Hinata ran down the stairs tripping over her own feet twice. Lucky for her she was grabbing the rail or else she would have gotten hurt. Her cousin and sister were in the car waiting for her. It was their first day of school so needless to say she was excited. She thought she could make new friends this year since they would be juniors. Well she would be a junior, her cousin a senior and her sister an eight grader.

In her previous years she was more of an outcast or as they would call her, a loner who occasionally hung out with the misfits like Chouji or Lee. But this year with a slight makeover from the ladies at the hair salon she normally went to for her monthly haircut she was confident that she could at least make a few new friends. Besides that she knew her speech had gotten better. She hardly stuttered unless surprised or embarrassed and even spoke a little louder than before.

"Hurry up Hinata!" Her younger sister Hanabi called from the car. "Were going to be late!"

Hinata tripped near the door hitting her head on it. "Ow" she would have cursed but since her family was a proper one she refrained.

"Geez she so clumsy" Hanabi smiled as did Neji her cousin.

Hinata finally got into the car and they were off to high school. Once there Neji parked his car in his usual place and growled when some freshman parked their cars next to him. He wouldn't have minded but one, it was the upper class' parking lot meaning only juniors and seniors could park there and second, they were playing with a football tossing it back and forth almost hitting his very very did I mention very? Expensive car.

The annoying freshman (A/N Im sorry to those who are freshman not trying to offend you) threw the ball but the teenager who was supposed to catch it missed letting the football be caught by none other than the owner of the expensive car. The teenagers motioned for him to throw the ball back. His eyes examined the football in his left hand then he glanced at the freshmen.

"Neji" Hinata started but quieted when she saw the Im-going-to-murder-them look in his eyes.

She expected him to keep the football and ignore them, she even expected him to beat them up but instead he looked up at them with an out of character smile. The freshmen smiled back and expected him to say a 'what's up?' or a 'good throw' but instead he motioned for the one who threw the football to 'go long' and threw it as hard as he could. The poor guy didn't even have a chance to turn all the way when the football made its sickening impact on his face making him bleed and possibly breaking his nose.

Hanabi smiled and Hinata winced, "That was a little extreme don't you think?"

"He deserved it" was is short reply.

Hinata glanced back at the young man who was now on the floor with his friends circling around him. 'Poor guy'

They walked inside the school grounds seeing the usual thing on the first day of school. Students pushed each other so they could get a better look of the sheets posted up on the side of the buildings.

"Alright I'm outta here" Hanabi walked away to her school which was down the street from theirs.

"Why did she even come inside with us?" Neji eyed the sheets and the students as if trying to decide if it was a good idea to throw himself in there with them.

"Maybe she wanted to see the grounds. She is going to be a freshman next year after all" Hinata smiled shyly.

"Don't let go alright?"

She was about to ask what he meant when he grabbed her hand in his and lead her threw the crowd of crazed students. People shoved her left and right making her appreciate her cousin's earlier action. Some people would take advantage of a large crowd and grope the girls while others stole from people's bags so Hinata made sure that her side backpack was closed tightly. She held on tightly to his hand but due to her sweaty palms she was separated from him. He turned around to look for her but she couldn't spot her in the crowd. He cursed her being so short and tried to find her.

Hinata was pushed down to the ground and people didn't even take the time to help her up. She grabbed her backpack and tried to stand up but kept being pushed down. She reached her hand out to try to hold on to something to get up but instead she found someone's hand. That hand led her out of the crowd and with her clumsiness she tripped over someone's shoe and fell towards the person who had helped her. Her head hit an obviously toned chest which made come to her conclusion of 'a boy?'

Looking up she saw golden eyes staring at her in confusion. Realizing that their position wasn't one for strangers to find themselves in she stood straight. "I uh sorry"

"No its alright. Are you ok?"

"Yes thank you"

"No problem but uh why don't you have someone go in there with you? or better yet for you?"

Her eyes widened a bit, "Neji"

"Hm?" he smiled at her, "ah your boyfriend right?"

She blushed, "N-no!" damn her stuttering. "I he... he's just"

"Hinata" Neji's voice cut in. At this point he didnt know whether to be relieved she didnt get hurt or upset that she was talking to strange boy.

"My cousin" she smiled.

