A rowdy school jock and the studious student council president - what could possible go wrong?
Oh, did I mention that they used to know each other in elementary school?💙❤️
Or so she thought, until she heard a handful of rowdy snickering coming from a hidden corner. She heard the pop of a lid come off, only to hear a shake and a continuous fizzing sound, which could only be spraying. Delinquents.
It looked like Student Council President Sarada was being put right to work the moment she arrived. Scoffing at the audacity, she sped to the corner intending to put a stop to the delinquent vandalists who clearly had no other sense of purpose in life to stoop so low.
“Hey! You guys are violating school rules! Stop what you’re doing immediately!” She scolded, her tone sharp and reprimanding.
“Ugh, I told you this was a bad idea, getting into trouble is such a pain…” a boy with a ponytail groaned, tugging at the perpetrator’s collar who was still using the spray paint. “Let’s bounce, dude.”
“Aw come on, it’s almost done!” The other boy countered, and Sarada’s heart dropped at the sound of his voice. No. No. This was a joke. A foolish attempt at comedy. A big, fat—
“Look Boruto, I know that you’re new to the school, but the girl in front of us is the Student Council President. She could actually get us into trouble.”
“Oh?” Boruto teased, before turning around to see the girl that his friend was talking about. “Oh.”
Oh!? That’s all he has to say!?
“ Oh is correct, Boruto. ” It had been so long since she said that name, but it still fell off her tongue just as easily as it used to. “Since you’re new, I’m willing to let this slide just once as I don’t really feel like ruining my morning either.” She stepped forward, glaring at him dead in the eye. “But you should know, this school doesn’t let delinquents like you off the hook easily, and neither do I.”
It wasn’t like Sarada to be this aggressive in a school setting, but something about the person that she was reprimanding seemed to throw her off balance, just as it did back in the day. It only frustrated her further.
“Hmm? Oh wow, a threat from the president on my first day here? I must be special,” he mocked, stopping the paint that was spilling from his can as he let his hands rest behind his head, elbows pointing upward. “Don’t you wanna try?”
“What did you just ask me!?” Sarada yelled, scoffing even further at the audacity. School hadn’t even started and he was already causing problems!?
“Oh sorry, I shouldn’t have assumed that your ears are fully functional, my bad,” he passed his paint can to his friend, immediately starting to move his hands in a way that Sarada didn’t understand.
“...What?” The ravenette deadpanned, wondering if this was his idea of a sick joke.
“Oh? The president doesn’t even know sign language? Damn, does that mean even I’m qualified for student council?” He snickered, clearly amused by everything that was going on.
Sarada was even more pissed at this. How dare he not only violate the school’s code of conduct, but now mock her for not knowing sign language!? There was no way she would let this slide.
“The school council isn’t something to laugh at! Not like a spoiled daddy’s boy like you would ever understand what it takes.” Boruto’s eyebrows furrowed as his sky blue eyes pierced into hers. Sarada had said that knowing that Boruto’s father was the head of their education district, clearly he hadn’t taught him any manners.
“Wow, they really elected a busy-body like you for president? Were there even any other candidates?” He scorned, bitterly laughing as he grabbed the paint can from his friend and started to shake it up. “And I really don’t get what the problem is, I mean, all I did was make a homage to ThunderBurger.” He pointed to his piece on the wall that read “ThunderBurger Rules” in different shades of blue and pink.
“I hope you know that you’ll be expected to stay after school to wipe this all off,” Sarada snided, putting her hands on her hips. She didn’t understand what his problem was.
“And if I don’t?” The blond raised an eyebrow, a calloused smirk emerging as his face inched closer to hers. Sarada was taken aback by their proximity, but she refused to back down.
“Then I’ll report you, and you’ll be suspended on your first day of school.” Sarada scowled back, her onyx eyes carrying her fury. Boruto merely cocked his head back in annoyance before sighing. “And I don’t think your dad would be happy to find out that his son is a delinquent,” she found herself saying before she could stop herself. This earned her another glare from Boruto.
“Whatever you say, president. ” He tossed the paint can into her hands as she barely managed to catch it, not failing to rub a little bit of leftover paint from his finger onto her cheek before leaving.
