I was in a daze. My consciousness was going in and out. Rolling over with a very unladylike like grunt, I finally registered the noise of my alarm clock. "Who and why was that set again?" I asked my mind. A couple of minutes ran by before I sprung up quickly, getting a quick case of whiplash. "Dammit, schools today. That means summers over." With a scowl, I lifted my light purple sheets off my body. A cold chill hit me in an instant. Why does my father insist on turning on the air at night?! Shifting my legs over to the edge of my bed, I yawned. Today was the first day at a new school. And I was starting my first day in mid year. As my feet touched the cold beige carpet I trudged myself over to my bathroom. Turning on the lights and then the knob to the shower, I stripped out of my night-clothes. Reaching to the back of my head, I quickly pulled out the hairband that was holding my hair together. Instantly a pool of blond locks fell in a train around my body only to stop at my waist. After stepping into the shower I gave a relaxing sigh. The hot water did wonders to my bones, waking them up and refreshing my sleepy skin. After washing my body with my apple shower gel, I began to wash my hair with a sweet plum shampoo that I loved so much as a child and still to this day. After doing my daily do's, I hopped out the shower and wrapped a fluffy towel around my body and made my way to my room to get dressed.
I got out my uniform and dried off; inspecting my clothes for school. The uniform consisted of a red and black plaid skirt, white blouse, black bow, knee-high white socks, and after getting dressed I made my way to the bathroom. I blew dried and straighten my god forsaken long, layered choppy hair. Good thing I finally got it a little cut. Putting it in a neat ponytail, I looked myself in the mirror. Long black eyelashes that graced my cheeks, fair-skinned with deep green eyes that apparently had specks of blue if you looked at them in the right lighting and slim waist that had all the right curves. I never really cared for my breast but I had a C-cup, which is not too large and not small at all and also the right buttock size. But that's me Ino Yamanaka. So after straightening out the kinks and wrinkles in my uniform I went back to my room and got my backpack, sweater, phone and my iPod; every kids' savior on the first day on anything.
Walking down the hallway, I stopped at my dad's room peaking in. I didn't see him; just a mess of clothes spilled out everywhere. We just moved here last week, I mean seriously? Puffing I quickly went down the stairs. looking both ways, I called out to my dad, "Dad! where are you," I said walking into the kitchen. "You promised you'd give me a ride to school! You better have not-," I then cut off my voice, seeing a note laying on the island that is address to me. It read,
"Dear sweetheart, I'm sorry, but I'm not able to take you to school like I promised. But you're a senior now so you can take yourself, yeah? Plus something came up at work, but I was able to get your car out the garage. The keys are in the bowl and here's some money for your breakfast/lunch and the directions to Raffton's for your new job. Remember to go there right after school. Don't mess up, I have faith in you. :) Love Dad.
PS: HAVE A GOOD DAY AT SCHOOL! SHOW THEM WHO US YAMANAKA'S ARE!"
I blinked. My dad was officially getting into the child coach phase again. Tossing the note aside, I pocketed the directions to my new job in my book bag and grabbed the keys to my PT Cruiser, along with the house key. I rushed out of the house and locked it. Upon tossing my book bag into the backseat, I got into the front and ignite it all the while mumbling about how bad my father was. I know that I'm a Senior but hey, my dad and I are like super close since mom passed away years ago. Plus I wasn't even aware he fixed my car and I didn't want to walk that hour trail to Konoha High Prep. Pulling out of the drive way, I made my trek to my new school. Rolling down the windows I breathed in the morning air. I was nervous.
"Dammit Ino! It's just school, you will be fine." I said to myself. Tapping my fingers on the stirring wheel, I glanced at the clock. 6:54 a.m., gasping, I hit the wheel. School doesn't start until 8:35. Gritting my teeth, I stopped at the red light. I needed music. Turning on the radio, the song Hello by Martin Solveig & Dragonette played. Driving away, I let my ears get satisfied with my speakers.
"I just came to say Hello!" I let my self flush away my worries as the voice went in and out my ears. "Doesn't really mean that I'm into you hello, oooo"
Letting myself sing along as I looked for a quick place to eat, I pulled to another freaking red light! What's with Konoha City and their red lights on every street?
"Hey!"
Sighing, I let the ending of the song fade right when I caught a glimpse of a Waffle House. My mouth watered. I turned down the radio and pulled into Waffle house. Why is their so many of vouchers here? Stupefied, by the amount of cars, how many people eat here at 7:23 a.m. in the fucking morning? Grunting, I rubbed my temple while I waited for this car to leave. And dammit they took their sweet time doing it. I was about to honk my horn, due to Ino Yamanaka road rage; like a bitch on wheels at that, when finally they pulled off and I whipped my car into the slot like a ninja. Rolling up my window and locking the door I made my way into the House of Waffle.
