Private School Girl

(Used all the prompts lovely, at least I'm going to)

Hinata resisted the urge to scream as she lay in bed, tossing and turning. She couldn't slow down the many images passing through her mind. Spinster, old lady who lives alone with her cats, teacher teaching past her expiry date…so many fears rolled into one. Hinata lurched out of her bed and grasped her midnight blue hair; she pulled at it hopelessly and wondered silently at the walking disaster she was. Not like she was walking at that moment but still. Hinata reached for her bedside table and blindly fumbled for her lamp switch. Click. A warm glow spread across her bed and she glanced at her watch, 2 am. Hinata curled into a ball and stared at her reflection in the mirror. Now that she thought about it, all those images weren't that sinister and yet she would rather die by an axe murderer than end up as… Hinata shook her head and decided she needed to express her fears, wants…and needs. Hinata reached for the pen and notepad lying on her bedside table and she began to scribble down her thoughts.

8/6/09

Can't sleep. Worrying about the future. I know it's stupid and yet…What if… That's all I can think, what if. What if I end up an old cat lady with no life, what if I'm destined to be lonely, what if my career will be as a primary school teacher and what if everyone I know finds love and I don't.

Hinata shook her head and groaned as she threw the pen and paper to the floor, she had enough. Hinata quickly shoved the two thrown items under her bed and slipped under her covers. She'll just go to sleep and take each day as it comes. At least that's what she told herself.

Hinata sighed as she shouldered her green bag and walked to her locker; school. She glanced at the park like appearance of the high school she went to. Private. All girls. Hinata appreciated that her parents were willing to sacrifice nearly all there money to send their two daughters to such a prestigious college and yet… Hinata couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to go to a public school; she was slightly scared by the thought. Public usually meant co-ed and…co-ed obviously meant boys, Hinata had never talked to a boy her age in her life, besides Neji of course but he didn't count. She had been going to Konoha Ladies' College all her life and she didn't know what life was like outside of it. All she knew was the Hyuga Mansion and school, if she ever went out it was with her family. Hinata sighed, she felt like her life was pointless. She never used to think life was so hopeless; maybe it was an identity crisis. Hinata forced on a smile as her best friend, Karin, walked up.

"Hinata, guess what!" Karin squealed.

"What?"

"Anko is holding a camping meeting at lunch, the whole year needs to participate in it. It sounds exciting," Karin grabbed Hinata's arm and they strolled to the locker area.

"What are we doing?" Hinata asked absentmindedly.

"Well, we do camping things, you hike and stuff and then you have to complete other activities as well, like sport and community service."

Hinata nodded, sounded okay, maybe it would help take her mind off her rather dull existence, "Everyone doing it?"

"Mhmm, so after P.E we are all meeting in the gym! I have a feeling it's going to be great!" Karin beamed, "Oh, I need to go to latin, see you!"

Hinata waved as the bubbly girl bounced off to her latin class, only Karin could be so energetic on a Monday morning even when she knew that she had to learn a dead language. Hinata shook her head and shuffled to her locker, she quickly took out her timetable and smiled slightly. Double art, that should cheer her up a little bit. Hinata pulled out her sketchpad and turned to find Sakura and Ino. Hinata put her head down and tried to side step them, too late.

"Hyuga! Hows it going?" Sakura asked.

Ino laughed behind her.

"Fine," Hinata muttered, her eyes downcast, there were two types of people in Konoha Ladies' College –girls who have never interacted with a person from the opposite sex and who were terrified of having to meet them and then there were the girls who first met guys at the age of 12 and who have had a series of sexual relationships ever since.

Ino and Sakura were the latter, they were real rebels. They had ear piercings and Sakura had died the tips of her hair blonde. Most girls didn't dare talk to them or make eye contact, they were afraid they would get hurt in some way. Hinata snorted to herself, these girls could hurt, she was positive that syphilis wasn't a good thing. Even though Hinata hated them and even though she thought they were bimbos she was too scared to say anything. Everyone knew that people who didn't have their virginity were at the top of the food chain.

"Have a nice weekend?" Ino asked.

"What did you do?" Sakura smiled.

Hinata shrugged, "N-

"Did you stray too far from your parents, rebel," Ino smirked.

"Now don't be nasty Ino, what did you do Hinata?" Sakura asked.

Hinata breathed deeply and resisted the urge to cry, people could be so horrible, "I didn't really do anything."

