Welcome to Gaia! ::

Neji ran through the building doors, sliding across the floor in his haste to make it to his first period class. His alarm had not woken him this morning, and he didn't want to be late. A tardy mark would ruin his reputation, and take time from seeing Kabuto. Tardies meant punishment, and punishment meant not seeing his crush.

Because he wasn't paying too much attention to his surroundings, Neji failed to notice the classroom door opening. He slammed into the wood with a loud WHUNK! and slid to the floor, slightly dizzy. "Ow," he muttered quietly.

"Ohmigosh, Neji, I'm so sorry! I didn't see you! Are you all right?" Sakura fell to her knees beside the upperclassman, checking to make sure he was alive. "How many fingers am I holding up," she inquired in her best medical tone.

"Augh. Um. Six and three-thirteenths?" Neji watched as the pretty pink-haired girl starting twirling. "Why are you dancing?"

"Okay, we need to get you to the Nurse's office, stat. Up we go." With that, Sakura dragged the stunned boy to his feet and frog marched him down the hall, to the Nurse's station. "Kabuto-san, I have a patient for you!"

Sasuke listened to the teacher drone on and on and on. His lids seemed to get heavier. This class always made him drowsy. He hated it. Yet, he was passing it no problem. Sasuke leaned on his elbows, trying to focus on anything the man said. Sasuke let his head fall to the table with a small thunk. He knew the teacher wouldn't notice. He would be too absorbed in hearing himself speak. A hand moved to the back of his head. Sasuke messed with some of the hair that stuck up in the back. Everyone always asked him why he wore his hair the way he did. He replied the same every single time. 'Because I can.' A smirk crossed his lips at that thought. And they wouldn't dare question me about it.

Sasuke swore he felt eyes on him so he looked up just in time to catch Naruto's bright blue eyes with his coal ones. It felt like time had almost stopped for a second, but, Sasuke resolved that he wouldn't be the one to look away. He wouldn't...submit. Yeah, that's the word for it.


------------------------

Kabuto looked up from the papers he was organizing when he heard Sakura speak. He reached up and pushed his glasses back up the bridge of his nose and stood up, "What happened?" he asked, worried. Usually whenever Neji came in, he was just sporting a paper cut or a complain of a cramped muscle or pulled joint. Now, Neji couldn't even stand on his own feet.

Kabuto stood up and walked over to the two. He took the burden of Neji away from Sakura and held him steadily. Everyone always asked him why he didn't play sports instead of wasting all of his time in medicine. Sure, he was good at a lot of them, but, that didn't mean he liked them. He knew he didn't have the skills to get by in life on sports.

Kabuto bent over slightly and pulled Neji's arm over his own shoulders. He used his other arm to support the teens lower body by wrapping his arm around Neji's waist, "What did he do, run into a wall?" Kabuto asked as he led Neji to one of the cots.

(lol)
Naruto's eyes were caught with Sasuke's..... he immediatley looked away he did'nt care if Sasuke felt like he was pathetic. it was too embarassing. His face turned a obvious pink and he head his face, then the bell rang he ran out and his perfect picture of Sasuk fell to the ground about to be trampled. "Maybe no one would care about the picture anyway"

Sasuke got up almost as quickly when he saw the picture fall to the ground. He had seen some of Naruto's drawings before and they were too good to get ruin by about thirty pairs of feet. He saved the picture just in time, but, decided to look at it when he had his things safely in his possession.

He grabbed his things and flipped the picture over. His mouth hung open ever so slightly as he walked to his next class. He had to find Naruto and give this back. Or, he could keep it. Judging by Naruto's treatment of the thing he didn't really care about it.

----------------

Kabuto looked down in shock at the now passed out Neji and back to Sakura, "He could have a concussion." he said, the shock, alarm, and urge to laugh causing his voice to shake, "You should probably stay here in case someone needs some questions answered. You can take a seat, Ms.Haruno." Kabuto's politeness often got older women to compliment him and younger women to blush, but, he wasn't going to change just to save some embarrassment from traveling around.

He took Neji to the back and carefully laid him down. He rested a hand on the younger teens forehead to make sure he hadn't developed a fever. A lot of the time, he creeped people out by his accuracy with these things. Kabuto ran his hand along Neji's hairline, looking for the bump he was sure he would find there. When his fingers ran over it, he made a mental note and got up.

Kabuto walked out and grabbed an icepack, a paper towel and a blanket and walked back, "Don't worry about missing class, Ms.Haruno. You will be excused." he called. Kabuto wrapped the icepack in the paper towel and rested it gently against Neji's head. He pulled the blanket up to his hips, hoping to add a little comfort to his stay. He rested one elbow against the bed and leaned on his hand. He watched the boy as he thought. Penguins, huh? What a laugh. "I'll keep an eye out for them." he mumbled under his breath. Then he remembered the hospital.

He was contemplating if he should call or not when he leaned a little too far forward and the stool came out from underneath him. Kabuto caught himself before he went face first into Neji's, well, face. That would have been awkward. A piece of hair fell in his face. He tried blowing it out of the way, but, it continued to irritate him. He had a choice here. He could let himself fall on Neji and get up carefully, but, risk accidentally giving a little too much physical contact or he could try to untangle his legs from the stool and carefully back away. Even if he could release himself from the stool's wrath, he would probably end up bumping a shin or two and a kneecap. Decisions, decisions.

Naruto was almost about to blush from being so close to him so he had to do something that would..........that would.......... well....... hide his feelings for him. "well I'm sorry mister perfect I was trying to get something next time i'll make sure to stay out of your way" Naruto said raisinig hiis voice a little but not over a whisper.

Kiba was still in the bathroom cutting at his wrists when he hear Itachi at his locker....... if Itachi came in he did not want him to see him like this so he hid his arms in his sleeves and walked out of the bathroom and walked past Itchi as some of the blood seeped through and landed near Itachi's feet so Kiba sped up.
