Chapter 1: The Start of Love
They have been friends for many years now, growing up together, went to the same school since grade school, and had the same group of friends. They all are high school students in 10th grade now.
[Sakura's POV]
I was sitting in my seat during homeroom with Ino sitting in front of me as she talked about how lazy Shikamaru can be, as usual. And I'm only listening half way to her, while I write things in my notebook and doodle near the edges of the page; music running through my thoughts.
"Sakura are you even freaking listening to me?" Ino asked quite loudly in my ear, making me jump back to reality.
"What? Yeah, you were talking about how lazy Shikamaru is." I replied looking up at her.
"Yeah, yeah whatever girl." Ino said, sticking out her tongue and then turned around in her seat to talk to Tenten sitting next to her.
Not everyone was in homeroom just yet; they still had a few more minutes before the bell rang. Though it didn't really matter if you were late to homeroom as long has you're here before our teacher, which he's usually always 20-30 minutes late anyway. I turned my attention back to my notebook, rereading what I had already written down. While reading it I was tapping my pencil with the beat in my head. Once I finished, I suddenly felt a pair of eyes on me so I looked in the direction it was coming from. There in the doorway stood Uchiha Sasuke looking at me. He nodded to me as a greeting, after we made eye contact and I nodded back to him. I turned my attention back to my notebook doodling one more sakura flower on the edge of the page and closed it, putting my pencil down. Sasuke came and sat on my right; as soon as he did the bell rang starting homeroom. It was quieter than usual, so I looked to my left looking for Naruto but he wasn't there.
"He must be running late." I thought with a shrug. I went back to my thoughts but got snapped right back out of them when I heard the door open. Looking up, I saw Naruto panting from running all the way to the classroom from the parking lot. He came to sit in his seat and looked over to me than to Sasuke.
"Hey, Sakura-chan; teme," He said smiling at both of us.
"Hey Naruto," I replied shortly, leaning back into my seat.
"Dobe," Sasuke said while taking out a notebook and pen, and started writing. Naruto shrugged and sat down in his seat on my left and turned to talk to Hinata sitting in front of him, who blushed at him. Closing my eyes, I picked up my pencil and began tapping it again.
[Sasuke's POV]
After I started writing in my notebook, I heard tapping of a pencil playing a beat different from the one in my head. I stopped what I was doing and looked to my left at Sakura. Sitting there leaning back in her seat, eyes closed, tapping her pencil to a beat in her head. I sat there watching her for a few minutes, watching how her lips move a few times as if she was singing words to the beat.
I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the classroom door open, and Kakashi walked into the room holding his orange book that he is always reading. Once Kakashi got to his desk everyone in the classroom stopped talking, leaving the room quiet except for the tapping of a pencil, still coming from Sakura. I looked over to her and noticed that she sat up straight now, eyes open looking forward and tapping her pencil on top of her notebook in a different beat than before yet still similar to the one she was making a few minutes ago.
"I wonder what she's thinking about." I thought. After a while first period had started, and Kakashi started class. I tuned in and out of the lesson mostly in my own deep thoughts, writing some of my lyrics in my notebook. I didn't realize that I was lightly tapping my foot until I felt a pair of eyes on me. Looking to my left I found Sakura looking towards me with a look of wonder in her jade green eyes. We made eye contact for what felt like forever to me but really it was only a few minutes. I smirked at her, turning to a new page in my notebook and ripping it out, writing 'I'm bored as hell'on it, folding it up and tossed it onto her desk.
Sakura quickly looked at the note on her desk then back at me and smiled slightly shaking her head. She opened the note and quietly laughed at what I wrote and started to write back. Once she was done she refolded it and handed the note back to me. I opened the piece of paper back up and read what she wrote.
'Yea, I know. I am too since the stupid perv is
being a lazy ass and just reviewing stuff that
we already know'
I smirked and wrote back,
'Yea, he is a lazy ass perv, maybe getting close to
as lazy as Shikamaru.'
After refolding the note, I checked to make sure Kakashi wasn't paying attention and throw the note at the side of Sakura's head. Sakura whipped her head over to glare at me. I just smirked at her in return. Sakura rolled her eyes and turned to the note to read it, smiling while replying. My eyes didn't move off of her the whole time. Sakura tossed the note back, trying to get me back for hitting her in the head with it, but I caught it before it even came close. Looking over towards her still smirking which I could tell that it pissed her off even more, and my smirk grew wider. Looking down to read her response.
'Uchiha! You fucking bastard!
I will get you back for that.'
Rolling my eyes, I laughed under my breath as I replied.
'Hn, I'd like to see you try, Haruno.'
When I was finished I noticed that Sakura had been watching me the whole time, making me smirk inwardly. Tossing the paper back onto Sakura's desk, I waited for her to write back. It didn't take her long before she put the note back onto my desk. Reading it I just shook my head.
'Oh, you won't even see it coming.'
After thinking for a minute, I started to write my reply.
'Don't make me laugh Sakura, you can't touch me.'
I flung it back at her and leaned back into my seat. "Ha, I can't wait to see her try." I thought. We had to stop our conversation for a while since Kakashi handed out a test, because he was tired of teaching, but we all know that he only wanted to read his stupid book. Even though most of us were finished within 5 to 10 minutes with the test, he didn't make us do anything else for the rest of the class period.
As I sat back in my seat, I began thinking of the song I've been writing. I don't truly know why there's this feeling I have when I'm working on it. It's a very warm feeling, and for some reason I'm always thinking of Sakura when I am working on this song. When I told Naruto this, he said that it was because I love her, but I'm not sure what exactly I feel about her. If I really do love her, what am I supposed to do just tell her how I feel? I don't want to ruin our friendship, and what if she doesn't like me that way, it would cross the line. I don't think I can take that big of a chance. "I'm not going to say anything about it to Sakura until I know for sure how I really feel, and especially not until I know how she feels too." I thought to myself.
[Sakura's POV]
My mind is on Sasuke after our conversation. For some reason I can't stop thinking about how amazing his smirk is. "His smile is even better though." My Inner says. It's true; especially sense those smiles are rare. As rare as they may be, when I see them for some reason it always feels like I'm the one who made him smile. It sounds crazy to me, but when I told Ino and the girls this they just say that it's because I am the one who makes him smile. I always tell them that I doubt it.
I've been thinking about Sasuke a lot lately. I have no clue why, but I have especially when I'm writing this new song. When I think about it long enough I always end up with butterflies in my stomach. I have a feeling that I'm starting to like him more than just my best friend, but what if I do? I don't think that I'll be able to tell him. "It would ruin everything between us if I said anything, and it would make everything awkward if I did tell him and he doesn't feel the same way." I thought to myself, while tapping my pencil. "I'm almost done with this song, I just need somewhere quiet. I'm pretty sure no one will be home after school." I made plans in my head.
When I heard the bell ring, I realized that I was in my own world for a longer time than I thought. Everyone started to gather their stuff and began to go to their next class, when I noticed that Sasuke was waiting for me. After grabbing my notebook, pen, and our note off of my desk I shoved them into my messenger bag, and got up to walk over to him. We starting to walk to our next period that we had together, art class, one of my favorites.
