First things First.

Author's Note

Firstly, I want to thank the people who decided to give this fanfic entitled 'Candies' a try.

Its not a romance fanfic, though i wanted the title to seem like it as a troll. Its more of a Sakura get stronger to find her will kind of fanfic.

I want to explain about Sasuke being OOC, and i mean VERY OOC.

Canon Sasuke had his Uchiha curse when Itachi killed his whole clan and to the addition of him being Indra's reincarnation, Sasuke was obssesed on getting strong to defeat Itachi.

However, in this fic, I made it Sakura his main reason for his curse to trigger if she did anything that effect him.

and on a side note, Their age might be a little different from the canon, but dont mind that.

please review and enjoy !

:D

"Mommm !!"

6 year old Haruno Sakura, running while grinned at her mother who was about to start making dinner for the family.

Mebuki Haruno stretched her arms and engulfed her bubbly daughter who immediately ran straight into her embrace, giggling softly then slowly combed Sakura's pink locks.

"Hello darling, what's wrong ?" Mebuki spoke with a worry tone, she was extremely protective of her adorable daughter.

Sakura resist to pout at her mother's unability to trust her, what she liked to say, her-awesome-turtle-ninja-ly-skills.

"Sheesh, mom ! I'm fine. I just missed you, that's all." Sakura complained cutely, nuzzling into her mother's neck.

Now you see why Mebuki was so protective at the precious doll ?

Mebuki gave a laugh, patting her daughter's back, "Is that all, Sakura ?"

"Yeah." Sakura mumbled from her neck, "I'm hungry..." Sakura could feel her little tummy growl from thinking her mother's delicious cooking.

"Ah, I'm sorry dear. But you'll need to wait for a while." Mebuki apologised, tapping Sakura's button nose, "I'll get right on it, alright ?"

Sakura's smile gone wider, "Mhn ! Okay, mom." She knew that her mother's cooking was definitely worth waiting for.

Mebuki giggled again.

How could her daughter be this adorable ?

"Whereeee'ssss my cute princessss ?"

Suddenly, she was quickly scooped up by a pair of strong arms that was used to fight for Konoha. Rough fingers that used to grip a kunai 24/7, in case of invaders in the village made it's way to Sakura's side and started tickling her teasingly.

"Pwahaha !" Sakura who was very ticklish, couldn't contain her laughter bursted out laughter and giggling, "DAD !" She gasped for mercy, feeling her stomach pain from laughter too hard.

Kizashi Haruno cracked a grin from his usual stoic facade, putting Sakura down. The pinkette who had a bright smile that matched her father's grin hopped down from the pair of strong and secure arms.

"Honey." Mebuki smiled at her husband.

Kizashi's gaze shifted at his wife, his gaze filled with passion for the woman he loved, "Ah, my dearest Queen." He muttered, planting a quick kiss on her Mebuki's lips due to Sakura's presence.

"Ahhh ! Daddyyy ! Where's my kiss !" Sakura pouted, wailing her hands to get her parents attention.

The two adults shared a look of look for their daughter and smiled, knowing they would indeed live happily forever after.

:

Yet, happiness, they come and go, disappearing at the moment you least expected.

:

"Sakura, dear. How about you go and play at the park ?" Mebuki suggested while telling her husband to let her wear her apron by her own.

Kizashi ignored her whines, "Yeah, It's still a long time after lunch's ready"

Sakura's green emerald eyes sparkled at the thought of playing at the park which is full of kids her age, running and playing happily together.

"Okay !"

Giving a short answer, Sakura shot out from the house, dashing while mimicking how a ninja runs.

:

"What's wrong with the neighbors today geez." The neighbor living beside the Haruno groaned, filling his cup of water, "Sakura-chan's going to be a sister soon if they keep it up."

:

"Wow, there's a lot of people today."

Sakura arrived, seeing a flock of people mainly females, surrounding her favourite swing set.

She raised a pink brow, and decided to get a look at what made everyone love the swingset that's usually forgotten by people.

"Teme ! Stop that !"

"You stop that Dobe !"

Dobe ? Teme ?

Sakura raised her pink brow curiously, not understanding why they would insult each other even though they seem like best friends.

Seeing a small opening at the crowd, she immediately squeezed herself into the crowd with her petite figure.

"What..."

Sakura's once excited smile froze, finally get to see what got the people's attention.

It's only a pair of kids who was figuring how to play a swing.

By the looks on how they couldn't even figure out what exactly is a swing if she asked them, they were from noble clans which Sakura gave no care about.

"Dobe ! You're doing it wrong !" The black haired yelled, as if he was the first to figure out this mystery, "Let me show you !"

The black haired which Sakura admit is actually really good-looking, stood up on the seat, balancing his body and then jumped down onto the floor.

"Ha ! You see ! You're such a dobe."

Black haired mocked, looking at the other kid with bright yellow hair and whiskered cheeks triumphantly.

