NaruSaku-
Something About Them

HOLD IT THERE! This is a SEQUEL!! If you haven't read the first story (Something About US) GO NOW! IN MY GALLERY! If you had…then continue on. Thank you.
A baby bird lands perfectly on the sidewalk after falling from the tree. It chirp's, flutters its wings and glances back up at its family. Mama bird isn't too happy with her child. She jumps back and forth, over and over her chicks in the little brown nest as if to say, "Come back up, immediately young boy or else-." The chick sees her mothers furry and questions whether it could fly up in time. Its brothers and sister's laugh at their little-
"Miss Rena?"
Sakura blinked once, then twice and finally tore her eyes past the scenery outside the window. Only then did she notice she was the only remaining student in the class.
"Schools out." Her teacher noted.
A smile crept up on her face, "Ah, yes. Sorry." Gathering her belongings, Sakura stood up and stretched.
Oh, the day had gone by in a blink of an eye, despite the dull afternoon in core. But no matter, it was just the beginning, soon everything will pick up.
The teacher glared at his student, hoping to show his annoyance at the stalling. Sakura smiled, "See ya, tomorrow!" and dashed out the classroom door.
Unfamiliar faces fogged Sakura's sight. It wasn't just their faces, but their style. Everything here in California was different from anywhere else she's been. Their clothes, way of words, personality, and habits all were different.
But what shocked her the most was that this school, Hidden Leaf High, was outdoor! Classes were in bungalows, and the cafeteria outside…
It just amazed her.
Southern California had no snow, no tornadoes, no hurricanes, and very few rainstorms. But what it did have was earthquakes.
Sakura experienced her first one couple days back.
The city her group decided to settle in was L.A. Big population, little problem. Everyone here was unique in their own ways, so the fit just right in.
Sakura dogged a couple of skaters and made her way out the gate. Her 'house' wasn't far from here; she should be there in twenty minutes max.
So she proceeded, only stopping when she sighted him. Tall, handsome, and utterly foolish Naruto.
Uzumaki Naruto.
Her Naruto.
He stood against a rail and gazed out into the traffic as if it were an ocean. But she knew by his eyes that he was deep in thought. He had some changes throughout the months. More build up, more cautious; but what seriously changed him were those three lines on either side of his face.
Like whiskers.
She'd seen them before but on few occasions. These were permanent. Also, due to the undercover appearances her group overcame, Naruto went from wearing light colors to darker ones.
Sakura never care, as long as he was still Naruto. Except, she couldn't but help thinking the darker colors made him more sexy looking.
Feeling her cheeks turn red, Sakura looked away. She really needed to get going.
With one more glance at Naruto, Sakura walking on, disappearing with in the crowd.
Yes, Naruto was well aware of the pair of emerald green eyes staring at him; it just pained him that he couldn't do anything about it.
Throwing a huge yawn at those in front of him, he turned the opposite way Sakura had and stuffed his hands in his pocket, heading 'home'.
Sakura hadn't changed a bit. Over the weeks it seemed wise to dye Sakura's hair a different color. Who in the world had pink hair?
Unfortunately- and to Naruto's pleasure- it didn't work. Seemed like Sakura had a new power- the Power of Permanent Pink Hair.
Remembering that memory made Naruto grin. So yeah, they were undercover, couldn't talk to on another in public, not until they went 'home'. They also change their names; it wasn't long ago that every other commercial, their names and faces flashed across the TV screen. Naruto was named Kyle Prince while Sakura was Alice Rena. Do totally random people in LA. That was all.
The reason they chose to continue school was of college. Come on, just because of some problems in the East, didn't mean they had to stop being normal.
Naruto looked both ways before he crossed the street.
Any minute now…
Spotting the dark alley up ahead, Naruto looked back to see if any one was around or watching.
Good, coast is clear.
So he summoned his super speed.
This was the daily routine for the members of their group. Anytime you wanted to come home, delay, see if anyone was watching, then slowly, invisibly, make your way.
They had a special name also- The Fart Nuggets. It was silly, retarded, something no one took seriously. Once again, all part of the plan.
Naruto looked ahead and found the door open for him. In a split second, he was sitting on a couch, feet on the table and remote in hand.
"Hello guys!"
The door slammed close upon his arrival and the red headed Gaara glared back at his 'friend'. "Bastard…"
"Don't be jealous I got the speed."
The girl in the corner rolled her eyes and spoke up, "Please, with the knowledge in your head, I'm surprised you even know what jealousy is."
Naruto chose to ignore that. "Gaara, tell your sister that she's a bitch."
Someone just entered the living room, and Sasuke raised his eyes at the blonde guy, "Your home."
"Yeah…"
Sasuke shrugged and walked into the kitchen.
"By the way…" Naruto began to all people present, "Has Sakura arrived yet?"
"No." Temari snapped, "She has to take her time unlike your ass."
Another blonde entered the room, "She's right you know, Naruto."
"Ugh, shut up, all of you!"
Ino giggled and followed Sasuke's footsteps into the kitchen.
"Shikamaru should be here soon. Naruto open the back door." Gaara muttered. But before Naruto protested, Temari was up in a flash, disappearing behind the wall towards the back door.
Gaara sighed and leaned against the wall, his eyes shut. He was the leader of Fart Nuggets. This was his job, due to him turning down school.
"Kankuro is coming." He said. Naruto nodded and ran to the door he came from. Looking into the eye hole he saw the figure of a hooded man taking his time. Naruto left the door unlocked and ran towards the back door. Sakura should be here…
Shikamaru and Temari passed by too locked into a conversation to notice him. Well, what ever.
This was it. Team Fart Nugget.
Uzumaki Naruto. Haruno Sakura. Uchiha Sasuke. Subaku no Gaara and his siblings Kankuro and Temari. Nara Shikamaru. Yamanaka Ino.
