Chapter one
It was an early morning and in the local school - Konoha high - stood a blond boy looking greatly confused.
"I think we have science now…" Naruto mumbled.
"Or was it math?" He scratched the back of his head. "Math, definitely math." He grabbed his book when he heard the first bell go off and hurried to his classroom.
"Naruto, why do you have your math book with you even though we have poetry class now?" Kakashi-sensei raised his eyes from the book that he read at the moment.
"Eh, well…" Naruto tried his best to come up with a good answer.
"I can send you to Anko's office if you want to see her that badly." Kakashi said and put the book down on his desk. Naruto got a greenish color on his face as he thought about seeing Anko.
"No thank you." He mumbled.
"Then go get the right books. Oh, and you better hurry if you don't want to get a red mark on this lesson."
Naruto turned and ran as fast as he could to his locker. Great, at least there aren't any nerdy hallway cops here. He was only able to think the sentence before he ran into Gai-sensei.
"Huh? Naruto? Why are you not in class with the other wonderful young boys and girls?" Gai stood up and brushed the dirt off his green jumpsuit.
"I'm sorry Gai-sensei. I had to get the right book, that's all. I promise." Gai-sensei raised an eyebrow to let him know he doubted him.
"That is a really cool jumpsuit Gai-sensei, where can you buy one like that? Naruto bowed when he said the lame line as an apology. What wont a guy do to get away unpunished?
"Hahahaha! That is alright my young man, you see when I was young I was also a very active boy, it might come to you as a surprise that I did not have many friends."
Naruto only gave his weird teacher a bad excuse for a smile.
"Um Gai-sensei, I need to get to my class before I get a red mark."
"Of course! Off you go" Gai-sensei gave him a big thumbs-up and that annoying smile of his. Naruto stared to walk to his class when he felt a hand on his shoulder, stopping him.
"I almost forgot to give you this. Now have a good day" Gai walked off with a big smile on his face waving to some random persons he passed in the hallway. But Narutos facial expression was not even close to a smile, it was the horrible opposite actually. In his hand was a note with the letters SPEED TICKETacross it. He got detention after school for two hours but the worst part was that it was together with Anko. "Damn it!"
Naruto slammed the class door wide open causing the entire class to look at him. "I… Am… Back." He panted trying to catch his breath. Kakashi turned and looked at him with a annoyed look in his eyes
"So now when Naruto have been kindly enough to join our class and let us all know that, let's continue. Oh and Naruto…" Kakashi turned to face him one more time.
"You sit next to Miss Hyuuga today." He pointed to a table in the back of the classroom where a girl with dark hair and lavender eyes sat.
Hyuuga Hinata was a quiet girl that Naruto didn't understand. She often blushed and played with her fingers and looked down at the ground. He didn't hate her but he didn't like her either, basically, he had no opinion on her at all. She was nothing like Sakura or Ino who always was in the middle of everyone's attention. And she stuttered.
"U-um Naruto-kun, we are s-supposed to read and analyze this paper." Hinata passed him a piece of paper. She blushed when their hands touched each other.
Hinata's POV
"… and he was mostly famous because of his tragedies." Kakashi-sensei had just finished his sentence when the door flew open and Naruto-kun stood there panting.
"I... Am... Back." He said and leaned forward to make it easier to breath.
Kakashi turned away from the blackboard and looked at straight at Naruto.
"So now when Naruto have been kindly enough to join our class and let us all know that, let's continue. Oh and Naruto…" Kakashi turned once more to look at the panting blonde. "You sit next to Miss Hyuuga today"
Hinata could feel how her cheeks started to heat up and get redder as she blushed. Oh please Kakashi-sensei not next to me! I will only make a fool out of myself. She cried and begged on the inside but Kakashi-sensei could obviously not see that. Naruto hurried over to her table and sat down next to her. He was so close that she could sense his sweet scent.
"U-um Naruto-kun, we are s-supposed to read and analyze this paper." Hinata passed him a piece of paper and she felt his big hand barely touch hers and yet she got an even deeper blush on her face.
