A/N it's another Naruko and Sakuro story only this takes place in modern times. This is the first chapter and I hope you enjoy it. All right?

The first day of school for new gym teacher of Konoha middle school named Sakuro Haruno. He is a 33 year old single pink haired teacher whom graduated from Konoha College last year. He was once the best basketball player in the state of Kentucky. But unfortunately, he got into a car crash in his senior year breaking his spinal cord. He could walk again in a few months but he couldn't play basketball anymore.

After his Car accident, he still haven't lost his love for basketball so he decided to go to college to get a degree to Konoha college to get a coaching job someday but unfortunately the coaching jobs weren't open but he settled for gym teacher. He had 3 periods before he had his final period as he's checking his last student to climb the rope named...

"All right... Sora Inuzuka It's your turn." He said to the 6th grader whom reached the highest out of jump roping. Sora is a 12 year old whom started middle school. He had brown hair, sharp black eyes and whisker marks. The boy was struggling and sweating but is not giving up as he keeps on pulling the rope until he finally reached the top. Sakuro was quite impressed.

"That was a good climbing. You climbing the highest out of all of the students."

Sora smiled then slid down the rope. As he sighs with relief.

"Thanks, Mr. Haruno. I plan to get better with my skills if I wanna be on the basketball team." Sakuro smiled then put his hand on his student's shoulder.

"Well, Sora. You got potential to do it. I saw you practicing the floor and you were the best shooter out there. If you never give up... You may play in the NBA. Sora's eyes shined brightly.

"Really?"

"Sure, but you have to work harder than ever. That's what the greatest NBA players did." He smiled and gave his teacher a high five. Suddenly the final bell rang.

"Oh that's your bell, Sora. You better get dressed the to the bus." He told the young man.

"Actually my mom is picking me up since she's a reporter."

"All right. But as a teacher it's a rule for me to stay with you until your mom get here, okay?" He nodded as they both go to the head office to wait for Sora's mother.

"So... what your mother is a reporter... what kind?" He asked her.

"She's a sports reporter for the Konoha times." He answered his teachers question.

"Wait... Konoha times? Inuzuka? You're Naruko Inuzuka's son?" Sora nodded.

"Wow. I'm a big fan of her work. She does great work for that newspaper. But I've never seen her face."

"Yeah she likes to keep her face a mystery. She said it makes things interesting. Oh there's her car parking up front." Sakuro looked to see a blue Ford parked on the driveway and his eyes widen at whom came out. It was a blond haired young woman with a pony tailed tied up. She was wearing a blue blouse and blue skirt and blue heels. She had whiskers like Sora Only her eyes were blue. And she had whiskers the same as him too. Sakuro have never seen a woman as beautiful as her. She opened the door and was holding a purse. She smiled and kissed her son's cheek.

"Hey, Sora. How was your day?" The woman asked. Sora shrugged.

"Eh it was okay. Uh Mom I like to introduce you to my gym teacher Mr. Haruno."

"Nice to meet you. I'm Sora's mother, Naruko.

Naruko offered her hand but Sakuro just kept on staring at the woman for a minute until he finally got back into his senses and shook her hand.

"Hi, My name is Sakuro Haruno. I'm his teacher. You must be Naruko Inuzuka. Let me tell you something, I am a big fan of your work. Your interview with Coach Cal was excellent. Him talking about how he cares about his players says a lot about his character." Naruko smiled and blushed red.

"Well admittingly I'm a UK fan it was an honor to meet the head coach of the University of Kentucky."

"Oh I bet. And I enjoyed your interview that exposed our old coach Orchimaru to be fired for throwing games." He compliented.

"Well he had it coming once my friend Sasuki was listening to his conversation with his bookie." She smirked.

"I bet. Now we have Coach Hatake whose honest and hard working." He said.

"Yeah well we better get going. I gotta get home to cook dinner." He nodded in understanding.

"All right, it was nice meeting you." He waved.

"You too." She told him as she and her son left the school to their car. Sakuro was staring the position he was in. He doesn't know how but on the first day on the job... he fell in love.
