Naomi sighed as she got out of her new, black car...well it was new to her but in actuality it was used and only a few years old, still in good condition and all that. As she got out she looked around at her new school. Her family just moved to the big city of Konoha because of her dad getting an extremely well paying job out here and now they were all starting over; new house, new neighborhood, new cars, new school, new jobs, and the annoying part of making new friends. Naomi was happy she at least was allowed to keep her three dogs: Takeo the Saint Bernard, Takeru the German Shepherded, and Ai the Akita.

Naomi looked around at her new school, it was huge; four stories and a roof you could go on. She noticed everyone had their own styles to the school uniform. The uniforms were black skirts, loafers, white button up shirts, any colored ties, white shocks, and black jackets for the girls. Naomi wore hers as it should be except for she wore black thigh high socks and some fingerless gloves, her tie was red. Guys uniforms on the other hand were black pants, loafers, white button up shirts, black jackets and a tie.

"Well, here I go." She muttered under her breath.

Naomi walked into the school and wandered around trying to find her classes while looking down at her schedule every five seconds to try to not getting lost...which didn't help. "I'm so fucken lost." She muttered not having any idea where her classes were. As she turned down a hall she bumped into someone successfully knocking herself to the ground.

"Oof, sorry." The person stated when getting walked into.

Naomi looked up at who she bumped into and saw a relatively tall blonde looking down at her. He had bright blue eyes, lines on his cheeks, his blonde hair was spiked all over the place. He wore his uniform so the jacket was open and he had a T-shirt on under his white button up shirt and no tie.

In turn said blonde boy took in her appearance. He took in her golden colored eyes (reminded him of an owl), auburn hair that went midway down her back, was layered and with bangs cut so they covered the left side of her face. The hair was teased a bit and pencil straight. She wore black eyeliner and gray eye shadow, her ears were pierced three times on her left ear and four on her right (the fourth being at the top of her ear), she had on a cross necklace, and rings. He then took in her actual figure as he helped her up. she was a bit on the short side, pale skin, curvy, busty, and he noticed as she bent down to pick her stuff back up off the floor she had a nice ass too.

"Thanks." She muttered as he quickly helped her pick up her stuff too.

"No problem, I'm Naruto by the way." He replied.

" Naomi." She answered.

"Where you from?"

"A somewhat small town. My dad got a well paying job here so I just moved here."

"Sweet, what grade are you in?"

"I'm a junior."

"Me too, so you're sixteen too then?"

"Mhm."

"Cool. So this must be a pretty big change for you then?" Naruto asked; already liking this new girl.

"Yeah it is."

''Well, at least you got one new friend now huh?" He stated grinning.

"Heh, guess so, now if you're truly my new friend you'll show me to my classes." She joked.

'Ha-ha sure what's your schedule?" He laughed and Naomi handed it to him; he looked it over and grinned. "Well you've got first hour with me so that's easy enough and sixth hour." He read. "I'll show you to them all."

"Lead the way my new found friend!" she joked.

Naruto lead her to all her classes and then they started heading to their first hour together; History. As they walked they told each other more about themselves; becoming fast friends. Once the bell rang they moved a little faster so not to be late and as they speed walked they saw a guy zip by with a bunch of girls following him.

"Sasuke-teme!! Don't be late for class!" Naruto yelled after the guy.

"Shut it dobe!" He yelled back.

"Who was that?" Naomi asked.

"Sasuke Uchiha, number one most popular guy in school, ties with the senior Neji for the title of number two genius in the school -Shikamaru has been and will always rank number one since he's a super genius. Sasuke exhales in everything he does, all the girls love him-" At this point Naomi noted the bitter jealousy in his voice. "and he's like a brother to me." Naruto finished and that threw her off but she decided it wasn't her business really (that and she didn't care).

"Naruto, you're late." Their teacher stated as they walked through the sliding doors. The teacher had silver hair and wore a mask.

"Sorry Kakashi-sensei. I was showing Naomi around, she's new." Naruto stated pointing to Naomi.

