Chapter 2 the mysterious Uchiha
Sai came back with the resident teacher in under half hour. Neji had explained to Hinata that the Resident teacher would also be their homeroom and study hall supervisor. After all the suit mates had arrived the resident teacher would come up to the suit with agreement papers with all the rules of the dorms and that you sign an agreement that you will abide by them. But the real reason the teacher would be present was when the suit mates drew up the personal contract for the rules of the suit. They were present to ensure that fights did not break out.
Sai walked in followed by a very tall man with long black hair and eyes as black as Sasuke's.
"Hello, everyone. I am Itachi Uchiha and I am your resident teacher." The man said to the group. Hinata looked over at Sasuke, wondering if he was related to the man in front of them, they certainly looked like they were related.
"Alright guys these are agreements that you will follow all the dorm rules and here are copies of the rules for you to keep." Itachi said as he passed out the papers to all the boys in the room. Hinata was watching Sasuke to see if she could guess the relation between the two, but Sasuke showed no reactions. They must be distant relatives, Hinata thought.
After several minutes of papers shuffling and pens scratching they handed back the signed agreements.
"Now, here comes the fun part, you will now come up with rules and a contract that you would like enforced within your suit."
"No one touches my stuff. For any reason." Sasuke said to start us off.
"I would appreciate it if the noise level was kept at minimum when I am here," Neji said next.
So on and so forth for the next half hour requests were rattled off as too what each person would like. When finally everyone, had put in their two cents Itachi turned to Hinata "Hiro-san do you have any requests?" Hinata had only been listening and trying remember everything had not even thought if she wanted to contribute anything to the long list of rules. And now with all attention on her, she blushed and shook her head that she did not have anything to contribute. Itachi caught on to Hinata's shy nature so he did not push the point.
"Alright then if that is it then all you guys have to do now is sign at the bottom and you can go do what you like." And with that everyone signed the paper and Itachi left.
"Hiro lets go get something to eat." Neji said after a few awkward moments of silence left in the wake of Itachi's absence.
"Hey let's all go get ramen!" Naruto shouted. Neji cringed.
"T-that w-would be g-great," Hinata said before Neji could reject the idea.
"Alright let's go Hiro." And so Naruto dragged Hinata out to enthusiastic to notice the deep red blush on her cheeks with a very annoyed Neji and excited Kiba following them out the door.
"This year is going to be so lame," Sasuke said to no one in particular.
"Quite the contrary really," Sai remarked very quietly," I expect this year to be quite exciting."
"Whatever," was all the Uchiha said before he too walked out the door to get lunch.
"Yes, very interesting indeed," and with that Sai followed Uchiha to the dining hall.
Bleep Bleep Bleep
The alarm clock was officially Hinata's enemy. She rolled over to hit the snooze button the nth teen time, except this time there was a face only a few centimeters away from hers. Suppressing a scream, Hinata is suddenly wide awake as she stares into the eyes of a very pissed Uchiha.
"Turn your fucking alarm off and get out of bed," Sasuke said in a very dangerous tone. Hinata immediately turns the alarm off as she watches the retreating back of the Uchiha as he leaves the room. Hinata quickly gets up to gather her things and makes for the bathroom.
In there she washes away the nerves the Uchiha had stirred up this morning and relaxes a bit before she gets out of the shower to get ready for the day. She comes out of the bathroom fully clothed and blushes a new shade of red as she sees Sasuke heading for the bathroom in nothing but his towel.
"Took you long enough. God you take more time in the shower then a girl."
"Hiro, don't listen to him, he's just not a morning person," Naruto said trying to encourage his new friend. Unfortunately the only thing Uzamaki manages to do is cause Hinata to turn to a darker shade of red that also has yet to be named.
"You know maybe you should go see a doctor about this fever you keep getting," Naruto said.
"I still maintain that you and your cousin are trannies," Sai remarked.
"I HEARD THAT TANAKA!" Neji yelled from his room.
"At least I don't have to share a bathroom with you."
