Hi!! This is my less perverted story. Actually since I am quite perverted in a way I might make it a little racy...heh, oh well!
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, and I probably never will... :'(
Full Summary: Sakura is a new border at Shini High. She meets all but five of her fellow borders, called the 'ghosts'. As she begins to meet them one by one, she feels a sense of both fear and something else…
Chapter 1
As the taxi rolls into the driveway I stare at the building in front of me. It's huge! And there's this garden and a path at least 100 metres long. It's gorgeous, I immediately love the borders site. I could really get used to this! After I pay the taxi driver I grab my bag which he so nicely took out for me and walk up towards the front door, which feels like ages, 100 metres remember! I am a bit lazy too. Although I am a little sporty...But I prefer not to play anymore.
I knock on the door and after several minutes knock again. Still no answer, but as I try for another knock the door swings open swiftly, a tall boy appearing before me. He had blonde hair and the bluest eyes I've ever seen.
"Ah! You must be Sakura-chan! Hi, I'm Naruto! Come in!!" he said eagerly. He seems sweet?
As I walk in awkwardly he calls a couple of names and seconds later several people appear. A girl with short dark hair and opal eyes, a boy with long coffee coloured hair in a low pony tail with the same eyes, and a guy with a huge coat and a random dog standing beside him, it's so small, and cute!
It runs towards me and tried to jump on me as I introduce myself to the others.
"Err...Hi my name is Haruno Sakura, I'm 16 and it's a pleasure to meet you all. And it's lovely to see a bordering house with a small amount of people! Some border houses get so busy sometimes, I dislike crowds.." I say nervously as they all stare into my face, I feel like it's going to melt at any second and fall onto the dog that continues to jump onto me. Finally I try to escape their eyes and bend down to pat him. He licks my face and I laugh a little.
"I think he likes you.." says the boy with brown hair and the huge grey coat on.
"Akamaru!" he scowls as he picks up the little dog, it whines a little but that's about all it does.
I smile as the boy walks away up a set of stairs to the right. The hallways a little small but I like it. Then as I straighten up the other boy walks towards me and extends his hand and speaks.
"Hi, I'm Neji; I'm the captain and supervisor of this borders house. Nice to meet you. This here is Hinata" he says as he makes a hand gesture towards the girl holding her hands to her chest. "And that there is Naruto.." he continues as he gestures towards the blonde boy struggling to lift my luggage up the stairs. I feel a little embarrassed; I have a tendency to bring things that I don't need...
"And the boy who just walked upstairs with his dog is Kiba..And there are a few more borders here.." he concludes.
"What? Um, oh ok. Yeah that's cool...How many more?!" I say. He holds up his hand and all his fingers are extended.
"Five other people! That's heaps!" I exclaim.
"Hey Sakura-chan, don't worry about it, they hardly show themselves at all. You won't even notice! We call them the ghosts" said Naruto from the fourth step. I smile and watch as Neji walks away. I walk up to Naruto.
"I'll show you your room. I think you have to share with somebody.." he says as we both lug my luggage up the stairs slowly but steadily.
"Oh?" I quirk my eyebrow. I'm not really one to share, in fact I dislike sharing rooms, I'm a personal person who likes to be alone…I think Naruto sees my slightly annoyed look and continues to speak.
"It's ok, you won't notice him"
"Him?" I say in reply.
"Yeah, he's one of the ghosts, like the other four of the others you haven't met yet. Actually I've only seen him at dinner about once a week or at special occasions but hardly ever though. I think we are in one class though..." says Naruto trailing off.
"What's his name?" I ask as we finally reach the top of the stairs. Naruto then takes the bag from me and leads me down a hallway and to certain door.
"Gaara" Naruto then smiles at me and walks away, but not before he says "If you need me, my room is another flight of stairs upwards, I share a room with Hinata"
"Bye..." I say lightly as I focus my attention to the room before me. So I have to share a room with this guy called Gaara do I. Hmm…Hopefully I really won't see him a lot, like Naruto said. But then I think that that's probably too much to hope for, I mean, we'll be living in the same room right? And for a very long time I imagine. Oh well. I suck it all up and turn the handle to the room, swing open the door and walk in. It's dark and cold, I then flick on the lights and walk in. When I walk through the door for some reason I suddenly feel a chill run up my spine and the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end, as if being pulled up by small invisible men. I feel a presence behind me and turn around hastily. I see a pair of black eyes staring at me through a gap made between the door and wall, across the hall. I didn't even realise there was another room there. Then I watch quietly as the door shuts. I relax once more after thinking about how creepy that was. I then close the door behind me to avoid that happening again.