"Oh, you're the new student." The teacher stated checking his roster. "Alright, Naruto take your seat and Naomi come up here and introduce yourself." He ordered.

"What do I say?" Naomi asked as she walked over to him and faced the class.

"Name, what you liked and dislike, hobbies, a bit about yourself, you known." He answered.

"Um ok, I'm Naomi, um I'm 16 and I moved here from a small town, I'm nice until you piss me off. I don't really care about much. Uh, I like drawing and more morbid things. I dislike preps and most things girly, I have lots of hobbies." She told the class.

"Alright good, go take a seat by Naruto he'll help you out since you seem to already know each other." Kakashi told her.

Naomi took her seat between Naruto and a shy looking but very pretty girl with long black hair that almost shimmered indigo, white eyes (she looked blind but clearly wasn't), and she wore her uniform normal except for she wore a lavender sweater vest over her white shirt instead of a black jacket and her boobs were practically bursting out of it. She also had a violet tie and her shocks were rolled down to her ankles.

"That's Hinata." Naruto introduced; noticing her watching her. Hinata blushed as Naruto looked at her and looked down shyly.

"Hey." Naomi greeted casually.

"Hi." She mumbled shyly.

Kakashi got their attention and everyone began to work. While doing independent work Kakashi gave Naomi all the things she needed for class and gave her a run down on how things worked and all that. When the class ended everyone filed out of class and Naruto told Naomi he'd see her later.

Naomi went to her second hour (English) and found it easy enough thanks to Naruto showing her around earlier. She walked into the classroom to see her teacher was an old man with extremely long white hair. She introduced herself like she did before and was told to sit down in the back, between a sleeping boy with brown hair pulled up into a ponytail and a red headed boy.

Naomi stared at the red head; mentally drooling, his eyes were pale green/blue eyes that were void of all emotion, around the eyes was a lode of eyeliner, he had love tattooed onto his forehead. He wore the uniform how it should be with a crimson red tie. His ears were also pierced three times in both ears and gothic rings were on his fingers along with black nail polish.

Naomi caught herself staring as he glared at her and lightly blushed sitting down, looking at her desk embarrassed. When she felt normal again she looked over at the other boy. His uniform was as it should be with dark green and gray tie. His black jacket was hung over the back of his chair. As she examined him she noticed he hadn't budged. curiously she leaned over and poked him.

"What are you doing?" He asked peaking an eye open as she poked him.

"Sorry, I wanted to make sure you weren't dead, you weren't moving." She replied. He grumbled and sat up yawning then turned to get a good look at her. "I'm Naomi." She introduced.

"I heard you up there." He stated nodding to the front of the classroom where they should have been paying their attention to instead of talking.

"Oh." She wasn't really sure how to respond to that.

"I'm Shikamaru by the way." He added.

Naomi ended up talking to Shikamaru in the back of the class for the whole hour (with the exception of when the teacher came over and gave her the class syllabus and all that). They discovered they had a lot in common, they were both lazy as sin, sarcastic, hated work, smart, smart asses, and were becoming fast friends.

When the bell rang Naomi headed to her Chemistry class. When she entered she discovered her teacher was a scary guy with long black hair, deathly pale skin, and creepy, yellow, snake eyes. He made her say her name and told her to take a seat somewhere after giving her the class syllabus and everything. He defiantly gave off the vibe of not a friendly person.

Naomi looked around and found a spot in the back of the room where she could sit by herself. she took that seat and looked around. she spotted that guy Naruto had been talking about earlier and now that he wasn't running she got a good look at him. His raven black hair was done up in an emo style; bangs framing his face and spiked up in the back so he resembled a cockatoo. His eyes were charcoal black, his skin pale, and his features very sharp and defined like those of a noble. He wore his uniform exactly as it should be but with the sleeves to his jacket and white button up shirt rolled up to his elbows, his jacket was unbuttoned and he had a blue and gray tie.

