Chapter I


It is a quiet spring night. The end of final exams is coming closer and the stress level of all the students is winding down for the semester. In the far corner of the school library, first-year college student Sakura Haruno is studying eagerly for her Chemistry Exam. Her phone next to her brightens telling her she has an incoming message.

'Can't wait to see you babe'- Kenshi

She rolls her eyes and continues on studying. As she is studying though she could not seem to get Kenshi out of her mind. They have been going out since he graduated high school her sophomore year. She thought that the relationship they had would only last the summer, but she fell for him and started missing him after they ending it once she started school the next year. One text lead to another and they officially started going out.

Right now though, their relationship have not been the greatest. Actually they have been distancing themselves from one another for the pass few months. It started when she began her first-year in college. She had been busy and Kenshi did not seem to understand that, wanting more of her attention. Sakura wanted to break up with him, but once they meet on her breaks she instantly fell for him all over again.

'I need to find someone else,' she thought 'then I won't go back to him.'

After studying for three hours she feels ready for her last exam she packs up her books and heads back to her room for the night. As she enters her dorm she looks around the almost empty room.

'Good, no Karin.'

Karin is her roommate from hell. She is rude and disrespectful to Sakura. The last few months with Karin was not the happiest, but with tomorrow being the last day makes Sakura look forward to it.

"Sakura!" And speak of the devil.

"I am right here Karin you don't need to yell." Sakura said while she rubs her temples. Studying for chemistry for three hours does not put her in the best moods and now having Karin and her loud mouth in the room is just the cherry on top of her annoyance sundae.

"Oh well, I need you to leave because a certain someone is coming over" she demanded.

"No. It's the last night in the room and I need some rest before my final in the more. Can't you just go to his room or better yet study and get some sleep yourself." Sakura responded.

She always does this. Come into the room, disregard Sakura's feelings and politely kick her out, of her own room, just to slut around the hall. It was different the first semester. Karin was nice and they always hung out, but something happened over the winter break and Karin came back like this. Sakura always wondered what made her changed, or probably this is just her true self. Either way she hated it and she is happy that after tonight she will never have to deal with Karin.

"You are never any fun!" Karin exclaimed, "I just want to have a good last night with my man and here you go ruining it just like you ruin everything. I hate you!" Karin seethes as she slammed the door to the room

Sakura just stared at the door, shrugged her shoulders, and started getting ready for bed. If Karin wanted to be a drama queen she will let her, but Sakura will not let that outburst ruin her focus for her final that is tomorrow. She is just happy that she called the apartments that she was leasing next year and the manger, after hearing her story of the roommate from hell, let her switch roommates. Sakura would not know what to do if she was stuck with the Spawn of Satan for another year.

After preparing for bed, Sakura looked around the room. It was empty since she started packing earlier so she can leave when her final is over. She thought back through the year and she was happy. Besides the roommate situation, she had fun at the school. Meeting people was not really her forte, being somewhat shy, but once they started talking to her, she could not stop. She made many new friends and though she is happy to leave for the summer, she will defiantly miss those people.

She looked at her cell phone and it read 12:23. She needs to get some sleep now or else she will be tired for her exam. Looking around the room one last time, Sakura smiled, closed her eyes, and went to sleep.

'I'm coming home."


I hoped you enjoyed this first chapter. As the story continues the chapters will get longer this was just an intro before the summer starts, as you noticed. Next chapter will be about Sasuke. Sorry for any grammar and/or spelling mistakes, my Mac is not helping me as much as I want it to.