I glance around the room and take a look at the room I will live in for the rest of the year, and since school starts in two days I should try and get used to this room and this bordering house as much as I can.
As I stand in front of the door I can see two beds, one against the wall on the left had side of the room and one on the right side of the room, also against the wall. The bed on my left had crimson sheets and pillows and is messed up with the sheets bundled together, and the bed on the right had no sheets on it what so ever, that must be my side of the room, I concluded, because also on the left side was a dresser with a whole bunch of stuff on it, like rings and a half open draw with stacks of clothes inside. At the end of the room was another door. I walked over and open it with ease and it swung open. I peered inside. It was a bathroom, it was really quite nice. There was a large bath that doubled as a spa and there was a shower with a glass door and to the right was a sink with a huge mirror, and a couple of draws below the sink. I then looked at the other door to the right; I opened it and saw what was inside: just a simple toilet.
I closed the door and found my empty dresser and unpacked. I then sorted out my clothes into separate draws; a draw for tops, bottoms and underwear. There was one draw left so I decided to put all the stuff I wouldn't need, all the stuff that I brought for no particular reason, for example; a magnifying glass and random pieces of paper with random poems on it and an empty coin bank that I know I'll never use, oh well, I suppose it was the sentimental value that caused me to bring those things. When I finally have everything unpacked and neat in my new room I sit on my new bed with fresh blue sheets and two cloud pillows and two blue pillows. As you've probably noticed, I'm a pillow freak, I love them, I feel extra comfort from them. After I straighten out my bed I grab a towel and clothes and head for the bathroom.
I turn on the water for the bath/spa, then I pour some shampoo in, I'd love a bubble bath. After I ease in and sit at a relaxing position I close my eyes and imagine what Gaara looks like, and the rest of the 'ghosts' as Naruto put it and wonder whether those dark eyes I saw before belonged to one of the 'ghosts'.
Then suddenly I feel a cold breeze and I open my eyes to see a guy with dark hair and eyes and a silky black robe on stroll over to one of the draws near the mirror. It's Gaara's draw so I assume that it's him.
"G-Gaara?!" I say in protest. I mean, I'm having a bath goddamn it! Maybe he didn't realise I was in here.
"No, I'm not Gaara, I'm just borrowing something from his draw" replies the boy as he turns and looks at me as he slips something into his pocket and closes the draw. We stare at each other and I see his eyes wander. I then feel self conscious and break the silence.
"Err…I'm having a bath.." I say.
He smirks and replies. "Yeah, I can see that"
I'm taken back by his response. "S-So can you g-get out?" I say loudly.
"Ok ok.." he says before he turns on his heel and walks out the bathroom door and closes it behind him. I then hear the other door close and figure that he's left my room, sorry me and Gaara's room.
When I finish in the bathroom and ponder about which 'ghost' I've just met I sit on my bed and comb out my long pink hair. I stare at the bed opposite me and stare at how messy it is. After a while it begins to annoy me so I stand up abruptly and hastily walk over to it and make the bed. I fluff out the crimson pillows and smooth out the crinkles in the crimson sheets. Satisfied with what I've done I clamber back into my bed, I then remember my most prized item and retrieve it from a hidden pocket in my suitcase. I hold it to my heart; a precious plushie that my mother gave to me as a child, when my parents died, this is all I had; it's the most special thing to me in the world. It's in the shape of a puppy. I then kiss it and place it on the dresser beside my bed and fall asleep in a matter of minutes.
When I wake up I yawn and stretch, I then reach for my plushie and to my horror it's not there. I scream and run out of my room and run up to where I think Naruto's room is, but before I knock I hear something odd. I press my ear to the door and hear panting and the sound of springs. Then I hear Naruto's voice.
"That's the way Hinata!" he says. I take a couple of steps back, even more horrified that I almost walked into my new borders having sex. In my disturbed and panicked state I run downstairs and try to find the others. I find Neji and with my two hands grab his shoulders and speak between huffs.
"Have…ou….s-see… puppy…plush?" I said breathlessly. He tries to make sense of my babble and shakes his head.
"No, I don't recall seeing your...puppy plush…Have you maybe, misplaced it?" he replies as he brushes my hands from his shoulders.
"That's…not…possible, I…put…dresser…last…night…" I blurt out. I'm practically hysterical. I then see the boy from last night, the one who just casually walked in while I was bathing. I then see something protruding from his pants (You sick minded people! I know what you're thinking…o.O!!). There, hanging out the top of his pants is my puppy plushie!! The very thing I love most, inside the pants of a most likely perverted stranger!!
