Chapter One: Breaking Free
Monday
"Ohayo sensei!" some girls giggled as they walked pass Kakashi-sensei, a Social Studies teacher of Senju Academy.
Senju Academy is school known for its excellent academic system, lavish school style, music concerts, drama, theatre production, and not to mention art. Top students that came from rich and important family attended, after all it was a school for the rich.
He put down the book he was reading and waved at the girls. They squealed in delight. Kakashi, a man with silver hair, stepped into a classroom.
"You're early for once." A bubble gum hair teen said.
He chose to ignore her comment. He walked behind a rectangular desk, most likely the teachers desk and stared at the students.
"Stand." The bubble hair girl said as she stood up. The students also got up. She bowed and the students behind her bowed a second later.
"Ohayo sensei." They said.
"Ohayo." He responded back.
The students sat back down.
"I've got a few announcements." He told them. He sat on the desk and stared at his class. He pulled out a pen from his gray shirt pocket and grabbed the clipboard that was beside him. "But first, roll call." He looked down at the paper on the clipboard.
"Aburame Shino."
A boy with chocolate brown hair raised his hand. Shino is the only child of two Botany professors who teaches at the University of Konoha.
"Asanuma Erika."
"Hai, Kakashi-sensei." A young girl with curly brown hair said as she stared seductively at the teacher.
Ericka is the only daughter of the top fashion designer, who live in Paris. She recently moved to Japan from Paris, to get in touch with her father's culture, who was Japanese.
"Akimichi Choji." He called out.
A chubby boy raised his hand. "Here!"
Choji, winner of the Konoha School cook off for three years straight, was a student of 1-A, Kakashi class. His father is one of the top chefs in Konoha and he's trying to follow in his father's legacy.
"Fuji Suka." He yawned.
"Please do know I can have you removed from this school." The boy, Fuji said. Fuji is the son of the principal, who took the position after the principal of the school past away 12 years ago.
Kakashi rolled his eyes. "Sure." He sang. "Haruno Sakura."
"Hai sensei." The bubble gum teen said. Sakura, class president, is known for her boisterous character and pink long hair. She's top 3 in the entire school. She's the only daughter of two famous theatre directors. She's also a well-known blogger for her blog, Life.
"Hyuga Hinata."
"Hai, Hai." The lavender eye girl said as she stared at the teacher, annoyed. Kakashi smiled at her. She groaned. Hinata, well known for her unique eyes and feisty character, is the eldest daughter of Hyuga Hiashi and Hikari, most famous lawyers in Konoha. She is top 2nd in the school and is aiming to break apart from her family's tradition of lawyers and become a brain surgeon.
"Inuzuka Kiba." He called out.
"Here!" Kiba, the boy grinned, tipped his chair over. Kiba is a wild character of Kakashi's class. He is the only son of the Inuzuka's and is known for being the youngest person to get his pilot license in Konoha.
"Nara Shikamaru!" Kakashi shouted as he threw a piece of chalk at the boy's head.
He did not move. Shikamaru, is known for being lazy. Need I say more?
"Yamanka Ino."
"HAI!" a girl, Ino, giggled.
Ino clasp her hands together. She is known for her unique fashion style, which constantly causes her and Erika to bump heads with one another. Ino is known for her lavish parties and amazing presents.
"Uchiha Sasuke." Kakashi said.
"Tch." Sasuke said as he leaned on the chair. Sasuke, pretty boy, and top student in the entire school. He is the son of the Head Chief. (Obviously, I'm not going to do the whole 25 students.)
He placed the clipboard down and smiled. "I'm pretty sure half of you already know that we will have a new student-
Kakashi was interrupted by Fuji. "You mean the charity case." He chuckled.
Kakashi remained quiet. "He's not going to last long." Erika spoke. "Why should we waste our resources for somebody who's probably going to drop out." She said twisting her brown hair.
"Remember the last person that got a scholarship to this school." Suka said. "Less than three hours, he was gone."
Erika giggled.
"Ne, isn't he in prison?" Kita, a girl with long black hair, said as she turned to face Fuji, who was sitting behind her.
"No way." Erika said. "How come I didn't hear that?"
"Please settle down." Kakashi said. He sighed. He hated to admit it, but the kid probably wasn't going to last long. "He's really smart…
"That's what you said about the last one and he was dumber than a bag of bricks." Kita snarled. "Just a waste of time."
Kakashi hated this part of the job. Introducing a new kid from a scholarship and having to cover everything up on why the child didn't want to come back or some nonsense just so the school will continue to look good.
"He will be here in the next," he looked at his watch, "several minutes. Please be kind to him and treat him as your own."
"We'll try." Erika smirked.
"Sakura." Kakashi said turning towards the girl. "Can you please show him around the campus when you have a chance."
Sakura nodded her head.
Fuji Saka, the principal, God knows I be making up some of these names, eyed the blond hair boy suspiciously. "What happened to your shirt?" he asked the blond boy.
The Blond boy lowered his head. "I don't know how that happened." The boy whispered. He was quiet and didn't raised his head to look at the principal.
He looked at him with disgust. He sighed. This was the boy, who dare to sign up for a scholarship, he and the other board members decided to do, every year. The boy had blond hair that he clearly did not comb, he was tall, but Saka could not make out his face, since he kept staring at the floor. He scoffed as he turned his back on the boy.
"Follow me." He commanded.
The blond boy fastened the strap on his back as he followed behind the man.
"This is a school of importance." Saka spoke. "The school has been opened for almost 60 years and is known to produce some of the best students you see out there today." He boasted. "I, of course, attended this school and got all honors and graduated top of my class!" he beamed as he remembered his youthful days. "Please be mindful of the students and be on your best behavior." He said looking over his shoulders at the boy, who still had head lowered. The blond nodded his head. "I don't want to hear any trouble from you. And I took it you read over the notes. You cannot get into any fights, your absences should not succeed over ten days, unless you have a doctor's notes, your academic level should be up there high, that means you cannot fail a class with a D or below during your first semester. If you do, you do know you will be expelled and taken off of the program."
"Hai."
Saka straightened up. He knew in his mind this boy would not last any longer than a month. His kind didn't deserve to be here. He stopped in front of a door. "Please do not upset the other students… Notru." He said.
"Naruto." The blond whispered.
"What?"
"It's Naruto." He repeated.
'Even his name is ridiculous.' Saka thought. He knocked on the door.
