Chapter 3: Allergic
Gaara: Well, that was one uneventful chapter. The last one I mean.
Me: OH REALLY!? Hyuga just had his first kiss!! Aren't you excited?! (has a romantic look on her face)
Sasuke: The only ones who should be excited are Neji, and Hyuga.
Me: Coooooooorny…
Neji: Stop fighting as if I'm not here.
Me: But we are concerned for your FUTURE!
Neji: (twitches) You're worse than Gai-sensei!!
Sasuke: Anyway, I want to be the wedding planner!!
Neji: Wha- who said I was having a wedding??
Gaara: Well, aren't you? You and Tenten I mean.
Me: Guys, we're going off the subject!!
Sasuke: Who cares!!
(Sasuke and Gaara go off to the side and plan Neji's wedding)
Gaara: mumblemumblemumbleIwannabethebestmanmumble
Sasuke: grumblemumblecolorschemebrightbluemumble
Me: Just ignore them.
Neji: (twitch) I take it back, they're worse than Hiashi!!

DAY 2
Tenten opened her eyes and found herself staring at Hinata Hyuga's pearly eyes.
"EEEEEEK! Hinata don't do that to me!"
"Shhhh, everyone's s-sleeping!"
"Sleeping? Who's everyone?"
"Haven't y-you forgotten? We're stuck i-in Kono South M-Mall. With boys."
"WE ARE?!"
"Stop it! I-if they wake u-up, we won't h-have the ch-chance to talk!"
"Talk about what, Hinata-chan?"
"You f-fell asleep o-on Neji-sama last night."
"I d-did?! You're joking!"
"You don't r-remember, T-Tenten-Chan?"
"No."
"Well…"
FLASHBACK (about 1:30 a.m)
Where did my cousin and my best friend go? Hinata wondered as she explored the mall.
She reached the top floor, the one near the skylight. Ohhh… there they are… how sweet! Tenten and Neji were leaning on each other, and from what Hinata could see, Tenten had been crying. So I was right… Neji-sama is the one that's going to make Tenten feel better… the one who will ease her pain… I knew they'd be happy together… But what do I do? I can't just wake them up…
(poke) "Neji. Neji sama."
"Mppmh."
"Neji."
"Hinata?"
"Shhh… look at Tenten."
Hinata giggled when she saw Neji's face. He blushed.
"When…"
"I don't know, do you think I watch you guys?"
"Yeah!"
Hinata rolled her eyes.
"Neji, you can't stay here, you know… you have to move her with the rest of us. We found some mattresses…"
"Hey, Hina-chan… you're not stuttering!"
"Just ignore it."
"but…"
"Just carry Tenten!"
"Fine…"
END OF FLASHBACK!
"Oh… n-nothing happened. A-actually… but y-you did sleep o-on Neji sama!"
"I DID?!"
"Stop screaming!" Neji woke up, who was sleeping on the other side of the floor. "Oh. Morning, Hina-chan. Morning, Tenny-chan."
"Neji?"
"Hn?"
"Do you remember anything about last night?" Tenten asked. Oh please let it NOT be a dream, if the kiss was a dream, I'll kill myself.
"What are you-" Neji remembered the kiss. "Oh! Uhm." The look on his face was so clear that Tenten started blushing.
"Wh-what is it, N-Neji-sama?"
"Nothing! Hinata, nothing!" Neji looked at Tenten and blushed. Tenten grinned at him.
What happened last night? I need to knoooow…
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! Eyebrows of death!" Sasuke woke up screaming.
"Sasuke-kun?" Hinata said smilingly.
"(pant pant) The green jumpsuit lives!!"
"Someone had a bad nightmare… (yawn)" Sakura woke up, who had been sleeping next to Ino.
So it won't get confusing, they were sleeping like this: boys on one side, girls on the other.
"What the heck did you dream about?" Naruto said, who was sleeping next to Sasuke. (A.N Now don't go thinking the wrong things! Everyone had their own mattress, okay?)
"It was horrible! Don't make me go into the details!"
snore… snore… snore…
(thud)
"Ow!" Gaara, champion snorer, woke up to find Ino standing over him holding her shoe.
