Woot! Chapter two!! I was so happy when I got my first review.

Thank you so much! I'm glad someone likes it.

So here's chapter two!

Gaara's Point of View:

My next class I would dread for the rest of the year—History. Please tell me why I should care about the past? So the Chinese learned to etch text onto wooden blocks. Woo. Yeah. I can see myself gawking over it in 20 years. Psh.

The learning doesn't bother me as much as the constant glares and whispers from the people in front of me. Obviously, they don't like people that are different. I heard whispers of 'emo', 'goth', and 'fag', among them. One of them got up and walked over to me and sat down. I looked him over, is anyone was a freak in this room, it was him. He had brown hair, sharpened teeth that resembled those of canine and red triangular tattoos on his cheeks.

"So," he began, "you an emo fag?" I said nothing and stared at him emotionless. He got tired of me not saying anything back and walked away snickering. He sat back down and a chorus of giggles went through the group. During the whole class, the group kept glancing back and whispering. I just shrugged it all off and paid attention to the lesson, which was so stupid and boring. I couldn't wait for the bell to ring, and when it did, I was so happy. I gathered my things and went to my third period—Math.

Naruto's Point of View:

All through second period I thought about Gaara. 'I hope he's finding his way around alright.' I thought. I tried paying attention but I kept thinking about questions to ask him. I pulled out some paper and scribbled the questions down. Neji looked at me with a raised eyebrow.

"I take it you have a new student in your first?" I blushed slightly. Neji wasn't stupid, in fact, I swear he was physic.

"Yeah." I smiled and he rolled his eyes.

"So, you're making him a 20 question test?" We both looked at my paper and sadly enough, it did look like a 20 question test. I sighed and crumbled it up. Neji shook his head and smiled, "If you push yourself on too fast, he'll distance himself." The bell rang and I was left with that statement. What the hell did it mean!? I ran the sentence through my head over and over again when I got into my third period. I glanced at the door and saw Gaara pass through it.

Gaara's Point of View:

I walked through the door and almost immediately spotted Naruto. I guess it was because he was near a window and had the angelic appearance again.

"Oi! Gaara!" he called, smiling and pointing at the desk next to him. I blinked and went to sit next to him. "How was your second?" I shrugged and looked around where we were sitting; in the back un-surrounded. It was the same in first period, too, other than his friend. I looked to the front of the classroom and thought nothing more of it. I felt a piece of paper slide under my hand and I looked at Naruto and raised an invisible eyebrow, he nodded. I opened it and read silently : I feel like such an idiot, but there is so much I want to know…and since you're not too verbal, would you answer them in writing?

I sighed and figured that I might as well answer them or he might not shut up. I ran my hand through my hair and began to reply. When I was finished I passed the paper back to Naruto.

Naruto's Point of View:

I smiled at him when he passed the note back. I opened it and read it silently to myself. (a/n: the questions are really dumb. I'm sorry. I couldn't think of any good ones.)

1. How old are you? : 16

2. Why'd you move here? : I don't know.

3. Want a ride home? : No.

4. Is that your natural hair color? : Yes

5. What kind of music do you like? : Techno, industrial, drum and bass.

Now please, stop with the questions.

I was happy he replied at least. I looked at the clock and noticed it was almost time for lunch. "Oi, Gaara." I whispered. He sat his pen down hard and glared at me from the corner of his eye. "Do you want to sit with me at lunch?" Kiba turned around and smirked.

"Already asking him on a date? I wouldn't put it past you. You do hang out with Sasuke and Neji." He smirked again and laughed.

"Shut up dog boy. Like it's any of your business." My eyebrows frowned. "So will you?" I turned back to Gaara.

"I guess so.." he didn't seem too happy about it because it took him forever to gather his things when the bell rang.

Gaara's Point of View:

I followed the blonde to his lunch table.. which was outside. I didn't care that it was outside, or under a tree. It was just cold outside and I didn't exactly have a jacket with me. His friends were sitting there, one I recognized from earlier and one I've never seen before.

"Hey Sasuke! Hey Neji!" Naruto broke the silence. "I brought Gaara." Neji nodded his head and bit into his sandwich and Sasuke waved slightly. I just blinked and looked around nervously. Naruto sat down and patted a spot next to him for me to sit. I took the invitation and sat, looking down into my lap.

"Naruto, shouldn't you be wearing a jacket?" Neji questioned him.

"It isn't that cold." A shiver went through me when he said cold. My family's from a warm area, we didn't get many climate changes, so I wasn't really used to 'fall'.

"You say that now, but when you get a cold in a week, don't say we didn't warn you." Sasuke said and they both stood up and left, leaving me and the 20 question kid behind.

"They treat me like I'm five! It's so annoying. Plus, they always leave together!" He kept rambling on about everything like he's known me for years… I don't think I've ever heard someone talk so much, I was beginning to get a headache. "Gaara? Are you okay?" He asked. I had my fingers pressed to my temple, rubbing it slowly.

"I'm fine. Where's the bathroom?" I asked, hoping to get away for awhile.

"I'll show you. I need to find Neji and Sasuke anyways." He got up and threw away his food and led me to the bathroom. "I'll see ya later!" He smiled and walked off. I went into the bathroom and went to a mirror. There wasn't anyone in there, or so I thought.

"Mmm..Neji." I swallowed hard. Was that…moaning!? Jesus! I can't get a moment of peace… The breathing and the moaning in the stall behind me made me think…The guy moaned Neji's name, Sasuke and Neji left together…Oh wow. That's fun… I shook my head and left the bathroom.

Naruto's Point of View:

I couldn't find those guys anywhere! I searched all over and asked just about everyone. They hadn't seen them so I just went to my next class. 6th period finally came. I found out Gaara had photography along with Neji and I. I didn't think that Gaara would be a photographer. Neji sits next to me and Gaara's all the way across the room.

"Neji," I whispered. He turned his head slightly towards me.

"Hm?"

"Where did you and Sasuke go after lunch?" I swear his cheeks turned bright red.

"Inside, why?"

"Because, I couldn't find you guys anywhere! Usually, you guys go to the library, but noooooo, not today!" He just sighed and continued to edit photos on the computer. The bell rang and Gaara left really fast. I followed him out to the front of the school. "Oi! Gaara! Wait!" He slowed his pace. "Um…" I fumbled with a piece of paper and a pen until I wrote my number down on it.

"What is it? My father's waiting." He said softly in a monotone voice. I shoved the paper at him.

"Call me if you need to be shown around the town?" He shrugged and went to his dad's car. I sat on the steps and couldn't wait to tell Iruka about him.

Alright! Woo! Man, it looks like a lot when it's on paper… but oh well.
