Kakashi's Question
Naruto walked to school with his face twisted in his fake smile just in case someone from school were to see him. He arrived at school right on time for once; he was not a morning person. Walking down the hall he barely noticed the familiar faces around him. When he got to his locker Gaara was already there. He was Naruto's best friend they knew just about everything about each other. Naruto didn't say anything; he knew if Gaara wanted to talk that he would. Gaara didn't say anything today, he just nodded at him and walked away. Naruto wasn't offended although they were best friends they didn't feel the need to constantly talk. They talked when it was important or they were both in a good mood.
A minute later Kiba came up to Naruto and started talking. Naruto thought Kiba was a good guy, he considered him to be about as close as you could be to him without Naruto being uncomfortable. Naruto wasn't listening to Kiba, but nodded every so often. He really wished that he would stop talking. Kiba had stopped talking and was waiting for an answer to a question. Naruto shook his head a little. "Sorry, Kiba. I just zoned a little there. What was that?" he asked in his fake happy joking voice.
"Oh, um, I was wondering if you were going to be free Friday. There's a party." Kiba said, a bit disgruntled at the fact Naruto wasn't paying attention.
"Sorry, man I gotta work that night," Naruto said, pretending to be embarrassed. He rubbed the back of his head for effect.
"You're always working," Kiba complained. "Why not take one night off? Everyone we know is going to be there."
Naruto almost wished he could, he hated seeing dog-boy down. "Sorry Kiba," he shrugged. "Can't even take one night off."
Naruto walked off then not waiting for another response from the annoyed brunette. As Naruto stepped into homeroom he was glad to see he was one of the first in the room which left his normal seat open; he sat there whenever he could. It was at the back of the classroom two seats from the wall. Naruto didn't like sitting anywhere else. If he did then he would feel the prickly stares for the other students on his back. He hated that; he hated when people stared.
Naruto sat down and grabbed his ipod out of his backpack so that he could listen to it before class started. He put on his genius playlist of 'I'm Just a Kid' by Simple Plan and started to play a game of solitaire. Naruto didn't bother looking up as the bell rang. Kakashi was always late to class, so he knew that he had a little time. After he finished his game he paused the song and turned his ipod off stashing it in his bag. Naruto again plastered a smile to his face just as Kakashi walked into the room eight minutes late reading his ever present orange book.
Kakashi always wore a mask and an eye patch. No one knew why but he did. He always wore relatively casual clothes for a teacher. But people didn't seam to care; even though the students all had to wear uniforms. Kakashi put his book down two minutes later and counted the students. "Okay, seems that everyone is here today," he announced easily. "Let's get started with the real class right away." Kakashi was not only their homeroom teacher but their Social Studies/History teacher as well.
Everyone took out their notebooks, so Naruto did the same. But as Kakashi started to lecture Naruto let his mind slip away into a daydream. Eventually he noticed that everyone in the class was staring at him. Naruto tensed under the scrutiny not knowing the reason behind their actions.
"What?" He asked loudly, trying to act like he normally did in school, stupid. The stares coming from every direction of the room were really not helping him out though.
"I asked if you knew the answer to number two," stated Kakashi, bored.
"Nope I don't," Naruto answered unashamed after only glancing at it. A few students gaped at him for his forwardness. Kakashi sighed and said, "Naruto you and I both know you have the answer, so why don't you just tell us?"
Naruto sighed. He seriously didn't need this. It was much easier to be the stupid kid who always sits in the back. He didn't want to be the weird smart kid. So, he tried one more time. "But I really don't know…"
Kakashi's one visible eye glared at him hard. He saw through the lie.
"Fine, fine! Just stop glaring at me!" Naruto said loudly still playing the fool. He looked at the board at the second question. He chose his words carefully still feeling the stares directed at him. He simply answered, "In 1932, Thailand became a Constitutional Monarchy. Specifically on the 24th of June, though Thailand was invaded by Japan during the Second World War." He still felt the stares on him. A few people were even whispering behind their hands.
Kakashi sighed and thanked Naruto for his accurate answer. Naruto dropped his fake smile and put his head on the desk. When he could take the stares no longer, he put his notebook into his bag and stood. He glared at anyone in the class that looked at him funny as he walked to the front. He hated the stares which were why most of the time he didn't answer any questions in class. He lied about his grades so that he wouldn't get any attention he found unnecessary. Kakashi looked up at him.
"Naruto please return to your seat," he said with no emotion, peeved.
"No. I'm leaving," he said lightly without another glance.
"Naruto come back before I give you detention."
This stopped the blond in his tracks. He knew if he got detention he wouldn't be able to go to work. Naruto sighed inwardly. "Fine, I'll stay," he agreed, not turning around; still managing to keep his light tone of voice.
Kakashi was slightly surprised but didn't show it outwardly. He was sure Naruto would take whatever punishment he gave him. The blond did another surprising thing- he unzipped his bag and took out a notebook. Once he had done that he made to give it to Kakashi but changed his mind heading back to his seat. A few minutes later the bell rang and everyone got out of their seats to leave.
"Don't forget to do your homework tonight!" Kakashi called after the class as they exited the room.
Naruto sat at the back of the class not having heard the bell ring staring at the yellow notebook in front of him. It was large and stuffed. He looked as if he were contemplating something big.
"Naruto," Kakashi's voice penetrated his thinking, "if you don't leave soon you could be late to your next class."
Naruto got up and headed to the front of the class. Impulsively he handed Kakashi the notebook. "Here it's the homework." Was all he said.
A minute after Naruto left Kakashi opened up the note book to the middle and his jaw fell open.
