Step One: Who Does What
November 27th. Sakura looked at the calendar and smiled. The thanksgiving party she had sorted out was that night. There was still a whole lot to do. The pink-haired girl left her room and then went off to the living room of her house.
"Sakura? What time is the party?" The girl's mother replied turning around. "It's supposed to start at five. Hurry up and leave. The rookie will be coming here to set up soon." Sakura responded not really caring if she was sounding inappropriate or respectful.
The girl's mother nodded and then left the house.
Sakura sighed and then waited. And waited. And waited.
It was ages before someone finally knocked on the door.
Sakura jumped for the door and when she answered, she saw a blonde boy smiling at her. "Hey, Sakura!"
"Where's Sasuke?" The girl replied, ignoring Naruto completely. She pushed Naruto out of the way to find Sasuke standing there looking completely bored.
"Oh, hey Sasuke!" Sakura replied gleefully.
"Hn," was the Uchiha's response. Sakura ushered the two inside. "Alright, not everyone else is here yet. But until the-" She was cut off by the sound of door knocking.
Sakura flung open the door to see Teams Eight and 10 standing at attention.
"This is so troublesome. I don't even know why I agreed to do this." Shikamaru answered dully while rubbing the back of his head and neck.
"Be quiet, Shikamaru," was Ino's response. The two teams walked inside.
"Everyone will have their own thing to do." Sakura replied automatically giving herself the job of boss.
"Oh great, work," Shikamaru murmured to get nudged by Ino. "And we'll get to eat the food when we're done, right?" Choji asked looking up from a bag of red potato chips.
"Yes, Choji." Sakura responded through gritted teeth. "Can I please continue?"
"Nothin's stoppin' you." Kiba answered and Akamaru barked in agreement.
"Okay. Hinata, Ino, and I will work in the kitchen making the food. Naruto, you Rock Lee and Sasuke go to the store to pick up the stuff ONLY ON THE LIST." Sakura went on for a while and let her listeners fill in the people who came in a while after.
"Alright everyone. Let's make Thanksgiving dinner!!" Sakura announced happily.
