I sit quietly at a desk by the big windows in home room, waiting for Hinata or Sasuke to enter. I glace up at the clock, 7:20, they have ten minutes to get here. I watch as a dark haired woman, about twenty four years old, walks into the classroom and goes to the teacher's desk. She must be our homeroom teacher. She writes her name on the chalkboard.
Miss. Mitarashi
She seems nice enough by her appearance but I don't have any knowledge on her. 7:25 and finally I see Hinata hurry into the room, red in the face. I motion for her to come sit in front of me with a relieved smile.
"It looks like you had to hurry." I observe with a smile, leaning forward in my seat.
Hinata nods, her breath coming in heaves. "Neji was supposed to..." she takes a gulp of air, "walk with me. So I waited." She explains, her voice still soft, even though she is trying to catch her breath.
I giggle. Neji is Hinata's older cousin. He's a bit over protective, cocky, and athletic but I have yet to have any problem with him, he seems like a genuinely nice guy. "Did he make you guys run?" I ask leaning back in my seat.
Hinata shakes her head. "He forgot. But really it's okay. Things happen like this all the time."
I shrug not surprised by Hinata shrugging off Neji's forgetfulness and look around the room yet again. I still don't see Naruto which is odd considering his father works at the academy so he couldn't have possibly been late. Where are those two!
Hinata follows my gaze. "Where is Sasuke?" She asks, her breath still coming heavily.
I shrug. "Beats me. I'm worried something may have happened to the two of them." I confess now fidgeting with my fingers. "You know how Naruto is, trouble seems to find him."
Of course right before the bell sounds Sasuke enters the classroom followed by Naruto, who not to my astonishment jumps through the door and strikes a dismount pose. "Made it!" He calls out causing the class to ripple with laughter. Leave it to Naruto, the class clown.
You would think that after almost a year of being with Sasuke that my stomach wouldn't knot and my heart wouldn't skip when his eyes catch mine, but they still happen. Every time. I smile warmly at him as he makes his way towards the window, kissing my forehead before seating himself behind me.
"Hey Sakura!" Naruto grins that goofy smile of his at me. He sure is weird but his heart is always in the right place. I kind of admire him for sticking to his beliefs so devotedly.
I smile back at him. "Good morning Naruto." I say, watching Hinata blush as he takes a seat next to me.
Naruto rests his elbow on the desk and places his chin in the palm of his hand. "So what do you have next?" He asks from behind his fingers as Miss. Mitarashi takes attendance.
I pull my class schedule out of my pocket and glance at it. "Algebra one." I reply knowing full well that there is no way Naruto would have the same class.
"Aw damn, I have pre-algebra like 3rd or something like that." He groans, leaning into the isle to sneak a peek at the rest of my classes. "Hey!" He exclaims and points to my schedule. "We have Lit and P.E. together." He grins at me.
I laugh and smile at him. "Nice." Secretly I'm glad that at least three out of my seven classes are with someone I know.
Miss. Mitarashi finishes attendance and then gives a brief rundown of how the bell system works. We have ten minutes to get from class to class and we always have homeroom in the morning, before lunch, and then again after lunch.
I turn around in my seat and face Sasuke. "What classes do you have?" I ask him cheerfully.
He pulls a folded up piece of paper out of his breast pocket and unfolds it, lying it flat on his desk before spinning it so that I can read. The only thing that we have together is Physical Science, and I feel myself whimper inside. It's not that bad, be strong Sakura!
I put on my best fake smile. "Guess we only have one together." I say quietly.
His onyx eyes boar into me, his stare so intense I almost stop breathing. "Better than nothing I suppose." He says with a faint smile.
I nod and return his smile. His smile is rare, but always takes my breath away, kind of like those rare sunsets where the sun catches the clouds just right and an explosion of color appears. I turn back to Hinata who is looking over my schedule. "We have Algebra, Latin, and Dance together." She smiles at me.
I smile back and nod. "So that leaves World History." I ponder looking at my schedule, like it will reveal to me who will be in there.
"Hinata I didn't know you could dance." Naruto says, his voice full of wonder as he stares at Hinata with wide eyes.
I chuckle as Hinata goes pink in the cheeks. "I...uh...have been for....a-a while now." She squeaks in response. It's obvious to everyone but Naruto that she likes him, but I know that she more than likes him, she loves him.
Naruto grins his classic cheesy grin causing Hinata to go even pinker. "So cool!" He exclaims.
"Dude, Namikaze could you BE any louder?" A male voice says from the other side of the room. No one from our junior high disliked Naruto, so I know it has to be someone from one of the other junior high.
Naruto looks over and then shoots to his feet. "What the hell are YOU doing here?!" He points accusingly at a boy with messy brown hair.
The brown hair boy stands and slams his hands down on his desk. "I could ask you the same question Namikaze." He growls glaring at him.
I recognize him from junior high soccer games, he's Naruto's 'enemy' for lack of a better term. Truth is Naruto hates that the guy is better than him. I roll my eyes at the ridiculous rivalry the two have going on as the bell chimes. Thank God for small miracles.
I turn to Sasuke and smile. "So I'll see you at homeroom?" I ask cheerfully.
Sasuke nods and gently kisses me on my forehead, sending a shiver through my body. "I'll see you then." He says before turning and leaving the room.
I turn to Hinata. "Let's get going to class." I say, picking up my shoulder bag and leading the way out of the classroom.
