(AN: This is present time, keep it in mind)

Sakura wasn't a popular girl in school but she could name two off the bat….Ino and Temari they both went out with the two most popular boys in school that everyone loved except Sakura and probably a few other no bodies, Ino went out with Sauske and Itachi with Temari, her and Ino hung out and of course Sauske and Itachi, they lived together so they hung out a lot. Temari and Ino sang badly but the two Uchiha's let them in their band as singers because they were their girlfriends, everyone still loved them, they were popular who wouldn't?

Sakura knew a few people, she knew Shikamaru her best friend and she knew Hinata a shy girl that wouldn't talk around anyone but Shikamaru and her…Go figure…She even studdered around her cousin Neji, another popular boy, Sakura didn't completely hate him she just despised him…What was the difference?

So here sat Sakura in Kurenai's class of math, how boring could school get…pretty boring, besides the fact that Hinata was sitting to the right of her and Shikamaru to the right of Hinata, Shikamaru always scooted his desk to hers, 'to help on problems' he would always say, but he knew that wasn't the case, Hinata even noticed.

Here it was Saturday, Talk about how school stinks when you only get one day of a weekend, Sakura was ready to go home and do her homework, Sakura was in 8th grade along with The popular girl and boy Ino and Sauske, she could hear Ino giggling she sat a few seats behind her. And Temari was in 9th grade, Itachi was in 12th. Thank god!

"How troublesome" Shikamaru mumbled Hinata and Sakura looked at him. Then turned to see Kurenai, instructing in the front of class.

The bell rang and Sakura along with Hinata and Shikamaru packed up, turning in their work to the teacher and then exited the room and then they went to their lockers, all next to each other….That's how they became friends, they all hit their head on Sakura's locker and started laughing…now Sakura put her stuff in her locker and turned to see Shikamaru closing his locker to the right on hers and then Hinata to the left of hers.

"So meet up at my house at 7 okay?" Sakura asked to reassure them "Mom won't be home until 5pm tomorrow and dad's on a business trip so were free from parents"

"Yep" Hinata said

"Sure" Shikamaru sighed inwardly

"Alright, behave yourself" Sakura said laughing a little "Bye" She was running off she waved and hurried to the bus, she got on, it was only 3 pm and she had to wait for another 15 miniutes to reach home. She sat in her two person seat, and guess what? Itachi and Sauske sat right in front of her! 'How gruesome' Sakura thought to herself. She thanked god that no one sat next to her.

The First stop was the Uchiha's house, when they got off everyone started shouting "Byeeeeee!" Sakura just sat in her seat sighing, next stop was hers, she got dropped off no one said anything….but of course.

Sakura entered her house going to her bedroom, threw her backpack down and layed on her bed, sighing she turned her music on, it was 30 seconds to mars Attack, she sat on her bed and pulled out her homework, she sat on her bed and completed her math homework, talk about hauling Kurenai gave them more homework because she caught Sauske and Ino laughing and giggling making her homework a total of math homework.

She finished her math homework by 5 pm, not having her mom there to help her was hell, she was having difficulties with this, but by the time she finished it she thought of herself as a wiz in it.

Sakura did her science homework ending by 5:30 'only another hour and a half until they arrive' Sakura thought, she had to get on the computer to research something involving science, she finished researching and headed for the kitchen, she was going to make dinner for Hinata and Shikamaru.

She started cooking the left over curry her mom and her ate last night, she got everything ready and waited for Hinata and Shikamaru, knowing Hinata's mother she would be early.

Sakura heard a knock on the door she opened it and saw Hinata, Sakura smiled and grabbed Hinata's hand Hinata put her sleepover backpack in Sakura's room, then she heard another knock at the door this time Shikamaru he just followed her to her room, Hinata was sitting on the bed Shikamaru put his stuff down and he sat next to Hinata Sakura brang the curry in and they ate.

"So are you actually gonna do it?" Hinata asked and Sakura nodded, she was going to sing at the school talent show on Monday.

Finally it reached midnight, they were talking and laughing telling jokes and making fun of the popular kids, they eventually fell asleep, Shikamaru on the floor and Hinata and Sakura on the bed.

The next morning they both had to leave early, just when they woke up Hinata's mom was at the door, Hinata rushed out and soon enough Shikamaru's dad picked him up.

Sakura practiced singing for a couple hours, her mom came home and they made dinner and sat down at the dining room table her mom started a conversation "So how'd the sleepover go?" her mom asked smiling.

"Good we laughed and talked" Sakura said ready to get up and put her bowl in the sink and go take a shower and drift off to sleep in her peaceful room.

Which is what she did, she put her bowl in the sink and went to her room, grabbed a nightgown and went to the bathroom showered and slipped into her shorts and shirt and prepared her outfit for tomorrow, everyone would be wearing their really cool outfits, but Sakura just polished her guitar and wore what she normally would, jeans and a punkish shirt, it had a white scull on it, she slipped in her bed and slept peacefully thinking everyone else was nervous wreck calmed her.

The next morning, she grabbed some toast and changed into her clothes brushed her teeth and grabbed her guitar and putting it into her case and hung it on her back, and carried her backpack, her mom had already been out of the house and left a note saying:

Good luck, love mom

Sakura left going to the bus stop which picked her up, everyone on the bus looked at her weird, they gave her that 'your gonna be in the talent show?' look, she hated it, but once she got to her seat she felt better, then there came the two Uchiha's everyone wanted them to sit next to them, everyone said "Hi hihihihihi" which really annoyed Sakura, once they got to school Sakura felt secure she walked to her locker grabbing her Science homework, and she Hauled it to class.

Sakura entered seeing Hinata and Shikamaru she went and sat next to them, they Said their good lucks and she handed the Science teacher Anko her homework, in a half hour the talent show would be held.
