Authors Notes: Well here's the next chapter =] hope you enjoy.
[Chapter 3- Plan B: Getting Uchiha]
I took out my cell and as I was about to txt Temari something came up to my mind. I can't skip school twice in a row…=\
Damn.
What am I gonna do now? =(
-.- After School
Of course! =D
Dumb-ass -.-
Lunch, 3rd, and 4th passed by in a breeze. I didn't skip any of my classes even though I was tempted to.
I walked to the student parking lot and looked around for Temari's car. She usually parked aro-
I was side-tracked by the sudden alarm ringing sound of a sleek black Vectrix Electric Super Bike (Note: basically it's a badass motorcycle, look it up if you wanna see it)
I had always wanted to-
You can remember the long/complicated/hard-to-remember name of a motorcycle, yet you can't remember Uchiha's first name? -.- Epic Fail
.
Anyways…I had always wanted to ride in the back of a motorcycle but I had never gotten the chance =( I bet I could get the hottie who owns that motorcycle to give me a ride ;)
I walked near the motorcycle and slightly hid behind a tree and that let me have a clear view of the Vectrix.
As I stood there I spotted Uchiha walking over and eyeing the Motorcycle, apparently he also liked the Vectrix. Well who wouldn't.
Vectrix-haters duh
He looked sexier that usual because he was wearing some black sunglasses, and his hair was disheveled, probably since he was coming from gym class; he took out a pair of keys and then got on the Motorcycle.
OhMyGosh! NO FUCKEN WAY! DID THAT VECTRIX BELONG TO HIM!
-.- obviously
Ugh, Shut up your annoying!
I'm you, so technically You are annoying…dumb-ass -.-
That is really hot. Uchiha I mean. Not the annoying voice in my head.
-.-
He rode off casually with a navy blue helmet and looked so hot while wearing it.
I stared after him in awe, he was defiantly worth my new plan.
I heard some honking and I turned to see Temari's car. I smiled and got in the car.
"Tem. I need a ride to the mall." I said after I settled in the car.
"Oooooo! Shopping trip Whooo!" exclaimed Ino while a giggle.
"I'm going shopping." I clarified. "Not you."
"Aww! Why not!" she exclaimed.
"You'll see." was all I said.
"Ugh, whatever. You suck Sakura."
"I thought you were gonna scoop around for Mr. Mystery Guy, Ino." said Temari.
"True, but still. Shopping is like a haven for me." said Ino
"What Mystery guy?" I said Ino.
"You'll see." she said in a mocking tone, referring to what I had told her earlier.
I rolled my eyes.
When Temari dropped me off the mall I immediately went to the store I wanted to shop at.
When I saw the large red jagged letters as I entered the store, I smiled. This is where my plan officially starts, I thought.
I had only been to this store when I was in middle school; That was when I went through the whole 'rebellious faze' . Nowadays I usually shopped at places like Aeropostale, American Eagle, Hollister, and ect.
As I entered Hot Topic I couldn't help but notice the stares and gawks as I passed by. Some young girls looked at me as if saying 'what is this poser doing here'.
"Grow up." I told them as I passed by and walked to the wall where the female clothes were.
I looked up at the dark walls that were filled with many punk outfits, and band tees. Now which to pick? I thought.
As I stared at the many different outfits I could hear the store's music playing in the back ground. The loud screams, guitar style, and drum beat sounded familiar. I paid attention closely to the lyrics to see if I could figure out what the song was called.
~…my lovers…
I stood up and screamed! (I'm in love!)
You gave it to me…~
" 'Through the eyes, hatred' ." I quoted, as I continued to listen to the song. I remembered it clearly now and that last line of the song reminded me of Uchiha. The way he had looked at me in class today with hate in his dark cold eyes, and even since the first day I met him, I felt as if he didn't like me at all.
I wonder why, maybe 'cuz you're an annoying bitch?
