Chapter 8-Bonding Secretly

It was a Thursday and in the Haruno household, a pink-haired girl was lying down on her bed, sleeping. She was still exhausted from yesterday with all the sticking up for herself and all that crap. Sakura heard her alarm clock ring and made her wake up. She groggily got up and slowly walked to the bathroom and prepared for the day ahead of her.

She left the house and went to school a bit early but a lot of students were already there. She was informed along with everyone else, that there would be an assembly in the gym that day so she first went to the classroom to put her stuff down. Everyone in the class were there already, even Sasuke. Her fan boys started smiling once she swung the classroom door and approached her.

"Sakura-chan!" "Please be my girlfriend, Sakura-chan!" "I think you were awesome yesterday!" Her fan boys began to crowd her. The whole entire school knew about what happened yesterday since rumors started spreading around like lightning just as soon as it happened. This also made Sakura gain more guys for her fan club.

Hinata was also in the classroom, talking to Naruto and the others. She saw the crowds gather and say her friends name 'Sakura' so she approached the crowd and saw Sakura there, in a confused state. She looked like she didn't really get the events that were happening around her. She just froze there with all the boys asking her questions about being their girl and all.

"Oh, Sakura! What happened to you?" Hinata was worried for her friend. Sakura wasn't really claustrophobic but she felt really dizzy and didn't really have all the time to answer all their questions since they were too many. She saw Hinata standing in one of the people in the crowd so she approached her. Just then,

"BRINNNGGGG!" The bell rang and everyone went to the gym for the assembly. Sakura ran to her place and dropped her bag there and left with Hinata to get to the gym. As they were walking towards the gym, Hinata was trying to make her friend relax a bit, judging by the thick crowd a while ago, she predicted that Sakura would feel all dizzy.

"Sakura, are you alright? Don't worry, we are almost there in the gym, you can rest there." Hinata had a concerned look on her face for Sakura. Sakura was already feeling fine, she wasn't so dizzy anymore. They finally reached the gym, it was very large. This was Sakura's first time inside. It was really compact with all the students who were in the school so Itachi was there too. (There school had grade 7, and high school year 1, 2, 3, and 4) They took a seat near the front and started talking. Suddenly, a voice boomed out from the speakers that were set all around the gym. The principal of the school was talking on the microphone and settled everyone in the gym. The principal was a girl, blonde and was kind of pretty.

"Everyone, settle down! Now, the reason I called for this assembly is because its that time again for you to vote for the school's student council." Everyone started whispering about it. Then they hushed again as they principal started talking again.

"It will be composed of 2 people, the president and vice-president." She started explaining the rules on how to vote and what to do.

"You are free to choose which position you want to run for and you must have a grade passing for the passed years. You need not elect for the person. Do not force yourself to run for a position and the elections will be held next week. Oh and by the way, new students are allowed to run." She then stared at Sakura for a while then spoke up before she left.

"That is all! Vote wisely and have fun." She left after those words and the noise flooded back again. Everyone was excited already for the elections. Many were planning to run. Hinata and Sakura started talking with each other.

"I think you should run Sakura-chan! Didn't you hear? New students are allowed to run!" Hinata was excited too. She wanted to be sort of like a campaign manager for Sakura. But if Sakura did run, she wouldn't need it since she was already popular with the boys.

"I'm not really sure I mean I'm sure there are other people who are more experienced than I am like Sasuke or Ino-pig." She wanted to run but she was scared that she might not win and all.

"Don't worry! You are as good as any other! And smart too!" She smiled and tried her best to cheer her up. Sakura thought for awhile as they exited the gym going to where they're first class was for the day was going to be, biology. They had their books, pens and notebooks with them already by the time they reached the lab. Sakura hates biology class. Whenever they would have to dissect something, Sakura would end up vomiting or something.

They reached the room and sat down. They talked for a while then the teacher finally came in. He looked somewhat identical to one of their classmates, Lee. Sakura would get the shivers whenever the two would strike a pose. She knew that Lee was part of her fan club. Heck, he even approached that morning along with the other boys.

"Good morning class! Today, we will dissect a…frog!" The teacher's name was guy. He was smiling the whole time but the class was complaining some were scared though. Naruto though liked frogs except he didn't like dissecting them.

