Summery: It's not easy being a high school freshman. When your elder brother is a senior and the lead singer of Akatsuki, a popular band, you're the obsession of every girl in your grade, and the guy you hated since Kindergarden is starting to look attractive to you, things can get complicated. Add crazy teachers to the mix, and you're in for a wild ride.
Warning: SHONEN-AI CONTENT AHEAD!

"Don't you people have your own homes?", Sasuke demanded, annoyed, as he woke up Friday morning to laughter. He had just suffered through the worst four days of his life, and wanted to sleep before he subjected himself to more torture with his psychotic teachers-well, Iruka was nice, and Kurenai seemed OK. "What's so funny, anyway?"
"Oh! Sasuke-Kun! You must see this!", Kisame called. He was howling with laughter. That wasn't anything new-what spiked Sasuke's curiosity was the fact that he could hear Sasori laughing.
Sasuke pushed open the door to Itachi's room, afraid of what he might find-perhaps the group had snuck into Orochimaru's classroom and stolen all of his sheet music. No. Sasori wouldn't laugh at that-he was the responsible one. He would have taken the sheet music back, beating the other three to oblivion in the process.
Sasuke's jaw dropped. Itachi and Deidara were wearing women's kimonos, complete with high-heeled wooden sandles like the ones Tsunade often wore.
Deidara's kimono was a soft pink color, with little birds in blazing silver all over it. His nails were painted a bubble-gum pink color, and his hair fell completely loose around his shoulders. He wore pink lipstick, and what looked like mascara and eyeliner.
His own brother wore a red kimono with a floral print on it. Itachi had painted his nails red and wore his hair up in two buns on his head. Itachi had done his makeup like a geisha might-his face was painted white, and he had bright red lipstick on his mouth. The younger Uchiha's eyes widened.
"It's a promotional for our next concert", Sasori explained when he saw Sasuke's horrified expression. We're calling it "The Softer Side of Life"...so Itachi and Deidara are showing off their softer sides..."
At this, Kisame howled in laughter again. "Showing off their gay sides..."
"Keep it up, Shark Boy, and Deidara and I will make you and Sasori wear the dresses", Itachi said.
"Leave me out of this!", Sasori cried.
Sasuke shook his head. Had Itachi always been so WEIRD? He looked at Deidara, who was being oddly quiet, and blushed a little. Sasuke had always been attracted to blonds, and Deidara's appearance was so feminine, it was easy to forget he was a boy. In a kimono, he made a very beautiful girl. "You do know Toby is going to rape you if he sees you dressed like that, don't you?"
Deidara flashed Sasuke a smile that could have melted the iciest of hearts. "I know it, un. That's why Sasori-danna bought me this, un". Here he held up a small object attached to his key ring-mace.
Sasori blushed almost as red as his hair. "Well...it's just...You know...I didn't want some man attacking him thinking he's a girl..."
Itachi clasped his hands on Sasori's shoulders. "How sweet! You care!" Sasori shoved Itachi's hands off of him. "Careful or we won't protect you...oh, wait. You won't need it. You make an ugly girl".
Itachi rolled his eyes. "I still make a sexier girl than you-Sasuke!"
Sasuke, who had been trying to sneak out the door, stopped short. "Yes?", he asked, scared of what was coming next.
"Who makes a prettier girl?"
"I refuse to even acknowledge that I was asked that question".
"Aww. You're no fun". Itachi smiled deviously at his younger brother. "Want a ride to school?"
Sasuke shook his head. "Nope. My bus driver, like everyone else on the planet, is a much safer driver than you. Besides, I'm ashamed to know you when you're dressed like that". He then stalked out of Itachi's room, wondering how he managed to be the younger brother of such a weirdo.
Sasuke sighed as he trudged to the Band room. Band was certainly the weirdest period in his schedual. This was because both his English teacher, Jiraiya, and the health teacher, Tsunade, had their free periods during that time. The two were often seen in Orochimaru's classroom, usually with something alcholic in their hands. He soon understood why they were known as the Legendary Three-they were legends for still having jobs. Sasuke felt sorry for anyone who had had the misfortune of teaching them when they had been in their youth. No doubt their teachers had drunk themselves to death.
"Hey, Jiraiya. Who am I?", Orochimaru was asking as Sasuke arrived, first as always, to the classroom. His startlingly pale skin was tinged a slight pink, showing that he had been drinking entirely too much. He held his arms aloft, indicating a huge chest.
"Oh, that's easy. You're Tsunade", Jiraiya replied. His face was beet red due to the fact that his complexion was much darker than Orochimaru's.
Tsunade, who was about as red as Jiraiya, went even redder. "Orochimaru!", she gasped. "No fair!"
Jiraiya laughed and rubbed chalk on his face. He was now as white as Itachi had been with the geisha makeup on. "Ok, Tsunade. Who am I?", he asked, Tsunade laughed. "Orochimaru!"