-.- I'm not annoying and I'm not…well maybe a little! But that's no reason!
Sure, sure -.- dumb-ass
I continued to listen to the song and continued to sing it.
" 'There was no living creature as foul as I, and all of my poems were false' ." I was literally going in my own trip with the song, I had even started to head bang as I closed my eyes and listened to one of the many bands I used to listen to when I was younger.
"So you a fan of Chiodos?" I heard a male voice say, retrieving me from my thoughts.
Obviously, or she wouldn't be singing! -.- everyone is such a dumb-ass
-.-
I turned to see a young guy about 17 or 18 with white hair, dark eyes, and round Harry-Potter-like glasses. He was wearing a tight shirt that said 'Bullet For My Valentine :Fever'. He was also wearing black skinny-jeans, vans, and had gauges.
As I studied him further I recalled that I had once had a class with him at school. His name was…Karuto? Kobato?
That's an anime you Otaku -.-
Whatever!
Ka…something. ^.^"
"I used to…well…I mean I do like them…well not really, I was just…" I mumbled. If I lied and told him I didn't like them then I'd look like an idiot who got lost on her way to Hollister and ended up in gothic-land. And if I admitted that I liked them it could ruin my reputation and I would looks like a total poser…yeah, both things were bad ideas.
He let out an enchanting laugh.
"It's Sakura right? You don't have to lie. You basically knew every single word to the song and were jamming out pretty bad-ass." he stated with a smile. He wouldn't say anything…right?
"In middle school I was into that type of music." I admitted.
"And not anymore I presume? I'm Kabuto by the way. I hope you remember me from class."
I knew it was Ka-something! I was close! =D
-.- not by a long-shot
"Of course I remember." I lied.
"So tell me. Why would Miss. Soon-To-Be-Homecoming-Queen be here? At… punk-r-us." he joked.
"Nice one." I said with a smile.
He smiled as well.
"Well I'm looking for some clothes." I said after a while.
He looked at me questing.
"Don't tell me you've turned to the dark side? We do have cookies."
I laughed. I remember I used to have a pin that said 'come to the dark side. We have cookies' . That was really hilarious.
"I just want to see how I looked in punk clothes. Maybe just be like that for a day at school. Or for Halloween? It's about two weeks from now right? " I said.
He looked at me closely and nodded.
"Why do you wanna know how you'd look?" he asked. "I'm curious."
I looked at him, should I tell him?
"It's a guy I'm guessing… he must have you bad to have Miss. Queen shopping here." he said with a smile.
"Sorta." I admitted.
He nodded. "Well then let's get started." he said.
After almost an hour of trying on and off different outfits, I was filled with about 4 shopping bags of clothes. Kabuto had given me several suggestions and had even invited me to sing with his band 'Forsaken' for tomorrows lunch break at school. This was great! Things had turned out even better than I had expected. He had even suggested I dye my hair, but I thought maybe just some fake, aqua blue, dye -that would probably wear off in a day- would be better.
I thanked him and hugged him, he had really helped me in my plan to get Uchiha.
{The next day}
I woke up extra early to get ready for my big debut as…punk Sakura? Anyways, today was going to be a day to never forget. I was sure I'd have Sasuke like this. If he thought I was too 'preppy' well now he won't have an excuse.
I put up my hair into two pony sides on both sides and tied my hair with two black bands. I had a mini black vest like jacket with a hoodie that was open and showed what I was wearing under which was a pink corset with a zipper on the front and under that I was wearing a fishnet shirt. I had a black skirt and two belts. Both with studs on them. One had pink studs and the other silver. I was wearing a long aqua blue glove that matched the same blue of my hair- that was dyed blue at the ends only- and on the other had a smaller fingerless glove that was black and pink-that matched my corset color-. I had some large knee length converse and a choker around my mid thigh. Then last but not least I put on a mad-hatter- like hat with a skull in the middle.
