I've been reading stories for as long as I could remember , so I got inspired and made my own story. I'm a newbie. I know my story isn't as great as yours, but bear with me please?

So Much For Being "A Good Student"
'Oh My God!' I thought. My eyes widen as I looked at the big school (when I say big…I mean BIG) in front of me. Oh yeah, another first day of school at Konoha Academy. Why? Because I'm new. So being a new student means new friends, new teachers, new enemies (which I'm prepared of), and heck, even the old fashioned way—the introduction. Yeah, I know, it's cliché enough. Ugh, everything's going to be new.
Oh! I almost forgot, my name is Ryuu Tenten and I'm 17. I've been living by myself ever since I moved to Konoha. Don't get me wrong, my parents stayed in Suna and sent me here as a punishment. Why? Because I was a brat at my old school, you know, doing crazy things like picking a fight, breaking rules, etcetera, etcetera. Oh Well, whatever, it's not like my new school is going to be different. Right?
Enough chit chat. Now, I'm starting to get uncomfortable just by looking at the huge building before me. Will I able to search my class without getting lost? I know it's hard considering I'm new and don't know any students here. I shook my head and took a deep breath before entering the gate.
Thank goodness, this school doesn't require to wear uniform so I'm wearing a black t-shirt that says 'You wanna piece of me?', a plain gray (almost black) jacket with a hoodie and a skinny jeans with black low-cut converse. I didn't change my hairstyle over the past year since I moved. It's really troublesome thinking different hairstyles and I wasn't even planning to change that because that's who I am. Somehow, I look like an emo. Oh well, it fits my personality, so what?
As I kept walking, I didn't even think the location of the principal's office. How stupid of me. I unzipped my bag and rummaged through it.
'Where the hell is it? Not here….not even here. Tch, whatever. I'll just ask for help, then.' Luckily, I saw a girl with pink hair standing near the bulletin board. Pink? Is her hair dyed? I'm pretty sure it is. I approached the girl and asked.
"Hi, could you please help me find the principal's office?" I asked politely.
"Sure, I'm assuming you're new?" she asked.
I was about to reply when I noticed she was looking at my clothes I was wearing. 'What the…what is this girl's problem? Is she picking a fight?' I thought as I narrowed my eyes a bit. She seems to noticed my eyes and smiled awkwardly. She looked at me and said, "I like your style. It fits you perfectly."
I wasn't sure if I'm suppoed to thank her for complementing me but judging by that awkward smile of hers. But then again, since she was helping me, I guess I should thank her.
"Uhh…thanks." I said not very sure.
"No problem. I'm Sakura. Haruno Sakura, by the way" She said while extending her hands.
"I'm Tenten. Ryuu Tenten. Nice to meet you." I was trying to be polite since she was INDEED helping me.
We started walking, so I took a chance to examine her from the corner of my eyes. From head to toe, she looks beautiful—with those emerald green eyes, her lips were plump and pink, white creamy skin, nice curves but she was lacking in the chest area. Unlike me, I'm pretty plain. Or average—it doen't matter. I was so busy with my own thoughts when she said something but I didn't quite catch it.
"What?" I asked, not sure what was she talking about.
She sighed. "I said where already here." Haha, that's what I get for not paying attention.
"Oh okay. Sorry about that." "No, it's okay." She said as we entered to the principal's office (the door was open by the way. I think, it was for new students).
We had to wait because the secretary was busy with signing some papers. So, we waited. What keeps worrying me was the time. It was almost the time for our first period and I don't want to be late. I promised my parents to be good since I'm living alone. I sighed. 'So much for being a good student.'
Sakura seems to noticed my worried face and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Well, it's almost the time for our first period, so I don't want to be late. You know, it's a first day." She smiled at me.
"Don't worry, new students are excused to be a little late considering it's a first day." She smiled so bright that I couldn't help but stare at her. Oh how I wish I could smile so beautiful like that.
I sighed, again. "What about you? I'm assuming you're not a new student. So how come you're still here?" I asked, not realizing how stupid I was for asking that dumb question.
She giggled, "I was helping you, remember? Besides, Tsunade-sama asked me to help new students, which is 'you'. She even gave me a student pass. So I said, why not?" Oh right, she was helping me. Ugh, my mind's getting blank already.
"We can sit over there while waiting." She pointed at a nearby chairs and sat down. I guess, I could sit too 'coz my feet were killing me.
While we waiting a few minutes more, the secretary called and looked at us with an apologic face.
"I'm so sorry for letting you guys wait. It's just that I was really busy with so much paperwork. So, are you a new student?" She asked then looked at me, then back to the computer's screen.
"Yes." I said.
"Can I have your name?" she said, eyes still glued on the computer while typing.
"Tenten." I said, adding the next words just in case she's going to ask me again. "Ryuu Tenten."
She nodded then introduced herself. "I'm Shizune, by the way."
"Nice to meet you, Shizune-san." I said politely.
