Holiday(re-posted)
by uchihachik
Hey. It's uchihachik. I was inspired to write a fic including all the holidays I can think of. I'm gonna do a Christmas one, an Easter one, the May 2/4 weekend (Victoria Day), Canada day (I'm Canadian), Valentine's Day, New Year's, St.Patricks Day, Hallowe'en, and Thanksgiving.
My first one's gonna be an X-Mas one. No yaoi pairings.
I also wanna explain the name of this fic. It was inspired by the song 'Holiday' by Green Day. Man, that concert's gonna be awesome...Ahem...Moving on...Holiday describes the rowdy partying on the holidays. To me,that's what this fic is about.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. I can only dream...
In his dreams...
Every year, a certain blonde ninja spent his Christmas alone. He desperately wanted a change in his yearly routine, so he arranged a party and invited all the ninjas he knew. (And could get ahold of) He was planning on inviting all of the rookie 9, plus Gai's team and their senseis. He also invited Gaara. Nobody knows why, he just did. He also decided to invite Iruka. This party would be a hit! The highlight of the holidays! As he prepared for the party, he felt as though he was born to arrange parties! In fact,it was the (dare I say it!) dawning of his life. It was at this time, that Naruto realized he was thinking to the lyrics of a song. This was a very good song, but he couldn't even manage to think up his own thoughts...How pathetic.
Umm...moving on,
A knock sounded through the lonely, near-empty Uchiha residence. The single inhabitant growled something along the lines of annoying fangirls ruining his Christmas by giving him presents. I don't know how getting presents would ruin anyone's Christmas but...Sasuke's just weird. He opened the door to find a Santa-dressed Naruto with a sack slung over his shoulder."Merry Christmas, Bastard!" Naruto exclaimed and invited himself into Sasuke's house. "Why are you here?" Sasuke asked quietly.
"To ask you to come to my Christmas party!" Naruto exclaimed.
"No." his dark-haired comrade replied.
"Why noooooooootttt!" Naruto whined.
"Because...I'm busy." Sasuke replied.
"I haven't even told you when it is!" Naruto exclaimed.
"Fine. When is it?" Sasuke asked.
"Next Friday. 2 PM." He replied.
"Oh, sorry, I'm busy." Sasuke said.
"No you're not, you Bastard!" Naruto yelled and stomped over to his calendar."You haven't got anything marked on that day!" He stabbed at the day on the calendar (Which just so happened to have something written on it. Pay attention, this plays an important part in the conclusion.)."Here. Lemme fix it for you!" Naruto said loudly and circled the day with a marker and wrote in messy writing 'Go to Naruto's X-Mas Party'. "There." He said with satsifaction clear in his tone of voice.
"Fine. I'll go to your stupid party if you leave me alone for the time being until the party is." Sasuke bartered.
"YAY!" Naruto exclaimed happily.
"Beat it." Sasuke ordered and Naruto decided it was a good time to high-tail it outta there to see who else he could invite.
"Sakura!" He called as he knocked on her door.
"What, Naruto!" she yelled back.
"Do you wanna come to my Christmas party!" he yelled loudly.
"No!" she replied.
"Sasuke's going!" Naruto yelled back.
As if her tune had automatically had been changed from 'no' to 'yes', she yelled happily;"Alright! When is it Naruto!"
"Next Friday, 2 Pm" He replied.
"I'll be there." Sakura said.
Naruto was proud of himself. He never could have actually imagined getting people to come! He also never imagined it going soooooooo smoothly!
But, boy was he wrong.
"Kakashi-sensei!" he yelled at Kakashi's door.
No reply.
"Kakashi-sensei!"Naruto yelled louder and began to beat on his door.After a half an hour of knocking on his door, Naruto decided to try someone else.He had just turned away from Kakashi's door when it opened."Hello Naruto."Kakashi said brightly as he stood in the doorway.
"Kakashi-sensei!Why didn't you answer!"Naruto whined.
"I just got back from a mission."Kakashi replied."I got here just as you turned to leave."
"How did you know I was here?"Naruto voiced his curiousity.
"I saw you."Kakashi replied.
"How?"Naruto asked.
"..."No reply.
Then suddenly, a cool breeze blew past Naruto and made him shiver.It also made Kakashi look kinda spooky.Naruto was truly creeped out so he backed away...right into someone."AAHHHH!"Naruto yelped and jumped up in the air, only to be caught by someone."Gaaahhh!"Naruto screeched and wrestled with the person.He managed to get down and looked up at a laughing Kakashi."You can't even recognize your own technique."Kakashi said.Naruto glanced around to see two Kakashi cage bunshins plus the original.(...Do the math, people! 2 hot Kakashis plus 1 hot Kakashi equals 3 hot Kakashis. Good job! Look who passed grade 1!)
