SOS
Summary: When Ino wrote an insulting letter for her cheating boyfriend, the number one bishounen of the campus Uchiha Sasuke, received it by accident and immediately declared war. To escape Sasuke's wrath before he discovers she was the anonymous sender, Ino pretends head-over-heels in love to him and tries to win his heart.
Author's Note: It really saddens me everytime I read a great Ino-story but is not given fair attention (and to think there are lots of Sakura-mushy-stories around with over 100 reviews, hell). I was motivated by those Ino-writers who didn't mind if they only get 10 feedbacks. It SUCKS that every bishie is paired to Sakura when Ino is more beautiful. I mean, what's with Sakura compared to Ino except the enormous forehead. I didn't write this to bash Sakura nor to be flamed. Anyway, I do love receiving flames with all my heart.
Genre: Humor/Romance though humor alone would be more appropriate. I could write romance but I think it would take you ten forevers before you actually realize I'm writing a romance.
Chapter I
"Damn it! Let go of me!"
With that kind of boisterous voice, I knew exactly who the approaching student was and in less than 30 seconds my prediction was proved right. The school guard entered the detention office and pushed inside a blond boy.
Hell, I muttered under my breath. First I was forced to run like a moron but still ended up late. Then much to my anticipation, I was scolded face-to-face (since I was so lucky to be the only late student today) by Baki-sensei, the executioner of all late students. And I gotta tell you Baki-sensei isn't a great sight in the morning, he makes me pee for an unknown reason.
At least the detention I received from it was tolerable. But to spend it with the number one noisiest student of Konoha High? Oh, Kami, what's wrong with you today suddenly making a jinx out of me.
Uzumaki Naruto retreated to a sit near me. And though I hate him because he always aggravates noise pollution, I didn't shoo him away. A cousin was still a cousin. But as I had expected, when he turned to me, he instantly began talking. Gracious heaven, it was as if his mouth has a life of its own.
Naruto tsk-tsked and dramatically cast a sympathizing look "You just smeared your record. What did you do?" Something I really hate about him is that when he's really concerned, he looked and eventually also sounded all the same as when he's sarcastic. What a natural-born prankster.
"I was late. Nothing more than your crazy antics that earned you another detention" I said.
"Don't classify something heroic like that"
"Heroic?" I almost choked on that "You consider 'pissing Uchiha Sasuke' heroic. I say it's hilarious"
"I'm just trying to borrow his homework. What's wrong with that?" Naruto defended immediately.
"Because there are over 500 freshmen here and you just tried to borrow from your self-proclaimed rival?" I remarked "Know what? Your stupidity can't be fathomed"
Much to my surprise, Naruto just laughed "If I'm stupid then Sasuke's way stupider than me" Pulling out something from his bag, he revealed Sasuke's notebook. He laughed again in triumph. Thankfully, we were the only students in the detention office and the teacher supposedly watching over us was out the room for daily gossips.
"If that Uchiha discovers you stole it, you'll be suspended" I said what was supposed to be said, not that I really care.
Naruto grinned, "He wouldn't. Believe me"
"Well, what if someone questions your homework?"
"Then I'll tell, my ever caring cousin deliberately made me copy her work" He smiled. That was reasonable after all. Even if Naruto belongs to the last section and me to the second section, we have the same questions for our homework. That is because Algebra is held by Kakashi who is so damn lazy that he gives same assignment in all his classes.
As Naruto began copying Sasuke's homework though, something as vivid as lighting struck me. My sudden recall of it made me involuntarily jerked up that Naruto immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
-
The resonant sound of bell echoed throughout the campus signaling another end of hour. It also means detention time had ended. As the bell continued to ring, I hastened my writing.
"Who's benefiting from my heroic act now?" Naruto smiled sheepishly rubbing the fact that I'm bound to accept his act was indeed heroic to show some gratitude. And as if enjoying my blatant defeat, he added "How come a nerd like you forgot an assignment?"
NERD!
If Kami had spared me a second, I would have given Naruto one of my dagger stares. I'm not a nerd! I only spent 3 hours in study... okay, maybe three and half hours. But I'm naturally intelligent! I would have rationalized this offense had I not been under time pressure.
