Chapter 3

The Overly Active Gym Teacher

BEEP

BEEP

BEEP

"Argh…." Sakura said groggily. She smashed her alarm clock, got up and rubbed her eyes. It was Tuesday…she had gym. "If there's anything I hate about school, it's gym."

She did her normal routine. Got up, took a shower, brushed her teeth, put on her clothes, ate breakfast, watched a little tv, then at 7:30 am, she left for school.

(AN: I just copied what I do in the morning ;;)

AT SCHOOL

Sakura met up with her friends. Tenten, Hinata and Naruto.

"Ohayo Sakura-chan!" Naruto said cheerfully. Everyone else said ohayo and went inside the school building. They were walking through the halls when Sakura caught a glimpse of Raiku again. Except he was bandaged around his head where Sasuke ax kicked him.

"Um, let's walk the long way!" Sakura said eagerly. She didn't want to see Raiku. They all nodded and turned around. They went into their class and sat in their seats. Sasuke wasn't there yet. Then 5 minutes before class was supposed to start, he showed up and sat down next to Sakura. Sakura got her daily dose of glares from the girls, again with a few exceptions. Then she remembered. "Oi! Tenten-chan!" She yelled to Tenten in the first row.

"Nani?" Tenten replied turning.

"Remember what you promised?" Sakura said cheerfully and held up her pinky. Tenten blushed and looked towards Neji. It seemed like he was sleeping, but he had a sixth sense. He felt a pair of eyes look at him, and he opened his. Tenten had his full attention. She blushed and looked away.

"Ohayo Tenten." Neji said to her, completely emotionless.

'Man! He's just as plain as Sasuke-kun!' Sakura thought to herself.

"O-ohayo Neji-kun." Tenten replied blushing a very deep crimson. Hinata was blushing too. It seems she blushes for anything that has to do with love. Either that or just blushing because Naruto sits right next to her.

An hour later, Kakashi walked in. "Ohayo class! Sorry I'm late. I was lost on—" again he was interrupted.

"—on the road of life. God Kakashi. Think of another excuse." His entire class said. Kakashi sweat dropped.

"Well, today I'm not going to be teaching. I'm going to leave you with Gai-sensei. So please leave to the gym room and enjoy your PE!" with that, he vanished. Everyone gave out a complaining sigh.

"What's so bad about Gai-sensei?" Sakura asked Sasuke. He looked back at her.

"He's perky, overly active, and Lee, his favorite student, recommended that we wear these tacky, green and tight body suits. It's embarrassing." Sasuke sighed. Everyone, including Sasuke and Sakura got up, went to the locker rooms and changed into those horrifying suits. Sakura found one in her locker. Then they all walked to the gym and waited for Gai to arrive.

After 5 minutes, he finally arrived.

"OHAYO CLASS! ARE WE ALL BURNING WITH YOUTHFUL EXCITEMENT TODAY!" Gai exclaimed. All of his students scoffed and complained.

"GOOD! FIRST EXERCISE, CLIMB UP THE ROPE AND GO THROUGH THE MONKEY BARS! YOU! MISS "NEW FACE", YOU CAN BE WITH GROUP C!" He continued smiling and doing the "nice guy" pose with a thumbs up. They all separated into their groups and did the exercise. In group C, there was Tenten, Hinata, Sasuke, Neji, Naruto, 2 other guys and herself. They were the smallest group since they were also the most talented. They all met up and did their assigned exercise. Sasuke was the quickest.

"NEXT! I WANT YOU ALL TO PARTNER UP WITH SOMEONE IN YOUR GROUP AND DO SIT UPS! CHOP CHOP!" He exclaimed again with a smirk.

Naruto and Neji, Hinata and Tenten, and the 2 guys partnered. That left Sasuke and Sakura. Sakura blushed as Sasuke walked over to her.

"You wanna go first?" Sasuke asked.

"Uh…sure." She blushed again and lied on her back in the sit up position. Sasuke held her feet firmly.

"BEGIN!" Gai signaled. Sakura was zooming. She had a strong stomach and she was very fast at sit ups since she used to do martial arts. (AN: Ironic. She did martial arts and she can't defend herself againsts perverts like Raiku.)

When she did her sit ups, her face got very close to Sasuke's. She managed to hide her blushes a little. Sasuke just smirked at this and leaned his face a little closer. Both their foreheads collided.

"Ow! Sasuke-kun!" Sakura glared at him. He just kept smirking.

"Gomen." He said coolly, still smirking. She continued her sit ups and managed to do 87 in 2 minutes. It was Sasuke's turn. He lied on his back and Sakura held his feet down.

"BEGIN!" Gai signaled once again.

Sasuke began. Much faster than Sakura! Sakura could hardly keep up with counting. But, luckily, Sasuke was counting in his head. Once again, their faces got close and this time, their noses touched each other gently. Sakura tried to ignore it, but then he sat up like he was frozen in his sit ups and stared her directly in the eyes. Their faces were only at least a centimeter apart. Sakura blushed and tried to look away, but Sasuke did it instead and continued doing his sit ups with a smirk on his face.

"TIME!" Gai threw up his arm. "NOW I WANT YOU TO ADD UP HOW MANY SIT UPS YOU EACH DID AND TELL ME AS I CALL YOUR NAME! WHOEVER DID THE MOST, DOESN'T HAVE TO DO PUSH UPS, AND MAY BE DISMISSED!" Everyone was chattering trying to add their sit ups. Neji and Naruto together did 142. Neji did 112 and Naruto did 30. That's kinda lame. Hinata and Tenten did 134. Hinata did 68 and Tenten did 66. Pretty close. Sasuke and sakura counted theirs up, and ended up with 236. Sakura did 87, Sasuke did 149.

"Wow! You're amazing Sasuke-kun!" Sakura said out loud. She knew there were lots of girls giving Sakura the death glare and many guys giving Sasuke the death glare. (AN: Wow. They're perfect aren't they XP)

"LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE SOME WINNERS! SASUKE AND THE NEW GIRL….uh….SAKURA! YOU MAY BE DISMISSED!" he again gave a thumbs up. Naruto was kinda jealous cause it was ramen day in the cafeteria and they got to be first! They both left the gym together and went to eat lunch. Sakura got her food first since Sasuke had to try and avoid some of his fangirls. He eventually got lunch though at sat at Sakura's table.

"Wow. I'm sorry but…Gai-sensei's…a freak!" Sakura exclaimed eating her noodles.

"Hn." He replied with no emotion.

"…can't you give a straight answer?" Sakura said complaining.

"Yes."

"………………….well?"

"Well what?"

"Are you going to give me a straight answer?"

"I just did."

"No you didn't."

"Yes I did. When you asked if I could give a straight answer, I said yes. That's a straight answer."

"Eh, I mean about Gai-sensei."

"What about him?"

Sakura got irritated. "Eh…nevermind."

He simply smirked and ate his lunch quietly.

END OF CHAPTER

Hehe. Again, it's a little slow, but the next chapter has romance between Sasuke and Sakura. I've been having ideas for another story after I finish this one. Hehe.
