------Uchiha Sasuke woke up to the shrill sound of his alarm clock. He groaned. Why does school have to start so early? he thought to himself. He sat up in bed. It's a beginning of a new school year already. Now I'm a sophomore. No more freshman crap. He smirked. The girls are probably cuter than last year's bunch. He got out of bed, stretched, and hopped into the shower.

------Uzimaki Naruto heard his alarm clock scream at him. But he was already awake and eating. (Eating ramen, of course.) This year of High school is so going to be awesome. He thought. Really, the girls are gonna be so much hotter than last year. How fun…

After Sasuke got out of his shower, and was fully dressed, he strolled downstairs to his breakfast. He sat down, and started chomping on a piece of toast.

"Hello, Sasuke!" His mother greeted. (Ok, I know his mother and father are dead, but…it's a fanfiction.)

"Hn," Sasuke responded.

"What's with you teenagers and saying 'hn' as a greeting?" Sasuke's father asked.

"Hn." Sasuke repeated.

His father just rolled his eyes, and went back to reading the newspaper.

"So…" Mrs. Uchiha tried to start up a conversation, "Are you excited to start the new school year, Sasuke?"

Sasuke looked up at his mother. He shrugged. As if to say 'I don't know' or something.

Sasuke glanced at the clock on the wall next to him. 7:10 it read. Crap. I'm gonna be late. Sasuke thought as he stood up, threw his bag over his shoulder, and walked outside.

"Have a great first day of-"

Sasuke slammed the door shut. I might as well start my trip to school.

Naruto stood up from his unusual breakfast. Time for school, time for school, time for school…he kept repeating to himself as he hopped down from the railing of his apartment. (Remember, no family –wipes away fake tear-)

Naruto walked to Konaha High. On his way to school, the blonde saw someone he recognized. He smiled. "Hey! Teme!" he waved to no other then Sasuke.

Sasuke glanced up to see his idiot of a best friend. He put his hand up in the air as if to wave. Naruto walked over to his friend.

"What's up?" Naruto asked.

"Hn." He responded.

Naruto laughed, "Is that all? Well…we're sophomores this year…isn't that interesting?"

Sasuke gave Naruto a quick glance. "No."

"Ha! You said a word!"

"Yeah. I know."

"Hm…hey, you know what?"

"What?"

"The girls this year are so going to be smokin' hot."

"Yep…"

"Well..." Sasuke said as they reached Konaha High. "Let's get the school year over with already."

"Yay!" Naruto yelled. "Sophomore year, here I come!" Naruto ran past the fountain, and to the front doors of Konaha High. He ran inside.

"What an idiot." Sasuke said to himself as he walked to the front doors. But he was stopped. "Hello, Sasuke." A familiar voice greeted.

He looked up. "Hey." He greeted.

It was Ino Yamanaka. The captain of the cheerleader squad. "What's up?" She smiled brightly.

Sasuke kept walking. "Nothing." He said as he walked past the fountain.

Ino walked beside him. "Nice day, huh?" she attempted to start a conversation.

Sasuke walked straight up to the front doors, went inside in search for one of his friends. Ino was still at his side. "I'm gonna go, ok Sasuke? Don't miss me too much! Goodbye!"

Ino skipped off. "Finally," Sasuke said under his breath.

(Later)

Naruto practically ran up and down the halls to find his first class. I hope there's at least one hottie in my class…he thought. He found his classroom. "Room 401. Yep. First period, Math." Naruto never liked math, but it was the first day of school, and he wanted to see everyone in his class. He placed his hand on the doorknob, and slowly turned it. The door opened. "Hello, class!" Naruto greeted. The whole math class turned to face the idiot who yelled. Naruto recognized a couple of people. "Hm…Let's see," he said, "I have…Choji Akamichi…Shikamaru Nara, and…oh, Tenten and Ino Yamanaka. Nice." He nodded to his friends as he took his seat next to Shikamaru. "Hello, Shikamaru." He greeted.

"Nice entrance." Shikamaru said sarcastically.

"Yep. Hey, check it out; we have two major hotties in our class. How lucky are we?"

"So very lucky." Shikamaru (again) said sarcastically.

"Hey, do you think I can get a few digits?"

"You mean their phone numbers?"

"Yeah…"

"Sure, have fun."

"I will!" Naruto stood up as he walked over to Tenten first. She was wearing a T-shirt that read: 'Shoes are a girl's best friend,' and jean shorts. Of course she had her hair up in her trademark 'panda' style.

"Hello," Naruto greeted.

She glanced up at Naruto. Her face brightened up. "Oh hi, Naruto." She smiled.

Naruto smiled back. "Hey…I was wondering something…"

"Yeah?"

"Did you just get out of jail today?"

"Huh?"

"Cuz, it's gotta be illegal to look that good!"

Tenten was silent. An anime sweat drop formed on the back of her head. "I'm guessing you got that pick-up line from a cereal box…?"

Naruto stared at her. "Uh…I gotta go, bye Tenten!" Naruto turned around and headed over to Ino's spot. How did Tenten know where I get my pick-up lines?

He approached Ino. She was wearing a tight-fitting light pink shirt, and a light pink mini-skirt. She had on very dark eye-liner, too. Just to top it all off. Of course, her hair was tied up in her usual high pony-tail.

"Hey, Ino!"

Ino turned around from talking to a girl Naruto had never met.

"Oh…well if it isn't Sasuke's friend, Naruto, isn't it?"

