Chapter 10Class President and an Unexpected Visit
"G'Morning class" stated Kuranai-sensei perkily as she placed her luggage on her desk.
"Good Morning Kuranai-sensei" everyone responded.
"Well I guess everyone's anxious as the results from the class president elections are in" at this everyone perked up.
"Well not to drag this out more than is necessary, I will announce our class president for this year" as Kuranai-sensei reached into her bag and pulled out the envelope the whole class went still as if every last person was holding their breath. She pulled out the envelope and without hesitation tore it open. She keenly look at the name inscribed on the paper and then at the class. The room was so quiet with anticipation that if a pin dropped a mile away it could be heard.
"Kuranai-sensei!! Hurry and announce the winner already. This silence is killing me, if it goes on any longer ama start losing my hair" Chouji complained as he comforted his growling tummy. "Plus am hungry" he added with a moan.
"Ah Chouji" moaned teased Ten –Ten as she pinched him on the cheek.
"Well guys, here I go. The class president of room 12a for the year 2009 is no other than Ino Yamachi! " announced Kuranai-sensei with all the preppy-ness she could muster, which is not much I can tell you. At this statement the whole class erupted into cheers of joy, well not exactly everyone.
Sakura, Temari and Hitomi had scowls so ugly etched across their face that if they could see themselves they would die of a heart attack. While everyone around jumped with glee they sat crossed legged in their seats with their hands folded defiantly across their chest.
"Everyone, everyone please calm down, am not finished yet" pleaded Mrs. Sarutobi at the top of her lungs.
"Hey! Where are you guys going?1" she asked sternly at the fleeing forms of Naruto and his gang. Everyone else but Naruto quickly turned around to face their teacher. Kuranai- sensei dramatically folded her hand across her chest as she waited patiently for them to explain their attempted escape.
"Well….. uh…" stammered Kiba as he scratched his head searching for an excuse.
"Well what Kiba's trying to say.... to say, is……"added Shikamaru a bit flustered trying to save their asses.
"We have soccer practice with Kakashi sensei for first period. Your time is up as you can see by the clock but we did not want to be rude and interrupt your speech but we also did not want upset Kaka-sensei as well by being late so we decided to just leave silently. Do you have a problem with that?" Naruto added arrogantly.
"Uh… uh" stammered Mrs. Sarutobi as she took a quick glance at her watch to confirm what Naruto said. "But am not finished" she complained, fully resigned to the fact that they had all rights to leave as her time was up.
"Don't worry Kuranai- sensei, they can leave I'll relay the rest of what happens here to them later" added Sakura happily as she turned and cast a brilliant smile at Naruto. Naruto seeing the smile designated for him scowled at Sakura as he turned and exited the class room.
"Well thank you Sakura, I guess we'll be seeing you at lunch" added Sasuke thankfully as he turned tail and followed after Naruto. At this squad prissy-ness released a shy giggle.
"But… but…" Kuranai-sensei didn't get to finish her statement as the rest of them without a glance back ward turned and left the classroom as well.
"Ah well, we'll just have to continue without them. Ino will you come up here please" at this Ino walked meekly up towards Kuranai-sensei, upon reaching her, Mrs. Sarutobi reached inside her bag for the class president pin. She then reached forwarded and pinned it to Ino's shirt.
"Congratulations Ms. Yamachi. I hope you serve us well this year" she commended Ino as she shook her hand.
"Will do Kuranai-sensei. I'll definitely do my best" replied Ino with much confidence and dedication.
"Well everyone…." Stated Kuranai-sensei as she turned to face the class. "Please put your hand together and help me welcome your vice president for this year; Sakura Hanai" at this both Temari and Hitomi erupted into squeals of joy, they were soon joined in their celebration by a few students. Sakura slowly made her way up to the front of the class with a shocked look smeared across her face and two fully charged and energized friends pushing her towards the teacher.
"Well Ms. Hanai, I hope you serve the class well this year" Kuranai- sensei commended Sakura as she pinned the badge to her shirt. "Congratulations" she added with a smile when she was finished.
"Arigato!" Sakura shouted at Mrs. Sarutobi, her reaction catching everyone off guard. "Eh… Sorry, I just meant I'll do my very best to serve you guys well. Thank you for nominating me, I feel so loved…"
"Yeah really. Believe what ever makes you feel make good" Ino added so that only those who were up front could hear. At this Sakura threw her a nasty look that said 'shut up bimbo'. "Just because you got class president doesn't make you queen of the universe, you know" she stated harshly .At this Ino laughed then stuck her tongue out at her and walked off the stage.
