My Pink Hair

I walked through the gates of the Konoha High School. It was the school I was going to be going to now. Konoha High was an Asian school I guess; what I mean is that mostly Asian people go there (not to be racist or anything). I was a transfer student from Japan named Sakura Haruno. I decided to go to America, but it was kind of in the middle of the year plus I was a senior so it was all a little pointless. I went anyways and bought a house. I also brought all my stuff with me. With me were my cousins, Naruto Uzumaki and Gaara Sabaku. We were very close relatives because all of our parents died and we grew up by ourselves with their money. Luckily my parents were doctors so they were very rich. Naruto's dad was a very famous man, the president of a very famous sport's business. The business went to Naruto, who worked away from the office (he just signed papers…the rest of the work went to his trusting assistant), but Naruto was still left with tons of cash. Gaara's dad was like Naruto's – rich and famous – except Gaara had two other siblings so the money also went to them. His siblings, Temari and Kankurou, wanted to stay in Japan. Our parents died because someone had killed them. That's why we wanted to leave. We were scared of whoever was out there. That person had killed six people all around the same time and didn't get caught. I was terrified, and I'm pretty sure my cousins were too.

I was mostly fluent in English and obviously Japanese, but I had a tiny accent when I spoke English. Gaara and Naruto were still learning English, but Gaara barely ever talks so it didn't matter for him. We all took English courses while in Japan, but I had taken them the longest.

When we walked into the school, the first thing I noticed was that there were a lot of girls with their hair dyed in a wacky color. You could really tell it was fake colors; plus their eyebrows were way different colors. They had dyed their hair colors like blues, greens, reds, pinks, and purples. My hair is pink but it's natural believe it or not. Gaara's hair is red – not orangey red, but red like blood red –, which is also natural and so people always think we are lying to them. Gaara looks super weird, but I guess a lot of people actually think he looks really cute. He has these really weird dark circles around his eyes which kind of make him look evil, but girls think he looks cool with them (I once told him he looked like he was wearing mascara, and he hit me). He also has this tattoo that says "Love" in Japanese on like the side of his forehead. And the weirdest thing is that it looks like he has no eyebrows! He actually does, but they're just so thin you can't see them. Naruto also has weird hair and eyes, but no one thinks he looks weird. You usually don't see a Japanese or Asian for that matter, with blonde hair and blue eyes. People just don't really pay attention to his features though because their either staring at me or Gaara and because Naruto just looks so natural with his features. It's weird…

Anyways, we walked over to a building which had the words "Office" on it, and opened the door. Naruto, being the person who doesn't think, walked in first. He smiled to these girls who were in there and I swear I saw hearts in their eyes. Gaara walked in after me, and the girls almost fainted.

"Looks like you two are going to be a big hit," I said pointing to the girls.

Naruto just laughed and Gaara shrugged.

I walked over to the person behind the counter and asked, "Hello, I'm Sakura Haruno, the transfer student from Japan. These are my cousins Naruto Uzumaki and Gaara Sabaku, and we were wondering if we could get our schedules."

The lady looked up and smiled. She seemed nice.

"Ah, yes. You speak English very well," she said smiling.

I smiled, "Thank you. We took some courses while in Japan."

She nodded and handed us our schedules with a bunch of other papers while saying, "Oh yes, I forgot. My name is Shizune. Here are your schedules. The others are forms that you have to fill out with your parent or guardian signature."

I stopped smiling and said, "It's just us."

"What do you mean?" she asked looking very confused.

I looked away, and took a deep breath. Gaara then pushed me out of the way, and said in his deep and kind of scary voice, "She means that we don't have a parent or guardian. It's just us."

Shizune looked shocked, and nodded, "Well, let me go and see what principal Tsunade has to say."

She took the phone and pressed a button on it. She then started to speak into it, but I wasn't listening to her. I was listening to what my cousins were saying. They were speaking in Japanese, and I was wondering why.

"Jeez Gaara, you didn't have to be so mean," Naruto whispered in a very loud voice.

Gaara just sighed and asked in a bored tone, "Naruto, do you know how to whisper?"

Naruto raised an eyebrow, "I am whispering."

Gaara rolled his eyes, and I laughed. I then said, "Well it doesn't really matter; we are speaking in Japanese so no one will really know what we're saying."

Naruto nodded in agreement, and asked, "Sakura, why'd you choke back there?"

I gave him a questioning look.

He gave me an indignant look, "Why'd you stop talking to that lady? Why'd Gaara have to step in?"

I slapped my head, "Weren't you listening to what she asked?"

He gave a cheeky smile, "I only heard the different tones of your voices, but not the words. That stuff is boring, plus it's in English."

