It was the last class until lunch and Sakura shared it with Gaara and the others. It was Literature/Writing and was taught by Jiraiya-sama, who was famous for writing romance novels. Romance novels that went in-detail…

The seating was the same in every class, except Science and History of course, and as soon as the students sat down their teacher started talking.

"I am your teacher, Lord Jiraiya, as most of you know." He looked at Ino, Sakura, Hinata, Sasuke, and a few others. "I teach literature and writing, both of which will involve long essays and reports. And your first is to read Pride and Prejudice. I want a 10 page report in two weeks." He handed out the thick book and sat back down in his desk, pulling out a book with a "No one under 18" warning sign on it.

The whole class was groaning at the

familiar sight of the prohibited book, all of the students who were there last year remembered him reading the book…and giggling. Sakura and Hinata remembered Ino marking their literature teacher as: "One of the most perverted teachers I have ever encountered. Not to mention gay…come on? Giggling?"

"So, who has actually read this book before?" Sakura asked quietly, in hopes their teacher would not hear her. Not a chance.

"Miss Haruno! I suggest that you not talk in my classroom!" Ino rolled her eyes. "Aw, come on old man! Don't be like that to my Sakura-chan!"

That wasn't Ino.

That was Naruto, one of the more…energetic boys at Hokage High. He always liked Sakura, even after the incident, he didn't much like Zaku anyways.

"Boy! I suggest you not yell at your teacher!" Jiraiya yelled at the blonde, but everyone who was there last year knew the Father-Son relationship between the teacher and student.

But

Back to Sakura considering the fact that she wasn't paying attention to the fight between the other two.

"Psst. Psst. Gaara?" He looked angrily at her after she kept poking his left shoulder.

"Yes?" He answered coldly.

"Will you be my Darcy?" She giggled, almost in the middle of the book already. Ino rolled her eyes at her pink-haired friend's comment.

"No." Of course being Gaara he had no clue whatsoever the young girl spoke of and frankly didn't care that she was capable of speech.

"Hmph." Sakura went back to reading the large book while Ino started speaking with the cold boy.

"So Sakura is already annoying you." Ino's full time smirk widened a little at the thought of hooking up Sakura and Gaara.

He nodded, trying desperately to read the old, dusty book.

"Do you want to know a secret?" Heshook his headno, but she continued. "Sakura is a fighter. She has a black belt in Judo and

a few other styles. She was almost arrested last year for fighting. Zaku can't walk with his left leg. He was arrested. His girlfriend, Kin, is now in a mental institution with her brother, Dosu."

He was shocked to say the least. And his sister didn't warn him of the psycho female!

Ino decided he needed more. "She fights weekly with Naruto, Neji, Tenten, Hinata and a few others in this school. Even that one guy you beat a few years ago. Rock Lee. I myself do fight, but I got lazy after tying with her in combat."

"So in other words -" "Yep! I quit. Especially after my boyfriend beat me. He's a lazy bum that Shikamaru." She smiled brightly before smirking yet again.

The bell rang.

As everyone stood up Ino strolled over to Gaara, whispering in his ear. "Don't be scared of her. It makes her sad. And us angry." She emphasized "us" to make a point: There we more of them.

So he decided to ask, being

Gaara he added a small threat, of course. "Tell me. Who is Us?"

She smiled. "There are secrets in this school. Most revolve around the pink-haired one."

He rolled his eyes, never caring much for secrets.

Lunch was a simple hierarchy. 1st table sat the "Cool" People. Next sat the "Servants/Wannabes". And so on until you reached the "Others".

They included Kankuro, Sakura, Ino, Hinata, and Gaara. Since Gaara and Kankuro arrived with Sakura they were placed in the same category as her.

Did I mention that the "Others" table was next to the trash can where kids "Accidentally" dump trash on them? Guess not…

"Why do we sit here?" Kankuro asked grumpily, folding his arms over his chest.

"Because we sat here last year." Sakura replied, eyeing the older boy warily as she noticed his hand was inching towards her.

She smacked his hand and glared as he shrugged

simply. "Well. I say we move." Ino smiled and nodded with Gaara, already heading for the popular table.

