| Lina's P.O.V |

You had been on Konoha High for a little over a month now and didn't consider yourself as new anymore. However, people around were really weird. And that was not in a good way. Girls are gossiping about you and tell you they feel sorry for you.

Sasuke had been missing classes since English, and you suddenly didn't like the idea of he gave you papers and left without speaking a word.

- "Did you manage to call him up just yet?" you questioned Naruto who was sitting with his sandwich in one hand and texting with the other. He looked up at you and shook his head.

- "No" he replied and put his cell-phone back into his pocket. You sighed. Did I do something to offend him?

- "Hey Lina? What are you thinking about?" Naruto asked, tearing you out of your thoughts.

- "Nothing really" you muttered and took a seat in front of your new blond friend.

- "Any of you found Sasuke yet?" a boy with long brown hair and pale eyes questioned out as he joined you by the table. You glanced shortly at him. You didn't really like Neji. He always seemed so cocky and arrogant. You shook your head, and you could only barely hear him swear.

- "Well, Sasuke probably have his reasons" you murmured more to yourself than the table.

- "It's not Sasuke just to disappear like that without saying a word. Since you don't know anything about him you better not talk" Neji pointed out. Your facial expression turned into a frown.

- "Sasuke actually does, but the weird thing is he did it after giving you the syllabus for English" Naruto stated.

- "It's still too weird to me" Neji stated and crossed his arms over his chest. You wanted to slap him across the face when he looked at you while saying that. You better not blame me for this!

- "Don't take it out on Lina. It's not her fault" Lee butted into the conversation as he joined you. You smiled a little.

- "We know Sasuke have his days where he wants to be alone and just disappear, and no one blames him. Neither of the teachers is asking questions to it" he continued and bit off his pizza. Thanks for the backup, Lee.

| In front of the lockers, 12:16pm |

- "Sasuke!! Where are you??!" a female voice called out down the hallway. From the corner of your eye you saw it was Sakura. You rolled your eyes and grabbed your math books. You hated math, and you hated Algebra. You never understood a shit of it!

- "Where is Sasuke?!" a half angry Sakura suddenly tore you out of your thoughts. You closed your locker and turned towards her.

- "I think everyone would like to know" you stated and started to walk past her, but she held out an arm, ordering you to stop.

- "You were last seen with him, so you tell me where he is!" she demanded.

- "I have no idea!" you stated back and tried your best to hold in your anger.

- "That's not true! Sasuke seem different when he's around you, why?! I want answers! What are you to Sasuke?!?" she shouted in your face. This whole scenario made your blood boil and you tightened your grip on your books, not to smack her one with them.

- "I have no idea of what you're talking about, and I have no idea what I am to him. To me, he's a friend and that's about it" you said and pulled a blank face, that made Sakura open her mouth and close it again.

- "Tha--"

- "I have a class to go to" you said and dashed past her and made your way to math. What the fuck is going on around here?! Everyone is so weird!

| Sai's P.O.V |

All this gossiping between the girls is annoying me to no end. They got everything right, but then also everything wrong. I couldn't stop but think of her since P.E. I need to talk to her somehow, but something tells me it's not going to be the easiest task. I need to come up with something good that will make her listen, but what? My brain feels like it's about to explode. There she is.

-"Lina" I said and flashed her a smile. She might not have heard me cause she walked straight past me and took a seat next to Naruto who had the annoying grin of his glued on his face. I'll just get her later.

- "Concentrated of something?" Shino questioned as he sat himself down on my left side. I watched him from the corner of my eye.

- "Ah yes, I was thinking of the Polynomials' variables" I told him with a smile.

- "I see" was all he replied. You weirdo. I was about to turn around to get Lina's attention, but in the moment I was about to, Asuma-sensei stepped into the class. I glanced back at Lina one more time.

At least math class passed quickly. I can't make her ignore me like that, it's just not an option. Still, I wonder why Sasuke is so interested in her. Can she by any chance be his secret girlfriend? I doubt that. But asking him would be the same as asking a door - it's not talking or answering. You're not going to have her, Uchiha. You might be charming but you won't have her.

- "Lina" I called out her name as she headed towards her locker. I didn't get a respond, so I guess she didn't hear me.

- "Lina" I called out again. She turned her head making her long black hair sway over her shoulder. Gorgeous.

- "What do you want, Sai?" she asked me in a stern voice. I pulled a smile at her and walked up to her as she grabbed books in her bag and placed them in her locker.

- "I told you I would make it up to you from last Saturday. I didn't mean to hurt you. Someone must have put something in my drink" I told her. She looked at me, almost like she was studying my face.

- "You honestly want me to believe that?" she questioned with a serious expression.

- "Yea. I wouldn't do anything to harm you, you should know that. I care for you" I smiled and reached out a hand to stroke her cheek, but she quickly pulled back with a frown. This seems to get a lot more complicated than I expected.

- "What's the matter? I wasn't going to hurt you" I said and reached out for her again. With a little struggle I finally managed to touch her. Her skin feel like silk.

- "What do you want?" she ask and slapped my hand away. I have to admit it - her slaps are pretty hard for a girl.

- "I want a new chance with you" I smiled at her. She blinked, almost like she was confused over something.

- "With me? We've never seen anything, so tell me why the hell people are talking about it!" he snapped. I watched her as her face became blank. What am I going to say?

- "I have no idea, jealousy is an ugly thing" I resorted in the hope she'd buy it. Once again she looked directly at me, this time her face was even more blank than before. honestly that face of hers actually scares me a little.

- "Yea right" she replied and shut her locker. Is she mad about anything?

- "I'm only trying to treat you right, Lina" I told her. A soft sigh left her kissable lips, then she started to walk out of the school building. I walked after her and grabbed her wrist gently from behind making her look at me.

- "How about we start this over? I'm free tomorrow evening if you care for dinner" I said trying to persuade her. She still held a blank face, her green-grey eyes stared at me. It didn't seem like I was going to get an answer. She's just like Sasuke.

- "I'm gonna give you a call" I said and after glancing slightly around from the corner of my eyes, I pecked her on the lips. They were so soft and I could have kept touching them forever, but I had to leave sooner.
