Chapter 1

"What do you girls think about this color?" Sakura asked as she showed the girls a bottle of hot pink nail polish. The girls eyed the small bottle before nodding their heads in approval, "Its okay I guess," Ino admitted, "What about this one?" Ino asked showing another small bottle of nail polish but purple in color.

"That matches your new group outfit," Michiko stated which the girls nodded their heads in agreement. For another half hour, the girls decided what colors of nail polish they should apply to their hands and feet before they painted them on.

--

Sakura decided to use the cherry red nail polish, Ino picked the purple one, Tenten agreed with the green one, Hinata decided to apply the light blue nail polish and Michiko picked the dark blue one.

After another hour their manicure and pedicure was dry and they decided to eat the pizza Michiko ordered earlier; surprisingly it was still hot.

--

When they finished eating they went up to Michiko's room to pick out what they're going to where for tomorrow. Then they decided to watch a movie after which they talked about the guys.

"So Hina-chan how are you and Naruto holding up?" Sakura asked, "I-I d-don't know what y-you're t-talking about S-Saki," Hinata replied nervously; all the while blushing a shade of red. "Don't pretend like you don't know," Ino said slyly.

Hinata blushed bright red again, "It's so obvious that he likes you Hina-chan!" Tenten exclaimed animatedly, "H-he d-does?" Hinata asked, unsure by the new information she just received. "Yup!" the four girls chirped.

--

"Well h-how about y-you and Neji-nii-san?" Hinata asked, professionally changing the subject, "N-nothing's up! Why w-would there b-be something g-going on between us?" Tenten stammered…replying a little too fast.

"Oh come on! Don't try and fake it! You like him don't you?" Ino questioned. The girls giggled when they saw Tenten's blush multiply five times more. "Well at least he talks to me and actually listens to me!" she defended.

--

"Shika-kun does listen! He even answers!" Ino argued, "As if! He barely pays attention to you!" Sakura laughed, "Alright, alright, geez well at least he tries to answer me even though he doesn't know about anything I say unlike your Sasuke-kun!" Ino said smirking when she noticed the blush on Sakura's face.

"I-I have n-nothing against it," she managed to say which caused the girls to laugh out loud, "But he's nice and sweet… sometimes," she defended, "Try never!" Michiko laughed.

"Well at least he offers me a ride home!" Sakura said again, "So; your point? Almost every guy at school offers us a ride home," Michiko pointed out. Sakura sighed in defeat, "You're right."

--

Michiko kept on laughing and laughing, "How about you and Kiba, hmm?" Sakura asked making Michiko dead quiet, "We're… just friends," she replied, keeping her face cool and collected. "Really?" the four girls asked making Michiko very nervous, "R-really," she answered backing away from the girls but every step that she takes the girls come closer by a step too.



"Are you sure?" the four girls asked again. Michiko kept stepping back until her back hit the wall; she was trap… did I mention toast? Michiko gulped, "I-I'm sure," she replied, "Then why do you blush whenever he's at least three feet away from you?" Sakura asked an evil glint present in her eyes.

Michiko's blush increased even more if it was possible and she gulped, "I-I don't," she stuttered. Sakura and Ino smirked, "Sure you don't, Mimi-chan," they said. "But I don't!" Michiko insisted, "Don't bother, they're already scheming something; I can feel it!" Tenten and Hinata said simultaneously. Michiko sighed, "It's gonna be a long night," she muttered.

--

Next day (Saturday)

"Ino-chan, wake up already!" Hinata desperately yelled shaking Ino, hoping that the blonde girl would wake up; Tenten was doing the same thing with Sakura. Michiko came out from the bathroom, "Bathroom's free," she announced as she walked over to her vanity to brush her hair.

--

Hinata and Tenten looked at each other, "Dibs!" they both shouted before racing to the bathroom. Unfortunately for Tenten, Hinata was the first one inside and shut the door with a click.

Tenten glared at the door before plopping on to the bed, silently cursing how Hinata has gotten faster. Michiko heard this and chuckled to herself, "Losing your touch?" she mused, "Ha-ha-ha, funny," Tenten said glaring at the ceiling.

"Aw, don't be such a spoiled sport. Hinata just got lucky, ne?" Michiko cheered. Tenten sighed and sat up looking at the bathroom door, "I guess you're right," she sighed before leaning back again onto the bed.

--

Sakura groaned as she sat up from her sleeping position, "Is it morning already?" she asked sleepily. She rubbed her eyes and once her vision was clearer she looked around the room; Michiko was at the vanity still brushing her hair, Hinata came out of the bathroom fully dressed with wet hair up in a towel, Tenten rushing to the bathroom and slamming the door shut, Ino jumping up from the sudden slam of the door.