Naomi then turned to the person sitting next to him. She thought it was a girl wearing pants instead of a skirt since the person had long, dark brown, hair down its back and tied in a ponytail at the tips of it, but as the person turned to talk to Sasuke she found it was actually a guy (judging by his eyes she suspected he was related to Hinata) he too had noble, aristocratic features, he wore his uniform completely proper and professional looking, with the jacket buttoned up and it also showed signs of being more expensive than the rest, his tie was black. She could tell he was rich; she suspected that of Sasuke as well.

As the class went by Naomi kept to herself and when the class ended she went to lunch. With some difficulty of being lost she found her way to the cafeteria and got herself some lunch. After getting a salad she looked around for a place to sit. She spotted Naruto sitting with a large crowd (some of them she recognized from her classes) and went to him.

"Hey Naruto, can I sit with you guys?" She asked as she reached him; slightly nervous.

"Huh? Oh yeah! Sure!" Naruto replied eagerly and made room for her between himself and the still glaring (hot) red head. She began to wonder if it was permanently glued to his face.

"Ok so, this is Gaara." Naruto began introducing ready to go around the table when she took her seat. Naruto pointed to the red head. "He's my best friend, but not much of a people person."

"I got that." She muttered.

"And you already met Hinata, she's the shy one but she's really nice and sweet." Naruto continued and Naomi watched Hinata's face flare up from the complement. "That's Shikamaru the lazy one." Naruto kept going unfazed by the blushing girl.

"I met him in English." Naomi cut in.

"Cool, that's Choji he likes food.' Naruto pointed to a big guy going to town on his lunch and eyeing sweets the others had. "That's Shino, really weird and quiet and likes bugs." Naruto pointed to a boy with spiky dark hair and shades. "He's Kiba, likes dogs and one of my rivals. We're both into sports and are currently on the football team.' Naruto pointed to a brown haired boy with odd markings on his face and almost slitted black eyes.

"You're football players?" She asked surprised, Naruto didn't look like a football player type.

"Well really we tryout and compete for most sports right now it's football, I'm quarterback and Kiba's wide receiver. Personally though I love soccer. It's my sport."

"Cool I guess."

"Anyway moving along, That's Neji the genius." Naruto pointed to the guy she thought was a chick at first. "And Sasuke-teme." Naruto jabbed his thumb at the guy sitting on his other side. "the pink haired girl and the blonde are his fan girls and cheerleaders. Sakura and Ino." Naruto pointed to a girl with short pink hair and green eyes. She looked pretty average looking, the other was beautiful; she had long blonde hair tied in a high ponytail with bangs covered half her face and blue eyes. Pinky wore her uniform normally with a pink tie and white knee high socks but Blondie wore it without a jacket or tie, unbuttoned so it showed her cleavage, tied above her belly button, the skirt hung off her hips, was shorter than normal and her socks were also thigh highs like Naomi's but white.

"The pale one on the other side of Ino is Sai and Ino's also one of his fan girls. He's an artist." Naruto continued pointing to a deathly pale boy with short black hair and black eyes while adding in her ear. "And I think he's gay the way he dresses outside of school, plus he acts funny." Naomi blinked in confusion and Naruto kept on with introductions "That's Lee, he's another one of us sporty people but he's on track and he's also in charge of the martial arts club." Naruto pointed to a boy with a bowl cut huge eyebrows, and black eyes. Naomi could tell he was muscular the way his shirt (no jacket) fit on him. "And she's Tenten, real tomboy, does most girl sports. She's also in the martial arts club." Naruto pointed to a girl with brown hair in two braids and brown eyes, she also wore pants instead of a skirt and a red tie.

Naomi nodded, processing all that new information she recognized most of them in her classes earlier. She had English with the preps and Lee, History with Shino and Neji Tenten, Chemistry with Kiba, Tenten, and Choji. "So, you got a bit of everything in this group. you got jocks, emos, goths, nerds, preps, tomboys, shy people, normal people, artists, and slackers." She stated looking around the table.

