Kei smiled slightly and told everyone to sit around in a circle. Everybody gave her an inquisitive look but they complied and formed a ring. She announced, "Alright everybody, since this day at school has been pretty boring, lets have some fun and play Spin the Bottle!"
All the boys were thinking, "Hell NO!" but Sakura and Hinata just thought of the prospect of being kissed or kissing someone and they blushed. Kei noticed all these mixed feelings and said, "If you guys don't play, I guess you don't want me to be your friend…"
She pretended to cry a little and everyone immediately felt bad and quickly said, "I'll play!"
"Suckers…They don't know that I was the Drama Club leader back at my old school. They fall for anything…" Kei thought mischievously.
Kei grabbed an empty glass coke bottle from her lunch tray and put in the center. Rubbing her hands, she said, "Alright, since Sakura allowed us to sit with her, she gets to go first!"
Sakura gulped and shakily reached toward the bottle to twirl it. Secretly, Kei had rigged the bottle with a little secret contraption and she was determined to let it fall on whoever the person liked. The bottle spun quickly and landed on obviously Sasuke. Sakura made a strange strangled noise and blushed like a fiery tomato. Sasuke just grunted and thought, "Man…At least she's not a crazy fan girl."
Kei could feel the tension and though no one knew but her, Sasuke's heart beat little faster. That confirmed her suspicions of his feelings toward Sakura and she knew they were meant to be. Sakura was taking a VERY long time reaching over to kiss Sasuke so Kei booted Sakura a little to give her an encouraging push and Sakura landed smack on top of Sasuke with their lips locked together.
Sasuke's and Sakura's eyes widened instantaneously and they lied in that position for what seemed like eternity. Finally Sakura recovered and had the strength to get up and scramble back to her seat. She had a dazed expression on her face and she was even redder than before. Sasuke looked a little flushed but then tried to hide it by reverting his facial expression to its normal stoic state. He grunted a little and straightened out his polo. Kei could tell they had both enjoyed it but didn't show it.
"Oh my goodness………I just kissed Sasuke! I can't believe I just kissed him! I wonder if he liked it…No…he doesn't even acknowledge me, how could he like me?" Sakura wondered.
"HAH! You finally kissed the hot ass Uchiha! Man that was awesome; you should have started to make out with him! And of course he likes you, who could resist such a kiss?" Inner Sakura raged.
"Gah! Shut up! Why do I have to have such a horny other-personality? I just hope he doesn't hate me now for kissing him like that, even if it was Spin the Bottle!"
Little did Sakura know Sasuke was thinking along the same thoughts.
"Damn! She tasted so good, just like sweet cherries…I wish that could have lasted longer! Now she probably thinks I'm some kind of pervert lying there kissing her back like that even though she was supposed to kiss me. Why do I care so much anyways? She's just some girl…or am I falling for a girl, just like Hyuuga?"
Satisfied, Kei giggled, breaking their train of thoughts. She looked at her watch and said, "Well that was interesting. Anyways, I think its time to go inside and go to our next classes."
---------------------------------------------------------------
Since it was P.E. next, the gang separated and went to their respective locker rooms.
With the boys……
"SASUKE-teme! That was some action! Did you enjoy your kiss with Sakura-chan?"
Naruto knew Sakura from his English class because she helped him with his work all the time.
"Hn. Shut up dobe, it's just a kiss. Get over it. And besides, what if I did like it? It's not like Sakura liked it…."
Finally confessing, Sasuke left the locker room early to shoot some hoops.
Naruto sat there for a moment and took in Sasuke's words. Then a light turned on in his head and he realized that Sasuke had a crush on Sakura! Excited, he ran to Neji and practically screamed into his ear.
"Sasuke-teme likes Sakura!" Realizing he was screaming, he changed his voice level and whispered, "Both you and Sasuke have crushes now, hehe!"
Neji blushed once more at the sound of "crush" but the he countered back, "Shut up you fool. I'm pretty sure you like someone too."
With that, Neji also left to go look for Sasuke and play a game of one-on-one. Again, Naruto sat there and pondered about who he liked. Thinking too hard, he shook his head and dashed out to go find his friends.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
With the girls……
Sakura walked dazed and nearly ran into a locker. Kei chirped, "Hey Sakura, I know you like Sasuke…and I'm pretty sure Sasuke likes you, so that's just a little favor."
