Disclaimer: Let me just get this straight, if I did own Naruto then I wouldn't be DREAMING of writing a fanfic now would I? So no suing people cuz I own not one ounce of Naruto, NADA,ZIP! All fame goes to the author, I just own the story idea.
Chapter 1
Outside my window I watched the road pass us by without a care in the world. I propped my elbow on ledge of the seat and lazily stared out at the towns which are quickly dissolving from my sight. Somehow deep inside me I was excited that we're finally moving out of our old town. And deeply appreciated the fact that I will never have to face our old neighbors again.
Numerous times have I been criticized about my talent, a talent which was looked down upon. Kanusuke was a town where the needle from a haystack was considered the odd ball out. And I was one of those.
Switching my gaze from the window car to my parent I secretly admired his decision to leave that lame excuse for a town. No offense to those who do like it. I noticed my dad giving me a smile from the mirror while he was driving, not helping it I smiled back. My dad was a weird one to say the least but he's done quite a lot after mom died. One of mom's last requests was for dad to take good care of me, and boy, did he do a good job.
Dad also has a weird combination of looks but that's what made him charming to mom. Silver, silky hair that was short to his ear, adding to that was the fact that he had almost glossy green emerald eyes which had a tinge of silver in them. Now the eyes, which im proudly grateful for, is what I inherited from him. Along with the pink bubble gum hair I got from mom. Weird combination isn't it?
"A penny for your thoughts Sakura?" He asked still keeping his eyes on the road.
I smiled and looked out the window once more. "Nothing that you don't already know, dad. I'm just worried about the new town we're moving in."
He chuckled. "I'm sure you'll do fine sweetheart, I mean, a girl like you can get popular very easily. Besides, I know you'll fit in quite well in this new town."
I rolled my eyes at the 'popular' comment. Me, popular? That description doesn't fit me.
"Well, I hope so. Maybe I can even get a few friends along the way." I said the last part almost cheerfully but you can see the sadness in my eyes. Dad noticed that and kept his mouth shut not knowing what else to say to that comment.
He instantly brightened up when we saw the new town on the horizon. "Look Sakura! We're here." We drove inside town and stopped at the house we bought only a few weeks ago. I stepped out the car and walked up to the gate surrounding the building. It was beautiful to say the least, no, not beautiful, amazing. I couldn't tear my eyes away from the sight, outside there was flowers in a creative designed way and trees on both sides of the house. But that's not all, the house itself was amazing, a two story building the looked kinda retro with the balconies visible in sight. It was painted with brown and light brown colors making it look comfortable and relaxing.
I gave dad a very bright smiling saying that I was very happy. He smiled softly in return.
"I love it, dad. I really really love it."
"I'm happy that you like it and I know you cant wait until you see your room."
Totally impatient to see what he meant, I ran inside the house to my room and practically slammed the door open. Now this is a time where I use a move that you can only imagine on tv. My jaw dropped.
Who wouldn't be amazed at the sight? It's like every girls dream! The bed was sprawled with a light pink and red polka dotted sheet and multiple pillows that look comfortable enough to cuddle. The floor was covered in white carpet and the desk was already bundled up with my favorite books. Not to mention the wall, it was painted with a light hot pink color finishing the affect of the room.
It was too good to be true, almost like a crime.
I felt dad behind me waiting for my comment on the room, he then started to look nervous when I hadn't produced an answer. I turned to look at him the crushed him with my hug.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love it! I can't believe you designed all of this."
He made a motion that went along the lines of 'your crushing me' so I let him go. He then gave me a very soft smile.
"I'm glad you like your room very much, because this was also what your mom used to love. Pink was her favorite color." A silence was swept over us at the mention of mom but soon we snapped out of it before we headed down to depression lane.
"Anyways, I'll leave you to your room sweetheart and when you're done meet me downstairs because we're having taco." He gave me one last hug then descended downstairs to start dinner. After he left I threw myself on the bed and let out a happy sigh. This day couldn't get any better, a new house, a new town, a new life, and a new school. Hope swirled within me at the thought that this place might, just might accept me for who I really am. I might even find great friends who won't abandon me.
Flashback:
"Sakura, what are you doing here?" a red-headed girl said, shocked to see me there. I could tell she was hiding something just by the way she couldn't keep eye contact with me.
"I just came here to see the movie that we promised to see together, but you cancelled saying that you were busy." I looked over Karin's shoulder to see her unexpected friends. I frowned. I knew those faces, the very same faces that pick and bully me every single day. The popular girls.
"Karin? What's going on?" I asked, my voice almost shaking.
She gave me an apologetic look but started walking towards her friends. One of them came up to me, the leader, and actually spit in my face. Shocked I backed up a few steps and looked at Karin wondering what the hell was going on.
"Witch. Get your ass out of here because none of us want to see your ugly forehead and your ugly body." The leader said cruelly, laughing with everyone else.
Karin was just standing there not really knowing what, actually letting this girl make fun of me. I turned my attention back to the girl in front of me and glared. But I knew other than to say something back. This girl was very rich and powerful and one wrong move could ruin everything for my father.
So instead I walked away and to my utter horror, the girls were still laughing behind my back thinking that this was a joke.
End flashback
I felt a stinging tug on my heart whenever I remember that nightmarish time. I forgave Karin for what she did, because I'm merciful like that, but I made sure that she didn't come near me again. The heartbreak was too much for me to handle.
I opened my luggage case and piled all the clothes on my bed. Organizing all of them in their respectful places before going over and taking my favorite notebooks out. These notebooks are the very reason I have no friends. How can I say this…I use the words I write down, the emotions I put into them and make them into real life tools. A power you could say, that was passed down through the Haruno family, a curse but also a blessing. I love the feeling of words slipping past my fingers and onto a page. The feel of an actual book within my grasp and the wonderful vocabulary used to describe them. Excitement shot through my body at the mention of words, it's an actual blessing that I could use the words I write down to portrait any shape I wish. Curse, because of the fearful peers and the society that shuns me out of their lives.
Satisfied with how I unpacked my belongings, I ran downstairs and sat down at the kitchen table. My gaze trailed around the kitchen and I got to say, this made the house feel more beautiful. I saw dad pass me a plate of tacos and sat down across from me.
"So did you unpack everything?" he asked while picking up a taco.
I also reached for my taco before answering. "Yeah I already put most of my things together; all that's left is to put up our family pictures." I took a bite out of my food and chewed slowly, then looked up at dad.
"Hey dad…"
He swallowed his food to answer, "Yes daughter?" Can I ask him, the question that might affect our lives here?
"Should I…you know, tell everyone about-" I was cut off by him setting a assuring hand on my arm. "No don't worry about that honey, I'm positive that everyone will accept you."
"But how do you-"
"Because I'm your all knowing father." He said while winking at me. I couldn't help but smile at him and resumed my eating. A few weights lifted from shoulders but still not enough to ease my growing doubt. Let's just hope that father is right.
A little bit short, yes I know, but it's only the beginning! Deidara will be mentioned later in the story so no rush with the romance but when he does show up, art will be a BANG.