"W-where i-i-is Kiba-san?" Hinata asked as she noticed that he was not up getting ready for school.
"That idiot is still out like a baby. Honestly I don't think anything short of an explosion will wake that sleeping dead," Sai said in an almost wistful tone.
"S-s-shouldn't w-we try to w-wake him?" Hinata asked worriedly.
"You can try if you like tranny."
"STOP CALLING HIM THAT OR I WILL BUST YOUR FACE TANAKA!"
"I revoke my earlier statement, not only are you and your cousin trannies but he is your lover."
"THAT'S IT TANAKA!" But before Neji could come out and kick Sai's ass, the latter left to the dining hall to get breakfast. Hinata however went into Sai and Kiba's room to try and wake the wild boy up. She would feel awful if he was late on the first day of school.
"K-kiba-s-san? Are y-you a-awake?" She was met with a loud roar of snores. "Kiba-s-san y-you n-need t-to g-get up. I-It's the f-first day o-of school." Hinata leaned over Kiba's sleeping form as she said this and was suddenly swept into an embrace that nearly brought her into contact with his lips. Hinata was struggling not to faint while still trying wake the boy up. "Kiba!" Hinata said with a slightly higher and louder voice.
"Hey blaby I can shof you a doog tim," kiba mumbled in his sleep. He started to open his eyes and when he saw who was actually in his arms he came to a complete and fully awake human and released Hinata faster than a hot coal. "S-s-sorry Hiro. I didn't know you were in here."
Several awkward seconds later…"Don't tell anyone about this, ok?" Hinata nodded and left the room. Never again would she brave trying to wake a sleeping boy. However leaving the room did not stop the red that stained her face. Sasuke had finished his shower and was passing by the door Hinata had just come out of from an embarrassing situation only to face a half naked Sasuke. This was the last straw. Hinata did not try to prevent the darkness from over taking her she just let it come.
She heard voices above her a slowly opened her eyes to see Neji standing over her.
"Hiro, you're awake. Thank goodness. I was afraid you would not wake up in time to eat breakfast. Get up. Get up. Let's go." Neji said to her. She looked over to see Kiba and Naruto waiting by the front entrance hall for her and Neji.
Homeroom #409 B.
Hinata shared a home room class with Naruto, Sasuke, Sai, and Kiba. There were four other boys in the class but she had not met them yet. One was staring off into space as if he didn't want to be here, another was talking to Kiba and Naruto. He was wearing large sunglasses and had a high collar on his jacket. The third boy was talking to the bored looking one and the last one was in the corner focusing on his hands. Hinata had chosen a seat in the back, along with Sasuke and the staring at hands guy. They each were separated by a few seats, to Hinata's relief. Hinata figured this room would have more people in it but homeroom must operate a little different then regular classes.
Itachi walks through the door holding a folder in his hands and makes his way to the desk. He sets the folder down and looks out at the boys (and one girl) in his class.
"Alright everyone. I trust none of had any problems this morning. If any of you need to know where a class room is just come talk to me and I would be happy to give you direction. With that here are your official schedules," Itachi said as he passed out papers to everyone in the room.
"For the most part everyone will have the same core classes although you maybe paired with upper classmen in your electives. Your study Hall period is more of a demographic placing so you will be with boys you live close too. You will never have to come to home room again after today so make sure you remember to go to your first class tomorrow. I don't want to see any of you here tomorrow. Alright without further ado here are you schedules."
Itachi began moving around the room handing out schedules to everyone. When he came to Hinata's desk he paused and leaned in," if I may see you after school today I need to speak with you about a certain matter." And he continued to move on.
G-great first day a-and a-already I'm in t-t-trouble, Hinata thought. A few minutes later and the bell rang. Hinata looked at her schedule:
1st Period-Kurenai Yuhi-English 8:00am- 9:55am RM208
2nd Period-Asuma Sarutobi-History 10:00am- 12:00pm RM305
Lunch 12:00pm-12:55pm
3rd Period-Deirdara Iwagakure-Computers 1:00pm- 2:30pm RM108
Study Hall-Itachi Uchiha 2:35pm-3:45pm RM207
This was her schedule for the first day the next day would follow the same timeline but with different teachers and classes. Math with Kakashi Hatake, Biology with Sasori Sunagakure, and P.E. with Gia Maito. Study Hall remained the same.
