High School Hell Ch.7

Chapter Seven

Right. Like I told you in the last chapter, this is a week after they started doing the project.

Sakura's P.O.V

'I hate working with Sasuke Uchiha.' I announce to my friends, during the ten minute break we get between classes.
'Congratulations. I love working with Temari.' Ino replies. She's standing at the locker, redoing her lip gloss.
I ignore her and turn to Tenten.
'Shinobi suck neh?'
'Hell yeah.' Tenten says. 'Working with Neji is like, shit.'
'He sits in front of the TV and leaves her to write the report.' Hinata adds.
'Yeah. I'm going to flunk this.'
'Working with Sasuke is no less. He does work, but he's so damn BOSSY!'
'I'm flattered.' Comes a dry sarcastic voice from behind.
I turn around.
'What do you want?'
'My pen. You stole it.'
'Excuse me?'
'Yeah. You took it from me yesterday for writing the report because yours was out of ink and never gave it back.'
'I did give it back!'
'No, you didn't.'
'I did!' I take out my pouch and shove it in his face. 'Go ahead! Look inside!'
He takes it from me and opens it.
He takes out a black pen with the small Uchiha symbol engraved on the cap.
'Ah.' He says.
Shit. My cheeks are burning with embarrassment.
I DID give it back! I know I did! I finished writing, handed the pen to him and started packing up.
Oh wait, I had to write another paragraph at the end, so I took the pen again and…
Oh.
'It was an accident.' I mumble.
'Hah! I knew the Kunoichi were thieves! I suppose you stole my miso ramen too!' Naruto says, coming up behind Sasuke.
'I did not steal it! I forgot to give it back! If I had stolen it, why would I give him my pouch to check?' I shout at the Naruto who is alarmed at my sudden outburst.
By now, there's a crowd gathered around us.
'Sasuke-kun! Did she steal your pen? My gosh, I told you she was a bitch!'
'What was that Karin?' I glare at the redhead. My fingers are clenched into a fist.
I suppose she senses the dangerous aura around me and she backs away into the crowd.
'Anyway. I did not steal your pen. I merely forgot to give it back.'
'Sure sure.' Naruto says.
'You keep your mouth shut ramen-boy.'
He glares at me.
He comes in front of Sasuke and opens his mouth to say something.
But I don't let him.
I take the opportunity and punch him hard. Right in the middle of his stomach where it hurts the most.
'OWWWWWW YOU BITCH!!'
I smile to myself and look at where he's lying on the floor, doubled over in pain.
'Don't you mess with me you piece of shit.'
There's a sigh from Sasuke and the crowd is silent.
'Naruto get up.' He says.
Naruto does so, muttering swearwords under his breath which are obviously directed towards me.
'Haruno, I came to get my pen, not pick a fight.' Sasuke throws my pouch back at me and leaves, Naruto following him, still cussing.
Maybe I did go a little overboard.
But I hadn't punched anyone in a week. It felt good XD
I slam my open locker shut and turn around.
The crowd is still there.
'What are YOU staring at?' I say dangerously.
The people slowly move away.
Good.
They're scared of me.
I'm Queen of the wor-
Owww.
Shit I just walked  into an open door.
Thank god there's no one in the corri-
'You really are clumsy.'
I scream out loud.
REALLY loud.
'Don't do that again you…'
Sasuke looks a little startled.
Well I would too if someone just screamed in my face.
'What are you doing here anyway?' I ask him, trying to sound calm.
Inside, I am not calm.
I almost had a heartattack.
Yeesh.
Stupid Sauce-boy.


Sasuke's p.O.V

'I need to go to math.' I point at the door behind her, against which she is collapsed.
Stupid idiot.
I'm not some kind of alien, there's no need to be scared of me…
'Are you going to move or do I have to push you away?' I ask.
'Well, you certainly are rude.'
'Thanks. Means a lot to me.'
She scowls.
'Well, you certainly have a weird perception of compliments and insults.' She says moving away and turning the knob of the door.
There's no one in class yet.
I didn't expect there to be anyway, there's still five minutes left for class to start.
She sits down at the very back, against the wall on the right
I sit down at the other end, on the left.
She takes out her cell phone and plugs her earphones in.
I take out my math book and revise for the quiz.
If she doesn't remember about the quiz, I'm not reminding her.
She can fail for all I care.



Later that day (around 5.00 pm, they are in the woods.)

'You creep why didn't you remind me of the quiz??' She shouts at me.
'I assumed you remembered.'
'Well there was no harm in asking was there?'
'I suppose not.'
'I'm going to FAIL.'
'Good.'
She punches my arm, hard.
Shit she's strong.
I quicken my pace and go on ahead of her.
'Hey listen!' She runs up and walks beside me. 'I was thinking, how about an alliance?'
'Alliance?'
'Yeah.'
'You know my group would never ever agree to that.'
'Yeah and neither would mine. I'm saying between us. You know…like, me and you. Until this thing is over.'
Hmmm.
I guess maybe it would be better to not fight over everything if we're going to be working together.
'Okay.' I say, 'But this alliance remains valid only outside school and only until we submit the project.'
'Done.'
We walk in silence for a while. When we're almost at the end of the bridge, I see the rabbits and I stop, putting out my hand so she stops too.
I crouch down behind the pole at the end of the bridge, trying to decide when and how to come out.
Shit…what the hell is she doing?
She's resting her head on top of mine.

Sakura's P.O.V

Shit.
I can't believe myself.
What am I doing???
And I did it without thinking so if I move now, he'll know I'm embarrassed so I can't even move my head away…
F*** me!!!
It's not such a bad feeling though…
The view is actually better from behind his stupid head.
And his hair smells nice….
O________________________________________________________O
WHAT???
No I did not just say that…
I didn't.
His hair does not smell nice.
It's dirty and dandruffy and..
Oh who am I kidding?
Okay. One thought.
Just one.
And it's just hair right?
If someone's hair is nice, it's nice.
I can't change that fact.
Damn.
I need some water.
I get up slowly. My cheeks are already feeling a little red-ish.
Oh look.
He's flushed too. Good. I'm not the only one.
The camera's been recording everything so it's not too long before we go back.
Thank God.
I need some of my Hate-Shinobi treatment.
God help me.

See? Told you the SasuSaku-ness would start soon
SPOILER: Next chapter will be Sasuke's accidental thought about Sakura XD
I wanted to do a doujin on this but I don't know how to draw a few characters so no way. I don't want to make a fool of myself
If you want to do it, note me!