Kakashi got off of the desk and walked over to the door. He opened it and bowed.
"This is Naro." Saka said.
"Naruto." The blond repeated.
Saka ignored him. He looked at Kakashi, before walking away back to his office. Kakashi stared at the boy who was staring down at the ground. He smiled meekly. "Come in and introduce yourself." He said stepping aside.
The class silence as the blond walked into the class. After a second of silence, there was a giggle. Kakashi glared at Erika, who tried to play it off. Kita turned to Suka and grinned.
"Charity case." Suka sneezed.
Kakashi glared at him. The blond had his head lowered. "Please introduce yourself." He said once more.
"Hi." The boy whispered. "I'm Uzumaki Naruto…"
"Ne, sensei. I can't hear him." Melody, a purple hair girl shouted.
"Can you speak a little louder." Kakashi told him.
The boy tightened his grip on the strap of the bag. "Hi… I'm Uzuma-
Suka made a loud yawn. Sakura was getting annoyed by the students.
"H…hi… I'm Uzumaki N… Naruto."
"He has a speech impediment too. Oh lord." Kita laughed.
"Shut up!" Hinata snapped as she turned around, glaring at Kita. Kita glared at her. "If you shut the freak up, then you can hear him. His name is Uzumaki Naruto." She told her.
"Touché." Melody laughed.
Hinata rolled her eyes.
Kakashi wanting to stop the argument that would soon take place, raised his hand to get the class's attention. "Uzumaki-san, you can sit beside Suka." he said pointing to the blue hair boy. He didn't want to sit the boy next to him, but that would be the only seat available.
Naruto, glanced up slightly, and saw Kakashi pointing at the back of the class. He lowered his head once more and strolled down the aisle of the classroom.
"What is that smell?" Erika said covering her nose.
Melody sniffed the air. "Smells like a charity case to me."
Naruto took his seat to the empty desk and placed his bag on the table. Suka shot his hand in the air.
"Yes, Suka." Kakashi said with a tint of annoyance in his voice.
"Why does he have to sit next to me? His smell is distracting me from breathing."
Naruto rested his hands on top of his lap.
"Please treat Uzumaki-san with respect. Please remain quiet for your next teacher." Kakashi said walking out of the room.
"Psst." Suka said. Naruto knew somehow the boy was trying to get his attention, he turned his head slightly to the boy. His blond bangs covered over his eyes, and stopped by his shoulders. "Just so you know, don't talk to me, don't look in my direction and know your place." Suka said.
"Yeah." Melody said turning around.
"Why don't you do yourself a favor and just get out of here while you have the chance." Megumi, a girl with a white pixie cut said.
"Good morning, class." A happy Iruka-sensei, came strolling into the class.
"Ohayo sensei." They said.
Iruka looked at the attendance sheet and nodded his head. "I heard we have a new student in the class." Iruka said. He eyes wondered as he tried to search for the new student. "Ah." he said. "What's your name?"
"It's Zoozoo Noodles." Suka said. Erika snickered.
"It's Uzumaki Naruto, sensei." Sakura said.
Iruka nodded his head. "Well it's nice to have you in our class, Uzumaki Naruto." Iruka said. Naruto had now placed his hands on the desk and shifted uncomfortably in the chair. He was staring down at the desk.
"I… it's nice to be here." He said.
Iruka smiled weakly. Every teacher, student, and staff knew that anybody who came here, if they weren't rich, weren't be accepted to kindly. He sighed mentally. Hopefully this year would change.
"I hope everyone is ready to graduate soon." Iruka smiled. The class cheered. Some high five the person sitting next to them.
"I can't wait." Kiba said throwing his head back. He stared at Hinata, who was now staring at him.
Hinata scoffed as she hit Kiba on his forehead, causing the boy to nearly fall off the chair.
"I think we should throw a graduation party." Ino grinned. "What do you think, Sakura-chan?"
Sakura said, "That'll be awesome."
"I'll start planning right away." Ino said taking out her phone.
Iruka cleared this throat. "Or maybe you can do that on YOUR time." Iruka said.
Ino laughed nervously. "Hai, sensei." She said placing the phone into her skirt pocket.
School uniform consist of a plane gray skirt and pants with a white collar shirt and yellow neck tie. However, each grade had a different color blazer/cardigan to identify them. Tenth grade wore a green blazer or cardigan, eleventh graders wore a blue color and twelfth graders wore a red color.
"Please take out your English text books." Iruka told him as he turned to write today's objective on the board.
What do I want to do after I graduate?
"Please have this, written in English, at the end of the class." Iruka said. He sat on the desk and took out his text book. "Please turn to page 50."
There was complete silence in the room, the noise that was heard, was the turning of the pages. Iruka looked up as he saw a hand being raised. "Yes, Uzumaki-san."
"I don't have a book." He replied.
Iruka had to open his ears wide enough to hear what the boy had to say. Suka scoffed.
"That's no problem. You can share with Suka." Iruka told him.
"I rather not." Suka snorted.
"And why is that? He's a fellow classmate of yours." Iruka responded.
"First of all, he smells stink, secondly, he should have had his own book. I mean you already got into the school for free, you want free books too?" Suka said.
"I'll share with him, sensei." Sasuke said.
"Ne, Sasuke-kun you're so dreamy." Erika said romantically.
"Slut." Kiba coughed.
Erika glared at him.
Sasuke slid the desk and connected it with Naruto's own.
"Thank you Sasuke." Iruka said.
Sasuke rested the book in the middle of desk two desk. He pointed to the page. "Thank you." Naruto said/whispered.
All Sasuke saw was blonde shaggy hair moving from side to side. By the way Naruto hair was so long, he wondered if the boy had ever saw his own face. "It's no problem." He looked over at the page. Sasuke wasn't one to judge or care about other people's hygiene, but he could have told that blond hadn't taken a shower for some time.
And class went on.
Sakura skipped happily towards Ino with a juice box in her hand. Ino was sitting on a stone bench in the garden, staring down at her phone. She was planning the party and everything that would be needed to make it the best graduation party ever.
"How long do you think he has?" Ino asked Sakura, who sat down beside her. "Like did he say anything when you gave him the tour?"
Sakura shrugged. "I don't know how long. I wish they would leave him alone" She spoke. "He seems quiet and friendly, I guess, but he does smell a little." She sipped on the straw.
