Chapter 4: Recipe for Disaster

- - -

When Sakura and Naruto entered the house Sasuke was waiting at the dining room table with the others. However, the others were pigging out. They couldn't help it. The food was just too good.

-"Hola, Señor Naruto. Señora Sakura, la comida es preparada al la mesa." The maid informed. Naruto looked at Sakura.

-"Hello Sir Naruto and Madame Sakura, the food is prepared on the table." Sakura said. Naruto nodded and walked over to the table.

-"Where was she dobe?" Sasuke asked. Naruto took a moment to swallow his food.

-"She was near the water fountain near here." He said. Sasuke nodded and started eating his own food.

-"Sakura-chan, Ino, Tenten, Matsuri, and I are going out to see the town a little bit more after breakfast. Do you want to come with us?" Hinata asked. Sakura nodded.

-"I'd love to!" Sakura exclaimed.

-"We want to come too!" Neji said.

-"Too bad! This is girls' night only!" Tenten yelled.

-"How come we can't go with you guys?" Gaara asked.

-"Because we want to do some "things" while we're in town and we can't do it with you boys around!" Matsuri argued.

-"What kind of "things"?" Shikamaru asked.

-"None of your business!" Ino yelled.

-"Why do I have a feeling that I won't like it?" Sasuke asked.

-"Sasuke-kun, just let us have a little fun while we're gone. Okay?" Sakura asked. Sasuke rolled his eyes and sighed.

-"Fine. But if something happens you're never going to go out alone again." He said. The girls all nodded.

-"Where is Sai-kun?" Hinata asked noticing one person missing.

-"He's still sleeping." Shikamaru answered.

-"But it's past one o' clock!" Matsuri exclaimed. Naruto started whistling looking the other way.

-"Naruto. What did you do?" Gaara asked. Naruto didn't look at them.

-"Well this morning he was bothering me so I kind of…sort of…injected him with a needle that would knock him out for a couple of hours."

-"You idiot!" Sakura yelled before running upstairs to Sai's room.

-"Where'd you get an injection thingy?" Tenten asked.

-"I know a guy." He said.

-"A retarded guy." Sasuke said taking a quick bite of his sandwich. Naruto glared at him. Sakura came down the stairs.

-"He's still asleep but once he wakes up Naruto, you're going to be dead." Sakura said. Naruto gulped and looked down at his plate. Matsuri got up from her seat.

-"Well let's get going girls." She said walking to the door. Ino, Tenten, Hinata, and Sakura followed her.

-"Bye!" Sakura said before closing the door.

-"What should we do now?" Shikamaru asked.

-"Don't know." Neji said.

-"Same here." Gaara muttered.

-"Hn." Sasuke said.

-"Let's go to the Sesame Street festival right now!" Naruto said.

-"Forget it dobe." Sasuke said.

-"C'mon guys! It's not like we have anything better to do!" Naruto said. Gaara sighed.

-"Fine, we'll go! But I'm not going to enjoy this." The boys got and walked towards the door.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"Ugh! I can't ready any of these signs!" Ino yelled.

-"Ino, please clam down." Hinata said.

-"Don't you think you're overreacting a little?" Tenten asked. Ino perked up.

-"I know! Let's ask Sakura!" Ino looked around for Sakura. She spotted her at a food stand.

-"Forehead! Over here!" Ino yelled grabbing Sakura's wrist.

-"What do you want Ino? I was just about to eat something." Sakura asked.

-"Help us read the signs." Ino said.

-"Can you please help us Sakura-chan? I really want to buy something nice for Gaara-kun." Matsuri begged.

-"No."

-"Please?" Tenten asked.

-"No."

-"Pretty please Sakura-chan?" Hinata asked.

-"If I say 'yes' can I go back shopping on my own?" Sakura asked.

-"Uh-huh!" They said.

-"Ok then. What do you want for me to read?" Sakura asked. Ino pointed to a lot signs.

-"That one. That one. That one. And that one. What the heck? All of them!" Ino exclaimed. Sakura sweat dropped.

-"Right."

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"Dobe, where are you taking us?" Sasuke asked. Naruto looked down at the paper.

-"I know it's here somewhere." He said.

-"I'm starting to regret coming here with you." Shikamaru said.

-"If we get lost you're so dead." Neji growled.

-"Yeah Yeah Yeah." Naruto said.

-"What do you think the girls are doing?" Sasuke asked.

-"Who knows." Gaara said.

