Naruko sat at the lunch table and sighed loudly. Lee and Chouji looked at her in confusion. Kiba laughed.

"Ack, what the heck was that for!" he yelled rubbing his arm where Naruko had pinched him.

"It's not funny you jerk, " Naruko said as she began banging her head against the table.

"What is wrong with our youthful friend?" asked Lee. Kiba just shook his head.

"She's in denial. She won't admit that she likes the Uchiha. Ack, would you quit it. It's true and you know it. Ouch!" Kiba cried out as Naruko smacked him upside his head and then stepped on his foot. Chouji and Lee started laughing and Shikamaru took a break from his nap to mumble something about troublesome crushes.

"Shut up Kiba. I do not like him. Besides, Sakura and her clones would probably kill me if I did." Kiba nodded mockingly.

"Yeah, sure, that's why when Kakashi paired you two up you were so happy and that's why you're going to his house after school." Kiba dodged a fist aimed at his face. Naruko growled at him and hmphed turning around and pouting.

"I do not like. I wasn't happy when Kakashi paired us up and I'm going to his house to discuss the project. Besides at least I'm going to his house. I haven't seen you even mention anything to Hinata that would prove that you have any interest in the project whatsoever." Naruko smirked as Kiba pouted and blushed slightly.

"Shut up," Kiba said.

"Shut don't go up, prices do, so take your own advice and shut up too," Naruko retorted. Kiba growled and slumped into his seat pouting.

Naruko walked up to where Sasuke was standing just outside the school gates. He turned and saw her and waved.

"Hey, you actually came," Sasuke said sarcastically. Naruko rolled her eyes and walked forward.

"Whatever, lets just get this over with already," she said irritated by the boy's boldness. Sasuke walked up beside her and guided her to the school parking lot. They walked up to a blue motorcycle. Naruko's eyes popped out of her head.

"Oh my gosh. Is this yours?" Sasuke smiled and nodded.

"Yeah, my parents bought it for me last year for my sixteenth birthday." Sasuke grabbed the helmet off the handle and handed it to Naruko. She took it and then looked at him as he got on the motorcycle.

"Hey, don't you need one?" she asked holding the helmet out to him. He shook his head and continued to get on.

"Nah, it's ok, I've ridden without one before and nothing happened to me yet so I'm pretty sure I'll be fine." Naruko shrugged and climbed on. Sasuke started it up and rode out of the parking lot slowly. Once he got on the road he sped up suddenly and Naruko jerked forward forcing her to cling to him harder.

"Hold on tight!" Sasuke yelled over the roar of the engine as he gunned it once again through a yellow light. Naruko held on tightly and squeezed her eyes shut.

'If I live through this I'll never take my life for granted again.'

Sasuke stopped the motorcycle in front of a massive mansion and got off. Naruko stumbled off and slumped to the ground and laid her head on the concrete sidewalk.

"Ahhhhh, land, I missed you so much," she cried kissing the ground tears cascading down her face. Sasuke turned to her and smirked.

"I'm guessing that tough girl act at school is just a façade." Naruko jumped up and scowled at him menacingly.

"Shut up. Let's just go ok." She marched up to the door of the house and waited while Sasuke opened the door with his key. They walked into the door and removed their shoes.

"I'm home!" Sasuke called out. A woman with long black hair pulled into a low neat ponytail walked out from the kitchen. She was wearing an apron and she had flour all over her shirt and some on her face. She smiled brightly.

"Hello Sasuke, who's your friend?" She walked over to them and held out a flour dusted hand to Naruko. "Hi, I'm Mikoto Uchiha, Sasuke's mom." Naruko smiled brightly and shook her hand.

"I'm Naruko Uzumaki, nice to meet you." Mikoto smiled. Suddenly something from the kitchen exploded.

"Oh, no, my cake. It was nice to meet you Naruko." Mikoto ran into the kitchen. Suddenly a large cloud of black smoke drifted from the kitchen into the living room. Sasuke and Naruko sweat dropped.

"Ok, that was weird, let's go up to my room and get this project done." Sasuke led Naruko up a flight of stairs and down a corridor to a door. He opened the door and they entered a large bedroom.

The walls were indigo and the ceiling was a light blue. There was a bed with blue bed sheets in one corner of the room. There was a couch near the door and a closet opposite the bed. There was a T.V. and a couple of game systems in front of the couch and a computer desk against the wall between the bed and the closet. Sasuke dropped his bag and sat down on the couch.

"So, what exactly does the paper tell us to do?" Naruko rolled her eyes and sat down on the couch next to him. She took out the paper from her notebook and read it out.

"It says that we are going to have a simulated wedding and that we have to choose a location on the school campus, we have to choose dates, decorations, bridesmaids, best men, print invitations, we even have to get caterers and a dress and a tux." Sasuke whistled.

"Wow, and we have to hand all these decisions by Monday?" Nauko nodded. "Well then let's get to work."
