Chapter 3 : Enter new kid

The indigo haired, white eyed girl, wearing a beautiful blue kimono, ran around the playground with the little redheaded boy who has sea blue eyes circled by thick dark rings. They were chasing each other around the playground. The boy was running after the girl when he tripped and fell into a big black hole. The girl, shocked, quickly tried to grab his hand, but her small little hands couldn't reach his. The boy kept falling deeper and deeper into the hole. "NO!" she screamed. A tear slid down her cheek. She had lost him forever.

Hinata woke up with a startle. Beads of sweat clung to her messy blue hair and a tear was trickling down her face. 'That dream again' she shook her head and wiped the tear away.

She got up and "OH MY GOSH!" she shouted. It was nearly ten minutes before school started! How come neji nii-san didn't wake her up?! In a rush, she washed up, changed into her old boring school uniforms, grabbed her backpack, and ran to school as fast as a new car speeding down the highway.

Panting, she entered the school. Lucky for her, her house was practically next door to the school. 'damn.. one minute!' she thought as she checked her watch. She ran through the empty hallways, taking in short gasps when she crashed into something-or someone, and fell. Hinata looked up and saw a boy with red hair-much similar to the boy.

"Are you okay?" he asked, offering a hand to help her up. She accepted it and got up.

"Uh, yeah, I'm fine –glance at clock- sorry…I gotta go!" Hinata sped off, running to her first period class.

"Wait!" the boy called out, but she was already far down the halls. Silently, he picked up her phone; there was a white bunny phone keychain on it. 'reminds me of her' he thought.

RING (sorry I couldn't think of a creative way a bell sounds like -.-)

The bell rang and hinata stopped running, gasping for air. 'darn… tardy sweep!' She groaned and started to walk towards the office. She's never been to tardy sweep before. Hinata turned the knob open and entered to see tsunade-sama and that redheaded guy from before.

"my, my.." Tsunade exclaimed, "Hinata-chan? In tardy sweep?!" She shook her head, "Something I never thought I'd see."

"I'm sorry tsunade-sama."

"well," The principal continued, "since you are a responsible student with decent grades, I will give you an exception." Hinata nodded her head.

"This here," the blonde lady said, placing her hand on the redhead boy's shoulder, "is Sabaku no Gaara. He's a new transfer student from Suna; a very bright young man. Since he should be in most of your classes anyway, you can be his guide and I'll let you go to first period. Make sure he feels welcomed!"

Hinata nodded again and looked at Gaara. She saw that he was quite good looking. His hair was pretty long and smooth, and the red was just to die for! He had bright blue eyes that were lined by a thin black line. His body-well let's just say it seemed well toned; and his expression--so mysterious. Hinata slapped herself in her mind. 'Don't think like Kakashi-sensei!!'

"Ok then" Tsunade said, "off to class you go." Both students walked out of the office and into the halls.

"um… Sabaku-san, may I see your schedule, please." With no emotion in his face, he handed her the paper. She studied it and nodded.

"You have most classes with me…so…" She gestured for him to follow. Gaara stared at her and obediently followed.

'I think her name was Hinata…' She looked like a delicate little doll with silky white skin, sparkling lavender/white eyes, beautiful long blue hair, and that serene vibe that clung onto her. He whiffed a scent of which smelled like flowers and tea.

"uh… so…" Hinata said, not looking at him, trying to make conversation "How do you like Konoha so far?"

"eh…alright"

"-nod-"

She obviously wasn't very good at it. They arrived in front of the computer media room and entered.

"ah...Hinata" Kurenai-sensei said, "and…mr.new kid." Murmurs swept through the classroom.

"Please introduce yourself"

"hey… my name is Sabaku no Gaara and I'm from Suna." He said boredly.

"I think your hot!" one girl shouted. All the girls started to squeal. The guys just glared at him. Especially a certain mr. Sasuke. 'w-why is he with Hinata?!'

"ok, ok, everyone settle down." The students still kept talking. "I SAID BE QUIET!!!!" The class went silent.

"now, just take a seat on computer #22, next to Hinata-chan, Mr. Sand." Sasuke growled. Ok, so now he was sitting next to her as well! 'I've gone insane' he groaned, ' jealous of some girl' Wait… jealous? He definitely didn't need some girl in his life. 'Jealous…' he thought, 'I really am going insane!' He sighed and brushed his hair back.

Gaara and Hinata settled down on their chairs.

"Well." Kurenai-sensei exclaimed, "We are starting a new project today! You guys will be assigned in groups of four. In your group, you will create a short story film. You create your own storyline and etc. Two of you will make up the storyline and act it out while the other two will be filming and editing. SO the group works like this: Computers #1-4 are one group, 5-8 another, and so on and so on. Now figure out your groups and get going!"

