Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto and any other things that will be mentioned besides the plot. Lord knows if I did Sakura would have had amazing character development and ended up with Gaara instead. Anyways, on to the next chapter!
Gaara's POV
"GAARA YOU ASS BETTER BE AWAKE AND GETTING READY UP THERE!" I heard my sister should from downstairs, she was most probably in the kitchen attempting to make us breakfast. I reluctantly got up from the comfort of my bed and went into the bathroom which was connected to my room. I stepped into the shower letting the warm water wash over my body as my mind slowly began to wake up. After scrubbing my body clean, I exited the shower and went to brush my teeth and moisturize my skin. Temari barged into my room as I walked out from my bathroom with just a towel wrapped around my waist.
"Oh good, you're awake. I thought I was going to have to drag you out if bed." she said nervously. "Breakfast is ready and coffee is brewing. Kankuro and I will be waiting for you so hurry up, we leave in 20 minutes." she said with a small smile.
"Hn" was all I said to her before she shut my door. I wasn't really a morning person and my siblings we well aware of that. They tried their best not to get on my nerves in the mornings. I made my way to my closet and decided to wear short sleeve plain black t-shirt and baggy black cargo pants paired with my white Nike sneakers. To complete the look, I put on a silver Cuban link chain and a silver watch. Once satisfied, I grabbed my school bag and made my way downstairs where I sound my siblings chatting about the new school and what they expected to find when they got there.
"I saw on Ino's profile that she schools there, maybe I'll get to be in the same classes with her and actually get to officially ask her to be my girlfriend" Kankuro said to Tem. He was like a love sick puppy, so unusual to see him like that but nonetheless was good for him.
"Oh, you're right on time Gaara. Here you go" Tem said as she handed me my coffee in a disposable coffee cup. "Naruto called and said we should leave right away so you're going to have to have your breakfast on the go" she explained as she grabbed her bag and tossed Kankuro his.
"cool" I said as I grabbed a piece of toast and followed my siblings out the door making sure to lock up. We decided to use Temari's car for the first day then tomorrow we shall all use our respective forms of transport. I was sitting in the backseat starring out the window when I saw a flash of pink. There were four girls running out of a house in their street into a car but the pink haired one caught his attention the most.
'Could they possibly go to the same school as us? Which one them actually stays there?' I thought to myself as I watched the pink haired girl yell something to the brunette. No doubt telling her to hurry up.
With that he proceeded to drink his coffee and finish his toast while listening to his siblings talk about their goals for the year.
Sakura's POV
Just as I had feared, we were going to be late for our first day in school after the holidays. "Ten-Ten, hurry up we're going to be late!" I yelled as I ran to my car, throwing in our bags.
"I'm coming!" Ten yelled back as the put up her hair in her signature hairstyle. "Ino, pass my one of my pins please" she said to the blonde who was applying lip gloss.
"Sure, here you go" Ino said as she threw a pin to Ten which she caught at ease with her being a martial arts and weapon specialist, she had pretty quick reflexes.
Hinata was long done and ready. She was currently in the kitchen eating her breakfast while Sakura was pushing the other two girls to get out of the house. Eventually everyone was out and ready.
"If I get there and our spot is already claimed you two won't hear the last of it" Sakura said sternly to Ino and Ten. The two shrunk into their seats as I pulled out of the drive way and sped to school. wasn't really a morning person and worse hadn't had my morning coffee yet. Hopefully there'd be time for me to grab one before homeroom.
Gaara's POV
Kankuro woke me up when we arrived at school, somehow through Temari's scary driving I fell asleep. We spotted Naruto waiting under a huge cherry blossom tree. Once he noticed us walking up to him, he began to wave franticly grinning widely at us.
"Good morning guys!" Naruto said, actually no, he YELLED! It was only 7AM and somehow the blonde was already energetic. "We have about 30 minutes before classes actually start" he said
"Then why the fuck did you have us come this early?" I asked him rather annoyed by his loudness.
"Oh, well because I wanted you guys to meet some friends of mine. They should be here any moment now" he said looking at his phone. Just then a red jeep SRT hellcat came speeding in parked next to Temari's silver range rover.
'That's the same car I saw earlier by that house in our street' I thought to myself in realisation. The brunette from earlier jumped out from the back seat followed by a blonde and they ran towards where we were and were soon after followed by the pinkette and dark-blue haired girl.
"You guys are so dead when I catch you" the pinkette yelled.
"Naruto help us!" the blonde and the brunette yelled as they ran for dear life with animated tears streaming down their face. They both hid behind him, cowering. I noticed Kankuro's eyes widen slightly at the sight of the blonde but ignored it. She hadn't seemed to notice him yet though.
"Naruto if you know what's good for you, you'll move out of the way" the pinkette said manically. I found this amusing.
'She looks so cute when she's mad' I caught myself thinking and immediately dismissed the thought. 'When had I ever thought as anything to be cute?' I thought as I shook my head. I caught Temari looking at me with a smug look, to which I returned with a deathly glare but this seemed not to affect her.
Looking back at the scene in front of me I saw Naruto offer the girl a Starbucks caramel macchiato which seemed to calm the pinkette down. I watched as she took a sip and sighed contently. It was as if the demon that held her captive a few minutes ago had been exorcized from her. 'she's kind of like me a bit' I smirked at the thought as I watched her enjoy her drink.
I was soon ripped away from my fantasy world when Temari poked my sides lightly "what's this I see?" she mused as she gave me a wink. I just sighed and ignored her finally tuning in to whatever it is that Naruto was saying.
