Chapter 1 - Beginning
Sakura Haruno woke in her small house one morning and groaned, "Time for school..." she muttered sleepily and stumbled towards the bathroom. Her bubble-gum pink hair swaying and emerald eyes half closed as she took a shower, dried her hair and sorted the best outfit for her first day in high school. It was 7:45am when she emerged from her red painted room in skinny jeans, a blue shirt and grey hoodie, for breakfast.
Pouring her cereal, she thought about her previous school, and that certain previous boyfriend, Sai. 'That gay ass retard' she thought, rolling her green orbs in disgust. She remembered at the beginning, he was nice and kind and caring...but then sort of, stopped liking her. Like she didn't exist, or didn't need his attention, or wasn't worth it. Sakura took a deep breath, 'a new beginning at a new school and a new life, is just what I need' she thought.
Finishing up her cereal, she glanced at the clock, 7:55. 'Oh shit, I'm gonna be late on the first day!' Sakura thought and quickly snatched her white bag and keys, then half-walked, half-ran to her silver Viper. Time: 7:57, "Aaahh! School starts at 8am!" Sakura said out loud and revved up the engine. Her pink locks blowing around her head as she dialled Tenten's number and drove off.
"Sup Sak?" asked Tenten,
"Oh, nothing, just arriving late on the FIRST day!" replied Sakura.
Tenten is Sakura's best friend and is starting high school at Konoha High, the same as Sakura. Except that Tenten was already there, and not running late. She always had her chocolate brown hair tied up in two buns at the top of her head, and her hazel eyes were bright and she is tom-boyish.
"What's takin' you?"
"I was just...thinking at breakfast. It's ok, I'll be there in a sec!"
"Whatever, but hurry up. I don't want to be a loner."
"Ok, is Ino with you?"
Ino is another of Sakura's friends that came from her previous school. She has platinum blonde hair that reached to her waist in a high ponytail with a long side fringe. Ino was more of a girly girl and absolutely adored shopping, Tenten on the other hand liked video games and sport better. Sakura was just...Sakura, good at soccer and drawing.
"Nup, she's at school, just not with me. Probably flirting with guys again."
"Yeah, that'd be her. Well, I'll be over soon, wait for me!"
"Kay, cya."
Sakura hung up and planted both hands on the steering wheel. 'No cop's around?' She thought, scanning the roads around her, 'good'. She sped off at top speed towards Konoha High.
Sakura arrived a couple of minutes later and panted as she stood at the front desk.
"May I...please..have ...my schedule?" she asked between gasps of air.
The woman behind the desk with 'Shizune' on her gold name tag nodded.
"Unusual for one of the new students to be late" she said as she dug through the papers on the desk, "everyone else has gone to their first class for the usual talk on the school and rules."
Shizune finally placed a small green book on the desk and slid it over to Sakura, "Sakura Haruno, hope you have an enjoyable first day!"
Sakura smiled, 'I sure hope so too' and she ran to her classroom on the first floor.
Ino sat in the corner of the classroom staring out the window. She was waiting for Sakura to arrive because Kakashi-sensei, their teacher, said that she was in Ino's class.
Ino sighed, she wasn't usually this bored. Normally, she was bubbly and smiling and shouting everywhere, but today she just felt out of it. 'I need some fun, guess boy-checking is first on the list' she turned her head to the fellow students in the room. Ino scanned the class and her eyes fell on a group of boys sitting in the far corner. One of them had sparkling blue eyes and bright blonde spiky hair, he was grinning non-stop and didn't seem to be able to sit still. The guy leaning on a desk near the blonde dude, had jet black hair that was spiky at the back and fell in bangs over eyes at the front. His onyx orbs were fixed on the table looking very bored, but Ino didn't care. 'Omg, that black haired guy is H-O-T, HOT!!' she thought, 'I wonder what his name is...?' shrugging mentally, she continued looking over the group. There was one boy slouching in his chair, his pineapple shaped brown hair sticking out the back of his head. 'Aw, he's sorta cuuute' thought Ino, smiling to herself.