I groaned, "No wonder you failed in school."

Gaara then said, "She asked about our parents."

Naruto stopped smiling, and said, "Oh."

Just then, this lady with huge breasts came out. She had a very loud voice when she said, "Welcome the Konoha High School! My name is Tsunade, and I am your principal."

Naruto's eyes widened when he saw her, and I hit him across the head.

"Stop staring," I whispered to him in Japanese.

"I can't…they're so…huge!" he said; he seemed to be a bit scared.

I laughed, "Do you think that they're going to eat you or something?"

He gave a shaky laugh, and I turned back to the principal.

"Sorry about that," I said to her sheepishly.

Her eyebrows rose in surprise, "You speak excellent English for a transfer student."

I blushed, "Thank you."

"Ok, anyways, so what happened to your parents?"

I looked away again, and Gaara responded, "They were murdered."

Tsunade looked surprised, "So you have no one. Not even a guardian, another relative. An aunt or maybe uncle that is staying with you?"

Gaara shook his head, "No one. Just us."

Tsunade looked unsure for a moment, and then she said, "Well then who is the most responsible out of you three."

Naruto quickly stuck a finger to me, and Gaara just nodded in my direction.

Tsunade looked at me and smiled, "You can sign the papers then." (A/N: Yeah, yeah. It's very unbelievable…but whatever)

I nodded, and we walked out of the office. I put the papers in my book bag, and we failed at going to our classes. We luckily were all put in the same classes, but we had a lot of trouble finding them.

At break, these girls started to walk over to us. The girl in front had blonde hair in a ponytail and bangs in the front. She had icy blue eyes and seemed to have a very outgoing attitude by the looks of how she walked and looked. Another had brown hair in two buns on the top of her head. She looked like someone who was very athletic. Another had long hair that went down to her waist and had these lavender but almost white eyes. She looked very very shy and timid.

"Hey we've never seen your faces around here!" the blonde girl called out.

I looked up, and said, "Hello, my name is Sakura Haruno; we're transfer students from Japan. These are my cousins, Naruto Uzumaki and Gaara Sabaku."

"I'm Ino Yamanaka," she said, and then raised an eyebrow. "So you've already heard the news about the hair? Wow I didn't know he was so popular." She then looked at Gaara. "And I would've never thought that your cousin was gay."

I blinked. I was really confused.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

She rolled her eyes, "Your hair, duh! You dyed it, because of that rumor that Sasuke likes girls with funny hair colors. You know that rumor wasn't real right? We spread that around to see if those idiots would really do it – no offense - and they did."

Now I was truly confused, "Who is Sasuke?"

She rolled her eyes, "Don't act like you don't know! You know, Sasuke Uchiha? The supposedly hottest guy ever?"

I blinked again, and processed what she said about dying my hair, "We don't dye our hair. It's natural."

Ino's eyes widened, "You're kidding right?"

I shook my head, and Gaara growled, "Wait! Did you just think I was gay?!"

Ino looked sheepish, "Sorry. It's just that we spread this rumor that Sasuke Uchiha likes girls with funny hair colors to see if they would dye their hair. They did, and even some guys did. See Sasuke is this gorgeous guy, but he has the worst attitude ever. So, a ton of girls really like him, and it's kind of stupid."

I nodded, and then Naruto rudely blurted out, "Wow, no offense, but I would think you would be part of that group. I mean, your hair is blond and you are Asian."

Ino looked mad, "I might look like it, but that guy is the biggest jerk ever! He thinks he all that! His parent's spoil him, and he thinks that he can get whatever he wants just because of his looks and money! I don't understand how he even has friends! Ugh! I just can't stand him! Plus, you're Asian and your hair is blond! So there!" She stomped her foot on the ground to add to the effect.

I tried to fight back a giggle but failed. She raised an eyebrow to me and I bit my lip to try and stop laughing. I then studied her closer. She looked familiar…I just couldn't say where I met her. Then I remembered her name, Ino. That sounded really familiar. I then remembered back to my childhood when I was teased for my wide forehead. I remembered a girl with blonde hair and piercing blue eyes who helped me whose name happened to be…

"Ino?" I mumbled.

She faced me, "Yeah?"

My eyes widened in realization. The same bossy and outgoing attitude, the same hair and eyes, and if I imagined her a little younger and shorter hair they were exactly the same!

"Ino! It's me Sakura!" I said with excitement.

She blinked, "Yes, you've said that already."

I bit my lip trying to think of a way to help her remember. What if she wasn't the Ino I knew back in Japan? What if I was just imaging it?

"Uh, you lived in Japan right?" I asked uncertainly.

