Hello and welcome to another story. Sorry for all people waiting for another chapter of one of my other stories "My path towards a better future" but I need to collect ideas and flesh out the story more, so please excuse me for that. All I can say is that there will be an one-shot by christmas, which probably will be a sequel to this story, while there will be also a chapter of my current main story coming out shortly before christmas and probably also another one shortly before new years eve. So you can be excited about that.
But for now, enjoy my new two-part story called "Working together for the christmas party". In this story Boruto and his friends are trying to organize a pre-christmas party in the academy. Enjoy and review.

O
Konoha academy
"Please listen everybody", Shino said to the class after entering the class room.
"What's up Shino-sensei? Once again pissed about how poor the class did in the last exam? Genjutsu is still too high for us right now", Boruto said.
"N-No Boruto. We're going to talk about that another day but despite the holidays coming soon I wanted to do something...special".
"Huh something special you say?", Boruto said in surprise.
"What could it be?", Denki said behind him.
"I bet extra lessons because of the bad results of the test", Iwabe replied.
"That would be a drag", Shikadai said.
All the kids in the class started to talk with each other, completely ignoring their sensei.
'Why I have to be the teacher of this class...'
Shino raised his hand before he started to talk with a more louder tone.
"Now please be quiet!", Shino shouted.
The kids immidiately stopped and looked over to Shino.
"Before you continue talking, let me announce something. I've talked with the principal and I managed to get the approvment to organize a christmas party next Saturday. A lot of games and a feast where you can eat as much as possible, but I.."
"I AM PARTICIPATING", Chocho shouted, only thinking about the food.
"Oh Chocho, let me guess you only want to come to the party because of the buffet right?", Sarada said to her.
"All of my yes", Chocho answered with a dreamy look on her eyes.
'Another party? Huh?', Mitsuki thought.
The other kids were skeptical, especially knowing what happened last time.
"Shino-sensei, are there going to be plushies made of bugs like last time when Mitsuki was new?", Namida asked
"I hope not. That was awful", Wasabi said.
"No there won't be any bugs...but that's all up to you", Shino said.
"What do you mean sensei?", Boruto asked.
"I mean that you're going to organize the party. I am only going to watch over you while you're doing this", Shino answered.
"What? We should plan and organize it? We're kids at all!", Boruto shouted.
"Well I could overthink my evaluation criteria for the Genjutsu subject for those persons who'll help out with this. Boruto you may be a genius in Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and practial usage of them but your Genjutsu skills are highly flawed, so that may be a chance for you to improve your grade".
"...I have think about that after class", Boruto said.
"I only really some of you anyway", Shino said to the class. "But before I am going to pick the students, we have to collect some ideas".
Shino turned right.
"Come in", he said
The door of the class room opened and a girl with purple hair entered with a stack of papers on her hands.
"Hello everybody", the girl said.
'Huh Sumire? What's she doing in all of this?', Boruto thought.
"Everybody, I am going to be head organizer for the christmas party. I hope many of you are going to help us with it", Sumire said and looked over to Boruto.
'I especially hope for you Boruto-kun', Sumire thought.
"Sumire is going to help? Well it was obvious that she'll help. She's the class rep after all", Boruto thought.
"Now pick up one of those papers and write down what you would like to see in the party", Shino said. "We're going to pick out the most popular suggestions and try to include them in the party, but please nor ridicilious ones like tables made of chocolate".
"Or plushies made of bugs", Mitsuki said, the whole class laughing by his statement.
"R-Right. You have five minutes".
The whole class started to write their suggestions down on the paper. There were also some questions on it about what they would like to eat or what games they would like to play. While everybody is focused on the task, Sumire walked over to Boruto, sitting next to him with paper and pen on her hands. Boruto didn't noticed that she sat down besides him.
'He didn't noticed me. But that's okay', she thought, smiling to him and started to write down her own suggestions.
After five minutes, Shino started to pick up the papers.
"Everybody stop now and give me the papers with your ideas", Shino said as walked over the whole class.
"I am done!", Boruto said as he turned over. "Hey, what do you guys hav..."
Boruto looked to Sumire who turned her head over, looking directly into his eyes.
"S-Sumire? I didn't noticed you".
"I-It's okay Boruto. D-Do you have something against me sitting near you?", Sumire asked shyly.
"No of course not. You shocked me a bit but everything is fine hehe", Boruto said grinning.
Shino came over them and picked up their papers.
"That's a lot of things you've written down Boruto", Shino said.
"Y-Yeah I probably overdid it", Boruto smiled.
"We only pick two or three things out of you. Remember that", Shino talked to him
"Y-Yeah", Boruto said as Sumire still smiled at him.
Shino walked to his desk and was now writing something on the blackboard.
"We need some of you for the food planning, some more for the location managment, advertisement and some for the games", Shino said.
"I am in for the food planning", Chocho shouted.
"Me too", Wasabi also said.
"Okay, two are enough.
'I want to help out for the games. The only position I am personally interested in', Boruto thought
"Get me into the advertisement. I can use my art for the flyers", Inojin said.
"Advertisement sounds okay for me", Sarada said.
"You two advertisement is okay. Next is the location".
"I suck at Genjutsu so if that can improve my grades, then I am in it", Iwabe said.
"Not really motivated but I also need better Genjutsu grades so pair me with Iwabe", Shikadai said.
"Okay and now for the games", Shino said.
'Now it's time to raise my hand', Boruto thought as he started to do so.
"HERE", two person shouted. Boruto turned over and saw two hands raised up to the air.
"The Kaminarimon company would support you with the newest gaming technology", Denki offered.
"That's really nice of you", Shino said.
