Becoming clean

First meeting

Sakura did so not want this! She sat on a chair in the waiting room, waiting for her counsellor to come out. Her parents had arranged it. She did not need it, she could get herself out of it. It was just a stupid hobby of hers, she could stop anytime!

But deep, deep inside she knew she couldn't. She had tried three times, saying to her parents over and over again that she could, should and would stop; but now they had enough. They sent her to this counsellor who would make her stop doing drugs.

When she had asked her parents why they were sending her there they said that they didn't want a daughter that would do drugs. If the media or their clients would get wind of it, it wouldn't be good for their company, they said.

It was true and she knew it. Her parents were the bosses of Haruno Lawyers and they did everything like the law; and doing drugs was obviously against the law. She had an appointment at half past nine; way too early in her opinion but that didn't matter to her parents.

She shifted again, feeling her butt becoming sore from sitting on the hard chair. Then she shifted again; feeling very impatient and decided to get out her phone, looking for some entertainment.

"Good luck, Sakura-chan!" from Naruto. He was her best friend; he did drugs a year ago but it was only a few times and he stopped when his dad, the mayor of the city, had asked him to stop.

For Sakura wasn't it so simple; a friend of hers had given her the opportunity to try it out once a few years ago. She took it and found out it was magnificent. She forgot about all the trouble in her life, about her parents who asked way too much of her, school and other problems.

The door finally went open and a male, a few years older than she, came out the door. "Haruno Sakura?" asked he. She nodded and got out of her chair. She walked to the door and he extended his hand, looking at her. She reluctantly shook his hand, "Uchiha Itachi," said he and she met his eyes for a moment and then walked into the room. "Sit down." She did what she was told and chose to sit at the black leather sofa.

He sat in front of her and started speaking again. "I take it that you know why you're here?" She nodded but inwardly she snorted. Of course she knew.

Uchiha Itachi sighed when he looked at the girl in front of him, Haruno Sakura. The Harunos had asked for his help because their daughter couldn't stop with drugs while they wanted her to stop.

He already knew she should stop but if they had handled it a bit different it would have been a lot easier for him because now he has to work with a not so cooperative teenage girl with, strange enough, pink hair, while she didn't look like a punker.

"And I also know that you don't want to be here." Sakura looked at the male in front of her, doing a once over. He was handsome, concluded she, and obviously had the brains. She nodded again and muttered "Of course I don't want to". Itachi had caught it and decided to go further with that peace of information. "What makes you hate this so much?" asked he.

Sakura was silent for a moment. She knew she utterly hated it but she didn't exactly know why or how to say it, but she started speaking, even though it was a bit insecure.

Yes, she may use drugs, but she wasn't a girl with one of those massive egos you would see at school. She just was a timid girl with a bag full of problems and another bag full of heavy thoughts. "My parents, I guess," started she, "I mean, they were really nice persons but now they're forcing me to stop doing the one thing that would make me forget my problems."

It was silent for a bit until Itachi decided to speak again. "You said were, why did you use the past tense?" It wasn't hard for Sakura to think of that answer. "When I was born they were still there for me, but when I got older my parents business got bigger and more important and they lost their time for me; they saw other kids from the higher ups and decided that I should become like that one day, so they started asking more and more from me until the pressure became too big for me to handle."

She stopped for a moment, realising what she was doing. Why was she talking to this man? Why was she even telling all this? She had hated the idea of coming here but now that she was hear it was a bit like a relief. Like a weight fell of her shoulders.

"Sakura-san?"

O right, he was waiting for her to continue. "I'm sorry Uchiha-san. This wasn't exactly how I expected it to be. I loathed the idea of coming here but now it feels like a relief," she replied. She saw a smile gracing is face. "You may call me by my first name like I do with yours but I'm happy to hear that. I wasn't expecting you to be like this, this cooperative," he said. She raised an eyebrow. "Aa, sorry for that, I think I was judging you a bit."

And so they started their strange friendship, if you may call it that. Her parents where obviously utterly shocked when she was eating dinner smiling that night. They were even more shocked when she told them that she had another appointment tomorrow.