-"Maybe they're buying some pretty make-up with the cute eye shadow. They really go great on my--- what?" Shikamaru asked. Sasuke, Gaara, and Neji were staring at him.

-"Dude, are you…you know…gay?" Neji asked. Shikamaru turned red.

-"No! I've been hanging out with Ino too much! That's all!" He yelled.

-"Right." Sasuke smirked.

-"I found it!" Naruto yelled. The guys glared at him.

-"Idiot! This is a…"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"He is so cute!" Hinata exclaimed looking at cute little puppy she was holding.

-"La pera es gratis. Tu quieres llévalo a tu casa?" The lady asked.

-"Do want to take him? He's free." Sakura said looking down at the puppy.

-"Si!" Hinata said. The lady smiled.

-"Adios!" Sakura yelled when she and Hinata walked away.

-"He's really cute! What should we name him?" Hinata asked. Sakura shrugged. The puppy started to sniff around Hinata's bag. He jumped down and went inside the bag.

-"What's he doing?" Sakura asked.

-"I'm not sure." Hinata said. She opened up her beg and looked inside. She smiled. There was a container filled with ramen and the puppy was licking some of it that was spilling.

-"I think we found his name." Sakura smirked. Hinata giggled.

-"His name will be 'Ramen'," She said.

-"Naruto will be so happy." Sakura said. Hinata nodded.

-"Let's go buy a collar for him!" She said taking Sakura to a store.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"…Toy store!" The guys yelled at Naruto.

-"What's wrong with a toy store?" Naruto asked.

-"We're 16 and shopping for toys is something we grow out of!" Shikamaru yelled.

-"Idiot!" Sasuke yelled too. Neji and Gaara twitched.

-"Who cares? We're in Spain and no one from our school is going to see us." Naruto assured them.

-"How do you know?" Gaara asked.

-"I just do." Naruto said.

-"That helps." Neji said sarcastically.

-"I'm going shopping on my own." Sasuke said walking.

-"Why do you always have to leave Teme?!" Naruto asked. Sasuke didn't answer.

-"Fine! Leave for all I care! You're going to miss Elmo doing his happy dance!" Naruto yelled.

-"Don't care!" Sasuke yelled.

-"Yeah, we're leaving too." Neji said. Shikamaru and Gaara followed him too.

-"I'm alone!" Naruto yelled going into the store.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"This cake is so delicious!" Tenten exclaimed. The girls were in a bakery and Tenten wanted to try a piece of Angel Cake. (Different Kind)

-"Let me try!" Sakura said taking a bite. Ino, Hinata, and Matsuri each took a bite too. Ino tried to grab another but Tenten slapped her hand way.

-"Hey! Hands off my cake!" Tenten yelled. Ino rubbed her hands.

-"You didn't have to slap my hands." Ino. Matsuri tried to also grab another.

-"No touchy!" Tenten said slapping her hand too. The cake was then finished by Tenten. Ino and Matsuri cried anime tears because they wanted another bite.

-"Can we buy another?" Hinata asked.

-"We wasted all our money on other stuff. We don't have enough to buy another pastry." Sakura said sadly.

-"Why don't we ask for the recipe and make it at home for the boys as a surprise?" Hinata suggested.

-"That's a brilliant plan!" Matsuri exclaimed. Ramen barked happily.

-"I still don't get why you named him 'Ramen'," Tenten scratched Ramen's ear.

-"Because when I bought him, he liked the ramen inside the container I had in my bag." Hinata said.

-"I know. But still…Ramen?" Tenten said.

-"Let it go Tenten." Matsuri said.

-"I'm going to ask for the recipe." Sakura said as she walked up to the baker.

-"You know, once we get back to Konoha, Kiba will be happy that Akamaru will have a friend." Hinata said.

-"Did you guys know that he has a crush on Sakura?" Tenten asked.

-"Really? I didn't know." Ino said. Tenten nodded.

-"I got the recipe!" Sakura yelled waving a piece of paper in the air.

-"Great! Now let's get back home to make it!" Ino said skipping out of the store.

-"She is really excited." Matsuri sweat dropped.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"I'm glad we're at home now." Neji said sitting down on the couch. Sai was sitting on the couch too watching TV.

-"When did you wake up?" Sasuke asked.

-"Five minutes ago." Sai answered.

-"At least you didn't have to put up with Naruto." Shikamaru said.

-"What'd he do this time?" Sai asked.

-"He wanted us to go to the toy store with him." Gaara said. Sai rolled his eyes.

-"Typical Dickless." He said. The door opened and Naruto walked into the living room. His clothes were torn, his hair was messed up, and he was covered in dirt.

