New people, new classes


The morning assembly was boring. While the principal went over rules, conduct, guidelines and how they were going to torture, opps I meant teach, their students this year. Naruto spent the whole time playing with sticks, while Sasuke just sat their lost in thought. Sakura spent most of her time gazing at her friend, wondering what he was thinking of. While inside a battle was raging.

"He's been working out" her inner Sakura pointed out

"Hmm I agree" Sakura replied

"He looks even hotter" inner Sakura added

"Yes he does and wait what" Sakura asked

"Come on admit it, you still like him" inner Sakura said

"Do not" Sakura replied, though this she knew was false. Last year Sakura had a huge crush on Sasuke, though whenever she tried to admit it he brushed it aside, Sasuke had a mountain of fan girls that she had to compete with. But Sasuke just didn't seem interested in romance. Not like his brother that could manage a dozen girlfriends at one time. Though Sakura constantly denied it to Naruto, who used to have a crush on her, Sakura knew she still liked Sasuke more than friends.

"You do so like him. Come on admit it. He used to just be cute but now his hot" Inner Sakura commented

"Yes he is" Sakura admitted

"See you agree" Inner Sakura roared

"But his just my friend"

"For now" Inner Sakura added, but Sakura chose to ignore this.

"Hey Sakura" A voice asked and she turned to face a grinning Naruto.

"What"

"Well it's just that" Naruto began his grin widening. Sakura sighed

"The dobe was going to tell you that we have to go to our home groups now" Sasuke answered her, his black eyes glaring into hers. Sakura thought her heart was going to melt but by now she had learned to control this whenever Sasuke looked at her. Instead she just smiled her thanks. Naruto went on ahead to see what home group they were all in.

'I hope were in the same home group" Sakura thought out loud

"Hn" Sasuke replied and Sakura smiled to herself. This was a common reply from her friend, and she was all too familiar with it.

"WERE ALL TOGETHER YESSSSS" Naruto yelled and Sakura laughed

"Well then we had better get a move on"

The three arrived at their homeroom to see a bunch of girls sitting together, waving furiously at Sasuke who just turned away and took a seat at the back. Naruto and Sakura followed him. Sakura spotted Ino and Tenten who were in deep conversation, while Shikamaru surprisingly just sat staring intently at Ino. Next to them was Neji, who was looking Tenten up and down. Hinita was next to him looking scared and overwhelmed. Sasuke was looking at his timetable.

"Looks like our home group is our English and Math's class" He observed and Sakura nodded.

"What classes have you two taken up this year" She asked

"Sport" Naruto replied

"Hn" Sasuke added, which Sakura knew meant me to

"Art"

"Oh I have that to" Sakura pointed out,

"Oh no I have all but one subject with him" Tenten suddenly shrieked, pointing at Neji. Sakura looked away as Naruto continued his list

"Music"

"Have that to" Sakura said

"Hn" Came Sasuke's reply

"Oh so were all together in that together" Sakura announced cheerfully

"Food" Naruto continued

"Typical" Muttered Sasuke

"Shut up Teme" Naruto yelled

"Dobe" Sasuke said calmly

"Is that it" Sakura asked, trying to distract Naruto

"Huh, oh yeah and drama"

"You're doing drama" Sakura cried and Naruto nearly fell off his chair

"Oh, Teme is to"

"You're doing drama" Sakura demanded at Sasuke who nodded. Naruto looked at Sakura's class list.

"So are you" he said and Sakura smiled.

"Won't this be fun?"

The teacher finally arrived and began another long lecture. By the time he finished it was recess, and announcing that classes well resume next period he dismissed the class. Sakura dragged Sasuke and Naruto to a corner in the yard in which she sat down.

"What have you guys got next" she asked

"Sport" Naruto replied grinning

"Hn"

"He has sport to" Naruto told her and she nodded. "What about you"

"Dance" She said and Naruto laughed.

"What's so funny" Sakura demanded

"No…not…nothing" Naruto replied, still rolling around and laughing loudly. Sakura turned to see Sasuke smirking.

"Boys" She muttered to herself.

In Sport with the boys

After they had gotten changed, the boys lined up. Naruto was jumping up and down, while Sasuke looked at him suspiciously.

"What the hell are you doing dobe" he asked

"Warming up" Naruto replied

"Hey" Shikamaru interrupted as he joined them.

"Hn" came Sasuke's greeting and Shikamaru yawned

"What's he doing" Shikamaru asked Sasuke who smirked. By this time Neji had wandered over to them and was staring at Naruto to.

"He is trying to fly" Sasuke told them and Naruto stopped jumping to look at his friend

"Huh"

"Troublesome" Shikamaru added

"Ok teams of four now" The teacher ordered "Now grab a ball and warm up by simply throwing and catching. Simply means no broken equipment. I don't care about bones, just don't wreck my gym" The four boys looked at each other

"So" Naruto said "um what do you say"

"Hn"

"Whatever"

"Troublesome"

"I take that as a yes" Naruto declared and the three nodded as Naruto resumed his jumping up and down.

"Who is that guy" Neji whispered

"Some troublesome kid no doubt" Shikamaru added

"Hey aren't you that Uchiha kid" Neji asked Sasuke who nodded

"Wow, your Itachi's little brother right" Neji pointed out and Naruto stopped jumping to notice his fists clench up

"The one who has the famous family background" Neji continued

"That's him" Naruto explained proud to have such a popular kid as his friend

"The ones who parents died in a car crash right" Shikamaru added and Naruto let his grin fall, he knew how much Sasuke hated having his parents, well his family in general mentioned. Sasuke gritted his teeth and replied "We should start the exercise"

In Dance with the girls

"In pairs now" The teacher ordered and Sakura looked around to see Hinita standing by herself.

"Want to be my partner" She asked and Hinita shyly smiled

"Ok" The two got to work, and soon were both bored.

"So Hinita" Sakura began trying to start a conversation going "Is their anyone you like, as in more than friends"

"Um kind of" Hinita whispered and Sakura's eyes widened.

"Oh who"

"I can't say"

"Why not, do I know them" Sakura demanded and Hinita slowly nodded

"Oh please tell me, I promise ill keep it a secret." Sakura pleaded. Hinita did want to tell her. One because she wanted more friends and two because Sakura could help her get his attention.

"Promise you wont laugh" Hinita asked and Sakura nodded

"Of course not"

"It's Naruto" She admitted and Sakura smiled

"Aww that's cute."

"People laugh" Hinita told her and Sakura nodded

"Yes because they think his an idiot"

"Is he" Hinita enquired

"Yes" Sakura replied "But his also very nice and charming" Hinita smiled then asked

"You don't like him, do you"

"No. He use to like me but I like" Sakura stopped there and saw Hinita giggled

"Who" Sakura shook her head and Hinita frowned

"Oh come on I told you"

"Fine" Sakura muttered.

"Is it Sasuke"

"How did you know" Sakura demanded and Hinita laughed

"Just a guess, so does he know" Sakura hung her head

"He doesn't like me that way"

"I wouldn't be so sure of that if I were you" Hinita told her and then the two began talking about life, family and so on. Sakura left dance with a big grin and went in search of her friends.