This was how the rest of the class came into see the teachers-Jiraiya with a face full of chalk, and Orochimaru with his hands held out. Most of the class thought this was hilarious, but Sasuke was embarassed for them. Five minutes later, Jiraiya and Tsunade were in the back room, where the instruments were usually held, trying to get ahold of themselves. Orochimaru, still pink in the face, attempted to get the class going. They were going to determine which instruments were best for them to play by breaking into groups and having them test out different instruments.
Sasuke was placed in a group with Naruto, Toby, a girl named Sakura who was in his fan club and annoyed him to no end, and a boy named Kabuto, with whom he wasn't very familiar. He seemed pleasent enough, though maybe that was just because Kabuto didn't talk his ear off about how Sasuke should marry him or jump around hyperly and annoy the whole class. They were stationed at the percussion area first. Naruto beat the crap out of a bell kit with such force Kabuto pulled the mallets from his hands. "No, no", he scolded in a quiet voice. "You'll blow someone's ear drum out like that." He then proceeded to demonstrate the proper way to hit the bells, playing a tune that Sasuke reconized as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
When he finished, Kabuto smiled at them. "There. Now you try", he handed the mallets back to Naruto. Naruto tried to imitate Kabuto's skillful playing, but unfortunately, skillful, Naruto, and music did not go in the same sentance. Kabuto's hands flew to his ears as Naruto masacreed the bell kit. He winced. "Ah...maybe you'll do better with another instrument...", he said, looking doubtful, as he pried the mallets from Naruto's hands. "Here. You try", he said, handing the mallets to Sakura.
Sasuke waited patiently for his turn to try the bell kits. Unfortunately, Toby decided that he was above waiting for his turn to play. Or maybe he simply thought that because he was Itachi's cousin he would be a natural master at music. Whatever the case may be, Toby picked up a pair of drumsticks and struck the poor, unsuspecting drum. He then proceeded to strike with force, trying to tap out the rythem of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. "Not so hard!", Kabuto scolded, rushing over to Toby to try to take the sticks from him. "The material is not as strong as you think. It is pulled tight, but you can still put a hole in it. Stop". Toby's arm flew up, and he smacked Kabuto across the face with the stick. Kabuto pressed his hand to his face and watched helplessly as Toby drove the stick through the drum's face.
"You're in trouble now", Naruto sang
"I'm going to kill you, Toby!", Sasuke hissed as they left Orochimaru's classroom a half an hour later.
"That's if Kabuto-san doesn't kill him first. ", Naruto said. "He looked pretty mad"
"No shit Shirlock. He has every right to be angry. We ALL got detention for after school today thanks to this moron", Sasuke's eyes practically flashed red.
"Hey, I tried to get you all out of it. I can't help it if the pervert finds all of us attractive and wanted the excuse to keep us and molest us". Toby smiled innocently. His eyes widened as Deidara walked by in his pink kimono, his hair gleaming in the light. "Catch you later, sexiest person in this school spotted" He ran off in pursuit of Deidara, who seemed able to run quite quickly in wooden sandles and kimono.
"Uhh...we're here...", Naruto said as they reached the gym a few moments later.
Sasuke sighed. "I see that..."
Shikamaru and Choji then came by then to retrieve Naruto. The boys seemed to remember they were supposed to hate eachother then, because Sasuke walked ahead of Naruto and his friends into the gym, and changed his clothes without another glance at the blond.
When school ended that day Sasuke trudged to the band room to do his detention instead of catching the bus and going home. He was angriest because now he had to go home with Itachi.
"Good. You're all here", Orochimaru said as Sasuke entered. Sasuke was actually the last one to reach someplace, because he really didn't want to sit in here for an hour.
Orochimaru strode to the board and wrote "I am a moron and I destroy school property, please smack me". "You will all copy this sentance 100 times. Get to it".
Sasuke glared at Toby, his eye twitching. Orochimaru could not have picked a more humiliating sentance. He grit his teeth and started to write.
After a little while, Sasuke looked around the classroom. Orochimaru was staring intently at Kabuto. Ah. So Toby wasn't totally correct. Orochimaru wasn't interested in all of their virginity-just Kabuto's. This didn't sit well with Sasuke, because if the poor boy got raped, it would be his faulty in a round-about way, because it was Toby's fault they were here, and Toby was their cousin.
When the hour was finally over, everyone handed what they had to Orochimaru and redied themselves to leave.
"Ah. Kabuto? Can I see you for a minute?", Orochimaru asked. Sasuke, Naruto, and Toby exchanged looks.
Look at us, jumping to conclusions because of what Itachi told us Sasuke thought. Kabuto's writing is probably messy...but he's not keeping Naruto...
Sakura had already left the classroom, and Naruto and Toby where right behind her. Sasuke hurried out the door, too, eager to start his own weekend. He waited outside the door for a few minutes, just incase he heard screaming, but no screams came. Satisfied that either they were both OK, or one was dead, Sasuke hurried away to go find Itachi and enjoy two glorious days of relaxation before he started another week in hell
A/N: Chapter 2 is done!. The parts with Kabuto and the bell kits/drums are actually based off me trying to instruct someone to play the bell kit in middle-school band. Thankfully he didn't break anything. Drums are very, very hard to break, after all. Anyhow, hope you enjoyed reading it!
