Sakura shot up from her lying position on the desk as the sound of the bell rang through her ears. Shivering, she shook her head, trying to get rid of the echoing sounds of the bell running through her head and grabbed her books. Looking at the homework board, she sighed in relief as she found that they had nothing to work on. Kurenai basically just talked and could care less about homework.
Walking out of the classroom, Sakura hugged her books to her chest as she looked around, trying to find her next class. I have…Language, She thought, checking her schedule.
Looking around some more, she found the room number and walked quickly over to the door. Sliding the door open, she stepped in and went to find a seat to sit. Sakura smiled as she saw Gaara sitting by the window, just staring into nothingness.
"Gaara-kun!"
Gaara snapped his head in the direction of the voice as he wondered who it would be. Usually, no one dared to talk to him. Still puzzled about who it could be, He finally rested his gaze on the pink haired female. Oh. Her.
Gaara narrowed his eyes at Sakura and merely looked away again, totally ignoring her presence as she walked towards him. Sakura frowned as she saw this and pouted. Putting her books down on the empty desk beside him, she sat down in the seat and fixed her gaze on the red head.
Gaara twitched as he felt the emerald eyes pierce into him, not even moving. Turning around slowly, His eye twitched again as he asked, clearly irritated, "What are you doing?"
Sakura snapped out of her trance and mumbled, "Wha?" She hadn't even noticed that she had been staring for a bit too long.
"What were you looking at?"
Sakura blushed and looked away. He had seen me staring… Ahhh, What am I gonna say?
Closing her eyes, She turned back to him and opened them. "I…A-ano…I…"
She kept on stuttering and tapping her fingers together, much like Hinata and was in a complete loss of words.
After a few more attempts at finding an explanation, She looked up to see Gaara, Doodling in his book. Had he not even been paying attention? Sakura felt a vein pop on her head and growled.
Gaara didn't seem to notice though.
"Gaara?"
No answer.
He was once again, Ignoring her completely.
"Gaara!"
Gaara scratched his ear as he pulled out a book to read.
"Gaara…"
Sakura poked him in the side and yelled, "GAARA!" into his ear.
Shocked, He tipped over in his chair and fell to the ground. Everyone in the classroom turned their attention to them and Sakura thanked god that the teacher hadn't arrived yet.
Blushing, She looked down to see if he was okay. Well, If you call okay being splattered all over the ground, embarrassing yourself, and totally ruining your reputation by being screamed at by some new girl at school, then he was OKAY.
"Nice one."
Sakura turned around to see who had spoken. A brown haired, white eyed pretty boy, who looked a lot like Hinata, was standing behind her, gazing at Gaara who was scowling and getting up before dusting himself off.
"Sakura…" He growled, in a low voice.
"You better run," The brown haired boy stated, stuffing his hands into his pockets and looking over at a stunned Sakura.
"G-gomen!" She squealed, Holding her hands up infront of her chest and clasping them together, frightened.
Gaara was now advancing towards her, a dark aura around him. Sakura was frozen in her spot as the whole class stared in silence.
"Yo, Gaara. Just leave her alone."
Another voice intruded as Gaara turned his head towards it. A black spiky haired boy walked towards them, standing out from the crowd who were all still as silent as the dead. "She's new. Just go easy on her," The boy continued, Looking over at the paralyzed Sakura.
"Yeah, Gaara. She's as frightened as a mouse. Let her go," The other brown haired boy cut in.
Gaara grunted and looked away, Obviously obeying his friends' suggestions.
After a few seconds passed, Sakura sighed in relief and looked up nervously at Gaara who still looked a little pissed off. Well, Let's just say that he needed major anger management. "Gomen…" She murmured, Looking at the ground again.
The brown haired boy walked over to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Ah, It's okay. Gaara's always like that. The name's Neji by the way." He flashed her a smile and that was when she noticed that all three of them were probably the best looking boys in the whole school. She blushed at the thought and focused her gaze on the ground some more. Black and white tiles…Hm…Oh, Is that a scratch? And… Ew. Gum. Then a voice intruded her from her thoughts.
"I'm Sasuke", The black haired boy said, nodding towards her.
"I-I'm Sakura," She said shyly, Not used to speaking to three very good looking boys at once.
Gaara stayed silent as he watched the three. He sat back down on his chair and straightened the desk before looking out the window again.
Sakura glanced nervously over at Gaara again, Hesitantly sitting back down in her seat. Neji noticed this and said, "Don't worry about it. Gaara will get over it. If you're going to be scared of him like that, There's no point of even trying to be his friend anyways."
Sakura gave Neji a nervous smile before nodding. Sasuke sighed and said, "Well, I guess I'll see you around." He walked away to the other side of the room and sat down while Neji did the same.
Still shivering slightly, Sakura stared down at the wooden desk, Not daring to look at Gaara again. She didn't want to ever get him angry. It was quite scary even if he didn't do anything to her yet.
I just hope I can get through this school year…
