Summary:
A very quiet and secretive guy.
A very loud and outgoing girl.
He wanted to be left alone.
She didn't want to be alone.
He was a bully.
She stood strong.
Little did they know, the war they've been holding on to
Is a Blessing in Disguise.
Haruno Sakura was sent to yet another school. It's the same old routine again. You meet friends; get to know them, then before school ends you leave them. That's how Sakura's life was. She couldn't help it that her father is a diplomat. But one school made all the difference. That one school made her life change.
Uchiha Sasuke was the oh so famous one in Itoshima High. He was the Prince. He had a fan club of his own. But he was surprised that one girl didn't think he was all that great. She even started a war. Well, that part was mutual. But he didn't know that this girl would change his whole out look on life. Well...not really but she did change him somehow...
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto...Too bad…haha. Oh yeah and this is an A/U.
Chapter One: Perverted School?
Haruno Sakura walked to her dorm room. It was quite confusing because Itoshima High was a rather grand school. The school had an auditorium, cafeteria inside AND outside, swimming pool, tennis court, basketball court, volleyball court, thousands of dorm rooms and hundreds of classrooms. From all the previous schools Sakura has been to, this place beat them all.
" Dorm 143," Sakura said looking up from her registration form and skimming the hall. " 139...140...142...143," she said finally finding her dorm.
She knocked a couple times to check if her roommate had already arrived. She heard a few rummages in the room followed by someone's voice.
" Coming! Hang on," the voice said.
The door opened and it revealed a pretty blonde girl with side bangs that leaned to the right and bright cheery blue eyes. She had on a wide smile and looked at Sakura.
" Hi!" she greeted Sakura.
" Hi, dorm 143 right?" Sakura asked.
" Yup! You must be my new roommate," she said happily. " I'm Yamanaka Ino," she said holding her hand out.
Sakura happily accepted her hand and shook it.
" Haruno Sakura," she introduced herself.
" I suppose these things belong to you?" Ino asked pointing back at the boxes and suitcases in the other half of the room.
" Yeah," Sakura said surprised her belongings arrived before her.
" Well, c'mon and unpack your things. In an hour there's going to be an assembly in the auditorium," Ino informed her.
" Oh, thanks for telling me," Sakura said gratefully.
" No problem," Ino smiled back.
Sakura began to unpack her things on her side of the room. Ino had taken the bed closer to the door; so, she had to take the one closer to the window.
Sakura didn't like the thought of that because when she was younger, her dad used to tease her saying if she didn't sleep by the time she was sent to bed, a were wolf would come through her window and kidnap her and then eat her.
At first, little Sakura didn't believe her dad. So, one time she was sent to bed and a few minutes later, her dad caught her playing with her dolls. So, what her dad did was get one of his brothers to dress up as the wolf and scare her. You can say her dad was a little bit...insane.
Sakura's Flashback
" Sakura, time for bed," Sakura's dad told her.
" Aww, but I'm not done watching yet daddy," Sakura whined.
" Sakura, if you don't go to bed. A wolf will come in your window and kidnap you," her dad tried to scare her.
" That won't happen. My room is upstairs," Sakura said not believing her dad's little white lie.
" The wolf would find a way to get in," he said, continuing to lie.
" Wolves don't live in the city," Sakura said noticing they weren't near a forest.
" Uhh... There are werewolves here in New York. Did you know?" he said giving ANOTHER lie.
" Then how come we never see it in the news?" she asked.
" Well...because I saw one. With my own two eyes!" he said pointing at his eyes..
" Where?" Sakura asked.
" Near the dump," her dad said answering flatly.
" What was he doing in the dump?" she asked curiously.
" Looking for...food," he said, as he couldn't think of a good reason.
" If a werewolf is going to go through my window, kidnap me, then eat me, won't he just go to some other kids window when they're not asleep and kidnap them and eat them? Why would he go to the dump to do that?" she asked making a good point, even her dad couldn't answer.
" Well...uhh…Just go to sleep, Sakura," her dad said upset that her little six year old daughter beat him.
Sakura reluctantly stood up and lagged herself up the stairs. She dragged her little white bunny up the stairs and mumbled to herself.
" Remember! Sleep right away or else the werewolf's going to get you," her dad yelled from the bottom.
An hour passed and Sakura's dad went upstairs and checked up on Sakura. Her door was left ajar and he poked his head. He saw her playing with her stuff animals.
" Would you like some apple pie Mr. Green Frog?" Sakura asked her stuffed frog while handing him a fake apple pie.
" No, thank you 'ribbit'. Apple pie's make me get diarrhea 'ribbit'," Sakura said trying to voice the frog.
" Okay! More for me then!" she said as she pretended to eat the pie hungrily.