"Yeah pretty much." Shikamaru stated.

"So who are you?" Sai asked.

"Oh, Naomi. Just moved here." She introduced.

"Lazy, sarcastic, stubborn, with multiple personalities it seems." Shikamaru analyzed.

"Ah, so you're already friends then?" Kiba stated.

"I guess." Was their reply.

As the lunch hour rolled by they all got to know Naomi and she got to know them (with exception of the silent ones). when it came close to the bell to ring Naomi made a move to get up and throw her trash away but Naruto offered to do it for her.

"Um thanks Naruto." she stated surprised as he grabbed all her trash to throw it away for her.

"No problem." He stated grinning and left with the table's trash (everyone else piled theirs on as well).

Without Naruto there to break the ice it got kind of awkwardly silent. No one was really sure what to say. " Naomi was it?" Came Ino's voice; breaking the silence. Naomi looked over at Ino and Sakura to find them glaring at her. "Just a heads up. Sasuke and Sai belong to us. Stay away from them and we won't have a problem." She stated and Naomi raised an eyebrow.

"Are you serious?" She asked and turned to Sasuke. "Is she serious?" she repeated.

"Look, just because you're the new girl and because you're pretty doesn't mean you can do what you want. I have no problem with you yet and would like to be friends with you too as long as you remember you can't be in a relationship with Sai or Sasuke." She explained.

"Relax, I don't want your men." She responded, rolling her eyes.

"Just keep that in mind." They pressed.

"Yeah yeah." She replied uninterestedly and yawning out of boredom.

"I'm serious!" They snapped now insulted. The bell rang and Naomi got up.

"Well I'd love to stay and chat but you're a total bitch." Naomi stated walking away as a series of laughter and a round of oooo rang from the table.

Naomi headed to her next class and found her way to her Algebra 2 class. Her teacher was a big guy with black hair, side burns, and a cig in his mouth. When the class filled up he had her introduce herself again and she went and took her seat next to Hinata and Kiba with Sai in front of her and Gaara behind her.

"Hey guys." She stated awkwardly.

"Hey." Hinata and Sai greeted (a glare was her greeting from the friendly red head).

"Dude, that was great at lunch. You left Ino speechless. Few people actually call her a bitch to her face." Kiba stated grinning.

"Yeah well I don't like people telling me what to do." She stated with a shrug.

"They're always like that. Just show them you have no interest in me or Sasuke in that way like you said and they'll leave you alone. They're very territorial and paranoid." Sai explained. "They're really not all that bad though. Once you get to know them." He added.

"I'll keep that in mind." She replied.

"Still, it was funny." Kiba stated laughing.

Class began and Naomi groaned to herself. Math was her worst subject; she was horrible in it. In addition to her teacher coming over to give her everything she needed she must've called him back over for help every ten minutes.

When the class was over she quickly escaped and hurried away to her fifth hour. Her fifth hour was photography. Her teacher, she saw for this class was a women. She had black hair and red eyes. Once again Naomi had to introduce herself and then her teacher assigned her a seat after giving her what she needed for the class. The seat she was a signed was next to Neji and behind Sasuke. As she took her seat behind him she noticed Sakura and Ino glaring at her, she also spotted Lee in this class. He was on her other side so she talked to him.

"Good job pissing off the fan girls." Sasuke stated smirking as the bell rang and everyone went to their last class.

"It wasn't that big of a deal, I just called her a bitch." Naomi muttered as she headed out of the classroom.

"Well you're one of the few who actually call her that to her face." Neji stated; hearing her and walking along beside her.

"I hope Sai is right when he said they're not that bad once you get to know them."

"He is. They're a little clingy but alright."

"Ha, so what class do you have next?"

"Art."

"Sweet me too."

