Here it goes! Don't own Naruto but i do have a sunburn!

CHAPTER 7: MEETING

SEPTEMBER 18TH THURSDAY, LUNCH 12:30

"Ne, ne Hinata did you hear?" Sakura asked shaking me lightly. She seemed like and over hyper puppy.

"Hear what?" I said taking a sip of my water.

"The car chase that happened last night!"

I choked, spitting out my water. (A/N hehe I love spit takes. :p)

"A-a car chase?" I asked shakily reaching for a napkin.

"Yeah!" She said, happily. Not reacting to the water I just spit all over Ino.

Ino on the other hand….

"Cold, cold, and ew backwash!" She said as she reached for a handful of napkins of her own.

"Hinata dear, you've become one of my best friends and I love you, but there are limits." She said eying me while she was wiping her face.

Sakura, Karin, and another girl that I meet today (What was her name? Izumi?) were all laughing.

I just let out a weak chuckle and gave a sheepish apology smile to Ino before taking another sip of water.

Izumi was kind of a petite girl. She had long black hair that was tied in a side ponytail draping over he left shoulder, her bangs were on the left and cover part of her face. She had light baby blue eyes and a button nose, which I found out later, was because she's half British. She was wearing a form fitting blue t-shirt that said 'I didn't hit you I hi-fived you in your face,' with a panda on it that had a read paw mark, and a white tank top underneath. (I love that shirt .) She had on dark faded caprise that were folded at the bottom with a couple of rips in them and black converse.

"Anyway, back to the car chase!" Sakura said after she finished laughing. "I heard that no one knows who was being chased, since they didn't know about it till today, but apparently there were a bunch of gun shots in some discarded tires and skid marks all over the road. They think it might be connected to some shooting in a convenience store, but whoever did it was smart and smashed the tap so no one knows!" Sakura exclaimed excitedly, and surprisingly in one breath.

"Uh-huh…." I said, drawn out as I took a bit of my sandwich and swallowed, hard. My throat was so dry because of nerves. I was acting calm on the outside, but inside I was screaming.

To my relief the bell rang then and I let out a held breathe that I didn't even know I was holding.

'And my day just gets better!' I yelled sarcastically in my head, rolling my eyes to myself.

FOOTBALLFIELD, 3:30

Since the meeting with Naruto wasn't until five, and I had nothing better to do, I decided to stay and watch the soccer team practice out on the field.

I hopped up and climbed to the 3rd row in the bleachers, taking a seat right as a whistle blew.

The soccer team split from its huddle and walked out onto the field.

I knew it wasn't soccer season, but sports at this school are very competitive so they go all year. Techniqually though they could be playing Futsal which is winter soccer, and in Europe soccer season goes August to May…. Even though were not in Europe. (A/N Thank you Wikipedia!)

They guys reached their formation and my eyes scanned the bunch, rolling over each one, and even spotting some in my class.

Until my eyes caught a blonde.

I leaned forward a little in my seat. 'It can't be, can it? Oh crap it can.'

That's right, I know what you thinking.

Naruto.

Fate loves me, right?

There he was, stretching his arm across his chest, wearing a yellow practice jersey over his gym clothes. From where he was standing he was probably a striker. (A/N Where I live the people in the front are called strikers so sorry if its called something else where you are.)

The whistle blew and the ball was released.

Naruto quickly took control of the ball, dribbling it between his feet as he ran the field before kicking it to another kid. They passed it back and forth, like a zigzag before Naruto finally kicked for the goal.

The ball went flying into the air and into the goal, and almost hit the goalie in the face.

I watched with some interest. I actually like sports so it was fun to sit and watch practices.

The team practiced for another 15 minutes before they were given a five minute water break. I reached in my bag for my own water. Watching them play made me thirsty.

I finally found the bottle in the sea of crap that I keep in my purse and unscrewed the cap.

"SASUKE-KUN!"

I was bumped as a mob of girls ran past me screaming, Ultimately crashing my mouth into the bottle and making my spit out and spill my water.

Again.

'Dang that's the second time today. And those girls scared the crap out of me! Ow. That freaking hurt! Geez I have water all over me now! Who the heck is this Sasuke anyway!'

I looked up to find a blob of 'preppy' 'popular' girls running toward some black haired chicken-butt-thing.

Well that's what I thought.

Until he turned around.

He had dark black raven hair that was spiked, and onyx eyes. He had chiseled features and a handsome face, except for the expression.

He had a very cold air around him, the sort of attitude that said 'I'm-brooding-so-leave-me-the-fuck-alone.'

The girls obviously found that sexy as they were literally drooling over him as he wiped the sweat off his face with a towel that was around his neck.

I was frowning before I started to regret not bringing popcorn as I watched them fight of whose water bottle he was gonna drink out of, and I'm pretty sure they're not going to wash it afterward.

I sat on the edge of my seat excited as I watched a blonde and red head argue, waiting for one to throw a punch.

