~April 10, 1912~

It was the late afternoon, when Sasuke and his father and mother pulled up in a crowded deck full of people. The car haltered to a stop and the door opened. He stepped out the car and took in the scenery of the largest ship in the world named, 'The Titanic'. "Beautiful isn't she." He heard his father, Fugaku Uchiha say. Sasuke turned to his father, "A little too big to be called the 'Unsinkable Ship', if I say so myself." He said irritably. His father frowned at him and grabbed hold of him, keeping a tight grip on his arm. "Don't embarrass me, boy." Fugaku said through clench teeth. Sasuke turned to him and glared.

A pale small hand laid itself on his father's hand, "Fugaku, let go of him. You will not be embarrassing my son." His mother, Mikoto said. He reluctantly let go of his arm, slightly pushing him when doing so and walked past them. Ever since his elder brother, Itachi, died; his father had been acting coldly toward him, maybe because he saw Itachi more fit of becoming the successor of the business than him. Mikoto patted him on his shoulder, reassuringly. He looked at his mother and saw her smiling warmly up at him. For the twenty two years of his life, his mother was so sweet to him, even though she also saw Itachi fit of becoming the successor. But he could care less about that.

Sasuke smiled back at her and grabbed her hand, like the gentleman he was, and started leading her toward the luxury ocean liner.

~O~

The sound of the ship's horn was blowing loudly, signaling that it was about to deport from the harbor. Sakura pushed her way through the crowd in a rush, "Excuse me! Excuse me!" She said loudly over the horn blowing. She hurried up the ramp and one of the ship's crew members stopped her with his hand up, "Not so fast little lady! Ticket." He demanded holding his hand out. Sakura went through her overcoat pocket and pulled out her ticket. He took it from her and looked at it. He then looked at her and smiled, then stepped aside, ushering her in, "Welcome to the Titanic." He said as she walked past.

Sakura slightly frowned, when she saw down the small third-class hallway, it was cramped and cluttered with luggage and people. She pick up her bag and started pushing her way through the small spaces that the hallway provided for her. She was suddenly pushed to the wall when someone fell onto her. She whimpered a bit when she felt the silver bars press hard into her hip; she just knew it was going to bruise. "Oh, I'm sorry, baby." She heard the drunken slur of a man say. She nodded her head before continuing her way. They were already drunk and the ship had yet to leave.

Sakura Haruno, age seventeen. She was a daughter of Japanese immigrants that moved to New York when she was just two months old; she had found out recently that the reason they left Japan was because they had to escape the Japanese mafia because her father had owed money. When she was just five years old, her father had told her that she had to go to England, she had also found out the only reason she moved to England was because the mafia found out where they were hidden. Just after the day she left, they came and killed both her mother and father.

After that, she had moved in a orphanage and stayed there for seven year, until now. She was going to move back to New York because she had gotten a scholarship to go to Julliard School of Music and how she got that, just playing the piano in a recreational center back home and lucky her, there were talent scouts. She was very well talented at playing the piano. She gave thanks to Madam Norton for all the practice she gave her from when she was younger.

Sakura opened the metal door and stepped through taking her surroundings. She wasn't at all disappointed, it was home to her. She placed her bag on her bunker and sat down beside it. She sighed, finally able to sit down and rest, she had been on the move since this morning. She noticed a small little window. She rose up from her bed and walked over and looked out the small circle window; the people on the harbor and on deck were throwing confetti everywhere. She sighed once more; she couldn't go up there with all the commotion and celebrations going on.

She walked over to her bed and grabbed her bag and placed it on the floor and slid it under her bed. After she did that, she laid down. She needed a well needed nap. She took a deep breathe before closing her eyes and falling asleep.

~O~

Sasuke and his parents walked to their first-class stateroom after the departing celebration on deck, which he thought was meaningless. He opened the door to his stateroom and stopped in his tracks when he saw a red-haired girl and a old woman sitting on the couch. "Who're you?" He said, looking from the girl to the woman. His father stepped inside the room and turned to him, "Sasuke, this is your fiancee, Karin Aki and this is her mother, Koran Aki." Sasuke knew who they were, Koran designed very fashionable and popular lingerie. Sasuke clenched his jaw. He wanted to so badly yell at his father for planning a marriage behind his back. He looked over to his "fiancee".

She wore a purple silk dress that stopped at her ankle and white heels. She had red eyes and wore small brimmed glasses and her hair was in a unusual style. Sasuke had to admit, she was indeed beautiful but she wasn't what he was looking for in a woman. "Both of them will be joining us for supper tonight." His father grabbed Madam Koran's hand and helped her up and kissed her hand. She smiled before turning her attention to Sasuke, "He's a fine boy, Fugaku." She said, "Mind if I talk to you and your wife in the other room about planning the marriage." Both of his parents agreed and left into the other room.

After they left it remained silent. "Sasuke, come sit by me." He heard her say. He looked at her, "I'm fine standing up." He said tucking his hands in his black trousers, looking the other way. He heard her raised up from the sofa and the soft clicking sound of her heels walking toward him. He then felt her grabbed his arm and start pulling him toward the sofa and pull him down beside her. He glared at her but then raised brow when he saw her take off her glasses.

She looked back at him, her eyes glazed over with lust. Feeling uncomfortable, he leaned away from her, she followed his movements and laid a hand on his leg, inches away from his crotch. He felt this and immediately took one of his hands out his pocket and grabbed her hand placing it back on her lap. He looked at her, "Don't do that." He said, his voice laced with irritation. She made a excited squeal, "Don't be like that. My mother and your father are expecting children from us, mind as well get started." Her hand moved from her lap and was on the move to put her hand on top of his crotch.

