"SAKURA HARUNO DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH THAT!" I turned, and saw the chemistry teacher staring at me with her angry, red eyes.
"Why not?" I asked insightfully.
"Because it'll explode all over you if touch it. You need to these tongs, see?"
"Oh, sorry Sensei."
You've probably been wondering 'who the hell are you?' Well, I'll give you a short introduction, because I'm going to flunk chemistry if I don't pay attention. My name is Sakura Haruno, age 15. Right now I'm in KHS, which stands for Konoha High School. I'm one of those students who have really good grades, but stink at P.E. My best friends are Ino, Tenten, Temari and Hinata. They'd stick by me no matter what happens. I have this MAJOR crush on this extremely cool guy named Sasuke Uchiha. Practically every girl in school has a crush on him because he's really cool, smart, and athletic. My homeroom teacher is Mr. Kakashi. He's kind of like Sasuke-kun, only older and- OMG THE TEACHER JUST CALLED ON ME.
"Miss Haruno, would you like to spend the day in the principal's office?"
"No, Ms. Kurenai."
"Then pay more attention."
"Hai, Kurenai-Sensei."
Sigh, today has been my worst day ever, first being rejected by Sasuke-kun, then finding out I almost failed my math test, then realizing I forgot my flute at home and had to play the "stick" for music class (the "stick" is a stick that you pretend to play…), and now this. Today is so not my day.
"Ah! The bell rang! Bye Ms. Kurenai!" My best friend Ino said. Saved by the bell!
"Thanks so much for noticing the bell, Ino. I was about to die," I told her when we were in the hallway.
"No prob, I was dying to get out of class too."
"Hey guys!" My other friend Tenten greeted.
"Hi Tenten! How was Social Studies class?"
"Ugh, you know how much I hate that class. So boring."
"Well it was probably better than Science class today! Ms. Perfect almost went to the principal's office!"
"No way! Sakura, really?"
"Ugh, Ino, you and your big mouth. Yeah, I did."
"Wow, that must have scared you. Hey look, it's Ms. Tsunade, the principal!"
"Hello girls! How was class today?"
"Hi, Ms. Tsunade! Class was fine." Tenten replied.
"That's great! You better hurry off to class now!"
"Hai, Ms. Tsunade!"
As I ran to my next class, Writing, I passed Sasuke-kun standing on the big leaf. The leaf is our mascot. It's a swirl with a triangle coming out from the bottom left corner. It's very artistic for a leaf.
"Hey Sasuke-kun!"
"Hn."
"Aren't you going to be late for class? You don't even have your materials."
"…I'm missing class for the basketball tournament."
Oh yeah! I also forgot to say that Sasuke-kun is SOO GOOD at basketball! Whichever team he's on, the team is bound to win! (Which is good because he's in my team!) He gets to miss school sometimes for his tournaments! I'd miss school any day just to watch him play!
"You'll be late if you don't get to your class."
CRAP! CLASS IS GOING TO START IN ONE MINUTE!
"Thanks Sasuke-kun for telling me that!" I said as I rushed through the hallway.
Oh crap, this really is the worst day ever. Maybe if I'm quiet enough, they won't notice!
"So nice of you to join us Miss Haruno."
DAMMIT! I was so close to my desk!
"Hehe, sorry sensei! I kinda lost track of the time!"
"Very likely story…please take a seat."
"Hai."
After I sat down, I noticed a note on my desk. I opened it up and it read:
Dear Sakura-Chan,
Why is my life so meaningless? It is because I don't have a special person to share my life to. If only that person was you.
Love,
Your Secret Admirer.
Me? I have a secret admirer? Hmmm… Naruto could have written that. Or Lee could've. Ugh, it probably was Lee. But what if it was…Sasuke-kun? That'd make my day! Oops, I'd better pay attention otherwise I'll get yelled at for the 10th time today.
"Now, place your commas here, here…"
If only class was less boring, then it wouldn't be such a pain to pay attention. OK SAKURA! FOCUS!
"If you put a semi colon here, then you were incorrect…"
Snore…yawn…snore…
"Ok! One last announcement before we go up to the library! There will be a test on this next Friday! Everyone better be paying attention!"
My eyelids snapped open. CRAP. I didn't listen to anything the teacher said. I better consult Hinata again for help again. At least I have a friend who pays attention and like to help me.
"SAKURA!! I bet you'll flunk that test!" Ino piped up.
"Shut up, Ino. If I get an F, you'd get an F----."
"Says the person who got a D on the math class," Ino smirked.
"Hey Sakura! Hey Ino!"
"Oh hi Temari! Hi Hinata!"
