I was watching a new Japanese drama called "Atashinchi no Danshi" (The guys of my house) or something like that. It so inspired me to write a story similar to it. I hope you guys watch it and like this story. Don't worry I'll still be continuing Gomenasai (NaruSaku) and Love Story (DeiSaku). LOL notice how both guys have blond hair and blue eyes. Anyways, let's go into the story.
Love Love Love
You know that saying "There will be a time in your life where you will meet someone who will change your life forever"? I always thought nothing of it...
A woman came into a café. People in the café looked at her weirdly for she had very, very messy black hair and wore big sun glasses. She had dirt all over her face and clothes. A homeless person had just walked inside the café.
"Sakura-san!" A boy with a bowl-cut hairstyle shouted.
"Hey Lee" I greeted.
My name is Sakura Haruno. I'm your average 17 year old girl…well I used to be until my stupid brother, Sasori, gambled his way to debt. And to make it worse, he put my name on the debt list!
"How have you been Sakura-san? Have you eaten anything? How's your health?" Lee asked me. He owned the café I was in and we went to elementary school together. In fact, most of my friends worked here in the café like Ino Yamanaka, Hinata Hyuga, Tenten Kunai, and Temari Suna. I don't go to school with them anymore because of my life situation. My friends all go to a rich school, but we still hang out together.
"I'm fine Lee, I was just wondering if I could take a shower in the back" I asked him. Lee shined his bright teeth at me. I could swear I was going blind.
"Of course Sakura-san! Anything for you!" He said.
"Hey, you have to pay to take a shower in the back" A man as he grabbed my arm. I stared at him. I never saw him around here before. He had brown spiky hair and red triangle marks on his face. Tattoos? He had a puppy with him too.
"Kiba, stop, its okay, let her pass" Lee said. "Sorry about that Sakura-san, he's new"
I could feel Kiba's stare on me.
"Whatever" I said as I went to the back to take a shower.
Two men in black soon came into the café a couple minutes later and went up to Lee.
"Hey, have you seen this girl?" One of them asked. It was a picture of me with my long pink hair and green eyes. Lee's eyes widened in panic as he quickly began to shake his head.
"N-No, not at all!" Lee said.
Kiba looked at the picture and smiled. "She's pretty cute"
The two guys looked at each other in nodded. "Check around"
Lee really started to panic as he watched them go into the back. He soon ran up and screamed. "PLEASE MARRY ME!"
My eyes widened when I heard Lee shout. That was our little code to tell me if the loan shakers were here to get me. I quickly finished my shower and put on my clothes. I could hear the loan sharks open every stall and girls screaming. Thankfully the stalls were all connected. I immediately ran through them and ran out.
"I have to go Lee!" I yelled at him. The new guy, Kiba, just stared at me in shock.
I ran as fast as I could around Konoha. I looked back to see the guys still chasing after me.
"Give us back our money, Haruno!" One of them shouted. I flicked one of them off as I ran into a construction site of a building and immediately began to climb up. They were still after me. After a while, I soon ended up in a dead end. The only way out was to climb up the fence and jump many stories down.
"We got you now!" The loan sharks said. "We got you cornered. Give us back our 1,000,000 bucks!"
My mouth dropped. My brother was 1,000,000 dollars in debt! Oh, the next time I see him, I will kill him with my bare hands. I soon tried to climb up the fence as they tried to pull on my legs.
"Let me go!" I screamed.
"Give us our money!"
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" I yelled. Before I knew it, a helicopter began to head my way. The loan sharks looked at the helicopter confused. It landed on top of the roof.
"What's going on here?" A man asked. He had blond spiky hair and nice blue eyes. He seemed to be in his 30's if not 40's.
"Hey, get out of here. This doesn't involve you!" One of the bad men said.
"Yeah, she's a very expensive thing" the other said. "So leave at once"
"She's not an object" The man said back to them.
"Yes she is! An incredible expensive thing that needs to pay us 1,000,000 dollars" One of the loan sharks said. The old man looked at me as I tried to hold my tears. I was embarrassed and scared at the same time.
"She's not to me" My savior said.
"Huh?" The loan sharks said.
"I'll pay you the $1,000,000" He said.
"Eh?!" We all said surprised.
"I'll pay her debt" He repeated as he signed a check and gave it to the loan sharks. "Send the receipt back here" The loan sharks soon left with the money they wanted.
"Why did you do that?" I asked the stranger.
"Come with me" He said as he led me to the roof and I let him. I mean, he just paid my brother's debt.
He helped me on the helicopter as we began to fly around Konoha. There was an awkward silence between me and the stranger.
"T-Thanks, for what happened back there" I said kind of embarrassed. "What do you want?"
"I'm Minato Namikaze" The man introduced himself.
"I want to know what your goal is, not who you are" I said. "What are you plotting?"
Minato just smiled at me as he took out a scroll. On the scroll it read:
I will repay the 1 million yen some day
_______________
"What?" I questioned.
"It's a written oath" Minato said as he handed me a pen.
I glared at the man who saved my life and took the pen from him. I soon wrote my name on the line under the statement.
"Do you have a coin?" He asked me. I nodded as I handed him one.
"This who you have been" He told me. I watched as he flipped the coin onto the back of his hand. "Your future will be shining brightly.
"Huh?" I said. Even though I'm a bright kid, I did not understand a word he said.
Minato lifted the oath paper as my green eyes widened. Under it was a marriage registration form.
"Beginning today…you will be Sakura Namikaze" He said.
"WHAT!" I screamed.
XxXxXxX
I still tried to get over my panic attack. I was only a 17, supposedly a girl almost finished with her junior year.
Why?!
Why couldn't I just be a normal girl with a normal life?
Why did my parents have to die when I was in middle school?
Why did my brother have to run away?
Why did I have to be homeless?
Why did he have to fall into debt?
Why do I have to marry a stranger?
Why couldn't I be happy with a happy life?
I started to cry.
"Don't worry; it's only for a month" He said trying to comfort me. "It's the least you can do before my time comes"
His last sentence got me. "Are you going to die or something?" I asked me.
He just smiled sadly at me. "That's what my fortune said". I rolled my eyes.
"You think you're going to die because of a fortune?" I asked not believing everything.
"Yes" He said. "You just have to be married to me for a month. I don't want to be alone when I die…"
My heart ached. I felt the same way as well.
"Don't you have any family?" I asked him.
He smiled. "I had a wife. She died while giving birth. I was told I lost my son due to a miscarriage"
Aw man….
"Fine. I'll be your wife for a month, but only for a month!" I said as I crossed my arms in front of my chest.
He smiled at me. "Thank you very much, Sakura Haruno!"
A month…
It couldn't be that bad, right? After a month, he probably would live and we can go our separate ways. Since my brother's debt would be paid, I could go to high school and probably live with Ino.
Something in my gut told me things wouldn't be this simple after this month…
I just hope I was wrong….

How was it? Did you guys like it? At first, I was planning to put the third Hokage as the guy to save Sakura, but I couldn't see him in my story so I put the fourth Hokage instead. Oh and good news! SPOILER: Kakashi and everyone that died in the Akatsuki attack aren't dead! Thank you Nagato! I love you! Stupid Sasuke, don't do anything bad to Konoha, I'm begging you! Well, please review everyone. I won't update until I have more than 10 reviews. That isn't too much to ask is it? You don't even have to have an account to review. Please and thank you.
