Well here we go the next chapter, ya I know took me a while, but I never got the chance to finish it! And about half way through I thought it sucked but as I kept going I liked it again.
You see I like to establish the back ground of the characters and the story, but in all my other stories I don't really start them, I just start from a scene and explain it from there, this story I actually started it... so I needed the introduction, trust me it will get more involved, but I needed to explain everything...
Disclaimer: I dont own Naruto
New Town
The small blue car pulled up alongside a large old looking building, it was their apartment complex, red brick four stories.
Naruto pushed the door open to their second hand car looking up at the building, ok well it wasn't fancy in any stretch of the imagination, in fact you could say it was the opposite, the place looked like it would blow over at any moment.
Turning to his aunt as she got out the car he smiled to her, at least this was a hell of a lot better then staying back at their old town.
Tsunade dusted her hands off onto her jeans as she frowned looking at the place before looking to her blonde nephew, "Well no wonder the rent was so low, ahhh well I'm sure it's a lot nicer inside,"
Well it sure as hell wasn't any nicer, the lobby was painted a dull brown the floor a cream lineal that appeared to be stained, Naruto grabbed hold of his Aunt's hand as they walked down the lobby to the reception desk.
A few pieces of mixed and matched furniture illustrated the large lobby along with a pot plant that appeared to be dying in the corner, Tsunade smiled down at Naruto, "Dear, your 15 isn't that a bit old to be holding my hand?"
Oh that's right, Naruto let go of his aunts hand blushing before punching her in the arm defensively, "Hey…I thought you might need some comforting…coming to a new place and all,"
Tsunade snorted, "Speak for yourself, Naruto you seem to have forgotten my age I'm a woman who has moved to a lot of places in my time."
The man at the desk was asleep, Tsunade had to thump her hand down on the reception desk a few times before the over weight man who was drooling finally awoke, he almost jumped at seeing the large breasted woman in front of him who was looking truly pissed off.
"How can I help you?" the man asked his voice was raspy.
"I'm one of the new tenants, room 87," Tsunade said in quite an ordering sort of voice, the man nodded looking through his draws before pulling out the keys and handing them to Tsunade who took them before going to the elevator.
"That's funny Tsunade, he didn't even ask for identification," Naruto commented as he got into the elevator after Tsunade.
"Heh, Naruto all I can say is a woman has to learn how to talk to a man and get her way," Tsunade smiled.
Naruto rolled his eyes before hearing his aunt curse the elevator, she then turned to the blonde, "The bloody thing doesn't work!"
With that Naruto and Tsunade had to take the rickety stairs, Tsunade was in the lead Naruto heaved himself up one step after another discovering just how unfit he really is.
It was quite unfortunate when they found out that room 87 was on the top floor, reaching it Tsunade and Naruto made their way down the skinny hall to their room, Naruto looked from one room to the other, most doors was closed the ones that were open showed older people rocking in chairs and muttering to themselves.
Naruto really didn't like this place so much, and wrapped his arms around him speeding up after his aunt, they soon reached the end of the hall, their room 87. Tsunade pushed the key into the lock opening the door, Naruto peered in, the room was dark as all the curtains were drawn the room was small most of it was covered in grey carpet apart from a smaller section that was wood that led to a small side kitchen, off the small room led a short hallway with doors leading off from it, one was the bathroom another the laundry and two of them where bedrooms.
Tsunade sighed walking into the room, "Well I know its small, but it was all I could afford, I'm sure it will be like home for us!" with that she walked over to one of the windows pulling the curtains open before smiling and turning to Naruto, "See not everything is bad, take a look at this!"
Naruto walked over to his aunt peering through the window into the large expanse of park land, he could see a lake that was adorned with tree's and if he squinted he could see swans, smiling he turned to his aunt, "Perhaps I can go down some time?"
Tsunade gave him a sweet smile seeming to say yes, "You can… right after you help me unpack everything!"
Naruto pouted before moving to one of the bedrooms finding all the boxes that the movers had already moved it, proceeding to move one of the couches by himself.
After everything was set up in the lounge room/dinning room Naruto picked himself a room the one furthest down the hall, the wall was a peeling teal and the carpet the same grey as everywhere else in the house.
Setting his bed up and arranging the furniture he pinned some posters up of visual kei bands he liked such as Gazette and Alice Nine before moving to a box and pulling out a picture frame he sat silently looking at it for a few moments before placing it down next to his bed getting up and running to the kitchen…the picture was his parents.
Tsunade was too lazy to cook so they ate pizza as they sat on the couch playing cards, Tsunade beat Naruto horribly, "Ahhhhh DAMN YOU OLD LADY!" Naruto complained, "Now I have to do the dishes for a week!" he crossed his arms in annoyance.
Tsunade laughed before looking at her watch, "Dear kami look at the time! You better go to bed you have school tomorrow!"