In the middle of Ino's "checking out-ness", Kakashi started on roll call. "Please would people take their seats". He started calling a couple of names and Ino started to get worried that Sakura had crashed and was unable to accompany her in their very first day of high school! Suddenly someone rushed into the room and Ino looked up in surprise, it was Sakura, she looked a bit red in the face but not dirty and definitely not involved in a car crash.
Kakashi looked up from his list and at her, "Sakura Haruno? Please take a seat by Sasuke Uchiha."
'Huh? Who's Sasuke Uchiha?' thought Sakura. She looked around the room confused.
The boy with the black hair and onyx eyes sighed and raised his hand.
'OMG!' thought Ino, 'It's the hot guy I was checking out just before! Way to go Sakura!'
Sakura made her way towards the teenager with black bangs, 'whoa, talk about scoring on the first day!'
She spotted Ino in a corner and saw her silently pump her fist in the air, 'You go girl!'
Sakura blushed and smiled, then planted herself in the chair next to Sasuke.
Kakashi continued his role call, "Naruto Uzumaki", the blonde grinning spiky haired boy cried "YEP!!"
"Shikamaru Nara"
"Yeah" the pineapple haired boy answered.
"Neji Hyuga"
A calm boy with long dark brown hair tied at the bottom and pearly light blue eyes nodded his head at the teacher.
'He's one of the boy's that was sitting by Sasuke, and so was Shikamaru' thought Ino.
"Kiba Inuzuka"
"Yes"
'Another one sitting next to Sasuke' Kiba had short spiky brown hair and two upside-down red triangle tattoo's below his eyes.
"Shino Aburame"
A guy with small sunglasses hiding his eyes and a high collared white jacket, nodded his head at Kakashi-sensei. 'He's another one of those guys sitting in "Sasuke's group". Hehe, I like that name' thought Ino.
Kakashi closed the roll and pulled out a small orange book.
"I thought we were supposed to hear about the school?" whispered Sakura to Sasuke,
"We are" Sasuke whispered back.
"Then why is he reading that purvey book instead of giving us our explanation?"
"Coz he's a perve. Anyway, I can't stand explanations, they're boring. I prefer figuring stuff out myself" answered Sasuke, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Sakura just frowned and laid her head on the desk.
Sasuke smirked, "So where you come from candy-floss?"
Sakura glared at him, 'Nosy stuck-up bastard, I hate him already'
"Why do you care? And there's nothing wrong with my hair, it's naturally pink"
Sasuke smirked again,
'God his smirk is hot' thought Sakura trying desperately not to blush.
"Never said it wasn't" replied Sasuke, noticing her blush, and smirking more.
"Well..." Sakura struggled for a comeback, "...your hair looks like a chicken's ass!"
The smirk was wiped clean off Sasuke's face.
Someone chuckled beside Sakura and both of them turned to see who it was,
"Shut up Hyuga" snarled Sasuke to the pale-eyed boy sitting next to Sakura on the other side.
"Ha! He agrees with me! I WIN!" cried Sakura triumphantly.
"Yeah...it does kinda look like a chicken's butt teme!" said the blonde named Naruto,
"I said shut up, dobe"
Sakura was grinning the whole time the conversation about Sasuke's (hot) hair was happening.
"What are you grinning at Candy?" asked Sasuke,
"Nothing!" Sakura answered in fake innocence, then smirked at his annoyance.
"Don't worry about him, he ju.." Neji was cut off by a voice at the door.
"SAK-UUU-RA, III-NO!!" someone cried near the front of the classroom, it was Tenten.
Neji's whitish eyes widened, 'Holy shit...' He saw Tenten standing near the door in a blue miniskirt, white strapless tube shirt and pink white striped flats. Tenten caught his eye and Neji quickly looked away, a slight pink tint on his pale cheeks. Tenten smiled, 'the one with long hair looks fierce!' she thought, strolled over to Ino and sat down next to her. Neji snuck a look at Tenten and she winked at him, which made him turn his head away (again).
"You were saying..?" asked Sasuke smirking, he had seen everything that had happened between Neji and Tenten. Neji just sat there silently, the pink tint still present.
"You seem to know her Sakura" said Sasuke nodding towards Tenten and saw Neji perk up.