"What! A frog? Why a frog? It is so innocent and cute!" Naruto, as usual, was the first one to complain about it. The class stared at him because none of them thought that frogs were…cute and….innocent. Though, they had to agree that they didn't want to dissect a frog. Sakura was really scared and frightened. Hinata tried to cheer her up again. Hinata didn't really hate them nor love them. She used to hate them actually, but Naruto taught her that frogs weren't so bad.

"Don't worry class, the frogs aren't alive anymore so you will have an easier time to dissect them!" He struck his guy pose and the whole class just stared at him and (anime-style) sweat-dropped. He handed each their frogs in front of them, on their desk.

Sakura just stared at the frog for awhile then heard someone say her name and turned around to see who it was. Sasuke had been calling her name.

"What's the matter, Sakura? Scared of a dead frog?" He teased her while smirking. Sakura was furious at him. Seriously, at that point, she really wanted to smack him in the head. She just glared at him then answered at him.

"N-no! Of course not! I was just looking at the frog before I dissect it." She tried her best to lie but she sucked at it.

"Whatever." He answered as he got his dissecting knife and sliced open the frog. Sakura just stared at it. Good thing the frog didn't have any blood anymore because if it did, she would have really barfed. She looked forward again and at her frog.

She saw Hinata was also cutting open the frog starting from its chest. Sakura trembled as she got her dissecting knife and sliced the frog open, very slowly and carefully, though she was really scared. Once she finished she ran to the bathroom and washed her hands.

As she dashed out the room, Sasuke snorted. When Sakura came back in, everyone looked at her and laughed. Sakura couldn't help but blush in embarrassment. She quietly sat down on her desk beside Hinata as she was still blushing. She looked over her shoulder to see the Uchiha behind her, who stared back at her. They both glared at each other then Sasuke started to laugh. This made Sakura even more furious at him that she felt like kicking him very hard. She faced front and pretended as if nothing happened.

"BRINGGGG!" The class was finally over and Sakura couldn't be any happier. After the period after biology, it was finally lunch time and Sakura went with Hinata to the lockers. They carried their books with them to the lockers and reached it. As Sakura slowly opened her locker, dozens of frogs jumped out. Some even jumped on her! She screamed and dropped her books.

"Ha-ha! Like my gift?" Sasuke appeared out of the corner, near where Sakura and Hinata were standing. Sakura kept on screaming while Hinata was bewildered at what was happening. Nobody seemed to be near the locker area since they were all in the lunch room. She stopped screaming once she heard Sasuke and turned to him. Now, they were eye to eye.

"YOU!" Sakura screamed while Sasuke kept on laughing and teasing her.

"I asked Sr. Guy if I can have some frogs and since my parents owned the school, he let me have some but they were too much for me to keep. I remembered that you LOVE frogs and pity them so I thought you'd be afraid if I gave you these." Anyone can tell that her was having fun at this, the teasing and laughing, even Sakura.

Sakura was able to wipe off the frogs now. All the frogs were jumping everywhere in the hallway. She picked up her books and ignored Sasuke.

"Let's go, Hinata-chan." While she was walking towards the lunch room, they had to pass Sasuke. As Sakura 'accidentally' hit his shoulder with hers, she whispered.

"Let the games begin." Sakura turned on the corner from where Sasuke came out awhile ago. Sasuke stopped laughing and turned around to watch her leave. As she left his sight, Sasuke looked around and saw the frogs scattered and jumping everywhere. He fixed his eyes on something that caught it. It was a picture of Sakura with a guy. It was stuck on the locker door of Sakura. She forgot to lock it (How forgetful). Sasuke walked closer to it and stared at it more intently. The guy in the picture looked much older than him and he looked as handsome as Sasuke. He felt a small pang in his chest. Was it jealousy?

He felt it stagger him just to see that picture. 'Shit, why am I feeling this? Wait. Why am I even bothering to look at this?' He thought to himself as he shook his head sideward and closed the locker door. He left the locker area and didn't even bother to fix his mess.

Lunch room…

"Hey Sakura, I don't think it's a good idea to pick a fight with Uchiha." Hinata sat beside Sakura on the table.

