Don't own Naruto, but I do own a laptop in which I'm writing on!

Chapter Threeeeee

~Friday~

I quickly rushed to my last hour, Sakura almost made me late, I was talking to her.

She happened to be paired up with my cousin, Neji, in choir. I knew that he wasn't going to pick me, so I'm glad he picked someone I could handle.

Even though Sakura and I had the same class, she always went around the school before this hour to give a snide comment to Ino, but that doesn't bug me, I don't really like Ino anyway.

I ran in right when the bell rang, catching my breath, I went to the corner chair I always sat in.

"Alright class! Listen up!" I looked up and smirked at my favorite teacher, Kurenai, as she began to instruct dance class. Yes, dance class. But, since this school has a wonderful female principle, only girls are allowed to take it. I can't tell you how many times Naruto tried to sneak into this class this year. I giggled at the memory.

I tuned back into the teacher when I heard my name. "Yes ?" She gave me a knowing smirk and began to repeat herself.

"I was just telling the class the plans for the final dance recital before I noticed you were dozing off on me." She smirked at me again. "Was I boring you?" I turned red.

"No! Of course-" I looked at the door as Sakura started to sneak into class.

"Of course…?"

"Oh sorry! Of course you weren't! I was just thinking." I looked down shyly when Sakura gave me a thumb up and began to sneak to her seat. Kurenai quickly turned around, knowing that Sakura was there the whole time.

"And don't think you're getting off the hook Mrs. Haruno! I'll see you after class!" Sakura let out a loud groan while the class erupted in giggles. Sakura sent me a glare when I began to giggle too.

"As I was saying…" The giggles instantly came to a stop, and my undivided attention went back to the teacher, and hopefully the rest of the class did the same.

"For the final dance, you guys are to make it yourselves. You may have a partner to be included in this dance, but it will have to be someone who wants to do it with you. You may have two girls and two guys, as long as the two girls are in the same class." She looked up at us, and I broke into a smile and turned to look at Sakura, who gave me the same glance.

"Now, I'm giving you guys the rest of class to think of what you want to do, and remember, it has to express something, or a feeling." The class nodded to her and we stood up from our seats to sit next to the partners a few of us picked by a simple glance to each other.

I quickly walked over to Sakura, and sat down next to her; she already had a notebook in hand, and was quickly writing down some ideas.

"Flowers?" I shook my head no.

"Happiness?" Again, no.

"Pink?" I scowled, and again no. Sakura giggled at me, but crossed it out anyway.

"Warmth?" I shook my head again. Sakura let out a sigh and set down her notebook.

"Then you think of something!" I nodded my head to her, and thought of something that we both might like.

"We can get to that later, I'll think of something, how about partners?" Sakura gave me an evil smirk.

"Well Naruto still owes me from when I hooked him and Ino up for Homecoming, so I'll collect my pay as him being my partner." I giggled at her, yes I had feelings for Naruto, but I know that he won't ever notice me.

"But I thought you were going with Sasuke to the dance?" She smirked at me happily.

"Oh! I am! But he's not really the dancer, and he's already mad that he has to sing for the dance. He's madder at his brother for giving the final idea to Guy, so now he has to sing his final with Deidara. Apparently his brother was supposed to pick them, but he picked some girl. Sasuke was furious; he blew up my phone with text messages for the rest of the day." My eyes widened at her.

"What?!"

She nodded, confirming that she was telling the truth.

"I have the text's to prove it!" I waved my hand at her and looked down.

"…Okay."

"Hinata, are you alright?" I shook my head at my concerned pink haired friend.

"…His brother…is grouped with me for the final songs." I looked up to see a shocked Sakura.

"WHAT!" I quickly shushed her when the class fell silent and stared at the two of us.

"Why didn't I know this?!" Sakura questioned in a accusing whisper.

"I-I thought everyone knew…" Sakura shook her head. I shrugged my shoulders at her and looked down.

"Ino invited me to the Night Bash." I looked up at her to see her staring out the window. "There's a rumor that Itachi is bringing a date there. Is it you?" I shook my head at her in shock.

