A FINE DAY ON KONOHA ( Mostly NaruHina )

13. The four eyes girl

"Another perfect score for the test, Sarada.." Shino handed over a piece of paper with 100 marks on it.

"Thank you, sensei.." Sarada took it, without any excitement, she walked back to her seat.

"The test is unusually harder than the usual test, I must admit that, but I'm still proud we still have a student who got the perfect score.." Shino announced. "Boruto, Shikadai, and Chouchou, you must stay behind after class, you three got zero marks on that test!"

"Geez.. I'm going to eat yakiniku with Anko-sensei after class!" Chouchou whined.

"So troublesome.." Shikadai sighed.

"Hey four eyes!" Boruto turned to the girl sitting behind him. "How do you get so smart?"

"It's probably because my head is different than yours.." Sarada smirked.

"What does that suppose to mean?!" Boruto asked.

"She's saying that you're an idiot, Boruto.." Inojin chuckled at his slow friend.

"What?! You're just a bookworm!" Boruto yelled.

"Better than an idiot.." Sarada replied.

Boruto stuck out his tongue and angrily turned his back on her.

"Do the test again.." Shino brought the three students he mentioned earlier to the library, giving them their tests. "You can go home once you're finished.."

"What's the point of giving us a retest when I don't even know what I don't know-ttebasa!" Boruto sulked.

"I'm too tired to think.." Shikadai yawned.

"I'm too hungry.." Chouchou added.

Boruto sighed, looking at his two hopeless friend. Chouchou might be as stupid as he was, but he knew Shikadai was smart. He was just too lazy to think of the answers and write it down. The blonde boy walked to the bookshelf, trying to find the textbook for the test as he saw Sarada was sitting on the stairs, reading a book. From the cover of that book, it looked like something difficult about medic ninja.

"Yo four eyes!" Boruto callled.

"What is an idiot like you doing in this library?" Sarada asked.

"I shouldn't have called you, four eyes!" Boruto got pissed and left. But Sarada jumped down the stairs, hiding behind the bookshelf, she stared at Boruto scratching his head, eyes fixed on his test papers. But she climbed up the stairs again and continued reading her books.

Time flies as she enjoyed the new knowledge she got from the book. She closed the book and jumped down, noticing that it was getting dark. But before she left, she took a peek on Boruto, and he was still there scratching his head and whining.

Boruto flinched when a book was dropped on the table, he looked up and saw Sarada.

"The answers to that test are all here.." Sarada said, seated herself.

"Really?!" Boruto took the book and opened it.

Even with that book, Sarada was so pissed that he still got some answers wrong. "Number six is wrong, idiot! You should read it more!"

"Oh, you're right!" Boruto erased his answer and filled it with right one.

Sarada continued assisting him with that test, and he finally finished.

"Thanks, four eyes!" Boruto grinned.

"I.. I'm not helping you or anything!" Sarada blushed.

Boruto went out from the toilet, whistling happily remembering that Shino-sensei had just praised him for his make-up test that Sarada helped.

"That's why we thought that you're being so full of yourself!"

Boruto stopped his happy steps, hearing the intimidating voice from an empty class. He saw the door wasn't fully closed, peeking through that small space, he saw Sarada and the upperclassmen.

"Do you think you're so perfect?"

"It must've been nice to be born with smart brain like yours!"

"You must've looked down on people!"

"And you thought you'd suit Inojin-kun?"

Boruto was going to rescue the bullied glasses girl,

"First of all, I've never thought that I was perfect, and I never bragged about my perfect scores.." Sarada said with her arrogant voice, showing no sign of feeling intimidated nor scared. "And I never once thought that I'd come to like Inojin with that strangely pale skin and double faced personality of his.."

"How dare you talk back to us?!"

"Why shouldn't I? How can I call myself a ninja if I'm frightened with lowlifes like you bitches?"

"WHY YOU.."

"Sensei! The senpais are bullying Sarada-chan.."

Boruto was shocked hearing Inojin's voice next to him.

"Inojin-kun?!" the girls was startled.

"Sensei! Shino-sensei, this way!" Inojin continued.

"You'd better remember this!" the girls ran out through the window.

Inojin was pretending to call Shino-sensei, to scare off the upperclassmen. Sarada stared at him, "I can take care of them myself!"

"Those were my fans, I'd rather you not to hurt them.." Inojin smiled. "Your welcome by the way.."

"I never thanked you!" Sarada yelled, but Inojin had left.

Boruto was left dumbfound, staring at Sarada.

"I can take care of this myself though!" Sarada went out of the class, still complaining. "Don't underestimate me!"

"I know.." Boruto sighed. "That's why I didn't interfere.."

Sarada stared at him, blushing.

Boruto knew, that the glasses girl was actually hiding her fear, trying to be strong. And Boruto knew she could do it, she was strong enough not to get bullied. Though if they did start hitting her, Boruto would've come to her rescue immediately. Though he felt a little sense of regret when Inojin decided to butt in, feeling a bit pissed at the pale boy.

"Let's go home-ttebasa!" Boruto pulled her hand. "Just so you know, Inojin didn't help you because he likes you or anything!"

Sasuke who was preparing for another journey suddenly got chills. He had a very bad feeling, really bad...
