1Crimson Blossom

'Last time: 'Hinata nodded her head.'

Sakura gave a small sigh. She brushed some of her pink hair out of her face. "So Sakura why are you coming in the middle of the year?" Neji asked turning to her. "My mom got a new job here so we moved." Sakura said. Neji not being stupid saw that there was another reason but decided to drop it.

"What does your mom do now, Sakura?" TenTen questioned. Sakura shrugged "I don't know but I know what company she works for... The UPF, I think." Sasuke and Itachi turned to Sakura "What!" they said slightly surprised. Sakura jumped. She turned to them giving a gesture saying 'What?'

"Hey Sasuke doesn't your family own that place?" Kiba asked. Everyone's attention was on them. Sasuke nodded at them. Now it was Sakura's turn to be surprised "What! My mom said something about it being a family owned business but I thought ... she said her employer had two sons but... you've got to be shitten me!"

"Do you know what it stands for? It stands for Uchiha Police Force." Itachi informed her. "My mom is working for the police force... is she out of her mind!" Sakura yelled. The bus stopped.

Sakura turned to see the school. Sakura stood up like the rest of them. Sakura looked at her watch '7:30' it said. Sakura quirked an eyebrow "When does school start?" She asked. "8:30" Shino replied. "Why are we here so early?" she asked. They shrugged as they exited the bus.

"Sit with us Sakura." Ino begged. "Yeah your cool you know that?" TenTen said. Sakura thanked them and walked with them to the front of the school. They all sat on the steppes. They all had different conversations until Sakura stood up to stretch when a boy a year older then her ran into her and she hit the ground hard.

"Damn it!" Sakura cursed. The boy scrambled to his feet and turned to her "I'M SO SO SORRY! I DIDN'T SEE YOU THERE!!" he yelled. He is like an older Naruto; blond hair blue eyes loves to yell it seems. "No that's ok I am at fault too, 'kay?" she said looking at him. He nodded slowly. Within 5 second everyone was at their side. The blond held out his hand witch she took. She must have gotten up too fast because all the blood rushed to her head and she fell backwards into someone's strong arms.

Once her head cleared she looked up at nonother then Sasuke looking down at her in his arms. Sakura blushed ferociously. She shot out of his arms and ran forward into a group of girls that saw what happened and weren't happy about it.

She turned to rejoin the group but the girls stepped into the way. "Excuse me." Sakura said politely. The girls stepped forward; into Sakura's face. "Make me billboard-brow" said a girl with purple hair. Sakura wimpered at the name. She felt tears coming out of her eyes. "Well now look Ami she's a cry baby too." said the redhead next to Ami.

Sakura looked away not wonting to give them the pleasure of seeing her cry. "Look at me when I'm talking to you ugly!" Ami screamed as she grabbed Sakura's chin forcefully and made Sakura look at her. Sakura burst into tears "I'M NOT A BILLBOARD-BROW, I'M NOT A CRY BABY AND I'M NOT UGLY! LEAVE ME ALONE!" she screamed so loud that everyone heard her. Without thinking Sakura took off.

"Sakura wait!" She heard Tenten call out but she couldn't stop. Sakura could hear them all coming after her so not wanting to see her in her weakest state she ran faster. Sakura failed to see a branch on the ground she tripped and fell. Sakura was covered in scratches and cuts on her legs. Sakura cried in pain and saddness. She sat there and cried not caring who saw.

Everyone finally caught up and came around me. "Go away!" She cried through her arms. "Sakura it's ok please stop crying." Ino begged. "Ouch" Kiba said looking at her cut up legs. "Go away!" She repeated. She used her hand in an effort to swat them away but failed. Sakura felt strong arms on her waist that pulled her up into the sitting position. Sakura didn't care who it was so she turned in his grip and hugged him tight as if she let go of him she would die.

Sakura cried into his shoulder. At first he tensed by in a moment he was relaxed.
