The Mentalist
In the beautiful town of Konoha there is this 14 year old boy named Sasuke Uchiha, yes that would be me. I have pale skin dark charcoal eyes and black bluish hair. I lived in Konoha my whole life. I keep seeing this boy in town and he is only ever out at night. There he is again. He has beautiful blonde hair. He is always with a woman he looks around 18. I always wonder what he does with all those different woman. I bet your wondering what I am doing out so late. Well I always go out to eat with my friends. My parents died when I was eight and my brother is never home so I go out even though he don't want me too. Plus its summer break and it will be over in a week and this is my only time to spend time with my friends.
"Hey Sasuke why you dazing off?" Kiba asked. He has shaggy brown hair and brown eyes. Then he has these weird triangles on his face that he draws on for some reason.
"Nothing" I said.
"We have been calling you for a while now" Shikamaru said. He has brown eyes and his hair is a dark brown with it being held up in a high ponytail. He looks lazy but he is really smart and perceptive. My other friend that happens not to be here tonight is Neji. He has long brown hair down to the middle of his back. Its always in a low ponytail and his eyes make him look blind but believe me he has amazing eye sight.
"Sasuke we should have a party at your house since your bro ain't around" Kiba said.
"Kiba you realize if I say I am going to have a party it will get around the whole village and brother will kill us" Sasuke paused. "Or I would." Me and them laughed.
"Well let's head home" Shika said.
(1 week passed)
"Sasuke what are you thinking about?" Shikamaru asked.
"I just keep thinking about someone" I said being honest with my best friend.
"That blonde guy you kept staring at yesterday" Shikamaru said. I looked at him shocked but why am I surprised like I said he's perceptive. "It's okay. Kiba didn't notice you staring at the blonde" Shikamaru said comforting me.
"Don't tell Neji either" I said. Shikamaru just nodded. I knew he wouldn't but I had to clarify it.
"Speak of the devil isn''t that the blonde coming on the train" Shikamaru said.
"Yeah that is" I said. 'He's wearing our uniform' I thought.
"Sasuke he's wearing our uniform I wonder what year he is. Were only first years." Shika paused then looked at me "You should stop staring at him man. He kind of looks older than us." Shika said.
I stared at the blonde some more. He was about 5'8". He has bright scruffy blonde hair. His body is built like he works out and is into sports. He had his hood on and his headphones. I am curious about him and I don't know why. He looks about my brother's age. I glanced at him one last time and his eyes caught mine. I couldn't break the gaze his beautiful blue eyes caught my dark eyes.
"Sasuke" Shika called me out the blue eyed trance.
"Hn" I looked at my friend.
"Here comes Kiba and Neji and they seem to be fighting already" Shika said.
"Figures. You know Kiba ain't no morning person and Neji ain't a patient person" I said and we laughed at them as they approached us.
"What you guys laughing about? Neji asked clearly already irritated.
"You guys" Shika said bluntly.
"Why?" Kiba grunted as he sat down next to Shika.
"Because your fighting and it's only the first day for us" I said.
"Well I am irritated that you guys told me to pick up the idiot knowing damn well I am not patient at all" Neji said sitting next to me.
"Hey! I am not an idiot" Kiba yelled across me and Shika to Neji.
"Shush man don't scream on the subway" Shika said.
"Yeah idiot" Neji mumbled.
"That's it" Kiba jumped up to attack Neji. Neji jumped also knowing it was coming. I got in between them so it wouldn't get out of hand. There my best friends but there annoying. This is why I rather hang out with just me and Shika. I must have got up at the worst possible moment because the subway shifted and we all fell. They fell onto their seats but me I fell on the mysterious blonde for the first time I actually heard his voice.
"Are you okay?" the blonde said looking at my eyes again. I nodded. I couldn't get my voice to work or my body for that matter. "That was close you almost hit your head." the blonde said. I noticed he was standing so he stood to help me. I got my composure again which I don't know how I did and pulled away from him. He let me go immediately.
"Thank you." I said to him. The blonde just smiled at me and sat back in his seat putting his headphones back in his ears. I looked at my friends and they looked shocked accept Shika of course. Shika just smiled.
"You good?" Shika asked.
I nodded. "You guys fight on the subway again I will beat the hell out of you both" I said glaring at both of them. They both nodded there head. Our stop came soon after that and we all got off. The subway stop was only three blocks away from our school. As we walked toward the school I watched the blonde he was already near the gate already. I wanted to catch up to him and see what grade he is in.
"What's the rush Sasuke?" Kiba asked as he noticed my strides were getting faster.
"Just want to know if were all in the same class. I am going to go up ahead and check. Meet you guys there." I said as I ran off. I ran to the gate to see if I would see the blonde and I did. He was by the senior boards looking. He didn't look for long because he was in 4A. I looked at the freshman board and notice Kiba and Neji were in different classes.