"Er..yeah, she's one of my best friends" said Sakura, waving at Tenten and smiling, "her name's Tenten and that girl she's next to is Ino. She's my other friend".
"What's it to you anyway...Sasuke?" said Sakura,
"Nothing, just curious"
"Sure you are" Sakura eyed him suspiciously.
"Hn" Sasuke said simply,
"Sorry?"
"Hn"
"What does that mean?"
"Hn"
"Ugh, I give up" stated Sakura and she waved Tenten and Ino over to their table.
Ino grinned and Tenten smiled deviously as they approached and stood in front of the group of boy's and Sakura.
"Hi, I'm Ino Yamanaka"
"And I'm Tenten" said Tenten scanning the boy's like Ino did before. Her eyes landed on the pearly eyed teen with the long brown hair, she smiled at him and he smiled back.
"Hiya! I'm Naruto!!"
"Don't have to be so loud dobe"
"I'm Kiba, and that was Sasuke"
"Sup, name's Shino"
"Shikamaru"
Ino smiled inwardly, he was the pineapple head that looked bored but cute at the same time.
"And that's Neji Hyuga" said Sakura mainly to Tenten because of the previous events.
"Wait a sec...Hyuga?" asked Ino, "like Hinata Hyuga? Like our friend Hinata? Like our friend Hinata Hyuga?"
"You know my cousin? I thought she was coming to this school, wonder where she is..." said Neji.
Just then a girl with raven black hair stumbled into the room, she wore a baggy white jumper that was two sizes too big for her. Her face was all red and flushed, and she looked distressed and confused.
'Aah, just like Hinata' thought Neji, Ino, Tenten and Sakura at the same time.
Ino called Hinata over to meet their new friends but as she walked she accidently tripped over a book.
"Oh no!" cried Naruto and he rushed up just in time to catch her.
"Aaahh" said Hinata and her turned bright red, "th-thank y-y-you..."
"Naruto, I'm Naruto"
"Th-thank you..Naruto" Hinata smiled, and so did Naruto who quickly lifted Hinata up and place her on her feet.
Hinata came over and hugged her friends and Neji. "H-hello, I'm Hinata" Hinata stuttered,
"Hinata, try to stop stuttering, you've been doing since you were 13" said Neji,
"Yeah, have faith in yourself Hinata" added Naruto. Hinata looked at him and blushed again, "I'll try, Naruto"
"The Bell's gonna ring any minute now" stated Shikamaru.
"What classes have you guys got?" asked Kiba and they all checked their timetables and figured out that Sakura and Sasuke had Sport and Hinata, Naruto, Kiba and Shino went to English, while Ino, Shikamaru, Tenten and Neji studied History.
The Bell signalled the end of class and the group of new friends headed towards their next subjects.
"You good at sport Candy?" asked Sasuke, smirking at Sakura's glare.
"I'm OK, what about you chicken's ass?"
Sasuke glared, "I bet I'm better than you!"
They all fell silent as their teacher, Anko-sensei, called out orders.
"EVERYONE go and change into your PE uniform! Today we'll be playing soccer!"
'Perfect, now I can show Sakura what I can do!' thought Sasuke.
'I'll tear him apart before he knows what's happening' grinned Sakura.
The boys were wearing red shorts and white shirts with Konoha High's logo in red on the back. The girls wore red plaid skirts that went down to the mid thigh and also white shirts with the logo.
"Alright!" shouted Anko-sensei and she looked at her roll list, "umm...Sakura Haruno, you will be captain of Team 1 and...er Sasuke Uchiha, you'll be captain of Team 2, please stand up front and I'll pick the teams for you..."
"HEY! Why does she get to be captain? I want to be captain like Sasuke!" cried a bratty looking girl with black hair and ugly glasses, 'another fan girl' sighed Sasuke.
"Karin, am I correct? I pick the teams here and I don't give a...basketball whether you care or not! Ow pipe down!" Anko-sensei picked their teams and said that for today's lesson, they were playing soccer, Team 1 vs. Team 2. They played in the gym and Team 1 started with the ball.
'Time to kick ass' both captains grinned.
W00t...it's the end of the chapter! TT :D
