A/N: There will definitely be OOC in this chapter. If there wouldn't be any OOC then the fanfic wouldn't work. Enjoy!

Chapter 5

She walked in the school gates, wondering what would happen next when she has friends. She stopped and thought about what would happen.

'What if…'

Sakura imagined in her mind, the gang looking posh and talking like it.

'No. But what if…'

She imagined them in 'gangster' look and them doing stupid raps.

'Never. What if…'

She imagined them all with smiley faces and talking joyfully all the time.

'Too creepy…'

She snapped out of her reverie once more and found Naruto, Hinata, Neji and Ino at the other side of the street.

"Ohayo Sakura-chan!" Naruto yelled.

They crossed the street and greeted each other. They started to walk and talk to each other.

'So far so good.'

They went to class normally aswell with Kakashi late as usual. P.E started to get even weirder every time she was there.

"Okay my youthful students! Do 20 laps around the track!"

And what would make it even worse; the teacher would have a strange look-alike with them.

"Ah, it feels great to be youthful!"

And what med Sakura feel even more stranger, Rock Lee, the look-alike, would start hitting on her at some times which made her uncomfortable.

It was lunch already and Sakura was relived to get out of that class. She ran to the dojo but it there wasn't any practice. She took her bento but decided to go and eat near the football fields. She found another cherry blossom tree so she sat on the grass and started eating. She looked up and saw that the soccer team were having their practice.

She searched for a raven haired boy who was kicking a ball freely into space. Sasuke spotted her. Sakura didn't know what to do. She waved uneasily like a robot and tried to smile. But he wasn't looking so Sakura sighed once more. A few minutes later, Sasuke came up to her panting.

"What pant are you pant doing here?" He asked in between panting.

"I found a cherry blossom tree so I decided to sit her." Sakura mumbled still eating something.

"Well I suggest you sit somewhere else because Lee would be coming here. He's a bench warmer and he usually comes after practice."

Sakura nodded and packed away. She did not like Lee. Sasuke grinned and pulled her arm. He led her to a glade which had a lot of cherry blossoms. Sakura's eyes widened and awed the beautiful scenery. She sat under a random cherry blossom tree and closed her eyes. She felt Sasuke sitting next to her.

'I didn't know he could be that nice.'

The wind blew past the couple and the petals danced gently in the wind.

Lunch passed and the school day ended so Sakura rushed to the dojo. She saw Kakashi on the phone talking about a two new students that were coming to the school soon. Kakashi hung up and saw Sakura just standing there.

"Did you just hear all of that?" He asked in a queer voice.

Sakura nodded.

"We're going to be having new members joining the kendo club and they seem to be very talented in it just like you. They're going to be in the same class as you so Tsunade-sama has decided for you to show them around school and the kendo club. Would like to do it?"

Sakura just nodded again. She went into the changing room again. She came out and saw that Ino and Naruto had just come.

"Konichiwa, Sakura!" Naruto shouted from the door. She waved weakly and walked over to them.

"We can go home early for practice since you won the tournament last weekend. Do you want to go somewhere tonight?" Ino asked.

Sakura shook her head. She didn't feel like skipping practice so she stayed for half an hour and then left.

She passed by the football fields and saw the soccer team practising again. She sat on the stands where usually the audience would sit. She sat there watching for a few minutes and then got her notebook out. The practice ended and a shadow loomed over her. She looked up to see Sasuke with his kit.

"Do you want to go now?" He asked.

Sakura nodded and packed up her things. They had made an agreement to walk home together for some strange reason.

A few hours earlier

Sakura still closed her eyes and felt someone nudging her.

"Hey, are you awake?" Sasuke asked beside her.

She opened her eyes and started to eat again. A few minutes passed and they dealt with the awkward silence.

"Do want to go home together?" Sasuke suddenly asked, breaking the silence.

Sakura looked up and thought about the sudden question.

"Why?"

"Because I want to know more about you since you're not a fangirl of mine."

Sakura was still confused but accepted.

'Our houses are next to each other anyway. That must be the reason.' Sakura thought carelessly.

They silently walked along the pavement, waiting who was going to talk first. They finally had a conversation going about three quarters away from their house. Sakura unlocked the door of her house and entered. She did her normal routine and started scribbling words in her diary.

'Okaa-san, Otou-san and Onii-san in heaven,

Sasuke wanted to walk home with me today and the rest of the school days. He had a strange reason but I just accepted anyway. I can already hear the faint voice of Onii-san saying that he might be the one. I shall find out on the upcoming spring dance in three weeks time. I have already signed up early to decorate. I don't think I shall find a date for it.

In kendo Kakashi-sensei tells me that there will be two new members joining soon. They are also transferring in the Academy aswell. One of them is a girl and the other is a boy. He hasn't told me their names but I shall be very excited to make new friends with them. I am also trying to play the guitar, flute and violin. I want to try it since it looks fun. Send me your wishes for the future that I am trying to make. I have a feeling that this will be the best school life I have ever got in my life.'

Sakura stopped and waited for the wind to drift away some petals. She then stood up and decided to practice again.

The next day came and seemed really ordinary to her. She was really excited that she could learn all of the instruments. Her plan so far was falling into place.
