Chapter One
"Well, this sucks."
Sasukes fingers were laced behind his head, his chair back on two legs with his foot steadying himself against the table. He itched the back of his black hair.
"That's what you get for talking out of line," said the teacher in front of the room, busy reading a book at his desk, "this is detention of course, Mr. Uchiha."
Sasuke just closed his eyes, irritated with the other man's words. "Sorry that I have the right to keep an opinion," he muttered under his breath. Little did he care if the teacher heard what he said next, which he did, "damn old fart."
Mr. Sarutobis face flushed with held back anger, "Seems like you just want to be in trouble. Another detention tomorrow, meet me after school in this classroom again."
Sasuke just shrugged. Not like I have anything better to do, he thought. He leaned back into his chair repeatedly which made some squeaking noises as he did so.
"Sit in your chair like a normal person," said Mr. Sarutobi, the color of his face toning back down to the pale almost grayish color.
Sasuke did as he was told, setting the chair back on all fours. He looked over his shoulder to the clock. He always wondered why they had set up the clock way in the back of the room. Maybe so they can tell when a student's not paying attention to the teacher, he thought before turning back. And he knew was right because was looking right at him.
"It's time for me to leave," Sasuke said, picking his back-pack from the floor on the side of his desk. He pushed his chair in and left the room, without another word from either him or the teacher.

Sasuke was walking down the long and quiet hallways of Konoha High School. He looked down to his shoes as he walked, his hands stuffed into the pockets of his hoody. It was a thin blue cotton sweater like jacket with the hood up, hiding the one ear phone in his right ear. It was just in case a teacher walked by and had some heart attack just because he wanted to listen to some music after school.
He felt something hit him against his chest then next thing; someone was on the floor in front of him, kneeling down to gather their fallen notebooks. He bent down and mumbled a "sorry" picking up a notebook closest to him then stood up. The girl, as he now noticed, stood up too and fixed her hair before grabbing the notebook he had handed to her.
She was smaller than him, her hair straight and shoulder length with an unusual pink color. Her eyes were big and a light green. The girl's clothes were average, nothing flashy but not too dreary, consisting of a brown shirt with a restaurants name in pink text and skinny blue jeans with average white tennis shoes.
She looked up at him and smiled, "I'm really sorry, it was my fault," she picked some of the papers up with her right hand, gesturing it, "I was busy looking through some papers about my schedule."
Sasuke nodded then pulled back his hood, plucking the headphone from his ear. "You're new here, then?"
She just nodded with a weird gazing look on her face. She started nervously playing with one of the colorful elastic bracelets on her wrist.
"This is my first day, I got here late though," she looked into his eyes with that strange stare again, "What's your name? Why didn't I see you in my class, I mean, this is a small school, right?"
Sasuke looked away from her. She was starting to weird him out, "I was in in-school detention today and my name's Sasuke."
She stared at him, her facial expression looking confused as if to say, "and?" Sasuke just looked back at her with the same look. This is the time the other person should say their name, right? He wanted to say but that would be sort of rude, plus it was the girl's first day.
She kept staring then finally said, "Well, what's your last name?"
Sasuke just looked at her weirdly.
"What do you mean?" he asked, now wishing he had just said sorry and left.
She smiled at him with an eyebrow raised, as if he was a two year old who was trying to walk but kept falling down, "You know, your last name, the name your parents probably have."
Okay. Now this girl was pissing him off. "Oh yeah, that last name, it's Uchiha," he said, playing along with her sarcasm.
She let out a one syllable laugh, "Ha, you mean your name's Sasuke Uchiha? Like the name of the police here?"
Sasuke wondered if his eye was twitching right now. "Yeah, Sasuke Uchiha."
The girl nodded once then extending her hand, "Nice to meet you Sasuke Uchiha, my name's Sakura Haruno."
"Sakura? Like 'cherry blossom'?"
She just smiled then clapped, forgetting waiting for him to shake her hand, "Yay, you remembered it!"
He was getting freaked out even more. He could tell that she wasn't kidding.
Sasuke just adjusted his headphone back into his ear, not bothering to put the hood back up. As he was walking away he felt a hand on his shoulder and had a reflex by jerking it off. It was the girl again.
Sakura smiled, her head tilted to the side slightly, "Where are you going so soon?"
Sasuke just closed his eyes and took a deep breath. This girl, Sakura, was annoying the hell out of him. He opened his eyes to see her still staring at him with her large green eyes.
"I'm going home." He said, turning around again.
"Really? How do you get home than?" she asked, stepping towards his turned back.
Sasuke began to walk away from her replying, "Guess I'm gonna walk now." Mom didn't allow me to drive it to school today as punishment.
He can hear how her footsteps behind him stopped and he almost gave a sigh of relief. Maybe the annoying girl finally got a clue.