Sakura's dad just shook his head and said in his mind,
" I'm sorry to do this to you Sakura. But...you leave me no choice. Muahahaha!" he said cackling in his mind while doing the evil hand thing.
Sakura was having fun when she heard something on her window. She quickly turned and saw nothing but a tree branch. She shrugged it off and just continued playing.
Tap tap tap
She heard it again. This time when she turned to look at her window, she saw a werewolf! ( raiiyaan: oh no...I wonder who it is...)
Sakura's eyes widened when the wolf opened her window and jumped in. The wolf just stood there with its claws on either side of its face and crouched down.
" Do something, Sam!" she heard someone whisper.
" Oh, right," the ' werewolf' said. " Uh...boogala boogala boogala!" the 'werewolf' said.
" Ahhh!" screamed Sakura.
She took one of her mini tennis rackets and started hitting the 'werewolf'.
" Ouch! Ouch! Sajo! Your daughter is hurting me!" the 'werewolf' said.
But Sakura ignored it and just kept hitting the 'werewolf'.
End of flash back
Sakura shivered at the thought of remembering that incident.
" Sakura," Ino said breaking through her thoughts. " You're new here right?" Ino asked while sitting on her bed.
" Uh...Yeah. M-my dad and I just came from Osaka," she said.
" Oh, that's where you were born?" Ino asked, trying to get to know her new roommate more.
Sakura shook her head.
" I was born in Yokohama. My dad's a diplomat," Sakura said.
" Ohh. Have you lived outside Japan?" Ino asked curiously.
Sakura nodded.
" Oh cool! Where have you lived?" she asked so interested in her life.
" Well, I've lived in New York, Germany, Hong Kong, London, and that's all. Now, I'm back here in Japan," she said.
" Wow, It must be pretty cool living in different places," Ino praised her.
All Sakura did was smile. She actually didn't like living in all the different places. First, she has to learn how to speak the language. Second, she hated leaving friends behind. Third, she wanted to stay in Japan to look for a certain someone. And, with her dad moving from place to place, she couldn't complete that last mission.
" So, is your dad back in Japan too?" Ino asked.
" No, right now he's living in Taiwan," Sakura said going back to unpacking.
" Oh... then why aren't you with him?" Ino asked.
" I was home sick. For quite a long time. I don't really know a lot of people back here in Japan. Only a few close relatives. So that's why I'm here in Itoshima," Sakura said.
" Oh... I see. That's kind of cool. Being able to go to places. Seeing new things," Ino said admiring her.
" I guess..." Sakura said a bit sad.
For a while, they sat in silence. Well, Ino did the sitting. Sakura just unpacked. She could see that Ino wasn't much of a patient girl and kept fidgeting, swaying her feet, clucking her tongue and what not.
" Hey, how about I help you unpack after the assembly. I want you to meet some people," Ino said excitedly.
" Um, sure," Sakura said happily.
She followed the blond girl out their dorm and out to the hall. Ino knocked on the room 146 and a brown haired girl with two buns on either side of her head appeared in front of them.
" Hey Ino, what's up?" she said with a smile.
" Tenten, this is Haruno Sakura, my new roommate," Ino introduced.
" Hi Sakura," Tenten greeted with a warm smile.
" Tenten, i-is that I-ino?" a soft voice said behind Tenten.
Sakura then saw a girl with white eyes and straight indigo hair that went up to her shoulders. She seemed the sweet innocent type.
" Hinata," Ino said poking her head from in front of Tenten. " I want you to meet my new roommate," she said.
Hinata shyly moved closer to the door and saw Sakura.
" Hyuuga Hinata, meet Haruno Sakura," Ino said introducing her to yet another friend.
" N-nice to meet you, Sakura," Hinata greeted shyly.
" Nice to meet you too," Sakura said smiling.
" Hey, don't you think we should get going? It's already 5:55. The assembly starts in five minutes." Tenten suggested.
" Yeah, good idea," Ino said. " I'll introduce you to the guys later," she said.
" Guys?" Sakura said with her face like this o.O
In the auditorium, they were seated near the back because it was so crowded when they got there. Itoshima had about one to two thousand students in minimum. Sakura had never seen so many students in the same room all at once.
" Hey Sakura, has Ino told you about what happened to her roommate the other year?" Tenten asked while sitting beside her.
" No. She hasn't mentioned anything about a roommate to me," Sakura said confused.
" Tenten, I-I don't think Ino would like you telling her about her business," Hinata said.
" I don't think Ino would mind," Tenten said reassuringly.
Just then, Sakura felt someone beside her ( she's in the end near the aisle). She looked at who it was and it was Ino. She didn't have that happy smiling face she had on earlier. In fact, she looked like she was going to kill Tenten if she said anything more.
