REALLY SORRY
Chapter Six: Day 2
Shikamaru trudged slowly through the hallways and up to science class. The door was locked as the kids lined up outside the class room. Choji stood by Shikamaru and they talked about what their homeroom was like.
"Well…" Shikamaru started. He told Choji about Gai "Sensei" and told him how hard it would be if they subtitled his class. Choji told him about his homeroom. He had health first.
Choji always seemed to think all the teachers health lectures were directed at him.
It was now five minutes after when class was suppose start. "Where is he?" Came whispers from the crowd. Mr. Hatake was seen coming down the hall. He unlocked the door. The students all filed in taking their appropriate seats.
"Well" Mr. Hatake started. "It would appear you are all late"
"WHAT!" Choji yelled. "It was your fault!" Choji's protesting got him no where.
Mr. Hatake handed out detention slips, and "accidently" skipped most of the girls in the front row. "This blows" Shikamaru groaned.
In science they played some sort of second grade name game… In order for Mr. Hatake to learn most of the names, although all he really cared aout were the names of the girls in the first two rows.
Science class ended as Shikamaru proceeded with a small group of kids towards Social Studies, room 218. Choji followed him as they met up with Lee and Tenten. They slowly paced into the class room and took their seats which were assigned the day before.
Choji sat a few rows in front of Shikamaru with Steve.
Shikamaru sat in between Lee and Tenten. If was seemingly disturbing when Lee spoke in the same way as Gai, and when Tenten's sugar rush kicked in.
It was good though, the first few days of school were just sitting around and getting to know your teachers. Well besides Tenten whispering chicken munchers in your ears, Social Studies was a pretty laid back class. Social Studies finished with a lecture about behavior. She then handed out a sheet which your parents had to sign.
It was now an exploratory class of Technology. Shikamaru enjoyed these classes because it was impossible not to get an A, no matter how much he slept.
Shikamaru walked down the hall and down the stairs to the technology room.
The room always seemed to be dark as the students filed in. They looked at the rows of computers as they set down their books on the floor.
Shikamaru took this time to scan the classroom for potential friends, and random filler kids, much like Steve. Steve was in his class along with Sakura and Lee.
He noticed Ino walk into the classroom. He stared at her for a long time, admiring her. She was talking with Sakura.She quickly looked over in his direction.
They made eye contact. Oh Crap, What do I do!? He thought to himself.
They continued to stare at one another as Shikamaru pondered this thought. "Do I talk to her?" He questioned. He took a deep breath and proceeded in her general vicinity. (A/N Don't you just love that word… Vicinity, heh heh)
He walked up to her, as they continued to stare at eachother.
She opened her mouth to say something.
He blushed.
"… Your hair is in the shape of a pineapple" She said quite amused.
He nearly fell over, his face was that tomato red I described before.
Although he ended up not minding as Ino proceeded to play around with his over sized pointy tail we have all grown to love.
"I like technology" He thought to himself.
They all took seats, two to a computer. He sat next to Steve as they chatted about their days.
A tall man then came from the back room. He turned on a projector then reflected on a wall. He was talking to a kid who's computer sat next to the projector. The wall read, Behavior In Class.
Jeez I hate these things Shikamaru thought dully.
It was lunch again as Shikamaru took it upon himself to pack his own lunch, only to realize what his dad had packed him was the only food source he had. Choji took out a Baconator, well actually three baconators. Naruto bought lunch today as Kiba chowed down on another sandwhich.
Naruto returned as he told how he was already on the virge of failing math. Kiba made fun of him for ten minutes. "My grade's a D! You idiot!" He laughed an evil laugh. Shikamaru decided not to point out that it was the second day of school.
Lunch was the best part of the day, food, friends, and the girls table was behind yours. Shikamaru was facing the girls table. So it wouldn't look suspicious if he was looking over there.
He noticed Sai sitting next to Ino, as a glare spread across his face. She was giigling as he whispered things in her ear.
Naruto leaned behind Shikamaru trying to line up what he was looking at.
"What ya looking at??" He asked in a very curious tone. Naruto then saw Ino and Sai giggling and laughing.
"Nothing" Shikamaru sighed as he focused in on his trix yogurt.
Lunch ended in a sad tone.
Shikamaru clicked the sim button in order to skip to the end of the day for football practice. Shikamaru already got the handle of this whole football pads thing. He exited the locker room with Kiba. A group of kids had already formed outside the locker room waiting for Gai Sensei to enter the gym.
