Needn't to say, Naruto was always the happy little fox. No one saw anything wrong with him, or at least the didn't care enough to care. A smile, was all that shielded Naruto from unwanted pain and deceit. But what happens when someone finally sees through the flawlessly fake smile?
Sasuke is the aloof rich boy that just seemed oh so perfect. He seems to care about no one and only focuses on school. The perfect student, son, and supposed human. Everyone only saw his money and looks, but never him. Or so it was.
"Where has my heart gone?" murmured the stoic raven. "I'm tall, pale, smart, and obedient. But, that doesn't matter."
He stared blankly to the board, supposedly paying attention, when the teacher called everyone's attention.
"Listen up class!" He called out loudly so everyone could hear. Everyone stopped to see what the usually quiet teacher had to say. He was tall, had white lopsided hair, lazy eyes, and an expression so blank, that it seems that he had on a mask. Not only did they look because he was loud, but he had on a smile!
"We have two new students and a new counselor!" His eyes twinkled with enjoyment as he looked at the doorway to signal entrance. They lined up in front of the class and smiled. "Introduce yourselves please. And please tell us about yourselves, not just your names."
"Hello, I'm Iruka and I will be your new counselor," His smile never faltering. He was only an inch shorter than Kakashi, and almost the complete opposite. He had a dark tan, dark brown hair held up in a ponytail, and a very happy aura about him. The only thing that actually made him truly unique and raised some questions was a very large scar crossing over his face. But, to him, it truly didn't matter. "I am very happy to meet you all. I am an adoptive father, and so you all will be able to trust me, I won't tell you who he is, but I will tell you all that I am gay." His smile not faltering once.
Everyone cracked open a smile to his honesty and nodded in approval. A low murmur started and quickly quieted down while focusing their attention to the next person.
"Ohayoo! My name is Sakura Haruno and I look forward to meeting all of you," she stated humbly with a small smile also gracing her face. She was slightly tall, but still shorter than Iruka. Her short skirt showing off her long legs and her uniform showing off her petite figure caught all eyes. But, what everyone can easily find her from is her bright pink hair. "Not much you need to know about me, I'm aspiring to be a doctor and yes, this is my natural hair color."
Most people just gaped at finding out that her hair is natural, but from what they see so far, she is a nice person. Everyone turned their attention to where the third person should have been, but found that spot empty. Kakashi sent a questioning look at Iruka, and Iruka looked out the door. He left the class only to come back a moment to take Sakura with him. And there was silence.
"Naruto! Come in here now!" yelled Sakura which made the class slightly jump at her voice.
"But Sakura-chaaaaan!" bellowed a loud and rambunctious voice.
"Naruto, you don't want to keep the class waiting," came a calm voice that could easily be distinguished as Iruka's.
"But-but-"
"God damn it Naruto!" yelled Sakura.
Next thing anyone knows, they see a human body flying in through the door and slamming into the wall. Everyone jumped, all except Sasuke who just kept looking with a slightly dumbfounded, then quickly reverted to his usual stoic expression. Everyone's head turned to where the figure had landed, which was behind the teacher's desk, and wondered if he had survived. Sakura and Iruka came back in and closed the door. Kakashi went to go see what had happened to the flying figure, and so did some other students, but when they looked, no one was there.
Sasuke was wide eyed for a moment and when he turned around, he saw someone sitting next to him, with his head down and a hoodie covering his head. 'How did I not see him?!' Thought the raven after a moment.
He turned back around only to see a raging Sakura coming towards him. 'Please not another fan girl.' He thought for a second. She came beside his desk and grabbed the person who was sitting next to him.
"Excuse him," she said in a sweet and innocent voice directed towards Sasuke, with her eyes closed and a grin spread across her face before yanking the boy out of the seat. The boy struggled while being dragged across the classroom to the front, all while his hoodie is het to reveal his face. Once at the front, she pulled him up, stood him straight, and faced toward him. "Now," she stated before yanking down his hoodie and stepping out of his way.
No one even saw him before he was behind Iruka. He grabbed him and pushed him forward, and held him so he would not move. "Naruto…"
The boy kept his head down, so no one saw his face at the moment. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki," he said in a low and quiet voice that was barely audible. Sakura punched him in the arm and winced.
"Lift your face and tell them the right way, idiot," stated Sakura in a supportive yet angered tone.
He lifted his head so everyone could see his face, smiled, and said, "My name is Naruto Uzumaki." Everyone was slightly shocked to see what they saw before them. Bright golden yellow hair, dark tan skin, deep bright blue eyes, and a smile so pure that they could not stop from smiling, and three whisker like scars that ran down his cheeks all adorned his face. He was the tallest of the three, but from his baggy uniform no one could tell his size. He started to blush from all the staring and continued, "Even though I'm in all advanced classes, I'm an idiot." He faded out at the end and slowly drifted his face back down.
"Naruto! Don't say that! You are NOT an idiot!" yelled Sakura, "Even if you do act like it at times."
"Aren't I Sakura? Aren't I?" He asked in a voice that was only loud enough for her to hear.
'Well, this should be an interesting year,' thought Sasuke with a light smirk on his face.
"Alright, I should be going now."
"Alright, bye Iruka," stated Kakashi with a smile. He turned back to the other two, both of which had newly placed smiles, "Sakura, you sit in between Ino and Hinata. Naruto, you sit next to Sasuke."
They both looked at him confused and simultaneously said, "Who that?"
"Oh, please raise your hands." Two girls sitting in the middle of the room raised their hands, and Sakura went to sit in between them, and many boys raised their hands. "I meant Hinata, Ino, and Sasuke." All but one hand went down, and before anyone could notice, he was at his seat with his head down. And the stoic Sasuke couldn't stop from staring.
'Oh this year will definitely be interesting.'
'Please just stop staring.'
'Don't worry, Naruto.'