"What are you looking at?"

I let out a little 'eep' as I jumped at the voice behind me. I turned around and looked up.

It was Naruto.

And he was talking to me.

O

M

G

Finally! He makes human contact!

"Some girls fighting. I'm waiting for one to throw a punch." I said, trying to act calm.

He nodded and had a small smirk on his face.

I felt a light sting on my face and realized I was blushing.

Lovely.

There was a sudden scream of 'OW' and I turned my head back forward.

"Dang it I missed it! Who threw the first punch?"

"The blonde. The red head threw the first punch but the blonde connected first."

"Nice." I smile as I looked up at him.

And he smiled back. I felt a warmth then building in my stomach and crawling upward. My blush increased as we just kept staring at each other.

He was sexy when he smiled.

'Why wasn't he this nice in the beginning?'

A whistle blew in the distance and our eyes disconnected.

"That's coach, gotta go. See ya' tonight?" He asked jogging down the stands.

"Yeah, see ya'." I called after him with a weak wave.

ABANDONED SHED, 5:00

"Well shall we begin this little meeting?" Kankuro said as he plopped down on an old couch.

"So what's with the shed?" I asked brushing off some dust from a box before sitting down.

"This place used to be a janitor's shed, but one day a janitor went missing." Kankuro said, making his voice low and mysterious.

" The next day he was found hung by his shirt outside the door, dead and covered in blood. They say he haunts this place now, and every once in a while, they can hear him whistling. Poor guy still thinks he's working. No one dares come back, and no one knows who or what killed him. "

A low whistling started and my breath hitched and I pulled my legs to my chest. I was never good with ghosts. Or spiders. Or snakes.

"Oh shut up Kankuro and quit feeding her crap. Its true that this was a janitor's shed but it was too far from the school so they built one closer. So basically its our club house." Shikamaru said, slapping the back of Kankuro's head.

I breathed a sigh of relief and I set my feet back on the ground.

I looked around the old shed. Despite being so old it was actually quite cozy.

When you walk in there's an old couch to your left and a computer and office chair on the right. There was an old wooden chair in the back right corner with boxes and crates scattered in random places.

Shikamaru was sitting backwards in the office chair and was wheeling back toward the computer after wheeling to the couch to smack Kanuro in the head.

Kanuro was sitting on the far end of the couch near the back. Gaara sitting in the middle and Temari on the other end.

I was sitting on a box near the door by Temari.

Neji was sitting on the right side of the room in an old wooden chair while Naruto was sitting on a box in the back of the room, leaning against the wall.

Tenten was sitting on a box in the back sharpening a knife. She held out the knife in front of her face, her tongue sticking out a little bit in the corner and one eye closed, examining it.

After a bit she gave a satisfied smile and cocked back her arm and released. The knife went flying past my face, hitting a dart board on the door with a light 'thump'. I felt a light breeze afterward from the knife.

"Oh yeah! Right down the middle!" Tenten yelled happily, throwing her fist in the air.

I sweat dropped. And let out a relieved breath.

"What?" She asked me confused.

I shook my head and ignored her.

"So what was the point of calling me out here?" I asked finally getting the question out in the open.

These guys seemed friendly enough, but after what happened last night they intimidated me. Just a little bit.

Ok, a lot.

"Its about what you saw last night." Naruto said, leaning forward, elbows on his knees.

"We could always kill her." Gaara said. Completely straight faced.

I inwardly started panicking. This guy is so serious.

They all gave him a questioning look.

"It was a joke." He soon replied. "Mostly."

They all sweat dropped and dropped their heads.

"I don't know. I think we should trust her." Shikamaru said, spinning in his chair.

'Yes! I like that idea, go with that one! I'm too young to die!' I said in my head.

Neji glared at me from across the room before speaking. "With everything?" He asked questioning Shikamaru.

"I know it sounds stupid since we just met her but, I don't know how to say this.. I just.. get this feeling about her. A feeling that we should trust her."

They gave him a questioning look before Temari spoke up.

"I'm with Shika, lets go with it. You never know till you try."

"You only agree 'cuz you like him." Kankuro said before letting out an evil smirk in her direction.

"Sh-shut up!" Temari said smacking him in the head.

"Yeah its ok to try Temari, but its that one chance that we won't be able to take back. What if we regret it later?" Neji asked.

I knew he was skeptical about the whole thing. In fact I was skeptical.

What everything? What was I going to get into by letting them trust me?

"Alright, I think I made a decision."

All eyes turned toward Naruto.

"I say we…."

SOooooooo how was it? cheesy cliffhanger and kind of a weird chapter (well i thought it was or maybe it was just weird typing it?)

alright and Sasuke will make more of an apearance (Sorta)

Sasuke: Well atleast you finally put me in 7 chapters and now im introduced! geez...

Me: sorry but i figured id give you a break from me but if you start complaining i will do something horrible to you!

Thank you please REVIEW!
