Clashing Personalities
Three
It turns out that the rude girl from third hour with the even ruder comment has a name. Karin. What a pleasant name for a not-so-pleasant female. Sakura, sitting in the back of her fourth-hour class, runs over those few minutes in her mind before frowning. Karin – red haired, dark eyed, glasses, and somewhat revealing clothes. If anything, the term slut should be directed at her – not at Sakura.
After that insult, Sakura asked her to direct her comments at people who actually care. That turned out to be a bad thing to say – the stinging pain on her cheek agrees with her.
The blond, the one who asked her out after meeting her, is Naruto. He's a nice fellow, lively, and he always seems to have something to say. A good deal of it is about ramen.
It also turns out that he has this hour with her and, at the moment, he is sitting in the desk in front of her and attempting to finish the test he and the rest of the class have to take. This being her first day – she doesn't have to take it at all.
Lucky her.
With a reluctant sigh, Sakura folds her arms across her desk and waits. Someone will be finished eventually. And maybe, just maybe, she might have someone to talk to.
The only sounds in the classroom consist of pen on paper. Or pencil on paper.
The soft drill lures her eyes to a close and she relaxes.
Utterly and completely relaxes despite something within tells her she shouldn't. Not around people she doesn't know.
But she relaxes, drops her guard for a moment, and lets her mind wander. She does not know how long she stays like that but when a hand drops on her shoulder, she stiffens.
"Eh, Sakura-chan, you good?" she casts a look up at the grinning blond before nodding.
"Yeah, you caught me off guard." His grin broadens.
He sits next to her, in one of the only empty seats in the class, and grins.
Yes, she knows she shouldn't relax around people she doesn't know, but with this joyful boy and his easy grins, she can't help it.
Not at all.
Well, here is another chapter. Another short one.
I hope you enjoyed it.