-"Dude. What happened to you?" Gaara asked.

-"When I was trying to get the DVD set of Sesame Street, a little kid grabbed it from me and then I took it back. He started crying so his mom came over and started beating me up. It was torture." Naruto lied down on the couch and groaned in pain. Shikamaru let out a sigh of relief.

-"I'm sure glad we didn't go there." He said. Naruto was too tired to answer back. The front door opened again and the girls walked in. Sakura was holding Ramen in her arms this time.

-"Who's that?" Sasuke asked pointing to Ramen. Sakura giggled as Ramen licked her face.

-"This is Ramen. Hinata's new pet puppy." Matsuri said. Naruto lifted himself up.

-Did someone say ramen?" he asked. Sakura gave the puppy to Naruto.

-"Naruto, meet Ramen." She said. Naruto and the puppy looked at each other. Then Ramen jumped on Naruto and began licking his face. He chuckled.

-"I like this puppy." He said.

-"Great, now two idiots in the house." Ramen stopped licking and growled at Sasuke. He jumped on Sasuke and started scratching him. Sakura was laughing her ass off. Sasuke was screaming like a girl running around.

-"Get this dog off me!" He yelled. Sakura took out her video camera and taped it.

-"This is definitely going on TV." Sakura said. Sasuke glared at her.

-"Sakura, just don't stand there! Help me!" Sasuke yelled. Sakura rolled her eyes and took Ramen off Sasuke. She patted Ramen's head.

-"Good boy." She smiled. Sasuke glared at the puppy.

-"Jeez Sasuke-kun, I think animals don't like you." Sakura said Everybody laughed. Sasuke crossed his arms and sat back down on the couch.

-"Stupid dog." He muttered. Ramen barked and jumped onto Naruto's lap. Sasuke stayed away from Ramen.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-'Ok! Do we have all the ingredients for the cake?" Sakura asked. She tossed the girls aprons. They wanted to make the boys the cake for them. And they were going to use the recipe the baker gave Sakura.

-"Hinata, are the bys in living room?" Sakura asked. Hinata looked and nodded.

-"Good, we can't have them knowing what we're making." Matsuri said.

-"Pass me the flour!" Ino yelled. Tenten gave her the flour. Ino's cell then started ringing. Ino picked it up.

-"Hello?" She asked. "Oh hey mom!"

-"Ino! You're supposed to be paying attention!" Tenten hissed. Ino ignored her. Tenten got really mad.

-"Forget her! Toss me an egg!" Matsuri said. Tenten threw her one but it landed on the floor.

-"Not literally!" Matsuri yelled.

-"Then why did you saw 'Toss me an egg'?" Tenten asked.

-"Just an expression!" Matsuri yelled.

-"Ok sorry! Just stop yelling at me!" Tenten yelled back.

-"Can we please stop yelling?" Hinata asked.

-"Stay out of this!" They both yelled. Tears formed around Hinata's eyes but then she got angry.

-"Nobody ever tells me what to do!" She yelled. Sakura sweat dropped. Tenten and Matsuri stopped yelling and got scared.

-"When did she ever get this scary?" Matsuri asked whispering in Tenten's ears. Tenten only shrugged.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"What do you think they're doing in there?" Shikamaru asked covering his ears.

-"Do they ever shut up?" Sasuke asked.

-"I wouldn't say that if I were you Uchiha." Gaara said.

-"Why?" Sasuke asked.

-"Because one time I said that in front of Sakura and the next thing I knew, I was pinned to the wall with pencils." Gaara shuddered at the memory.

-"Pencils?" Neji asked.

-"Pencils. They weren't even sharpened."

-"So does that mean we should never tell Sakura-chan to shut up?" Naruto asked.

-"I guess that what he means." Sasuke said. Sai was sleeping. Ramen was asleep right next to him. Sasuke stared at Ramen.

-"That little devil is going to pay for biting me." Sasuke said. Ramen growled in his sleep. Sasuke yelped and ran upstairs.

-"This is really going to be fun." Naruto said looking at the picture he took of Sasuke when he yelped.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"Where is the mixer?" Sakura asked looking everywhere. Her face had some flour blotches. Ino was still on her phone.

-"Ino! Come and helps us!" Matsuri yelled. Ino rolled her eyes.

-"Just give me five more minutes!" She yelled.

-"Found the mixer!" Hinata exclaimed giving the mixer to Sakura.

