Eh...sorry if it's kind of confusing. I suppose I put it in a way that it is confusing. My apologies.

That was done on purpose. No, you could say it was a purposeful act of cruelty. The vase left my hand, and the girl's pink hair and pale face were dyed red. Between the pieces of broken vase, mingled with the water put in this morning, her red blood began to spread across the floor.
It was silent, but the silence seemed to be louder then the Sakura's soft, low cries. That day, a few school days ago, I was very angry at this one girl. Very angry at Sakura…

The weekend went by without anything noticeable or important happening. The drama all started on the first day back at school after the weekend.
"Sakura," A squeal rang out and a blur of pink and cuteness ran into Sakura jumping onto her in a glomp.
"Hey Tayuya, long time no see, eh?" Sakura asked laughing.
"Damn strait, it's been….like two days. I can't live that long without you," Tayuya wailed as she continued to hug Sakura.
"Great, great, but can you get off me," Sakura asked poking Tayuya with that last three words of her sentence. Tayuya laughed in response, but none the less got up off of Sakura.
"So how was it staying with your parent's workers?" Tayuya asked, no hint of mischief just honest curiosity.
"It was…interesting…" Sakura said vaguely.
"Didn't they have a son our age, spill," Tayuya commanded as she jokingly hit Sakura.
"It was Gaara, his parents work for mine…and I stayed at his house," Sakura said nonchalantly, the smile slid off Tayuya's face as it was replaced with disbelief, then a smirk.
"Eh? Gaara…really? That's interesting, huh, and you're still alive. Guess that means he's got a soft spot for you," Tayuya said impishly, Sakura rolled her eyes in response.
"Nah, he doesn't," She said, Tayuya shrugged and began running, pulling Sakura with her as they ran to make it to class.
"Hey Gaara," Tayuya shrieked as she ran into class, Sakura stumbling behind her. She eventually lost her balance and fell onto her butt, her eyes wide as she stared at Tayuya in a mixture of surprise and amusement.
"…." Gaara just stared at the two girls, no emotion on his face what so ever. Sakura stared at him curiously, but the moment her soft eyes met his hardened cold eyes, she dropped her gaze instantly.
She took her normal spot next to Gaara; Tayuya sat in front of Sakura. Class was long and boring, as usual, and everything seemed normal, but Sakura still couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. It was nagging her thoughts, irritating her mind, what was wrong?
Classes came and went, and finally lunch came. Lunch, the savior of sanity as well as the most social hour of all school days. Sakura and Tayuya ran into the cafeteria and sat in the normal seats, Gaara nearby.
"Gaara," a loud, whiny voice rang out, "Care to meet my brother, Naruto?"
Ino stood, her eyes wide, her laughter holding traces of hysteria in it. Besides her stood a blond haired boy, with scares on his cheeks, and muscles that seemed to scream "stay the fuck away from me," Ino smiled triumphantly, and she latched onto her brother.
"That boy, he's so mean, he ruined me," Ino cried to her brother, Naruto ruffled her hair and glowered at Gaara moving slowly but agile, he walked towards the red haired boy.
Naruto finally came to a halt, standing right next to Gaara.
"Yes, my sister is annoying, but did you really have to do that to her?" Naruto said softly, and with one swift movement he sent Gaara, headfirst, in the other direction.
People around stood amazed, Gaara as in Gaara the bad boy, kick ass, bad ass boy who also won, was flying strait into the wall. It was a fight nobody wanted to miss. Naruto ran swiftly to Gaara's crumpled form and with lithe movements Gaara was slammed again into the wall, blood trickling down his head.
Sakura stood, rooted to the spot where she was standing, her eyes wide with fear, her mouth slightly open in both confusion, surprise and anger, her fists balled. She suddenly turned, her eyes narrowed, and they landed on her target, Ino.
Sakura walked away from the fight, the small crowd watching, and Tayuya screaming obscenities at the Naruto boy, and stood right in front of Ino, mere inches away.
"You pathetic girl, you disgust me," Sakura whispered softly, so softly only Ino's ears could here. And then quickly and with as much strength as she could muster, Sakura slapped Ino hard across the face.
Ino staggered away, and Sakura ran towards Gaara pushing Naruto out of the way. She helped Gaara up to his feet, and with a last glare she half carried half walked the Gaara to the hospital.
Gaara awoke to bright light, his eyes focused on pink hair, it was Sakura. He struggled to get up, slowly second by second, regained strength was flowing into his body.
"Are you okay?" Sakura whispered timidly. Gaara cast her a cold look.
"Why did you have to interfere? Why did you have to get in the way?" Gaara asked softly, his voice cold, his face expressionless, his eyes emotionless.
"I…didn't want you to get hurt," Sakura said meekly, trying to defend herself.
"You…disgust…me," Gaara growled and with swift movements he took the vase next to the bedside table and smashed it into Sakura's forehead. Sakura stumbled away, her eyes wide, blood pouring down from the new cut.

That was clearly done on purpose. He looked strait into my eyes and threw the vase right at my forehead. He looked down on me without so much as a hint of shock. Between the pieces of broken vase, mingled with the water put in this morning, my red blood began to spread across the floor.
Through the pain I could feel his first and last true feelings towards me. He hates me, he really hates me. His clear green eyes told me so.
Does it make sence? Eh? Eh? Please review, tell me what you think, where I can improve and all that jazz.
Much Love,