"Have a problem with my queenly attitude, deal with it. In the mean time, while you and your friends plot and scheme at trying to get back at me, I'll be off at class learning" stated Ino confidently as she rejoined her posse.
"Well you are all now dismissed, sorry for taking out a little of your class time, I'll explain to your teachers, so be off" added Kuranai-sensei as she picked up her books and headed towards the door. At this everyone glanced up at the class clock, realizing that they were all now 15 minutes late for class, all grabbed their belongings and rushed for the door.
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
"Ai, that woman is such a pain" complained Naruto as he led the group towards the changing room.
"Hey, don't be so harsh, she is a good teacher" Kiba defended
"Well I guess she isn't too bad" he stated with a far away tone in his voice, as if he was thinking about something else.
"Uh Sasuke as I recall, I could have sworn I heard you invited Ms. Hanai to our table today"
"Uhhh….. Did I?" Sasuke added innocently
"Don't play the fool. You know she's been after me since day one, hoping my popularity will advance her status around here but guess what am not interested"
"Well what does that have to do with me?"
"You seem to not notice that I don't really like her too much and now because of your selfish thinking am going to have to puke my lunch this afternoon"
"Well sorry, that am not thinking about your welfare 24/7 master, next time I'll ask before I invite anyone to sit with us" stated Sasuke a bit angry now. "You're all ways so full of yourself. It's always about you. Had it ever occurred to you that I might like Sakura and that this is not all about you" this drew a loud gasp from everyone in the group.
"Your suppose to be my best friend" Sasuke added with a laugh "What a joke, selfish people like you don't know what it means to care about someone. You self…"
"I can't take this ranting any longer, am gone for a walk" Naruto stated as he marched away.
"Naruto! Wait he didn't mean it" shouted Kiba trying to convince Naruto to stay.
"Hey baka! What are we to tell Kaka- sensei when you don't show up" shouted Shikamaru at his retreating form.
"What ever sounds best" Naruto shouted in reply and he was around the corner and out of sight.
"That idiot, always so selfish, only thinking about him self" cursed Shikamaru under his breath.
"I hate him, always acting so cool, who made him the leader of our group anyways" complained Sasuke as he walked off continuing his journey towards the changing room.
"Come on, were already late, no time to loiter around thinking about things that'll never change" at this both of them turned to follow Sasuke.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"That Sasuke, always complaining about one thing or the next, geesh. How was I supposed to know he had a thing for Sakura … brrrr" he inwardly shivered in disgust at the idea. "Of all the girls in this school to like, he falls for the one who has an ulterior motive. Baka! At the thought of girls his mind started to drift and what other girl to start thinking of but the one he wants most to ignore.
He berated himself constantly as images of his previous encounter with Hinata flooded his mind. He could now see as clear as the day it happened, Hinata's soft lips as they met his in a sweet and glorious kiss, he could distinctly remember her moaning in his embrace. All these images only serve to quicken his pulse as his blood began to over heat. He cursed himself out loud as he brought his hand to rub against his temple trying to rid himself of the haunting images, all the while his eyes were closed in earnest concentration as he continued walking.
"Awww! For crying out loud, would you watch where you're going!" cried a now angry Hanabi as her butt ached from its hard contact with the floor. At this Naruto's eyes flew open in surprise to see a fragile looking female sitting on the floor with a scowl on her face.
"Am so sorry. I didn't see you there; I was distracted for a moment. Let me help you up" he stretched his hand out to her. Hanabi for the first time looked up to meet Naruto's gaze and the face her gaze landed on pleased her very much, with a flirty smile she placed her hand in his and he pulled her up off the ground.
"Thank you…" she added verbalized as she brushed off her jeans but in her mind she really said 'break me off a piece a this guy, what a hottie I wonder if he's old enough' she licked her lips excitingly.
"It's Naruto. Well I guess you're new around here because I would have remembered if I saw a pretty face like yours around here before. Plus you look a lot older than the other girls around here, so am guessing your not a transfer student, not that you look old, oh contraire; you look as young and fresh as spring flower just in bloom" he smiled to himself.
"Oh…. Well… thanks for the compliment, you're a sweet guy and your actually right about the transfer thing am actually a college student" she thanked him and then started to take off. As she slipped passed him he grabbed a hold off her upper arm halting her in her tracks.
"I didn't quite get your name" he explained
"Oh, am Hanabi"
"Well take care beautiful, hope to see you around some other time, where we can get more acquainted" he added with a wink and a smirk.