"Alright now that your bloodlust has come to an end, I'd like to introduce you guys to my friends." Naruto began. "The blondie over here is Ino" Naruto said as he pointed to the blonde that was hiding behind him a few minutes ago. She was dressed in a rather provocative manner, which I found to be disgusting. she was wearing a really short purple body con dress and purple heels to match.
'I understand there is no uniforms at this school but surely there had to be some kind of dress code' I thought to myself. My brother on the other hand seemed to be trying to process the situation in front of him. "Hi, nice to meet you guys" Ino said as she smiled sweetly at us.
"That's Ten-Ten, she's a martial arts and weapon specialist so I suggest you don't mess with her. She's also an amazing skater along with Sakura" Naruto bragged about his friend, making her blush a little. Ten-Ten just waved and smiled at us.
"The one who was acting demon possessed a few minutes ago is Sakura" he said pointing at the pinkette who seemed to be in her own world at that moment "she's not herself without her morning coffee and this also happens to be her favourite spot in the school apart from the roof" Naruto continued.
"Last but not least, this is Hinata" Naruto started out. Kankuro and I gave him knowing looks. Naruto had mentioned her once to us back in Suna when we went out for drinks. He's like her for a while and according to the blush on her face she liked him too but they both weren't aware of this. "She is a very good guitarist and singer. Well, they all are but she's got that special thing about her" Naruto said smiling at the girl. She shyly waved at us and we the same with me only nodding at her.
"There's also Shikamaru but he's probably already in class or dosing off somewhere. Asides from Sakura, he's one of the smartest kids in school" Naruto said "Alright guys" he said as he turned to the girls "HEY!SAKURA!" Naruto yelled getting her attention.
"Hmm? OH MY GOD!" Sakura exclaimed. "I am so sorry for that. I get wrapped up in my own world when I am drinking this stuff. It's soooo good!" she said as she smiled apologetically. "My name is Sakura Haruno and-" she started off only to be interrupted by Naruto.
"And I was about to introduce them to you guys" Naruto said glaring at Sakura playfully.
"Oh sorry, my bad." She said slightly embarrassed as she took a sip pf her coffee trying to hide her light blush. I found this rather adorable. Maybe this school wasn't going to be so bad.
Sakura's POV
"Alright ladies, this here is Temari" Naruto said as he pointed at the girl with dirty blonde hair. "Kankuro" he continued this time pointing at a man with messy brown hair similar to that of Ino's date from yesterday "and Gaara Sabaku" he concluded pointing at the man with messy red hair, he had a kanjii tattoo on his forehead
'I wonder what the story behind that is' I thought to myself eventually my eyes were captured by his cold sea foam eyes
'His eyes...they are so lonely, cold and yet so dreamy' I caught myself thinking. 'No, this is the last thing I need right now. I can't allow myself to have such thoughts' I reprimanded myself in my head and that's when I realised, he was looking at me too.
Normal POV
The two just starred at each other for what felt like an eternity. Both captured and mesmerised by the other. You could see the curiosity in their eyes. Though their worlds were different, they couldn't help but wonder what this could be.
'She's so beautiful' he thought.
'He's so perfect' she thought.
When the realization of what was going on hit, they immediately snapped out of it and looked to the side in attempt to hide their blushes. This didn't go unnoticed by their friends.
"Hey, aren't you the guy who went out with Ino the other night? Sakura said in attempt to get everyone's attention from her and Gaara. Gaara noticed and appreciated that. He hated it when he was the centre of attention.
"I was just about to ask the blonde the same actually" Gaara said, helping Sakura shift the attention to his brother and her best friend.
"Uh, yes, he is. I didn't know you went to this school" Ino said to Kankuro blushing madly. "Oh, uh, yeah, we recently transferred this side. We were having so much fun I forgot to mention it" he said scratching the back of his head.
"Aww you two look adorable" Ten laughed teasing the two. "As much as I'd like to tease you guys all day, we have ten minutes till we have to be in class" Ten said.
"Right, have you guys collected your schedules yet?" Sakura asked the sand siblings
"No, not yet. Naruto is yet to show us where to collect them" Gaara spoke up rather calmly surprising both his siblings and Naruto.
"Naruto, you mean to say you've been here wasting precious time instead of helping them out" Sakura said sternly looking at Naruto.
"Well, I wouldn't really say it was a waste of time." Gaara said flirtatiously while holding eye contact with Sakura, yet again shocking everyone who knew him personally.
"Oh, is that so?" Sakura asked smirking as she walked up to him and was now looking up at him. The was hardly any space left between the two.
"Certainly" Gaara said looking down at her rather playfully. Sakura just smiled at this and eventually walked away from him.
"Come on girls let's go. Naruto make sure to do what you need to do okay?" Sakura said laughing at the reactions her friends had on. She wasn't the type to flirt openly with a guy, her friends knew this. "See you guys later" she said as she winked to Gaara and walked away leaving her friends there in utter shock. They snapped out of their shock and ran after her.
"Hey! Wait for us!" the girls yelled in unison.
Gaara watched at her as she disappeared into the school fighting a smile off his face.
'She's certainly interesting." he thought as he let a small smile appear on this usually stoic face.
"WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY LITTLE BROTHER?" Temari questioned as she held on to Kankuro dramatically who too was still in shock.
"What do you mean by that? Gaara asked playing dumb which caused both his siblings to fall back dramatically. "Now come on, shouldn't we get going?"
"Ri-right" Naruto stumered, still trying to process what happened as he led them into the school to the principal's office.
Little did they know they were being watched by an onyx eyed, chicken butt and he was not in the slightest bit happy about what had just occurred.
'I won't let you take my blossom away from me' he thought sadistically
