Please Read and Review, I love to hear what you guys think and I what you think I need to improve on.
Who do you think you are?
…
Sakura's P.O.V.:
…..
"Who are you?" The godly looking boy repeated when Sakura just stood there, mouth agape. She could already feel the heat spreading to her cheeks as she realized how stupid she must have looked/
"Um, I'm Haruno Sakura. I just transferred here." She stated calmly, despite the chaos going on within her.
'Come on,' she told herself firmly. 'You're Sakura, the same Sakura that guys have fought over daily. Why should you lose your cool to this gorgeous, sexy, total –' She immediately caught herself and shook her head before glancing up at the boy before her –
Who was looking at her with a hint of annoyance.
"What?" she sneered at his expression, showing him that he wasn't the only one who felt bothered. She felt his gaze intensify then an angry aura flared within the room.
"It was you." He gritted his teeth as she gave him an are-you-crazy look.
"What the hell are you talking about?" she said rolling her eyes at his confusingly short responses.
'I mean, seriously. Who the hell does this guy think he is?' Sakura snorted to herself. 'And, more importantly, where the hell is my class?'
…
Sasuke's P.O.V.:
…..
Sasuke was struggling to keep his face emotionless and not give this … girl… the satisfaction of making him lose his cool.
'She's so annoying!' he thought, frustrated by her nonchalant attitude. 'She doesn't even remember when she practically ran me over this morning!
"You," he said coldly. "Are the one who knocked me over this morning." Sasuke heard a gasp and glanced behind him- he had forgotten Ino was there- where Ino still sat on the edge of the large Mahogany desk.
"You're the little bitch who pushed my Sasuke-kun?" Ino fumed at the other girl, who only raised a thin, pink eyebrow at Sasuke.
"That's your back-up?" She asked with sarcastic smirk. "Well," she continued, pausing to toss some of her long cotton candy-colored hair over her shoulder. "I don't know who you think you are, but it's gonna take more than her-" she shot a patronizing grin at Ino, "- And you, to scare me."
'Did she just- no fucking way!' Sasuke stared at her with a semi-shocked expression. No one talked to him that way. No one.
A seething Ino stood from the desk and made a move as to get in front of him and he saw the pinkette roll her eyes at the melodramatic stance.
"Shut up you bitch!" the blond girl screeched, shaking her head so vigorously that her high ponytail bumped Sasuke's chin. "Don't ever mess with me-"
She was abruptly interrupted by Sakura's light scoff.
'Does this girl have a death wish?' he thought in confusion. Most of the other girls in the school would have been out of the room the second they realized who they had interrupted- but not this girl. Not only had she stayed, but she was also teasing them.
"Oh, please," Sakura said sneering at Ino. "Like you could do anything to me. I suggest you back off, Blondie, and let the grown-ups talk."
Sasuke chuckled inwardly at the obvious jab. Ino did look younger and less … developed, compared to the new girl. He wondered if that would be a problem. What if people started thinking this fiery girl was better than his.
Sasuke Uchiha came second to no one.
Without a single word to either girl, he exited the classroom and began roaming the halls- this was his free period, he would damn sure do as he pleased and right now he wanted peace and quiet.
….
Sakura's P.O.V.:
….
What the hell was wrong with that guy? One minute he was here, glaring at her as if she had kicked his puppy or something, then the next second he was gone.
"Wow," she muttered sarcastically. "That wasn't dramatic at all."
The blond girl before her snapped her gaze away from the door and shot her a nasty look before running out after him.
'He's got her wrapped around his finger.' She thought as she shook her head. Everyone knew that lap-dogs only lasted for so long when dealing with pretty boys.
Sakura glanced around the room. It was 30 minutes after her class was supposed to begin and she was still the only one there- even the teacher was missing.
'What the hell is with this school?' she wondered as she made her way to the office. As she neared the principal's office, she heard shouting followed by a loud *BANG*
The door opened seconds later and a blond boy exited, gripping his head and wincing. As soon as he saw Sakura, though, he perked up.
"Hey!" he practically shouted with a smile that lit up his eyes. "I remember you!"
Sakura cocked her head to the side as if to say 'You do?'
The boy laughed loudly before finally saying, "You knocked the teme down this morning! That was hilarious!" He began laughing again and Sakura found herself doing the same; his jubilant attitude was contagious.
"I'm Sakura Haruno, I just transferred here today."
The blond nodded with a grin. "Nice to meet you Sakura, I'm Naruto Uzumaki."
She stood there, shell-shocked, and stared at him.
'This is Hinata's crush?' She screamed mentally.
Caught up in the moment, Sakura jumped up and hugged him as she squealed loudly and continuously said "Kami, you guys would look so perfect together! I can't believe this! Kami!"
(A/N: Kami means God in Japanese)
Naruto just stood there- looking surprised and a little confused- but hugged her back anyways.
"Um, Sakura?" he asked as he set her down after a few more moments of her excited screams. "What, exactly, are you screaming about?"
She froze, trying to recall if she mentioned Hinata's name.
"Uh- nothing, Naruto! I was just thinking of a friend of mine who would look absolutely perfect as your girlfriend." She rushed through with a small smile at his blushing face.
"No offense, Sakura," he said as he rubbed at the back of his head sheepishly. "I kind of already have someone I want to date…"
Sakura's face immediately fell.