He stopped her hand again and this time he held a man-like grip on her wrist, enough to bruise. Just at the very moment, the door to the other room swung open, revealing his father, mother and Koran. Sasuke noticed his mother's eyes narrow at Karin's hand that was little too close to his privates. Karin quickly snatched away her hand, also noticing the way her eyes narrowed. His father cleared his throat, relieving the tension from the room. "Sasuke, we will talk about the arrangement at dinner, " he looked at the watch on his arm, "And its time." He said.

Sasuke jumped up from the couch and walked over to his mother, lending his arm out for her. She smiled, she was about to lace her arm around his before his father interrupted, "Sasuke, it would be best if you escort your fiancee to dinner." Sasuke frowned and so did his mother. "Just go." His mother mouthed to him. He gave a curt nod before turning back to his bride-to-be, who had a slight smile on her face. He walked to her and lending his arm out and she quickly laced her arm through his. He grunted when he felt her other hand grabbed his forearm pulling him closer and her resting her head on his shoulder.

Her mother smiled at them, "Alright then." She said. They all left and began to walk to the dining area.

As they arrived, people and nicely greeted them and the waiters had lead them to their table. Sasuke sat beside his mother while Karin sat very annoyingly close to him. His father and her mother sat in front of them. They ordered their food and waited. Sasuke looked at his father to see he was staring intensely staring at him, he did that same. "You and Karin will wed once we reach New York." He said. Sasuke's eyes slightly widen but then dropped into a glare.

"Why so early?" He gritted through his teeth. Fugaku closed his eyes

"Sasuke, as you might know, a year is left until I pass everything down to you. I want you both married as soon as possible and have children, Sasuke we don't know what the future holds, you could very well die later on without a heir, if your wondering about why do you have to have children." He had enough. He shot up from the table, frightening everybody at the table. Fugaku glared up at him.

"Sasuke, you're twenty-two years old, stop acting like a child!" He said standing up himself.

Sasuke's hand curled up into a fist, threateningly. "I'll stop acting like a child when you start acting like a father." He turned around and quickly left the dining area, oblivious to the fact his father's face had turned into shock. He ran up the grand staircase out onto the deck. He hissed when he felt the cold piercing air of the Atlantic Ocean hit his skin. He ignored it and made his way up to the upper area of the deck. He stopped and rested himself on the railings.

He ran a hand through his hair, he couldn't believe that he actually thought about hitting his father. He began to rub his temples, he hated when something like this happened. He always caught a headache when he was upset. It was silent for a couple seconds until he heard humming. He opened his eyes when he recognized the melody; it was the one his mother used to always sing to him to go to sleep. He looked down to where he heard it coming from. He saw girl reading a book, he could tell by her clothes she was third-class. He raised a brow when he saw the shade of color her hair was; pink. He shrugged his shoulders before closing his eyes; listening to it.

After about a minute of listening to her. His eyes became heavy with sleep. As he closed them, "Hey, sir?" His eyes snapped opened and looked at the girl below him to see she was smiling up at him, "I hope my humming didn't make you tired."

~O~

Sakura woke up to hear snoring all around her. She moan softly, she had to get the sleep loudly roommates, huh? She lifted from her bed, stretching and yawning before looking at the window. It was already nightfall; she was sleep all day. She looked at her watch; it was only a quarter past nine. The party goers must of been sleep by now or eating. She turned on the light, hearing groans and grunts from her roommates. She gave a silent sorry before going through her bag and taking out her favorite book, 'The Turn of the Screw'. She was a major fan of ghost stories. She turned off the light before walking out into the hall.

She was surprised to see everything that littered the hall had been cleaned up, making it much more easier for her to walk through without tripping. She walked past the third-class dining, she wasn't as hungry, she had a big lunch before arriving on the ship. As she hit the last of the corner, she narrowed her eyes questioningly, where could she go to get to the deck? She turned to her right and began walking down there, she smiled when she saw the staircase. She gave a mental note about learning the ship's interior routes.

As she walked onto the deck, she shivered. It was freezing, she wore only a blue long skirt and a white long sleeve shirt tucked in her skirt. She was thankful that she also brought her coat with her. She searched around for a place to comfortably sit and read her book. She smiled when she saw a well-lite place right under the upper deck.

She sat down and opened her book and began humming a melody her mother used to always sing to her. As she continued, something told her to look up. She did and saw a man drifting to sleep. She slightly laughed, "Hey, sir?" She said. She saw his eyes snap open and looked down at her surprised, "I hope my humming didn't make you tired." She said with a amused edge. He closed his eyes and smirked.

She heard him mumble something under his breathe. "Huh?" She yelled up. She couldn't hear him one bit. "Why don't you come down here." She yelled up. She saw him shrug his shoulders and turned and walked away. Before she knew, she saw a approaching dark figure turn the corner of the steps. She stood up to greet him. That's when he came to light and she blushed. He was extremely handsome, it practically left her speechless.

He looked at her exactly the same way, "She's beautiful." He said to himself. She shook her head. "Hello, I'm Sakura Haruno." She said lending her hand out for him to shake it. He took her hand but he didn't shake it, he kissed it making her blush deepen, he then looked up at at her with his eyes that were as black as the night sky, "Sasuke Uchiha."

So what you think; bad or good? I have always wanted to make a story with involving the Titanic.

I've been thinking about how I'm going to fit four days into the story, you know Titanic had three days and a half sailing before it hit the iceberg. Yea so what I've been thinking was fitting five chapter into one day like the next chapter is April 11, 1912 and that day will have five chapters, do yu get what I'm saying. I'm horrible at explaining stuff.

Please review.
