Sasuke stared slack-jawed at the pink haired girl announcing her presence to the class. In the back of his mind, he was checking her out, but mostly, he was angry.
"Sakura, why don't you take a seat?" said Iruka warmly. She nodded, and headed for the empty seat next to Sasuke at the back of the room. She walked slowly, smiling at Sasuke. He rolled his eyes. Naruto sent him a don't-be-such-a-jerk look.
"Who are you?" he hissed. She looked taken aback by his question.
"I just said. Haruno Sakura," she answered innocently. He scoffed.
"Where did you come from? Why were you on my estate? It's private property. Don't make me call my lawyer," he threatened.
She stared at him with those big, emerald eyes. He felt like she was analyzing his soul, picking out what she wanted and leaving the rest.
"I..can't say," she said hesitantly.
"Then get out of my house. You have three days to make alternative sleeping arrangements," he hissed. Her face fell. Then the bell rang.
Sasuke stormed out of class, slinging his backpack over his shoulder.
"Teme! Why were you so mean to the new girl?" yelled Naruto. "Wait up!" he ran after his best friend. Shikamaru and Kiba followed lazily.
"What is it, dobe," drawled Sasuke. Naruto crossed his arms.
"You were a total jerk to Pinky!"
"Actually, it's Sakura. Haruno Sakura. Nice to meet you,"
A pink haired girl forced her way into their circle.
Sasuke felt his throat turn dry.
"Nice to meet you too, Sakura-chan! I'm Naruto!" said Naruto happily. He hugged her, and she awkwardly patted his back.
"So, who are the rest of you?" she said in a friendly tone.
"Nara Shikamaru," volunteered Naruto. "and Inuzuka Kiba,"
Shikamaru gave her a lazy nod, whilst Kiba grinned.
"Welcome to Konoha High,"
"Thank you, Kiba," she smiled.
"Oh, and that's teme. I mean, Uchiha Sasuke,"
"Pleasure to meet you, Uchiha-san," she said politely. Sasuke stared at her incredulously.
You're going to play dumb? With me?
"Hn," he grunted. That was the most he could say without screaming at the infuriating goody-goody.
Stupid girl had better be out in three days.

Sakura stared at the vase of red flowers. She was sitting in the art classroom at a table all by herself. The page in front of her was empty. She couldn't find inspiration from the delicate blossoms in the vase. Suddenly, the door slammed open. A girl with long black hair and lavender eyes walked through. When she saw the class staring at her, she flushed red.
"S-s-sorry, Kurenai-sensei," she managed. The class burst into laughter, at the poor girl's expense. Kurenai-sensei sighed.
"Take a seat then, Hinata," she said kindly. The girl, Hinata, nodded gratefully.
"She's so sad," said Ino loudly. Gasps of laughter echoed throughout the classroom as her cronies laughed at her cheap jokes. Hinata blushed again, and took one of the only available seats in the room.
The seat next to Sakura.
"So, hi. I'm the new girl!" said Sakura sunnily. She extended her hand. Hinata stared at it warily.
"H-h-yuuga Hin-a-t-a," she stuttered, offering a feeble handshake. Sakura smiled at her. She was just shy.
"S-so, where do you come f-from, Sakura-chan?" asked Hinata softly. Sakura nearly didn't hear her.
"Somewhere far away," she said vaguely. Sakura stared out of the windows. Unknowingly, her pen was gliding across the sketchbook page.
"Like S-s-una?" asked Hinata.
"Yeah," Sakura replied.
"That's a l-l-o-vely doodle," pointed Hinata. Sakura looked down at her page in surprise.
On the page was a beautiful pair of angel's wings.

"Teme, are you really going out with Ino tonight?" asked Naruto confusedly. "She's so fake!"
Sasuke shrugged.
"I mean, she only wants you because you're the Uchiha.." Naruto's voice trailed off.
"Whatever makes you sleep at night, dobe," he retorted.
"Maybe if I style my hair like a chicken's butt, she'd like me.." he muttered.
"Heard that, dobe," called Sasuke.
"Yeah, yeah. See you later, teme!" said Naruto.
Sasuke got into his limo. "Home," he demanded. The driver nodded.
"Wait!" called a voice. Sasuke lowered the tinted window slightly, only to see a pink haired girl peering in.
"May I have, a, um, ride home?" she tried. He shook his head.
"You're already taking up space in my house. Walk," he said sharply. Sakura's smile faded.
"I'll be leaving soon, please! I just need to get back home," she pleaded.
Sasuke hated it when girls used big, puppy eyes.
He especially hated it when they worked.
"What home? You have no home. At least not on my estate," he snapped. Then he rolled up the window, efficiently blocking out all the pink haired girl's begging.
"Let's go. I have a date to prepare for,"
