at her from the snow covered ground was enough to make the blood in her veins turn to ice.
Sasuke looked at her, his face just slightly flushed as if he was sick as well. His eyes narrowed and shoved her off him rather crudely. "Sakura get off," he snapped, "you're heavy."
Well...her life was ruined completely now.
Not only was her hair short, she was also fat.
Stupid Ice.
Stupid World.
Epic Fail A/N: In seems pretty obvious to me, but that could be cause I wrote this. Sasuke wasn't looking at Ai; he was looking at the sleeping Sakura. But cause her head was down, to others it looked differently.
