Chapter 5: Sasori, Deidara, and the school clubs
(A/N): obssessed with updating. i love writing this fic.
The Uchiha brothers are well-known inside the campus because of their good-looks and talents. But then two Arts major college students are also famed inside the KHSC campus because of their original creations and artistic styles, Deidara and Sasori are two of the highest ranked, popular, mostly praised students in the Arts college department. The two of them graduated KHSC High School together, and have been best buds ever since 1st year; due to their similar interests, though not always compatible with each other. During their High school sophomore year though. Deidara the clay molding artist found himself a new rival. It was the new student that year, Uchiha Itachi.
Itachi didn't seem to be interested in arts… but the way he didn't care simply irritated Deidara. This went on for years, up until now, that they're already 3rd year college students.
A week slowly passed since the first day of classes. Hyuuga Hinata seemed to cope up with the old students already, but as usual; her shy attitude didn't help her get to know each of them that much, and yet, still, there's no one in the class she got that close with except her used to be pre-school classmates, Shino, Shikamaru, and Kiba.
The following week…
Monday: Lunch time: Cafeteria
"Hinata, club signings will be up tomorrow… have you decided what club to join in already?" Tenten asked. Hyuuga Hinata, as usual, eats lunch with her fourth year friends; Lee, Neji and Tenten.
"Hmm… Not yet… I'm not sure on what club to join yet… If possible, I would like to join in a club where I would be really interested at and that where I would enjoy the most… but… I'm still confused…"
"Well, what kind of things do you enjoy doing the most anyway? Is there a particular subject you're interested at?" Lee suggested. Hinata just shrugged her shoulders in reply.
"I remember back then when you were still studying at that all-girls school… We had a family reunion and there you mentioned your sudden interest in taking pictures right??? But well, the photography club was full already, that's why you didn't have the chance to show off your talent… That was such a waste…" Neji blurted out. Lee and Tenten's eyes widened, but his cousin just blushed.
"That's so cool Hinata! We have a photography club here in KHSC! You like taking pictures eh? You'll fit right in there!" The excited female senior ecstatically exclaimed. Neji nodded.
"Yeah, I agree… But Tenten isn't the photography club recently merged with arts club???" Lee suddenly interrupted.
"Oh yeah… I forgot…"
"Wait, but isn't the arts club a strict 'all college students only' club?" Neji asked.
"That's what I also knew. Well then I guess that'll make the Photography and Arts club the only mixed high school and college students' members club." Tenten answered, the two nodded.
"Woah! So Deidara and Sasori fan girls from the High school department will surely join that club even if they're not interested in Photography and arts!!!" Lee suddenly squealed.
"Haha… That's a high probability!" Tenten laughed.
"But if that happens, the moderators will have a screening process before students can join the club then." Neji blurted. His two friends stared at him in confusion.
"Oh! right!!! Neji! You used to be a photography club member back during first year right? Hmm... That's why you knew all of this…" Lee asked.
"Oh yeah… I forgot… But even back then photography club and arts club used to go out together as a whole group, right? Because PC had only… 12 members, I think… Well then I guess this year they finally decided to merge the two clubs." Tenten added.
"That's cool. And the screening part would be much cooler." Lee continued.
"Then no problems Hinata! You can pass the screening test easily! I'm sure of that!"
"B… But Tenten…" the Hyuuga was still confused, but secretly excited. I've always wanted to take pictures… But I guess if there're no other clubs I'm interested in, I might as well give it a try…
The following day…
"Oh my gosh! I've heard Sasuke's joining the table tennis club!"
"Really? Wow! Then I might as well join that club!"
"Me too!"
"Sign ups will be this afternoon right?"
"Yeah. After lunch time…"
"Cool!"
Hinata heard a group of girls along the corridors talking about the coming club sign-ups. Last night, she already decided than she'll join the Photography and Arts club. But not because Tenten forced her to join or insisted her, but because of her own free will. Sad to say, neither of her senior friends nor her former pre-school-junior friends would be joining the said club. So she's on her own.
That afternoon…
RIIIINNNGGG!
Tenten said Photography and arts club's sign ups are located at the college department. What a pain… That's a long walk from here! Sigh…. Hinata thought as she slowly walked down the stairs. She noticed a lot of high school students rush towards the college building too. She suddenly remembered the previous conversation her 4th year friends had. Who… Who were those guys again? Deidara and… Sasori??? Sigh. I guess that's why a lot of H.S. fan girls will sign up for the PAAC today… They… just want to be in the same club as their crushes… sigh… how unreasonable…
Hinata finally spotted the room where the Photography and Arts club signups are held. She quietly walked inside and immediately noticed the large crowd that gathered at the center of the room. She made her way through the crowd and reached for the paper where students should write their name to formally sign up. To her surprise, there's only one spot left to write one name down.
The once photography club where almost nobody signed up were suddenly filled up after it merged with the Arts club. Luckily, her name written at the last no. in the form managed to squeeze its way in. She instantly sighed in relief.
She knew there was still a screening test to go through, but she kinda felt confident in that part since from what she read at the PAAC sign ups announcements yesterday, they will only require one artwork you have done or one picture you have personally taken, to be based whether you will be accepted in the club or not.
The instant she finished signing herself up, she immediately submitted the photo of a cherry blossom, taken personally by her to the moderators for the requirements of the screening test.
Tomorrow, the results of the test will be posted at the bulletin board located inside the cafeteria. That's how they will know if they're going to be a PAAC member or not.
Good luck Hinata… She whispered to herself before she finally left the college department/building.