"KAKASHI-SENSEI!"Naruto exclaimed.
"A joke, Naruto.A joke."Kakashi laughed."Kinda like the one you pulled on me when we met.Remember?The eraser."the other Kakashis disappeared in a poof of smoke."Now, what did you want?"
"I was wondering if you wanted to come to my party..."Naruto began.
"When?"
"It's a Christmas party..."
"When?"
"I've already invited some people..."
"When?"
"Our team, Kurenai's team, Gai's team, Asuma's team, The sands, and Master Iruka..."
"When?"
"Oh.Next Friday at 2 pm."Naruto replied.
"Sorry.Can't make it."Kakashi replied.
"How are you sooo busy you can't even attend your prized student's Christmas party?..."Naruto asked.
"Yes.In fact, I am."Kakashi replied.
"But...I'm your prized student!"Naruto whined.
"You should realize that I put a lot more effort into teaching Sasuke."Kakashi stated.
"Perverted bastard..."Naruto complained under his breath.
"You realize I heard you..."Kakashi added as he began to shut the door.
"Please, Kakashi-sensei!PLEASE!I beg of you!"Naruto pleaded and dropped to his knees overdramatically.
Kakashi glanced around to make sure nobody was around before slyly wispering to Naruto;"How much money do you have?"
"Umm...$2.00."He replied.(I don't know how much yen it would cost)
"Take this..."He added and palmed Naruto some money."Go down to the bookstore and pick me up a copy of 'Icha Icha Paradise Volume 3'.I'm not allowed in the bookstore anymore because of the uhh...message I send to my students by the...content of books I read."He explained, pausing to pick his words carefully."That'll be my gift from you, alright?"
"Then you'll come to my party?"
"With bells on."
"What?"
"It's a figure of speech."
"..."
"It means I'll show up."
"Ohhhhhhhh...Thanks Master Kakashi!"Naruto waved as his sensei shut the door.Naruto darted through the busy Konoha streets, glancing over his shoulder every so often to check what stores he passed.He stopped in front of an adequite (sp?) looking bookstore and walked inside.
Ding dong went the entance bell as he walked in.He looked around at the sections of books.He read the subtitles.Magazines...nope...Manga...No...Stephen King(YEAH!Go Stephen King!)...Nah(Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh...Kakashi should read 'From A Buick 8'.'Tis awesome...)...Hentai...That sounds like him!Kakashi-sensei, the hentai!It almost rhymes!
Uhh...moving on...
He walked past a huge sign that said 'HENTAI SECTION SALE:ICHA ICHA PARADISE, HALF OFF' 'Good.'Naruto thought.'Then I won't need to spend all the money Kakashi-sensei gave me...'He looked around curiously.He saw books with people in weird...poses on the cover, he aproached a stand with Icha Icha Paradise on it.He picked up a copy of Volume 3 and walked to the checkout.As the cashier scanned the item through the cash register, he was staring at Naruto in an awkward way...as though he had comitted some huge crime by purchasing this book.Or even as though he were a piece of pond scum with a nasty stench."In order for you to purchase this book, you have to be 18 or older."
"WHAT!WHY!"Naruto yelled, earning him some loathsome glares from busy customers.
"It contains suggestable content and is rated M."he replied.
"It's for my sensei!"
"And how old is your sensei?"
"26."
"Oh.Then...your total comes to $11.99."the cashier said calmly.
Naruto dug in his pocket and pulled out a handful of change.He set it on the counter and began to count out quarters...slowly...
2 hours later...
"..$11.75...$12.00.."Naruto said with finality as he looked up at the cashier.The cashier had fallen asleep and began to snore loudly.Naruto poked him and he woke up.Naruto handed him the quarters and got a bag for his sensei's book.He walked out of the store, smiling triumphantly.
"Iruka-sensei!"Naruto yelled at his former-sensei's house.
"Hey, Naruto."his ex-sensei greeted him in his usual cheerful way.
"Iruka-sensei...can you pleeeaasseee come to my christmas party?"Naruto asked.
"Uhh...Sure.When is it?"Iruka asked.
"Next Friday at 2 pm."Naruto replied.
"Ok.I'll be there."
"Sensei?"
"What?"
"What does it mean to ask someone to a party and the reply that they'll be there 'with bells on'?"
"It means they'll show up."
"Ohhhh..."
"Why do you ask?"
"Kakashi-sensei said that when I asked him."