And with that said Neji and Naomi both walked to class together, talking a little bit. When Naomi entered the art classroom she found a red headed male teacher with brown eyes. Once again she was forced to introduce herself (though he settled for just her name) and she looked around for a seat. The class sat at large round tables and as she looked around for which table to sit at she spotted Naruto flagging her down with a grin. She went over to that table which had Naruto, Neji, Choji, and Gaara. Naruto quickly made room for her and sat her once again between himself and Mr. brooding evil death glare.

"Ha, I heard what you said at lunch, Ino went ballistic, he-he they'll learn to like you." Naruto stated grinning.

"Your bluntness should be entertaining at the very least." Neji stated.

"Heh, you'll learn I'm great with being a smartass too pretty boy." She teased and Naruto snickered with Choji.

"Pretty boy?"

"Don't get me wrong, I like your hair. It looks good on you but at first I thought you were a chick from the back." She explained with a grin.

"Nice." Neji muttered sarcastically and looking insulted.

As the class began they were told to get to work on their drawings and Naomi was told to start drawling a picture using shading and dimensions. She set to work and began to draw a scene of a figure emerging from a creepy looking forest with wolves beside the figure.

At one point she paused to look at the others. Choji was drawing a pretty good picture of an assortment of foods; almost like a feast. Neji was drawing a nature scene of a forest, waterfall, animals, and birds, lots of birds, Naruto was doing a good attempt at trying to draw a fighting scene but right now it kind of looked like he was either not trying hard or was a little below average with drawing skills.

Naomi turned to peek at Gaara's next and saw he was drawling an excellent picture of Dracula's castle, complete with the impaled enemies and creepy atmosphere. Though she discovered none of them; including herself were nowhere near as good as Sai. His art work was hung up all over the classroom and apparently he was in the highest art class offered (and one of the teacher's favorite students).

"You're really good." Naomi commented watching Gaara draw.

He glared and moved so he was resting on the table, arm blocking his picture from her view and resting his head on his arm while he drew; looking away from her. Naomi blinked in confusion and turned back to her work slightly upset.

"Don't worry, he's always like that at first. Takes him some time to warm up to you and come out of his shell. he is interested about you though. he told me last hour." Naruto whispered to her, catching onto her being upset.

"Really?"

"Mhm, wanted to know more about you and stuff. Plus- " Naruto stopped talking when he saw Gaara shoot him a cold glare over his arm; clearly hearing their hushed conversation and wanting him to shut up. "Uh never mind." Naruto finished; quickly getting back to work.

When the bell rang they all got up and made their way to the parking lot. "What were you saying earlier?" Naomi asked Naruto curiously as he walked with her to her car. She noticed Sasuke, Gaara, and Shikamaru waiting nearby, she assumed for Naruto.

"Huh?" Naruto asked confused.

"Gaara, at the art table." She explained muttering "And I thought I had a bad memory." under her breath. After just one day she was already learning that not all the lights were on upstairs for Naruto.

"Oh! Um, well don't tell him I told you." Naruto started.

"Dobe! Let's go!" Sasuke called to him impatiently.

'I'm coming teme!" Naruto yelled back. "We have stuff the four of us do after school." He explained.

"Ok then." She stated still waiting.

"Anyway, promise not to say?"

"Promise."

"Alright, he had said-

"Naruto!!"

"I'm coming damn it!!!!" Naruto yelled at him again. "He said you were hot. I got to go! meet me here in the morning!" Naruto rushed out in a quick breath before running off to the others.

Naomi blinked as she watched them all go; staring at Gaara who was ignoring her and talking to Naruto. She looked down at the ground grinning and turned to her car, getting ready to go home. As she did that she missed the quick, non-glaring, glance the red head shot at her as he rounded the corner with the others. She got into her car and drove home.

When Naomi got home she took care of her dogs and relaxed in her room until dinner. Over dinner she told her parents about her day and in turn her older sister Megumi; who was a college student told them all about hers. both of them were already making friends and both found it slightly ironic that they were accepted into groups where one of them was related to one in the other group. Apparently Megumi was in classes and in a (much smaller) group of friends with Sasuke's older brother.
