The New Boy In School, A GaaSaku Story

Chapter 3

Naruto Doesn't Belong To Me!

Sakura sat up in bed early at morning, rubbing her eyes. The... Hell... Did I just dream about... H-Him? Sakura's inner laughed mockingly at her, and Sakura slammed her face into the pillow, groaning loudly. Stop laughing at me! It's not funny, it's actually driving me crazy!

Crazily in love! Sakura groaned again and almost jumped off her bed entirely when she heard a knock at her door. "What!?"

"Sorry, honey. One of your little friends came over. Can he come in?"

Sakura felt herself hyperventilate. "Wh-which one?"

Her mother opened the door to show the familure blond making his ^^ face. Sakura took a huge, relieved breath and sat up, then looked at herself. "Naruto... What time is it? I'm still in my pajamas!" Naruto smirked, and looked at Sakura's nightstand. "7:43." Sakura sighed. "Isn't it like... Tuesday?" Naruto raised an eyebrow then laughed. "No, Sakura-Chan. It's Saturday. You sure your okay?" Sakura took another deep breathe of relief. "It's really Saturday?" Naruto nodded and put his messenger bag down beside the door. "You don't mind if I hang out with you today do you?" Sakura shook her head and stood up from her bed, walking to her closet.

Her pajamas consisted of a white tee with short pink shorts, but Naruto's seen it before so she doesn't care. Naruto was sitting on the edge of her bed already, turning on his laptop. Sakura pulls out her maroon hoodie and her dark jean shorts. "Why'd you decide to come so early on a Saturday?" Naruto didn't look back since he knew she was changing and just shrugged. "I worry about you Sakura-Chan." Sakura rolled her eyes as she pulled her jean shorts on, and walked around to sit beside Naruto. "Why? Nothing's wrong with me." Naruto looked up at her with his ocean blue eyes. "Well. You've been acting weird Sakura-Chan. And you know your like a sister to me, so I have to protect you from whatever's making you so... I dunno... Paranoid and, like, anti-social or whatever..." Sakura smiled lightly and hugged her friend, and he hugged back. She sat back up and looked at him. "Aw, thanks Naruto. Thats probably the sweetest thing you've said to me in awhile. And I appreciate it." Naruto smiled and nodded, then looked back up to her with a puzzled face. "But can you tell me about what happened yesterday?" That question made Sakura jump, and try not to freak right there. "U-uh... Nothing, Naruto. Yesterday was fine. It's just... uh..." Sakura stuttered, trying to find an excuse. Then laughed at the only one she could come up with. "It's just that time of the month!" Naruto raised an eyebrow, then kinda laughed. "O-oh! I knew that... That does explain it though..."

Sakura and Naruto hung out in her room for awhile. Then at about noon Naruto got hungry, and of course it's obvious where he drug her. "Ramen, please!" Sakura laughed and laid her head down on the counter, ignoring her stomach's growls. Naruto was already eating, but paused to look at her. "You sure your not hungry? I can pay for you if you want me to." Sakura shook her head and put a hand on her stomach. Shut up! "I'm just fine... Not hungry at all. Really!" Sakura nervously laughed as her stomach growled again, loudly that time in protest. Naruto laughed and looked up. "May we have another bowl please?" Sakura smirked and looked down in defeat. "Naruto really you don't have to..." The bowl was placed before her and when she smelt it her stomach growled loudly as if saying "Eat already!"

They where on they're way back. "Really, Naruto. Let me pay you back, please!" Naruto shook his head and placed his hands behind his head, laughing. "Aw, no Sakura-Chan! It was my treat!." Sakura mentally counted 1... 2... 3... Naruto wasn't walking where he was going and smacked right into they're dark haired friend. "Hinata-Chan! I'm so sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going!" Hinata's face turned into a very bright red when Naruto leaned over her on the ground, where he fell, making Sakura snicker lightly. "N-Naruto... Kun!" Naruto stood up and grabbed her hand, pulling her up. Hinata gave Sakura a "help me..." face. Naruto patted the grains of sand and the pebbles off of Hinata's back and out of her long hair, which made her face even redder. "Naruto, I've heard of polite but have you heard of personal space?" Naruto stopped and nervously laughed. "S-sorry, it's just that I was so sorry for pushing her over and wanted to h-" "Shut up, Naruto." Sakura laughed as Hinata wildly, and emotionally struggled to make her blush go away.

"Gaara! Wake up! I'll make Temari go in there and drag you out!" Gaara narrowed his eyes and groaned. I am awake, thank you very much. I just haven't left my room yet. Actually, I've been up for a long time. But he didn't say anything and just ignored his brothers warnings, still laying on his bed. Gaara put a pillow over his head as he saw her and her friends walking back to her house outside his window. Damn it. I hate emotions. Shukaku emerged from the back of his mind and decided to tease him again.

Have you figured out you like her yet?

I don't like her.

No, your right...

Wait, what? I'm right?

You love her!

...No. I don't! Damn it, Shukaku!

Emotions are a great thing, Gaara... And you should learn how to express those... Why am I telling you this?

Because you like to give me fatherly lectures when really it's redundant because I never actually listen to them.

Gaara...? You are... So lame. No wonder you've never had a girlfriend!

Gaara's eye twitched and his hand became a fist over his forehead.

Uh oh... I struck a nerve... Should I go take a a not-really-needed nap?

Thats a great idea, Shukaku...

Aight. Gaara closed his eyes and took a deep breath, letting the sand around him settle back in the gourd by his bed. "That is not why I don't have a girlfriend. It's because everyone hates me, fears me, detests me, and wants me dead! No one has given me the freaking chance to get to know me! THATS WHY!" Gaara slammed his fist beside him on the bed and opened his eyes. "What do you want, Temari?" The female stood at the door, having it barely opened, her eyes filled with worry. Man... I picked a bad time to wake him up... By his little rant just then he's pissed... And I can guarantee it's that demon's fault... "G-Gaara? I j-just came to tell you that..." "Temari?" Temari jumped at his calmer voice... But something was weird about him. "Are you scared of me, too?" Gaara looked over at his older sister, something odd in his blueish eyes... Not only where they gentle but they where... Caring!? What is wrong with him! He has to be sick!

Sakura laughed lightly. "Hinata. You should seriously just tell him! You never know if he likes you until you tell him how you feel! He should already know but he's so stupid he doesn't understand. You make it very obvious." Hinata sighed and blushed, pushing her two index fingers together, looking at the ground. "B-but... Sakura-Chan..." "No buts, Hinata. Your telling him today! Where is he anyway...?" Naruto walked into the room then, his head facing towards the ground. "H-Hinata? Can I tell you... Something?"

Note: Sorry it's short... I'm slightly low on ideas. ^^; But I have a few...
