Looking
at him, I don't know why he always sits alone. I sit in the back of
the classroom, at the same graffiti-ridden desk everyday. Everyone
moves around, everyone adjusts to sit with his or her own, usually
over-stereotypical cliques, but somehow, I am granted the very same
view of him, everyday. He sits three rows back, on the farthest
possible desk to the left, right next to a large window, which he
spends all of class period staring out, always. I believe he has a
certain fascination with the birds that have taken residence just
outside it. Some days, people sit in all the desks around him,
others, they avoid him as much as possible. Rumor has it he's highly
unstable, but then again, everyone in this damn place probably is.
So I simply can't understand it. Why isn't he popular? He has the
looks to be; long, immaculately cared for blonde hair, paralyzing
blue eyes, though only one is ever visible though said blonde hair.
Our teacher has stopped calling on him, because his answers are
always strange, but witty, at least, and the desperate teens in this
school are always exalting troublemakers. Looks, attitude, a criminal
record. All the things that should give you at least some form of
friends in this school.
Sure, maybe he didn't belong with Ino and
her moronic group of preps, but I'd be ashamed to see him lowering
himself to their level, anyway. Really, it was hard to pin point
exactly where he belonged, he was too lively for the younger Uchiha's
crowd, although his sense of fashion probably appealed to them. Mesh
undershirts, tight black or blue tank tops, usually jeans or leather
pants that did one of two things; clung to his every curve until it
looked painful, or hung off his ass. Always accessorized with a
black, metal studded belt, and the cut-off leather gloves I'd never
seen him without, even one day in my life.
He wasn't, however,
completely without attention. Someone else pays a particular amount
of time on the object of my current interest. I recognize him by the
almost hollow facial features, and the long, low black ponytail that
rolls down his back like black water; the elder of the Uchiha
brothers, Itachi. He hovers around that shimmering blonde ponytail
like steel draw to a magnet, I think, however, that I'm not the only
one who disapproves of the Uchiha's seductive behavior. Although I
don't know of any particular reason for the demeanor, I have always
noticed a sort of cold tint to those blue eyes, when they stare at
the wanting brunette. Then again, I suppose he doesn't need a reason,
if Itachi's mannerisms weren't bad enough, his reputation precedes
him where ever he goes, and it's hardly a good one.
However, as
much as I'd hate to admit it, Itachi's gang seems to be the best
group for someone like him. Not socially inept enough to be a
complete misfit, but unique, and certainly misplaced in the moronic
high school society. Really, "Itachi's gang" isn't the best
way to describe them; if their strange clique has a ringleader, it's
Pein. He's a senior, I think, him and his girlfriend, Konan. I'd
never been one for the school hall gossip, but word was they'd been
together since before middle school, and that they were the
masterminds behind the group's antics, as they were. Pein
definitely had the social influence to guide, or misguide, the six or
seven teens, and Konan had enough brains to pull off anything her
boyfriend asked of her, or nip a bad plan in the bud. Yeah, they were
probably the clique for Deidara, the rumored pyromaniac that he was.
They weren't so much on the popularity scale, but they were a bit of
a school legend, they even had a common nickname, though whether they
were responsible for it, or just some other dumb kids, I don't know.
The 'Akatsuki', I think it was. Ridiculous, if you ask me.
And
speak of the black haired devil, in the classroom just in time to
steal that small bit of Deidara's serenity before the bell rang. "Oi,
Dei-kun," He begins, his voice as low, and husky as ever. "Been
thinking about my offer?" Deidara turns his head from the window
and raises a naturally sculpted eyebrow. "What offer?" He
says, my thoughts exactly. I know I have no right to be possessive
over someone who is probably oblivious to my very existence, but I'd
love to know exactly what that whore of an Uchiha thinks he's
offering. Itachi gives a quiet chuckle, though I doubt it's sincere.
"Obviously not, then." He says. Deidara looks like he's
about to reply, but is saved by the bell, and a horde of students
making the room obviously too crowded, and too loud to discuss
whatever the matter was. Itachi runs a finger slyly down Deidara's
shoulder as he bids him a farewell, that is a bit too fond for my
tastes, and Deidara's too, by the small shudder that grasps him as
the Uchiha saunters away to his seat.
Within the next ten
minutes, all the latecomers manage to find their way into the room,
the last of which, sadly, is our teacher for this class,
Kakashi-sensei.
He offers a piss-poor excuse, which I doubt any
moron could fall for, creative though it is, and class begins.
Leaving me with roughly an hour to be bored out of my mind, but
better yet, roughly an hour, to observe a much more fascinating
subject.
Him.
A/N:
Please God, no. Not a

discourage you from reading, plz ;;;- But it's already been up
for quite awhile on my dA. –SecretlyObsessed.-