Naruto groaned not wanting to have to go to that place of so many unhappy memories, Naruto had never fit in at any school and really dreaded the thought of going to a new one, having the tedious job of making new friends, making the teachers like him and yet making them not like him too much.
"Awww! Come on, we just got here!" Naruto complained.
Tsunade glared, "Bed now!"
Naruto didn't disobey the lady getting up and making his way to his room.
Naruto turned to his side looking at the picture of his diseased parents, he ran a finger down the side of the frame before drawing his hand back, "I promise I wont stuff it up this time," he told his parents before closing his eyes and slipping off into a well awaited sleep.
Naruto took in a deep breath as he starred up at his new school, it was pretty and very large, white plaster and red brick, with vines growing over the walls. Of course this was a private school, Konoha Heights Private even the name was pretty fancy.
Naruto looked down at his jeans and baggy black shirt, so he looked pretty casual but Tsunade hadn't got his uniform yet, damn that woman just dropping him off at the front gate and expecting him to make it from there.
Pulling his bag more securely onto his back he made his way towards the office, or so where the signs said the office was.
Making his way in he looked about him, this school looked a lot nicer then his old one which was covered in graffiti and rubbish, this place was spot less.
Walking into the office lobby he made his way to the front desk the whole time very aware of how his heart had sped up.
"Hello…" he said meekly.
Then all of a sudden a smiling man with a long grey beard appeared before him making Naruto jump back, "Well hello there! I'm Jiraiya the principal of this school…" Jiraiya stopped and looked around him with a disgruntled look on his face, "It seems like the office ladies really did strike…ahhh you know ladies and never being able to take a joke!" Jiraiya stopped there probably best he didn't go on with what he was going to say and why the office ladies were in strike.
"Anyway little guy, what do you need?" Jiraiya said leaning his elbows on the desk, Naruto was shocked by this man but seemed to like his friendliness.
"Well, I'm Uzamaki Naruto and I'm new to this school… I was wondering if you could tell me where my class is," Naruto smiled, yes be nice, be very nice…he didn't want to get a bad first impression with the school principle.
"Oh yeah!" Jiraiya exclaimed before coming out from behind the desk, "Got told about you! You class is…hmm yes English!" with that he whisked Naruto off after him.
Naruto followed the older man a smile appeared on his face, everything was doing really good perhaps this school would be a lot better then his last he would just have to keep his secret to himself.
Jiraiya arrived at the classroom turning to Naruto before pushing the door open, "Iruka!" he exclaimed the teacher inside had brown hair that was tied back, he was slim but he had scar across his nose, he also had a pretty annoyed face expression on his face, "Yes…"
Jiraiya laughed this off before pushing the confused blonde forward, "This is Uzumaki Naruto and it's his first day, I'm happy to tell you that you'll be taking him on his first class!"
Naruto turned to thank Jiraiya only to find him gone, gulping and turning back towards the classroom awaiting him, and all the kids faces. Naruto braced himself before stepping into the class.
Naruto distinctively remembered this feeling from entering every other classroom from all the other schools he had attended, the gazing eyes. Ones of friendship and good wishes, but to accompany that were ones of people who looked down at him, or were getting comfort in the thought that they were better then the new student. Naruto hated it and tried to ignore it, he was here to study, and he didn't need friends.
Iruka smiled at him beckoning him forward, Naruto walked up to the handsome man, "Why don't you introduce yourself?" Iruka said, yet it seemed to be a request Naruto knew it was more an order.
Naruto put on his most convincing fake smile, first impressions are everything, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto and I just moved here…there's nothing much to say, Your probably not interested in me, and I'm not interested in you so we are at a mutual understanding," Naruto turned to Iruka nodding to say he was done, the teacher was frowning.
Naruto walked to one of the spare seats next to a girl with shoulder length black hair, she was blushing and muttering 'his so cool!' Naruto turned abruptly, "Nani?!"
She blushed even deeper digging her face further into the book, Naruto slowly turned to the front, what a weird girl…
Class progressed, much to Naruto's discomfort the girl kept sneaking looks at him, the rest of the class seemed to be doing it as well, he felt like an insect getting examined.
"Hi, I'm Lee!" the boy on Naruto other said excitingly leaning over and holding out his hand, a huge smile on his face, he had perfect teeth Naruto examined he also had a bowl cut that was black, Naruto smiled warily back before reaching out his hand, Lee grabbed it eagerly.
"It is always great to have a new influence at a school! I can not tell you how wrapped I am to find someone new to share my interest's with! I certainly hope you and I become friends!" with each word Lee kept dragging Naruto forward, before pulling him into a hug.
"Hey freak let the new kid go!" a mean girlie voice called out, Lee instantly let go of Naruto blushing, "Sakura-chan!"
Naruto turned to see the pink haired girl who was linked arms with a blonde haired girl, this Sakura was pretty average looking her hair was tied back but her face was looking very serious as she examined Naruto up and down.