The assignment was to pick a poet and analyze his or hers work. This meant they had to meet each other after school to work on this. Hinata was so nervous that her hands were shaking just by sitting next to him in class, so she couldn't even imagine how nervous she would be to meet him after school.
"Oy Hinata, you okay?" Naruto leaned forward toward her ear and whispered. Hinata thought she would die but she just nodded to let him know she was OK. He was still really close looking at her with worried eyes. I will pass out soon if he stays this close.
The bell rang, which was really lucky for Hinata. Saved by the bell! Thank you god!
The hallway was completely filled with people, it wasn't that rare since Konoha high was a very big school.
"Hm, what class do we have now?" Ino looked at Hinata and Sakura.
"No idea." Sakura shrugged and went back to looking at something in her locker. Ino and Sakura were both standing with their noses in their looker looking for the schedule.
"P.E with Gai-sensei!" A voice shouted down the hall.
"Hiii, Ten-Ten!" Ino waved and smiled to the one year older girl.
"'Sup girls?" She flashed them one of her famous smiles.
"We're good, and you?" Ino closed the locker with her right hand, holding her big bag in her left.
"I had a really hard math test with Anko and I dropped my pen and when I was about to pick it up she sent me out saying I had tried to cheat." Ten-Ten sighed.
"Ah, she can be such a bitch sometimes!" Sakura filled in. The four girls smiled in agreement as they walked to their P.E.
The guys were already in the gym when the girls walked in. Hinata could feel how she blushed when she saw Naruto and remembered that she had to spend time with him after school hours.
"Hey guys, isn't Gai-sensei here already?"
"Yo, Ino." Kiba grinned. "No we saw him earlier talking to Kakashi-sensei about how amazing jumpsuits are." Shino said.
"Omg! He's such a weirdo!" Sakura said and rolled her eyes. Everyone agreed and laughed as Gai-sensei walked in.
"Yosh, my youthful children of happiness! Today will we have company from Suna high, this is to prepare you for the big competition we will have next month."
There were about twenty people from Suna high walking in to the gym.
"And I know we are many boys and girls in this gym today but… the more people the cozier! So share the gym hall equally today!" Gai-sensei gave all the teenagers a thumbs-up and laughed out loudly.
"What's wrong with that psycho teacher?"
The whole group turned to face the students from Suna high. Sure they mocked Gai-sensei a lot but that didn't mean people from other schools was allowed to. A brunet boy with weird purple make up in his face and a blonde girl stood there looking disgusted at Gai-sensei.
"What did you just say about Gai-sensei?" Rock Lee glared at the brown headed boy who looked a bit surprised to see almost a copy of the strange teacher.
"I said he was a psycho teacher." The answer came in a low, husky voice filled with hatred.
"He is not a psycho teacher!" Lee clenched his fist and looked at the Suna stranger with eyes burning of fighting spirit. "I will not let a comment like that slide through without defending my teachers honor."
"Kankuro don't start a fight with this freaky lil' boy." The blonde girl looked at the group with a smirk on her face. "It's not worth the effort."
"Yeah you're right Temari, I don't have time to play with a ugly weak boy who obviously have a crush on his teacher."
Lee blushed.
"I don't have a crush on Gai-sensei, I love…" He blushed even more and lowered his head, too embarrassed to say the words everyone already knew.
"Pfft, whatever!" Kankuro gave them one last smirk before he started to walk off with Temari.
Naruto felt as his rage started to bubble up inside him, but it was yet Rock Lee that spoke again.
"I won't allow it!" He ran towards Kankuro that looked rather surprised when he got hit in the back by Lee.
"What the…" He turned and smacked Lee in the face causing Lee to have a nosebleed.
The teachers who saw the whole shebang started to run towards the fighting boys.
"Kankuro, stop right away."
Kankuros fist stopped just seconds before he would have smacked Lee again. Everyone turned and looked at the new person that had showed up right behind them.
A/N: Omg who can that be? =D
