Sasuke's P.O.V
I can't believe it! I can't believe Kakashi Sensei made HIM my tutor! Its bad enough that he threatened me with taking me off the teams, and that he made me get a tutor but honestly, did it have to be HIM! The school Outcast, the Freak. Why oh why couldn't he have picked anyone else apart from him!
Great, just great. The guys are never gonna let me live this down, ever. Especially cause it's Gaara we're talking about. The weird, freaky kid who looks like he's a murderer almost. Argh!
Normally I'd say oh well it could be worse, but in this case, it simply cannot get any worse!
I need to calm down, I'm over-reacting, I'm sure it'll all be okay, the guys better not laugh or taunt me about this, I swear or else they'll be sorry.
Lunch now, guess I'll have to tell them now.
I walk into the cafeteria and walk towards the middle bench where Naruto, Kiba, Hinata, Neji and those annoying cheerleaders Ino and Sakura sat.
"Hey guys." I greet them all, wincing at how loud Sakura and Ino squeal out 'Sasuke-kun!'
"Hey Sasuke" Kiba asks me, Naruto being too busy kissing Hinata.
"Get a room you two." I say to them, amused to see Naruto and Hinata pulling away, Hinata blushing.
"Yea yea, what did Kakashi want with you and that freak what's his name Gaaga or something?" Naruto asks me.
"Gaara." I say almost immediately, then wonder why I bothered corrected Naruto.
"Well, apparently my grades are slipping, so Kakashi wants my grades up and made me get a tutor, says that if my grades don't pick up then he's gonna kick me out of all my teams."
"No way!" Kiba exclaimed.
"I know Sasuke! They can't kick you out; you're the best in all the teams!" Sasuke and Ino scream out together.
"I know. But that's not the worst of it; Kakashi picked that freak Gaara, of all people, to tutor me! How unfair is that!" I end up yelling the last line, letting some of my anger out.
"Wow…well damn, sucks to be you mate! Have a good time with that freak Sasuke-Kun!" I swear, I'm killing Kiba! He thinks it's funny! Argh!
"Hmm…maybe it was fate that did this, maybe it wants to teach you some sort of a lesson Sasuke."
Huh? I turn towards the one who hasn't spoken a word since I've came, and look at his milky eyes in confusion.
"What do you mean Neji? How's it 'fate'?"
"It seems like it doesn't it? That Kakashi would pick someone like Gaara to teach you."
I sat throughout the rest of lunch barely touching my food, thinking over what Neji said, and to be honest, I couldn't quite make head or tail out of it.
Gaara's P.O.V
I can't take much more of this!
I'm in science right now, and the work is confusing as hell! I mean how are you meant to remember all the equations in science? They're like over 100! Plus, it doesn't help if your teacher hates you…
Ring!
Finally! It's about time the bell went! Now I've just got to go to my locker and then I can head off home.
Oh wait, I have to meet with that stupid jock Sasuke. Why oh why did I agree to do this again? Oh, because my grades in science would go up.
I swear, sometimes I wish I was back at the sand colony, where it was peaceful and there were people who actually cared for me.
Normal P.O.V
Gaara packed his bag and headed towards his locker to get the books he'd need to do his homework.
However on the way to his locker, he passed Sakura and Ino and Kiba all talking about him, loudly at that.
"Poor Sasuke-kun! Having to waste time with that freak just so he'll be able to stay on the teams! Sasuke-kun doesn't even need any tutoring! And if he does, it should be by someone clever or normal! Not with a freak like that stupid Gaara! I swear, he looks like a murderer! I wouldn't be surprised if he'd killed anyone!" Sakura wailed at Ino and Kiba.
"Ha! Sucks to be Sasuke! Bet he feels mad as hell to be stuck with such a freak, I mean who wouldn't? Having to stay within 5 feet with that freak is enough to make me puke! Ha, you should have seen Sasuke! He was dreading it like hell!" Kiba laughed loudly while telling Ino and Sakura.
"I bet that freak is happy as hell, what with being able to spend time with Sasuke-kun! I bet you he planned this all, so that Kakashi Sensei would have to pick him to tutor Sasuke-kun!" Ino told Sakura and Kiba.
Gaara, having heard it all quickly brushed past them, feeling extremely angry.
'How dare that bastard! Making it out as though I was looking forward to it! Making as though I planned everything! I don't even want to tutor him! He's dreading it? What about me? I'd rather be at home getting beaten by my so called 'father' then tutor him!'
By then Gaara had reached the library and headed towards the meeting place and sat at a table nearby, waiting for Sasuke to arrive.
Gaara's P.O.V
Where the hell is he? It's been fifty minutes already, and he's late! It's not like I have all day here to wait for his royal highness to arrive!
I'm giving him ten more minutes, he's not here then it's his problem, not mine.
Sasuke's P.O.V
Shit! I'm late!
Damn, I knew I should have gotten out quicker, I can't believe I forgot to tell Gaara that I had practice today! Damn, he's probably already left and won't want to tutor me. I can't have that; I need him to tutor me so that I can stay in the teams! Damnit!
I raced in the library and to the place where Gaara told me to meet and saw Gaara there, starting to walk off.
"Gaara! Wait up!" I yelled, running to catch up with him.
"And just where the hell have you been?" Gaara spoke angrily while glaring at me.
Wow, the glare's pretty scary.
"Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I had team practice today, and that I also have it on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays."
"Oh so you just conveniently forgot to tell me? Have you any idea how long I've been waiting here?" Gaara nearly shouted, guess he must be really pissed off at me.
"I told you, I'm sorry. Anyway, how bout we come to mine tomorrow to study? That sound okay?"
Gaara thought about that for a minute.
'I haven't got anything to do, but I'm still pissed as hell at him for what he told his friends, but then again, do I really want to come home straight away?'
"Its fine, bet your glad you've got today free from me, after all, wouldn't want precious Sasuke-kun wasting time with the 'freak' Gaara, now would we?" Gaara threw out sarcastically, with a tinge of bitterness.
Gaara abruptly turned and headed off in the opposite direction, leaving me standing here stunned and confused as hell.
What the hell did he mean by that?
TBC…
Okay, I just re-read this, and I didn't think much of this chapter, could have been a whole lot better I reckon, but its all I could come up with unfortunately.
The characters are really OOC, especially in this chapter, for which I'm sorry. But as this is an AU, I figured it wouldn't matter as much if they were a bit OOC. I'm still trying to get the characters right and I've still not read or watched Naruto…
I'm REALLY SOWWY for the long update, but I had a bit of writers block for this chapter, plus I was poorly twice these past two weeks…
I hope you enjoyed the chapter, even though I don't think it was very good.
Big Thank You's To: Aries1391, Chronic-Fever, Aokichu, Spork Ai, Littleanikaze, TheFutureFreaksMeOut, Junsui Kegasu Fier and Shadowquest for Reviewing!
REALLY SOWWY FOR THE LATE UPDATE!
Especially sorry to Spork Ai, really didn't mean to take that long, sorry for making you wait so long!
Oh, and this chapter is dedicated to Live 8, and to the 'Make Poverty History' concert. Live 8 rocked!
