A/N: Okay, so I have to admit, my spelling sucked, not to mention that there were a few grammatical errors. I type really fast that I don't have the time to stop and check before I upload it. So please forgive me if I have any errors. Pathetic? Yeah I know. So I'm stop feeling sorry for myself and give you the next chapter.

Recap:

"Hi there, I'm Sakura" said Sakura in her cheery tone. Sasuke was a bit taken back, but did not show it. This was surely the first time a girl didn't freeze or drool over him.

"Hn," replies Sasuke.

"Wow, I'm so taken back by your greeting" Sakura sarcastically stated. She tried to be polite, but noooo. The airhead next to her had to be rude and not even state his name. It is only fair, that they return the same politeness, right? She concluded that maybe some people didn't want others to know their names. She can never stay angry at a person for more than fifteen minutes. She decided to just let it pass. Maybe it was a 'new student' phase that she would have to grow out of. Well whatever the reason was, she hoped it would subside soon. She didn't want to be ignored throughout her whole junior year, especially since it was a new day. She turned her attention to the board and started to concentrate on the lesson and jotted down some notes.

He took a small glance at her and realized that she was concentrating on her notes. Hmm, this is going to be interesting, thought Sasuke.

Chapter Two:

The bell had rung, signaling it was time for their next class.

Sakura was making her way to her next class when she was pushed aside by the ever-growing crowd. It was the same one as before when she was trying to make her way to main office. She wonder why were there so many girls hovering over something, or someone. Curiosity got the best of her, and she found out that her feet had lives of their own. She kept on moving wanting to turn around, but her legs, just wouldn't listen. She was pushed from one side to the other, she was about to turn around when she found herself thrust into the middle of the whole group. It kept on moving, but Sakura wanted nothing more than to get away.

Sasuke noticed that the girl, named Sakura, was trying to push everyone out of her way. It seemed as if though, she did not want to be around them. It was weird considering the girls, meaning all the girls no matter what grade or age, they all tried to flung themselves at the group whenever possible. He let his mind wonder as to why she was so different. Why she didn't stare at him like so many had done before. While he was thinking about the poor girl, Sakura, on the other hand, was being troubled by all these people surrounding her and pushing her. She was having trouble breathing and her heart rate was increasing rapidly. She couldn't hear herself and tried to find her way back to reality.

It was hard at first, but Sakura was a fighter. She stumbled a bit here and there, but finally made her way out of the circle of fan girls. She could hardly breathe. She had to calm down or else she goes into another panic attack. Happy thoughts, happy thoughts, happy thoughts, Sakura kept on mentally saying it to herself as she made her way to her next class. Chemistry was her best subject. She had an affinity for Chemistry ever since she could remember. It was in her blood. Her grandfather was a successful doctor in the northern part of Japan. She wanted to be like him when she grows up. She wanted to be a doctor.

She was the first one to arrive, it was no surprise really. She sat down and took a look at her schedule. Asuma, huh? Hmm. . . . This should be interesting. . , as Sakura was thinking, the door opened wide to reveal a tall, yet lean figure walking in. She hadn't really noticed him as she stared at her paper trying to picture as to what the teacher would look like. He was nearing in on her, well next to her. He was almost there when, all of a sudden, Sakura looked up. Jade green met black onyx; their gazed seem lost within each other. What were only seconds, seemed like eternity. She broke the gaze by looking back at her schedule. A tiny tint of pink crept up on Sakura's cheek, which made her look even more beautiful. Sasuke noticed this continued strolling to his desk in the back. He smirked as he remembered her reaction. He looked at her and kept his gaze locked on her. For someone who likes the silence, it was growing unbearable, as he Sasuke was in a room with a very pretty looking pink head. He saw her looking around and wondered if she was looking for her classmates or maybe something else. He was curious as to what she was looking for, and decided that maybe it wasn't anything important.

Out of nowhere, a girl with platinum blonde hair came prancing in. She was humming 'Unfaithful' by Rihana. She was dancing until she saw Sakura and stopped.

"So you must be the new girl, huh?" asked the ostentatious blonde.

"Why yes, I'm Haruno Sakura" replied Sakura.

"Yamanaka Ino" the blonde flatly stated.

"Pleasure to meet you."

"Isn't it?"

"Oh! The nerve of this girl!" deadpanned Sakura Inner Self.

"Great, Mr. Hyde is back" sarcastically replied Sakura to her Inner Self.

She was brought back to reality when Ino yelled out her name.

"You know it is rude to space out on someone that took the liberty to introduce them self to you. You have any manners, Forehead-girl?"

"Ano. . . gomen Ino. I didn't intentionally mean to do it."

"Yeah well don't let it happen again!"

"Back of her plastic face!"

Both Ino's and Sakura's attention were turned to a girl who had her hair in two chinese buns on the side of her head. She had chocolate brown eyes, and was slightly taller than the two girls.

"Hi there, I'm Kunai Tenten" she held out her hand to Sakura.

"I'm Sakura" Sakura replied while taking Tenten's hand and shaking it. They turned around to see that Ino had made her way to her seat which is right next to Sasuke.