'Poor Hinata,' she thought sadly. 'They would have made a really cute couple.' Even after only knowing Hinata for a few hours, Sakura knew she wasn't the type of girl to try to steal someone's boyfriend; hopefully Naruto would realize that this girl he liked wasn't the right one for him.
"…Sakura?" his worried voice was enough to snap her out of her reverie. "You okay?"
She nodded, grin back on her face. "Actually, I gotta talk to the principal. My class never showed up- that, or I had the wrong room."
She saw Naruto reach around and touch a spot on his head at the mention of the angry woman.
"Um, I'm sure I can help you out." He said as he winced from the contact with his bruise. "She's kinda in a bad mood… Something about one of her staff members not being able to come in today."
'Maybe that's my teacher!'
"Yeah, I think that's my guy." She muttered before turning back to him. "So, what do I do?"
The two of them sat there for a second, Naruto thinking of a solution while Sakura watched him with an amused smile. Honestly, this kid was too funny.
"I know!" he shouted so suddenly that she jumped. "You can come hang with us and have a free period!" He stood there, looking at her for an answer, his eyes wider than his smile.
Sakura shrugged. "Why not," She was promptly dragged from the office, down the hall, and up a flight of stairs. Naruto released her hand as they approached a small group that was gathered in the 2nd floor hallway.
"Hey guys!" Naruto shouted across the hall to his awaiting friends. "Sorry I'm late!" Everyone either replied back or nodded in acknowledgment towards the loud boy before turning their attention to her.
"Who's this, Naruto?" a girl with four dirty-blond, spiky ponytails and eyes that were such a dark shade of blur that Sakura thought they were black.
Naruto put his arm over Sakura's shoulders and beamed. "This is Sakura Haruno, she's new here." Sakura gave them a warm smile. "Sakura, this is Temari no Sabaku," he pointed to the girl who had asked who she was. "Shikamaru Nara," a boy with a spiky, black ponytail lazily picked his head up from where it rested in his folded arms. "This is R-"
Suddenly, one boy with a very shiny, bowl-cut hairstyle and thick black eyebrows jumped in front of Sakura and kneeled. "Hello, my beautiful flower! I am Rock Lee, and may I say that your beauty is simply breathtaking!"
She just stood there, blushing madly as he brought the back of her hand to his lips and held them there for five awkward seconds before striking the Mr. America pose.
Sakura could hear giggling and looked around to see Naruto trying to cover his laughter with a cough, Temari giggling, Shikamaru shaking his head and –wait!
That guy from earlier was there! The asshole that she walked in on, and he was smirking!
"Okay, Bushy Brows," Naruto said as he pat Lee's shoulder. "So… I guess that's everyone- oh, wait!" He suddenly motioned to the striking, dark haired guy. "You've already met Sasuke Uchiha."
'No wonder he's such an ass,' Sakura mused. 'I guess being part of a prestigious clan is bound to affect someone. But Hinata is too, and she's not nearly as stuck-up as this guy-'
"So what's with the hair?" Temari asked as Sakura and Naruto sat on one of the benches beside the group.
Sakura raised an eyebrow, "What about it?"
Naruto peered at it and, for the first time, noticed its unusual color. "Sakura, your hair is PINK!" he shouted
"No shit, dobe."
Everyone turned to Sasuke with surprised looks before turning to look back at Sakura.
"You got Sasuke to talk!" Temari said with a shocked expression on her face. "The most I've ever gotten out of him is a grunt."
"That's because you're annoying." The ass himself muttered.
Sakura just smiled as, just like that, everyone relaxed and began conversing. She found herself observing them as Naruto and Lee started arguing, Temari and Shikamaru spoke softly- though he still looked bored-, and Sasuke just sat there.
'He must not talk much.' She assumed as she continued to take in his profile; his sculpted cheekbones and messily stylish hair. His heavily lashed eyes and sinful mouth.
Sakura stopped her scrutinizing gaze as she realized what she'd just thought.
'Where did that come from?'
…
Sasuke's P.O.V.:
….
He could feel her watching him. Why did she have to be so blatantly obvious? Couldn't she just watch him from the corner of her eye or think of him in the secret confines of her home, like the rest of his fan girls?
Deciding to ignore the pink haired girl that- since Naruto had moved from his spot between them- sat beside him, Sasuke pulled out his phone instead.
It chimed as he pressed the 'notifications' button, revealing 12 new messages from Ino.
'Kami, she's so annoying.' He thought as he realized that half of them were her asking him if he needed a 'Stress Reliever'. That was her way of offering a quickie.
'It's really not so fun when you have to rush' he mused as he deleted al of them without reading the other half.
"Wow, that's a lot of messages."
Sasuke snapped his phone shut and glared at her.
"What?" she asked unaffected by his deadly glare. "You really should learn how to express yourself. I can't tell if you're angry or turned on."
He felt his cheeks get warm and quickly turned his head away and scoffed. "Hasn't anyone ever told you that it's rude to read personal things without the owner's consent?"
Just before the bell rung, he heard her mutter 'Whatever' and turned to see her walking away with Temari.
"Teme, are you checking Sakura out?" Naruto screamed, and Sasuke swore he saw Sakura stiffen from down the hall.
"Dobe!" he grit his teeth as he knocked Naruto over the head.
