Hey Guys! I know I shouldn't be doing a new story but the idea popped into my head and I just HAD to do it. Don't worry I am still working on Bringing Them Together. That story is coming along quite well. I don't know how often updates will be though. School's been absolute hell and I keep getting in trouble for sitting in class, doing nothing, but writing my stories. BUT! Since it is March Break, updates should be coming along quite nicely! Anyway, on with the story!

Take Your Time
It's like a New Life

'I don't like it here. There's too many people.' Gaara, his older brother and sister walked through the halls of their new school. They had just moved to Konoha in time for the start of the new school year. Kankouro looked over at his younger brother in concern. 'I hope he'll be ok. He looks paler than usual.'

Gaara was short for his age and people found it hard to believe that he was entering grade 9. He had shocking red hair that stood in unruly spikes all over his head. His peircing green eyes made him seem so innocent. He was shorter and much skinnier than most boys his age. Gaara was shy and barely ever talked, even at home.

His older brother, Kankouro, was almost the opposite. He was taller than some boys his age and was rather muscular. The older boy had short, dark brown hair and matching eyes. He was in grade 11 and was quite popular in his old school. He was loud and outgoing, lazy too. Like most older boys, Kankouro was very protective of his younger brother.

Temari was a year younger than Kankouro, which made her a year older than Gaara. She had short, sun blonde hair. She was of normal height and quite pretty. She was also popular. Caring, sweet, liked some sports. She wasn't neccessarily boy-crazy like most girls her age.

Some people found the three siblings to be quite odd, what with the two oldest being popular compared to the youngest.

'ARG! Too many preps to have to deal with. Geez, this school will be lots of fun.' Gaara thought, watching two girls walk by. They wore mounds of make-up and really slutty clothes. By the way they looked, walked and talked, he could tell they were popular, and snotty. One of them had shoulder length, neon pink hair and pale green eyes. The other had pale blonde hair put up in a bun and pale ice blue eyes. As they walked by the three siblings, they looked at Gaara. When they passed, they burst out laughing.

'Retards.' Gaara mumbled in his head. Kankouro stopped when he noticed he was in front of the office doors. Gaara's head was hanging down, staring at his shoes. Kankouro sighed. "Come on you guys. Let's get our scheduals and find our classes." When they stepped in, they saw the secretary sitting behind her desk writing something.

"Excuse me, miss. We're new. We were told to report here to get our scheduals." Kankouro called to her. She looked up and smiled. "Last name please." "Sabaku." He replied. She smiled again. "Oh, yes. Please come around here and I'll give you what you need." The three of them walked behind the desk. She looked at Temari. "Temari, correct?" She asked sweetly. Temari nodded. "Here is your schedual. First period you have is gym, with Genma-sensei. The gym is in the basement. Here is a map to help you." She handed everything over and Temari smiled.

"See you guys at lunch." She called, walking out of the office. "And so you must be Kankouro." Kankouro nodded. "First period is history with Anko-sensei. Here's your stuff." He took his stuff and stayed in place. "Is something wrong?" She asked politely. "No. I'm waiting for him." He replied, nodding to Gaara. "He will be fine. Head to class please." Kankouro sighed and turned to Gaara. "Have a good day please. I'll see you at lunch." He walked out and Gaara droped his head.

'Damnit! This isn't fair. I don't want to find my classes alone.' "Gaara, you have Science first with Tsunade-sensei. She is also our principal. Here's your schedual and map." Gaara took his things and whispered a 'Thank you' before leaving. No one was in the hall when he left. The room he was looking for was 301. 'Damnit. Lost already and I have barely moved!' "Hey! Hey, you!" Someone called. Gaara turned around to find a blue-eyed blonde walking towards him. "You look lost. You new?" He asked. Gaara nodded. "I'm Naruto. Uzumaki Naruto. You?" He asked, extending his hand.

Gaara shook his hand. "Gaara. Sabaku Gaara." Naruto smiled. "So, what class do you have first?" "Science. Room 301." Gaara mumbled. Naruto grinned. "Me too. We better hurry. Tsunade-baachan can be wierd in the morning when people are late." He grabbed Gaara's wrist and pulled him in the right direction. When they walked in, a young blonde woman was sitting on the front desk. She turned to Naruto and Gaara.

'Woah...Is she the teacher? She looks so young and her breasts are way too big for her shirt.' She glared at Naruto. "What's the exuse this time, Uzumaki?" She asked lazily. "Heh heh. I...uh...oh hell. I woke up late and on my way down the apartment stairs I fell. I sat there for a bit and than decided to drag my sorry ass to your class, Tsunade-baachan." Tsunade's left eye twitched. "Take your seat, you brat." She growled at him. Naruto smiled before fluncing over to a desk. "And you are?" She asked, turning her gaze to Gaara. "G-Gaara. S-S-Sabaku Gaara." He stuttered out.

She smiled. "New student. All right, I'll let you off this time. Take a seat right up front." She pointed to a desk next to a boy with long black hair and pale white eyes that had no pupils. Gaara took his seat and the boy turned to him. "Hi, I'm Neji. Welcome to Konoha High."
