Raise your Voice

Chapter 2

It was a tough day for Sakura whom convinced by Ino to join the competition which is merely a big problem to her.

'I can do this!' Sakura thought who is now sweating and standing in front of a bulletin board reading this 'Big announcement' for all high school students for a music competition.

"Sak, get your butt in here, you have to sign up here!" shouted Ino as Sakura hushed her looking terribly embarrassed while the other people just murmuring about her joining the competition.

"You mean the geek? she's joining the competition? You've got to be kidding me!" a girl whose standing at the back of Sakura grinning like stupid approached her. "do you even have a face to show up your ass on stage? You're just gonna ruin your dignity!". Karin laughed out. 'The nerve of this girl!' Sakura thought.

Her name was Karin, daughter of one of the Board of Trustees. One of the so called popular in school. She has long red hair, pretty, a curvaceous body with an almost showed up boobs( I mean cleavage). She was wearing a tight red sleeveless (Kamiseta), a micro skirt and red heels, looking like a slut rather a student.

"What's the big idea Karin? Cut her some slack, you don't even know what her capable of!" Ino retorted as she came to Sakura by her side. " Oh really, the other freak goddess has joined!, what kind of guts do you have to show yourself here to sign up!" Karin laughed again with her boobs bouncing up and down.

On Sakura's thought, she was imagining things like kickin' her pretty face and throwing punches right on her boobs like a punching bag. Ha, as if she can do it. Doing this, one day, she'll be kicked out of school.

A sudden 'ooohhs' and screaming of girls was heard. A spiked haired 'chicken butt' guy came towards them. It was the Uchiha , he smirked at Sakura looking flushed not because of his presence in front of her but her annoyance. "Sasuke-kun!" Karin screamed as grabbing Sasuke's arm getting close to him. Sasuke and Karin had been together since freshmen not because Sasuke wanted to but because of their parents and as time goes by, Karin's presence makes Sasuke throw up in disgust.

"So Sasuke-kun, are you going to join the competition?" asked Karin who is still clinging to Sasuke's arm. "Hn, it's none of your business" Sasuke said removing the tight grip of Karin in his arm but failed to be noticed by her.

"I've heard that you are going to join the competition Haruno, what is it that you're going to do on stage?" said Sasuke. ' Stupid Sasuke's smirking face, I'm gonna rip it off!' Sakura's inner self is starting to blow on her brain.

"I….ano…ah…" Sakura was stuttering looking onto the ground. The reason that Sakura doesn't like him is that, he always smirks whenever he sees her like an insult because of her appearance. 'who does he think he is?, the president of All-hail-handsome-men Club?' Sakura thought.

Flashback

SAKURA' s POV

I was walking around the campus and had no idea where in the heck is she going because the place is too big. She was an hour early so decided to walk around without even knowing where to go. She already had seen her assigned room so it's better to walk around rather than stuck herself in here with eyes that are boring holes in her coz she's another geek that'll ruin the image of the school.

She brought her guitar and started walking away. Upon turning into the corner she bumped onto someone and fell into her butt. "Ow!, what the….Semimasen!" she's the one who fell to the ground and she's the one who apologized. She looked up at him and finally realized her butt hurts "Damn" she didn't mean it to say that aloud and continued rubbing her butt "Watch where you're going dumbass" a guy with a spiked raven hair who she bumped said. "I said I was sorry already stup….." she said as she looked back up again to his dark eyes, 'he's so handsome' her inner self said so she stopped from retorting because she was the one who fell already. So for the sake of her justice she asked him "You…you were supposed to apologize too for also bumping into me" Sakura said standing up and grabbing her guitar, "Hn, Why should I apologize to you, you're just a freak" Sasuke said in a passive tone and with that he turned to the side and walk away. "Argh! What a bastard!" Sakura screamed at herself.

Instead of getting herself mad the whole day with that bastard, she finally found a spot to play her guitar. It was a large garden far from their school building, it was beautiful. A fountain about 20 feet with water flowing downward, birds chirping from sakura trees and its blossoms were being carried by the wind. It was beautiful scenery with no other people that would bother to be there due to their busy lives. It was calming so she decided to sat on the grass and started playing her guitar

Fifteen (by Taylor Swift)

You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors

It's the morning of your very first day

And you say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while

Try and stay out of everybody's way

It's your freshman year and you're gonna be here

For the next four years in this town

Hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say

"You know, I haven't seen you around before"

'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you

You're gonna believe them

And when you're fifteen feeling like there's nothing to figure out

Well, count to ten, take it in

This is life before you know who you're gonna be

Fifteen

You sit in class next to a redhead named Abigail

And soon enough you're best friends

Laughing at the other girls who think they're so cool

We'll be outta here as soon as we can

And then you're on your very first date and he's got a car

And you're feeling like flying

And you're momma's waiting up and you're thinking he's the one

And you're dancing 'round your room when the night ends

[- From . -]

When the night ends

'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you

You're gonna believe them

When you're fifteen and your first kiss

Makes your head spin 'round

But in your life you'll do things greater than

Dating the boy on the football team

But I didn't know it at fifteen

When all you wanted was to be wanted

Wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now

Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday

But I realized some bigger dreams of mine

And Abigail gave everything she had to a boy

Who changed his mind and we both cried

'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you

You're gonna believe them

And when you're fifteen, don't forget to look before you fall

I've found time can heal most anything

And you just might find who you're supposed to be

I didn't know who I was supposed to be at fifteen

Your very first day

Take a deep breath girl

Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors

After her playing and singing, she decided to create a note from her guitar and started to hum. I heard a rustling sound from her back. 'Probably due to wind' she thought.

SASUKE's POV

I was walking back to the school building and wait for that bitch to come. 'Tsk, why do my parents have to choose her as my future wife, she looks like a slut, and they could've given her to Itachi, there are still lots of girls around here, why her?' he thought to himself. I decided to stay on the garden first, it was so calming, this could be my secret place. Upon turning around I suddenly bumped into someone…..pink.

"Ow!, what the….Semimasen" she shrieked. With her guitar she fell. I was going to apologize first but why did she suddenly said she was sorry. I was frozen as she looked up to me, there is something behind those eye glasses. Those eyes…"Damn" she said,"Watch where you're going dumbass" I said to her.

"I said I was sorry stup…"She stopped and look at me straight to the eyes, I don't know why. She stood up and asked me "You…you were supposed to apologize too for also bumping into me". Hn, Uchihas never apologizes. "Hn, Why should I apologize to you, you're just a freak" I said to her, but I didn't mean it, she was the one who started it and with that I walked away to avoid any arguments for the first day of class.

I couldn't help but wonder about those eyes. I turned around and look back and she's gone, it's still early to go back to class, maybe I'll just follow her.

I headed towards her direction earlier before I bumped her, 'probably she's headed to that garden' he thought. He was right, there she was sitting on the grass and playing guitar 'wait…' he told himself.

(Sakura sings Fifteen)

'…I…I never thought this girl has such a good voice' Sasuke on deep thought forgetting that he almost tripped on the stone he stepped in. (Rustling sounds) 'WTF!' he immediately ran away before Sakura catch him.

END OF FLASHBACK

Sakura was clutching Ino's arm to get away from those two. Ino already knew that Sakura doesn't like Sasuke so Ino was on the neutral level between her liking him because of his handsome face or not.

"Uh, yeah Sakura's going to join, so later…." Ino cut Sakura by grabbing her away from him.

'This is gonna be interesting' Sasuke smirked at his thought.