Her eyebrows rose, "How did you know that?"

I smiled, "It's me! You helped me out with my forehead problem!"

I saw the girl with the two buns snicker and Ino's mouth opened wide.

"Sakura?" she asked in disbelief.

I nodded and she gave me a hug.

"I can't believe it! This is my long lost little sister!" she called out enthusiastically.

I gave her a glare, "Hey, who are you calling little?"

She smirked, "I'm sorry, but to me you'll always be little."

I gave her a glare and asked, "Can you help us find our classes?"

Ino calmed down from her out burst and shrugged. I handed her my schedule and she stared at it.

"All three of you have the same schedule?" she asked.

I nodded, and the girl with the buns in her hair then said, "Wow, you and Ino know each other from childhood…that's pretty cool. My name is Tenten. I like sports."

Ino smirked and muttered, "And violence."

Tenten shot her a look and muttered, "At least I'm not obsessed with shopping and looks."

Ino shrugged while staring at my schedule, "What's wrong with that?"

Tenten rolled her eyes, "You have no common sense either."

Ino didn't hear her this time…or she just ignored her. I looked around. This school was much bigger than the one we used to go to in Japan.

As I kept looking around, I noticed the girl – the one with really long hair and lavender/white eyes – staring at Naruto. He obviously was oblivious to it and was talking about how he wanted to see this Sasuke dude and beat him up or something (cocky as usual). Tenten then nudged Hinata, and she fell out of her daze.

"My name is Hinata Hyuuga," she said quietly and quickly.

Naruto then looked over at her, and smiled. She turned as red as a tomato.

"Hi Hinata-chan!" he yelled slinging an arm around her. "I'm Naruto, but you can call me Naruto-kun!"

"H-Hinata-chan…Naruto-kun?" she asked obviously dazed. She looked like she was going to faint.

"Yeah! Ano…how do you say this? In Japan, we…ano…" Naruto stopped, and put a hand on his chin in thought.

He then switched to Japanese, "Hey Sakura-chan! Can you please explain to them?"

I rolled my eyes, "In Japan, we put the suffix of chan for a girl at the end. It's a sign of formality. For boys we put kun. For an even more formal way you put sama. For just random people/formalities you put san. Um…shisou is when you are-"

Naruto then rudely interrupted, "Yeah, yeah, they get the point. Jeez Sakura-chan you make everything so…"

I smiled, "Perfect?"

He nodded stupidly then gave me a blank stare, "Wait…what does perfect mean again?"

Gaara rolled his eyes, and explained to him in Japanese.

Naruto then yelled, "Wait! That's not it!"

I laughed and Tenten asked, "Wait. If it's a way of formality, then why is Naruto acting all casual with Hinata?"

"Because he's Naruto," I replied.

Tenten blinked.

Gaara sighed, "It is formality, but it can also be used as a kind of…" He looked to me for help.

I smiled, "You also use it for boyfriend girlfriend kind of thing or close friendships."

Hinata blushed a deep red, and Naruto just stayed oblivious with his big goofy smile.

"Call me Naruto-kun, ok Hinata-chan? We can be the best friends!" he announced amazingly oblivious to Hinata's scarlet face.

"Ok, come on and we will show you the school," Ino said.

Right they showed us where our last class was, the bell rang, and Ino said, "Ok, why don't we hang out at lunch! Meet us over there!" She pointed to a tree in a garden box and I nodded.

Gaara, Naruto, and I ran to our class and made it just in time.

The teacher looked at us with a bright smile. He was dressed in a horrible green spandex suit and had the worst hair cut ever. He also had these HUGE eyebrows which were just plain freaky.

"AH! YOU MUST BE OUR NEW STUDENTS!" the teacher practically yelled. "WELCOME AND JOIN US IN OUR YOUTHFUL CLASS! YOU MAY MEET YOUR OTHER YOUTHFUL CLASSMATES SOME OTHER TIME!"

I just nodded, and he pulled us to him.

"OK CLASS! THIS IS…" he then looked at me and said super slowly, "What. Is. Your. Name?"

I groaned and rolled my eyes, "I can speak English."

His HUMONGOUS eyebrows rose, "You speak English very well."

I nodded, and said, "I'm Sakura Haruno and these are my cousins. The one in the red hair is Gaara Sabaku and-"

Naruto then interrupted me, "I'm Naruto Uzumaki!"

The teacher nodded and yelled, "WELCOME MY YOUTHFUL STUDENTS! YOU MAY CALL ME GAI! THIS IS AN ENGLISH CLASS FULL OF YOUTHFUL STUDENTS SUCH AS YOURSELVES!"

"Ok Gai-sensei," I said.