Ino giggled. "Really?" Her eyes never left the phone screen.
Sakura nodded her head. "I mean it doesn't smell that bad, but you can still smell him." Ino crossed her legs as she pushed the phone into her pocket. "Your phone died?"
Ino nodded her head. "I forgot my charger." She watched as Hinata walked up to her. "Why are you so grumpy?" Ino laughed.
Hinata threw her bag on the floor and sat on the grass. "I'm not grumpy, just pissed. I'm tired of the way the new student-
"What did he do to you?" Ino asked. "Did he do something?" she shot up.
"No, no. I'm just a little upset that they did him like that." Hinata said crossing her arms.
"Wow, I've never seen you upset about something like that before." Sakura said.
"I'm just tired of it. Last year they did it, and the year before and the teachers don't do anything!" she threw her arms in the air.
"I understand how frustrated you are." Sakura nodded her head. "We're getting too old for that."
Ino nodded her head in agreement. "Ne, Kiba-kun, Sasuke-kun." Ino called out to the boys.
Kiba ran up to Ino. She shrieked in horror as Kiba caused her to fall back off of the bench. He climbed on top of her and rubbed against her. "I miss you so much." He said.
Ino screamed. Sakura giggled as she watched Ino cry for help.
"Bad boy." Hinata stood up. She sprayed him with a water bottle, she had gotten out of her backpack.
Kiba whimpered as he got off of Ino. She glared at him.
"Baka!" she screamed as she punched Kiba in his face.
He cried in pain.
Sasuke sat on the bench next to Sakura and stared at the flowers that adorn his view.
"Where is Choji and Shino?" asked Sakura.
"I have no idea." Sasuke shrugged. "I can't wait to go home." He said. "I'm tired."
"Shikamaru is probably sleeping underneath a tree." Ino said.
"I have no idea how he made it." Sakura replied, shaking her head.
"It's all about connections!" Ino said as she sat beside Sasuke.
"Sasuke-kun, when you sat next to Uzumaki-san, did you smell…. Him?" Ino asked.
Sasuke looked at her. "I knew he smell, but I didn't know it was that bad."
Ino giggled. "No, Sakura-chan smelt him when she was giving him a tour."
"I wasn't trying to be mean or anything." Sakura defended herself.
"I think we should be nice, for once." Hinata said as she tied Kiba to a nearby tree.
"So why don't you start now." Kiba cried as he struggled to get escape the tight ropes sinking into his skin. Hinata picked up a stick and began to poke Kiba.
"Whatever comes first." Sasuke mumbled.
"Are you going out with your family Friday?" Sakura asked him.
"Yeah, I should probably be back at one in the morning." Sasuke informed her.
"You're ungrateful. I let you stay here for three hundred a month and you have the nerve to complain." A bald headed man shouted.
"But the water has been off for a month now and the lights cuts off every night at 8pm."
"You can get the hell out." The bald man shouted at the kid.
Naruto tightened his fist as he stared at the ground. "Gomen."
The man glared at the blond. "Ungrateful brat." He spat. "Now get!"
Naruto walked out of the landlord office and walked outside. He had work in the next hour and he was in no condition to go. He pleaded with the landlord to get the water back on, but he every time he said he would, he never got to it. He could have cared less about the lights, but if he had water that would be much better. He wanted to make a good impression on the first day of his new school, however when the landlord had promised to turn on the water that Monday, he didn't, and the lights decided to stay off from 8 that Monday night to when he had to get ready to go to school. His clothes were wrinkled and mashed up, a bird decided that he would shit on his school shirt and he smelled. Not to mention, he didn't have any textbooks because the scholarship didn't cover it.
He walked up the creaky wooden stairs and walked through the dismantled hallway. Tattered wallpaper hung down off of the wall, roaches crawled through the green carpet and some of the lights flickered with every step he took.
"I'm taking my child!" he heard somebody screamed.
"Like hell you are." He heard a male voice shouted. He heard a woman scream for help.
"Get off me!"
"Come here you b-
He entered his room and closed the door behind him. He grabbed the bucket of water, he pumped from the well, and stepped into the small bathroom. He took off his clothes and wiped off the important parts, his face, armpits and private parts. He had to conserve his water.
Naruto looked at his reflection in the mirror. He pushed up his blonde bangs and stared in the mirror. He dropped his hair and ran out of the bathroom. It was almost time for work.
"Shit." He said as he tried to put on his uniform. After successfully putting on his clothes he bolted out of the door.
"You're late!"
"Gomen. Gomen. Gomen." Naruto said. "I just started a new school and it is kind of a little distance from my house and-
"It's always the same damn excuse!" Gitmo, the manager of Sunny Dale Ice Cream Shop, screamed at the blond teen. "I don't even know what I put up with you." He said as he looked down at his paper. He looked up and stared at the boy who was looking at floor. "Why are you still in here?"
Naruto fidget. "M… my paycheck." He said. He never once looked up at his manager, but he knew he was staring at him with disgust. The manager scoffed. "Y… you said I would get it Monday, which is today."
"I know what today is!" he shouted. "Besides you'll have to wait until next pay period."
"B… but I can't wait! My rent is due on Friday." Naruto pleaded.
"Don't get smart with me. If you want a job, I would suggest you shut your mouth and get to work. You're already late as it is!" Gitmo growled.
He tightened his fist. Naruto walked out of the room and closed the door behind him, quietly. He sighed as he slipped on his hat. He would try to talk to the landlord, hopefully he would be in a good mood.
"Welcome to Sunny Dale, how can help you?"
"Here you go Ma'am." Naruto said as he handed the woman a strawberry sundae.
The woman smiled, as she went to pick up the spoon, her smile vanished. "Um excuse me." She said calling Naruto back over.
"Hai?"
She picked up a long strand of blond hair.
"I'm so sorry." He said bowing. "I… I'll get you another one." Naruto said.
The woman groaned. "I already had to wait fifteen minutes for this, now I probably have to wait another fifteen minutes." She got up and grabbed her purse. "How did you even this job?" she asked. She stormed out of the building.
"Naruto!" Gitmo growled. "That's coming out of your paycheck!"
Naruto lowered his head. "Gomen."
"Come on now, there's another order." He said.
"Hai, Hai." Naruto rushed over to get the frozen yogurts, milkshake and soda. As he walked to a table of four someone spoke.
"Isn't that charity case?"