"Done." I said, as I looked at myself in the mirror. "Get ready Uchiha, 'cuz I'm not giving up."
When I got to school all eyes were on me, like usual. I could hear the whispers:
"Who's the new girl?"
"Ugh. Looks like we have a new emo kid in our school."
"Whoa. Check that out."
"She looks like…no it can't be."
"Is that Sakura?"
I turned at the sound of me name and saw Ino and Temari eyeing me like 'WTF'
I smiled at them and winked while twirling, but as I was, I accidentally bumped into someone.
"Sorry." I blurted as I looked up into amazed dark eyes.
It was Uchiha.
He stared at me in awe and then as he looked me over more his expression darkened.
"Watch where your going next time." he said as he began to walk away from me.
I smiled as he walked away. I had defiantly made an impression. Looks like my plan is working already. Sweet.
"What the fuck." I then heard another familiar voice say.
I turned to the sound and I saw Deidara eyeing me wide eyed. I smiled at him and walked towards him.
"You don't like?" I said with a small flirty pout.
He wrapped both arms around me and pulled me towards him.
"I'd like and take you any way, but this is just…"
I waited for him to continue.
"Too different…in a sexy way, especially with that corset." he said as he then kissed me.
I smiled.
"I thought you wouldn't approve." I said.
"Hmm. Why are you doing this though?" he asked after a moment.
I cant tell him it's for Uchiha that's for sure! Ok think Sakura think.
For a second time in your life!
"I'm singing in a band today at lunch so I wanted to look the part." I told him with a smile.
"Oh." he said as he looked at me.
Yeah, he probably thought it was for a guy or for a more meaningful reason.
The bell rang then.
"Yep. Well I gotta get to class I wouldn't want to go late or anything so yeah." I told him as I walked away.
"Sakura get back here!" I heard Ino call angrily.
I turned to her and stuck my tongue out at her in a fun way and walked away to class.
When I arrived at class all eyes were on me, like usual, but this time was different. I ignored them and sat on my desk.
After that class I eagerly walked to my geography glass passing many gawks and glares.
When I arrived to class, just like before, Uchiha was already there. Sitting down with his hands supporting his head.
As I walked closer to my desk i felt as if someone was gawking at me. I turned to see Kurenai staring at me wide-eyed.
"Heya." I said to her as I smiled.
"What's with this? This is out of dress code and it certainly isn't Halloween yet." she said outraged.
Ouch! Halloween? So just because I wear black it's Halloween? Ok now I know how all those punk kids feel when people tell them these things.
And your one of the bitches who tells them things!
I don't! Well…not as much as I used to ^.^''
Bitch -.-
"So just because I'm wearing black today it means it's Halloween? Pretty harsh, considering several of your students wear black don't ya think?" I said as I looked over at Sasuke who was actually fixated on me.
His gaze had me almost petrified, but I was able to turn around when Kurenai spoke to me again.
"I did not mean it that way."
"AHA! So it is true!" I heard a familiar raspy annoying voice.
I turned to the door to where TenTen stood with her arms crossed across her chest and a smirk on her face.
I rolled my eyes. "Get out of the class bitch."
"Language!" exclaimed Kurenai.
"So you really are an emo now? Ha! Was it too much to handle? You can't have all the guys you want slut. I can't believe you actually dressed like it's freaken Halloween now! this is very…"
Enough with the Halloween people! =(
She turned around and seemed to have spotted Uchiha for the first time and seemed as if something had clicked in her head.
"…Different for you, so I'm guessing your doing it for a guy? Well, well. You do always throw your self at them like a whore huh? But I'm sure Sasuke isn't into sluts like you." She finished with a smirk.
"Yeah, so I'm guessing that's why he turned you down huh. I mean that first day you were all over him, but I guess he saw your overly whore-ness and wasn't interested huh." I said with a smile.
She glared at me and turned red. "Shut up bitch that's not what happened!" she yelled as she left the room fuming.