"My dad works for a similiar toy company so he could also help us out with it", Namida said
"Perfect. Now we have two person for every role", Shino said.
'That sucks but okay. More time to relax watching some Kagemasa and eating burgers then', Boruto thought, looking somehow sad. He befriended with the idea of the party in the last few minutes.
Everybody else were discussing about the party, only Boruto was left without anybody to talk to and just starred out of the window.
Sumire looked over to Boruto and was sad that he couldn't made it into the organization team.
'Maybe...'
Sumire turned over to Shino and started asking him.
"Shino-sensei, I probably need someone helping me with all that".
"Needing help as the head organizer? Why that? It shouldn't be a problem for you?".
"B-But I probably still need a second hand. It would help a lot having another one by my side", she said.
"Hmmm...okay there's nothing against it".
"Can I suggest someone for that role?", Sumire said.
"Who do you want to pick?", Shino said.
Sumire took a long breath and turned once again to the direction Boruto was. He was still looking outside, waiting for Shino to end class. She walked towards him until she stood before him.
"B-Boruto-kun..can I ask you something?", Sumire started.
Boruto looked right and saw Sumire standing in front of him.
"H-Hey. Of course. What's up?", Boruto started talking.
"Would you like to help me with the organization? I may need your help", Sumire asked with a smile.
"Huh? W-Why me?", Boruto asked with a shy tone.
"I-I trust you the most and you're making me strong whenever you was by me. Please Boruto-kun".
"O-Okay. No problem", Boruto said.
"Thank you!", Sumire said, overjoyed.
Sumire returned to Shino and told him her new partner.
"I am okay with him, but please watch over him so he won't cause problems", Shino said to her.
"Of course", she replied.
Shino turned over, standing in front of the whole class.
"Okay everybody. That's it. There's no class tomorrow except for those who are organizing the feast. You can all leave now".
"Goodbye sensei", everybody said.
"See you tomorrow at 12 P.M Boruto-kun", Sumire said as she left the class.
"Yeah see you tomorrow", Boruto shouted.
O
The next day. 12 P.M
Boruto ran quickly to school, overslept once again.
"Crap I even oversleep midday".
Everybody is waiting in front of the school, waiting for Boruto to arrive.
"That idiot is once again to late", Sarada said.
"He'll sure arrive soon", Sumire said to her.
"Heeeey", shouted someone from the distant.
"There he is. What a drag", said Shikadai.
"Sorry I am late", Boruto said.
"We know that. Oh boy", said Inojin.
"Okay everybody. Me and Shino-sensei analyzed the suggestions this morning and I've written down the best ones down".
Sumire gave everybody a list of the suggestions and intstructed them to their work.
"So we're going to split and Inojin you're going to design the advertisement and the flyers. We don't have any location and starting time yet so leave some space for that. When you're finished you're walking over to the TV and radio stations so they can announce the party for us."
"Roger", both Inojin and Sarada said.
"Iwabe and Shikadai, you're trying to rent one of the nearest event halls near the school".
"Okay we're on it"
"Chocho and Wasabi, you're going to look for some cooks and ask them if they could work for us that evening. Please ask them if they can cook those meals but tell them it's not that necessary".
"That's going to be fun", Chocho said.
"Yes indeed", Wasabi said.
"And you Denki and Namida, please contact your parents about how much it would cost to transport and build up those games and how many they can give us".
"Okay Sumire"
"What we're gonna do?", Boruto asked Sumire.
"You're helping me with the ressources, event planning and putting everything together", Sumire said with a wink. "Okay let's do it everybody!"
"Yeah!", everybody said.
O
Konoha academy: Teacher office
"Where we're going?", Boruto said.
"Shino-sensei said we can work in the teacher office", Sumire said as they walked down the floor of the academy until they reached the door.
"Here we are", Sumire said to him as she opened the door.
Nobody was in it, not even Shino. It was a neat little room with a small kitchen, a table with some seats and a nearby small bathroom.
"We can work here for as long as we want", Sumire told him, smiling to him.
"That's a really great place and such but what we're going to do now?", Boruto asked.
"Shino gave me his laptop", Sumire answered as they sat down near the table.
'We're all alone. I hope he enjoys our time together as much as I do', Sumire thought while looking on her partner.
'I am alone with a girl I actually like very much! I hope everything is going to end well', Boruto thought.
"S-So how are you lately Boruto-kun", Sumire started a conversation to get him in the right mood to work as she started working on the laptop.
"G-Good, everything is fine. And you?"
"I am fine. I am glad I have so many friends around me lately. I feel so happy near them", Sumire returned.
"I am glad for you. I really hope that won't change until the rest of your life", Boruto said.
"It won't. I am pretty sure about that", Sumire said to him. 'It won't thanks to you Boruto-kun'.
"So do you have someone you're spending christmas with? I bet you're feeling all alone when you're home", Boruto asked.
"No, actually not. And to be honest it was me who suggested this feast to Shino-sensei. It may've been a bit selfish from me, but I really wanted to celebrate christmas with my friends, especially you...", Sumire told him.
"Especially me? Why?", Boruto asked curiously.
"Because you're the one who saved and always believed in me. You changed me and I am happy to have somebody like you around me", Sumire said.
"I-It wasn't solely me. Everybody did their part to help you", Boruto returned.
"Maybe, but you definitely did the most for me", Sumire smiled.
"Y-Yeah that may be the case. But I would say let's focus on our work for now", Boruto said to her.
"You're right, so let's start", Sumire returned.
With that, they returned working, planning and organizing the event, enjoying each other's company.

Part two comes out soon. Sorry once again for the delay. But now since christmas is just around the corner, there's more freetime for me to continue my stories. Thank's for your patience. Please leave a comment/review.