"Okay, you're good to go. Tsunade-sama needs to talk to you. She was waiting. " She smiled while handing over my schedule and other things I needed.
I nodded.
Sakura seem heard the entire conversation because I was about to approah her when she stood up and led me the way to this Tsunade person's office.
As Sakura knocked on the door, I heard a "Come in." Opening the door, I saw a busty beautiful woman sitting on a chair with her fingers entertwined while her elbows leaned on top of the desk. She had hazel eyes with blond hair pigtails. she's one hell of a scary woman with those scary eyes. Now, she's the woman I'm not supposed to be mess with. I reeeeeally have to pay close attention 'coz if looks could kill, I might be dead already. Okay, I'm exaggerating. She's not that bad, right? RIGHT?
"You're Ryuu Tenten, right?" she asked in almost emotionless attitude.
'Oh God, I'm starting to feel uncomfortable now.' I thought. Oh wait, I really should stop talking to myself already and focus on her.
"Y-yes. I am." Curse you stutter! Why now? Okay, deep breath.
"Are you okay?" she asked. God, one minute, she's scary. Then, she's nice? Please stay like that.
"Yes, I'm alright." I said, trying to compose myself. Luckily, it worked.
"Where are you from?" she asked me again.
"Oh, I was from Sunagakure. But then moved here by myself." I answered.
She nodded.
"I talked to your parents over the phone and told me something you had been encountered, or rather, you had been doing, from your old school." She said, while examining the expression of my face carefully.
'Oh God, this wasn't what I think it is, was it?' I thought. Curse you mom and dad for revealing my secret.
"Is it true?" she asked again. Her face turning emotionless again—staring at me, as if to say 'Tell me the truth.'
"Y-yes, it's true." Back to stuttering again?
She sighed. "Okay, in this school, I expect from students to get good grades and behave for the rest of the school years. So I expect you to do the same, Tenten. Am I making myself clear?"
"Hai." I said.
"Okay, you may go." She dismissed us.
As soon as we closed the door and walked a little further away, I heard Sakura laughing. 'She's laughing at me?' "What's so funny?" I asked her confusedly. Seriously, what's so funny about it?
"Yo…u. Pfft." She continued laughing while I, still confused.
"Your face was hard to paint because you were so scared, as if you've seen a ghost. My impression for was like a bad ass attitude, like a punk." She stopped laughing. Oh, that explains it.
"Well, she really was scary. I couldn't even answer her straightly. I'm pretty sure everyone here also scared of her." I said, trying to defend myself.
"Yah, we all do. I was in the same boat as you when I first met her." 'Really? She's that scary? What a monster.'
We chatted a few minutes until we heard the first bell for first period. I was so preoccupied when I didn't noticed that Sakura was following me. So, I had to ask her. "Are we in the same class?"
"Uhm…I don't know. Who's your first class?" she asked.
"I have… Hatake Kakashi – Homeroom, Room 201." I said while looking at my schedule.
"Oh, My class is in third floor, Room 305. I'm sorry, I can't walk with you on your first period." She said apologically. Well, I was hoping she could be in the same class as I am. But, oh well.
"Naah, it's okay. You've done enough for helping me earlier. Thanks a bunch, anyways." I said with a smile. She seemed to have convinced when I said that.
"You're welcome. If you need any help, just tell me and don't hesitate." She smiled while running further away from me.
Oh, right. I need to hurry, too. I don't want to be late. Well, I did a mistake again. I was trying to put back the papers I had from the principal's office while running so, my eyes was focused on my bag—that I didn't notice someone bumped into a wall, or an extremely toned chest, as I was turning around the corner.
'Oof...' I fell on my butt and saw my things went flying in the air. I rubbed where it hurts carefully and tried standing up. 'Damn! That really hurts.' Now, I'm going to be late even more. Ugh! So much for being a good student. Who ever this person is, I'm going to show him/her. Just as I was about to confront the person and looked up, I was out of words. Why? Because there he was, standing for about 6" ft. tall, with long brown hair in a loose ponytail and a pale skin. But what I noticed the most is his eyes. They were beautiful and I couldn't help but stare at his eyes. It was none other than….Hyuuga Neji.
I was in the middle of my day dreaming when he spoke, "Tch. You should watch where you're going." he said. Gosh, his voice was deep and husky.
"I-I-I'm sorry, I was running 'coz I don't want to be late. And..and—" I was cut off when he spoke again, but this time I'm not sure if that was even a word. Maybe I should take a look at the dictionary and see what it means?
"Hn. Whatever." He hissed, walking past me, not bothering to help her.
"Jeez..what a jerk! What the fuck's his problem? I apologized to him and not bothering to help me? How long is that stick shoved up his ass?" I mumbled while picking up some of the papers had fallen. As soon as I'm done, the second bell was already rang. 'Grr..if it wasn't bumping into that jerk, I wouldn't be late for my first period.' I sighed. Maybe this Kakashi person will let me off the hook since I'm a new student.
Well, hopefully I'll meet someone nice—not as jerk as that guy.
