The Slam Book
Chapter 1
Hinata Hyuga was walking along the path. She was carrying a book with an orange cover and two people on the front. Hinata was so into the book that she did not notice the person she was about to collide with until the moment of impact. "Watch where you're going." The person said to Hinata before realizing who he bumped into. "Oh! Sorry Hinata" grinned the person who had bumped into her. He had blond hair and cerulean blue eyes. IT was none other than the hyperactive knuckle head ninja of Konoha. "Naruto!" cried Hinata out of embarrassment and shame, "I am sorry for knocking into you like that." Naruto replied sheepishly, "Ehh. That was my fault too you know." Naruto helped Hinata up and saw that she was holding something. "What is that?" questioned Naruto with a huge amount of curiosity building up inside of him. "Nothing" lied Hinata waving her hands in defense with the book safely in her weapons bag, "See you later Naruto!" Naruto waved back at her and hinata left with her face turning red by the step.
-------(Line inserted)---------
Hinata started walking again after calming down from the Naruto incident. 'No one else should know about this book,' thought Hinata as she remembered the words the girls told her.
Flashback
Sakura, Ino, TenTen, and Hinata were having a sleepover at Sakura's house. Suddenly Ino got a great idea. "Since we are separated by teams and busy with missions, we don't get to hang out as much" she stated. The other girls nodded their heads and murmured in agreement. Ino continued "I propose t-" Sakura interrupted by saying, "You proposed to Shikamaru? Aww… How sweet." TenTen laughed out loud, Sakura was rolling on the floor laughing, and Hinata sat there chuckling. Ino got so mad, her face turned red. "You look like Hinata" stated TenTen still laughing hard. Everyone started laughing at that. "Anyway. As I was saying before I was so RUDELY interrupted. I propose that we should start a journal that all of us write in and let others read it. I think it is called a Slam book (A/N: I don't really know what they are called). Ino was responded by a chorus of yes, sure, and Okays. "But, be warned no one should read the book besides us." Sakura stood up and saluted Ino military style. "Yes sir!" shouted Sakura with a funny grin on her face. "Be quiet forehead girl!" Ino replied playfully shoving her. The rest of the night was filled with writing and gossip. The book was an Icha Icha blank book. It was the perfect disguise. No one would be asking to look at it. How wrong they were. It was Hinata's turn to take the book home.
End of Flashback
Hinata walked by the ramen place. The guys from the rookie nine and Gai's team were there. So were the teachers. "Yo! Hinata over here!" shouted Kiba as he waved to her. Everyone saw that Hinata was too busy reading the book to notice so they went over to her. "What do you have there Hinata?" questioned Hinata's older cousin, Neji. Over the past few years, the two of them had become good friends. Hinata quickly put the book behind her back in a futile attempt to hide it. Sasuke rolled his eyes. He could see that she was nervous, so he decided to try her nerves. He walked around her so fast it seemed like he didn't even move. Sasuke saw the book. He thought it was one of the dirty books the toad sage wrote. Team 8,with the exception of Hinata, went on all sides of Hinata. They tried to take the thing from behind her back. "Hinata please show us what you are hiding" pleaded Kurenai with her fingers folded. "I-I'm sorry, b-b-but I can not." Hinata said with a faint hope that they would dismiss the subject. But nobody is that lucky. Lee started jumping around saying how youthful it is to share with friends. Hinata did her best trying to protect the precious book from her friends who were acting like they were on something.
After half an hour, the group still had no luck. Sasuke who was enjoying the show decided that it was now wasting his time. HE jumped from the tree he was in and landed behind the crowd. "Enough!" he commanded and the party became dead silent. That is until Naruto broke the silence barrier. "Why should we listen to you Teme?" "Because I am better than you and older. And you need to listen to your elders. Dobe" replied Sasuke flicking Naruto on the forehead (A/n: He did not have his forehead protector because he took it off to eat and still had it in his hand). "OWWWW!" roared Naruto as he flew backwards. Hinata gasped and rushed over to see if Naruto was okay. SAsuke snuck up behind her as she tried to tend to Naruto's wounds. Sasuke grabbed the book from her weapons pouch, but immediately got a kick to a place where guys shouldn't be hit. "CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNBBBBBBBBEEERRRRRYYYYYYYY!" shouted Sasuke as he held the spot dropping the book in the process.
The flock of people laughed. Hinata used this chance to escape. She quietly and swiftly picked up the book, did a few hand signs and poofed out of there before anybody could react.
Hinata teleported herself to her favorite place. At a cherry blossom tree in a hidden location. There she started reading the book without the constant fear of being interrupted. She felt much better after realizing the fact she was all alone. She laughed as she read the book. The book said this:
Dear slam journal,
Today was a good day for romance, or so I thought. I once again tried to talk to Sasuke to get him to go out with me, but my tries were pointless. He just said the legendary "Hn". That gets annoying after hearing it for so long. Naruto tried asking me out again, but I shot him down. CHA! I don't get how he doesn't realize how much Hinata cares for him. I really hope they get together.
Got to go,
-Sakura
Hinata shook her head at her friend's journal entry. It actually said that Sakura wants her and Naruto to get together. Hinata couldn't believe it. Hinata became conscious that she had to give the book to one of the girls as she found out that the entry she read was the last one. "Who should I give it to?" asked Hinata to no one in particular.
At the group
The group was thinking about a plan on how to get the book. Naruto was shouting random ideas such as trapping Hinata in a room with no way out until she gave up the book or holding her hostage to get the book. Kakashi was sitting there with his little nasty book. "I got it!" Shino cried out startling everyone. "I'll plant one of my female beetles on her and we'll track her. When we find her we will make her hand it over to us." Heads nodded in agreement. "We have no other plans" sighed Sasuke as he was tired of wasting valuable time instead of training.
