Chapter one

"Sakura…."

She jerked in her seat and reopened her eyes to find them staring into blue shades at her eye level. Laughter and mutters followed in the background. When she averted her attention to the green black board with chalk written name 'Martin Klee,' she then remembered that she was in class. She wasn't engaged or cheating on her fiance like in her day dream. Gosh, it had felt so real.

She placed a hand on her unsteadily beating chest and blinked; she could hear more giggles around the class. Her eyes blurrily glimpsed at the students dressed in blue sweaters and cream skirts and shorts depending on the gender seated in their corresponding seats. A blonde girl was pointing at her, she couldn't see her face very well; she was so out of it today.

"Are you back?"

Her eyes found the owner of the voice. Azure eyes. Yes, her professor. She smiled at him nodding at his square chin and black mustache. He took his time shaking his head at her like a disappointed parent. Well, she hadn't meant to fall asleep.

"Anyway, we were all worried there for a second." He clapped suddenly and halted the chatter around the classroom. "So, I shall continue with what I was saying. No homework."

Sakura pushed her pink bangs out of her face and closed her eyes gulping the thought of the black eyes. Sasuke. Her hands shook and squeezed the hell out of her thighs hoping for the effect to leave her right that instant. That was just a dream. That meant that he didn't exist. So pay attention in class! She commanded herself.

"…but we have a test in three days…"

That statement took a while to get progressed through Sakura's mind for a second; after it finally did, her eyes snapped wider. "Huh?"

She caught blur faces in the front turning towards her. She had been a little too loud.

"Yes missy, while you were sleeping you missed an important part that will be on the test. However, since I'm a very handsome and nice professor I have given everyone three days to study for it. And you can look at someone else's notes. Anyway, if you study you will have a chance to get a B." He gave them a cheesy smile showing them the gap in his front teeth as if that was the best thing he said.

Sakura just looked at him.

He put his hands together making her jump out of her seat and increasing her pulse pace. "Okay class dismissed."

Sakura tucked her bang behind her ear to wander her eyes at the back of the class to see if anyone had had the same reaction. Of course, the students were getting up from their seats talking with their friends.

She stood up also and packed her text book in her book bag. Today wasn't her day. Her hands were still shaking.

"Hey!"

She twirled around almost bumping into the person. That voice! His breath smelled like mint. His onyx orbs pierced through her. There was a pause before her heart started running more wildly. Oh my gosh! What was she going to do now?

"I took notes for you while you were sleeping. I figured you needed a friend." His lips lifted into a smile making him more approachable.

She swallowed and closed her eyes.

"Hello, are you okay?"

Sakura reopened them, telling herself to look up at his hair to make sure it was him, and she wasn't imaging things. However, her gaze only managed to lower to his chin.

"Hm. I guess I'm that great. Ah, you will be fine. By the way, I'm so used to this to make you feel much better." He patted her shoulder, which wasn't a great idea, because she fell right into her seat with a 'Thump' noise.

Her whole body flowed with vibration after that contact.

"Are you okay?" He snapped fingers in her eye view. "Alright, I will leave you alone. Is that what you are trying to tell me right now? I will take my leave. These are your notes. See you tomorrow." He said it so slowly that it was so hard for her not to hear a word of it. Comprehending of course took a while.

Sakura sat there for a minute or two and then shook her head really hard. What was wrong with her? She came back to it when the boy was already out of the door. Her eyes found the red notebook lying on the desk. What was this?

She opened the book and saw the notes on 'Trading'. Oh my gosh! That was so nice of him. She hadn't even told him how grateful she really was. Who was he? She knew everyone in class. However, she had never seen him before. Had he come in while she was embarrassingly dozing in class?

What was he thinking of her now?

How was she going to face him again?