"So what's the verdict?" Neji said.
"Neji your in 1B. Kiba your in 1D. and me and Shika are in 1A." I told them.
"That's bullshit" Kiba said then looked at his class sheet and spotted someone that made him smile. "Woohoo! Who cares if I'm not with you guys I'm with Hinata" Kiba screeched.
"WHAT?!" Neji screeched looking at the board.
"Well since we all know let's go to morning announcements" Shika said lazy. I looked around to see if I could see the blonde again. He was nowhere to be seen. Then I saw my brother Itachi pull up. He walked to the board then walked away. Then the blonde appeared again and walked straight to my brother with a beautiful smile.
"Hey Shika save me a seat. I want to talk to my brother real quick" I said. Shika looked around to see the blonde talking to Itachi then nodded. I walked over to them. The blonde spotted me first and smiled. Then my brother turned to me and glared.
"Little brother, I see you got to school on time since you left me at home" Itachi said bitterly. Before I got to answer him the blonde did.
"Come on Itachi he wanted to be with his friends" the blonde said for me.
"I would have took them too" Itachi said still glaring at me. Then I returned the glare.
"No you wouldn't. You don't even like Kiba" I said.
"Oh come on little brother. I just wanted to take you to your first day of school like I did when you were in elementary and in middle school. And we could have put him in the trunk" Itachi said with a light smile. I felt my cheeks warm up from his embarassing statement.
"No" is all I said before I looked at the blonde to see him still smiling at us. "Oh and thank you for earlier. I never got your name, my name is Sasuke Uchiha." I said and held out my hand. Both of them looked shocked by my sudden directness toward the blonde.
"It was no problem and my name is Naruto Uzumaki" the blonde said as he reached to shake his hand. He gave me a warm smile then let go.
"What hapened earlier little brother? What did Naruto help you with?" Itachi said worried.
"Kiba and Neji were fighting I stood up to stop it then there was a sharp turn and I fell over and Naruto caught me before I hit my head." I said. It was weird that my brother and Naruto were friends they seemed like two different people on the social bar. But then again Kiba hangs out with us and we are all smart and he's not.
"Oh really" Itachi glanced at Naruto and Naruto just stood there with no expression on his face. "Ok little brother you should get going your announcement starts in two minutes and we need to get going Naruto" Itachi said.
Naruto chuckled "Yeah cause no Uchiha can be late Itachi" Naruto said laughing. What is that suppose to mean?
Itachi glared at Naruto "Shut up Naruto" Itachi said pushing him. Naruto just kept laughing at their inside joke.
"Later" I mumbled. What is with their relationship? I hate saying THEIR. I got to the announcement and sat in between Shika and Kiba. Neji was by Shika.
"Can you believe were in highschool now?" Kiba said.
"No. I can't believe you made it in" Neji said teasing Kiba. That was when the announcer came in.
"Hello students. Welcome to Konoha Highschool. This is where your going to be for the next four years" the announcer said as I tuned her out.
"Don't remind me" I heard Kiba say as she said we will be here for four years which I chuckled about. Then I looked toward Shika and Neji. Shika was sleep and Neji was hell bent on listening to the whole announcement. I started listening again when I heard her mention the student council and remembered my brother and his rival were president and vice president though my brother told me he is friends with him now unlike their freshman year.
"Your student body President and Vice President Naruto Uzumaki and Itachi Uchiha" the announcer said and then stood to the side. Naruto came to the podeum.
"Thank you Sensei Kurenai. Welcome freshman. I came up here to inquire you about the whole student council this year will be graduating and that we are having a shadowing of who wants to take our places. We will all be having one person shadow us after freshman elections so if you want to take part in the student council let it be known." Naruto paused.
Wait did he say he was the student council president that's who Itachi was talking about in his freshman year.
"We basically want someone who wants our positions to shadow us for the whole year. You will be learning what we know we will be guiding you then when we step down you will take over. Itachi is there anything I left out or do you want to tell the rest?" Naruto spoke threw the microphone but didn't seem to care. My brother stepped into view and started to speak.
"The President and Vice President spot will only be for people who have high grades. So if your interested afterschool come to the student council office. That will be all for us. Have a good first day freshman" Itachi said as he walked off the stage with Naruto following behind him. Before Naruto went off the stage I noticed he was looking through the freshman until he saw me and he smiled at me. I felt my cheeks go warm. Was he really looking for me? Then I saw my brother slap him in the back of his head and he just laughed and shrugged then they sat down next to each other. They look really close I want what Itachi has with Naruto. I know just the way to get close to the blonde. I have to become student council president.