He turned his head and saw Suka there. Naruto groaned inwardly. His first day of school was not a pleasant one. Not only did he receive a new name, Charity case, his day has been filled with misfortune, with people throwing things at him, calling him smelly, and pushing around. Things were sour. He tried his best to ignore him.
He walked past the table filled with his classmates, however, someone had decided to stick out their foot causing the poor boy to fall hard on the floor, splattering the items he had on his tray. The group of teens laughed. Naruto scattered to his knees as he desperately tried to clean the floor with his hands. He felt an angry presence behind him and he gulped.
"You're fired! Get out and forget about receiving your paycheck." Gitmo said.
Naruto jumped to his feet. "But I need it!" He lowered his head as he was talked down upon.
"It's coming out of your paycheck and by how many dishes and customers you scared away, you should be the one paying money, baka! Now get." Gitmo shouted. "And you can keep the uniform.
Naruto walked out of the ice-cream parlor, with his head down. He walked down the concrete sidewalk and let his tears flow. The ice-cream shop was paying the rent, barely, and that was source of food. He didn't like the manager, however, he had a stomach full and money.
Stepping into his house, he threw made his way into his bedroom and lied there. He needed another job, quick, fast and a hurry.
He thought about it, he had already filled out some positions for some jobs, but he had no way of knowing, since he couldn't bear to keep up with his cellphone bill. And each time he went to the place, they told him they had trying calling him, but they couldn't get through to him. And the other places turned him down because of how unkempt he looked or the fact he couldn't work the time they wanted him too. He laid on the bed and watched as the lights flickered. Lights should be going off in the next hour. He needed to iron his clothes before so.
He had finished ironing his clothes just on time. The lights had went off. Naruto always thought it was the entire complex, however it was just his room that lights cut off directly at 8.
"Shit!" he cursed. "I forgot about my homework." He cried.
He made his way through the darkness and crawled in bed to think about the other options he had. He could become a drug dealer, that seemed like easy money. Or he could sell his body, that could be another source of money, or he can commit a crime and go to prison, there they'll feed him, he can take showers… and get anally rape. He shivered at the thoughts. No matter how hard he tried, those three seemed like the only options he had left… or that.
He fell into a deep sleep.
Tuesday
"Gomen, gomen." Naruto bowed. He had overslept and was late to class by 3 hours.
Orochimaru, the science teacher, stared at the boy who had interrupted his class. "And you are…"
"ZooZoo Noodles." Suka shouted out.
"Uzumaki Naruto." He mumbled.
Orochimaru eyed the boy, who stared at the floor. "Oh right, you are the new student. I take it you do understand that you cannot come to class whenever you choose." He hissed.
"Lighten up Orochimaru-sensei." Melody said. "The poor boy got fired yesterday for making such a mess."
"Oh my goodness. I didn't realize that was him in that video." Erika giggled.
"Enough." Orochimaru said. "Please don't disturb my class from now on." He said. "And you come a minute late to my class, don't come at all."
"Hai sensei." Naruto said.
"Replay." Kita giggled. She stuck out her feet as Naruto walked down the aisle.
"TIMMMMBBBBER!" Suka shouted.
The class exploded into laughter.
"Uzumaki Naruto!" Orochimaru screamed. Naruto had fell flat on his face. He got to his knees and held his nose. He felt something warm oozing out of his nose. "To the office!" he told the boy.
"Sensei!" Hinata shot up from her seat. "It wasn't his fault. It was Keita-baka."
"Yeah!" Kiba said agreeing with her.
"No it wasn't!" Keita shot back.
Naruto got up steadily and coward his head in shame.
"Ne, sensei. He's bleeding!" Sakura said as they watched the blood dropped to the floor.
Hinata ran to his side and helped him. "Tilt your head back." She told him.
"Take him to the nurse office." Orochimaru said in disgust. Hinata glared at him as she held Naruto by his forearm and led him out of the door.
Nurse Office
"So what happened?" the nurse, Tsunade, asked.
"Keita-baka tripped him." Hinata said.
Tsunade smiled. "He'll be okay. Just let him stay here for a few minutes. You can wait on him or go back to class if you would like." Tsunade said as she got up from her seat.
"Going off to drink with Kakashi-sensei?" Hinata questioned.
"You know me so well." She said as she skipped out of the nurse office, her breast jumping with every skip she made.
Hinata grinned as she sat on the chair next to Naruto's bed. He was sitting on the edge; he was looking down.
"It's okay, Uzumaki-san." She told him. She didn't like the awkward silence.
"T…thank you." He stuttered.
"It's okay." She said crossing her legs.
"You… don't have to wait for me." He whispered. "I don't want you to miss class because of me."
Hinata shrugged. "It's okay. I hate that class anyways and he's only hard on you because you're a s- She hushed.
"I understand." He sighed.
"I didn't mean anything by it." Hinata said embarrassed. She jumped off of the chair and stood in front of him. Naruto had noticed her by her small feet that stepped in front of him.
"How is your nose? I swear if that Keita-baka did anything to- she shook her balled fist furiously towards the sky. "Let me see your nose." She said.
"No, that's okay… really." Naruto said trying to put his hands in front of him.
"It can't be that bad." She said. "I just want to see if it is broken, so we can sue her for everything she has." She said trying to remove his hands away from his face.
"N… no, I'm-
"Uzumaki." Hinata said. This boy was stronger than she thought. "Fine." She said giving up. Naruto relaxed. "Sike." She said playfully as she lifted up his blond bangs. She stood there, shock. Her face had reddened. She analyzed his face. His face and jaw structure were strong, he had long eyelashes that curled up. He had dark circles around his and eye bags, signaling he hadn't slept for some time, his eyebrows were bushy and hair, it had even made its way into a unibrow, and even had a dirt stain on the side of his cheek, however, in her seventeen years on earth, has she ever seen such beautiful eyes. She was completely shock. She'd been told many times that her eyes, out of the whole Hyuga clan, was most mesmerizing and unique. She had seen blue so many times, but this blue, was truly amazing. She felt as if she could have taken a swim in his eyes. His eyes were a turquoise blue.
"S…sorry." She stuttered. She dropped his bangs and sat on the chair.
Naruto covered his face. He was so embarrassed. He knew he wasn't' good lucking, but Hinata was a goddess. Her eyes were truly amazing, she had no pupil! He had never seen anything like that before, but he knew she wasn't blind. Her eyes a lavender color with tint of light pink made her eyes sparkled. Her nose was so cute and small and her lips were pouted and pink.