"H-hello everyone."
"Hey Hinata, could you help me study for the writing test?"
"Sure Sakura!"
"Thanks so much Hinata! You're the best!" I said eyeing Ino who looking like nothing had happened.
"OH EM GEE! SASUKE-KUN IS BACK!!"
"Sasuke-kun? Where? All I see is a crowd of cheerleaders."
"He's in that crowd."
Sasuke's Point of View
I just got back to school. Before I even get to my locker, the cheerleaders mob me. How fun. I'm limping like crazy and they've just made it worse.
"GET OFF ME!" I yelled pushing them away.
"But we're just congratulating you!"
"For what? We LOST!"
"We're not congratulating you for that! It's for being so athletic!"
"YEAH!" All the cheerleaders shouted.
Ow. I think my ear is now bleeding.
"JUST GO AWAY!"
"NU! We want to stay by you! Besides, it's lunch time! We won't be late for lunch!"
Sakura's P.O.V.
"You heard him! Go away!"
They all turned. Wait? Who said that? WAS THAT ME?
"So, forehead girl, you think you can beat us?"
"Uhh…"
"Yeah. She can."
We all turned around and saw Sasuke-kun speaking those words. Sasuke-kun? Standing up for me? What kind of world do I live in??
"Sasuke-kun? Why are you standing up for that loser of a girl?"
"…Because she's not a loser. NOW GET LOST!"
"Sasuke-kun? I'm not a loser?"
"…Hn."
"Well, we'd better get outside before lunch ends." (A/N: Yes, they can eat outside…isn't life great at KHS?)
"…See ya…"
"Bye."
I can't believe it. What. The. Hell. Just. Happened? Sasuke said I wasn't a loser. After saying I was like 100 times. Maybe he's a hypocrite. HE'S A HYPOCRITE OMG!
"INO! INO!"
"Huh? Oh, hey Sakura! Come sit over here with us!"
As I ran to the table they were at, I wondered, is Sasuke REALLY a hypocrite? He doesn't seem like the type. He's a serious guy, he'd probably keep his word. …Maybe he was just lying for one of those statements…
"Hey, Forehead girl, why are you so late for lunch? Usually, you're the first one out here." Ino asked.
"You won't believe it! I saw Sasuke getting mobbed by cheerleaders and I stood up for him!"
"Ouch, you must've gotten killed after that didn't you?" Tenten implied.
"No! That's the weird part! The cheerleaders said I was a loser, and then Sasuke stood up for me!"
"WHAAAT?" Ino, Tenten and Temari exclaimed.
"I know! It's so weird! He would never do that!" I grinned. "Maybe he actually likes me!"
"KEEP DREAMING BILLBOARD BROW! HE'S MINE!!" Ino reprimanded.
"Well, he never stood up for you, has he?"
"No, but that's because…uh…he's really shy!"
"Um, Ino, h-he isn't really s-shy," Hinata piped up.
"…"
"HA! See, he does like me!" I smirked at Ino.
"…FINE. Thanks a lot Hinata."
"I-I'm sorry I-Ino. I j-just wanted to point out…"
"That, you have no sympathy for me at all."
I noticed that Hinata was feeling really awful so I said to Ino, "Don't be so hard on Hinata like that Ino! She just wanted to point out something! It's not her fault, it's mine!"
"…"
"Oh come on Ino! Just forgive Hinata already!" Temari groaned.
"Ok. I forgive you Hinata."
"I'm s-sorry Ino."
"It's ok."
You may think this is strange, but that happens at least two times a week. I know, we're crazy.
After lunch, I opened my locker and out came a letter. Curiously, I opened the letter. It said:
Dear Sakura-Chan.,
Thank you so much.
Love,
Your Secret Admirer.
OH MY GOD! Maybe it is Sasuke! I saved him from the cheerleaders! He's saying thank you!! But then again, I help a lot of people… like today I helped Naruto with his science project…and I helped Kiba with math… I had to be so nice…
"Hey, Sakura-Chan!"
I turned and saw Naruto running up to me.
"Hi Naruto."
"Sakura-Chan, do you know what our gym homework was?"
"There isn't any gym homework…"
"I know, but there was something I wanted to remember… that had something to do with running…"
"Um, I don't think I know…"
"OH! NOW I REMEMBER! I was going to race Sasuke! Come watch me make him cry!" Naruto grinned.
"...No thanks…"
"I was just kidding! Anyway, thanks for helping me remember! Bye Sakura-Chan!"
"…You're welcome?"
As Naruto ran off, I had only one thing in my mind. I WILL FIND THAT ADMIRER EVEN IF I DIE DOING SO!
