Author notes: I had to re-post this because of something. So anyway, this is one of my own stories, not one of the stories that I co-write with my cousin, but we share this pen name, so yeah, my story is here. Oh yeah, and Sakura is not the sweet, kind Sakura you know in this story. She's a snob, like Ino, just to let you know.

Summary: Serenity, a typical 14-year-old student meets Sasuke. He joins the group. Little does she know that he likes her. Her adventure with her bother & friends start now (not really, it starts later on in the story). Parings: Serenity x Sasuke, Naruto x Hinata, and Tenten x Neji

Disclaimer: I don't own NARUTO!

It was 7 in the morning. The time for Serenity to get up, get ready for school (Hope Middle School F.Y.I.), and go to school.

"Serenity, come on! The car doesn't wait for no one!" yelled her brother Adam at the top of his lungs. He was 14 but was turning 15 on Saturday. He had short brown hair with red highlights and brown eyes. He wore his school uniform, which was the same thing he wore at Hope Middle. He now went to Hope High School, which was right next door to Hope Middle.

"Coming!" replied Serenity. Serenity was a 14-year-old girl with dark brown-black hair that stopped at the middle of her back and had brown eyes. She was wearing her school uniform; a Royal Blue short-sleeved polo shirt with white capris and her sneakers.

"Come on, get in the car, I'm in a hurry to get to work kids," their father said.

At school…

"Hey Serenity. What's up?" said one of her best friends, Naruto. Naruto was a blond-haired boy with blue eyes and was very talkative. He wore the boy uniform; a Royal Blue short-sleeved polo shirt with black pants.

"Hi. And oh, you know, same old, same old," she replied.

"It's a new school year. And guess what! There's a new student," said Hinata, another one of her friends. She had short blue hair and very light pale violet eyes. She wore a Royal Blue short-sleeved polo shirt with a white knee-length skirt, another choice for the girls' uniform.

"Really? Well anyway, I got to get to my locker, see you guys in homeroom," Serenity said going off to her locker.

In the classroom…

"Hey, why is there a huge crowd of people around that one table?" asked Naruto.

"It's probably just Ino or Sakura gossiping about a hot guy in a band that almost everyone in the girl population in the school would want to know about. Every girl except me, Hinata, and Tenten," replied Serenity.

"Yeah. It probably is."

The teacher, who name was Kakashi Hatake, walked into his class and stop right in front of the big crowd of girls.

"Go to your seats girls," he said.

They went as they were told, leaving Ino and Sakura at their table with 2 other people.

"Okay class, before you guys can chat away again, I want to introduce to you a new student. Please come in," he said while motioning to the door.

In walked a raven-haired boy with dark onyx eyes wearing the school uniform. Almost every girl stared at him with hearts in their eyes, every girl except Serenity and Hinata. They were reading a letter from Sora, a girl in Hope High that was right next to Hope Middle. Apparently, the letter told them about her vacation over the summer. They quietly finished it just in time to hear Kakashi speak again.

"Please introduce yourself."

"My name is Sasuke Uchiha," said the raven-haired boy.

"Would you like to say anything else?"

"No."

"Okay then, why don't you go sit in the empty seat at Serenity's table. Serenity, please stand up

for Sasuke."

Hearing her name, she stood up, earning herself glares from the other girls. She didn't mind them. She got them all the time when a guy that the other girls thought was hot looked like he liked her. She looked up at Sasuke while thinking to herself, 'Wow. He's hot, but who cares, he's probably going to get a girlfriend and I don't care at all. I mean, look at all the stuff I do, I don't have time for a boyfriend.' Then she sat back down.

Sasuke noticed the brown-black-haired girl stand up. 'She's hot. She probably has a boyfriend though.' He walked to the table and took a seat in the empty seat right next to her.

"Okay people, you may chit-chat again before the started of your other classes," said Kakashi.

Right away, all of the girls in the class came up to Sasuke saying phases like:

"Would you go out with me?" and "Be my boyfriend!" and "I love you!"

Serenity, Hinata, and Naruto just ignored them and started talking, while Sasuke kept on saying,

"Shut up." and "Go away."

"Looks like he's having fun," said Naruto sarcastically.

"You think?" answered Hinata.

"Oh well, who cares right now. So, we are going to meet for lunch at the tree with the others right?" Serenity said.

