Chapter One
Naruto's POV
I knew I was in for it when I slipped on the wet floor at the food court with my ice cream cone in my hand. The last thing I can remember seeing before I did a half black flip is a very angry Sakura Haruno. When I looked up from the floor I saw her standing there with my Cold Stone ice cream all over her white Abercrombie t-shirt. My best friend Tenten ran over and helped me up. While she did that I stared at Sakura. She was still standing there; she looked at me then her shirt then at me again. Her face began to get red, wrinkles formed on her kinda big forehead, and she began to grind her teeth. I opened my mouth to apologize but she cut me off.
"LOSER!!" She shouted on the top of her lungs. I swear, every single person in the food court stopped and stared at the scene Sakura was making. "THIRTY DOLLARS! THAT'S HOW MUCH THIS SHIRT COST! THIRTY FUCKING DOLLARS!"
"I'm sorry…here I'll get you something to clean that up." I ran over to the nearest restaurant and grabbed a handful of napkins. I offered them to Sakura but she hit my hand away.
"Don't bother!" she said angrily.
"Hey look Sakura," Tenten said "I know you spend all of your college money on Abercrombie and shit, but it was an accident." It was obvious Tenten was getting irritated by the way Sakura was yelling at me. Tenten always got uber-protective of me. It was actually kinda embarrassing.
"It's okay Tenten," I said. "Here," I grabbed thirty dollars from my wallet "go buy a new shirt."
"Thank you," she said flipping here long pink hair behind her shoulder as she walked off. She went over to her table were the other popular kids, Sasuke and Ino sat. Sakura said something to Ino that made her get a wicked smile on her face. She looked over at me and laughed. Then she and Sakura walked off, Sasuke shortly followed. I had a feeling they were going to the store the bought all there clothing from.
"Come on Naruto," Tenten pulled at my orange jacket. We went over to my table. There sat my friends Hinata, Kiba, Shikamaru and Temari. We had all been tight since seventh grade in the one-act plays. Hinata had been a techie and the rest of us had been actors. We've been theatre nerds, drama freaks, or however you want to put since.
"That was hilarious," Kiba laughed "I hope that happens to her more often!"
"God knows he disserves it," Tenten said sling down into her chair next to Temari.
"I know right," Temari laughed "She such a bitch."
"And a slut," Tenten smiled "She keeps trying to hit on Neji."
Neji was Tenten's long time boyfriend. Like, they've been dating since the beginning of ninth grade and it's the beginning of eleventh. I can't really see why Sakura would hit on Neji though. First of all she supposedly madly in love with Sasuke (and so is Ino which doesn't really make since because they're supposed to be BFFs) And also, Neji's like the depressed rocker type. Like he plays guitar and writes songs and poetry. I always figured Sakura liked the dickhead jock type.
"Dude that is messed up" I smiled "Sakura just wants someone in her pants all the time."
"Hey," Kiba looked at me. "Do you have any money I could borrow?"
"No," I said crossing my arms on the table and resting my head on them. "I gave all my money to Sakura."
"Naruto," Shikamaru groaned "Why'd you do something so troublesome like that?" I shrugged "Now we're gonna have to pay for you and Kiba again. I don't think we have enough for a movie."
"Then we won't see a movie," Temari said "We'll just hang out at the mall."
"T-that sounds like fun," Hinata stuttered.
"Babe, you need to project your voice, I could barely hear ya." I smiled at Hinata and she looked down, her dark hair blocking her eyes.
"But she's right," Kiba smiled "We should go to Abercrombie and make fun of the people there."
"Yeah," I smiled. I stood up and mimicked what we would do "Stupid rich kids, buying ninety dollar jeans to make yourself feel better."
"Or something along those lines," Temari smiled.
"Okay, it's decided then," Tenten stood up "let's go."
We stood up and threw the remains of our food and walked to off to the stores in the mall.
Sakura's POV
I walked into Abercrombie still pissed about that Naruto kid. That shirt had been one of my favorites.
"And it was humiliating," I finished my rant about the event.
"He's such a loser, just get over it," Sasuke rolled his eyes and flipped his hair in that sexy way he does.
"Yeah," Ino agreed "Look at the people he hangs out with."
I nodded and went to the shirts. We spent some time in Abercrombie and I was feeling better, until I saw Naruto and Temari walk in the store.
"What are they doing her?" I hissed at Ino,
Ino shrugged "Who cares, now which pair of jeans?"
I tried to shrug off the fact that the two of them were in the same store. This wasn't even there style. They shopped at like, Hot Topic and dEliA's and other stuff like that. Why would they want to come in here? I kept trying to ignore them and focus on the clothes Ino and I were looking at. It was all good until Naruto and Temari started insulting people in the store.
"Wow Temari, how about these 100 dollar jeans?" Naruto said to her loud enough for everyone to him.
"Oh yeah, why buy three or four pairs of jeans at Old Navy when you could by one here?" she agreed.
"Yeah and this shirt with this wonderful logo, definitely worth thirty bucks," Naruto grabbed a green t-shirt of one of the shelves.
"29.95," Temari corrected. "But yeah, I would spend that much for a shirt with a logo."
The two continued to walk around the store criticizing the fashion, the prices, and the people. I got more and more annoyed until I couldn't stand it anymore. I walked over to the register to talk to the manager. I told him that the two of them were disrupting the peace. The manager walked over to them and told them to stop or he'd have to kick them out. It looked like they were more than happy to kick themselves out. I glared at them. And even after they left I still wasn't happy.
"I can't stand him," I said to Sasuke and Ino.
"Would you stop talking about them! They're losers we get it. Are you like obsessed?" Sasuke leaned on a wall and scowled.
Ino laughed "Yeah Sakura, you got feelings for that Naruto kid?"
I got really mad. "What the hell Ino. No! Gross!"
Soon the store closed and I went home. Over all the night was ok, I guess. At least I got a new shirt.
A/N: So re-reading this chapter it seems a bit piontless, but I'm jut trying to you know introduce the realshonships and stuff, so yeah. Also I'm having trouble with the pairings. I am a Shika/Ino fan, but I wonder if both the really popular girls end up with theatre kids it might be a little...wierd. I haven't diceded (did i spell that right?) yet. Oh, and one other I couldn't find a way to fit it into the chapter with out it being akward and unnecessary so I'm gonna say it here, in the story Temari is a lesbian. I thought it would seem a bit more real theatre if I had one or two gay kids (I might make Choji and/or Lee gay. Do't now yet). So, yeah, I hoped you guys enjoyed it. Writing the next chapter as we speak. Please review. Bye.