The smell of waffles engulfed my nose. Today started off okay, went bad and now it's getting fixed. Waiting until someone came to seat me, I pulled out my phone. 7:34 a.m.. Great! I had enough time to scarf down a waffle or two. Snapping out of it when I heard a woman's voice saying,
"Excuse me Ma'am, but how many?" she asked rudely. I looked around me, obviously it was just me though. Dumb ass. But instead I just smiled and said just me. She nodded and walked me to a booth.
"Excuse me can I sit at a table?" I asked. She stopped and smiled and nodded again. I sat down after I took off my sweater and looked around the place.
Full of teenagers, no wonder that woman was in such a snappy mood; they were all loud as hell. "Ugh, just what I need."
I analyzed the groups. They seem popular, looks and everything. But one group stood out the most, their table was surrounded by the other groups. On first glance they looked like they were in college but maybe it was because they were tall. Two guys had spiky hair; one red and one blond. One guy has black spikes in the back and pressed sides; kinda like a duck, and the last guy that has black hair is in a ponytail that looked like a pineapple in a way, but he was attractive. Hell they all was. But this last one grabbed me. Snapping out of my thoughts, I told the waiter what I wanted; two waffles and an orange juice. Not even waiting until she left I went back to looking at the mystery guy. It seemed like he was a calm one; him and the duck haired boy who looked really annoyed. The blond boy was trying to talk to him, while the red-headed one was gulping down everything on the menu. Wow he could eat!
I then noticed there was a lot of girls back there. But one was loud, kind of like a banshee. She sported short pink hair and such a broad forehead that looked like you could land an airline on it. She was yelling at the red-headed boy. I kind of felt sorry for him, I mean who wants someone in their face while they eat, you know? Next was a girl who had spiky dirty blonde hair that sectioned into four pony tails. What was with these people and spikes? Kind of weird I thought, but hey, can't judge until you know I guess. Back over to the pineapple headed guy again, I looked at his physic; tall and lanky but nonetheless it made him look even more attractive. That's where it hit me! His uniform; same as Konoha High Prep, along with the rest of them. Looking him up and down again, he seemed down right bored, seeing that his face rested in his palm while looking out the window. Studying his face some more, for he has a very chiseled jaw structure and a very sharp noise. Looking up farther, our eyes connected.
"Shit!" Quickly glancing down to my newly arrived plate, I thought about his eyes; sharp and black. Digging in slowly to my food, I glance out under my eyelashes the best I could. This one time I wished I had kept my long side bang, but I had to put my hair in a full-blown pony today! Just great, now he probably thinks I'm a stalker, creeper girl. Letting out another sigh, I looked to see if he was still looking; he wasn't. I let out a breath that I wasn't aware I was holding.
"So much for wishing for a slight Romeo/Juliet moment, Ino."
Wait why am I even thinking of the Titanic? And weren't they star-crossed lovers anyways? Mentally shaking my head, I finished up my food and gulped down the last bit of orange juice that I had. Man I must have been hungry. Glancing to the spot where the other teenagers were, I registered they were finishing up, with the waitress piling up the plates. Something she should be doing for me.
I look down at my phone, it read in bold numbers 8:10 a.m.. Quickly ushering the waiter over to my table, I asked her to bring my bill. Not even two minutes later did she bring it back. Looking down at the tab, I got out $7.01 and told her to keep the change. Seeing her face almost made me laugh, at least she earned a penny. Has she never heard of a penny for your thoughts? Quickly smiling at her, I put my sweater back on and walked out.
Swiftly walking to my car and getting settled, I looked out my rear view mirror. The whole group of students that I was gawking at earlier was walking out now. "Psst I wasn't gawking," I told my brain. "Just looking at my new surroundings." Yeah that's it.
Looking back again, it seemed like they came in a lot of cars, but that specific group came in one car. My eyes quickly landed on the pineapple one once again. He was getting into the back of a black 2012 Toyota Corolla, along with the others. It sure was nice, looked new and everything.
BEEPPP!
I jumped at the noise and looked around; it was the car behind me. Apparently they wanted this spot. Holding up an apologetic hand, I made my way out. I know how it feels to be waiting on some incompetent person. Making one last glance over to the black car I swerved out the lot. Trying to blank out the Pineapple headed boy and focus on what was to come.
