Chapter 2: We meet again

"Hello, Sakura, my name is Temari, I have heard about your situation. Let's talk," She began, "Why didn't you do what-"

"I didn't feel like it," I replied. This was already too troublesome. Why does it matter if I walk listening to music?! Especially when I can still hear people?

"That's not reason enough, I'm afraid. It's school policy that you can only have one earbud in."

"..."

"Don't let it happen again."

"I'll be back here before you know it again if that's the case," I replied to her, I couldn't care less about school policy.

"Why would you say that?"

"I don't follow policies."

"That's going to have to change if you want to continue going to school here."

"If you think I want to be here, you're the one that needs a guidance counselor, not me," I said, lying back into the seat.

"Look, I know you might not like it here, but you still have to come." I leaned towards her,

"No, I could drop out, but that wouldn't look good for you, now would it?" Her eyes widened slightly as I said that, before they calmed again,

"You are not the first to threaten dropping out, for him it hit more close to home, but I doubt it would with you." Ooh, fire. Interesting, let's poke the bear.

"Oh, has Gaara been troubling you?" I took a guess to say that's who she was referring to, and it seems I was right because she looked very surprised then.

"You know Gaara? Is he the reason you did this?!" She replied, startled.

"No. I just wanted to rattle you, I see it worked."

"Don't think you can get under my skin Sakura."

"But even the fact that you say that means I am, right?" She stood before she says,

"I'm giving you a lunch detention. Come to the teachers lounge during lunch. Your punishment will be worse if this happens again," Her voice quivers slightly, and I see I have bothered her. Good. I walked out of the room and to the class that I have missed half of at this point. I don't even know what the subject was, the teacher stood and spoke to the class about something, but I didn't care. After about 5 minutes the class turned and looked at me. I looked up from the paper I was doodling on and saw the teacher's arm extended toward me with an expo marker in hand. I stood and took the marker. I then looked at the board and saw a math problem. Then the teacher turned to me and said,

"Since you haven't been listening to me this whole time... show me you don't need to." I looked at him and glared, before turning to the board and solving the math problem. He looked over my work and quietly let me go back to my seat, once seeing I was correct. I saw not only Gaara in the room, but also Ino and Sasuke. Gaara looked out the window, while Ino and Sasuke were listening contently to the teacher. I went back to not paying attention, and eventually the class was over.

It was already lunch, so I made my way to the courtyard, trying to skip detention. At least, that was what I wanted to do. The same hall monitor that put me in this mess must have found out about me and she tracked me down and pulled me into the teachers lounge. Then she left me alone in the room with only a table and chairs. I wasn't complaining though, I could plan someway to get back at Gaara after what he said earlier. A few moments later, Temari dragged in the devil himself, Gaara. This may be a good time to get revenge. Temari went back into the lunch room, and then it was just me and Gaara. He pulled out a bag and started getting out his food. I did the same, still trying to think of the best way to get back at him. Then, after remembering what Temari had said to Gaara earlier, I knew exactly what I was going to do.

"My name is Sakura," I began by saying.

"Don't care."

"Don't be so mean, Gaara." He looked up from his food.

"How do you know my name?"

"Oh, so now you care?" I replied, hoping to make him angry.

"whatever, it doesn't matter."

"Why are you in here?" I tried again.

"My sister hates me."

"I can see why." He stood and moved towards me, a slight smirk on his face.

"Why is that, shorty?" I stood up now too,

"You really want to know?" I took a step towards him.

"Enlighten me." He moved a step closer. I shoved him away, he fell to the ground startled.

"You're weak." He stood again, any playfulness gone, and punched me. Oh god, that hurt. Not a second later, Temari came storming back into the room.

"GAARA!" She grabbed him, "DO YOU NOT REMEMBER WHAT I SAID EARLIER!" He looked wide eyed at me. From behind Temari I had recovered slightly and smirked at him. He wasn't very pleased with the way things went down and struggled against Temari's hold,

"It was her! I was provoked! Look at the security recordings!" Temari looked back at me and I faked innocence. She turned back towards Gaara saying,

"Both of you, my office, NOW!"