I smiled.
"Quite a show you put on there Ms. Haruno." I smiled at Kurenai's comment. "That wasn't a compliment." she added as she began to scribble something on a yellow…paper…Aww fuck!
"That's not fair! A referral? Are you serious! I was defending myself and that bit-"
"That's enough! Now take this to the office." she interrupted.
"Damn." I said as I took the paper from her hand. I turned to Uchiha for a brief moment and I couldn't be sure, but as he looked forward I could have sworn that I saw a small smile placed on his lips.
"Now Ms. Haruno we don't have all day!" exclaimed Kurenai as she saw me spacing out. I glared at her and left the classroom.
I walked impatiently and angrily to the principals office.
As I walked inside I saw Mr. Hatake signing some papers.
"Class hasn't even started and your already here. That's a record don't you think Sakura?" I heard his lazy voice. I turned to him and smiled. He was actually one of the only adults I actually respected and looked up to.
"Yeah, I kinda got into a verbal fight with this bitch and things kinda got outa hand." I told him.
He just shook his head and took the paper from me hands.
"Let's not hope this happens twice. Now wait here for about 15 minutes and then get back to class."
I smiled at him again and nodded. "Yes!"
He knew me…like a lot. He knew what had happened in the past and he understood why I was the way I was.
I shook myself and put those memories away, just like I had for 6 years.
I waited in the boring office for about an hour and then I walked back to Kurenai's class. I was eager to see Uchiha. I knew I had defiantly made an impression on him today.
When I arrived at the classroom I sat quietly back on my desk.
"Nice of you to join us Ms. Haruno. You have about 3 minutes to learn about a lesson that took 45 minutes to teach." said Kurenai as she sat on her desk. A few people turned to me.
"Well it's a good thing I'm a fast learner." I said with a smile.
"Fast learner, but you don't learn the material accordingly. Knowing your average is a 71 in this class." she said.
Ok was she trying to piss me off and embarrass me in class?
Obviously -.-
"At least I'm passing." I said to her. The bell then rang for lunch.
"Well you might be passing now, but we still have a long way fo-"
"For me to get a 90 average, now I'd love to stay and chat, but I have a performance to make during lunch so see ya." I said as I grabbed my sling bag and left.
I walked quickly through the halls, but I felt a hand stop me. I turned to a pair of blue eyes.
"Hey Naruto, I'd love to stay and chat, but I'm in a hurry so see ya." I said as I tried to pull away.
"You actually did it." he said.
I looked at him questioningly.
"Huh?"
"I told you yesterday you didn't stand a chance with the way you dressed and now you completely changed your look. I cant believe Sasuke means this much to you."
As I looked at him I couldn't but feel but feel the hurt in him. I felt so bad and horrible…I couldn't put it into words.
It's called Guilt dumb-ass -.-
Shut it.
This feeling was almost unbearable.
"You…you got it all wrong." I told him with a small smile, hoping I could make him feel better. I put my hand on his cheek. "I'm singing in a band today, so I wanted to look the part, that's all. This has nothing to do with Uchiha trust me." I told him.
His expression was soft, but calculating, as if he were trying to figure out if I was lying or telling the truth.
"Look, Naruto I really am in a hurry, I'll talk to you later 'kay. I hope you see my performance during lunch." I told him as I kissed him in the cheek and hurried off to the cafeteria.
When I got there I went to the stage that was in the cafeteria and saw Kabuto setting up the equipment. I walked quickly to where Kabuto was and smiled at him when he saw me.
"Nice." he complimented as he looked me over.
"Had some fashion tips from the best." I said as I looked him over. He was wearing a tight Atreyu shirt and black skinny jeans. He had a black-with white stripes- vest and black converse.
He smiled.
"Drums are set.." I heard a voice call. I turned to see Gaara walking over to us. I had never really spoken to the guy, but I knew he liked to keep to himself, I had him in a class in middle school, and he tended to be the silent type.
