Disclaimer: I'd be frickin rich if I owned Naruto. But I'm not. XD

Yes I know. I said I was taking a slight pause, but this has been bugging me to death. Oh, and you might think everyone is a bit OoC, but it's because it's in the future… let's say their personalities changed a bit…

Summary: Oh. My. God. My life is over. I just spilled coffee all over my boss. Oh crap… who am I? My name is Haruno Sakura, and my life is officially over. Future fic

Chapter 1- My Life is Doomed

I looked in the mirror for the umpteenth time to make sure I look all right.

"You're sure I look okay?" I ask.

"Relax Sakura, you look FINE," my best friend, Ino, reassured me.

"Yeah, you look great!" Tenten exclaimed, and Hinata stuttered, "Y-you look n-nice, S-Sakura-chan…"

I sighed. "I just want to get this job soooooo badly! And I'm the only one without a boyfriend!" I whined.

Yup. It's true. My name is Haruno Sakura, I'm 22 years old, and I'm single. My best friend, Yamanaka Ino is with this guy named Shikamaru, Tenten, a really good friend is with Hyuuga Neji which is the cousin of Hyuuga Hinata, who is another one of my close friends, is with Uzumaki Naruto, the ramen addict. And me… well, I'm single.

"Not our fault!" Tenten huffed.

"S-She's right, S-Sakura-chan," Hinata said softly.

"Yeah! You've rejected every single guy!" Ino protested.

"Well, because they're not right!" I retorted, "I just can't imagine myself getting serious with them!"

Ino rolled her eyes. "Looks like someone is going to die single."

I made a face then looked at my watch. "I'M GOING TO BE LATE!"

I panted for breath while sitting in the plastic chair. I made it. Ino and the others are outside waiting, but I made it.

"Haruno Sakura?"

"Yes?"

"We're ready for you."

Nervously, I walked over to the door and opened it quickly. Closing it behind me I turned around and smiled at the two people watching me.

One was a woman with brown hair in a tight bun. Her glasses were on the bridge of her nose, but she didn't seem to notice. Her dark brown eyes watched me carefully as I sat down in the chair.

I looked at the person behind him, and I took all my self control to not drool. His hair was a raven color, and his eyes were onyx black. He was HOT!

"So, Haruno-san, you wish to be the secretary?" the woman asked flipping through a couple of papers.

"Wha? Oh, yes," I said returning my attention to the woman.

She whispered something to the person behind her, and he eyed me and nodded.

"You've been accepted."

"What? There are still people out there waiting for," I was cut off rudely.

"It all depends on the president's decision," she said airily, "He knows who would make a good secretary. You start tomorrow, be here at 7 A.M. sharp."

Before I know what was happening, I was pushed outside of the building where Ino, Hinata, and Tenten came rushing over to see how it went.

"I got the job!" I said excitedly once my senses returned.

Ino and Tenten shrieked and launched themselves onto me, while Hinata said, "C-congratulations Sakura-chan, I-I'm so h-happy for you…"

"Let's go out to lunch to celebrate!" Tenten exclaimed.

"My treat!" Ino said happily.

"Oh yeah," Tenten suddenly said, "Neji invited everyone to his place this Saturday at 4!"

"Why?" I asked.

Tenten shrugged. "I don't know. Because he wanted to? Wait… Hinata, you know, don't you."

We all stared at Hinata whose face was red, "Neji-nii-san t-told me, b-but I-I'm not s-supposed to t-tell…"

Tenten made a face. "But I wanna know!"

"I bet he's going to propose to you!" Ino said.

"Wanna bet on it?" I asked smirking at Ino.

"Bring it on, forehead-girl!" she said slamming twenty dollars down onto the table.

Reaching into my purse, I slammed down twenty dollars, "Don't start crying when you lose, Ino-pig!"

"Hinata already knows who is going to win," Tenten whined, "C'mon Hinata, tell us!"

Hinata smiled shyly and shook her head. Over the years, her hair has gotten longer, but still only shoulder length, but she was still really pretty.

Ino on the other hand, had super long blonde hair that she still kept up in a high ponytail. And like me, she keeps it super soft and shiny.

