I felt someone tugging on my shoulder; I slightly opened my eyes to see Ino in her bunny pajamas and her hair all messed up. She was getting ready to push me off the bed.

"OK! OK, I'm up!" I said, sitting up and raising my hands as if giving up.

She giggled. "Come on, Naomi. You don't want be late for your very first day of school," she said

I got up and put on my uniform. It included a white, pleated skirt; black, long socks; and brown, lace-up boots. I put on a black, long-sleeve shirt with a white, princess seam jacket with black outlines, with the pockets inside the jacket so no one could see them. There were Konoha leaves as buttons to button up the front and also on the sleeves, and a red bow knot just below the neck. I fixed my hair into a half ponytail and tied it with a red silk ribbon. I walked out to see Ino all set to go.

"You look so cute!" squealed Ino.

I smiled. "Thanks!"

"Come on! Let's go get breakfast." She grabbed my hand, then her books, and we walked to the lunchroom.

We walked in and we walked towards the same table that we sat in before. It was a booth that was sitting next to the window that gave you the view to the pool that they had here. I could only make out chairs, light posts, and the outline of the pool from here.

"Don't worry we'll go to the pool soon," said Sakura, making me look at her.

I smiled. "I was just looking outside for a minute."

"Wait till you see the football field." She smiled.

Naruto woke up and sat up to see Kiba and Neji putting on their new uniforms. He yawned, stretched his arms and scratched the back of his head. Their room was a chocolate color; Naruto's bed was beside the window, Kiba's bed was next to his, and Neji's was on the other side of the room. Naruto had brown covers with a mini-pillow in the shape of a bowl of ramen that he won on a carnival once. Kiba's bed had gray covers with a white dog pillow and Neji's had a light blue cover with the Hyuuga symbol on the headboard.

Naruto stood and went to go get ready for school. He guessed that he kinda liked this new uniform better than the last one. It was a black shirt with a red tie and then a white waistcoat with black outlines and the buttons were Konoha's leaf symbol. Over that was a white jacket with black outlines, two side pockets and leaf buttons. The pants were plain white, and the socks shoes were both black.

"Hey, Neji," said Naruto.

"Yeah?" he answered.

"What classes you got this year?"

"Same as you. Now hurry up or we're leaving without you."

"No, wait!" Naruto shouted, trying to stop his two friends from leaving him behind. He was trying to put his shoe on.

He fell on the ground and cussed a little; he put it on, then grabbed his books and walked out. He walked towards breakfast. They sat on the east side of the lunchroom in a large booth big enough to fit the entire group. Naruto looked around for the new girl but she was nowhere to be found. He sighed and hoped to see her soon.

Ino had dragged me to a tiled bathroom that had six stalls. A mirror was right above the water faucet. She was fixing her hair by brushing it. Sakura and the others decided to go on to class; they wanted to come but Ino told them to go on without us.

"Excited about your first day of school, Naomi?" she asked while putting the brush away and then got eyeliner out from the same pocket, and then started to apply some.

"Kinda. I mean, what if I don't fit right in?" I asked, looking at her as I leaned on the green wall with my books on my hands

"Don't worry," she said as she put the eyeliner in her pocket. "Something tells me that you are going to fit in." She put her hands on my shoulders with an assuring smile. "Besides, if you don't fit in, you already have us!" she said, pointing at herself. The bell rang and she gasped. "Oh my god! Run!" she said, grabbing my hand then her books. "If we run we might make it." She dragged me down the halls. I saw a door about to close. "Wait! We're here!" she said, pushing the door open.

A man with a black beard stood there and then the tardy bell rang "Almost late on your first day of school, Ino?" he asked.

"I'm sorry, we got caught up in the bathroom," said Ino.

The man sighed. "Come in already," he said.

She smiled and pulled me inside; we stood there on the doorway. I blushed twenty different colors. Did I had to make such a dramatic entrance on my first day of school? I saw Sakura sitting next to a black haired boy and that was about it for our group. I saw Ino whispering something to Asuma. He then looked at me.

"Class, we have a new student joining us today," said Asuma

Oh no, please tell me I don't have to do an introduction like in the movies! I thought.

"Her name is Yoshida Naomi." He put his hand on my right shoulder and walked me to the front of the room. I felt my face getting hot. "She'll be joining us for the rest of the year and this is her first year here. So I hope that all of you will be nice to her." Was it getting hot in here? "Is there anything you would like to say, Naomi?" he asked, looking at me.

I blushed even more, if it was possible. "I, uh…. Well… I don't know…. Uh… No, I guess?" I heard Ino sigh.

Asuma smiled at me. "OK, now you will be sitting with…." he started, looking around. I only see two tables where I could sit. One was with a brown-haired guy with black eyes and the other one was with a blonde guy with crystal-blue eyes. "Uzumaki, Naruto, since he and Ino don't work well together. Naruto raise your hand so she can see who you are."

"But Asuma-sensei, are you sure? I mean, Naruto is not exactly the sharpest person in this school," said the brown-haired guy, and there were a few chuckles.

"HEY! At least I got a higher grade than you last year in this same class!" the boy I knew as Naruto said while looking at him.

"I am aware of that, Kiba, but Naomi here had an outstanding score for this class and I think that she might be able to help Naruto."

"But if I made a bad grade, shouldn't I be sitting with Naomi?"

"No and that's final. Naomi, go and take a seat with Naruto and don't worry, they're like this all the time," he said, looking at me with an assuring smile.

I started to walk towards the table on the south side of the room. Ino went to sit with the boy I knew as Kiba but that didn't matter to me. What mattered to me right now was my clumsiness; whenever I got nervous I would become really clumsy and the stares of my classmates weren't helping at all.

