Hello! I have updated another story, obviously. I started this along time ago, but wasn't too sure about it. Personally I think I put a little too much detail into it. It was first story,though, D-claimer: Me No Own Naruto.

Chapter 1
The alarm clock rang for the second time. Sakura groaned and turned over. The clock read five-thirty AM. She was a sophomore in high school for a year and she still was not used to getting up early. She was lucky she shared a house with three other girls.
Tenten was dressed, packed and ready to go. Her dark brown hair was in its usual buns on the top of her head. She was wearing a black T-shirt that read, "I see stupid people." with a white slightly longer T-shirt under it. She was also wearing a pair of navy blue skinny jeans. On her feet were simple black converse that she had scribbled on. She was not a girl for makeup; there was no eyeliner around her hazel eyes. Hinata had just come out of the bathroom fully dressed, but her blue-ish black hair was still wet. She was wearing an orange tee that was so fluorescently (is that even a real word?) bright, it hurt your eyes to even stare in its' general direction. She was wearing black Bermuda's that came to just below the knee. Her hair was long now; it reached a little past her shoulders. (AN: Think of Itachi's hair, with Hinata's bangs.) She tied it in a low ponytail, at the nape of her neck. She pulled a dunk cap on over it. Her bangs came down a little and were now just above her eyes. The hat was white with a small black flower on it. She had also put on some silver eyeliner and mascara, which only made her white eyes look prettier. She put on a pair of short wedge heels that made her about an inch taller. Even
Ino was ready by now, which was saying something considering the fact that she was usually last to wake up. She had shortened her once long blonde hair. It was now only slightly longer than Hinata s'. She liked it that length. She put it up in a high ponytail on top of her head She was wearing a dark green tee that said: My eyes are up HERE with an arrow pointing up, and a blue skort (half skirt half shorts) that came to about mid-thigh. She had put on smoky gray eye shadow that contrasted beautifully with her sky blue eyes and dark red lipstick. She was wearing white flip-flops.
"Sakura. Get up, we need to be on time today." Tenten said.
"Alright, alright I'm up" the pink-haired girl replied, while getting out of bed. She had learned numerous times that it was not wise to argue with the people who were wielding kunai that were sharpened daily. Twenty minutes later, Sakura came out fully dressed. She was weary black eyeliner around her sea foam green eyes and lipstick the color of bubble-gum. She was wearing a gold tank top that came up just above her belly button, with a pair of baggy, purple, hip hugging cargo pants, and short black boots.
"Nice." Ino said with a smirk. 'You couldn't pay me enough to wear those pants.' Ino thought to herself.
"We should get going. The guys are probably already waiting for us, and I wouldn't put it past them to leave us if they're hungry." Hinata said. She didn't stutter any more. "Hinata's right. We need to get to school on time." Tenten said, as she picked up her piano key-pattern messenger bag.
Sakura grabbed her backpack. It was old, but it was a simple red backpack and it had lasted for a long time, so Sakura used it. Hinata used a bag like Tenten s', but hers was light blue and a little bigger. Ino put all her books and supplies into a lime green backpack. Then all four of them walked out the door. They hadn't even taken a few steps before they heard a loud yell.
"HINATA-CHAN, INO-CHAN, SAKURA-CHAN, AND TENTEN-CHAN!!" Naruto yelled and ran towards them. He was 15, same as everyone else but he was taller than all of the girls and a few of the guys. He had unruly dirty blonde hair that suck out all over the place. He was wearing an orange jacket that was even brighter than Hinata's, and a dark blue tee and jeans. He ran up and hugged Hinata, who had just invented a new shade of red. All of the other guys were at the edge of the porch, apparently discussing something. However at the sound of Naruto they had looked up. There were about 7 guys. Sasuke was the one closest to the girls. He had raven black hair that hung down like bangs in the front, but in the back kind of stuck up. He was wearing a black tee, with dark blue jeans. The only bright color on him was a pair of red converse. He half smiled then turned back to the group.
The one standing next to him was Neji. He had brown hair the same length as Ino, but he wore it in a very low pony almost an inch from the bottom of his hair. He had eyes white like Hinata s', because he was her cousin. He was wearing a white polo with the collar popped, and jeans like Sasuke. He nodded. Kiba was across from Neji. He was wearing a white button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbow and jeans. He had brown shaggy hair and a golden brown tan. He flashed the girls a bright smile then turned back.
