A-CAT-suki: Chapter One

Alex P.O.V

'Just a few more questions Alex. Come on, you can do this.'

Yawning, I quickly rubbed my eyes and mentally slapped myself to wake up. Today's final exam is the very last of my senior year. The last one before high school ends forever, thank Jashin. Not wanting to get caught for "cheating", I quickly glanced at my two friends from the corner of my eye, through my red hair. Cassandra, my brunette friend was hunched over her Philosophy exam, glasses slowly sliding down her face before they were hastily pushed back up. She was scribbling away on her paper like there was no tomorrow.

Britney was on my other side, a little more relaxed than Cassie was, but was concentrating hard on her exam, not even bothering to sweep her dark bangs away from her face. Both of my friends were excellent students academically, but as for me, I found it almost impossible to concentrate on subjects that I don't truly enjoy. This was so obvious while we were "studying" for this exam. While the other two crammed information into their brains, I zoned out so often or got distracted by reading other books that I had to stay up late last night to look over my notes one last time. Fortunately, after years of practice, I had perfected the "bullshit-no jutsu", the art of being able to bullshit your way through most (but not all) tests with limited knowledge.

"10 minutes left."

The teacher's voice cut through the silent room, startling me from my thoughts.

'Shit.'

I shot a glare down at my exam and the three unanswered questions that stared back up at me. Switching my grasp on my pencil from randomly twirling it to a writing position, I quickly thought of my answers and began to scribble them down. By the time 10 minutes had passed, I had just completed my exam and felt a mountain of tension just roll off my shoulders. 'Done. We're finally done.'

A grin appeared on my face as I saw Cassie and Brit's figures relax as well. When the bell rang through the school to signal the end of the exams, we joined our other graduating classmates in the halls, cheering and tossing papers up in the air without a care in the world. I grabbed my bag from my gross, green coloured locker and slammed it shut. 'Never going to have to see that fugly thing again!'

"WE SURVIVED!"

Cassie ran up behind me and glomped me tightly. Britney quickly joined us in the crowded hallway. "You guys ready to leave this place forever?"

"Hell yes! Let's get the fuck out of here!" Cassie practically yelled in excitement.

"Come on guys, it's sleepover time!" Grabbing their arms I pulled them towards the doors towards my van, mentally preparing myself for a night of Naruto Shippuden and sugar.


Okay, so I'm really new at this and I'm not quite sure what I'm doing, but I thought I'd give it a try. Basically I thought I'd start out with one of the "Akatsuki become kittens and are thrown into our world" stories, but with a twist. I'm not sure what the pairings will be other than ItachixAlex.

Obviously I don't own Naruto, otherwise I wouldn't be suffering through high school right now.
