A/N: Just a little thing to help me (slowly) bleed off my writer's block. We'll see.

Its a little awkward, but I think I like the way this turned out. Who knows, I might go back and edit it again. -sigh-...my creative writing skills are drying up.

...Off to go write my long-chaptered stories...!

Ha, yeah right.

Disclaimer: Uhm, exsqueez me, but WHY would you ever think I would own Naruto? Like, really?

The Detour

There are a few signs to let you know that you hate your life.

One of them, Sakura Haruno mused as she sat in a corner, trying to ignore the three idiots that were bickering over absolutely nothing (and, really, they'd only been in the compartment for twenty minutes, tops) was that you were regretting your decision to wake up late today.

Normally she didn't wake up late, and take the subway to school, but she'd been up late last night, trying to finish a big project due the next day.

Unfortunately for her, that landed her in a compartment with the three most annoying people in the world. Two brooding, black-haired guys and a hyperactive blond guy. Just what she needed to start off her fantastic day…not.

If she'd thought it'd do her situation any good, she would've clapped her hands over her ears.

"-you're such a teme-"

"Hnn."

"-stole my-"

'-I'm painting!"

"-it, Sai-"

"Dobe."

"-YOU CALL ME, TE-"

She put her head in her lap, praying to Kami that the trip would soon be over. All she wanted to do was shave ten minutes off her commute, and she got this! Was a little more sleep too much to ask???? If so, she would always be a half hour early to everything from now on!

Sakura sighed, feeling her emotions well up inside me. She was never going to wake up late ever again, if this was what would happen to her.

Hopefully they wouldn't come up and ask her to mediate their argument about…whatever they were arguing about. She didn't know. She didn't pay attention to stupid arguments.

"Hey,-you!" The blond idiot who, she'd gathered, had some sort of obsession with ramen, came over to her and shook her shoulder. "What do you think?"

She glared up at him. "First off, don't touch me. Second-I wasn't listening, you guys are annoying. Now leave. Me. Alone. Before. I. Hurt. You."

He backed away slightly, a worried expression on his face.

The guy with hair that stuck out like a cockatoo's just smirked, shaking his head. "Girls," He observed.

She hissed at him, seething. "Egotistical bastard." With that, she swung to her feet, heading for the exit door. She was still three blocks away from her school, but she could deal.

As she walked out the door, she could hear the blond comment, "What'd we do?...Doesn't she go to our school? Why's she getting off so early?"

Yes, Sakura mused. Life could be hated when idiots such as those were alive.
