A/N

This is my first fan-fic ever! And I have a few things to point out...

1. Hinata is OOC, so I'm sorry! ^^' She's alot bolder than she usually is. And alot of the other characters are too.

2. The students call their teachers by their first names. It just sounds better than Mr. Kakashi.

3. They're all 16, and they year 11s are 17. I know that's alot older than in real life, but it's just for the story.

I think that's all, but please tell me if I've made any huuuuge mistakes.

I hope you like it, don't be too harsh please! I'll try to update as often as I can...

I don't own Naruto, or any of the names you recognise. Just the storyline.


---Hinata's POV.---

Urgh.

I hate the first day of school after summer.

Well. I mean, it's fun, but you get bored of it.

After about the first 10 minutes.

The only good thing is that you get to see all your friends again. I don't get to see them much during the holidays, my family always has all these events to attend, balls and ceremonies and stuff. Its nice to be able to dress up and have your make up done and all that but having to go through it 5 days out of a week is pretty excessive. And what's worse is that now I'm nearer to starting college my family are trying to find me someone to marry. Yeah, you heard right. Arranged marriage. I hate the idea of it, when I marry someone I want it to be for love, not because it's going to make my family look good. Sometimes it's not so great being rich. And I already have my eye on someone. I've liked him for, ohh, about, all my life? He's just amazing; he gives so much without ever expecting anything back. Everyone used to block him out, because of his past, but he never stopped trying, he never gave up. He's so strong, he's inspired me so much. Uzumaki Naruto. If you only knew how I felt. Haha, after saying all of that though, strange thing is that I don't like him nearly as much as I used to. He's had a crush on Sakura for as long as I can remember anyway. I'm starting to see him as a friend, and I think I like it like that. Anyway. First day of school. How scary is that? I'm just glad I'm with friends…


----Hinata's POV, At school.----

I walked through the doors, trying to get used to the size of everything, when someone shouted my name.

"Hinata! I haven't seen you for years! AND LOOK AT YOUR HAIR! Ohmygod, it's lush."

I pivoted to see Haruno Sakura, one of my best friends running towards me, and I smiled.

"Sakura! Haha, years, that's a bit excessive, isn't it? But thankyou for the compliment!" I laughed.

"Woahh, you're not stuttering! Are you okay?" said Sakura jokingly.

Come to think of it, I haven't stuttered for ages. Something must have happened over summer... But before I could answer her, yet another shout rang in my ears.

"OHMYGODLOOKATYOUTWOYOU'VECHANGEDSOMUCHI'VEGOTSOMUCHTOTELLYOU—"

"INO!" Sakura shouted. "CALM DOWN!"

Ino stood, trying to regain her breath before retorting "Calm down?! How can you ask me to calm down?! It's been weeks since I last saw you, do you know what that does to my brain? Gahhhh and I have to tell you about Portugal, so many hot guys…" she started drooling.

"'What it does to your brain'? Ino, you can't have gotten even more crazy." Sakura joked.

"WHY YOU-"

I laughed as they continued to argue, and looked at my timetable. Art first ehh? The best thing about being in the upper school is dropping all the crap lessons. Like, French, for example. So very pointless. They have English speaking people in France, don't they? Point proven. So I had art, then English, then science, and double music. Not too shabby, I thought to myself as I checked the time. I started to walk off, then I looked back, realising I had friends, and shook my head to see them still arguing. It's weird, they both clash so much and yet deep down they're inseparable.

"umm, guys?"

"WHAT?!" They both shouted at me.

I flinched and replied "Don't you think we should, err, be getting to form now? We're gonna be late…"

Both simultaneously checked their phones.

"Damnit! You're making me late, forehead!"

"You're the one who started it Ino-PIG!"

"Bye guys!" I shouted as I walked off, leaving them to shout at one another.

I walked a little while, and stopped in front of my locker. Fumbling in my pockets for my keys, someone really tall walked into me.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, are you okay?" a deep, but familiar voice asked me. I looked up, and almost cried out in happiness.

"KIBA!" I threw my arms around him.

"Uhhh……I know you then?" He asked me, puzzled.

"It's me Kiba? Hinata?" We've been best friends since forever. I've never stuttered around him, and he's the only boy I could be so forward around. We're like twins.

It took him a while to register what I'd said.

"AYAH! HINA!" He hugged me back, finally. "What have you got first?"

"Art, you?"

"Same! I didn't know you chose art?" He smiled broadly, and let go of me.

"Well, now you do!" I said, and poked him on the nose playfully. "Oh Kami, I'm gonna be late! I have to go Kiba! See you in art!" I stuffed my PE kit into my locker, and ran down the corridors, just getting into my form in time for the bell.

"Hinata, nice to have you with us"

Kurenai said to me, looking tired but pleased.

I nodded, figuring she was just tired from the first day rush, and went to sit down with Shino. He had his trademark glasses on, even I had to admit he was slightly creepy, I mean, I'd never seen him without them. And I'd known him for nearly as long as I'd know Kiba! Nodding along to him as he talked about some stick insect he'd saved from a cat, I began to formulate a cunning plan in order to get those glasses off. I wonder why he even has them. Maybe he's blind. And he has sonar hearing or something crazy? …That was a bit too weird. He was talking a lot more than he used to. Hmm. So many things have changed this year. I realised I had stopped listening when the bell rang, making me jump, it completely busted my train of thought. I felt Shino jab me and say something about first lesson. That was weird too, actual physical contact? From Aburame Shino? What was the world coming to? I collected my things, and went on to my art class.

Art with Genma went by pretty uneventfully, and so did English with Kakashi. Sooner than I'd expected I was strolling out the class room to break.

"HINA-CHAN!" I jumped, and looked around to see all my friends running at me, before I was violently glompled. I squeaked

"NAWH! DID YOU HEAR THAT? SHE SQUEAKED!" Tenten was almost crying at how 'cute' I was.

I sweat dropped and turned around to try and get away from the hug-fest when I yet again walked into someone. I looked up into the violet eyes of a year 11 who looked like he was about to explode.

"WHAT THE FUCK?! LOOK WHERE YOU'RE FUCKING GOING! JASHIN-SAMA, YOU YEAR 10S HAVE NO FUCKING RESPECT FOR YOUR FUCKING ELDERS!" He yelled at me

I looked at him, not able to tear my self away from his eyes.

"I-I'm s-s-sorry, I-I d-din't mean t-to...!"

"STOP FUCKING STUTTERING! DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING ANNOYING THAT IS?!" He stormed off to join his friends.

I sighed as I watched him leave, a little shaken from his outburst.

'You sure pick your moments to stutter, Hinata.' I thought to myself.


Well, that was chapter one! I feel like I'm being really cold in terms of how Hinata thinks, like, too formal/uncaring? I'm not sure how to put it, but I'll sort it out as I go along.
By the way, the years 11s are going to get ALOT more involved as the story goes on. :]
