Sorry everyone! I would have posted this sooner, but my computer wouldn't log me in right.
Anywayssss….
This story is a sakura centric, so you won't see much of anyone else except Sasuke, because this is also a SasuSaku fic.
I don't own Naruto. sigh

"Haruno sakura! You're not paying attention!" Kurenai's voice rang out like a gong, shaking a pink-haired teen out of her stupor.
"No, I'm paying attention!" the rosette sat up, but half her butt was hanging off her chair, and she fell to the floor.
"Crap!" the classroom rang with laughter.
"Sakura, get back in your chair," Kurenai commanded.
"H-hai," sakura picked herself up off the floor and resumed her seat.
"Now," Kurenai continued, "we're going to start a partner project, and I'm going to pick the pairings."
The class groaned as a whole.
"I won't stand for any complaining. Each team must pick a biome and…" Sakura tuned Kurenai out and let her mind drift.
She imagined the beach, with the sun setting. Sakura felt the sand between her toes and closed her eyes.
"You are too pretty to be sitting her by yourself," someone had come up next to her; his face was cast in shadow from the sun behind him. Sakura remembered now. This was a couple of months ago, when she needed some air and drove down to the beach to think. This man had come up to her, and the only thing she remembered about him was the faint smell of eucalyptus. The man had stayed for a few minutes, but when the sun ducked under the ocean, he stood up and left without a word.
"Now, for the teams," Kurenai's voice again cut through the jade eyed teen's thoughts.
Sakura and her BF, Ino, glanced at each other.
"Uzumaki Naruto and Hugyya Hinata." Kurenai said.
A blond reached over and hugged his girlfriend, who blushed and lowered her eyes.
Nara Shikamaru and Yamanaka Ino."
"No!" Ino hissed.
"Uchiha Sasuke and…" Kurenai paused to let the fan girls squeal. Oh, she was an evil one.
A raven haired, onyx eyed teen rolled his eyes as all the fan girls giggled and whispered to each other. Everyone, (or almost) wanted the heart throb of Konoha High to be their partner.
"Haruno Sakura." Kurenai finally said.
There was instant uproar.
All the fan girls screeched about how it wasn't fair that their Sasuke-kun had to partner with some pansy that didn't even like him, while Sakura bellowed about why she had to be partnered with a stiff who could be handed over to his fan girls for all she cared. And Sasuke just sat there like a stone, cool as ever.
It went on like this until Kurenai finally yelled, "Enough!!"
Everyone quieted.
"Now on with the teams…" Kurenai looked back at her desk and continued reading the names.

With Sasuke…
"Wow, teme, you're so lucky. If I wasn't in love with Hinata,-hime, I'd be jealous." Naruto said at lunch, his mouth full of ramen.
"Hn." Came Sasuke's cold reply, but inside, although he wasn't about to admit it, his stomach was flip-flopping.
"Troublesome." Shikamaru set his tray down, "I'm paired with a gossip girl."
"Well, Ino's not so bad," Neji counseled, "I've got spit-fire Temari."
"Sasuek-teme's the lucky one! He got paired with Haruno Sakura!" Naruto yelled for the whole lunch room to hear. All the fan girls grew silent, and turned toward a certain person, who was shaking with anger.

"Naruto Uzumaki! You have hell to pay!" Sakura was steaming when she found Naruto after school, hanging out with Sasuke.
"Ah! Gomen! I didn't mean to!" Naruto cowered and was saved from a beating by a yellow bus going by.
"Crap!! I missed my ride!" Sakura went tearing after the bus, forgetting her bag.
"Ill return this to her." Sasuke picked it up and drove after Sakura in his Ferrari.
With Sakura…
As if being paired up with Sasuke Uchiha, and missing the bus wasn't bad enough, it started to rain. Sakura muttered a stream of curses under her breath as she was getting soaked, then realized that she had forgot her bag.
"The world hates me." Sakura concluded darkly, and turned to go back, when a sleek black Ferrari came toward her.
"Oh no." she muttered.
"Forget something?" the window rolled down, and Sasuke dangled Sakura's bag out the window.
"Dammit, Uchiha!! Sakura lunged for her bag, but crashed into Sasuke's car.
"Ill give you your bag if you let me give you a ride home." Sasuke informed her.
"Fine," Sakura climbed into the passenger's seat, and relaxed into the leather as Sasuke revved the engine. She dozed off…
"Please Enter."
A robotic voice jerked Sakura awake, and she saw a gate, then dozens of white houses turned gray from the rain.
"This isn't my home!" Sakura said indignantly, "You said you would bring me home!"
"I did say that," Sasuke smirked, "but I didn't say who's home."
"Damn," Sakura muttered.