"…Oh." She looked down sadly and met my eyes again. "Well, I'll let you know if anything happens." I nodded my head at her and looked down in thought.

RING

I heard a groan from Sakura as she was called to the front by the teacher. I smiled at her. "I'll wait for you Sakura." She saluted to me and I walked out. I turned around quickly and opened the door I just walked out of. "I'll be in the courtyard with the pond!" Before I heard a reply I closed the door and headed towards the doors to the courtyard.

Ignoring the giant mass of students that continued to crash into me in the halls, I finally reached the little space in front of the door. When I pushed open the doors and stepped outside, I took a deep breath of the spring air. I rushed to the flattest rock next to the pond and plopped down onto it. This was my spot. Not even the upperclassmen touch it.

I pulled out a notepad and a pencil and sat there, the pencil poised, ready to write whatever comes into my mind. When I didn't think of anything to write, I placed down my pencil and let out a sigh.

Quack.

I looked down the see a duckling on the edge of the pond, its siblings and its mom already in the water.

Quack, QUACK.

I smirked as it touched the water with its foot and jumped back in surprise.

Quackkk.

A bigger smile grew onto my lips as it jumped into the water happily.

Quack, quack! Quack, quack!

I watched as it looked around franticly for its family. I eyed another duck swimming back and then leading the way for the lost duck.

I smiled as it was able to reach the rest of its family and mommy.

"That's it! We'll do the dance about ducks!" My excitement scared the ducks away from me; I smiled at them and began to write what I just saw. By the time I finished Sakura was rushing out the door.

"What did she make you do this time?" She smiled at me.

"I had to write an essay on how I won't skip class again and why I did it this time." I smirked at her.

"I have an idea." She tilted her head to the side, but I handed her my notepad as an answer. She quickly read it and handed it back to me with a smirk.

"This is great Hinata! How did you think of this?" I looked down at the duck family I was stalking when she was in detention, and when I looked back up at her, she had an 'o' face.

"Well do you have a partner?" I shook my head no, but I knew who I was going to ask.

"I'm going to ask Itachi, but I don't know when. The Ball is next Friday and we need to practice." She waved a hand at me.

"Just text him silly!" I turned red and looked down. "You have a phone… right Hinata?"

"O-of course I do!"

"Then just text him!" I turned a deeper red.

"I don't have his number…" I mumbled, continuing to look down. But Sakura was already gone; all that was left of her trace was the swinging doors. I sighed and walked into the building to go talk to Kurenai.

When I arrived to her room, I quickly told her who my partner was, showed her our plans, and gotten it approved. She looked at me sternly.

"Who are you asking to be your partner?" I looked down with a blush.

"Itachi Uchiha." She cleared her throat, I looked up at her.

"Be careful with him, I hear from the students in my dance classes that he's not really trustworthy. Just be careful." I nodded to her with a smile, and got up to leave.

"Can you make our group last to perform?" She nodded 'yes' to me, and with that I was gone.

I have to ask Itachi about being my partner. But I don't want to have to go to the party to ask him. I don't need that embarrassment. During my thought processing, I made my way to the choir room door, and knocked on it.

My eyes widened in shock when I realized what I was doing, but before I could leave, the door opened.

"Who are you?" I looked at Ino in shock.

"I'm Hinata, is Itachi here?" She gave me an evil smirk while saying he was. She opened the door a little while and I spotted him with a blond girl. She looked like she was a junior. I frowned at them and looked back at Ino.

"I'm sorry, but he looks busy. And plus, I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to talk to a nobody." And with that, the door was slammed in my face.

It's not what I saw or heard that made me cry, it was how I felt. I rubbed my eyes as tears rushed out, and I ran out of the school entrance. I looked up at the cloudy sky, tears still rushing down, and it started to pour rain.

I stayed in that position for a while, and then began to walk home.

2 miles to go and then I'm home!

I wiped the tears out of my eyes and threw myself into my emotionless space; this is going to be a long week.

I hope you guys liked this! Yes, I know, I have horrible grammar. Just ignore ittt! I'm lazy right now, and whenever I correct myself, I'm dead wrong.

Can anyone guess who the blonde chick is?

Chao!