Please don't let me trip, please don't let me trip, please don't let me….

I tripped with my own shoes, and there were a few chuckles and my face turned red like a tomato. I reached the table and sat down immediately, sitting my books in front of me and my hands on my lap. I let my hair fall down my shoulders and cover my face; I had to calm down before I said something embarrassing. I started to doodle whoever knows what till the end of class. We were allowed to talk as long as we stayed in our seats.

"Hi." I looked up to see Naruto, who was smiling widely at me. "My name's Naruto Uzumaki but you already know that. You're Yoshida, Naomi, right?"
"Y-yes." I answered.

"Can I ask you something?" I nodded my head 'yes' and he took my drawing of something. "What is this suppose to be?" I shrugged my shoulders "Because to me it looks like a deformed, pregnant frog."

I chuckled and took the drawing back, lightly touching his fingers. "It kinda does look like that."

"So where do you come from?"

"Sand Village."

"What school did you go to?"

"I, uh, I haven't gone to a school. All my life I've been home-schooled."

He became quiet. "Soooo you've never had any friends before?"

I chuckled. "Yes, I did, it's just that I never got close to them, due to the fact that they were busy all the time."

"What about boyfriends?"

"If I didn't had time for friends, what makes you think that I had time for boyfriends?"

He chuckled. "You're right, sorry."

Even though I just met him, there was something about him that told me that I could trust him. Never in my life had I ever felt like this. I felt that I could open up to him, tell him about me, but I didn't even know anything about him other than his name. I felt that if I looked too deep into his crystal-blue eyes, I'd be bound to drown in them.

Naruto took a deep breath and said hi to Naomi. He was surprised when she told him that she'd never had a boyfriend before, because she was really beautiful. Her creamy light skin was so soft and looked so delicate. He felt her violet eyes pulling him in; he felt as if they sucked his energy out. She was prettier than he imagined. It was so hard to believe that she'd been single all her life. The bell rang, and she gathered her things up.

"What do you have next?" he asked.

"Um, let me see," she said, taking out her schedule. Naruto crossed his fingers, hoping she had math next with Iruka-sensei. "Math with a guy named Iruka," she said and Naruto felt himself relax.
"Hey, that's where I'm going next. Mind if I walk you?"

"Um, Ino is gonna go with .e." And, as if calling her, Ino walked over.

"Ready, Naomi?" Naomi turned to look at Ino and nodded yes.

She then turned to look at him. "See ya in second period then," said Naruto, and she smiled at him and then she left with Ino.

Naruto grabbed his stuff and walked out of that class.

"NARUTO!" screamed Kiba, jumping right in front of him and making Naruto jump.

"What?" replied Naruto.

"I hope you weren't flirting with my soon-to-be-girlfriend.," Kiba said and they started to walk towards their next class. "So what did you find out about her?"

"You want her 411? Go get it yourself!"

"Aww, come on, just one thing?"

Naruto stared at him "Fine. She's been home schooled all her life. There, now bye!" said Naruto and walked straight ahead.

"Aww, come on, you got more info than that. I would tell you," Kiba said, trying to keep up with him.

Naruto let out a long sigh. "All she told me is that she's never had a boyfriend before. There. Happy?"

"Wait, she's never had a boyfriend? Then that means that I'm gonna be her first kiss. See ya, Naruto. I hope she has PE next," Kiba said, running away.

"Hate to break it to ya, but she has math next with Iruka!" shouted Naruto and he heard Kiba cuss.

I sat down in the front next to Ino, and she started to tell me how hard this class was, but I wasn't afraid. I was really good at math. Iruka then told me to go to the principals' office, and then Naruto walked in and Iruka asked him to walk me there. We left our stuff and walked towards the office.

"So how you like school so far, Naomi?" he asked, and I turned my head to look at him.

"I like it so far and I gotta say, it's nothing I expected to be," I replied.

"What, you expected it to be haunted and scary?"

I giggled. "No! I expected it to be, you know, hard to fit in. Mean girls, people bullying other people."

"Well, Tsunade-sama has a good way of keeping things under control. Here we go, this is her office," he said and I turned to look at him.

"Arigato , Naruto!"

I gave him a warm smile, turned and walked in. I saw a short-haired girl sitting in front of a computer, typing. She looked up at me.

"Hi, Naomi. Well, come on in. Tsunade has something to tell you and don't worry, it's not bad," she said and I followed her to Tsunade's office.

Naruto liked the way Naomi giggled, he couldn't help but think that she's so kawaii.

"Well, Tsunade-sama has a good way of keeping things under control. Here we go, this is her office," he said and she turned to look at him.

"Arigato, Naruto!"

She gave him a warm smile, and his heart skipped a beat and he blushed. She walked in, not seeing his blush, and Naruto stood there. He smiled. She made him feel so happy, being with her made him smile, and time seemed to have slowed down. He wanted to be her friend, but he hoped that someday they could be something much more than friends.

"Naruto, you didn't even know her that long," he said to himself.

His thoughts went to Sakura, his life-long crush. He couldn't love Naomi, he just met her an hour ago. Maybe he liked her, but as a friend. Besides he'd been working to get Sakura's attention all his life and he wasn't about to stop now, especially when he was sure that he was gonna get a date with her and then they could be happy together. Naruto smiled. Maybe Naomi could help him hook up with Sakura.

This is the school's uniform

./i/spire3/05172008/1/d/2/e/1d2efdfe5528d0_

it's the white one for both girls and boys. Unless you want it black.