Kei winked and walked off to the other side of the locker room to change into her uniform, leaving Sakura to ponder more about what she had just said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the gym……
Kei briskly jogged around the gym for some warm-up. She was glad she didn't have Gai-sensei as a coach because he continuously spouted some crap about YOUTH and more youth she thought he was sort of creepy because of his smile and eyebrows. Her coach was Asuma-sensei and he was pretty laidback so most of the girls just huddled around in groups and gossiped. She was the only girl that actually exercised and played sports seriously. Back in her old school, she had an extensive record of playing sports. She played lacrosse, field hockey, football, tennis, volleyball, swimming, and mostly basketball. She loved basketball and enjoyed seeing the look on boy's faces when she owned at their own game. She was even allowed to play on the basketball team which was usually strictly boys. After about 10 laps, she spotted Neji and Sasuke playing and decided to talk to them.
When they saw Kei coming over, they stopped playing for a moment and greeted her. Neji was drooling inside because of her outfit. It wasn't slutty, it's just that Kei could pull it off VERY well. Instead of wearing the regular short red shorts, she wore black basketball shorts that went below her knees and wore the red shorts under. Her pants were pulled slightly down so you could see the shorts underneath and she also wore a black undershirt that was loose. Her shoes were black and red Nike high-tops and her hair was still in the messy bun. Overall, she looked like a sexy ghetto girl. She smiled and said, "Hey want to play some ball?"
Hyuuga snorted and said, "Girls can't play basketball, they should just stick to cheerleading."
Instead of getting the response he expected, Kei sauntered up to his face until their noses were almost touching and she said in a cocky voice, "Bring it on."
Sasuke sat on the sidelines and he watched Neji and Kei play. He admitted that Kei had skill. She was pretty much equal to the Hyuuga and himself. He watched her jump up and toss the ball over Hyuuga's head, making a 3-pointer. Hyuuga was shaking his head in frustration but he could also see that he was having a good time. The game progressed on until many students were crowding around the two, cheering them on. All the girls except Hinata and Sakura cheered for Neji and all the boys cheered for Kei. Finally, Asuma blew the whistle and everyone scrambled off to change clothing. Kei and Neji sat down panting hard because of their extreme game of basketball. Kei looked over to Neji and smirked saying, "Now what did you say about girls not being able to play basketball?"
"Aa. I admit, you are skilled since we ended up with a tie. You're better than half the boys in this school. ."
Kei stood up, winked and sped off to the locker room to shower and change. She left Neji sitting there thinking about her play.
"Man, she's good at basketball…I think I seriously have a crush on her now…"
Neji stood up and slowly walked across the empty gym.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5th Period…
During 5th period Kei, Neji, Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata, and Naruto had to pick clubs. Since Kei wanted to be with her new friends, she asked all of them if they would go join the Healthy Life Club. Her friends sweat dropped because she wanted to join such a ridiculous club but they complied. Kei was adamant in keeping her body in tip top condition even thought she was naturally in good shape.
"I know you guys don't really want to join such a stupid club but think about it! We get to go on field trips to fancy resorts to relax and we get to have a free membership to Bally's Fitness!" Kei said.
After that comment, the Hinata and Sakura didn't really mind joining the club but Naruto complained. "Aw, Kei-chan, you know guys don't want to go to spas! This sucks!"
Neji and Sasuke just hned, knowing it was too late to take back their forms anyways.
Kei glared at Naruto for a split second and he immediately shut up, laughing nervously. For some reason, Kei was in a ridiculously good mood. She smiled and said, "Well our first field trip is going to be in 2 days and were going to the exclusive Club Monica Resort off the coast of the Mediterranean Sea so be prepared!"
Naruto groaned and 5th period ended with everyone splitting up to their classes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kei parked her car in the parking space in front of her house. She pushed in the key to her front door and she dropped her backpack by the kitchen counter and started to down a cold cup of water. It had been a long first day of school but she had still made it through.
"Maybe I can really start over here…I know I've made a good choice in friends because I have seen their hearts…they are real friends I can trust."
With that done, Kei left the kitchen with a smile and proceeded to meditate outside in the garden.
