Sakura's POV 

A couple weeks passed by. Here I am sitting in class as the bell rang, signaling us for break and we all left. I looked secretly at them. As always, they were enjoying, having fun....without me. The pain stopped because I was now used to it. Used to being left alone.

We never talked to each other again. I don't know why. I don't know how but I miss the old times. The times I was with my friends. They were my family. Until I was shattered into pieces. Left behind. Forgotten. What happened to the quote "Ohana means family and family means nobody's gonna be left behind nor forgotten." from Lilo & Stitch? Guess it's just a fantasy. Makes sense since it's from a cartoon.

Wherever I look, whatever I think, it just results to them. When I see weapons, fights or sports, it reminds me of Tenten. A genius, karate, reminds me of Neji. Laziness, calculators or board games reminds me of Shikamaru. Make-up, fashion, clothes reminds me of Ino. Shyness, stuttering and blushing reminds me of Hinata. Happiness, ramen, jokes, the color orange reminds me of Naruto. Stupidness, pranks and dogs reminds me of Kiba. Darkness, hot & cold, love, pain, suffer, black, admiration reminds me of.......Sasuke...

 Taking another glance, gasping with utterly surprise I found myself mesmerized with those two tempting gaze that only belonged to the only guy that took my heart. Those piercing eyes that never failed to make my heart skip a beat. Those killer eyes that never failed to give me electric shock drizzling inside me.

Like the last time in the mall, we were locked in an eye contact. It was happening again. I acted normal and slowly turned around as we parted ways. Even though his face has a blank expression, has a pity look in his eyes. Like he felt sorry. But then again, his thoughts are blocked. Unreadable. It's hard to know, hard to get in his mind.

I made my way to the bench at the school's garden, my usual place to eat my food. I sat there, alone. With no one but me, myself and I. My past/previous friends are all with her, Ami. Again, I'm used to it. It's almost been a month since I was left alone. Almost been a month since I haven't truly smiled. Maybe friends do come and go.

After an hour, the bell rang. I walked to my locker and checked my schedule. Kaka-sensei's next. I grabbed my notebook and went inside the classroom. I was chatting with some of my wattpad friends, Shimiko, Finn and Kira. I think they're my only true friends. I felt their presence came inside the classroom. i just focused on my phone and pretended I didn't see them. When they passed by, it felt like the whole world stopped. But also felt like I was not there, invisible. That's what I feel whenever I see or pass by them. Pain and loneliness felt from the inside.

For the first time in history, Kaka-sensei didn't came late. I was still chatting with Shimiko, Finn and Kira, so quickly I hid my phone inside my bag and acted like nothing happened.

"Smooth. Real smooth, Sakura." Inner Sakura has awakened again.

"Shut up, inner." I mentally replied.

"Shut down, Sakura."

"Just shut it."

"Pffft, fine but I'll be back."

Same as always, classes were boring. Even though I have the highest grade in English class, I was still bored. Wattpad widens my knowledge I guess?

Third Person's POV

Kakashi stopped writing and faced his students. "...Since I know you guys aren't listening from all that. I'll just give you the project and submit it to me next week." The students sighed. "But. It's by partners." Some of the students gasped. Most sighed and few glared. "Do you want it to be random? Chosen? What?"

The students started making noise.

"RANDOM!!!!"

"CHOSEN!"

"BY FRIENDS!!"

"BY GROUP!!!"

"INDIVIDUAL!!!"

A sweat drop from Kakashi's forehead. "One choice only."

"RANDOM!" Naruto shouted. Some agreed and some cursed.

"Random it is. Okay let's start." He grabbed a pen and a paper and started connecting names, in a bored way.

"Yosh!" He scanned the paper and looked satisfied.

Kiba took a drink of his bottle, not caring who his partner will be.

"Kiba, your partner will be Naruto."

Kiba sputtered his drink while his cup filled with liquid dropped onto Naruto's head.

Naruto looked around him."EHHH?!" He stood up and looked at his back. "OI KIBA! WHY DID YOU DO THAT?? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, BAKA?!"

"WHY HIM?!" Kiba pointed at the dampen Naruto while looking to Kakashi-sensei.

"No backing out now." Kakashi-sensei smiled behind his mask.

"KAKA-SENSEI! PLEASE ANYONE BUT THAT BASTARD!" Kiba pleaded.

"EHHH? WHO YOU CALLING BASTARD? BAKA!" Naruto punched Kiba.

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! WHY DID YOU PICK RANDOM?!" Kiba punched and kicked Naruto.

They punched and kicked each other. *chibi style*

"Moving on." Kakashi-sensei checked the next one. "Sasuke, you'll be paired up with..."

"Oh Lord please no..." Sakura wished it wasn't her.

"...Sakura."

Sakura banged her head on her desk. "Great." She cursed mentally.

"Tenten, your partner will be Neji."

Tenten blushed.

"Ino, you'll be paired up with Ami....."

And so on...

"Now that you know your partners. I'll be telling your project." He faced the two boys fighting. Naruto and Kiba stopped as they listened. "You will be making a summary of a story. It can be anything you want. It can be an adventure, fantasy, love, action, horror, reality or any other kinds. You can make two stories if you like. It depends on you, but remember just a summary." Kakashi explained as the bell rang and they all left.

~~~Dismissal~~~

Sakura's POV

I was fixing my things at my locker.

Suddenly, someone tapped my shoulder from behind. I turned back and my eyes widened with shock. "Let's do the project later at my house." Sasuke said while holding his bag, in a hot way. I nodded with all the strength I had.

"Hn." With that he left.

Shooking my head, I noticed that I left my notebook at the classroom. I went inside and grabbed my notebook.

I opened the door to leave the classroom then...

SPLASH!
