A/N: I apologize for posting this chapter so late! I hope that you guys can find it in my heart to forgive! I'll try and update the rest of this chapter tomorrow, but the key word is ry. Hopefully I won't have that much homework….

Naruto felt extremely conflicted. On one hand, he wanted to hurry up and sit down so he could find out what team he was on. On the other hand, he didn't want to be near the Hyuuga. It wasn't as if he hated her, he just feared her, like most people did. He had gotten beaten constantly by villagers who were nice to everyone but him. Naruto was frightened to think of what someone who seemed extremely psychotic and hated everyone would do. He gulped again. 'Probably not anything good.' He thought to himself.

Hinata was extremely excited. Someone was going to sit next to her! She just couldn't wipe the smile off of her face. She always enjoyed it when someone was forced to take a seat besides her. Although she couldn't tolerate any of her peers, scaring the piss out of them and seeing their reactions up close was always a blast for her. Unfortunately, most found a way to not sit next to her. Either by going to the nurse, or going to the bathroom and just never coming back to class until the next moment they could switch seats. Like after lunch or something.

But now, Naruto had no where to go. He couldn't go to the nurse or the bathroom, lest he miss learning about which team he's going to be own.

He was trapped and she knew it.

And she was going to make the best of it.

'Oh yes!' She thought, 'Yami has blessed me with a toy today!'

'Oh me oh my! How right you are! What a wonderful turn of events, he's like a new best friend! Not that we have any use for friends….'

'Best friends…'

'The very best of friends….'

'Almost sibling like….'

'We might as well be siblings…'

'Oh yes….'

'Indeed….'

Hinata didn't bother with responding back to the voices; instead she chose to watch her new toy carefully. She was waiting for him to fuck up somehow. Nothing screams torture like some good ole' public humiliation!

Naruto reached for the chair, he never took his eyes off Hinata, incase she tried something. Like try and stab him, or poison him someway. He wouldn't put it past her to do that.

He pulled the chair back and prepared to sit.

"What do you think you're doing?"

Naruto's head snapped up at the sound of Hinata's voice; everyone in the room tensed. They were all anticipating a scuffle between the two biggest outcasts in the village. A majority of them hoped that the two would kill each other in a fight.

Naruto searched in his head for an answer. 'Is she being serious? Does she really want an answer? Or is she just messing with me?'

He was indeed confused on whether or not she actually desired an answer, or if this was another one of her sick mind games. He decided to go for the former, and hope for the best.

"Umm...I'm sitting down?..." He hated how unsure that came out.

Everyone held their breaths as the smile slowly slipped from her face. She angled her body so she was facing him and folded her hands together.

"Now, "She began, her voice unusually serious," who said you could sit here?"

Naruto was bewildered; he tried to sputter out a response

"Well, um, there was nobody sitting here so-"

"So what? That gives you the right to sit here?"

"Well no, but I thought-"

"Thought what? That any seat in the classroom was yours for the taking hmm….?"

"No but since it's the only seat left I-"

"You what? You assumed that I would just allow you to sit here?"

"N-no, I-"

"You didn't even ask if you could sit here, or if it was alright with me! You just tried to sit down, like you own the place."

"Look, I'm sorry-"

"Then ask."

"Excuse me?"

"Asks me if you can sit here."

Naruto was frustrated. She not only kept interrupting him, but she wouldn't let him sit down! 'Kami! She's acting as if this is the best damn seat in the whole classroom!'

Naruto let out a huff and tried to clam himself down.

"Can I sit here?"

"I don't know, can you?" Now he was getting pissed.

"Fine. Can I please sit here?"

"I don't know, can you?" Naruto had to take a deep breath in order to really simmer down. He was really fucking angry. He had to go threw this most of his life, where kids and adults would dangle something akin to friendship and affection in front of his face and would never let him reach it. She was really getting on his last nerve. He decided to make one last attempt.

"May I please sit here?"

"…."

She stared at him for awhile, before letting out a wide smile that seemed extremely sarcastic.

"Why of course you can Naruto! All you had to do was ask!"

What. .

This time, it was Naruto who was staring at her. He was gaping at her. One word, because he changed one simple word, he got to sit down? What the hell was the big deal?

'What game is she playing at?' He wondered, eyeing her suspiciously. He continued his previous action of pulling out the chair and taking a seat. All while Hinata was basically beaming at him.

Iruka cleared his throat in order to get everyone's attention. Naruto felt relief when Hinata turned her attention back towards her book.

"Now, before I begin reading the team placements, I just hope that you'll all remember that the Hokage picked the teams that would better benefit you and the village."

Naruto heard Hinata quietly snort next to him.

"Now, this means that I expect you act like adults and realize that you might not get the team that you want to be on. So no pouting, whining or complaining. Understood?"

There were a chorus of "yes" and "Yes sensei."

He smiled at them, "Good, now team 1 is…."
