"That boy is a freak. If he wasn't my best friend's brother I would never even talk to him. But if he hadn't taken me in." she shook her head, "Who knows what I would be like now. If I don't watch Sasuke, he will leave me to. Why do they always leave me?" Sakura let out a sigh. She turned around and headed for the room she shared with Sasuke Uchiha
When she arrived in the room all the stuff was put away and the two beds were pushed together. Sasuke was already in one and fast asleep. Sakura decided he had the right idea and went to sleep along side him.
"Students, get in your groups and go with your guide." the teacher yelled over the swarm of students. Sakura had woken up early and went ahead letting Sasuke sleep. So here she was waiting for him to show up.
"Yo, you must be Gaara Sabaku? I'm Sakura Haruno. Have you seen Sasuke? He's supposed to go with us."
"No you're the only one."
She grinned, "No I changed it."
"And I changed it back." he sent her own grin back at her. Her face fell.
"No shit? Damn, well I guess I need to do something about it, hu?." she was in total shock that someone though of changing it back, but then again if he managed to manipulate her schedule then he has to be smart, right? Sakura smiled evilly and told him to wait there and she would be back.
The teacher in charge was trying to get all the kids who needed to be together. "Miss Anko, can I talk to you for a second?"
"I'm sorry Sakura but I don't have the time right now, can this wait?"
Sakura shook her head as tears fell down her face. And she looked up at the teacher hopefully. Anko was one of the teachers from her school, she wasn't well liked really but she was one of the ones chosen to watch over the students in case they needed something. And she was one of Sakura's favorites.
"Ms. Anko it has to do with who I'm with. Sasuke's not in my group."
"Sakura you will just have to deal with that."
"But my guide kind of scares me and he keeps giving me this weird look. You know I don't like being around guys alone. I need Sasuke to be with me. You remember what happened the last time I was split away from Sasuke. All those hospitalized kids; do you want that to happen again?" Sakura cried out. Begging the teacher.
"Sakura calm down alright. Where is Sasuke anyway?"
"He's with Naruto and Kabuto."
"That's not good. Um ok you find Sasuke and go back to your group and I'll change the list and inform the teachers alright. How does that sound?" Anko smiled a bit.
"Arigato Anko. I owe you one."
"Just try not to do anything to bad to anyone. Alright, I don't want to have Itachi come and take you back. And try not to mess up the schedules anymore."
Sakura sweat dropped, "You knew about that?" Anko nodded, "oops." She looked around trying to find a way to get out of the unnerving silence then she spotted her black haired grouchy friend being annoyed by Naruto. "Well what do you know, there's Sasuke, I better be going. Bye Ms. Anko." She turned around and ran away from the working teacher.
"Sasuke. Sasuke. Hey Sasuke. God damn it pay attention to me." Sakura ran up to her friend and was huffing; He just looked at her like she was crazy.
"Sakura what are you doing?"
"I...changed...teacher…alone…hospitalized…back…smarted."
"What?" Sasuke just watched Sakura huff.
"I got the teachers to change you back into my group." Sakura looked annoyed. "He figured I would change it and he changed it back."
"You were out smarted?" He looked surprised.
"Yes I know. Can you believe it? Let's go, I sort of left him back there." She grinned evilly. "You know I should play a trick on him."
"Or not. Sakura you are not going to get us in trouble this early." Sasuke reprimanded.
"Fine I'll be good, but only for now. I'll play good girl card for now but it won't be that way for long." Sakura huffed.
Many students were already gone as Sakura headed back to Gaara well Sasuke followed a foot behind. When Gaara came into sight he was talking to a weird boy with spiky black hair and badly done makeup.
"Gaara?" Sakura walked up to him cautiously.
"Oh Sakura, this is my brother Kankuro. Kankuro this is Sakura Haruno."
"Um hello Kankuro. Nice to meet you?"
"Why do you make it sound like a question?" Kankuro asked grinning down at her.
Sakura smiled up at him. "Because I only just met you, all I know is that you're Gaara's brother and your name, how can I say it's nice to meet you when I really have yet to meet you? I'm sure you know me though." There was a hint of evil in her eyes as the smile flashed a smirk.
"Um sure. I got to go Gaara I'll talk to you later." Kankuro quickly left.
"What's wrong with him?" Sakura suddenly turned innocent.
"I think you scared him." Sasuke smirked from behind her. "I thought you said you were going to be good?"
"I was. He just can't handle all my goodness."
"Sasuke Uchiha I presume?"
"Yep Spiky is my best friend for ever and never." Sakura cheered and she grinned hanging over Sasuke's shoulder.
"I told you to stop calling me that."
"Right, that's my little Popsicle believe what I tell you."
"Would you shut up? At least I don't have ugly pink hair."
"My hair is black."
"Yeah because you dyed it."
"So what. It's not like you care. Besides I think it looks good on me."
"Yeah someone with pale pink hair can't stand the color pale pink. Funny really." Sasuke grinned at the disgusted look on her face.
"You have pink hair?" Gaara looked slightly surprised.
"Yes ok, I have pink hair. Happy now you know my deep secret. I have ugly pink hair that I dye because it horrifies me to look at it. Now that you know will you just back off and stop with the evil hair jokes, I am very sensitive about my ugly hair. So can we drop it?"
"Whatever. Let's just go." Gaara mumbled.
"Alright follow Panda-chan." Sakura cheered.
"Sakura don't call me that."
"Okay Panda-chan." Sakura just laughed. "I'm kidding, let's go."