" Hey, Ino, you don't mind if I tell Sakura about Miya- - -"
" Say one more word and I'll rip your mouth open," Ino said in a slow menacing tone.
Tenten said nothing more and her eyes were as wide as a monkeys ( raiiyaan: like this? 00). Sakura was confused at Ino's sudden change of mood. It was like one moment she was so nice and happy, then say one thing she doesn't like and she could be the next person on the most wanted list.
Ino sat beside Hinata who was beside Tenten. There was a bunch of chatter going around the huge room.
" Tenten," Sakura called out to her.
But Tenten didn't hear.
"Tenten!" she called out again.
Tenten looked over at Sakura and was about to say something when everyone suddenly became quiet.
" Ahem," a voice was heard from the microphone. " Welcome back from students of Itoshima and welcome to the new comers. I am Hatake Kakashi sensei," the guy on the stage with half his face covered aside from his right eye announced.
" Why is his face covered?" Sakura asked leaning towards Tenten.
" That is the mystery of our Kakashi sensei," Tenten said not knowing why he had his face covered.
" I have only one more thing to say," he said after all the other stuff he said. " Whoever pulled a prank on me on the first day back at school...You better tell mw who you are before you get detention for the whole year," he said.
He was going to walk away but then suddenly turned around and said,
" Whoever you are, don't forget to bring back my Itcha Itcha Paradise book back please," he said.
" Itcha Itcha Paradise?" Sakura said turning around to Tenten.
" Our Kakashi sensei...he's a bit of a ...pervert," Tenten said embarrassed.
Sakura sweat dropped anime style.
" Grreeeeeat...my teachers a perv,"
" Welcome back kids," another voice was heard. " I am Principal Jiraiya," he said. " I would..."
" Sakura... Just to let you know..." Tenten said. " Principal Jiraiya's a bit of a perv himself,"
Sakura once again sweat dropped.
" Are all my sensei's perverted!" Inner Sakura thought.
The assembly went on for an hour or so until they were all dismissed to go back to their dorm.
Sakura got sort of separated from Ino, Tenten and Hinata from all the kids. So, she just decided to go back on her own. On her way there, she saw someone being bullied.
" Thick-brow you idiot!"
" Lee, you stupid idiot!"
" I'm going to shave all your eyebrows off so you have no more!"
Sakura peaked from the side of the corner and saw three guys pushing one guy to the wall.
" C'mon you guys, it was just a joke!" The one with the thick eyebrows said.
" We need to do things like that to enjoy our wonderful youth! We won't be this young forever!"
" How are we going to explain to Kakashi that it wasn't me!" the one with the blackish blue hair said.
" You are so troublesome, Lee," the one with the brown hair said while crossing his arms.
" Finding that perverted book in my drawer gave me a nose bleed!" the one with blonde hair said.
" But weren't you curious about what else was inside the book? We have to discover the curiosity of our minds with youthful stuff!" thick eyebrow said.
There was a long awkward silence between the four.
" Ahem," the one with his arms folded said.
" SO YOU GUYS DO WANT TO EXPAND YOUR MINDS! SEE!" the guy pointed his finger.
" Are all the people in this school perverted!" Inner Sakura thought.
" Shut up thick brows!" the yellow haired boy screamed.
The one with the blackish blue hair held up his fist ready to hit the helpless thick eye browed guy. Sakura's eyes widened and she ran to save him.
Sakura's eyes were shut tightly as she felt the guy's fist in her palm. She opened her right eye and saw two shocked faces. (Sasuke's face was just normal).
" Whoa...she blocked his punch," the yellow haired kid said amazed.
" Troublesome," the other one said.
" Who are you?" Sasuke asked Sakura.
Sakura opened her other eye and just stared at him. Still holding her palm to protect the guy behind her and Sasuke's fist in the same position. Sasuke grew impatient and asked again.
" Who are you?"
Sakura on the other hand was fishing in her head of what to say to the jerk.
" Do I tell him who I am? No... Do I say a smart-ass comeback? No... I don't even know any good comebacks. I wonder if that was a rhetorical question...But then again a rhetorical question is not intended to an answer. And that question 'who are you' certainly has many answers to it. But I ---"
" WHO ARE YOU?" Sasuke yelled loudly breaking through her thoughts.
" W-why do I have to tell you who I am?" Sakura said.
Sasuke slowly backed her up to the wall after yelling at Lee to move. They were still holding onto each other's hand and Sakura could feel his breath on her skin.
" What...did you say?" Sasuke said in a deadly tone.
Sakura brought all her courage together and stared back at him as he did to her.
" I said...why do I have to tell you who I am?"
Sasuke found this girl courageous, but stupid.
He was about to say something else to her when they heard someone yell out his name.
" SASUKE!"
Both Sakura and Sasuke's head flew towards the person who yelled.