"So your Sakura?" he asked as he looked at me.
I smiled and nodded. He was…very intimidating.
"Guitar and bass are set." I heard another voice call. Now I knew this guy. He was that Hinata girls cousin or something like that. Again, he also had no pupils, so I had no idea how he could see…I might ask them one day. His name was Neji if I wasn't mistaken. Yeah, all these guys had scary personalities.
"Oh, so you're the one singing today? You better not make us look bad." he said with a smile. He was obviously playing joke, but I knew behind that he was dead serious.
Scary and creep.
"So we're all set then? Let's begin. You ready Sakura?" asked Kabuto as he put on his black bass guitar.
I turned as Garra went back to the drums and Neji grab a black guitar with a dragon on it.
I nodded.
"Alright." he said as he grabbed the mic.
I walked and stood on the center of the first mic.
"Ok everyone we're gonna play a few songs so please listen. The first song will be sung by Sakura Haruno."
At the sound of the name I saw many faces turn and stare at me wide-eyed. Guess they hadn't noticed me.
I smiled and grabbed the mic. I looked around and saw many familiar faces staring at me, but most importantly, I saw Uchiha staring at me from one of the tables at the back.
"Alright. Lets begin." I said.
The bass began to play and I began to sing.
Let me hear you say hey hey hey
AlrightNow let me hear you say hey hey ho
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door
even though I told him yesterday and the day before
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the tab
And I have to pull my money out and that looks bad
Where are the hopes, where are the dreamsMy Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see
[Chorus:]That you're not not not gonna get any better
You won't won't won't you won't get rid of me never [when I said this line I turned to Uchiha, who was staring at me with an almost stoic expression. Almost.]
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like meWe're not the same
And yeah yeah yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Alright, alrightYeahI hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why a certain time of month I don't wanna hold his hand
I hate it when they go out, and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex girlfriends
I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see
[Chorus]
Give me an S (always sweet as can be)
Give me an A (adorable, I am)
K (Kissable as can be)
U (Unique, hell yeah!)
Give me an R (rebel I can be)
Give me an A ( awesome I am!)
One, two, three, four
Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see
[Chorus]
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
[Note: I do not own this song! (Best Damn Thing: Avril Lavigne) P.S. sry for the horribleness on the 'give me an _' part lolz xD]
When the music stopped I jumped up and smiled.
Lots of people clapped and whistled. I turned to see Uchiha, but he was already leaving the cafeteria and going outside. Fuck.
"Sakura!" I heard Ino call. I looked down and spotted Ino and Temari staring at me in awe right near the stage. I crouched down to be able to hear them.
"I didn't know you could sing! That was amazing!" squealed Ino.
I smiled. "Thanks."
"Are you gonna sing another song?" asked Temari.
"Uhhh…" I turned to Kabuto who was staring at me and smiled.
"The next song had a girl part in it. You wanna sing that part?" he asked.
"Hell yeah!" I said. "Well talk to you later guys." I said to Ino and Temari as I stood up and walked to where I was standing previously.
"Ok everyone hope you like this one." said Kabuto.
The drums and guitar started and Kabuto began to sing.
(They sing another song, but I was too lazy to write down the lyrics. Sorry)
When the song finished, like before, people clapped cheered. I smiled.
"Ok so how about we take a break?" asked Kabuto.
I turned to him and immediately found an excuse.
"Yeah, I'm actually kinda beat. I'm gonna go buy a water ok, see you guys later." I told them as I stepped out of the stage. As walked towards the exit, people crowded me and began to talk to me as if I was a star or something, which was a bit annoying since I was in a hurry to leave.
…
Annoying? =.=
Since when do I find limelight annoying?
Holy shit, Uchiha is starting to have an effect on me.