As Hinata was looking around to try to get here bearings so she could find her classroom Naruto and Kiba jumped her from behind causing her jump out of her skin. "Hey Hiro since we have all the same core classes, we should walk together don't cha think?" Naruto exclaimed.
"O-okay that w-would b-be good," Hinata said, inwardly grateful that she would not have to find the class by herself.
"Kiba what do we have first?"
"English with Kurenai Yuhi-sensei!" Kiba said.
"Man the hot teacher? Alright! Don't worry Hiro. Yuhi-sensei is really nice and man does she have a body. It is not hard to look at her the entire time."
Hinata was not really listening. Instead she was trying to remember where they were going. If she ever needed to get back to the classroom by herself she wanted to make sure she knew the way.
Upon entering the classroom Hinata saw a very pretty woman with crimson eyes greeting the students as they came in. Hinata could see why Naruto and Kiba were so excited to be on her class. Yuhi-sensei wore fitted but appropriate clothing, and Hinata could not help but be a little jealous that she got to dress like a girl in a boys school. Hinata walked in and headed for the back but was stopped by Naruto and Kiba. They insisted that she sit in the middle of the class with them. Unable to break the spell of Naruto's pleading eyes Hinata consented.
"Class settle down," Yuhi-sensei said," I know you are all excited to be but we need to get started. This year we are going to read three novels and write three different types of essays. I am going to mix them up so that we don't get tired of what we are currently doing. During this semester we will read Weathering Heights, Gone with the Wind, and Pride and Prejudice. You will write an informative, persuasive, and a story telling essay. My goal is that the book you read before the essay will dictate you subject."
You could hear the groans coming from everyone except Hinata. She was looking forward to reading the books. It did help that they were all girly books, but Hinata loved to read in general. And she was a good writer, so this class would not be that hard.
Class ended and Naruto, Kiba, and Hinata went to their history class with Sarutobi-sensei. Nothing exciting happened in this class that is truly note worthy. Except that Naruto was scolded for aiming a spit wad at Kiba.
Finally it was lunch. Hinata followed Naruto and Kiba to the dining hall and immediately sought out Neji. She found him sitting at a table at the far end, where they had breakfast to be precise. Hinata quickly got in line so she could get a try to load with the food they had out for lunch. Hinata grabbed a tuna fish sandwich and a bag of pretzels and headed for Neji's table. When Hinata got there she noticed was sitting with him. When Lee looked up and saw Hinata coming towards the table he stood and waved his arm wildly to get her attention right before Neji grabbed him and pulled him back down.
"Hello, Hiro-san. It has been a glorious day. How were your classes?" Lee asked as Hinata was taking her seat.
"I-I-It has been a-an interesting d-day," Hinata replied carefully. Naruto and Kiba appeared behind her and greeted Lee and Neji. Lee, Naruto, Kiba, and occasionally Neji discussed the classes they were taking this year, who was in the class, what they had next, etc, etc. Hinata was perfectly content just listening to the other guys talk. Before she knew it lunch was over and she was headed to her computer class with Iwagakure-sensei. From paying attention to where her other classes where located Hinata was able to figure out the numbering system and was able to locate her class fairly easily. When she got in she headed for the back and noticed that Sasuke was on the other side of the back row. Hinata wondered briefly if she should sit next to him but he glared t her so she sat right where she was.
Hinata's mind wondered off into fantasies of if Naruto knew that she really was a girl and what would happen if he liked her, when she noticed someone was sitting next to her. She nearly jumped when she noticed him.
"You know your timid nature does not help your case tranny."
"I-I-I-I a-am n-n-not a-a-a t-t-t-tranny," Hinata tried to say with as convincing a voice as she could. Needless to say that attempt failed.