"No ! I saw them played Teme ! Not like how lame you play ! They fly-ttebayo ! Like, whooshhhh and then swoooshhhh ! They're like ninja-ttebayo !"

The blonde countered back.

Sakura couldn't accept it.

How could they not know how to play one of most wonderful things in the world ?

And so, Sakura decided to show them a little fun in the world.

"Hey !" She yelled to get their attention.

The fangirls around them immediately glared at the source of the voice.

How dare she yelled at their hubbies !

Sakura however was too upset that the two didn't know how to play a freakin' swing to notice.

"Like this."

Sakura said, taking hold of a swing, and sat onto it, glancing at the two, which they urged her to continue.

Setting her short little legs just above the ground, she gave a strong push, and when she felt a breeze of wind carress her face, she quickly lifted her legs, letting the wind do it's magic, as a bright grin climbed up her adorable face.

"So...cute..." The blonde who immediately took a liking to Sakura's addictive smile, blushed seeing the girl having the time of his life.

The black haired snapped his head at what his friend had said, "What did you said Naruto ?" He hissed, giving him one of the most famous glare that his clan passed on.

"I said She's cute-ttebayo, Sasuke-teme !" The blonde, Naruto, who apparently have a pea-sized brain repeated his sentence not noticing the grim aura Sasuke was releasing.

Sasuke harden his glare.

Naruto whimpered, feeling aggreive.

"I suggest you focus on Hyuuga." Sasuke reminded, smiling all too sweetly for Naruto's liking.

But the mention of the Hyuuga princess made him blush, then froze in terror finally remembering he needed to meet her for a ramen date.

"Ahhhh !! I'm late !!! Byeee Temeeee !!"

"Dobe. Good luck anyways."

Sasuke gave a wave to the running figure of the Uzumaki, secretly grinning that he get to hog the adorable female all to himself.

It's not like he like her or anything.

He's just curious if pink's her natural hair colour.

:

"Ah, I'm sorry." Sakura who finally noticed Sasuke, who was staring at her the whole time.

But she didn't need to know that, nor the fact that they had met even earlier than this.

Sakura guiltily stopped her swinging, and left the seat, "I forgot that you two are waiting for your turn."

Sasuke blushed, which he denied everytime, seeing Sakura noticed him.

"Ah, It's no problem. Naruto was being a dobe as usual and forgot things and ran off." Sasuke clarify not liking to see her upset.

See.

He definitely do not like her.

Sasuke hummed, nodding agreeingly with himself. Accidentally he bit his tongue, making a loud hissing sound.

Sakura gave a worried glance, pulling on his sleeve, "You okay ?"

Her face was just so adorable.

Let's just say, Sasuke sprinted before Sakura could even react.

"Wait ! What...?"

Boys are weird...

:

"Mom ! I'm home !"

Sakura called out, grinning happily, and jumped into her mother's embrace once again.

"Sakura dear~ Welcome home." Mebuki gave a tired smile, her apron was messily wore as if she was in a hurry.

Fuzashi smirked at his wife that was struggling to stay on her feet and decided to help her.

"Sakura-chan. Come here will you ?"

"Ah, sure, dad."

Sakura gave a nod and skipped over happily to her big strong dad.

Mebuki gave a slight glare at Fuzashi, blaming him that he's the reason she couldn't even stand well, but was thankful that she could have a rest after the heated exercise.

:

"Dad ! Dad ! C'mon Dad ! Tell me about that time when you fought against those evil thugs !" Sakura whined, looking up at her father with a cute pout on her lips as she sat on her father's lap.

Mebuki giggled at Sakura's enthusiasm of becoming a kunoichi, "Now, Now, Sakura. You're father just got home from work. I'm sure he's exhausted from work." She then placed of freshly cut apples on the table, "Here you go, you're favourite fruit."

Sakura frowned, but nodded nontheless, she didnt want her dad to be more tired as he already is.

She then grabbed an apple with her chubby fingers, and sent it in front of her fathers face.

"Say ahhh~" She grinned, seeing her father cooperate and fed him the red fruit, "Yummy right ?"

"Indeed it is, Sakura." Fuzashi smiled back, patting her head.

"Dad ! Here ! Have another one !" She chirped, giving her father another bigger piece of the fruit.

The man chuckled, but still ate it, a little curious at why Sakura was suddenly being so generous, not that she was selfish before.

"Dad. You ate two of the biggest apples. You gotta be strong now !" Sakura grinned, hopping excitedly, "Now can you tell me about that story ?? pretty-please~" Sakura begged, not forgetting to add on her irresistible puppy eyes.

Mebuki was about to scold Sakura until the father laughed heartily, picking her up and tickle her side again, earning a series of joyous laughter.

"Okay Okay. I'll tell you. Listen closely, Sakura. That was the time I-"

:

"Goodnight mom~"

Sakura hummed, after Mebuki tucked her into neatly.

"Night honey."

Mebuki kissed her forehead, and slowly left the room, after she was sure that Sakura slept into dreamland.

:

Yes, this was Haruno Sakura's life.