-"Here Ino, try and help us." Sakura handed the mixer to Ino. She took and placed it in the bowl. Ino switched it on but the mixer was on too high so some of the batter was flying everywhere. The girls shrieked.

-"Ino! You have it on too high!" Tenten yelled. Ino hung up on her phone and switched it off.

-"Sorry." She said. Tenten snatched the mixer away from Ino's hands.

-"Sorry my ass!" She yelled.

-"Is it safe to come out?" Hinata asked coming up from under the table. Sakura and Matsuri also came out. The batter was all over the walls and the girls were covered in it too. Matsuri then started laughing so hard that she was rolling on the floor.

-"What's so funny?" Sakura asked.

-"Us."

-"Huh?" They were confused. Matsuri wiped away the tears that were coming out of her eyes and sat up.

-"We look so funny covered in cake batter." They looked at each other and then they began laughing too. Hinata stopped laughing and looked around.

-"Maybe we should start finishing the cake now." She suggested. They all nodded and started finishing up the remaining steps for the cake.

-"Done! Now we can just wait for the cake to bake!" Ino exclaimed as Hinata placed the cake inside the oven.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Half an Hour later…

-"Time to take the cake out!" Sakura exclaimed. Tenten took it out and stared at it. The cake was half burned and was not like the one they had at the bakery. Tenten glared at it and set it down on the table.

-"Ino! What the heck did you put in this dessert?" Tenten asked. Ino shrugged.

-"I don't know!" Ino yelled.

-"Guys." Hinata said.

-"Not now Hinata. I don't know what the hell you put in this dessert!" Tenten yelled.

-"Well sorry! How am I supposed to be talking on the phone while watching what I'm putting into a dessert?" Ino yelled back.

-"Guys." Sakura said.

-"But maybe you shouldn't be talking on the phone!" Tenten yelled.

-"Guys." Matsuri said.

-"What do you want?!" Tenten and Ino asked.

-"The cake is gonna blow!" Matsuri pointed.

-"What?" But it was too late. The cake blew up and it went onto the walls and onto the girls. The girls screamed. It was just like the batter but it was worse.

-"Ugh! I'm so sticky!" Sakura yelled touching her hair.

-"What just happened?" Hinata asked.

-"The cake blew up. But how?" Ino asked.

-"Maybe it was what Ino put in." Tenten said. Ino glared at her.

-"Just stop fighting! Ok?" Matsuri said. Tenten and Ino glared at each other one more time and then sighed.

-"The whole kitchen is a mess and now we need to make another cake." Sakura said.

-"But how are we going to do all that within one hour?" Tenten asked. Ino smirked.

-"I've got an idea."

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"Do you think they are ok?" Sasuke asked. Gaara looked at the kitchen doors.

-"It was weird how they screamed two times already." He said.

-"Do you want to check on them?" Shikamaru asked. No one volunteered.

-"I'm too scared." Naruto said ducking his head.

-"Baby." Sai muttered. The kitchen door flew open and the girls came out. The boys twitched at how they were covered in batter.

-"Time to eat!" Ino exclaimed. The boys stood and sat down in the dining room chairs. Sakura each handed them a plate with piece of something.

-"What is this?" Neji asked.

-"Just a little something we made from us to you." Tenten said smiling. The boys gulped and each one of them took a bite.

-"This is delicious!" Sasuke yelled digging in for another. The girls did a high five. A few pieces fell to the floor and Ramen ate them.

-"By the way, what are you guys covered in?" Sai asked.

-'Batter and…some of that cake." Matsuri answered.

-"Why'd you scream though?" Naruto asked.

-"We were just having a…blast!" Sakura laughed nervously.

-"Ok."

-"Well we're off to take a bath. Bye!" Hinata said taking them upstairs. The boys were too busy taking bites out of the cake.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"Ahhhh. This is so relaxing." Sakura said. Steam was rising up.

-"I'm so glad to take this sticky stuff off." Ino said. Hinata, Tenten, and Matsuri nodded. They were all in the bathtub. (It's HUGE)

-"At least the guys liked our cake." Hinata smiled.

-"I hope they don't find out that it actually exploded." Tenten said.

-"I doubt they will." Matsuri said.

-"She's right. Now let's just relax. Girls Day Out doesn't come everyday, does it?" Sakura asked. They all shook their heads.

-"See? Now let's just enjoy while it lasts." Sakura leaned her head back. Today was fun. But just one thing that just can't leave my mind. Who was that boy? Sakura thought.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

-"Um…My name is Naruto." He said.

-"This is the worst Spanish lesson ever." He muttered.