She giggled and got up and approached the vanity grabbing the brush from Michiko's hand and started to brush her own hair. After a few strokes Hinata asked if she could borrow the brush and Sakura kindly gave it to her.

--

She glanced around the room and noticed Ino slowly getting up from her sleeping bag; Sakura smiled. "Ohayo, Ino-chan!" she greeted. Ino turned her head to where the voice came from and saw Sakura, "Ohayo," she greeted back sleepily.

A few more minutes and the bathroom door opened hot air coming out along with a fully dressed Tenten, "What a nice shower!" she said happily before skipping over to where Hinata was and snatched the brush.

Hinata glared slightly at Tenten for her rudeness but shrugged it off. Sakura went inside the bathroom and did her morning routine and also came out after half an hour inside the bathroom; a foot out of the bathroom, Ino came rushing inside and shutting the door closed.

--

Sakura shrugged and took the brush from the vanity table and began brushing her hair again. She looked around and saw Hinata and Michiko cleaning up the room and Tenten picked up the small trash that they forgot to throw last night.

Soon enough the three were finished cleaning up the room and they all sat down on the bed with Sakura following suit.

--



Ino came out of the bathroom dressed up and ready to go but she went over to the vanity and grabbed the brush and began brushing her hair while humming a tuneless… tune.

The only thing that was heard was the sound of the brush stroking hair and the tune Ino was humming. But it was broken when a maid came into the room, "Michiko-sama you and your friends' breakfast is ready," she announced.

Michiko nodded and signaled the girls to follow her to the dining room to eat breakfast.

--

"Mm pancakes," Ino muttered, sniffing the air when the girls were nearing their destination. Michiko giggled, "Sumiko-san loves pancakes and she makes the greatest pancakes," she said.

The girls mouthed an 'oh' and turned left where Michiko also turned to.

--

Once in the dining room the girls gawked at how big and fancy the dining room was. "Wow," they gasped. Michiko gave them a questioning look but soon she got the meaning, "It's no big deal really, since mom and dad always have guests over for brunches to dinners they made the dining room the fanciest room in the estate," the blue haired girl explained.

--

The girls nodded and sat down; Michiko sat at the end of table with Hinata to her right next to Tenten, who was across Ino, who sat next to Sakura, who was at the left of Michiko. "Itadakimasu!" they cheered before eating a slice of their pancakes.

--

"So, mom, can I?" Naruto asked. He still hasn't asked his parents about the trip yet until now, during their breakfast. He's already explained it to his parents and his dad was out for yet another business trip.

His mom was grinning from ear to ear, "That's a good sign," Naruto thought. "Why not Naru-chan; you can go," his mom, Kushina said. Naruto smiled and hugged his mom, "Just be careful okay?" Kushina said before letting Naruto go. "Thanks mom," Naruto happily said before chugging down his bowl of cereal.

--

"Oh you mean the outing the others were saying about?" Mikoto, Sasuke and Itachi's mom, asked. Sasuke nodded, "Yeah, that one," he said calmly. "Sure, why not? This might be a chance for you and Saku-chan to get together!" Mikoto smiled.

Her mother really wanted for the youngest Uchiha and the lone daughter of the Haruno's to get together. His and Sakura's mother always set up dates for them so that they had chances to get together. But unfortunately, neither of them had the chance to ask if they wanted to get together, resulting to disappointed sighs from both of their mothers.

Sasuke's eyes widened but disappeared as fast as it came but the blush remained. Mikoto giggled like a little school girl, "Have fun with the outing sweetie! Me and your father will be going out for two months and leaving tomorrow anyway and your brother will be spending his summer with the rest of his friends," Mikoto said before disappearing to the kitchen. Sasuke sighed; his mother can be so childish at times.

--

Neji has already told his dad about the outing and he agreed. Hizashi, Neji's father, also said that Hiashi, Hinata's father, already told him about the trip he and Hinata-chan's friends are planning.

He also informed his son about the outing he himself is going to have about some business stuff so he'll be out of the Hyuuga compound until enrollment week.

--



Shikamaru didn't say anything to his parents because Ino's father already told his father about the outing the girls were having and once his mother heard about it she insisted for him to go with the girls for the trip.

Shikamaru's and Ino's dad also told him that not to upset the girls or else he will be facing serious consequences. Shikamaru's reaction: "Troublesome, I'm going to my room."

--

Kiba on the other hand also had the same situation. Michiko's mom called his mom and told her about the trip the girls were going to have. Kiba's mom asked if the boys are coming and Michiko's mom answered, "I don't know but it would be nice if the boys will accompany the girls, just in case," and of course Kiba's mom insisted for Kiba to go with the girls and of course Kiba agreed to come.