There was an awkward silence.
"You have really pretty eyes." Hinata told him. His back hunched over. "Are you okay?" Hinata asked him.
"Y… yes." He said. "Just a little weary of going back to class." He whispered.
Hinata tightened her fist. She walked to him and rested her petite hands on his broad shoulders. Naruto was startled. "Don't worry, I'll protect you." She told him. She had determination in her eyes. Naruto looked up and stared at her, of course, his bangs were dangling over his eyes. She lifted up his bangs once more, he saw the seriousness in her eyes. "Okay?" she smiled. Naruto nodded his head. She grinned. "By the way, I'm Hyuga Hinata."
Naruto gulped. "Arigato Hyuga-san."
Hinata giggled, her hand still holding up his bangs. "Call me Hinata, Naruto-kun."
Naruto felt his heart skip a beat. This was the first time in his life, he had ever been close to a girl, a girl, a PRETTY girl, was touching him and promising to me protect him. He looked down. Hinata giggled at his shy antics.
"Let's go back to class." She said as she grabbed him by the hand.
"Kiba-baka, move!' Hinata said as she pushed the boy out of his chair. Kiba fell, hard, to the floor. The two, Naruto and Hinata, had made it time for the next class, Social Studies, however, Kakashi being Kakashi, decided to take a stroll on the path of life—again.
Kiba got up and balled his fist. "What was that for?"
"Naruto-kun is going to sit here for now on." She told him, her hand on her hips.
"What?" Kiba was baffled.
"Naruto-kun. Is. Going. To. Sit. Here. Baka!" she told him.
"Who is Na- he stopped as he gazed at the boy who was standing behind Hinata, with his head lowered.
"But this!"
Hinata glared at him. "You can sit next to Suka-baka-baka!" Hinata told him. She pointed at the blue hair boy who had fallen asleep.
Kiba grumbled as he grabbed his backpack and walked to the seat Naruto was assigned too.
"Um… H… Hinata-chan, that's okay… really." Naruto said. He felt awkward because he knew everyone was staring at him.
"Nonsense. Sit. Sit." She told him as she took her seat behind him.
He sat down and placed his backpack on the side of his desk.
Ino looked at Sakura, who had turned to look at her. Ino took out her phone.
Ino: Okay, what the freak? What's gotten into Hinata?
Sakura felt her phone vibrated. She texted.
Sakura: You know Hinata, 50%baka and 50%unpredicatable. Lol
Ino shook her head.
Kakashi walked into the class, whistling. "Sorry I'm- He paused as he noticed Naruto sitting in Kiba's seat, and Hinata glaring at Kiba, who was sitting in Naruto's seat. 'It looks like I won't have to turn in my resignation form.' He smiled.
"Where's Hinata-chan?" Sakura asked Ino, who was sitting underneath the tree.
"I don't know, but she just left with the new kid." Ino shrugged.
"Can somebody please tell me what's going on!" Kiba whined. "Why is Hinata-cha hanging out with the new kid?"
Shino and Choji walked up to the group. "Ne, did you see that. What's the matter with Hinata-chan?" Choji asked as he threw his self on the floor. He flopped on his belly and took out a cook's magazine.
"That's what I'm trying to figure out now." Kiba said shocked.
"It's quite obvious. Hinata-chan has a thing for new the kid." Shikamaru said as he jumped from the tree.
Ino shrieked. "How long were you up there for?"
He sat down next to her.
"Don't be silly." Sakura giggled. "Hinata-chan 99.99% of the male's population."
"She can do better." Ino said jabbing Shikamaru in his side.
"Way better." Sakura said smoothly.
Sasuke crossed his arms. "It is strange for her to act this way towards a male. And she called him Naruto-kun and not baka."
Sakura gasped. "You're right!"
Ino smacked her forehead. "I guess…"
"There she is… with him." Sakura said taking note of Hinata who was walking, with Naruto tagging behind her.
"Hey." Hinata said. "Rookie 8, this is Uzumaki Naruto." Hinata said introducing the boy, who was trying to hide behind Hinata… obviously he didn't know how tall he was.
Ino smiled. "Hi there."
"Hey." Sakura said.
Kiba chose to remain quiet. Hinata glared at him. He sighed in defeat. "HI!"
"Hello." Sasuke said.
Choji rolled on his side. "Sup!"
"Hello, Uzumaki-san." Shino bowed.
Snore. Ino turned to Shikamaru. "Hi." She decided to speak for him.
"H… hello." He whispered. He was feeling uncomfortable.
"Naruto-kun is going to be with us for now on." Hinata told them.
They looked at her as if she was drunk.
"T… that's okay. I d-
"Nonsense. Naruto-kun, remember what I told you." She had turned around to face him. "And they will too." She said. "Sasuke-baka." Hinata said getting everyone's attention. "I want Naruto-kun to join the rookie 8."
"WHAT!" both Ino and Sakura shouted.
Hinata did not budged. Her and Sasuke were having a stare contest. The teens stared at Hinata, then at Sasuke.
"Why?" he finally asked.
"Because, I don't like even numbers." She responded. She had that determination in her eyes again.
There was another stare down.
"Oi!" Sasuke shouted at the blonde teen. Naruto nearly shitted his pants. "My name is Uchiha Sasuke."
Hinata smiled.
"Haruno Sakura."
"Yamanka Ino."
Aburame Shino."
"And that's Nara Shikamaru." Ino said pointing to the sleeping boy.
"Chooojjji!" he grinned.
"Inuzuka Kiba." He said dryly.
"And we're the rookie 8!" they said in unison.
Naruto bowed. "U…Uzumaki Naruto. Thank you."
Hinata beamed with joy, of course she didn't show it on the outside. She hadn't expected Sasuke to actually say yes. She'd figured she would have to beat his ass first. She glanced at Naruto who was surrounded by Sakura and Ino. The boy looked as if he was going to have a nervous breakdown. She didn't know why she has happy. She could have cared less if the new student was getting picked on, she would have ignored just like she did with her friends so many times, but somehow he was different. No long could she stand it; it was about time the school and society changed.
"How is your nose doing?" Sakura asked him.
"Can I see?" Ino was more interested in seeing what was behind all that hair.
Hinata rushed to his side and smacked Ino's hand down.
