Gaara P.O.V.
It was Friday and the day of the spring dance, and I was half asleep in my bed. I heard my bedroom door open. "Do I have to get up?" I asked. I didn't know who it was, but I did know they were coming in to get me up.
"Well your already awake aren't you? You might as well get out of bed," Temari told me.
"I'm only awake because I'm use to being up this early now," I said with a sigh.
"Well this is the last day you have to get up early, and tomorrow is the start of spring break, so you can sleep in," she told me. I yawned and sat up.
"I'll be in the kitchen in two minutes then," I told her. She smiled and closed my door so I could get dressed.
After I had got dressed and everything I went to the kitchen. Temari and Kankuro were sitting at the table eating cereal. I sat down and poured a bowl and ate. After we were done eating and cleaning the dishes we got ready to leave. The walk to school was a warmer one than normal because it was spring today and getting close to summer. It was sunnier out and it looked like it was going to be a good day because there weren't any clouds in the sky. We got to the school and Temari raced to the gym. I looked at the clock. It was a half an hour sooner then we got here all week. Temari wanted to leave sooner from home today because Tsunade was really mad that she was late getting here all week long. So she decided it was better to be early the last day then late the whole week. I sighed and went to my locker. I got my books for my first two classes; we were supposed to have classes for two hours and then the dance for the rest of the day. The two hours before would give the band extra time to set up and practice before everyone got there.
I went to my first class. Shino was already there. In fact, he was there before me every day. Just when does this guy get to school? I'm a half hour earlier today. I went to my desk and sat down. I put my head down and closed my eyes to sleep. Someone will wake me up before class starts, right? I drifted off to sleep with my head on my text book.
Temari P.O.V.
I got to the gym and tossed my backpack off to the side. I've learnt during the week to have my stuff for the first half of the day already in my bag. I went over to Tenten, Hinata, and Tsunade. "I see you finally came on time," Tsunade said. I nodded. "Well I'm off then, Have fun finishing the decorating."
We were almost done the gym. We had the four big flowers in the corners of the gym, big bees and flowers on the walls, and the stage was set up to look like a giant mushroom. Along the bottom of the walls were long strips of green paper to make it look like grass, and we even put some blue and white paper on the roof to make it look like a sky with clouds. The bleachers were set up to look like grass hills, and the basket ball nets were covered in green with a long brown paper taped to look like a cylinder so they looked like trees. All we had left to do was set up the light that would go over the stage so it looked like a sun. Tenten Hinata and I took some yellow spray paint and spayed the black parts on the light yellow. Then we got the ladder and put it up on the stage. I climbed it and Hinata and Tenten held the bottom. When we had it up we turned off all the lights and just had that one on.
"Perfect, this is the best looking dance ever," Tenten said happily.
"Now we just need the band to set up and we'll be all set," Hinata said. We turned the lights back on and sat down in the bleachers.
Soon Deidara, Sasori, Kisame, and Itachi came through the gym doors with some of their equipment. "Hey girls," Deidara said waving at us.
"Just set up on that stage," Tenten said point to the middle on the gym were the stage was.
"You mean on the mushroom?" Sasori asked puzzled.
"Yes the mushroom," I said. "If you actually go up and look at it you'll see it's the stage." He went over and looked. Then he gave us a thumb up and started to set up his stuff. Tenten, Hinata, and I rolled our eyes.
In a few minutes they were almost done setting up. All they had to do was hook up and amps and then do some sound tests. "I see you girls are wearing the band's shirt," Deidara said as he finished with the microphone stand.
"Of cores we are," I said with a smile.
"I just thought you girls wouldn't because you don't want to be like everyone else in the school," he told me.
"Whatever," I said as the bell rang. I got up and went over to my backpack. Kisame was in the way of getting to it because he was fooling around with one of the speakers that were there. "Can you move for a secant so I can get my backpack?" I asked.
"Can I have another hug?" he asked with a smirk.
"No," I told him.
"Then no, I can't move. I'm busy," he told me.
"I'm going to be late for class and I need my stuff," I told him annoyed.
"No," he said again.