Time passed and finally Gaara's voice came from the other room signaling Sakura's arrival. Naruto eased closer through the door, memorizing the exact way to open the door for this particular person.
Turn the knob clockwise…open a few inches…take four steps back. And finally she entered the room, slowly, carefully, closing the door very lightly. But all the peace was disturbed as Naruto came upon her like a prey and snatched her off the ground.
"Ah!" she screamed, surprised.
"Hey there, pinkie." He said in a low murmur. She always hated that nickname, sparking her fury. Naruto kicked the bedroom door open and walked in with her in his arms.
"Come on, Naruto. I just came, I wanna see everyone-" she began but was interrupted as he dumped her on their queen sized bed.
"But I miss you…" he whined, putting himself on top of her.
"That's what you always say!" she yelled. He brushed his lips across hers and gave a crooked smile. "Naruto…"
When his lips met hers, an electrifying shock went through them both, charging him further.
Sakura didn't want this…she was so damn tired…but he was so…hard to resist.
"Oh Alice…" Naruto sighed, licking her lips. Sakura growled, she hated that name. Alice Rena…when ever Naruto used it, it felt like she was being cheated on. Her name was Sakura.
He climbed down to her neck and slowly planted kisses there. Another thing Sakura hated was how he went slowly first.
She was too impatient.
And he knew it.
He nudged her sleeve over and began trailing light kisses on her shoulder, making her moan in pleasure. He grinned, she was so in.
Ah, but he only fell into her trap.
The pink head used a tiny amount of super strength and pushed Naruto of her, then made a 180 turn sending him under her. She playfully perched on his stomach, legs on either side.
"I said…" she smiled mischievously as he continued to stare at her wide-eyed. "I'm not in the mood."
With that she jumped off his bed and headed out the door.
At the beginning of fifth period the next day, it happened.
First of all, Sakura was sitting in the back middle row, next to a pale emo kid who couldn't stop cutting himself with the pencil, and another pale guy who kept on doodling in his notebook. It was a typical afternoon, teacher lecturing, students whispering…
Then she saw a spider. Her body tensed. It was on her desk, all black and creepy, sitting on her text book. It was probably the size of a quarter…
"Eek…" she shrieked. No one heard. So she bit the corner of her mouth and reached for her notebook.
She raised it in the air above the insect and brought it down with a slam.
"And so he returned- Miss Rena? What's the matter?"
Sakura hesitantly laughed and said, "Spider."
The teacher nodded, giving her an awkward look then went back to the lecture. Sakura sighed and pondered whether she should lift the notebook up. Nah…that'd be disgusting. So she settled with leaning back in her chair. Great she missed half the lecture.
Sakura shifted positions on her desk and checked to see if her shoes were tied-
She froze.
"Ah…" a mouse, or rat, what ever, sat underneath her desk, beady black eyes gazing up at her in suspicion. Just like the spider it was black, nasty-
"AHHH!!" Sakura pushed off her chair and ran to the wall, pointing at her spot. The whole class jumped in surprise and moved to see her. The teacher looked abashed.
"What is it? Another spider?" he said in his thick accent, walking to her desk.
"N-n-no! A rat!" Sakura squeaked.
The teacher glared at her, "We do not have rats, young lady."
"I saw one! Under my desk! Look!" Many girls around the classroom shrieked and ran farthest away from Sakura's desk while the guys moved in to get a closer look.
The teacher kneeled down, "There is nothing here, Miss Rena."
"Of course, it must have ran off somewhere else!" Sakura pleaded.
The teacher sighed, "It could have been a misunderstanding. Settle down everyone. Get back to your seat." He told her.
Sakura stared, disbelieving at her senior. He wants her to sit back in that seat?
"No!" she yelled.
He rolled his eyes and ordered the kid who drew to take Sakura's seat. As the guy got up, Sakura and he exchanged glanced. His eyes were pure black, hair black and face expressionless. It didn't seem like he minded…
Sakura weakly walked over to the boy's desk and sat down while everyone went back to their previous spots.
"Before our…little disturbance…I was talking about..." his voice trailed away, as Sakura's eyes wandered to the boy who drew's desk.
At the moment he was sketching a picture of a snake…which made her wonder why the hell anyone would do such a thing.
She shrugged and pulled her knee to her chest and began paying attention. She was still getting glances from other students.
Something tickled…as if something were climbing up her leg. Sakura shook it once then twice, and realized her leg felt heavier than usual.
Surely it was all her imagination just like everything else that happened in this class…ah but…she scratched her leg, and found there was a bump….smooth….scaly…bump…
"AAAAAAAHHH!" she fell over her chair and shook around trying to get the snake off her leg. She kicked, slammed, flung her leg everywhere.
"MISS LENA! What's wrong?!" The teacher's voice came around. Someone came to her side and held her by the shoulders. "Miss Lena!"
Sakura gritted her teeth and opened her eyes, "SNAKE!"
No one responded to her, and she found she was in the middle of a gathering, all staring down at her. "There was a snake on my leg…!"
"We…see…no snake." A blonde said.
Sakura looked at her leg and notice black and blue splotches on her jeans. Right where the spider should have been.
"But…I…snake…here!"
"First spiders, then mouse's and now snakes…" a guy muttered behind her.
"Freaking annoying."
"Yeah…"
The teacher's wrinkly face popped up in the crowd, "I think you need to go see the nurse."
Sakura controlled her breathing, "Fine."
People shook there heads and cleared the way, all furious. Sakura picked her self up and looked over at the other seats.
The guy who draws stared back at her.
Was it a coincidence? That he was drawing a snake and a snake appeared? Or was she mental…or was he…
The boy gave a smile; a smile not meeting his eyes; a smile so fake anyone could see through it.