"Ahh...Kakashi seems like the kind of person to say that old phrase."Iruka replied, ending the conversation.
"Thanks!"
Naruto looked around."I wonder why they're not here?This is where they usually hang out..."
Who?You might ask...Well, 'who' is Kurenai and team.Naruto decided to invite all their team at one time.Naruto figured that, if he could get Hinata to go,(which he could)Kiba would go, and Shino would have nobody to practise with, so he would go too.If the entire team comes, the sensei has to come too!(or so Naruto figured)
His oh so logical brainwaves were disrupted by a farmiliar, loud voice."Hey! Jackass! What're you doing here!"
Naruto spun around to see the owner off the voice (plus his team) marching to wear the blonde idiot stood.
"So?What're you doing here!"the dark-haired dog-boy asked.He was supported by a bark from what seemed to be a puppy that was nestled comfortably in his jacket.
"Oh, I was just looking for you guys."
"Why?"
"I was gonna ask Hinata something."
The white-eyed girl blushed deep red."Y-yes, N-Naruto...?"
He grabbed her arm and pulled her away from her team.Kiba, meanwhile, thought Naruto was trying to take advantage of the shy girl."Don't touch her, Dumbass."Kiba cautioned.
"I just wanna talk to her in private."
No comment.
"Like I was saying before I was so rudely interuppted..."Naruto cast a sarcastic glance in Kiba's direction.
Glare.
Naruto pulled her to where her team couldn't hear.
"Do you wanna come to my Christmas party?"
Blush."O-of course, N-Naruto..."
"Alright!Friday at 2 pm."
"I-I'll be there."Blush.
"Umm...Tell the rest of your team about it, too."
"O-Ok..."
"Alright then!Bye Hinata!"Naruto exclaimed.Then shifted away slowly.He hid behind a tree and easdropped (sp?) on their conversation.
"N-Naruto's having a Ch-christmas party..."
Eye twitches."How DARE he not invite me!"Kiba exclaimed.
Naruto grinned at his own genius.If Kiba thought Naruto didn't want him coming, he would come, just to piss him off.
Hinata."I don't think he'll mind if you come, Shino or Kurenai.But he doesn't want you there, Kiba."
Kiba."I'll show that stubborn bastard! I'm coming anyways."
Naruto grinned wider.
Shino."I don't see a point in training if you two aren't going to be here. I'll come too."
Naruto (if possible) grinned even wider.
Kurenai."If you three don't come to traning, I might as well not either. I guess I'll come too."
Naruto...grins wider...and wider and (BOOM! Now his face explodes!Kidding, kidding...)even wider.Ka-ching! 8 down, 9 to go!(He's not even half way done...how pathetic...)
He walked into the all-you-can-eat BBQ buffet that Asuma's team frequented. Then he saw them. Choji was piling his plate high with everything he could get his hands on, Ino was flipping through what looked like a book of pictures...of Sasuke, Shikamaru was staring out the window at the clouds, and Asuma was warning Choji about obeisity (sp?) problems.
"HIIIIII!"Naruto exclaimed.
"Ohhh!"Ino squealed. "Is your team coming with you? Is Sasuke here?"
"No.It's just me.But I'll hang with you!"
"Uhh...No thanks."
"Heh..okay."Naruto said and took a seat between Choji and Shikamaru.
"Get away from my food!"Choji exclaimed.
"..."
"I swear! If you try and take it, I'll hurt you!"
"I'm not gonna take your food. I'll order my own. Do they have ramen here?"
"Asuma-sensei tried to take my food..."
"Uhh...yeah. Do they have ramen here?"Naruto asked Ino.
"SASUKE!"she screamed as the said ninja walked in the doorway...followed by a dark-haired girl who was talking to him.Ino stood up and raced over."Hi, Sasuke!"
"Go away..."
Sasuke and guest took a seat...far away from Ino.Ino just moved her plate to their table and started talking to them.They just left.She had begun to follow them, but her sensei spoke up."Sit down Ino.He'll be in the town when we're done our meal."
Ino complained in reply;"But what about that girl with him? Do you think they're going out?"
"Use your own discretion..."
Ino gave a final whine before sitting back down.
The blonde ninja (both of them) was getting desperate."Do they have ramen here?"Naruto asked Shikamaru.
"Ramen is troublesome..."
"Do they have ramen here?"Naruto asked Asuma.
"Yes.They have ramen here."
"Thanks."Naruto replied and called over a waiter."Ramen topped with BBQ pork."
The waiter scribbled words out on a notepad and nodded in reply.
