"Haruno, was it?" Sasuke smirked, rubbing his bruised cheek. "You don't know who you're messing with."

-Sakura-
There was a brief moment of silence. Then,
"Sasuke-kuuun! Are you okay?" squeals of worried fan girls came.
"Agh! Sasuke-kun, your beautiful face!"
"That pink-haired witch!"
Sakura rolled her eyes at the cries coming from behind her back as she continued to run down the corridors. Her beaten up sneakers pounding against the wooden floorboards. The echoes of the empty halls calling out to her.
Today, she thought, is going to be very interesting.

This is so awkward.
Sakura was sitting stiff in the chair, her eyes straight ahead at the teacher, but she could feel his glare embedding into her. Sasuke's breath was heating up against her neck, his eyes not averting for a second.
Then, he slipped a crumpled up note into her hand, and finally moved his gaze.
My face still hurts, you'll have to pay. It read.
"Wha-?" she questioned the boy sitting next to her, only to be interrupted by her teacher, Asuma.
"Is there something you'd like to share with the class, Sakura?" Asuma asked sharply.
"No," Sakura mumbled quietly. Her face blushed in embarrassment as a few giggles erupted from the classroom. Suddenly, she felt Sasuke's stare linger on her again.
Be ready, Sasuke mouthed, smirking at Sakura.

What the hell was with today? Sakura wondered, flopping down onto her pale pink queen sized bed. The insides of her room were covered with a rosy hue, and cedar floor boards covering the ground. pictures of her family hanging around the walls.
One picture in particular was her favourite. The portrait was of five-year-old Sakura, and her parents at Disney Land. Sakura was clutching a snow white teddy bear with a velvet, green scarf around its neck, that she had won at a fair game. The stuffed animal was now sitting on her bed, it's green scarf worn-out from the years.
That damned Uchiha brat, Sakura thought angrily. It's his first day here, and he already acts like he owns the place!
With that thought, Sakura felt her eyelids grow heavy, and she fell asleep with an angry look, forgetting about any homework that was assigned that day.

Damn it! Sakura furiously thought as she tore through her forgotten worksheets. The Hello Kitty alarm clock blinked 5:08 throughout the room.
Even though it was so early in the morning, the house had an empty echo. Her dad was yet again away on another 'business' trip. It has always been that way since Sakura's mom passed. The way she died has been a gruesome experience for Sakura. There was a hit and run while they had been on their way back from school. It had permanently scarred Sakura for life.
Since then, her dad had always been away. He was now an addict, bringing strange women to the house whenever he was home.
Sakura groaned as she slumped against the desk, the math equations laid out in front of her seemed to blur together, algebra was by far her weakest subject. This is not good, she thought as she watched her clock turn 6:30, by now, I'd be awake and getting ready.
7:22, and she had finally finished. There was an empty bowl that once carried cereal left on her desk. Sakura slipped on her Konoha High uniform, and peered at herself in the mirror. Her outfit was composed of a white, button up shirt, a blue plaid skirt, and a red tie that portrayed the emblem of her school. (A/N basiacally the Konoha forehead protector in the form of a tie.)
"I'm off to school," Sakura hollered, to particularly no one, from the front door.
With that, she bounded down the block to the grand building. Her steps were light and bouncy until a sleek, black, cruiser motorcycle sped by her, causing her to almost get run over.
"Watch where you're going!" Sakura shrieked at the driver, who had stopped to look at her.
"My bad," came the silky, all-too-familiar voice of a certain Uchiha, "I wasn't looking."
Then, without looking back, he raced off towards the school.

Stupid, chicken-ass haired jerk! Sakura silently screamed as she stormed off towards her next class, chemistry. Throughout the entire day he had constantly annoyed her with that constantly annoying smirk. Because of this, the entire Sasuke Fanclub sent death glares in her direction whenever they saw her.
Entering the Chemistry class, she spotted Naruto seated by the window. As he noticed her, the blonde motioned for Sakura to come sit beside him.
"Hi Sakura-chan!" Naruto beamed at her.
"Naruto," Sakura nodded at him.
As their teacher, Kurenai, entered the room, Sakura noticed a jar filled with slips of paper in her sensei's hand.
"Today," Kurenai spoke, "I am going to pair you up as partners for the rest of the semester. You will complete most of your projects with this person."
The class began to fill with chatter as looks of excitement were exchanged throughout.
"One more thing," the teacher yelled over the chatter, "you will be in boy-girl pairings, and your partners will be random."
With that, the whole class groaned in distraught. Kurenai began to pass the jar around to female students, letting them pick a male partner from the container.
"I hope we'll be together," Naruto flashed a grin at Sakura.
"Me too," she agreed as the vessel of slips was passed towards her.
Sakura reached into the mass of paper, and pulled out one. She gulped at the name plastered on the sheet. Her hands were sweating, and her heart was pulsing.
"Uchiha," she murmured, "Sasuke."
