Chemistry Class

It was a quiet afternoon in Konoha High, as Sakura sat in her least favorite class of that year, chemistry.

It wasn't that it was all bad. Some things came easier than others, but the math in that class was both confusing and difficult.

"Ok class, what do we need to do in order to convert these from grams to milligrams," Anko sensei asked. She received nothing but blank glances and gurgling snores coming from the back of the room.

Hearing the snores, she rolled her eyes, and picked up a large stack of heavy books. 'You're so going to get it kid…' She dropped the books right next to the snoring person's head.

A rush of adrenaline swept through his body as he woke up. "Shikamaru, how many times have I told you not to sleep in class?" He shrank down in his chair out of fear. "Now do everyone a favor and tell us how to convert that!" She yelled, pointing at the board.

The class giggled at the poor Nara boy. Grudgingly he told them how to convert the grams into milligrams.

"Good, now as punishment for sleeping in my class, you will have the honor of being a tutor for one of my struggling students."

"What! You mean that wasn't punishment enough," under his breath mumbling troublesome woman.

"What did you just say," she growled. He sat straight up while looking her directly in the eye, "Nothing Anko sensei." "That's what I thought. Come to me after class, and I'll tell you who you shall be tutoring."

The rest of the class was uneventful. They did the same stuff, conversions. Shikamaru watched as one by one they seemed to understand what to do. There was one pink haired girl, however, that still didn't get it. Shikamaru let out a sigh just as the bell rang, signaling the end of class.

Anko sensei stood, opened the door to let them leave, but told Sakura to stay behind along with the said boy Shikamaru.

"Shikamaru, I am sure you have gathered who you will be tutoring. Sakura, I hope this isn't a problem for you. After all, 50 of your test is conversions."

Sakura shook her head, "No sensei, it isn't a problem," she said as she refrained from grinding her teeth. 'Damn it. Why did this have to happen to me! I'm usually so damn smart. What the hell!'

Little did Sakura know, Shikamaru was thinking the same. 'Why did it have to be me? Why do I have to tutor this troublesome woman? If she can't even figure this stuff out, she must be stupid. Damn it! Now I don't get to watch my favorite clouds.'

"Well, now that this has been situated, you two may leave. I expect that you actually make a real effort Shikamaru and Sakura. I'll be watching you."

Author Note: Sorry this is so short. It's been a while since I've actually had a moment to write anything on here at all. Though don't be surprised if it takes me a while to update again. Blame it on my stupid trigonometry class