Next to Kiba stood Shikamaru. He had black hair that he wore in a short ponytail above his head. He was wearing a khaki colored jacket with a dark green tee underneath. He was also wearing jeans. Sai stood off from the circle a little but was obviously still taking part in the conversation. He was wearing a gray T-shirt that had the name of the band "Linkin Park" on it. He was wearing jeans like everyone else. He smiled and then turned around to say something to Kiba. Lee was farthest a way but the girls knew it was him. Who else would wear green spandex and had eyebrows bigger then Alaska? He smiled and walked over.
" Yosh!! Your youth is overflowing my lovely friends." He said, giving them his 'Good Guy pose'. Lee was odd. He said all these things about 'springtime of youth, and spandex were comfortable' and stuff like that.
Before anyone could tell him how incredibly stupid he sounded (and looked), there was a SLAM! And the neighbors' door shut. Out walked three people. The first and oldest by the looks of it was a girl with sandy blonde hair. She had put it into four ponytails, two on top, and two on bottom. She was wearing a fair amount of black eyeliner, and ice blue eye shadow made her blue eyes stand out. Her lipstick was pale pink.
Her T-shirt was black with the words "Goodbye Kitty" and showed a picture of a gun pointed at Hello Kitty's head. She was wearing black pants with a chain holding on to her wallet. She was wearing full sized combat boots that she had tucked her pants into, bunching them up slightly. The second was a boy. He had short but wild light brown hair. He was wearing a checkerboard pattern shirt, and black skinny jeans. He also was wearing purple "guy liner" and white converse. It was the third person that interested most of the girls, though.
He had short (but not too short) red hair, and was wearing again a simple black shirt and black cargo pants with a chain. His eyes were electrically (again, is that a real word?) blue and had what looked like eyeliner, but when you looked closer you could tell they were lines under his eyes. He also had what looked like a tattoo on his head. It was the kanji for love. When he caught sight of the four girls staring at his tattoo, he brushed his hair in front of it. All three of them walked of the porch and came over to where everyone else was standing. The girl walked up to the other girls.
"HI!! I'm Temari. This is my brother Kankuro". She pointed to the guy with brown hair. "And this is Gaara." She pointed to the red-haired guy. "I think you are our neighbors now." She stuck out a hand. Sakura shook it not entirely sure of what to say. Luckily, Ino spoke up.
"Uhh… Hi I'm Ino and this is Sakura, Hinata, and Tenten." She pointed to girls as she said their name. They all waved. "And the guys over there are Naruto, Sasuke, Neji, Kiba, Shikamaru, and Lee." Ino continued, again pointing to each guy as she said his name. All five girls now began to talk. Gaara and Kankuro walked over to the guys.
"…You really should just make up your mind. If you want to go out with Tenten, just tell her." Sasuke said, still unaware of the fact that Gaara and Kankuro were right behind him.
"It's not that easy," Neji said, " We've been friends for years. I don't want to blow our friendship to ask her out." He closed his eyes and thought.
"Come on… How hard could it be?" Kiba asked.
"Oh! Wise words coming from the guy whose wanted to ask out Ino for years." Neji retorted, eyes still closed. Kiba turned red.
"I could ask her out for you, Kiba-san." Sai said, smiling evilly.
"No way in Hell." Kiba said. He knew that smile. That was the same smile that told Kiba there was a guy's bathroom down the hall that turned out to be a girl's gang shower. Kiba still had bruises. Sasuke was about to say something when. Kankuro spoke up,
"Umm… Hi. I'm Kankuro and this is my brother Gaara. Do you guys all live here or something?"
" Hi! I'm Sasuke. No, we don't live here; we are down the next street, we just walk with the girls to school." He said.
All of the other guys stated their names.
" Cool, so what school do you guys go to?" Kankuro said, "We just moved here, so we're kind of new to this place." He scratched the back of his head.
"We go to Kohona High public school." Shikamaru said.
"That's where we're going! Maybe we'll see you around." Kankuro said.
"Whose the girl with you?" Shikamaru asked, trying to be nonchalant about it. It didn't work.
A smirk appeared on Kankuro's face. "Think she's pretty?" he asked. Shikamaru bushed faintly.
"I… Umm well…. I-I guess so." He stuttered out.
"That's my older sister Temari." Kankuro said. "She's a grade above me and Gaara." Shikamaru was about to ask something about Temari when…
"Are you guys coming to breakfast with us or not?!?" Naruto said pouting, arms folded in front of his chest. All of the girls were done talking and were now staring at the guys looking slightly impatient. The girls were staring straight at Gaara. He glared at them. "We didn't walk over here early to TALK! Lets' go!" He said. They began walking.