The house was empty Sakura noticed. But why would she think any different? It always was. She walked to and sat on the couch in the middle of the small living room. She ran her hand along the broken fabric, her fingers pressing deep into the holes running along it. The holes had been done by a knife. Sakura stood slowly then walked up the dirty stairs, kicking at the dust with her feet.
She wrapped her hand around the door knob, lingering it there for a few moments, then twisted it and stepped into her dark room. Someday, she would finally let someone walk into it with her. She already had one name in mind, but she wondered whether or not he would appreciate the chance to stand in the room with her. Her dark sanctuary.
Sasuke covered his open mouth with his hand, yawning into it. He sat up on his bed, wiping his eyes with his hands, turning his head to the front of his room when he heard the door open. His mom stepped inside.
Everyone had always fussed of how Stan looked so much like his mom. They both had the same rich Japanese black hair, coal onyx eyes and pale skin. But they were different. She had a kind smile while he had a constant scowl. Her eyes where always warm and welcoming while his had a shine of mischief traced into his.
"Sasuke, honey, are you awake?" she said, even though she knew the answer.
Sasuke just nodded before standing up and lifting his shirt over his head, blinding for a second or two from having the fabric in front of his face. Once he had it all the way off he noticed that his mom was gone, the door still open.
He walked into his bathroom, brushing his teeth and hair then walked back to his bedroom and fished taking and putting his clothes on. While he was in the middle of tying his last shoe when he saw a shadow move against his door. Stan tightened the knot of his shoe lace and picked up his back-pack before walking through the door. There, in the hallway and leaning against the wall was his older brother, Itachi.
Their relationship with each other had always been sour, or rather after Sasuke awoke one day as a pre-teen and realized how much of a real bastard Itachi was. Before that, he would idolize his older brother and was now embarrassed from the thought that he would say it to his face too.
Itachi adjusted his arms to place them crossed against his chest when he saw Sasuke.
"What do you want?" asked Sasuke.
"I can't stand in the hallway in peace?" retorted Itachi.
Sasuke just shut his door with his foot, slung his backpack over his shoulder and walked downstairs silently. He grabbed the toast his mom had made on a plate that also had eggs scrambled on it. He took a bite then walked out the door and to the direction of the school, deciding to walk instead of drive.

"Did you get any sleep last night?"
"What do you mean?" asked Sakura, twirling a mechanical pencil in her hand.
Ino was leaning into her own desk and staring quizzically at Sakura's face, "Well, you have bags under your eyes and you just look, well, tired," she smiled nicely, "y'know?"
Sakura put her hands onto her cheeks in embarrassment, "Is it really that bad?"
Ino laughed and shook her head. She began to tie up her long bleach blonde hair into a pony tail.
"It looks fine, really," she said.
"Thank god." Sakura said, turning her head when the door to the homeroom was opened.
There walked in the boy she had met yesterday, his expression oozing with boredom. His eyes flickered to hers for barely a second then looked away.
No, look at me.
He walked to his desk which was by a blonde haired immature guy, that instantly began talking to him, which meant they were probably friends.
Look at me!
Sakura took the pencil that she was playing with and accidentally punctured it past the skin in her other hand's palm. Ino, who was looking away at the time, turned back to find the small but bloody wound on Sakura's hand. She squealed very loudly, putting her hands up to her face, "Oh my god, Sakura! What happened?"