"Hinata!" Ino cried as she rubbed her hand.
Sakura was baffled that Hinata hit Ino.
"His nose is fine." Hinata said. She hadn't meant to smack Ino on her hand, it just happened. "He's a little shy guys, so be gentle with him." She said. Truth be told, she didn't want anyone seeing his face. His eyes were so mesmerizing, that she wanted it all for herself. She almost blushed at the thought. When had she become so possessive?
Wednesday
Naruto sighed as he sat on the edge of the bed. It was one in the morning and it was almost time to pay for the rent, that being Friday. He needed to find work- soon. He needed the money right now.
'Sorry, sensei.' He thought.
He jumped off of bed and put on a gym shorts, his only pair, and a black shirt that was fitted on him. He walked outside and looked around. He sighed. He didn't want to do this, but he had no other choice. He stood out by a corner and waited for some time before a car pulled up beside him. The window rolled down and a voice spoke, "MFS."
Naruto nodded his head The car door opened and he stepped inside. The car smelt like tobacco and other illegal products. He had his head lowered and felt as the man rubbed on his leg.
"How much?"
He, Naruto, had never did this before, he felt ashamed and uncomfortable as the man rubbed his inner thigh. Naruto face darkened as he felt hot air on his neck.
"How much?" the man asked once more. He spread Naruto legs apart and rubbed in between his crotch area. The man was leaning against him. Naruto pushed the man off of him and ran out of the car. He couldn't do it, he felt nasty and ashamed of himself. He continued to ran and ran as fast as he could. He looked back a couple of times to see if that man was following. He sighed in relief when he noticed there was nobody near him.
He held his stomach as it grumbled for something to eat. Sunday was the last time he ate, from his old job, and he was hungry.
He wondered around the night, searching, thinking of a job that would hire him. He kneeled down in an alley and held his stomach tightly. He walked by a corner store, opened 24/hours, and walked down the aisle. He took note of the cashier playing on her phone. He grabbed a cup of ramen, and a bottle of water out of the freezer. The cashier still hadn't paid any attention to him. He walked over to a shelf and make him a hotdog. He looked over at the cashier who was still on her phone. He gulped as he walked down the aisle once more. He looked over at her once more, she had bended down. He took it as his chance and he bolted out of the door. The cashier looked up and heard the bell, but she hadn't seen anyone. She shrugged.
Naruto sat in a nearby park and shoved the hot dog down his throat. He choked a little, so he drank the water, it spilled all over his shirt, he didn't care. He teared open the ramen cup and ate the raw ramen, occasionally drinking some water with it. He threw the trash on the floor and just sat there. He rocked back and forth. He couldn't go to school today. His train pass was almost out of money and it would have been a far walk from his apartment to Senju Academy.
He hit his head. "Stupid, stupid, stupid." He cried. Why had he listened to his sensei and go to this school! He was struggling enough as it is, he couldn't do it. Then he thought about Hinata. She was kind and sweet to him. He smiled. She was friendly towards him also, but for what reason…nobody had even been nice to him, the only person who was ever nice was his sensei and now he was dead. Who would be nice to him anyway? Maybe this was a ploy, she probably was scheming up a way to embarrass him. He had fallen victim to that before. The pretty girl tried to befriend him, then BAM, he was the laughing stock of the class.
He held his stomach and went to his knees. He had vomit everything he had just consumed. He coughed. He felt lightheaded and dizzy.
"Uzumaki Naruto." Kakashi called out. He noticed that the char in front of Hinata was empty. "Where's Uzumaki Naruto?" Kakashi asked.
"Why don't you ask his girlfriend, Hinata." Melody giggled.
She glared at her. "I don't know sensei; he was here yesterday."
"Don't you guys see. The blond idiot realized he just didn't belong here." Suka said grinning. "I heard he was last seen with the rookie 8."
Kakashi shook his head. He marked him absent.
Hinata tapped her pencil on the desk. She wondered what Naruto was up too. Yesterday had been especially tough on him. He had forgot to do his homework, he was sent to the principal office, Sasuke, thank God, had walked into the bathroom just in time, when a group of students from a different class was shoving his head into the toilet. Some girls had tripped him again and even sprayed soda all over his school clothes. Boy, did she put a beating on them!
She sighed. Maybe she figured that everything would change, maybe she was wrong. Probably he had left to go back to his own school, but the teachers would have known right? She was worried, maybe he had overslept again? If he did, she was going to beat the shit out of him. She looked at the empty seat in front of her and sighed. She felt so fond of him for some reason, like a close connection, and never before had she felt this way about a boy. He was cute, in her opinion, even if he had a unibrow bushy eyebrows, and that he was shy, the complete opposite of her. She felt it was her duty to protect him for some reason.
Sakura looked at Hinata. "Is Hinata-chan really serious about him?' she asked herself after seeing the anxiousness in her eyes.
Thursday
"Uchiha Sasuke."
"Here."
"Uzumaki Naruto."
Silence.
Kakashi sighed.
"Yamanka Ino."
"I mean at least he could have said he wasn't coming back or something." Hinata said angrily. "I even let him join our group." She was pacing back and forth in front of her friends. "You know how many people wish they can be a part of the Rookie 8?" she said staring at them. "The whole damn school! I looked like a fool brining him over here."
Sakura and Ino gulped. They hated when Hinata was angry, no telling who see would hit, probably Kiba.
"Or something happened!" she said. "Or maybe he decided this school wasn't for him." She said sadly.
The group laughed nervously as Hinata mood changed drastically.
"Hinata-chan." Sasuke spoke.
Hinata stopped and looked at him annoyed. "What!"
"What was the real reason you wanted the blond dobe to join our group?" Sasuke asked.
"I told you. I hate even numbers!" she retorted.
Sasuke crossed his arms. Hinata sighed in defeat.
"I'm tired of kids who come here getting pick on. And all we do is watch and sometimes even talk down on them." She tightened her fist.
"Hinata-chan." Ino said. "It's just jokes."
"It isn't if the person isn't laughing!" she shouted. She was angry. Her hands trembled as she stared at the ground. "Remember, Ni Sai." She said as she breathed in and out.
"The kid who got a scholarship last year who was in our class?" Kiba questioned.
Hinata nodded her head.
"Didn't they say he went to prison?" Sakura asked.
"No." she said. "He killed himself."
Sasuke eyes widened. "Ne, what?" he was dumbfounded. "How did you know that?"