Naruto waited a few minutes while trying to spark up a conversation from the unusually qiuet group.The only sound to be heard between them was Choji's eating noises, Ino's sighs, and Asuma's harsh breathing. All those cigarettes had started to take it's toll on his lungs.
"Soooo...Uhhh...What's up, Ino?"Naruto asked.After all, all of us know Naruto pretty well, and he can't sit still or quiet for over thirty seconds or he might go crazy.
She countinued to stare into the unknown, her eyes all misty.Of course, her reaction was as though Naruto hadn't even talked to her.She was obviously daydreaming about Sasuke...
"Uhh...Are you having fun, Choji?"
Choji resumed his eating. For a moment, Naruto considered that Choji just didn't hear him over his own eating noises, but then realized that Choji just ignored him.
"What're you looking at, Shikamaru?"
He finally got a reply;"Clouds."
"Why?"
"They're the only thing on this earth that isn't troublesome..."
"...Ok...Uhh...YAY!Ramen!"Naruto exclaimed happily as a bowl of steaming ramen was set down in front of him.Ramen over cloud lecture from Shikamaru any day! Within a few minutes, Naruto was finished and he was bored again.
"Hey, Asuma.Why do you smoke so much?"
"I'm trying to quit."
"Ohh...Why did you start?"
"Because I was foolish when I was young."
"Why?"
"Because I was young."
"What's the best brand of cigarettes?"
"Du Marier Regular."
"What's that?"
"A cigarette brand."
"Did you ever regret starting?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"Because...it's bad."
"Why?"
"I don't know."
"Why don't you?"
"Just don't smoke, ok?"Asuma said with an irritated tone in his voice.This kid was driving him up the wall! Next, he was expecting him to say "What's the meaning of life?" or another unexplainable question like;"Where do babies come from?" He could never imagine how painful it would be to explain that to a kid...Hopefully, he would never have to walk that path.Man, he never would have thought that a kid could get as annoying as Ino with her Sasuke obsession or Choji with his food obsession or Shikamaru with his...troublesome cloud obsession.This kid was nuts! How could Kakashi handle him? But, he is the Kakashi...He must use a forbidden ninja technique to control this kid...Or beat him...either-or.
"Wanna come to my christmas party?"Naruto suddenly asked, breaking Asuma out of his trail of thought.
"Uhh...When?"Asuma hoped it was a day he was busy, because he didn't think he could stand this kid for 5 minutes!
"Friday at 2 pm."
Damn..."Uhh...Sure. I'll come."He couldn't think of anything to say to the kid. He reminded him so much of himself when he was a little kid. Questioning everything that crossed his mind. Ahhh..the old days..Waaay back when...
Now, let's abandon Asuma's oh so fascinating thoughts and go back to Naruto's attempts...
"So, Ino.." he decided to use the same trick on Ino as he'd used on Sakura."I'm having a little get-together on Friday..."he said in what he thought was a smooth, cool voice.
"No. I'm not coming."
"Sasuke's coming."
"When is it!"
"Friday. 2 pm."
"I'll be there!"
2 down, 2 to go.
"Hey Choji. I'm having a party next Friday."
"Is there food?"
"Yeah."
"Can I come?"
"Sure."
Well, that was easy...Now, to the hardest one.
"Well Shika...Can I call you that?"
"No."
"Uhh...Shikamaru...Wanna come to my Christmas party?"
"No."
"There's a pretty good cloud view from my roof..."
"I'm coming."
"Friday,2 pm."
Shikamaru nodded.
That was unexpected...Naruto figured that since Shikamaru was smarter than the other two, save his sensei, he would be more difficult to get to come. He was probably the easiest one...
"Hey!Lee!"Naruto called as he concluded his search for any member of their team.
"Hi Naruto.Is Sakura here?"
"No."Second time today...Naruto thought.
"Ohh...What do you want?"
"Wanna come to my..."
"Hello Lee!"a green flash asked as it appeared out of thin air.
"Sensei!"
"Lee!"
"Sensei!"
"Lee!"
"Sensei!"
"Hey, do you two wanna come to my christmas party?"
"When?"
"Next Friday 2 pm."
"I have a fight with Kakashi that day..."
"He's coming..."
"Then I'll come too!"
"What about you, Lee?"
"Well...I was gonna ask Sakura out on that day.."
"Sakura's there too."
"Alright!See ya there!"
Next, he found Neji, Tenten, and Gaara at the ramen bar.
"Hey, guys."he was replied by three nods.Not loud nods, mind you, these three were usually pretty quiet."Do you three wanna come to my christmas party?"
Dot..dot...dot.."No."Gaara replied quietly.