"Kisame, move," Itachi told him in a cold voice that made me and Kisame shiver. Kisame moved without saying anything. I grabbed my bag, said good-bye to everyone, and left for class.
Kankuro P.O.V.
"This class is so boring without Tenten," Lee said when she wasn't there when class started.
"Why does it matter, we only have two classes without her. Then the dance, and then spring break," Neji told him.
"So you don't even care that your girlfriend isn't here?" Lee asked.
"Not really," he told him.
"I'm going to tell her you said that!" Lee yelled. "Then maybe she will dump you and date me!"
"That's about as likely as Hell freezing over," Neji told him.
"It is not!" Lee said angrily.
"You're right, it's less likely," Neji told him with a smirk.
"Guys stop fighting!" I yelled that them. The whole class was looking at them and the teacher had been trying to get them to stop for a while.
"Thank you Kankuro," the teacher said getting back to the lesion. Neji and Lee sank down into their seats embarrassed.
Gaara P.O.V.
I was awoken by Kiba hitting me on the head. "What the hell man," I said glaring at him.
"Nothing else was working, it was a last resort," Kiba told me.
"Actually, it was the first thing you tried," Naruto pointed out.
"Shut up, he doesn't need to know that," Kiba told him through gritted teeth.
"Too late," I said with a yawn. "Now I'm going to have to beat you up, and just before the dance too."
"No, I'm sorry!" Kiba yelled. I laughed.
"I was just kidding," I told him. He gave a sigh of relief.
"Nice one," Sasuke said high-fiving me.
"Hey, how come I never get high-fives?" Naruto asked pouting.
"Because you're not cool," Sasuke told him.
"What, I am too cool!" Naruto yelled.
"Sure you are," Kiba said rolling his eyes.
"I am!" he yelled. Kiba, Sasuke, and I laughed at him. He crossed his arms and stormed off to his desk.
"Come on Naruto, we were just kidding," Kiba told him. Naruto stuck his noise in the air.
"You're such a chick," Sasuke told him.
"I am not!" he yelled at him.
"Whatever Naruto," I said as the teacher came into the room.
Temari P.O.V.
I got to class just as the second bell rang. "You were almost late," Shikamaru told me as I sat down. "You're usually early."
"Yeah, well I had to finish setting up and then Kisame wouldn't get out of the way so I could get my bag," I told him.
"Kisame?" he asked razing an eyebrow.
"Yeah, we had to help The Akatsuki set up their stuff," I told him. Shikamaru raised an eyebrow. "Fine, we didn't help, we watched," I told him. "And Hinata and Tenten are missing classes to stay in the gym. So be happy I even came."
"Sorry, I just thought that it wasn't like you to be late," he said with a sigh. I stuck my tongue out at him. "You seem a little mad today," he said.
"No, I just don't want to be in class, I want to be in the gym," I told him.
"Then why did you come?" he asked.
"Because I wanted to be with you," I told him with a smile. He blushed.
Gaara P.O.V.
The bell rang and we went to our next class. When we got there and everyone sat down I noticed Ino, Shino, and Chouji weren't there. Naruto had apparently noticed too, because he asked where they were. "How am I supposed to know?" Kiba asked. "I don't talk to them."
"I was just wondering," Naruto told him. "Come to think of it, Hinata's not here either."
"Did you just notice that?" Sasuke asked.
"No, I knew before," he said a little embarrassed.
"She's in the gym finishing setting up," I told him.
"Well I could have been told that sooner," he said.
"I thought you knew she was gone," Sasuke said raising an eyebrow.
"I did, I just didn't know where she was," he said pouting. We rolled our eyes. "You guys are meaner to me today than normal," Naruto said with a frown.
"Yeah, why is that?" Kiba asked.
"Well I'm always like this to him, so I wouldn't know," Sasuke said with a smirk.
"It's just you that's meaner to him today, Kiba," I said.
"Oh, well I don't know," he said.
"It's probably because you miss Hinata and now you're taking it out on me," Naruto told him with a smirk.
"Whatever," Kiba said blushing a little.
"Don't worry, you'll get to see her after this class," I told him. He mumbled something under his breath as the teacher walked in.