"Did you go out?"

"Yes."

"With who?" Ino squealed and came up closer to Hinata's face.

"My…family."

"Wow, you're cool," Sakura laughed as she and Ino strutted off in their short pleated skirts.

Hinata wondered how the two of them got away with it, school rules was that you had to have your uniform at knee length or longer. Hinata sighed and placed a hand on her reddened cheek, being humiliated by the people who rank at the top of the social pyramid wasn't a good way to start her day.

"Hinata, do you have deodorant?" Karin asked as the girls changed out of their P.E gear, "I'm so disgusting and drenched in sweat and I forgot to bring some."

Hinata smiled, Karin always forgot deodorant, "No, only have roll on."

"Karin, can you tighten my bra strap," Tenten called out, "Mine got loose somehow."

Hinata blocked out the many screaming voices of teenage girls and ignored the debate going on next to her about whether tampons or pads was better. All girls' schools were okay in the sense that you didn't have to hide anything or pretend to be somebody you weren't…at least most of the time.

"Alright, girls out now! Meeting," Anko shouted from the change room door.

Hinata waited for Karin and soon they found themselves sitting on the gymnasium floor in front of Anko.

"First, before I get onto the interesting things I have to remind you all yet again about something unpleasant," Anko called out across the year group, "I am asking you to change inside the change rooms."

A chorus of voices erupted and moans were clearly audible.

"I know, I know that it is much more convenient to just change in the hall or on the stands but the male teachers feel…uncomfortable."

Anko frowned as she waited for the year group's laughter to die down, "So remember, change rooms! Now onto something more interesting, this year you will all participate in a camping activity and you are all expected to join some form of sport, class and community service. These four things will take place on every Friday and the camping will go over the weekend. Unfortunately you won't have any say in the choice of these things but there is something guaranteed in all four."

Anko paused and everyone quieted down, they wanted to hear this.

"Boys."

Squeals, chatter, laughter and cheers bombarded the poor P.E teacher and it took a few minutes for her to finally calm the crazy arse teenage girls down. After a while they all decided that if they listened they could go to lunch and so they stopped talking for the most part.

"Yes, boys, no we aren't bribing you but we thought it might give you some…motivation and enthusiasm for the course. You will be going through this experience with our brother school, Konoha Boys and we shall see what happens. The list is up outside the senior school staff room so go check it out to see what you have been put down for. You can go to lunch now," Anko then waved them off.

The girls all rose and as a mass pushed passed each other for the exit, Karin and Hinata groaned as they tried to fit through the door.

"Does our year remind you of cattle?" Karin asked once they made it out alive.

Hinata smiled but her mind was on other things, boys. That was all she could get her mind to recognise. Boys, boys, boys, she was going to meet one that wasn't related to her. Hinata didn't know how to feel, scared, anxious, elated?

"Breath Hina, what has gotten in to you?" Karin asked as they opened their locker to get out their lunch.

"Nothing, nothing," Hinata replied, no one knew that she had never talked to a guy her age before…it was too private for even Karin to know about, "Just wondering what I have been rostered for."

"Well stop wondering, let's go see!" Karin punched the air and then whisked Hinata off to the noticeboard.

"If I could sweat drop I so would right about now," Hinata groaned as Karin dragged her to the list, which was surrounded by a wall of girls.

"MOVE! Shove! Coming through, out of the way. This is not a meeting place!" Karin yelled as she tackled and elbowed her way through the crowd.

Hinata watched in amazement as Karin made a pathway for them to go through, she couldn't live without Karin.

"Here Hinata, front row seats, let's see. Camping…I wonder who is in my group. Rotten luck, I'm doing gymnastics as a sport, I can't even do a log roll…what about…

Hinata zoned out all of the buzzing talk around her and quickly found her name.

Name Camping Group Sport Service Class

Hyuga, Hinata 7 cricket childcare science

Hinata was a bit confused; science class and childcare service all seemed slightly weird.

"So when do we start and who are we with?" Karin asked.

Hinata shrugged, "I-I guess you find out on the day."

"Guess so, what camping group are you in? I'm in group three," Karin said.

"I'm in group seven, and I'm doing cricket, childcare and science class," Hinata said.

"Aw, damn I'm doing none of those! Oh well, I wonder why we are doing it with a boy school. Must be for socialising, I don't mind that idea," Karin laughed as they walked to their area.

Hinata smiled and whispered, "I don't mind it either."