"Why not? He deserves punishment for being so arrogant and bullying innocent kids." Sakura was still sort of pissed at Sasuke for what he did awhile ago. She was thinking of a way to get back at Sasuke.

"Ya, but still…" Hinata was still worried for her pink-haired friend.

Sasuke entered the lunch room and checked if Sakura was already inside. Sakura and Hinata didn't really sit very far from where Sasuke was standing. At last, Sakura thought of a brilliant way to get back at Sasuke. She saw Sasuke standing in front of the door so she stood up to call him.

"Hey, Sasuke!" He heard her call his name so he turned is head to where Sakura was and shouted back.

"What!" Everyone kept quiet and stared at Sasuke's face. 'Hell yeah! Perfect shot!' Sakura said in her head with joy. Sasuke's face was full of mashed potatoes. She shot a spoonful of it at his face. She started laughing at the look of Sasuke.

"That's payback!" Sasuke was really fumed at Sakura that he scooped a hand full of mashed potatoes from Naruto's plate (Yeah, he sat near Sasuke) and threw it at Sakura but missed, instead, hitting another person behind her. Someone inside the lunch room, who was watching what happened, shouted out.

"FOOD FIGHT!" Soon after, everyone was throwing food at each other and all around the place. Naruto started getting irritated at everyone for throwing all the good food he like in front of his eyes.

"NO! Don't thro---argh!... Wait, wait not that!...NO!" Everywhere he looked, particles of food were flying around, thrown by the different students inside. Nobody even bothered to listen to him. His vein-twitched and was angry at everyone who was throwing the food he liked.

"Ah, so that's how it's gonna be like, huh! Well, take this!" He scooped up food from the floor, which was already thrown by someone, and threw it anywhere his arm led. He suddenly felt the urge to do it again so he did, ragingly. He got a bit carried away (Actually, more than a bit) which made people stare at him. Some got scared of him and gave him their scared look.

Hinata was really scared at what was happening, especially at Naruto, so she hid while Sakura was still concentrating and aiming for Sasuke. So far, neither one of them got hit except when Sakura had hit Sasuke from the start. They were both particularly at each other.

'Yes!' Sasuke finally hit Sakura at her face. Sakura's rage rose with fury once he had hit her. She wiped of the parts of food that was on her face. She was about to hit another to Sasuke until someone came inside the room and shouted, making everyone stop.

"What is happening here!" Everyone was terrified at the principal who came in. They all dropped the food in their hands and stared at Tsunade. Only Sakura and Sasuke were still holding food on their hands. Tsunade looked around the room, which a mess, and saw the two were holding food but looking at her. Even Naruto halted his scary actions.

"Who started this!...(Silence) Answer me!" Tsunade questioned them. Never have they seen her like that…scary, in their entire school life. All of them turned their heads towards the two, Sasuke and Sakura. They both realized that they were still holding food in their hands so they dropped it on the floor.

"Well, Ms. Haruno, Mr. Uchiha, thanks to your….activity here, you'll be spending the rest of the afternoon cleaning this place up." She looked at Sasuke and sighed.

"Mr. Uchiha, I understand that your family owns this school and I could get fired for this but you have to be held responsible for your actions. Understand?" Tsunade didn't really care if she got fired for what she was doing. She cared for the student. Sasuke nodded as if saying 'Okay'. It was already bell so everyone left except Sakura and Sasuke. Hinata promised Sakura that she would be back for her. She left with the others for the next class.

Now, Sasuke and Sakura were the only ones left.

"Grr! This is entirely your fault, Sasuke!" Sakura glared and got a mop to start cleaning. Sasuke stared at her then rolled his eyes and started cleaning.

"Well, you were the one who threw the food at me!"

"WHAT? You were the one who dumped those…ugh…frogs into my locker.!" Sakura started mopping the floor back and forth rapidly that she almost broke the mop.

"I know how we can settle this. First one to finish cleaning this place wins." Sasuke challenged her to settle their fight.

"Fine…GO!" They sped up in cleaning the cafeteria. According to the both of them, this was their way of getting back at each other, but the truth was that this was their way of bonding.