Neji walked up to her making sure she was ok. "I'm really sorry"

"You should take better care of her" the boy who had helped Hinata crossed his arms. "She fell and no one was helping her"

"Well she's with me now so she's fine" Neji wrapped his arm protectively around Hinata, something he had never done before. Even he was surprised at his own possessive reaction. Sure he knew he had a thing for the Hyuga heiress but never had he acted on it. He wasnt so sure his uncle would be so happy to learn that the 'bodyguard' fell for her. Especially since it was incest...

"Not your boyfriend huh?" the boy smirked at her.

"I am not her boyfriend" Neji stated bitterly.

"Sure" he smiled at Hinata, "Take care alright?" and walked away.

Hinata didn't know why but she sensed Neji was saddened when he had said that he wasn't her boyfriend. "Uh did you find out what class we have for homeroom?"

"Yes, I have room S-4 and you have B-8"

"Alright, I guess I'll see you at lunch if we have it together ok?" she said this slowly afraid to upset him.

"Yeah, meet me in the usual place" he replied offhandedly.

She nodded and walked to her homeroom. He would have walked her but his class was on the other side of the campus and this campus was particularly large. "Let's see B-4 B-5"

"Yo Hinata!" a loud blonde yelled at her from down the hall.

"N-Naruto?" she was definitely surprised since she didn't think he knew her name. Naruto was her crush since middle school when they met but since he started to go out with his crush Sakura freshman year Hinata had given up on him.

"You have B-8 too?"

She glanced up at the sign above the door that read, "B-8" and nodded.

"Great you can sit next to me then!" he pointed his thumb to his chest smiling his usual goofy grin.

"Naruto you're an idiot" his girlfriends voice chimed in. "You have B-6 with me not B-8"

"Hello Sakura" Hinata mumbled.

"Hey" Sakura pulled Naruto away from Hinata not bothering to even try to elongate the conversation.

Hinata sighed sadly, 'so much for knowing someone in the same class as me'

The classroom doors opened and everyone stepped into their respective classes. Hinata sat in the very back by the window while other's sat in the center or front of the class. Closing her eyes for a few seconds she heard the chair next to her be pulled out. Opening her eyes she turned to meet golden eyes staring at her. 'The boy from earlier'

Now she got a good look at him and he was very handsome with his long blonde hair braided behind him and his blonde bangs ended at his chin framing his face perfectly. Somewhat tan skin, well it was a shade or two darker than her which in comparison made him look a bit tanned. He wore a black t-shirt letting his muscular arms be shown and white gloves. Hinata couldnt currently see his bottom half but she had a feeling that he was an athlete. His expression was one of amusement which shone in his golden eyes. For a second she considered him the handsomest boy she had ever seen.

"Like what you see?" he smirked at her embarrassed reaction, "I'm sure your boyfriend wouldn't like to know that you're checking me out" another smirk.

"I told you Neji's" she was cut off by a masculine voice.

"Mind if I sit here?" Both looked up to see Sasuke Uchiha standing there with a scowl on his face.

"Uh " Hinata was scared of the look that he had although she knew it wasn't directed at her but somehow toward the guy sitting at her right.

"Its rude to interrupt a lady you know that right?" the blonde stood to meet the gaze of the dark haired teen before him.

Hinata also stood waving her arms, "Hey don't fight please!"

At that moment the teacher walked in ordering everyone to sit down. Sasuke sat at Hinata's left closest to the window and the blonde sat to her right leaving her in the middle. After their work was finished the students were allowed to talk among those around them but weren't allowed to stand up and walk around. Hinata took out a book from her black backpack and was getting ready to read it when Sasuke turned to her, "So how was your summer Hinata?"

"It was good, yours?" she smiled.

"My brother moved out so I'm doing way better"

"That's good"

"So, we were never properly introduced" the blonde to her right voiced himself. "I am Edward Elric, call me Ed"

"Oh ok Ed" she smiled taking his hand and shaking it, "My name is Hinata Hyuga" she was happy she was meeting new people who were also potential friends. Sure it was only one person so far but school had just started to she didn't mind.

"And I am Sasuke Uchiha" Sasuke didn't like that the new guy was acting with Hinata. In his opinion she shouldn't be talking to other guys but then again he wouldn't say anything since she wasn't his girlfriend. Although he wouldn't say it to anyone yet he had a major crush on her since they started high school but she was too focused on his blonde best friend Naruto. When Naruto announced that he and Sakura were dating Sasuke resisted the urge to hug the blonde. He had thought that maybe she would pay attention to him but her being the only girl not to wet herself from seeing him was very dense to his advances on her and would think he was simply being polite or nice.