"She's been wanting to go back to that since she moved to this table with me and Temari last year." Sakura giggled, but stopped as she noticed that some of the other seniors (Popular) were standing in a very menacingly way - Shikamaru, Ino's boyfriend, was already there, calming the blonde down. Not that it helped…

Sakura and the other's rushed to her side as soon as one of the kids smacked Ino. "You dirty bitch!" Was the exact phrase they used.

Sakura threw the first punch though, well, backhand for like. Straight for the girl's face - Landing. She turned calmly towards her friend. "You OK?" Ino nodded.

"Fine. You totally backhanded her." And with that she started laughing hilariously, making Shikamaru escort her out of the cafeteria.

"Do not hurt my friends. Neji, Naruto, even you Sasuke. I expect more from

you guys." Her eyes held sorrow as the blue, black, and white eyes stared at her.

She turned sharply and exited stage forward with Hinata, Gaara, and Kankuro following.

She ran out the door to see her friends.

"Are we going to skip the first day of school?" Ino deadpanned as Sakura nodded. "I'll go back in and cover for you 5." Shikamaru mumbled, he cringed as he heard Ino yell, "Lazy ass!" He just shrugged.

Ino nodded her head in disappointment, her boyfriend was so difficult at times! Sakura patted her friend's back, trying to hold back her giggles.

"OK! Where should we go?" Ino perked up suddenly.

"The Dojo!" Sakura groaned. "But I don't wanna'!" "We're going." Gaara stated from behind Sakura, scaring her into fits of heavy breathing.

"Gaara! Don't scare me like that!" She yelled, almost threatening to hit him, but stopped, remembering her supposed calm attitude that she was supposed to

show around others, but she shrugged it off, Gaara and her were friends, right?

"All right! I'll drive!" Sakura yelled in a high pitch, whicheveryone thought was uncapable from the small girl. "No!" The usually calm Hinata and the always loud Ino yelled in perfect unison (Obviously practiced from saying that phrase more than once to the pink-haired one).

Gaara and Kankuro just looked…confused. And very confused at that. "Wha'- what's wrong with Sakura-chan's driving?" Kankuro asked timidly, afraid of what would happen if he spoke up.

"Are you kidding me?" Ino rhetorically asked. "She gets the Brake and Gas pedal wrong all the time! She barely knows how to Reverse! And-" "We get the point." Sakura sighed as she cut off her friend.

"I'll drive. I just got my license, remember?" Kankuro sweat-dropped as Sakura glared daggers at him. "I've been the victim of your driving…" She mumbled as they headed towards Temari's jeep, Kankuro had

to drive that to school before lunch because his Porsche was in danger of brats. So the jeep it was!

But…the jeep can only fit 3, blame Temari who took out a seat in the back (They aren't stuck together, the seats) to have an excuse not to drive a few other, specific, people.

Kankuro and Ino sat in the front, not like they wanted to sit so close. Ino would rather be a hundred miles away from the painted boy.

Now…the Difficulty was Sakura and Gaara. Both wanted the seat in the back and were willing to fight for it.

Hinata had already politely refused the seat, not wanting to face the wrath of the green-eyed ones.

Right now the argument was taking a dangerous toll…

"I deserve the seat! I helped Ino!" Sakura waved her arms frantically around herself, making everyone move away. Ino sweat dropped, a rather dead expression on her beautiful face as she spoke, "I thought you helped me because you're my

friend…" "I am." Sakura answered sharply before adding, "But if I can get something out of it then it was worth it!"

"Well I don't care what you did. I'm taking the back seat." The redhead ran to the seat, Sakura followed. The door was open and the lone seat right there, waiting for someone to sit in it.

Gaara sat in the comfortable chair first with a speedy pink-haired female following. She jumped and…

Landed in his lap with an "Oomf."

Everyone, other then Gaara, looked at her oddly as she refused to move, even with Gaara trying to literally shove her off of him. "Uhm. OK! Everyone get in and Kankuro?" He looked at the blonde, "Drive fast." She whispered, he nodded with a grin.

"I always do."

Now Review and more will come.
