A/N: Ok, first a headsup. I am very, very, not caught up in Naruto the series. I really need someone who can tell me anything that's happened with Suigetsu and Karin recently. But for right now, an AU. I'm going to try to go back to updating weekly again, but as usual, I can't make any promises. I swear I'll try this time though.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. I make no profit from this.
Warnings: Strong themes! A little language.
"That Karin girl is such a bully." Ino Yamanaka shook her head.
"I know, did you hear she could get kicked out of school this time?" Tenten rolled her eyes.
"She really did it, didn't she? Punched that Sasuke Uchiha guy and broke his nose." Hanabi Hyuuga fit right in with the gossiping older girls.
A white and lavender blur ran past them, towards the office, almost knocking Hanabi over in the process.
"Watch where you're going, Hoozuki!" Hanabi shook her fist at the older boy. She would pick a fight if she could, but even with her fiery attitude, she'd still get her ass kicked.
"Karin, you broke a kid's nose. Do you understand how much trouble you're in?" Principal Tsunade glowered down at Karin, who was returning her glare without saying a word.
"Do you have a reason for trying to punch his lights out?" Tsunade continued. "Because if you don't have anything to say, I think this time, you're going to be expelled. I can't take any more of this."
"Fine. Expel me." Karin crossed her arms over her chest. "Do whatever you like. I don't care."
The vein popped in Tsunade's forehead. "Why you little brat-"
The door slammed open, snapping one of the hinges. Suigetsu Hoozuki stood in the doorway, panting from running across the school.
"Excuse me, Hoozuki, but we have a serious conversation going on here." Tsunade walked towards him, ready to shove him out of the room and slam the door in his face.
"Don't expel her!" Suigetsu huffed. "Sasuke Uchiha tried to rape her, that's why she hit him!"
Tsunade blinked, in shock, and then looked at Karin. "Sasuke Uchiha did what?" She growled, studying Karin, who was now staring at her hands in her lap.
Karin didn't look up, but she gave a subtle, brief nod. "Behind the school. I told him no and he wouldn't stop so I punched him as hard as I could..."
Tsunade stalked out of her office, presumably to find the real troublemaker and leave the victim alone.
"You weren't going to tell her, where you?" Suigetsu huffed, putting his hands on his knees to finish catching his breath. "You're such a dumbass sometimes, Karin! You could've gotten expelled!"
"I wouldn't have had to see Sasuke ever again." Karin stood and tried to brush past Suigetsu, but the boy looped an arm around her waist.
"I thought you liked Sasuke." Suigetsu said, the one little phrase that said everything he needed to ask.
"I'm not dating him, why would I want to have sex with him?" Karin tipped her head back to look at Suigetsu. "Contrary to what everyone here thinks, I'm not a total slut."
Suigetsu grinned. "That's my girl." He laughed and kept his arm around her waist as he led her out of the office.
And that made that official.
A/N: As for what inspired this, I actually had an image in my brain of Suigetsu trying to get to Karin in time, in a high school setting, just an interesting fact. What'd you think?