"Then if you are not a tranny, you must have a very small dick form lack of testosterone. You behave more like a girl then some girls I've met."Hinata opened and closed her mouth several times not quite sure how to respond. "This must mean you have a small dick?"
"N-n-n-n-n-n-no!" Hinata said while blushing a deep red. "A-a-a-and I-I-I d-do n-not t-think t-this c-c-conversation is a-appropriate." Hinata sat back hoping that would end the conversation there.
"Huh, maybe you're just a prude?" Sai seemed to say more to himself than anyone else. But before Hinata could say anything the teacher walked in.
"Alright class welcome to computer skills class. I am your teacher Deidara Iwagakure. But you all can call me Deidara…" the rest of what the teacher said that was on Hinata. She was too busy worrying if Sai had figure out her secret or not.
Finally, the last class of the day, but not the last hurdle. She still had to talk to Itachi after the class. Study hall was the time to do homework and such so that the rest of the day could be spent in free time. Apparently the school's philosophy of students having a lot of free time makes them more productive. Either way, it was the first day of school so there was minimal homework. There were books and some quiet games in the room for those who finished early.
Hinata's entire suit was there and it looked like everyone form Lee's suit Hinata guessed. After some time Neji sat beside her and told her who everyone was. The lazy guy with the pineapple head was Shikamaru Nara. The guy with the tattoo on his head was Gaara Subaka. The senior with them was Gaara's older brother Kankuro. The fat guy with the bag of chips was Chuoji Akamichi. And last but not least the guy with the sun glasses was Shino Aburama. Hinata committed all the names to memory in case she ever needed it in the future. All the guys were playing poker while Hinata only watched. Naruto and KKiba had asked if she wanted to join but she declined since she did not know how to play and figured even if she did she would be no good anyways.
At 3:45 pm the bell rang signaling the end of class. Hinata just sat at her desk till everyone left. Neji waited for her but she told him to go ahead, she gave the excuse of wanting some alone time. Neji nodded and left. After making sure he was gone Hinata approached Itachi who was sitting at the front desk.
"U-uchiha-s-sensei?" Hinata squeaked to make her presence known.
"Please, Hiro-san call me Itachi. Why don't you come with me to my office?" Itachi got up from the desk and made his way to door located on the left side of the room.
Itachi held the door open for her as she walked in. "Please take a seat." Hinata sat in the very comfy chair in front of the desk and waited for what Itachi wanted to talk about.
"It should be safe to talk in here Hinata-sama. So how was your first day?"
Hinata blinked several times before his words registered.
"Y-y-you k-k-now who I-I-I am?"
"Yes, I do and that is why I have called you in here. Listen Hinata, I am here to keep an eye on you. "
"W-why?"
"I cannot tell you that right now. But listen I need you to do me a favor. If anyone finds out who you really are or that you are a girl you need to tell me, Deidara, or Sasori immediately. Okay?" Hinata's were as wide as saucers, to flabbergasted to speak.
"They also know who you are as does the principle. We are the only ones besides your cousin." He paused to let his word sink in. "Your life could depend on you informing us if anyone else finds out ok? Promise me you will tell me or one of the others that if someone finds out you will tell." Hinata could only nod her head.
"B-b-b-b-but w-wh-what i-s-s th-th-this a-about?" was the only thing Hinata did not understand.
"Listen, I can't give you details right now for your own safety and sanity. But I can tell you that if you have any problems or you feel unsafe for whatever reason you can come to one of us for help. Understand?" Hinata nodded her head though she was not sure.
"Ok then, you can go enjoy the rest of the afternoon." Hinata got up from her seat and headed for the door but paused at the thresh hold, and turned to face Itachi.
"Yes, was there something else?"
"W-what w-w-will you do i-i-if s-someo-o-one f-finds out?"
"Don't worry about that. We will handle it for you."
Hinata nodded her head in understanding as she turned to leave.
W-what h-has my life b-become? Was all Hinata could think as she made her way back to the suit.
