Chapter 1
Welcome Back teme..
I opened my eyes as I heard a loud beeping noise that had been irritating me for the past two minutes, indicating that the cursed day was here.
I sat up on my futon and glared slightly at the clock that reminded me that it was almost time to reunite with the people I had once left behind, though I had never really left them behind for I always had them on my mind and constantly thought of them.
After a few moments, I got up and headed to the shower, shutting the door behind me. I washed myself and brushed my teeth in preparation for the "punishment" the hokage had given me.
After I had gotten dressed I walked out of my room and toward the kitchen, inclining my head once when I passed Fugaku.
"...I'm sure that it will be fine mother. I don't beleive that the other ninja will want to kill Sasuke when they see him later today." I heard Itachi's voice as I entered the kitchen and grabbed a peice of toast.
"Ohayo Sasuke" greeted Mikoto as she dried the dishes and smiled at me. Looking at her I couldn't help but curl my lips up slightly.
"Ohayo" I said plainly as I grabbed some tea and sat across Itachi. "Dakara otouto, how will you-"
"Sasuke-teme!! Come on lets go!! We'll be late if you don't get over here quick!" came Naruto running inside the house and yelling. He stopped as he saw Fugaku enter the room and grinned sheepishly. Mikoto giggled slightly and waved at him as she continued with the dishes.
"C'mon teme, we have to make it to school on time our else granna Tsunade will have our heads." I ignored Naruto's complaints and drank my tea as Itachi glared at me slightly as if telling me to leave with the loud mouthed blonde.
"Uugggh!! Let's go!!" groaned Naruto as he grabbed my kunai holster and scrolls from the table in front of him.
" Everyone knows you're back and they're ready to see you again and Sakura chan is-" I slammed down my cup before Naruto could finish.
Flashback
I looked to the door as Naruto entered and shut it closely behind him. I got up from the bed and swung my legs over it. 'why am I even here. I came here of my own free will without any injuries and she puts me in the hospital.'
"Hey teme.. glad to see you back." said Naruto trying to break the ice as he made way towards the bed. I inclined my head once in acknowledgement as he grinned.
"granny Tsunade told me about your 'punishment'. Doesn't sound too bad since all of Konoha's genin and chunin go to Fire High. " he said trying to encourage me.
I scoffed lightly and smirked at him. "I'm sure you're still the same loser you were before though." Naruto grinned and held his hand out to me as I grabbed it and shook his hand lightly.
"Heh, I've gotten much better than you think teme, I'm higher in rank and I'm sure I can beat your ass anyday as soon as you get out of here! " I smirked slightly at him as he continued.
"Everyone's dying to see you and Sakura chan's really been- " I looked up at him and gave him a cold stare. He stopped mid sentence and gave me a questioning look.
"I don't want to see her Naruto. I don't want to talk to her..not yet" I whispered out the last part as he nodded. "Don't talk about her or name her until I see her."
End Flashback
I had told him that day not to talk about her but it seems he had forgetten. He rubbed the back of his head and grinned slightly.
"Gomen Sasuke, I forgot." I grunted as I got up and grabbed my things from Naruto. Without a word he followed me out and towards the village center.

"Alright so I guess I'll see you after class then." Sakura nodded as she closed her locker and turned to Sai.
" Just bring what you think you'll need and we'll get started at five o'clock. Is that ok?" "Fine with me." replied the arist ninja smiling as Sakura gave a slight frown. "Wipe it off. I can tell it's fake." Sai sighed slightly as he returned to his usual emotionless expression.
"I 'm sorry, still working on it." he said as he pionted at one of the books in his hand. Sakura nodded as she smiled at him.
"Look! There's Sa..nobody..hehe no one." Naruto said as we enetred the west wing and noticed Sakura and the unfamiliar ninja there. I tried to avoid eye contact with them but before I could avert my gaze Sakura caught it.
She looked at me momentarily and then looked down to her feet as she gave a short nod as a response to something my 'replacement' had said. I continued to watch as she avoided me and tried hard not to look at me and apparently Naruto saw me and he sighed.
"She's just been worried about you teme..and you avoiding her isn't easy for her after we spent so much time searching for you." I inclined my head to Naruto's words and continued to walk with him
Naruto walked along the hallways beside me as if nothing was wrong but I wasn't as quite at ease as he was. Everywhere we turned people stopped what they were doing to stare at us, or better said to stare at me.
I ignored them all on the way until I caught glimpse of Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji. I inwardly cringed when I laid eyes on Ino, I prepared myself for the 'Sasuke kuns' and hugs of death but they never came. She smiled lightly as she saw Naruto and I headed their way.
"Hey Shikamaru!! Ready for our sparring and training session with a certain someone to improve attacks with your chakra later today?!" asked Naruto beside me excitedly as Shikamaru sighed and placed a hand on his head.
"Sorry Naruto but I can't go, the Hokage wants me to investigate and look through some papers with her." Naruto nodded at him "It's ok I'll just do it by myself then."
I shifted my feet and stared in boredome as Naruto talked with Choji. "hey there," I looked to my left to see Ino standing beside me. I nodded at her as she continued.
"How are you? It's been a long time since you were last here and-" Ino cut herself off when we all felt a burst of chakra. She mouthed out the word bye and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"C'mon teme!! time for class!!" I heard Naruto call out as he ran past the corner. I sighed and began to walk to where ever he was going.
Sakura PoV
"So, I guess I'll see you tonight then.." asked Sai as he picked up his brushes and scrolls. I nodded my head and gave him a faint smile.
"Don't be late though ok Sai chan?" I asked teasing him of his nickname. He narrowed his eyes but then a smile appeared on his face.
"Don't worry Hag, I'll make sure to be there on time, don't wanna keep an old person waiting now do we?" replied the artist nin and disppeared quickly before I could even move to land a smack upside his head. I smiled to myself and left for class.
Well that's chapter 1 of my first fic, I re-wrote this chapter because I was reading it one day and noticed that since the very beggining Sasuke was WAY off so yeah thats rlly bad and if I had to summarize how this chap USED to be that word would be...bleh its still not great but I couldn't write alot to make it a whole lot betteror else I would be adding unnesesary things and Id be putting the chaoter after it in it so Its a little better and I also re-wrote this chap along with a few others. I hope its better now and you all enjoy
