Chapter 3

                                    

                                          
I don't own any of these amazing characters except for Rin! 
                          
"I can take her to my house, Kakashi-Sensei, since she has no where to stay and us girls stick together." Sakura said as I slowly started to wake up. 
                          
"She's waking up." Duck-butt Uchiha said as I was opening my eyes. (A/N: I just came up with 'duck-butt uchiha' just now. I'm a genius!) 
                          
"What's going on?" I said and I still found myself my Naruto's back. 
                          
"Hey, Rin, do you have anywhere to stay?" Sakura asked, suddenly. 
                          
"Nope." 
                          
"See, Kakashi-sensei! My idea works! And where else would she stay?" Sakura said. 
                          
"True.. okay, Rin, you'll be staying with Sakura until you can get a place to stay." Kakashi-Sensei said as Naruto handed me to Sakura. "Sakura, after you get home, you and Rin go get mission gear for Rin, okay?" 
                          
"Yes sir!" Sakura replied. "Let's go, Rin!" 
                          
I waved to Naruto and Sasuke before trailing behind Sakura to her house. I've only seen it in a couple episodes and in the Road to Ninja movie. Well, more like her room. In a filler episode and in the movie, we see her kitchen, but that's it. 
                          
"Here's my house!" Sakura said as she helped my up the stairs. 
                          
"Sakura! You're home." Sakura's mom said as we entered. "Who's this?" 
                          
"Oh, Mom, this is Rin, Team 7's new teammate!" Sakura said as she helped my down so I could take off my shoes. 
                          
"Hi." I said kind of awkwardly, waving. 
                          
"Nice to meet you, Rin!" 
                          
"Rin will be staying with us until she can get her own house. Is that okay, Mom?" Sakura asked as she sat down to take off her shoes. 
                          
"Of course that's fine. It's always good to make new friends." Her mom said as she got up to leave the room. 
                          
"I think I have enough strength to stand up." I said as I had my hand on the wall just in case as I tried to get up. "Yep! I'm good, I can walk on my own. I think it's because I was tired."  
                          
"That's good! Well, I can get you some clothes so you can take a shower." Sakura said as she lead me to her bathroom. 
                          
"No skirts!" I shouted to her and it kind of echoed and I clamped my hands over my mouth. 
                          
I walked into the bathroom and the first thing I saw was my reflection and Sakura was more than 100% right.. I do kind of look like Sasuke. I had long black hair, black eyes, and my bangs are kind of like a mix between Sasuke's and Sakura's. When I met my eyes, I screamed. 
                          
"What? What's wrong, Rin?" Sakura said running into the room. 
                          
"Nothing! I thought I saw something, but I'm good!" I said waving my hands assuring her. 
                          
"Okay, that's good. I found something that isn't a skirt or dress." Sakura said and she handed me a small stack. 
                          
"Thanks." 
                          
"When you're changed, or when you get into the shower, I can patch up for clothes. As you can tell, they're a bit.. 'tattered' is a word you can use.." Sakura said before leaving the room.
                          
I walked over to the shower and turned it so the water would be nice and hot.  
                          
"Hey, I always wanted to change my hair, right? It'll take some getting used to though.." I thought as I got into the shower. "I wonder how everyone else is doing.." 
                          
When I got done with my shower, I found some of my clothes already fixed! Like the important ones, I you know what I'm talking about. If you're slow, I mean my bra and stuff like that. 
Sakura must've quickly caught onto what my style is because I found a pair of shorts and a plain red shirt with her clan symbol thingy on the back. Very simple. 
                          
I pulled a brush out of the drawer and a problem struck me. I don't know how to style my bangs.. 
                          
"Time to sound like an idiot.." I said under my breath and I went to ask Sakura to help me. 
                          
"Oh! You're out of the shower." Sakura said when she saw me. I saw her on her bed fixing my clothes. 
                          
"Yeah.. I know this may sound stupid, but can you help me with my hair..?" I said rubbing the back of my neck. 
                          
"Sure!" Sakura said and she patted the space in front of her. 
                          
I'm not really sure what she did, but she styled my bangs pretty good! 
                          
"Um, I just remember, but I have to meet up with a couple friends before we go shopping. Wanna come with?" Sakura said as she handed the brush back to me. 
                          
"Sure!" I said and we made our way back to the entrance of her house. 
                          
"We're heading out, Mom!" Sakura shouted after we put on our shoes. 
                          
"Okay! Don't stay out too late." Her mom shouted back to us. 
                          
I was struggling a bit going down the stairs, so Sakura had to help me. 
                          
"The place where we're netting up is a dango place not too far from here. All of the girls are really nice, and I think you'll like them and they will like you!" Sakura said as we started our way there. 
                          
"Okay! I'm kind of nervous for some reason.." I said, running my fingers through my hair. "Oh, Sakura, do you have a hair tie thing?" 
                          
Nice word choice, Rin! 
                          
"Umm, no.. Ino, one of the girls, she might." Sakura said as we arrived. 
                          
"Sakura! What took you so long? We've been waiting for ten minutes and we thought you ditched us!" Ino said getting up from the table she, Tenten, and Hinata were sitting at. 
                          
"Sorry! We ran behind." Sakura said as we sat down. 
                          
"So, who's this?" Tenten asked. 
                          
"I'm Rin. Team 7 basically found me in the middle of the forest." I laughed. Oh my god, someone help me.. I'm so awkward.. 
                          
"Oh! I'm Tenten. Nice to meet ya!" 
                          
"Um, I'm Hinata.. nice to meet you, Rin." 
                          
"I'm Ino. Nice seeing a new face!" 
                          
"Hey!" Sakura shouted and Ino and I laughed. Soon after, they joined in laughing.