"Well, I should be getting to my class. If you have any trouble with plastic face over there, you just let me know. Oh, I have an idea, how about you and I spend lunch together. I'll introduce you to my other friends. So what do you say?"

"Ugh sure, why not."

"Great. I'll see you at lunch. Bye!"

She quickly dashed off and students started to make their way to the class. The class went okay and it was now time for the next class.

It was Phys. Ed. and Sakura was unsure if she should go. She heard girls talk about how strict she was when she was changing in the girl's locker room.

"Man, this wench is gonna be hell!" her Inner Self deadpanned.

"You're telling me. I'm stuck on the outside" she stated to her Inner Self.

"Just be careful, okay?"

"Aww. . You care, you really do care."

"Get a freakin' hold of yourself, woman!"

Her thoughts were cut short when she heard a woman scream out for all the girls to get out. When she got out, she immediately saw Hinata and a girl named Suki sitting there. Suki was a girl from her first period. She was nice and funny. She had short, brown hair like Hinata's and was a bit taller than her.

"Hey, guys" said Sakura.

"Oh, hey Sakura" replied Suki.

They heard giggles as they were chatting. They turned around to see that it was Ino and a few other girls that Sakura did not know. Suki told her about how Ino and her crew were know as the 'Plastics' because they were the richest girls in school. Everything about them were fake, everything from head to toe.

They were told by Anko, who seemed to be an okay teacher, to run 25 laps around the field. Okay, maybe Sakura quickly jumped to conclusions. However, she was the first one to finish her laps, followed by Suki and Hinata. Ino and her little minions were the last to arrive. Sakura was smart in not running fast or else her heart might give out. Note that they were running really slow, either because they did not want to sweat or they just didn't have the stamina to run fast.

The bell had rung and it was finally time for lunch. Sakura was with Suki and Hinata when they were walking towards that cafeteria. They saw that Ino and three of her little followers sat with the four (the guys: Sasuke, Neji, Shikamaru, and Naruto). They were talking and they were really loud. It was until they saw a girl trip in front of them that made everything worse. They were laughing at the poor thing. Naruto joined the girls in laughing while Shikamaru just smiled and Sasuke and Neji smirked. It was downright evil. Sakura saw Tenten motioning her over and she went.

"You want help out?" asked Tenten.

"Yeah, let's go" replied Sakura.

While everybody were looking and laughing at the poor kid trying to pick up her things, Sakura and Tenten joined in on helping her. The girl looked at them like they were crazy but Sakura and Tenten just smiled at her.

"Hey! What are you two think you're doing?" asked Ino.

"Honestly, plastic face, don't you have eyes, or did all that botox effect you vision as well?" replied Tenten. She heard Neji chuckle, but it didn't bother her.

"If you must know, we are helping her out" said Sakura. She was now standing up and was helping out the poor girl stand up too. As soon as the girl stood up, Sakura turned to her and asked her if she wanted to join them for lunch. However, the poor girl just turned around and ran outside as quickly as she could. Sakura, then turned to tell Tenten to just let it drop and start moving. Before they started moving, Ino spoke up.

"Hey 'forehead-girl', watch your back from now on. You got that?"

"Why are you threatening me for?" said Sakura

"Because you ruined my fun"

"Is that so? Well then, let me offer you some advice."

"What is that, Forehead-girl?"

"If you are going to threaten me, at least do it with some dignity" replied Sakura.

"Dead bitch walking" stated Ino

Sakura turned to her left and to her right as if she was looking for something, and stated, "Why Ino, I don't see any female dog around here."

Ino muttered something inaudible and turned to talk to Sasuke. Sasuke was more intrigued by the pink-haired beauty that he kept on staring at her. She has guts alright, thought Sasuke. Ino noticed this and decided to distract him. She leaned in and tried to kiss him, but he pulled away. Ino noticed that a lot of people saw her, and she wanted to do something that might divert their attentions. She looked around and saw that Shikamaru was just sitting there with his head on the table. If Sasuke does not see her, then she'll make him see her.

"Hey Shika-kun, I was wondering if you want to hang out tonight?" queried Ino.

Shikamaru shot her a glance to see if she was just playing around, but he saw that she wasn't. He just shrugged and said 'sure'. Ino squealed and tried to put on some lip gloss.

Lunch was finally over and Sakura had four more classes. She learned that Tenten was a senior. She made a lot of new friends in her other classes. She takes a lot of her classes with mostly the same people, this to include Ino, Hinata, and three of the four. It seems that Neji was also a senior and a cousin of Hinata. All in all, she was happy with her first day in school, with an exception of the event that had occurred during lunch.

As she made her way to her house, she couldn't stop thinking about the raven-haired that had caught her gaze. She never felt this way. It was an odd feeling that kept on tugging at her stomach. She sweetly smiled and sang 'I Write Sins, not Tragedies' by Panic! At the Disco.

A/N: Okay, so first of all, the teachers, I forgot all their last names and decided to just put in their first names. Secondly, I am having trouble on deciding whether it is Ino with Shikamaru or Temari with Shikamaru. As the author of this fanfic, I want to please my readers, but also have my say in it. That is why I have a say in the other three couples, but this on is a trifling one, alright.