"There'll be things to kill..."
"Fine."
"Neji, Sasuke's gonna be there...and he might fight you.."
"...Fine."
"And Tenten, Neji's coming..."
"Me too!"
"Alright! Friday, 2 pm."
The three nodded and walked out of the ramen bar. Naruto, proud of his work, took a seat and ordered himself some celebration ramen. Then Sasuke and the girl he saw Sasuke with at the buffet sat down beside him.
'Hey."Naruto said happiliy to the girl."Who are you?"
"I'm Kady(A/N:My OC.)."
"Hi Kady."
"I'm Sasuke's girlfriend."
"Oh that's ni-Wait.Did you say Sasuke's girlfriend?"
"Yes..."
Naruto stared wide-eyed at the girl."But..Sasuke...What about the whole 'I have to kill Itachi before I get a girlfriend' thing you had goin' on?"
"Well, she proved to have a strong connection with my brother.."
"I dated him too!"
"Wow.You must be forceful."
"Yup."
"How'd you make him date you?"
"I threatened him."
"Ohhhhhhh..."
"Hey...Sasuke...Why don't you bring her to my party?"
"Uhh...Don't you think it'll piss off my fangirls?"
"Why do you care?"
"Good point.We'll be there."
"Thanks."
Then Kady and Sasuke had some ramen.A blonde girl sat down on Naruto's other side."HIIII Narutoooo!"she exclaimed.
"Uhh...Hi.Who are you?"
"I'm Shawna(A/N:Another OC.), your biggest fangirl!"
"Ohh...Why are you here?.."
"I heard you were having a party and I want to go with you as your date."
"Ok. I'm free at the party."
"Yay!"
The night of the party...
Naruto waits impatiently with Shawna as three people walk up to his step.
Knock knock.Was heard at Naruto's door. He lept up and darted to his door. He swung the door open. "Merry Kurisimasu!" He exclaimed. Two dark-haired ninja and a blonde walked in.
"So dunce..."Sasuke began.
"You didn't exactly pick the best day for your party, did you?"Kady asked.
"Why?"
"Well,"Tsunade, the blonde that walked in the door, began"Did you forget about your mission today?"
Sasuke."I just remembered that on the way over.You see, I had it written on my calendar, but someone wrote over it."
Naruto."But Hokage! I have a party tonight!"
Tsunade."You should have taken your time when you picked the date for your party."
Naruto."But Hoookkaaaggee!"
Tsunade."Don't whine, Naruto."
Naruto."I know! I'll reschedule the party!"
Sasuke."Whatever.We're late.Master Kakashi might even get there before us."
Kady."I hired you guys!You're serving me on this mission!"
Naruto."Bitch!You screwed up my party!Motherfu-"
Woah, Naruto.Watch the language.This fic is probably rated...I seriously don't remember.
Kady."Let's get Sakura and go."
Naruto."Stupid...Evil bitch..."
Sasuke."Shut up, dunce."
And that's how it ends.
Except...
11 ninjas of all ages, ranks, and nationalities were gathered around the door.
Kiba."What the hell!"
Shikamaru."Can you not read?"
Kiba."CAN SO!"
Shikamaru."Then read it."
What are they reading?Can Kiba read?What happened to Naruto's party?
Find out in the next chapter of--
Ok, knock off the director act.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry,
I have a mission, so the party's rescheduled to a week today.
Thanks,
Uzumaki Naruto
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That was the note on Naruto's door.It pissed them all off.They left.
But what about the exuberance of youth!
Get lost, Gai...Stupid homosexual...Tries to take over my story. Man, he sucks at writing.
ANYHOW,
1 week later...
Naruto waits...and waits...and waits...
6 hours later...
A lonely blonde ninja is asleep on his couch, letting out a loud snore every few seconds. "NO!DON'T TAKE AWAY THE RAMEN!"he exclaimed as he sat up. "Man, that was a scary nightmare..."he rubbed the back of his head. He went to his cupboard to make himself breakfast.He noticed he had no ramen (Just like in his dream...) and so he set out for the ramen bar. When he shut the door, he saw a note posted to it.

THE END
Ahh...Man that was fun!I know I'm lazy cuz I didn't write Naruto's party, but I had ta get the chap done!Next is Easter!
BTW, as I re-posted this, I changed Sasuke's girlfriend's name, which WAS mine, to Kady, an OC. Shawna is also an OC. The two will keep appearing in my fics a lot. Kady will keep up her role as Sasuke's girlfriend, and Shawna will keep up her role as Naruto's girlfriend.
Bye,