"Of course! Going through a whole week of school without knowing what the others did would be bad," replied Hinata.

At lunch…

Serenity, Hinata, and Naruto went over to a huge maple tree in the courtyard and sat down with their other friends, Neji, Tenten, and Lee, (who was in the tree holding a squirrel in his hand) to have lunch. Neji and Hinata were cousins. He had long brown hair and the same very light pale violet eyes as his cousin. Tenten was his girlfriend. She always had her hair up in 2 buns. Lee, well he has bushy eyebrows, does that count?

"Hey Serenity! Did you meet the new kid?" asked Tenten.

"Yeah, we meet him in homeroom and his locker's right next to mine. Do you know how many glares I'm getting today?" answered Serenity.

"Nope, but probably a lot?"

"You got that right."

"Hey you got gym this year right?" asked Lee.

"No, I don't. I have club meetings on the times I have gym. Say hi to Gai for me will you?" responded Serenity.

"Righty-o."

"Don't say that," said Neji.

Ino and Sakura walked over with their group of girly-girls following.

"Don't you dare touch my Sasuke!" they both said in unison to Serenity.

"Last I checked, he didn't like any of you girly-girls and he's single. It won't be my fault if he likes me. And I remember last year when you both tried to sweet talk me into getting you both a date with my older brother Adam, or as we call him, Ace. He thought both of you girls were stupid too. And anyway, you girls put on WAY too much make-up, that you'd make him and Neji barf," she replied.

"Nice one," said Naruto who was busy eating noodles.

"Whatever you bitch! Just stay away from him!" they said and went off to another place.

"They sweet talked you! I, Tenten Chan, can not believe that, and I can't believe that they just called you a bitch," said Tenten.

"Hey, it's not my fault. I even think that they are both bitches that wears too much make-up. Am I right?" answered Serenity.

"Sorry to interrupt, but can I sit with you guys?" asked Sasuke. "I can't bear to sit with those loony girls over there all over me."

"Sure, why not. And why don't you join the group?" said Lee after in jumped down from the tree.

"Um, sure I guess."

"Great! I'm Rock Lee, but they all call me Lee. Okay this is Tenten, Neji, Hinata, Naruto, and you already met Serenity."

Everyone waved to him and said "Hi."

"Oh, look at the time guys! I got to go to my graphic club meeting at the computer room. Everyone else is probably there working on new graphics. See you guys later! Oh, and nice to met you Sasuke, maybe I can know you a little bit more later, 'k?"

"Sure. Bye."

At science…

"To start of the new school year, I'm going gave you guys a project to work on in pairs. The pairs are as follows: Naruto & Hinata, Joe & Ino, Hank & Taylor, Sakura & Tracy, Molly & Ken, Jane & Jeff, Kelly & Nat, Dan & Shelly, Bill & Erica, William & Renee, and Serenity & Sasuke. The project is up to you. It will be due at the end of this month. Go and start working," said their science teacher Hannah.

'All great, glares again.'

But at least you got Sasuke who's over there all to yourself.

'Who are you and WHAT!'

I'm the inner you, or as I call myself, Inner Serenity.

'Okay, whatever! Go away!'

"Ok, what do you what to do for the project?" Sasuke asked.

"Why don't we do a plant cell poster? It's easy to do. My brother did it last year," answered Serenity.

"Sure why not."

And they spent the rest of the period researching and taking notes on the plant cell. Little did Serenity know, Sasuke kept glancing at her every 3-5 minutes.

After school…

"Hey guys. Aces' B-day is on Saturday. We're having a party. Wanna come?" asked Serenity.

Sasuke, who had been informed about her older bro, said sure and so did the others.

"Cool! Come to my place at 3' on Saturday, it'll be for about 5 hours. It'll be so fun!"

Everyone else but Sasuke agreed since they have been to their parties before. It was at Serenitys' party last year when Neji had been dared by Serenity herself to confess his feelings for Tenten to her in front for everyone in the room. After that, they started dating.

"So, what are we going to do? I mean, do we have to play truth or dare again?" asked Tenten.

"You'll see," answered Serenity in a sly voice and off she went to a red car that was being driven by her mom. She entered the back of the car while her older bother, Adam, enter in the front into the other empty front seat.

Author Notes: Ha! You are probably wondering what is going to go on at the party and what else will be in the 2nd chapter. Well I'm not telling right now. Please review.