Hana, Kiba's older sister, teased about how he and Michiko could get together and how cute he and Michiko looked together as a couple. Kiba's reaction to this was yelling at his sister about how he doesn't like Michiko other than a friend but he and his sister know how that was a lie. So he stomped his to his room leaving a satisfied smirk on Hana's face as he slammed the door.

--

It was already quarter to twelve and the guys just arrived at the mall. They were now currently trying to find the girls.

Neji called Tenten's number and unfortunately the voice mail answered. Sasuke and Naruto texted Sakura and Hinata but to no avail; they didn't get any replies.

Shikamaru on the other hand was also trying to reach the girls through Ino but she hasn't answered her phone yet so voice mail took over.

--

Luckily when Kiba called Michiko's number said girl answered the phone. Kiba gave a thumb up to the guys and the guys huddled close to Kiba's phone.

"Where are you guys? Do you know how long we've been trying to contact you guys?" Kiba asked.

--

Kiba put his phone on loud speaker so that the guys could also hear; they heard a giggle from the other side of the line, "Gomen, Kiba-kun demo the girls silenced their cell phones when we came to the mall; I'm the only one left the phone on just in case," Michiko explained.

--

The guys could hear the sound of shuffling and someone muttering something, "What do you think about that one, Hina-chan?" they heard Michiko ask.

"This one?" they heard Hinata ask back, "Yeah, that one. I'm sure that Naruto would like that; it matches his eyes," they heard Sakura say.

--

The guys looked at Naruto and eyed him before Kiba spoke up, "Um, Mimi-chan?" he asked trying to get the attention of the said girl but all they heard was shuffling.

"Hold on, Kiba-kun," they heard Michiko say, "Do you girls think Neji-nii-san would like this?" they heard Michiko ask.

"Doesn't that seem a bit bland?" Ino asked, "Well, sort of but still, what color we should get?" Hinata asked, "I think the brown looks good on him," Tenten said.



"You're right," they guys heard the girls talk, "Then if you're gonna get that for Neji, this should go along with it," they heard Sakura say.

"But that looks better on Sasuke-nii-san don't you think?" they heard Hinata say, "I agree with Hina-chan," Ino and Tenten said. The guys were now embarrassed but mostly curious to what the girls were doing.

--

Kiba spoke up again, "Mimi-chan? You still there?" he said through the phone, "Hm? What? Oh, girls that would look great on Kiba-kun don't you think?" he, and the other guys heard Michiko say. Kiba blushed.

"What are they doing?" the guys silently asked themselves.

--

The guys heard more shuffling in the background, "This looks cute on Sasuke-kun ne?" they heard Sakura ask, "I think the blue one goes well with Sasuke," Ino replied, "How about this one? For Shika-kun," Ino asked showing the girls some board shorts, "Green looks good on him," Tenten agreed.

Michiko was still on the phone but looking through some clothes with her free hand, "Kiba-kun? You still there?" she asked through the phone, "Yeah," Kiba answered.

--

"Where are you girls and what are you doing?" Naruto asked, "Naruto?" Michiko sounded surprised, "I'm on loud speaker aren't I?" she asked, "Yeah, sorry," Kiba said, "Nah it's okay. We're…somewhere," Michiko said.

The guys sweat-dropped at Michiko's answer; they heard Michiko laugh nervously, "I forgot the store's name, hold on," she said before they heard Michiko ask the girls in the background, "The guys are asking where we are," she announced to the girls.

The girls looked at each other, "Tell them that we'll meet them in the food court in about twenty minutes," Sakura said.

--

"Sakura and the others said to meet us at the food court within twenty minutes," Michiko repeated through the phone.

"Oh, okay. See you then," Kiba said, "Okay, see you guys later. Ja ne!" they heard Michiko and the girls say together before they heard a click sound meaning that she hung up.

"We have twenty minutes," Kiba announced, "What're we gonna do 'til then?" Naruto asked.

The guys shrugged and headed off to where the food court was located, "Might as well sit down and wait," Neji suggested. The guys nodded their heads in agreement.

--

They found a table fit for all ten of them and sat down and waited for the girls to come.

Soon enough, after twenty-five minutes or so, they heard giggling and when the guys looked up they saw the girls approaching the table with paper bags and plastic bags in each hand.

And being the gentleman he is, Neji helped the girls carry their luggage and placed them under the table.

--

The girls sat down and greeted the guys a good morning and the guys either greeted back or gave a nod as a reply.

The girls sighed and began chatting with each other animatedly.



The guys on the other hand also sighed. It was typical for the girls to talk. It was only a matter of time before they stop talking and do something else.

--

It was a good thing Kiba brought his PSP with him; he started playing games while the girls continued to chat.

Naruto, Sasuke and Neji were also bored so they watched Kiba play his game while Shikamaru was already asleep with his head buried in his arms on top of the table.
