Chapter 2

"Naruto, why aren't you up already?" Gaara asked irritably to himself and his answer was a particularly loud snore from Naruto. Gaara's eye twitched in annoyance. It was 7:15 and they had to leave in five minutes to make it to school on time. An evil smirk came across Gaara's face as he spotted a glass of water on Naruto's night stand. He had to use all his will power not to cackle as he grabbed the water. Gaara tipped the glass over the sleeping boy's face and watched as Naruto's eyes flew open. Naruto quickly stood up to get away from the cold water and slammed his head on the ceiling. He fell back down onto his bed clutching his head that was in pain and tears about to leak from his eyes.

"Ow, ow, ow. Gaara its your fault if I have a concussion now you know. Oowww!" Naruto whined glaring at Gaara.

"Poor Naruto you want me to kiss it and make it better?" Gaara whispered in a baby voice and leaned forward with his lips puckered at Naruto. Naruto shrieked and backed away as fast as he could. He forgot though that his bed didn't have anything solid on the other side and fell off the other end onto the floor. "Your to easy." Gaara smirked at him then left the room yelling over his shoulder " Grab a hoodie and lets go or we'll be late."

"Wait don't I have time to get dressed? Or eat?"

"No, lets go."

"Yes, mother." Naruto grumbled.

"Naruto, why do you have plaid pajama pants on?" Ibiki, Naruto and Gaara's first period teacher asked.

"Sorry, sir. I would have put other clothes on but I would've been late and so I only had time to grab this hoodie.

"Fine, go sit down and be quit"

Naruto ran to his seat because honestly Ibiki scared him. Ibiki was never really mean but he was strict and he was good at reverse psychology and getting things out of a person. He didn't allow anyone to talk in his class or you get detention. There was only three people Naruto knew in this class and they were Gaara, Kankuro, and stupid stuck-up Sasuke. Kankuro is Gaara's brother and he also has a sister named Tamari. Kankuro and Tamari were part of this little group of friends that both Naruto and Gaara weren't part of. Beside Gaara's siblings the group consisted of Sakura, Ino, Lee, Ten Ten, Neji, Shikamaru, Shino, Choji, Hinata, and we can't forget mister popularity Sasuke.

Naruto and Gaara weren't part of the little group and both really didn't care they had each other and that was enough. They were very different from the little group of people unlike them they both were outcast hated by society. Gaara hated his brother and sister because of their father, he beats the shit out of Gaara but is as kind, as kind can be to Tamari and Kankuro. They're spoiled and treated like royalty and don't know the things their father does to Gaara. Both Tamari and Kankuro think that Gaara has a really bad anger problem so they ignore him. People at school see this and so they figured if he isn't good enough for his family to care about then why should we. In third grade when Naruto came to Gaara's school and befriended him they shunned Naruto to but Naruto didn't care because he was use to it.

Naruto saw a note on his desk and opened it to read it.

Did you get your homework done

Naruto grabbed his pen out of the rings of his agenda and started writing back.

Yeah I had nothing better to do and plus Iruka was on my case saying he doesn't want me to fail

Does he know you don't want to fail because that means another year in this place

No, and I don't mind him annoying me about it because it shows he cares

we got a minute till the bell rings

Naruto looked up at the clock to see if Gaara was right and sure enough he was. Naruto crumpled the note in his hand and put his books in his carrying bag then waited for the bell. RING. And the halls were filled with students. Even though Gaara and Naruto both had lockers they rarely used them because they hated being in the hallway with all the other students. So since they did have binders and books they needed for class they carried one strap bags around all day, the bags kinda look like laptop bags. Naruto's was just orange and blue and Gaara's was black with the kanji symbol for love written on it here and there. The bags made it so they weren't late for class and so they didn't have to put up with being around all the other people. Just as they were about to enter the science room for there second period class Ino rudely pushed by them to get in the room with Sakura following right behind her.

"Ever heard of ladies first" Ino sneered at them.

"I don't see any ladies do you Gaara"

But before Gaara could answer Ino hmmped, turned on her heel and walked away from them. 'Why are they here they aren't in this class?' Naruto thought to himself with a frown. But he didn't really dwell on it 'cuz he didn't really care.

"Hey, Gaara come here quick will you?" Gaara and Naruto head a voice yell. Turning toward the voice they saw Tamari yelling to them to get their ass's over to her. Standing behind her were Sakura and Ino both who were talking to each other about who knows what.

"Gaara, I'm going to Sakura's party tonight and I was wondering if you could let dad know that I won't be home tonight. I'd ask Kankuro but he's going too." Tamari asked happily when both boys were standing in front of her.

"No."

"But why not?" Tamari whined, not effected a bit by Gaara's cold tone towards her. She knew her brother didn't like her and even though it saddened her she didn't show it.

"I'll be at Naruto's this weekend like every other weekend so I won't be home either." Tamari signed in defeat and walked away with Sakura and Ino right behind her.

Science class was like usual for the boys, both sleeping and sometimes listening. Asuma the teacher was lazy and didn't really do much in class and didn't care if students slept or paid attention. He rally assigned homework because that meant more work for him. Third period went like second because they slept in social studies also.

There was only two things about school that the boys didn't mind. The school gave the highschoolers a ten minute break between third and fourth period. The other thing about school they liked was the half hour lunch break. Both break and lunch gave them time to get away from everyone and hang out on the roof.