"I go to the morgue every two weeks to look talk with Professor Kabuto about the human brain and he had a body laid out and I saw." Her voice was shaken. "Ni Sai there! He had hung himself."
"But the students didn't cause that. He chose to kill himself." Sakura said.
"How would you know! All I know is that we chose to ignore him, even made fun of him and he never came back to school!" Hinata said. "If we had helped him, protected him maybe he would be alive. Now his mother is probably grieving over the loss of her child." She was biting on her lips.
They looked down ashamed. "Gomen, gomen." She said. "I just… want to stop this. Who cares where you're from… I just want this year to be different." She told them.
"Fine, fine." Sasuke said as he shoved his hands into his pocket. He walked over to Hinata and rubbed her head, much to her dislike. "If he doesn't come to school tomorrow, we'll all go by his house Saturday, okay?"
"Fine." She said.
Friday
Hinata sat next to Shikamaru who was staring up at the sky. She took out a bento box and ate a piece of carrot. "What are you thinking about Shikamaru-lazy?"
He sighed. He watched as the clouds formed into different shapes. "Just thinking about what you said the other day. I can't believe it." He said.
"Nobody knows, only Kabuto-sama and the teachers." She said.
"I hope it wasn't us that caused him to kill himself." He admitted.
Hinata rested down her carrots. She thought about Naruto. She had only known him for that one day, but he was so sweet and kind.
"Naruto-kun, let me give you a proper tour of the school. I knew Sakura-chan didn't do a good job." She said. She turned to her friends. "I'll see you in class."
She walked away and Naruto followed behind her.
"This is the swimming pool." She said as she opened the double doors to a large room. "We have swim class on Fridays. We come in here if it's raining." She told him. She walked out through another door. The sun beamed on them. They were not standing outside. It was another pool outside. "And we come outside when it's not raining." She giggled. She turned to look up at him. He was staring out at the pool in awe. It was such a large area. "Ne, Naruto-kun." She frowned. She went on her tiptoes and tied his hair into a ponytail. "Now you can see much better." She grinned.
Naruto blushed as he quickly looked down. He played with his fingers.
"Smile more." She told him.
"I… I rather not." He looked away.
"Why?" she said.
"Because…"
"Are you ticklish?"
"Wait, what?" he said confused. Hinata grinned as she tickled every part of his body. He stood there, not moved. Hinata crossed her arms when she had discovered the boy was not ticklish.
"Can you smile for me?" she pouted.
Naruto looked away and blushed. "I don't think you'll like it…" He glanced at her, she hadn't moved, her lips still pouted. She looked at him, in his eyes. He smiled slightly, not showing her his teeth.
She giggled. "Naruto-kun, you have dimples!" she said. She tiptoed and tried to poke his dimples. He ended up chuckling as Hinata poked his cheeks. He quickly covered his mouth. Hinata stared at him, her smile never leaving her face. "Gotcha." She said swinging her body to the side.
Naruto looked down. He didn't like smiling, looking at people or anything of that sort. He was ashamed of his teeth. They were yellow and cracked, he had over ten cavities, and it looked as if he hadn't brushed them in ten years. He didn't want Hinata to see that, but she did and all she did was smiled at him.
"And this is the outside gym. We have it on Fridays before swimming. The track field is over there." She said pointing to the field. Naruto stared at it. Hinata watched as his eyes held a longing, almost as if he was imaging something.
"We also do P.E in the gym inside if it's raining." She said walking inside. "This is the art room…" she said not looking inside. She had leaned against the wall.
"A… are you okay?" asked Naruto.
She nodded her head. "I just don't like to go in is all." She bounced off the wall and grabbed his hand. "This is the cooking class!" she said showing in a large room, with several stoves and counter tops. "What are your electives?"
"Art and cooking." Naruto informed her.
"Oh, I have music and cooking. Our electives are on Wednesdays and Fridays." She said. "A-She had tripped over her own shoes. She was certain she would look like a total klutz in front of Naruto after this, but she never made the floor. Instead she felt strong arms wrapped around her waist.
Naruto helped her up and jumped back, staring at the ground. "Sorry."
Hinata looked at him and smiled. "Ba-ka." She said hitting him playfully on the arm. "Let me show you the music room."
"I got the address." Sakura said holding up a piece of paper.
Hinata nodded. "Thanks Sakura-chan."
"No problem. Sasuke-kun should be back Saturday morning, around 1oclock."
"Where does he live?" Shikamaru asked.
"10th Dale Street…" she trailed off.
"That's a far distance from the school!" Hinata shouted.
"I know. I know." Sakura said.
"Wow." Shikamaru responded.
Hinata looked up at the sky once more. "Naruto-kun."
Saturday
"So, son how is school coming along?"
Sasuke was looking down on his phone. His family had just come from a conference in Suna and he was exhausted. It was almost two in the morning.
"Honey, enough about school. You know he's already doing well. He's the best in the school." His mother said.
Sasuke smirked. "Mother knows best."
Fugaku, Sasuke's father, chuckled. "Not all the time."
Mikoto, Sasuke's mother, glared at her husband. "Did you say something honey?"
He chuckled nervously. "N… no sweetie."
He continued to drive. "Ah, I hate this part of Konoha." Fugaku said.
He was driving his black Cadillac Escalade, on a dirt road. "Be careful, honey."
"Yes dear." He groaned. "It's one in the morning, who would be catching a bus late at night.
"Honey, you're off. Can't you just leave this person alone." Mikoto whined.
Fugaku sighed. "Fine." He told her.
Sasuke glanced out the window and his eyes widened. "Hold on, that's one of my friends." Sasuke was taken back, did he just say friend?
Fugaku brake the car. The car window slide down. "Oi, dobe. What are you doing out here?"
Naruto looked up. "Oh… h… hi Sasuke."
Sasuke stared at him and noticed he had on his school clothes, and had a black duff bag with him. 'He probably went to school today.'
"What are you doing out here? Do you want a ride?" Sasuke asked.
Naruto shook his head. "M… my ride will be here." He said looking down. Sasuke had a hard time hearing him.
Fugaku looked at him. He noticed blond shaggy hair that covered the boy's face, he was wearing school clothes that barely fitted him, and it also had a stain. "Senju Academy is slacking.'
"Does your friend want a ride?" Mikoto asked Sasuke.