"I don't believe I asked" Ed crossed his arms.

"Don't be so mean to Sasuke" Hinata placed her small hand on Ed's shoulder.

The three talked a little before the bell rang. "What class do you have next Hinata?" Sasuke wanted to make this the year he went out with her so first he wanted her to recognize him as a friend then he hoped that they would gradually go out as a couple.

"I have R-2. What about you guys?" she looked at Sasuke then at Ed.

"I have R-2" Sasuke smiled.

"So do I" Ed smirked at Sasuke's frown.

For some reason Hinata felt like this day was going to be a very long day. Especially after checking their schedules and seeing that they had all classes together. It was like some sad joke that fate had for her. It wouldn't have been so bad for her if they got along but their constant arguing about little things such as who opened the door for her, who was walking too close and who would walk her to class irritated her. 'Why are they so focused on me?'

She was frustrated to say the least so when lunch time came around she was relieved that she could see Neji. Much to her disappointment though it seemed that he had A lunch while she had B lunch. She sat on her own until her two companions joined her. They were yelling and arguing about something but she quickly learned to tune them out.

"Why are you guys" she was cut off again today. This business of cutting her off was starting to really get to her. Either that or it was having to listen to her two friends argue about stupidities.

"Hinata, I'm sorry to have interrupted you but I was just so glad to see you"

Both arguing friends and Hinata looked up from their table to see a red headed guy with his lunch tray making his way to sit next to Hinata. She stood and gave him a hug, "I missed you"

Both previously arguing boys started at Hinata displaying such affection with the red head. "I missed you too" he smiled at her sitting very closely to her.

"Who's this guy?" Ed did his best to not show his obvious distaste for the guy.

"I'm Gaara, you are Edward correct?"

"Yeah how'd you know?"

"Well your grades are very good. Dare I say they are up there with mine, Sasuke's, Neji's and Shikamaru's"

"Really?" Hinata was impressed which didn't go unnoticed by Sasuke. He wouldn't admit it but even he was a bit impressed. After all the people named were considered geniuses.

"I'm impressed" Hinata admitted much to Sasuke's distaste.

Wanting to change the subject he asked the first thing that came to mind, "How did you and Gaara get so close anyway?"

"Hm?" Hinata was surprised he would even care. But then again since he was sticking to her like crazy glue which was way out of the ordinary this didn't seem so bad anymore. She swallowed the food she had in her mouth before answering, "We spent a little more than half the summer together"

"What?"

Hinata didn't know why it was so weird. After all she was friends with Gaara since grade school so it was natural for them to grow close wasn't it? "Well we spent some time traveling to other countries, I even got to see the country he comes from and wow it was beautiful"

"Hot though" Gaara admitted.

"Yeah but we went to the beach and all kinds of cool places" she smiled remembering the summer. She would never have pictured herself spending most of her summer with him since at first glance many thought him to be intimidating.

"We're still going to go this next vacation to a few places" Gaara reminded her.

At this statement Sasuke twitched and Ed smirked. It was obvious to him that Sasuke liked her and was jealous. As for his own feelings about her, well he thought she was cute but didn't know her all too well yet. The reason he argued so much with Sasuke was because it was funny irritating the crap out of him. So he did everything he thought possible to make Sasuke made or jealous which worked.

RING RING

Gaara's cell phone went off, "Excuse me" he said to Hinata mainly. A feminine voice could be heard from the other end. He tried his best to not curse in front of Hinata but after the feminine voice yelled something that even Hinata heard he cursed and hung up the phone.

Hinata was still coughing on her food and Ed was patting her back while Sasuke was too shocked at the revelation. Gaara turned to Hinata, "I'm so sorry, I.. she"

After recovering from her surprise of Gaara's sister shouting, "I knew it! You fell in love with Hinata!" she was trying to hide the inevitable blush on her skin.

Gaara tried to explain that his sister was only joking and that he wasn't in love with her while Ed couldn't stop his laughing and Sasuke resisted the urge to kill Gaara. Hinata only tried to pretend it didn't happen and was relieved when the back to class bell rung. Gaara had their fourth period class so he walked with them but since that awkward moment everything had been silent between them.
