Ino smiled widely at her before handing over a note. The two girls had made this a habit; notes were fun. Sakura opened it and couldn't help but sigh. She was tired of the same routine and the same things. Everyday for years, it was the same thing. Friends, school, more friends, home. Popularity did that to a person. Everyone in this school expected her to keep the routine. All of her friends did exactly what she did too; of course they enjoyed it.

Her mother and father were very traditional people, always with the 'good ol' days'. Sakura always remembered being raised to honor herself and every one around her, and people seemed to like that. But lately it was all so… boring. There were kids in this school who did not fit in yet they had a better life. Full of courage and adventure. Always something new.

She had a boyfriend who was the same as her. They both had the same kinds of family and they both had the same friends. Come to think of it, their parents had introduced them.

"Oh, great, their here." Ino groaned, looking away from the classroom door. Their only could be two people. Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha. The two trouble makers of the school, the two outcasts. They were lazy and totally insane. People say they are unstoppable at what they do. Whatever that was. Naruto had that spiky blond hair and a goofy orange tee shirt. Always with the orange. And Sasuke, with his shaggy black hair and dark blue button down shirt, looked…

Do not say amazing! Do not, do not, do not!

Amazing. Naruto and him took the first row of seats, talking to the teacher like he was their friend. Knowing them, it was a friend. Teacher or not, people could come to enjoy someone with some kind of new, hot topic.

"They aren't bothering anyone." Sakura leaned over in her chair, trying to keep her eyes on the dynamic duo. They were totally relaxed and just hanging out. No pressure about school, no nothing.

"They bother everyone, Sakura. That's why no one likes them."

I do, she thought with a blush. Was this what she wanted more of? To start acting like these two boys? The truth was, she was fixated on them, but was it because of their attitude?

She doubted that.

Sasuke swiveled his head around to see her, eyes cold and black. He knew she was watching him, he was telling her that by looking at her. Sakura looked down sharply. Maybe he'd look away.

Nope. There he was, still watching her. He blew her a kiss with a smirk and turned back in his seat. He was mocking her, and that just made her want to disappear. He was just trying to mess with her. Trying and succeeding.

A half hour later the bell rang. She couldn't have gotten out of their fast enough. Ino and her made their way to their lockers, neatly setting the books inside. "I can't believe those idiots came to class late, again. How is it they pass the year?"

"Come on, I'm sure they ace most of the tests. Mr. Reiner did say if we aced the tests we'd pass no matter what."

Ino scoffed and flipped her blond hair out of her way. "Yeah, well, I'm not buying it. I think they change their grades without the teachers knowing. It wouldn't be something knew anyways, they do worse than that on a regular basis."

"Where do you come up with this stuff?"

"I have friends who know Sasuke's parents. I hear he's majorly into drugs and weird occult stuff." Sakura frowned. She had never heard those rumors. Were they true? "And on top of that, last year he stole a car. Face it, Naruto and him are just a bad couple to even be near."

"I guess." She wanted to go ask him though. Did he really do all of that? He never wore anything short sleeved at school, maybe it was to hide the injection marks of drugs? And he had been arrested for stealing a car last year, but maybe it was all a misunderstanding. And the occult? There is no way.

"How is my favorite girl today?" The deep voice made her cringe. Kiba always knew where to find her. He wrapped a arm around her waist, bringing her in close.

"Fine." Sakura looked down, holding the strap of her backpack closer. "I really need to get home. My parents and I are going on a few errands today."

"Ill drive you." Kiba pulled her toward the parking lot. Everyone was leaving and heading home, but Kiba would be wanting to go with her. He was clingy.

Sakura pulled away from him, dropping her backpack on the ground. She groaned, bending down to retrieve what was spilt. "Go ahead and start the car, Ill be over as soon as I get all of this picked up."

XXXXXXXX

Sasuke and Naruto got on their motor bikes. They sat there for several minutes, letting the engines get started up. "Why don't we go to my place today?"

"Yeah, we can do that." Sasuke shrugged. His dad would be wanting him home, but he had no plans to oblige to that. "Lets stop by the pizza shop to get a few things, then we'll head over there."

"So what's up with you and teasing the chick back there in the class. Don't think I didn't see that." The blond grinned with mischief.

Sasuke frowned. "Harmless joke. She was starring, so I made her look away. Nothing was 'up'."

"Liar. I saw the way she was looking at you."

"She's part of the popular crowed. Someone who is sheltered and as annoying as a fish. Why should I bother making her happy." The raven shrugged. "Not my type. And knowing us, she was starring out of loathing. Not want."

The Singler prep school was one he didn't care for. Everyone here was stuck up and got on his nerves. The only reason he and Naruto don't get kicked out is because Sasuke's father was paying twice as much as the others and often gave a humble amount of money to the school each year for donations. "Cut the shit, Uzumaki, let's go before the afternoon traffic rush."

"Hellz yeah." The blond grinned from ear to ear, fastening his bikers helmet over his head. The only thing noticeable about him was the blue eyes now. Sasuke did the same, speeding toward the exit. The parking lot was huge, full of rows upon rows of cars. They had to weave through several different area's in order to get to the entrance and exit. He glanced behind him for only a second, Naruto was stopping. Sasuke frowned and glanced in front of him.

Why would Naruto stop?

The girl in the road in front of him made his heart stop. He was going to hit her. The bike wouldn't be able to stop in time with how much speed he had gained. Shit. There were people screaming for her to get out of the way, people screaming for him to stop. Naruto had taken off his helmet and started running towards them, yelling for her to move before he collided with her.

Sakura. That was the girl who was there. He recognized her from class.

She was starring at him wide eyed, trying to move in time, but she was frozen. Sasuke cursed out loud, throwing his weight down and jerking the front of the bike away. The motor bike slipped on to the side, skidding down the asphalt; sparks flew behind him like fireworks. His shoulder dragged along the hard surface, tearing at the skin until he knew his shoulder would suffer big damage. Thank God he still had the helmet on.

XXXXXXXXX

Sakura screamed, hunching her body over in a ball. The bike was still coming at her, fast.

The impact was big, hitting her right in the side and sending her a few feet away. It felt like she was dying with how much pain was spilling through her body. The noises had died down enough that she could only hear murmurs.

"Someone call a ambulance!" Someone screamed. Did she really need one?

"Call 911!"

"Get a teacher!"

The other teens seemed at a loss as to what to do for her. She was at a loss as to what to do. The man in the helmet had tried to move, but it was all too late. She didn't even have a car and she was going to die by car accident! What irony! Everything was black and unseen. She was blind, unable to see the people around her. At least her hearing was still there; that meant she wasn't dead, yet.

"Stay with me, Sakura." The voice was unknown to her, a stranger she had not made a habit to talk to. "Don't give up! Stay with me!"

That voice was urging her back to the present, trying to get her back up to her feet. There were hands on her, pressing down to give her a jump start or something. CPR?

"Don't give up on me, damn it!" The voice faded until it was only soft rasps. "Stay with me!"

Who did that voice belong too?