"It's a little late kid." Fugaku had rolled down his window. "How long until your ride reach?"
"Soon…"
Fugaku rolled the window up. He was off until seven o clock tonight, but he had a nagging feeling in the back of his head.
"Are you sure?" Sasuke asked.
"H… Hai." Naruto stuttered.
"I'll see you at school Monday, okay?" he said.
Naruto nodded his head.
Fugaku drove off. "Is he knew? How come I've never met him?" Mikoto asked.
"He seems a little strange." Fugaku laughed.
Mikoto hit him. "Is he a part of the rookie 8?" she giggled. "It's about time you guys added somebody to your group. I think that's sweet of you." She said smiling.
"Yeah, he's the one that got the scholarship."
"Oh really. Well that's nice of you guys to treat him with welcome arms." Mikoto said.
"Yeah…"
Ring
Sakura yawns: Hello?
Sasuke: Oi. How come nobody told me he came back to school?
Sakura confused: Who?
Sasuke groaned: Naruto.
Sakura: Naruto didn't come to school. He was absent. I got his address
Sasuke tilted his head: We just pass by him and he had on his school clothes and was carry a duffle bag.
Sakura; Was it the Senju Academy school clothes?
Sasuke: Yes? I told him I would see him to school Monday and he just nodded his head.
Sakura: That's strange.
Sasuke: Yeah… so I guess we can wait Monday.
Sakura: Sounds good.
Sasuke: Ja ne.
Sakura: Night.
"Why did we have to come to this area?" Sugo, a police officer asked.
"Because we got a call that somebody was here." Fugaku said. He was on patrol today.
"It's probably a homeless person." He groaned.
"Even so, they can't be here. It's past sunset." He reminded him. "And also there has been teens vandalizing the park and leaving trash everywhere." Fugaku said shinning his light.
"What do you expect from these kind of people." Sugo sneered.
Fugaku chose to ignore his comment. Such ignorance. He shined it on the bench and saw somebody lying down.
"Excuse me." He shouted. "The park is close."
Sugo also shinned his light on the person. He'd looked like a young school boy.
"Hello!" he shouted. He walked up the boy and shined the flashlight on his face. "Hey, this is one of my son's friends!" he shouted as he remembered the boy from this morning. He kneeled down and shook the boy, but he hadn't moved.
"N… Naruto?" he said unsurely.
"Fugaku-sama, look." Sugo said shinning the light. Fugaku eyes widened as he looked at the different brands of pills scattered all over the floor.
"I need a bus," Sugo said into his talkie. "20th K Square, Mongolia Park Center."
Fugaku stared at the kid, shocked. He smelled and looked as if he hadn't eaten for somedays. This was one of his son's friends, who he had just saw earlier. He should have listened to his gut feeling and taken the child home. What type of Chief of Police was he? He should've known better then to leave a child alone in the middle of the night. He glanced over at the box of medications.
Hospital
"Where is he?" Sasuke asked. He was out of breath. Fugaku cursed his self. He and told Mikoto not to the boy until he had gotten news that Naruto would be fine.
"The doctors are with him." Fugaku said.
"Are you sure he tried to kill himself?" Sasuke asked. So many things were running through his mind.
Fugaku swallowed whatever he had in his mouth. "Sasuke, was Naruto homeless?"
Sasuke was stunned. "No… he had a home address and…He looked at his father. "He was homeless?"
"Sasuke-baka!" Hinata ran up to him. She, too, was out of breath. "Where is he? Is he okay?" she asked worriedly.
He sat down on the empty chair.
Hinata turned around and saw Fugaku standing there. "Mr. Uchiha, how is Naruto-kun?" she wanted somebody to answer her.
"Hinata-chan, sit down." Sasuke told her.
Hinata breath quicken. "No… no…" she shook her head. "Not again." She felt the tears threatened to fall.
"Hinata-chan, did Naruto ever mention anything about a home or where he lived…?" Fugaku asked.
Hinata sat down and shook her head. "Wait, why are you asking me this? Is his parents here?" she jumped back up. "I need to see them…"
"His parents died when he was only a month old." Fugaku said. Hinata was startled. "He was homeless." Hinata sat back down. Of course, the smell, unkempt hair, hygiene. It all made sense. "We went to the apartment listed, but the owner told us he had kicked him out that Friday because he couldn't pay the rent."
"Can he do that?" Sasuke asked.
Fugaku sighed. "He can."
Hinata balled her fist. "That's unfair!" she shouted. "Why didn't he tell anyone?" she cried.
"Fugaku-sama." The doctor bowed.
Fugaku also bowed. "How is he?"
Hinata and Sasuke got up. "He's okay, it's a good thing you found him when you did." The doctor said pulling off his gloves.
"Can we see him? Hinata asked.
"You can, but he's sleeping right now." He told her. "Although he's not 100%. He's suffering from a kidney and bladder infection; he is malnutrition." He told Fugaku. "I don't know how long this kid was going to make it, if he was to spend one more night out there. He has pneumonia."
"Any drug use? Sexual abuse? Stds!"
"No, no signs."
Fugaku was frustrated. How long was this kid out there for on his own?
Hinata couldn't hear anything else the doctor had to say. She stepped into the room and saw Naruto hooked up to a machine. She walked quietly and stared at him. She grabbed his hand and held it tightly.
"I said I would protect you." She whispered.
Sasuke stood behind her. The beeping of the machines got to him, and he rushed out of the room.
"How is Sasuke's friend?" Mikoto said as she walked up to Fugaku.
"Not so good, he has a kidney and bladder infection and pneumonia." He informed her.
"Where are his parents!" She snapped. "You need to arrest them for child neglecting." She was angry.
Fugaku tried to calm her down. He explained the whole situation to her. Her expression softened. She saw Sasuke who had run out of the room and was leaning against the door.
"Fugaku…" she said.
He looked at her. "No, no Mikoto-san." He already knew what the woman was thinking. "We cannot."
"But you make a lot of money as it is! He's homeless, he's Sasuke's friend… he needs a home sweetie." She told him.
Fugaku shook his head. "That's too much work. You can't come in here and decide these kinds of things! He isn't a doll Mikoto, you can't throw him away. We'll look for an orphanage to send him too or something."
Mikoto frowned. "So he can get lost in the system? I thought you were better than that." She said. She walked into the room and closed the door silently behind her.
Fugaku sat down and pushed his head back. This was going to be a long report.