Suddenly a kid that looked EXACTLY like the teacher except maybe a younger version ran up to us. He stopped suddenly in front of me and kneeled on his knees. He grabbed my hand in his and gave me a bright smile.

"My beautiful Sakura, you are even more beautiful than a cherry blossom like your namesake. You are like a blossomed flower right in its springtime of youth, I admire you," he announced with his eyes shining.

Naruto and Gaara growled, Gaara grit his teeth and Naruto said, "Let. Go. Of. Her. Now."

I looked over to them and whispered to them in Japanese, "No it's ok. He's not bugging me; he's just weird and crazy I guess. If he starts to bug me I'll take care of him, you know I can."

Naruto raised his eyebrow and I just smiled and made a peace sign.

He rolled his eyes and Gaara looked like he was about to kill someone.

Gaara then cleared his throat and gave Gai his glare, "Aren't we supposed to be learning something?"

Gai shivered, then told the class our names and said, "Ok, Sakura you sit over in the corner over there. See by Sasuke. SASUKE, MY YOUTHFUL STUDENT THAT DISLIKES ME AND LISTENS TO MY ETERNAL RIVAL, RAISE YOUR HAND!"

I heard a sigh and saw an absolutely gorgeous boy raise his hand from the right corner of the room. I also heard screams of things like "How come she gets to sit next to Sasuke?! It's not fair!"

I just rolled my eyes and thought, Oh my gosh. He's just a guy! I mean he's a drop dead gorgeous guy and all, but he's just a guy! Wow, that sounds really stupid…I say he's gorgeous then I think that he's just a guy… Well I still don't get what's with these girls, I mean they just see him and faint? That's kind of messed up. Plus according to Ino, he's a real bratty jerk.

I walked over to where Sasuke sat, and smiled to him. I then turned over to see where Naruto and Gaara were. Naruto was already talking adamantly to the person next to him. The person looked cute kind of, and had these red-purplish triangle marks on his cheeks. He also had this wolfish kind of look and messy brown hair. I had to ask Naruto what his name was after this. I then tried looking for Gaara, but I couldn't see him from where I was sitting. All I could see was the top of his red head. I could see girls throwing glares at me as if trying to say, "If you talk to Sasuke I will KILL YOU!" I could now see why he was so full of himself and why he thought that he was all that. I could also see a couple of girls staring at Naruto and Gaara. I also saw quite a few guys staring at me which made me uncomfortable.

"So…You already dyed your hair? Wow I really am famous, but anyways good job on your hair. It actually looks real," Sasuke suddenly said nonchalantly.

I looked over to him. He looked really bored, but still gorgeous.

I then sighed and said, "No. My hair is natural and so are Gaara's and Naruto's."

He raised an eyebrow, "Really? I find that hard to believe."

I just shrugged, and he continued, "So, what's up between you and those boys? Are you having a threesome or something?"

I gave him a confused look and asked, "Threesome?"

He just laughed and gave me a smirk. Wow, he looked even better when he smirked…I wonder how he looked when he smiled. Then I shook my head and controlled my thoughts. This wasn't going well; I was starting to act like a crazed lovesick girl.

I am not like that; I am Sakura Haruno, one of the top in her class! I am not some idiot who falls in love over some guy that is cute! I thought this to myself over and over and quickly regained my morality.

I looked over to the teacher again; this seemed to make him mad.

"Hey, you know it's rude to look away from someone when they're talking," he growled.

I just rolled my eyes. Gosh this guy was full of himself! Not every girl has to be in love with him and bow to him.

"Yeah, it's also rude for people to talk while the teacher is talking."

He glared at me, and then smirked, "You really don't know who you are talking to."

I rolled my eyes again. Couldn't he see that I was actually listening to the teacher?

"Actually yes I do. I'm talking to the school's supposed handsomest guy who also happens to be the most biggest annoying jerk in the WORLD."

He smirked again, "Wow, I didn't know transfer students knew such big words. Watch out, you might just use up all of your brain cells in one sentence."

I seethed. GOSH THIS GUY WAS SO ANNOYING. I then decided to stop talking to him.

"Wow nothing to say huh? And I thought that we were having fun. I guess you really did use up all your words."

I let out a deep breath and ignored him, but he kept going, "You know, maybe I am the handsomest guy. You should be happy about this; any other girl would kill for me to talk to them."

I rolled my eyes; he really was full of himself.

"Yeah, well I'm not any other girl," I said hotly and turned away.

He seemed surprised by my words and left me alone.

Finally the period was over, and I grabbed my book bag and rushed to the front of the classroom.

A/N: Tell me what you think...I'm new to this!!!