She smiled walking forward and pushing the blushing Lee out of the way, "Why hello, I'm Sakura the if I may say it, most popular girl of this school," she said flicking her hair.
The blonde haired girl scowled, "You wish Sakura!"
"Damare! Ino-pig!" Sakura squealed, before looking back to Naruto, "I don't think you want to been seen hanging around with the likes of…" she motioned her eyes in the direction of Lee, "If you stick with us we can show you who and who not to been seen with," she smiled showing her sparkling teeth, Naruto was instinctively reminded of a shark about to attack.
He turned back looking at Lee who looked lost and sad, before looking back to Sakura, "I think I can tell the wrong sort for myself thankyou," he said in a pleasant yet stern voice, before walking back over to Lee who looked extremely shocked.
Sakura stood with her mouth open before crossing her arms and pouting, "Whatever bratt, you made a bad choice today," with that she swiftly turned heading away before stopping as she saw the dark haired girl beside Naruto snigger.
"What is it Hinata-bitch? Want to tell us all what's so funny?" Sakura glared at the girl her spiteful tone purely evident.
Hinata stopped laughing clasping the sides of the table, fear crossed her face as she shook her head violently, "No…nothing, nothing was funny Sakura-san,"
"Hmmmp, thought so."
Lee turned to Naruto with his mouth hanging open, "I…can't believe…"
Naruto only smiled he didn't need Lee to finish his sentence, "I don't judge people on their social status, I think I can tell who the real freaks are," he motioned to the back of the class were Sakura was standing, this made Lee laugh before he picked at his jumper.
Naruto raised an eyebrow, he was extremely good at reading people, "You like her don't you?"
Lee blushed, "Hai, I have loved her for many years now! I hope that one day she will return my affection!"
Naruto rolled his eyes, "Well I guess you cant help who you love….females." Naruto would never get how Lee or any other guys could like a female like Sakura, they were all creatures of gossip and back stabbing.
"Huh?" Lee asked.
"Don't worry… Trust me she's all yours," Naruto laughed, he actually felt pretty good he had made his first friend.
The bell rang, Naruto gathered his things together, waving as Lee started to walk off. Heaving his bag onto his back, Iruka came up to him passing him his time-table, "I hope you make many friends Naruto-kun,"
Naruto nodded to Iruka smiling, too bad he had already made a enemy.
Looking at his time-table he found that he had Japanese next, starting to make for the door he stopped upon seeing the dark haired girl pulling her books into her bag he could see the residue of tears on her reddened cheeks, she coughed about to walk away from her desk when her bag ripped her books scattering over the ground.
The girl bent down to pick them all up, Naruto quickly approached her bending down and gathering her books together with her, the girl stopped blushing looking up at Naruto, "Thank…you," she grabbed her sleeve wiping away the tears.
Naruto beamed a smile at her, "No worries, I'm Naruto." Picking up another book.
The girl blushed brighter, "I'm Hinata,"
Naruto rose and the girl stood up with him, their arms both filled with books, "Hey, about before I'm sorry you got dragged into that. Don't listen to her, she's the bitch." Naruto had a soft spot for all humans in need.
Hinata smiled, "No…don't apologize, thankyou Naruto-kun… your truly amazing!"
Naruto couldn't help but blush at this comment before smiling it away, "Well have you got a locker? I can help you bring your books to it?"
With that they made for Hinata's locker together, chatting as they went, Naruto couldn't believe his luck already he had another new friend.
Reaching Hinata's locker, piling the books in, in a hurry Naruto was already 10 minutes late for his next class on his first day.
Exchanging a chaste goodbye, Naruto promised to meet up with Hinata at lunch before making for class.
"God, you could have picked a better time to leave you guitar at home Kiba…" the dark haired boy said in an angry tone, as he walked down the corridor that was now filling with their fans.
The five boys clad in tight pants and collars tried to ignore the girls who were throwing themselves at them and asking for signatures.
"Hey! My dad was rushing me! Ok!" Kiba piped up, "You try living in a house with 7 siblings, you get distracted really easily!"
"If only we were all so distracted…" the cool red headed drummer said, he had already a list of 5 people who were on his death list, his mind was always consumed.
A boy with long dark brown hair swung his arm around the red haired drummer, "Ahh Gaara, maybe its time you forgive and forget."
Gaara glared at the brunette, "You're only saying this because you are on my killing list…" Gaara would not forget the event in which Neji had stole his belt before going out to preform live, on his way to the drums his pants fell down… everyone in the school knows what Gaara looks like in his underpants.
Neji withdrew his arm looking a bit nervous, "And what a great sight it was?"
This received another glare.
The irritated raven haired boy just turned to Kiba, "Just make sure it doesn't happen again!"
Kiba raised his hands in defence, "ok, ok ice prince!"
"Don't CALL ME THAT!"
"hmmm troublesome…" the other the bass guitarist muttered, knowing how hot headed the vocalist could be.