"You just might get your wish, lover boy" she joked as she blew him a kiss then walked off.
"Damn that girl is hot……… but she reminds me of someone, I can't quite place who yet. Anyways wait till the guys hear about this" he smiled to himself all the way to the locker rooms and out unto the field all the while thinking of ways to woe this girl.
*************
"Aw, Hinata are you gonna eat that slice a cake you got there on your tray"
"Oh n-no Chouji, am full, so you can have it" Hinata answered after she looked down at the slice of chocolate cake that was stilling waiting to be eaten on her lunch tray. Chouji then reached over and took the cake.
"So is everyone going to the camp out this Friday?" asked Ino
"What camp out?" asked Hinata truly confused.
"Don't tell me you guys forgot?!" yelled Ino
"No we didn't, Hinata is the only one when it comes to this one" added Ten-Ten
"Uh am sorry" stated Hinata still not sure about what it is that she was forgetting.
"The Annual Bonfire fiasco, remember, the one announced by the principle last week. The one we all agreed to go to?" Ino informed seeing the look of confusion on Hinata's face
"Oh man" she moaned
"You truly forgot, didn't you, well I didn't really expect any better from my knuckled headed cousin, so I took the liberty off paying for you, so there is nothing for you all to get riled up about" added Neji
"Phew" Ino exhaled with relief. "Hinata you are so forgetful, God. You're like a baby that needs constant attention"
"Sorry, Ino" Hinata added ashamed
"Well the good thing is that you're coming. Thanks baby" she blew Neji a kiss.
"Huh?" Hinata voiced in confusion at what had just taken place between Ino and Neji.
"Don't look so surprised Hinata, they've been together since middle school" explained Ten-Ten
"What! An am just knowing this because?"
"Well we keep our relationship between the gang so we've never gone public plus we did hint it to you when we had this Bonfire conversation the first time, remember" seeing the blank look on Hinata's face Ino decided to refresh her memory. "Remember when Neji said 'Definitely, who'd wanna miss out' when Sumaru asked if we were going to go to the bonfire thingy majiggy then he winked at me and I blushed?" at this Hinata still looked lost.
"Well I tried" Ino comforted herself as she decided to let the conversation go.
"But... b-but…" she didn't get to finish her statement as an unexpected guess joined the conversation.
"But what Hinata?" asked Hanabi as she made her way over to their table.
"Huh, Hanabi" Both Hinata and Neji voiced in shocked unison, as she took a seat between Hinata and Chouji.
"What the hell are you doing here?!" but before Hanabi could answer Ino voiced a question of her own.
"Who the heck is this?!"
"Am Hanabi" she added with a warming smile. "… and you might be?"
"None of your business" Ino added as she turned to look at Neji questioningly
"Oh guys this is my cousin, Hinata's older sister; Hanabi"
"You never told us you had an older sibling Nata-san?" chimed the rest of the group.
"Uh…. Agh…" stammered Hinata as she racked her brain for a reason why she didn't tell the gang before hand that she had a sister.
"Yes Nata-san, why didn't you mention me before…" Hanabi added with a crooked smile. "Nata-san, is that what they're calling you now a days" she chuckled loudly; this etched a scowl across Hinata's face. She hated it when Hanabi made fun of her.
"I really don't like this girl" added Ino to Neji as she saw the scowl that appeared on Hinata's face when Hanabi made her comment.
"You have a problem with that big sister" Hinata asked Hanabi as her anger started to boil over.
"As if I'd care, anyways" Hanabi added nonchalantly
"You still haven't answered the question of why you're here."
"Well, if you really want to know. I dropped by to check upon you. You know to find how your school life is; who are your friends, enemies if you have any and if you had a boyfriend…."
"Like that'd be any of your God Damned Business!" shouted Hinata
"Wow, wow calm down lil sis. You've sure developed quite the hot temper since I've been away"
"She didn't have one until you showed up" whispered Ten-Ten
"And you should have stayed away at college! I want you to leave this table this minute. If you don't then I will" commanded Hinata, at this Hanabi snickered not making a move to leave the table. Hinata seeing that she was not interested in leaving picked up her tray and made a beeline for the exit.
"Hinata wait what are you doing?" asked Ino quite angry at the fact that Hinata was making Hanabi win.
"Am leaving" she shouted back
"You get back here this instant young miss!" shouted Ino, the whole cafeteria was now tuned into what was going on at their table.
