"Ah, now that everyone is here," Kakashi said through his mask, "Allow me to introduce Sasuke Uchiha who will be joining us from today on at Konoha High."

"Oh he's sooo cute!"
"Those dark eyes are so captivating!"
"Do you think he'll let me call him Sasuke-kun?"
Annoying, that was the first thought that came to Sakura's head. Those stupid, squealing girls, and that arrogant bastard, Sasuke. Ugh! Get a life. As more bitter thoughts circled through her head, Sakura failed to notice Sasuke plopping down right beside her.
"Yes?" she questioned, turning to face those mysterious, yet alluring, obsidian eyes.
Sasuke just frowned and muttered something under his breath about an annoying girl.
Me? An annoying girl! Sakura fumed. Has he looked at all the fan girls sending me death glares from the back of the room? Jeez, I can't wait for this class to be over.

My heart hurts.
She was frozen to the spot as an eccentric, light blonde girl skipped by happily, dragging a pale, dark-haired boy along with her.
"Ah! Sakura!" cried the girl, completely oblivious to Sakura's face of despair.
"Ino…" Sakura muttered meekly, refusing to meet the gaze of her 'best friend' as she knew the boy standing beside Ino was gazing at Sakura, boring holes into her side.
"I didn't tell you yet," Ino squealed. "Sai and I are together!"
"That's…" terrible? Ghastly? Revolting? "…great."
"Ino," Sai's gruff voice interrupted their 'conversation'. "We should get going."
"Ah! Right!" Ino replied as she clung onto his arm. "See you around then, Sakura!"
Sakura just stared, dumbfounded, at the place that the couple had been standing, and bobbed her rosy pink locks up and down. She felt horrible. A sensation of repulsion was rotating in her stomach, and her eyes began to tear up.
"Oy, woman!" came the impatient voice of a certain arrogant bastard behind her. "Are you going in or not."
Suddenly fed up with the way she had been treated, Sakura turned abruptly to face Sasuke, and hit him hard across the face.
"Sorry Uchiha-san," she hissed. "But my name is not woman, it's Sakura Haruno, and if you want to go rub off your arrogance on someone, then may I suggest the group of fan girls over there who are just eager to get their hands on you."
With that, Sakura turned and fled down the hall, not wanting to look back.
"Haruno, was it?" Sasuke smirked, rubbing his bruised cheek. "You don't know who you're messing with."