Gai promptly entered the gym at 3:00. He lined up the kids and began stretches. Shikamaru lazily went through the motions and the kids began jogging around the gym. Sasuke and Neji lead the pack, Choji and Shikamaru were practically walking at the end.
"0kAY! Today we will do offensive drills, to give you guys the feel for the offensive plays we will learn to run! I do have to say, I have a wide variety of plays!"
Gai set up an offensive line and defense. "ALLLRRRRIIIGHT!" He shouted. He would shout out offensive plays and the kids would have to run them. "TIGHT END OPTION LEFT, WIDE OUT BLOCK 42, RIGHT BLOCK COUNTER PLAY iloveyou END FORMAT FLATS GOD DAMN CAPS LOCK!"
"Did that even make sense...?" Shikamaru thought. He just said hike after randomly saying a few numbers and threw the ball to Steve.
"THAT WAS AWESOME! YOU T0TA11y Pwn3d them!" Gai shouted as Shikamaru completed five passes in a row.
After two hours of Gai yelling seemingly pointless slurs of letters the kids got picked up on the late bus. All the kids on his morning bus were also on the late bus. Kiba was braggin about how he caught a ball for a gain of three yards. "It would have been more" Naruto started. "If you weren't running away from Sasuke for ten minutes."
"Thus bringing up another argument" Shikamaru mumbled. The rest of the bus ride was simply yelling. Although Shikamaru got into a brief conversation with Neji, like what exactly a Tight End was.
They came to a halt at Sikamaru's stop. He exited the bus along with Choji, Naruto, and Kiba. Shikamaru looked towards his house. Not entirely eager to head home. He turned towards the other three waiting for someone to say something.
"So, you fellas want to come over?" Kiba asked. The three without hesitation headed towards Kiba's house. Which was a couple houses down from the bus stop. They continued to walk on the street corner for a few houses until reaching a bright white house. Annoyingly loud barks could be heard from the backyard.
"Oh yeah, that's right" Shikamaru started, "You're the character with the dogs…" They walked up a brick path towards the front door. Kiba opened the front door sliding off his shoes, leaving them on the welcome mat. The others did the same.
Kiba's mom said hello to the boys, she was used to having them over. They boys smiled back at her and followed Kiba upstairs to his bedroom. After several attempts Naruto made it up the stairs as the others waited in Kiba's room.
Kiba was one of those lucky kids who had a TV and a playstation 3 in his room. Kiba sat on the edge of his bed a controller in one hand. Choji had already called player two as he sat on the floor, his back leaning on the bed.
Shikamaru was turning on the computer that sat next to the TV. He sat in a tannish colored spinny chair. He kicked in the button to turn on the computer with his toe. The computer began to make funny sounds.
Shikamaru looked at it in question. As the windows XP 1997 home page popped up. Naruto was looking through a stack of CD's Kiba kept next to his stereo.
Shikamaru finally managed to log into the obscenely slow computer. He looked in depression at Kiba's backround….
"Puppy Fest 07'?" Shikamaru asked in question.
Naruto peered over the shoulder of Shikamaru as a Puss In Boots in dog form sat on his home screen. Shikamaru just shook his head as he clicked on the AIM icon located under the puppie's nose.
He signed in under his own name, Troublesome1234. It took a while for it to process the pass word regestration. He took a look over at the TV as Kiba and Choji were in the middle of an intense Ninja Gaiden game.
"I bet I would be an awesome ninja" Kiba stated.
"I would be one of those buff ones with crazy hair!" Choji remarked.
"I would be one with a mysterious demon locked inside of him as he survives in a tragic sob story without a family and without any friends as he suffers devastating losses but gains friends along the way!" Naruto yelled.
Naruto just received several stares from the audience.
AIM had finally logged in as Shikamaru scanned his buddy list composing of three groups, Friends, Girls, and Queers.
Naruto protested the queer category. Mainly because he was the only one under it.
Shikamaru noticed the screen name, RandmKD14STVE.
He didn't have many people under the girl category, Just Hinata, Tenten, Sakura, and somehow some Senoir managed to wedge her way on there…
Shikamaru proceeded to chat with Steve, and Hinata, and was trying to focus out Tenten typing "Squibbles" in REALLY big letters.
He yawned as he looked in the bottom right corner of the screen. "My dad would probably want me home by eight guys. I should get headin home"
Shikamaru got up out of the spinny chair that proceeded to give him seemingly annoying back pains.
He said his good byes as he walked out of the door. And proceeded home to await day three.
