Dreamland

Sakura awoke to bright lights and the loud metallic humming of the subway. She blinked, trying to get her eyes accustomed to the change in lighting. Looking around, she the bus she was on was in her neighborhood. How'd I get here…? Sakura wondered, before she realized she had been dreaming.
She stayed on the bus until an annoyed looking woman told her the bus didn't go any farther. Sakura grabbed her things and got off the bus, but looking around, she realized she was no where near her house.
Sakura backtracked in the direction she hoped was her house, because she didn't seem to have her cellphone on her, and she didn't know where her house was (Look, she's so new to town; the only pieces of furniture in her house are the couch and the TV, and that's not including the things in boxes). She must've left her cellphone at home, charging.
So in the next half hour or so, Sakura managed to get herself completely and hopelessly lost. That is, until she found the café.
The café was small, and hidden down a side street; so of course, there were only two people in the store at the time Sakura found it; the cashier, and a guy with dark black hair.
As she walked inside the guy glanced up at her and she was startled by his deep onyx eyes. His face showed no emotion whatsoever, a look Sakura would soon know very well.
Walking up to the cashier, she got a smoothie, because coffee this late was sure to keep her awake, and all she wanted to do was sleep. Taking a slurp of her smoothie, she looked for a place to sit and saw, out of the corner of her eye, a pay phone.
She walked over to the pay phone, but the dark haired guy got there first. She decided to wait, so she sat down at the closest table and drank her smoothie. But while watching the dark haired guy, she couldn't help noticing how cute he was. By the time he finally got off, she was halfway done with her smoothie.
Sakura got up while fishing in her purse for change, and got out two quarters. Paying, she pondered on who she should call, and decided on Ino. That's what friends are for, right? Picking up your friend when they get lost trying to walk home from the bus stop at 2 am while you're trying to get your long lost beauty sleep? Needless to say, Ino looked pretty pissed when she drove up to the café to pick up Sakura.

Sakura's head shot up and off the pillow as she woke up. "Omigosh, today's the day I start high school!"
"…You forgot?" Ino asked. Sakura immediately remembered the night before; leaving the café, going to her house only to find she'd left her keys inside the house, and going to Ino's house to spend the night.
"Umm, well, sort of." Sakura replied.
x---------------------------------------------------------x
Sakura got out of Ino's car and looked at her new school. But she couldn't because Ino ran out of the car, grabbed her arm, and ran up the pathway towards a group of girls waving.
"Hey everyone this is Sakura!" Ino yelled after saying hi. "This is Tenten…" here she points at a girl with chocolate brown hair in buns "this is Temari…" here she points to a girl with here hair sandy brown and up in four ponytail-ish things "and this is Hinata." Then she points to a girl with lavender eyes and short dark brown hair.
"Hi!" Sakura yells at them happily.
"Come on, we have to go get your schedule!" Ino shouts, and drags her inside the building. Then she drags her up some stairs, down a hall, and into a room labeled 'main office', with Tenten, Temari, and Hinata following.
They waited as Sakura filled out a bunch of forms, but when the bell rang, they had to leave to get to their classes.
Then some teacher helped Sakura find her homeroom, and they left her there. She told the teacher that she was a new student, and he helped her get started, though she noticed he kept looking at her shirt, even though it was just a plain pink tank top. Weirdo… she thought.
Ino and Tenten were in her homeroom, so she showed them the schedule they'd given her. It looked something like this:
HR Jiraiya
1 Math Asuma
2 PE Gai
3 Science Kakashi
4 Lunch
5 Language Arts Kurenai
6 Social Studies Iruka
7 Mini-courses Anko
Cooking (1 semester), Singing (2 semester), Computers (3
semester)
"Cool! We've got 3rd, 5th, and 7th hour together!" Ino said.
"Yeah, and I've got 1st, 2nd, and 5th with you!" Tenten said as the bell rang. "Oh, come on, I'll show you where our 1st hour is! See ya Ino!" And she grabbed her bag and got up.
"Ok, laters, Ino!" Sakura cried as she grabbed her things and followed Tenten out the door.
"Bye! See you 3rd hour!" Ino called as she too grabbed her things and left in the other direction.