Dumb-ass
I excused myself and walked outside. A few people were outside sitting in benches or just walking around. I looked around to spot Uchiha, and when I did I walked over to where he was. He was sitting on top of a table with his headphones on. As I was a few feet away from him I stopped myself.
What was I going to tell him? Aww fuck.
-.- dumb-ass
I guess he sensed me near, because then he turned to me. I froze for a bit and walked closer until I was directly in front of him.
"What?" he asked.
I had never been at a lost for words before…
Say something! You look like an idiot!…you dumb-ass!
Right…I regained my composure a bit.
"Did you like the show?" I asked stupidly.
What the fuck! Seriously! Dumb-ass!
"Not as bad as I thought it would be." he said.
I smiled.
"But the singer ruined it." he then added. My smiled turned grim and I was instantly angry. He had only heard the song that I had sung. I ignored the comment and then really got a hold of my attitude.
"You know you should thank me for defending you in class today." I stated.
"You defended me?"
"Hell yeah! Kurenai attacked your style remember? That Halloween comment." I said while putting a hand on my hip.
"She didn't direct the words toward me, so I don't care."
"But she said it as a whole! The whole punk-goth kids and stuff."
"Even if she directed it towards me, that hasn't been the worst thing I've been told." He said it with an edge and I immediately knew what he was talking about. He was referring to what happed yesterday in class. The whole 'he was homo thing'.
"Yeah, well you started it!" I exclaimed.
Real mature -.-
Then I thought of something. "You really aren't a homo right?"
He stayed quiet for a moment.
"Your wasting my time." he then said as he stood up.
Oh, so he was just gonna leave me just like that! Ugh! This guy…!
"I'm not finished talking!" I said angrily.
I grabbed his shirt with both hands and pushed him back on the table so he would sit back down, but he was caught of guard and fell backwards on the table and I was over him.
We stared into each others eyes and didn't move. His expression was more surprised than anything. I didn't speak, because I was so aware of our proximity I could feel myself growing red.
His expression then turned to one of annoyance and anger. He pushed me off him and stood up.
"Don't ever touch me." he said. "And don't ever dress like that." he said as he looked me over, his eyes filled with bitterness. "You look like an stupid poser." he finished.
I just stared at him.
"I'm not into you, and I never will. So just…let it go." he said as he walked away.
I was sure he was about to say 'fuck off' but something held him back, I could see that much.
I stared after him. So many feeling had gone through me in those few minutes…awkward, shy, happy, love, startled, anger, hate, and sadness.
I had never felt…so much, and especially not for one guy.
'I don't know but I think I may be falling for you dropping so quickly'
Now's not the moment to quote stupid songs! You ruined the moment!
I turned around and began to walk back to the cafeteria.
The rest of the day had gone by in a breeze and I just wanted it to end. When I got home I just turned up the volume and drowned in the music as I sat on my bed. I lay down and closed my eyes. I really hated this feeling.
The next day during school had gone both annoying and boring. People kept on coming up to me and asking me stupid questions like:
"Why did you dress like that?" ~Non of your fucken business
"Have you really gone emo?" ~Do you see scars on my wrist bitch?
"Are you gonna dress like that from now on?" ~Uhh, who cares?
"Are you in a band?" ~Stupid!
And my all time favorite question:
"Are you planning to join choir?" ~Like hell I am! Choir is soooo not my style, it's lame and bad for my image. Although the 'me singing in a band' made me popular among the punks now which wasn't so bad.
In Geography Uchiha didn't even look at me, in fact he did everything possible for me to stay away from him, but at some moments I could swear he was looking at me…he wasn't making it obvious, but I was sure he was looking at me. His eyes weren't filled with hate or anger, but with curiosity.
When school was finally over I was glad because it was over, this had really been the worst day ever. I really needed a guy to help me feel better, especially after what Uchiha did yesterday.
When I got to the parking lot I saw a familiar face that could always made my day and I was so glad to see him. I ran to him and kissed him eagerly.