"I hate snorers. Don't ever do that again. Unless you want to see my high heels." Ino grumbled and slumped back into her 'bed'.
Everyone laughed.
"Good morning everyone… how troublesome." Shikamaru got up from the other side of Neji and yawned.
"It's funny how we became really good friends in one night." Sakura laughed as she got up and started walking around in circles to get her… motivated for the morning.
"I know! By the way, what did I miss last night?" Tenten smiled as if nothing had happened.
"A lot. Ino admitted that she's afraid of-" Shikamaru started laughing.
"Don't you dare tell anyone, NARA! You want my high heels?" she screeched from her mattress.
"No, but it's okay if I have your bunny slippers? Your lucky bunny slippers?" Nara, I mean, Shikamaru kept laughing.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH! Shikamaru Nara!!" she yelled and practically leaped out of her bed and jumped on him.
Everyone started laughing.
"What are we gonna do for food?" Naruto whined the minute Ino stopped pounding Shikamaru's head.
"We're in a mall, dobe, what do you THINK we're gonna do?" Sasuke hit the back of his head.
"Ow!"
"You're not saying we're gonna STEAL, Sasuke-san?" Sakura said, wide-eyed.
"Don't tell me you're not hungry!" Naruto said, staring at Sakura.
"They're girls, baka, they can eat one piece of lettuce and be full," Neji stated.
"That's not true!!" Tenten yelled.
"How do you know, as seeing you don't even act like a girl!"
"Well you should be the expert on girls since you're always whining like one!"
"Girls are menaces and can't be takenseriously! Why should I be the expert?"
"Well at least girls don't hold a burping contest once they're done eating 7 cheeseburgers!"
"We can't eat that much, Tenten!"
Everyone sweatdropped.
Here we go again… Sasuke rolled his eyes.
Will they ever stop? Ino sighed.
How troublesome. (guess who)
"Okay guys, break it up already! We need to look for food!" Sakura stepped between the two of them and pulled Tenten away. Gaara did the same with Neji.
"What is UP with you Neji?! You can't fight a girl!" Shikamaru scolded him.
"I can't help it. She screams for fights." Neji shot a glance at the the bunned-girl.
"Tenten you gotta stop fighting with him!" Ino rolled her eyes.
"Besaides, T-tenten… you t-two are r-really sweet with each other…" Hinata smiled.
"We are not!"
Tenten glared at the Hyuga prodigy. But when no one was looking, they smiled at each other.
--
"What are we gonna do for food? I told you I'm hungry!" Naruto started whining again.
"Naruto." Sakura started getting impatient with the blond future-Hokage. "We are in a mall. We can eat anything that's in this mall as long as we know how to cook it."
"Unfortunately, I can't cook." Ino said.
"N-neither can I…" Hinata said shyly.
"Don't even think about asking me!" Tenten folded her arms against her chest.
"I can't even cook rice." Sakura admitted with a twinkle in her eyes.
"And you didn't even think of telling us this earlier during truth or dare?" Gaara stared at the girls.
"Well, you didn't ask!" Ino said defensively.
"What use are you girls if you don't know how to cook?" Sasuke rose an eyebrow at them.
"Tch, we can live!" Sakura rolled her eyes.
"Anyway, to make up for this weakness," Shikamaru stared at the girls, who glared back. "We have an exceptional cook in our group."
"Oh really?" Tenten sneered. "Don't tell me that Mr. Prodigy boy knows how to bake cookies!"
"Why you little-"
"Shut up!" Sasuke snarled at Neji.
"Gaara can cook as well as any girl. Obviously, not like you 4, but he can cook really good stuff." Shikamaru said.
"Really?" Ino raised her eyebrow at panda-boy.
"Oh!" Hinata's hand raised to her mouth. "I-I remember y-you! You were o-on TV b-because you h-had cooked s-something a-amazing!"
"You saw that?" Gaara grinned.
"O-of course I d-did, Hanabi l-loves watching cooking s-shows…" Hinata beamed at him.
