Disclamer: I do not own Naruto.
Chapter One: My not-so Fairytale(Introduction)
Once upon a time, there lived a drop dead gorgeous princess. She was the most prettiest girl ever, but was very sad. She was trapped in a castle because of a wicked witch. Then her very handsome prince charming saved her and swept her off her feet. They ran into the sunset with his white horse and lived happily ever after.
WRONG!!!
My life is far from a fairy tale with a happy ending. Okay, so it's not the worst life ever, I mean, I have both my parents, I'm not poor, and I get a proper education, but it's not the most exciting life either. Nothing exciting ever happens… ever. It's always been simple and boring.
I wouldn't necessarily say that my family is very tight bonded. They love me, yes, as I love them, but we struggle to show it. We rarely ever have family dinners because of my parent's busy schedule. They make sure I'm a good girl, and I make sure everyone is happy and alive. It's not that they don't care, it's just they're busy, and I've learned to understand that since I was almost eleven. My mom's an ER doctor and does night shift, so she sleeps during the day and goes to work at night. My dad travels on buisness trips all over the world and all year round, promoting his buisness to the world. As for me, I'm an only child, I go to school like any other kid my age. My life is that bland.
I have yet to find my prince charming, and I do believe he's out there. I'm pretty sure that I will never meet him in highschool, since I'm probably the most unpopular girl EVER and there'd be no chance for someone to like me.
My junior year in highschool starts in two days. My last two days of summer, I know what you're thinking, I should be spending it out hanging out with friends, but unfortunately I hardly have friends. My only friends would be Hyuuga Hinata and Rock Lee. Hinata is a fragile little teen. She's frightened by mostly everything and is extremely shy. She barely talks to me and I'm her best friend! If she wasn't so shy, I know she could've made it in the "in" crowd. She has jaw-dropping looks and a great personality. Plus, her cousin Hyuuga Neji is one of the most popular guys in the whole school.
Lee is, um, different?? He has his undying love for me which is so annoying when he yells in the halls, "My dearest cherry blossom, I soon will marry you!" He dresses and acts very creepy and has the ugliest haircut and eyebrows. If I didn't know any better I'd think he actually was gay. But don't get me wrong he's such a good friend. When I'm crying he stays silent and waits 'til I'm done sobbing and listens to every muffled word I said. He'd be the one to hold back my hair if I was throwing up in a toilet from too many drinks at a party, if I was ever invited to any and plus I don't drink.
I seemed to have forgotten to introduce myself. My name is Haruno Sakura. I have unusual petal pink hair(I know, WTF?!) and emerald green eyes. Weird combo, right? I'm 5'3"; I'm quite petite. My favorite color is red. Like anyone would care to know any of this. My school would be, you guessed it, Konoha Highschool.
My school population is somewhat like a bureaucracy. The popular people pretty much "rule the school". As for me, I am what you call… A loser. The bottom of the food chain. Whatever is a synonym for "loser", that's me. The A-list people consist of the infamous leader, the hottest (but heartless), Uchiha Sasuke, second in command, Sasuke's wing-man, the ramen-loving Uzumaki Naruto. Next in line, the eyes and ears of our school (Seriously, she's knows EVERYTHING that happens around the school), Yamanaka Ino. Fourth would be Neji Hyuuga(Hinata's cousin), he's cold-hearted and cares way too much abouthis hair. The genius of the group would be, none other than, Nara Shikamaru. Last, but not least, is Yume Tenten, she's a jock and sorta tomboyish, she's captain of most sport teams, she would actually be the nicest out of all of them, she actually talks to us!
I've always tried to look in from the sidelines, but it's not the same as actually being in the crowd. I want to know how it feels to be liked and admired. My plan is to rise up to the top of the pyramid this year. I mean, I don't want to leave my friends, I'll bring them with me.
During the summer I changed my wardrobe, trying to make my own signature style. I also cut a lot of my long locks. My hair used to be down to the small of my back. I cut it all the way to my shoulders for a new, clean look. Added to that, I got side swept bangs! Hopefully, appearance wise, I'll get noticed.
A/N: Chapter one is finished. Did you like?? Hope you did. R&R!!