"It slipped from my mind" was my excuse. I couldn't possibly tell him that I prioritized making a letter over doing homework. The same reason I woke up late since I already had slept 1 in the morning. As I think more of the letter, the picture of my cheating boyfriend suddenly occupied my thoughts. Envy and anger overwhelmed me that I unconsciously broke my pen.
"I-Ino, are you alright?" Naruto asked perceiving fires on me.
Finally, I broke from the thoughts of torturing my boyfriend and returned to the reality where I found my cousin staring at me, dumbstruck. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine" I said then laughed sheepishly "I gotta go" It was the only thing I can say to escape from his further inquisition.
Naruto stared at my departing figure still puzzled. When he was about to leave the room too, he though noticed something on the floor.
Hinata laughed softly as I finished telling the whole incident that morning. Lunch time was about to end and many students were returning back to their respected rooms. As we walked along the crowded hallway, Hinata turned to me and asked with reluctance, "What about Suigetsu?"
Concealing my envy, I replied coolly "That cheater was strolling in the mall with a girl. And they were so close I knew they'll gonna kiss next so I ran before I could witness more from their affair"
As I told Hinata more details of the scene, my gaze suddenly locked outside the window. Under the shade of a tree rest a clique which includes some freshmen from the top section; Aburame Shino, Hyuga Neji, Sabaku Gaara and the most popular student in Konoha High, Uchiha Sasuke.
I stopped on my tracks and went closer to the window. While his other three friends somewhat enjoyed the scenery of campus ground, Uchiha Sasuke lie on the grassy ground taking a nap. When he woke up and yawned, the MANY girls around them giggled. When he rubbed his eyes, girls giggled more. Every single movement from him caused the crowd of females to flatter. One student emerged out from the female crowd. With that long jet black hair, I immediately distinguished her as one of the socialite girls in sophomore.
Kin and Sasuke talked for a moment then Sasuke stood up. Though he was only a first-year student, he stood higher than Kin. So it would be unquestionable that when he pulled her body near his, he had the full control. Anyway, the next event was greatly anticipated by Kin so it didn't really matter.
First, there were only whispers and bites. A chaste kiss followed until it became passionate enough, the next thing happening was torrid scenes of rampant actions. I was impressed. Under a tree was the most private place they could get.
That time I realized Uchiha Sasuke was everything I hate. A Casanova. A certified—
"Cheater," The word run bitterly in my tongue "Let's go, Hinata"

The hands of the clock told two forty-eight. Less than fifteen minutes before this hell ended.
Research II is one of my favorite subjects. Why? Because we always take that class in the library and the fact that the library is the coldest spot in the campus is one good reason for me to love it. Today though, as I sat in one of the long tables in the library with a biology book in my hands for some research to do, I realized there are days when I should consider it an UN-likable class. Exemptions are when you are forced to have Research class with other section.
I sighed and pretended to read the book but actually was watching around. A group of girls on my side were constantly whispering on each other's ears while drooling over, yes you know it, Sasuke. Because as luck would have it, the other section turned out to be the top section where he belong.
Uchiha Sasuke, who sat three tables away from me, was talking on his phone ignoring the warning glimpse he had received from the teacher. But when Asuma-sensei hinted for the third time around, he had enough.
"Uchiha!" Despite the spacious area of the library, Asuma's voice ran resonant calling everyone's attention. In a second that followed, all eyes flew at the said bishounen. The girls on my side quoted 'poor Sasuke caught by that mean Asuma'. Stupid girls. If they knew what virtue means then they should have known Sasuke's more worth to be called ''mean'.
"If I was Asuma-sensei I would have ordered that Uchiha outside." I whispered on Hinata who sat beside me and simply smiled. He's so full of hot air that he amazingly irritated me.
"See you in the locker. I gotta hung" Sasuke said loudly annoying the teacher more before he actually hung up his phone. He stood up and walked across the library. Much to everyone's expectation, Sasuke willingly surrendered his phone to Asuma-sensei throwing in amazement all of us "Excuse me for the interruption. I'll go to the detention office now" An evident smile was plastered on Sasuke's face as he trudged out of the library leaving the sensei insulted.