"Uh…yeah, that's my name."

"Thought so. Now if you don't mind, I'm kinda in a conversation now. So, unless you have news from Sasuke, I don't want to hear it."

Naruto was quiet. "Never mind." He obviously was shocked how snippy Ino could be.

She giggled. "Good." She said in a fake cheery tone.

Naruto walked away. "Me-ow, I didn't think she was that bitchy."

(With Sasuke)

Sasuke walked into his new classroom. "Oh joy…look who we have here," he scanned the room for at least one of his friends. "Neji, Shino, Temari, Kabuto and Lee..."

"Oh my God! Look who's in our class!" Lee squealed.

"Who?" Kabuto turned around from talking to Neji.

Lee smiled. "Well, there's another hottie to add to my list! Yay! Now there are four cute guys!"

"Lee, you're so gay…" Temari rolled her eyes.

"You know what, little-miss-fan-girl? You can just stop being ugly!" Lee said in a high-pitched girly voice.

"That was the worst come back ever." Temari said annoyed.

"Your face is the-"

"Lee. Shut up." Sasuke said sitting down next to Temari and Kabuto.

"Whatever." Lee said snapping his fingers.

"Hey, Sasuke," Neji said trying to get his attention.

"What?"

"Did you hear the latest news?"

"No…"

"There's gonna be a new hot chick."

"Are you sure she's hot?"

"Positive. Her name is Haruno Sakura. She has pink hair, and she's really brainy."

"How do you know?"

"Because, she has a high record from her old school. She's transferring."

"Awesome."

Temari chimed into the conversation. "You'll probably snag her, Sasuke."

He smirked. "Yep. I probably will."

Temari rolled her green eyes, and went back to chatting with Kabuto.

"CLASS! THAT'S ENOUGH TALKING!"

"GUY-SENSEI!!" Lee greeted.

"HELLO CLASS! I AM KNOWN AS GUY-SENSEI! AND I WILL BE YOUR HISTORY TEACHER THIS YEAR!"

Oh joy…Sasuke thought to himself as he watched the back Temari's head. He smirked. A new girl…fun…"

(Back with Naruto)

"Hey, Naruto," Choji said through a mouth full of chips.

"Yeah, what?"

"Did you hear the news?"

"You mean besides Ino being bitchier than before?"

"No…"

"Then nope. I haven't heard anything."

"Well, there's gonna be a new girl!"

"You sure it's a girl?"

"Positive!"

"How do you know?"

"I heard it around school."

"Oh…"

(Lunch time!!)

Sasuke, Naruto, Shino, Neji, Kiba, and Kabuto all sat at the same table. All of the teenagers talked back and forth.

"So…when's the new chick coming?" Sasuke asked curiously.

"I think she's arriving today. Later on in the day…I'm not sure." Shino answered.

Sasuke turned his head to face Naruto.

"Hey, Naruto, did ya hear the news?"

Naruto smiled. "Yeah! There's gonna be a hot new chick coming."

"Yep."

"So, Sasuke," Neji started, "Are you going to lay some moves on her as soon as she arrives? Or are you going to wait?"

"I'm not sure." Sasuke smirked. "I'll snag her right off the bat though. Don't worry about that."

Naruto looked at Sasuke with an 'I don't think so' kinda look. "What do you mean 'snag her right off the bat'? I'll get her, Sasuke. Don't worry."

"Huh?" Sasuke folded his arms across his chest.

"Really, Sasuke! You already have enough girls that would kill to be at your hands. I'll take Miss Sakura off your hands for you."

"Uh, Naruto, I'll, obviously, get her first."

"No I will, Sasuke."

"I will."

"I will!"

"I called her first!"

"You wanna bet?"

"Hell yeah!"

"Fine, it's a deal."

"Right."

"Ok, the deal is this…Whoever gets Sakura to go out with them first wins."

"Yeah, and the loser has to…"

"Say he's gaymosexual over the intercom! In front of the whole student body!"

"And, he has to say, 'I like ponies, and unicorns'!"

"And rainbows!"

"And pink flowers!"

"He also has to say that he's in love with Lee!"

"Eww…Lee?"

"Yes! Because Lee's gay!"

"Oh…I knew that."

"So…it's a deal?"

"Deal!"

Sasuke and Naruto shook hands to confirm the bet.

"It starts tomorrow."

"Uh huh."

(After Lunch…)

(Naruto and Sasuke are in the last period of the day.)

"Sasuke," Naruto whispered to Sasuke. (Who was a seat in front of him) "Sassssssuke, hey, Teme!"

"What?" Sasuke hissed, annoyed.

"When does the bet start?"

"When Sakura arrives."

Naruto gave Sasuke the thumbs up. "Got it!"

Sasuke turned around to face the front of the classroom.

There was a knock at the door.

Their teacher, Kurenai, walked over to the door. "Class, you are allowed to talk while I tend to this message."

The teenagers all started chatting at once. Including Naruto and Sasuke.

"When is she coming?" Naruto asked eagerly.

"I'm not sure, Naruto."

"Well, I want to know how exactly hot she is."

"We'll see her when we see her."

Naruto's eyes went big. "Damn, she's hot!"

"What?"

Naruto pointed to the front of the room. Sasuke turned around.

"Class," Kurenai said loudly, "I'd like your attention, please."

The class was quiet as the teenagers turned their heads.

Kurenai smiled. "Thank you, now I'd like you to meet a new student. Her name is Haruno Sakura."