"Oh, it was you?" Tenten smiled at him. "Yeah, I saw that too. What was it called? I remember it was a cake, or something."
"13 Layered Chocolate Paradise." Hinata said dreamily. "Hanabi w-was drooling a-all over the f-floor!"
"Enough about cake! We need real food." Neji murmured.
"Oh I f-forgot, N-Neji… You n-never told them?" Hinata grinned slyly.
"Don't tell them ANYTHING, Hinata! ANYTHING!" he said sharply, his face turning a hundred shades of red.
"Oh, Hinata, tell us please!!" Tenten had an evil grin on her face, and Neji didn't like it.
"Heeheeheehee…" Hinata apparently was remembring something that happened.
"Tell us tell us tell us!" Even Ino was on the verge of excitement.
"Don't you da-" Neji stopped speaking when Tenten went over to him, held both his arms behind his back, clamped her hand over his mouth, and held him like that. His eyes narrowed.
"Go on, Hinata."
"Mmmpmhmpmhmph!" Neji struggled under Tenten's hand.
"W-well… it all started when he w-was 7. It was his b-birthday, and it would be the f-first time h-he would have a-a cake for h-his birthday. S-so Hiashi ordered a 4 l-layered chocolate c-cake. A-and when N-Neji was about t-to blow out th-the candles-"
"MPMMMHMPPHMHPMHPHMH!" he mumbled even louder.
"Ew! Hinata hurry up, he's drooling on my hand!!" Tenten screeched, but didn't let go.
"So when Neji w-was going t-to blow out th-the candles, the w-wind shifted a-and the c-cake fell r-right on t-top of h-him! And i-it turned out that N-Neji was allergic t-to chocolate! He started sneezing a-and bloated u-up and then he s-started getting itchy…"
There was silence.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Neji why didn't you tell us that story?" Shikamaru clutched his sides and fell on the ground.
"H-H-Hinata!! You should've t-t-t-t-told us that earlier!!" Gaara was laughing so hard that he was having trouble speaking.
(A.N: Yes, it might be very, very miraculous if this happened in the anime and manga, but anyhting's possible!) "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA poor Neji!!" Sasuke started laughing and smiling and rolling all over the floor.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" Ino laughed.
"Yeow!!" Tenten screamed. Everyone stopped laughing at once.
"What's wrong, Tenny?" Sakura wiped tears (yes she was laughing so hard she was crying) from her emerald eyes, and looked concerned.
"Little chocolate-addict bit my hand!! I think I have rabies! Oh, ew!!" Tenten screamed.
"Hinata! You said you wouldn't tell anyone!!" Neji growled and stepped towards Hinata, who was having trouble on how to stop laughing.
"B-But… (hahaha) I was j-just (hahahaha) trying t-to put a g-g-ood mood…" she murmured, laughing in between.
"Ugh! Just forget it!" Neji stormed off.
They all looked at Tenten. "what?!" she said.
"You are they only one who can make him feel better, Tenten." Sakura stated.
"Oh, now that's not fair. Can't Naruto do anything? Hinata started it anyway." Tenten pouted.
"How did I get into this?" Naruto yelled. "Besides! I'm hungry! Believe it!"
"B-but he o-only listens t-to you…"
"How would you know?" Tenten said, surprised.
"Because h-he connects with y-you. N-Neji only fights with th-the people h-he loves…"
"Oooooooooh!" They all said in a teasing tone. Tenten blushed a dark red.
"Why do I have to go, though?" Tenten whined.
"Don't you get it, baka?!" Ino hit Tenten on the back of her head. ("Ow!") "He loves you, you oblivious girl!"
"He does?"
Everyone smacked their hands on their forehead.
"Honestly, Tenten, even I saw that." Naruto smirked.
"Yes, and you'd have to have the IQ of a lamp to NOT notice that he doesn't like you." Gaara yawned.
"And we (think) you like him too." Sasuke said, unfeeling.
"I. Do. Not." Tenten remembered the scene on the 5th floor. No one will ever know about that. Except for me and Neji.
"Are you going or not?"