Tenten let's her hair out of the two buns now, and it reaches down to about 3 inches below shoulder length. She still puts it up, but not really.

Me? I still have pink hair, and it's pretty long, reaching down to about the middle of my back. I love my pink hair, it makes me so… so… so unique!

"So, Sakura," Ino said breaking the silence, "Have you seen your boss?"

I paused, then it clicked. "Oh, yeah! I saw him!"

The other three, even Hinata, leaned in closer. "Well? What was he like?" Tenten asked eagerly.

"He was so hot!" I said dreamily, "He had raven hair and onyx eyes… I just know his last name is Uchiha."

"You have a hot boss? LUCKY!" Ino pouted.

"Ino, you don't even work," Tenten pointed out, "You're rich."

"I know, but it would be nice to have someone hot to be my boss."

The three of us rolled our eyes while Ino was off in dream land. We snapped her out of it when our food arrived.

"Man, you guys are such pigs!" Ino complained looking at the bill again.

We laughed. "You said you'd treat us, Ino-pig!" I said teasingly.

Ino made a face.

"Aw, relax Ino, you're so rich you'll never have to work!" Tenten said. That brightened Ino up.

"You're right!" she exclaimed, "Let's go shopping!"

"Oh, I-I'm so s-sorry, I-I have to g-go h-home…" Hinata stuttered shyly.

"Yeah, I have to go to. Neji told me to help him with tomorrow," Tenten made a face, "He's been acting really strangely lately… Anyway, c'mon Hinata! See you guys later!" she called as she and Hinata set off in the opposite direction.

"Well, it's only the two of us now," Ino said, "LET'S GO!"

"This skirt is so cute!" Ino gushed looking at a shop window.

"It is," I agreed joining her.

"Hey Sakura," she said, "You need it!"

"WHAT?"

"For your job!"

"B-but, it's probably so expensive!" I complained.

Ino grinned. "I'll buy it for you! Can't have my best friend looking bad on her first day at work!"

I grinned, "Thanks Ino-pig!"

"Come ON, forehead-girl," Ino complained, "It's a skirt! How bad can you look?"

I stared at myself in the mirror. Ino had also forced me in with the top part of this, which happened to be a complete suit.

Reluctantly, I stepped out of the dressing room, waiting for Ino's response.

Silence.

"KAWAII!" she exclaimed.

I turned around to look at myself in the 3 way mirror. I have to admit, I didn't look that bad.

The outfit was pretty much all white, and the fabric felt like silk. The skirt had a cherry blossom design along the bottom, and I was wearing a pink shirt under the suit.

"I actually like it…"

"Okay, let's go pay!"

After Ino paid for the outfit, and after I thanked her about a million times, we each set off home.

Once I entered the comfort of my own house, I took out my new outfit and carefully hung it up.

I smiled happily and plopped down onto the bed, looking at the photo beside my bed.

"Mom, Dad, I finally got my first job!" I said softly a tear escaping my eye, "I wish you were here…"

Before I knew it, I fell asleep.

Beep, beep.

I groaned.

Beep, beep.

I slowly opened an eye to look at the evil alarm clock and jumped up. 6:40 A.M.

20 MINUTES TO GET READY? SHIT! I cursed as I jumped out of bed and slipped into the outfit.

Grabbing a bagel, I jumped into my car and stopped by Starbucks for a coffee.

I stuffed the rest of my bagel in my mouth when I arrived at the huge building, and lifted the coffee to my lips when I crashed into someone.

"Oh, gomen nasai!" I apologized when I saw the person's suit covered with my coffee.

For a minute, I was frozen. Then my gaze traveled from his tie… to his neck… to his chin… to his nose… to his eyes… Those onyx eyes couldn't be mistaken for.

Oh. My. God. My life is over. I just spilled my coffee all over my boss. My life is officially over.

Author's Note: Okay, I rushed at the end. I know. I'm sorry! Gomen! Yes yes, I know, 10th open story. I promise, no more new stories until I finish one! I don't think this will be updated that soon, unless I get like 10 reviews. XD Please review!