"You get back her this instance…." Her voice broke with the pain it was causing her too see her friend give in to this monster that was her sister. "… and show this bitch who is boss!" at this the whole cafeteria gasped in shock. Hinata cringed at the thought that Ino had called Hanabi what she always wanted to all these years. She then turned around and looked at Ino.
"I can't" was all she said as the unshed tears she had been holding in sprung from her eyes. She quickly turned around and dashed out of the canteen. This response made Ino mad, she shrieked like a Valkyrie. This got everyone scared; she then turned to face Hanabi.
"You know I once promised that girl that no matter what I'd always have her back and I just want to let you know that I intend to keep that promise" at this she grabbed up her unfinished bottle of cherry flavoured soda and poured it all over Hanabi, who gasped in shock as she flew to her feet. The cafeteria too gasped in shock.
"Now you look on the outside as you do on the inside; like crap. Don't mess with my friends. Have a nice day Watabi" stated Ino as she strolled out of the canteen with the gang in tow and the eyes of everyone watching them.
*********************
"Wow that was a nasty fight"
"That Ino is one dirty fighter; don't wanna mess with that girl man"
"You two quiet down"
"And that Hinata is a chicken, having people fight her own battles for her" stated Sakura in disgust.
"Yeah such a wimp" agreed Temari and Hitomi who was also sitting at Naruto's table for lunch.
"Right Naruto" Sakura asked trying to get him to add to the conversation.
"But I can't believe that girl's Hinata's sister" added Temari. This was the same thought that nagged at Naruto's sub conscience.
"Mmm" was his muffled response as he was not too interested in starting up a convo with Sakura but he didn't want to not answer so as to tick Sasuke off, they were best friends after all and one fight was enough for one day.
"Hey isn't that Watabi girl the one you told us about?' asked Kiba
"Her name is Hanabi and yes she is the same girl" at this Sakura began to scrunch up her face she didn't like what she was hearing and she was beginning to dislike this Hanabi person.
"Well I guess this is your chance to move in" encouraged Shikamaru
"Yep, this is your chance to play the knight comes to the rescue" added Kiba as both him and Shikamaru burst out laughing.
"Yeah, yeah keep laughing, it won't be so funny when I have her a as n...." he stopped suddenly as he remembered that they weren't the only ones at their table today.
"Well hurry up now before you miss your golden opportunity" at this Naruto looked up to see Hanabi slowly leaving the cafeteria. He quickly picked up his lunch tray and ran after her.
"Naruto! Wait!" shouted Sakura as she tried to stop Naruto from chasing after Hanabi but she was too late, he had placed his tray on top of the garbage bin and was out of there.
"That bitch, who does she think she is, stealing my Naruto? I'll make her pay" thought Sakura to herself as a wicked smile etched across her face.
*************
"Hey leaving so soon" asked Naruto when he finally caught up to Hanabi outside.
"Yeah I don't stay too long in places am not wanted" she added with a fake giggle.
"Well can I give you a ride home" he asked not sure where to take the conversation.
"That's a sweet thought but no thanks, I already have a drive..." she pointed in the direction of a red BMW convertible parked just a few metres away. "Plus don't you guys still have classes?" she questioned.
"Something like that but who could penalize a guy for not thinking straight when in the presence of such a beautiful lady" he complimented her. "Plus around here I practically do what I want to" he boasted.
"Is that so?" she taunted him to go on.
"Very much, I'm the school soccer team's star mid-fielder and captain; I'm practically royalty around here"
"So I guess the girls around here swoon left, right and centre when you pass by especially since you own such a handsome face" he blushed at this comment
"You can say so, although it as brought me a lot of unwanted attention sometimes"
"Well Mr. Star mid-fielder, I'm impressed" she added with a smirk as she covered the few feet that was between them in no time. She was now so close to him he could smell the perfume she was wearing. Naruto swallowed hard before he spoke.
"So what's my reward?" she smiled up at him as her hands reached inside her purse for a piece of paper and a pen. She began to scribble away on the paper, when she was finished she handed it to him.
"What's this" asked Naruto
"My number silly, what expected more" she teased, as Naruto looked at what was written on the paper then placed it into his shirt pocket.
"Am willing to take whatever you're giving" he teased back, this emitted a small giggle from Hanabi.
"So you like older girls, huh?" she asked as she lifted her hand and traced it across his lips.
"Not really, just you"
"Ha I see, right answer. Anyways I got to go home and change, why don't you call me later, we might be able to work something out" she flirted
"Ok" at this she tipped up on her toes and kissed Naruto, she then turned and walked over to her car, got in and drove off with out looking back, leaving Naruto there standing in her dust.
