NEW CHAP. ENJOY
Disclaimer: Ugh, tired of saying it.
...
Today was the day. Sakura turned over groggily slapping her hand down on her alarm clock.
"Sorry I can't see you off to school, but you know how I work." Her father came into her explaining, tugging on his work jacket.
She seemed all of a sudden awake.
"But, you usually don't work like this til the weekends." Sakura said, frowning and sitting up.
"I know, but they are cutting back on workers and I have to pull bigger shifts for a while. I'm so sorry. I should be home before you go to sleep so I hope maybe we can have a chat?" He exclaimed coming closer to hug her. She sighed in understanding.
"Okay. I'll see you tonight. Love you." She said.
"You too baby girl." Then he walked out. After hearing his car pull out she got out of bed and stretched.
...
After taking a long, refeshing shower Sakura pulled on a black short sleeved shirt, faded grey pants with a chain belt, and black and silver shoes. She brushed her slightly damp pink hair and began to get nervous.
She was now a freshman and she didn't even know anybody. She had mostly all honors classes but still...She was nervous.
Shaking it off she put on her favorite good luck necklace-it said "wisdom"- and bracelet/ring set.
Not too soon after, she sat down to eat a light breakfast and headed out the door. The school wasn't too far away. She actually passed the back of the school on her way to school plenty of times. Well, here goes nothing. She thought.
...
"Sakura Haruno?" The secretary said trying to affirm. She nodded.
"I'm Shizune. Come to me for anything okay?" She gave Sakura a friendly, welcoming smile that was simply contagious. Sakura smiled back.
"Thank you. I will."
"And here is your schedule. And locker assingment. I'll bring you to your first class. From there, I'm pretty sure, it should be easy to find yourself around." Shizune began, signaling Sakura to come, leaving the office. Another lady sat in Shizune's seat, problably a fill-in for the moment.
...
"So here is your locker. Closest to your first class." Shizune informed pointing to the sleek, red locker being a little taller than Sakura. Sakura looked up then down to see the matching numbers. Shizune gave another smile leading her down the hallway.
"And here is your homeroom class. Mr. Hatake being your teacher. Any questions or comments?" She asked knocking on the door before Sakura could answer. Sakura shook her head.
"Pretty lockers." Was all, and the door opened.
...
"Ah, welcome Ms.Haruno right? Great, not late yet. You can find a seat anywhere and the bell should ring shortly." Mr. Hatake stated. She chose a seat fourth row to the front. She didn't like being right in front, not far in the back either.
Shortly after, a small group of teens likely to be 16 and 17 came in noisily. The blonde of the group laughed.
"Kakashi! I'm surprised you're here on time. Early in fact. Keep this up for the rest of the semester and I'll have to buy you a new volume of Icha Icha." He said loudly with a laugh. A onyx haired guy grunted.
"Shut up. Haven't you noticed he does that every year? Dobe."
"Whatever Teme." The blonde said. Mr. Hatake laughed.
"I might have to take you up on that deal Naruto." said Mr.Hatake, but the blonde called him Kakashi. It must be his first name.
The sat a couple rows behind herself conversation pretty busy.
"Hey. You. What's your name?" Naruto asked Sakura. She wasn't the only new one in the room so she wasn't sure if he meant her.
"Me?"
"Yeah, you? Im Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto boasted.
"Sakura." She said back timidly.
"How did your mom pick a name so perfect?" Naruto asked eyes gleaming. Sakura's eyes lowered. My mom. When Naruto noticed her gaze saddened he quickly asked.
"What's wrong. She not in your life or something?" The onyx eyed one grunted again.
"Dobe." He said, but then the bell rang. More students came filed in while Kakashi was hidden behind a book most likely that Icha Icha Naruto mentioned.
"Anyway Sakura, nice to meet you. This is Sasuke-teme, this is Hinata, Shikamaru, and this is Ino." Naruto introduced. Hinata, the white eyed one gave a small wave. Shikamaru murmured something and Ino didn't even acknowledge her. Neither did Sasuke.
Kakashi let the class chat for a while seeing it unimportant to start anything on the first day. After a while he got up and began to tell them what he did and didn't expect for the rest of the year. And things to expect.
...
Sakura was on her way home when someone called her name. She barely heard it ane she turned around but didn't see anybody though. Shaking her head she continued her walk home.
Once there, she grab a purple soda out of the refriderator and sat at the kitchen table.
Her first day wasn't too bad.
And it wasn't too good either.
Sakura sipped her drink and fingered her necklace. Today was a half a day but tomorrow her she had to face lunch. She was only a freshman so she couldn't leave campus to eat. That would be great. She could sit alone but it doesn't really matter. She didn't find talking too fun most times.
Yep, this year is most-likely going to head down hill fast.
...
Second chap. Not too long, but I'm trying because, personally, I love long chapters. But, it's easier said then done. Anyway, I'm doing another right now, because, I'm in my mode.
Not a rose