The teens chattered, finding their assigned groups. To Hinata's dismay she was with 22 (Gaara), 24 (sasuke) and –uggghhh- 21… INOUE. 'Just my luck…'

"SASUKE-KUN!!!!!!!" Inoue exclaimed, "we're in the same group!!"

"-groan-"

"hey, hey!" she exclaimed, " I have an idea! We can do like a Romeo & Juliet thing for the story! ME and SASUKE-KUN will be the actors" she faced the other two groupies "and you 2 can edit."

"Hell no!" sasuke complained.

"ah… it's ok uchiha-san" Hinata said, "I wanted to edit anyway." Gaara nodded.

Sasuke sighed in defeat. "OK THEN!" Inoue squealed, "it's decided!"


Hinata and Gaara walked out of Jiraiya-sensei's College prep bio class.

"Are all teachers weird like him?" Gaara asked with a shudder.

HInata laughed. Jiraiya-sensei was making them study a frog while he was vigorously writing something. Gaara, having not knowing anything, went up to the hard working sensei to ask something. Unfortunately, he had a glance at the writing and had a nosebleed.

"Not really…" she smiled. They walked over to where Hinata's friends were at.

"Who's the guy?" Ino asked, nudging Hinata. She blushed, "he's a new transfer student…from Suna. And I'm his guide"

"Hey Panda!" naruto popped in, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto, coolest guy on campus."

"You mean the biggest dork!" Kiba said, bonking his head, "Hey, I'm Kiba." He extended his hand with super sharp nails. Gaara shook it with hidden disgust

"I'm Ino!" the blonde girl shouted, "and this is my BOYFRIEND shikamaru, Hinata's cousin, Neji…" "yo" "and our little buns, Tenten." "-wave-"

"hello…"Gaara greeted.

"HInata-sama" Neji said, "did you get to school on time today?"

"eh…" HInata started, "no… but I was excused…for being his guide."

"Ooooh MY Gosh!" they glanced around to see one the popular girls walk up to Gaara.

"Hey, handsome… be this lonely girl's boyfriend, won't ya? –wink-" She started to purr and Gaara looked annoyed.

"Please go away. I don't even know you." Other girls started to stop by and admire him too. "look and his sexy body!" "oh my gosh! I think he just winked at me!" A semi crowd (of course nothing compared to Sasuke's) was formed around him.

"Ah gosh!" Naruto complained, "And the new kid gets the ladies."

Gaara tried to get away from the crazy girls. Lucky for him the bell rang. He pushed away from the now fans of the i-gave-up-on-sasuke-and-going-for-gaara club. Gaara grabbed Hinata's hand and ran for it.

He didn't even know where he was going but he still ran away… away from those monsters. When they lost him he stopped running. Hinata blushed in a deep shade of red.

"um.. uh.. m-my hand" He let go of her delicate, warm hand, and she blushed even more. "Sorry…" he said. "so… you gonna lead the way?"


Finally the bell rang stating the end of the day. Hinata got up and stretched. She glanced at Gaara who still had girls surrounding him. She sighed. Every period there were at least 5 girls surrounding him, and others drooling over him.

"Sabaku-san," she said, squeezing between the girls, "we should go now." He nodded and pushed the girls away and walked with Hinata.

"Man!" a blonde boy shouted as he and his friends walked out of school, "I'm starving!"

"Then go eat baka" Ino said.

"Humph… I will!" he pouted. "hey! Let's go eat ramen!!!"

"NO!" Kiba shouted, "My stomache is still not digested from yesterdays…-groan-"

"maybe next time…" neji said, "but we need to go. Right Hinata-sama?"

"yes" she said.

"Fine!" Naruto yelled, "all you go ahead and leave me! I'll go with my best friend Gaara!" He turned around to see everyone gone… "MEANIES!!!"


Hinata and Neji were walking back to the Hyuuga manor.

"on no!" hinata yelled. "my cell! It's gone!" she dug around her pockets and searched in her bags, but no cell.

"Here, let me try calling it." Neji dialed her number and they heard no tune.

"I think I left it at school" she said, "I'll go look for it… you can go home first neji-nii."

"but.." with that she ran off to the school, in search of her missing cellphone, but not succeeding.

Finally after giving up, she walked out to the playground. Her chest tightened. She always tried to forget him… but he always came back… to taunt her…in her dreams. She sat down on the swing and gently rocked herself when a figure approached her.

"S-Sabaku-san!"

"Gaara"

"G-Gaara-san… what are you doing here?" He took out something from his pocket and handed it to her.

"You dropped it this morning." He said, glancing away, "well… see ya"

She watched him walk away and opened her cell. There was a text message on there…. From Gaara: Thanks for today -smiley face-. Hinata smiled. 'he's not that bad'

But She didn't know someone was watching her behind a tree, glaring.