If Sasuke wasn't just a son of a billionare CEO. Surely, inequality of life was manifested perfectly in his very being.

"Ouch!" Haruno Sakura snapped as she hit the locker with a loud thud. Sasuke didn't mind her plea neither his vehement actions. Instead, he pushed her body more against the metal lockers and kissed with a bruising force.
As usual, in every fucking session of Sasuke, a crowd always formed around. Definitely, he loves being publicized. "I got detention because of you" he said between kisses.
"At least close your locker before doing that" Neji commented. Sasuke ignored him.
He slipped his hand under Sakura's skirt and surprised, Sakura hit the locker again shaking the shelves greatly. Haruno Sakura bent in an awful ache, the pain finally ending their intercourse. Sasuke smiled, satisfied. When Sasuke bent down, Sakura thought he'll help her up but to her dismay he picked up the notebook which fell down from his locker. He placed back his notebook and closed his locker.
Sasuke felt someone touch his shoulder. When he turned around, he first saw that distinguishable auburn hair "It fell from your notes" Gaara said impassively emphasizing the letter in his hand.
Sasuke laughed "Another love letter" He really didn't care "Just throw it" he said.
"It seems interesting" Gaara commented while reading the letter.
Sasuke just smirked and went on his way. Hyuga Neji and the rest of the group followed him except Gaara who was left with the note.
Interesting, on Gaara's own vocabulary, means peculiar. So Shino Aburame shared the same interest to read the letter and was left behind with the red-haired lad.
Minutes later, Shino let out a laughing sound which made all eyes turn back to him. Because as everyone knew, it is odd for Shino to smirk, moreover laugh.
Sasuke turned around and walking back to them, he yanked the letter from Shino and read:
For a self-proclaimed elite like you,
You asshole. You think you're cool? You fucking sucks, rub that fact on your stinking face. If you're rich, why don't you buy a comb so you can fix your goddamn stiff hair? I mean, you look like a hobo with that hairdo. And if you know what proper hygiene means, why have bubonic plagues growing under your armpit. I advise you to acquaint yourself in the world of Deodorants. You're a total gross! Spare some female life. And also if you think cheating on other girls while having a LEGAL girlfriend is cool, well it's UNCOOL! Especially to cheat on someone as exceptionally beautiful as me? So go fuck some devil. Remember this day coz I'm dumping you, jerk!
P.S: I wish you'll drop dead after reading this. Cheaters like you aren't worth my time
Last P.S: Call me so we can fix our separation.
Last, Last P.S: FUCK YOU!
Uchiha Sasuke fell into a dead silence.

I pulled another notebook from my locker and checked every leaves. Not here either.
Where the hell did I put that? I pulled out another notebook... then another one... and another one until I have eventually piled all my things out of my locker not minding that they blocked part of the hallway.
Someone tapped me from behind. When I turned around, Hinata was there with my things in her arms "Of all the time, why did you decide to clean your locker during dismissal?"
"I'm not cleaning it" I said as I took my things from her and dumped them back on my locker "I'm looking for a letter" I told Hinata, who looked confused as I continued searching through my unorganized things "Remember I told you I was late and don't have my homework because I did a letter for Suigetsu last night?"
Where is it? I flipped on the pages of my notebooks again. Where did I put that? I tried to think more.
Think.
Think.
Think.
Thi— I almost jumped out from my spot upon feeling a sudden vibration. Flipping open my phone, I greeted to the caller "Hel—?"
"WHO THE FUCKING HELL ARE YOU?"
I was shocked by the violent attack of words by a total stranger. But what was more shocking was that something was vaguely strange. Odd, but I somewhat heard his words twice.
...his words twice
...words twice
...twice
Then it hit me.
As if by intuition, I turned sideways specifically 50 degrees east of north. Thirty lockers away from me, a crowd formed with Uchiha Sasuke in the center and he was... he was...— he was holding a GODDAMN PHONE!
Oh, God.
