Disclaimers: Naruto don't belong to me. Oh how I wish it did
This story is about seven crazy, wild teen girls (Sakura, Ino, Hinata, Tenten, Temari, Matsuri, Karin) as best friends doing the craziest of things that friends would do together. Their dares are crazy, their 'fun time' is insane and their games are insanely crazy. (Couples that may eventually happen are: SasuSaku, InoSai, NaruHina, NejiTen, ShikaTem, GaaraMatsu, KarinSuigetsu.)
A/N: WOW I was so tiered when I got home last night and I got up early this morning to start typing what I have wrote (pen and paper) when I was at my cousin. They don't have a computer so I had to write my stuff down 'old fashion way' lol. I would have typed it up on my phone but silly me, I forgot my charger home and the battery was low :/ my hand hurts...but it's worth it :) because I know that you guys would read and appreciate my (none professional work :P ).
(Now that I have a new laptop to work with I have been editing and making corrections to what I have missed the last time I edited)
"Do you feel like you're being watched?" Hinata asked Sakura, they we're at a min-mat getting grocery for their slumber party that they were having that very evening. They had split up into groups of two and three to search for whatever tasty goodies they need.
"No, not really why do you ask, got a stalker?" Sakura asked putting a can of wipe cream into her basket. This was a strange question to ask but Hinata was like this with her superstations and her precautions with everything they did. She didn't think much of it though, Ino had thought she was being stalked for a week and it turned out to be nothing but her imagination.
Hinata gathered her words carefully before speaking, she didn't know exactly how to explain herself but she still tried. "Well, I don't know but sometimes when we're out having fun or whatever I feel like someone's there but there's no one there, at least not in my line of view..." She started babbling, still unsure of how to explain herself but, Sakura understood her. The pink hair girl nod letting her know that she didn't need to explain herself any further.
"Yea there have been time's I felt like that when I'm with you guys but it's been a very long time now I haven't felt that way, it could all be in our head you know, do I have to remind you about Ino." Sakura verified tucking a strand of pink hair behind her ear with a little laugh, Hinata chuckled at the memory.
"Hinata when was the last time you've spoken to Naruto?" Sakura suddenly asked, taking Hinata by surprise, immediately a blush spreads itself across her pale face, his cheerful handsome face floated around her mind. "I – I can't remember, a f – few days before we met T – Temari_chan?" She cursed herself for stuttering; just thinking of the guy makes her nervous. She honestly couldn't contain herself when he was around or was broth up.
"Well you should call him up and talk to him or something, yesterday night I was talking to Sasuke_kun and he called me to ask about you and stuff. He has been complaining the he's not getting to see you regularly since school is out and that he isn't getting to talk to you as much and it's giving me a headache." Sakura sounded annoyed; she didn't like being disturbed when it came to Sasuke, unless it's important.
Sakura and Sasuke hanged out allot when she wasn't with her friends she was with him, after all they lived next door to each other. "He – he did...oh, I should call him, but I've been so busy with you guys...I assumed he'd be busy to." She blushed looking behind her curiously; she could feel eyes on her back and felt uncomfortable about it.
"Let's go meet up with the others." She whispered, Sakura didn't question her and just followed her to another lane in the store.
...
"Ewwwwww, Tenten another chocolate and you'd get fat, how are you not fat by the way, you eat so much junk and chocolate, it's not fair though, if I ate half of what you eat I'd blow up." Ino scold while tapping her flat stomach comparing it to Tenten's, in Tenten's basket were chocolate everything only one pan of pretzels, which she'd dip in the chocolate cream she bought.
The blonde was envious of the brunette in that way and when she felt like it, Tenten would rub it in her face, just because she could. What were best friends for, right.
"Stinky Ino not everyone is veggie here veggie there like you, oh, beside I have a fast metabolism, people with fast are just naturally slim yafeelme." Tenten stated loudly, Karin clogged her ears...her aching ears, Tenten and Ino has been at it for, well since their group had split up. She whish she had gone with one of the others instead.
She had silently agreed to let Matsuri and Temari get some alone time and Sakura and Hinata wasn't going the way she wanted to so she strolled of with these two maniacs. "Shut up, shut up, shut up, just shut the hell up!" She screamed at them, people around them stared in surprise at her outburst and looked away when she glared at them.
Ino and Tenten got quiet and continued to gather what they needed. Karin felt bad after a while she didn't mean anything serious; both girls hadn't spoke or look at her. "Guys I'm sorry, I just have a headache that's all, forgive me pwwwease forgive red." Tenten smiled at her but Ino rolled her eyes and walked off without a word. Karin frowned, they were having a sleep over tonight, it wouldn't be fun if they were not talking. She had to fix this.
"Ino...Ino stop being so mean, she apologised and it's not like she is the first one of us who had a out bust...besides you're usually the one to scream at us all the time, so don't be this way." Ino turned around and glared hard at Tenten who bite her tongue to stop talking. Ino walked up to them and began...singing. "Yo! My best friend, best friend till the very end cause best friends best friends don't have to pretend, you need a hand and I'm right there right beside you. You in the dark, I'll be the light to guide you."
Karin walked up closer grinning and joined in, people once more started looking at them like they were crazy, wild kids. "Member the time-time-time sneaking out the house. All the time-time-times you had your doubts. And don't forget all the trouble we got into. We got something you can't undo-do." Tenten was glad she knew the lyrics to 'Cher Lloyed' song 'Oath' so she began singing, joining arm's with her best friends.
Hey, you were young teenage girls once in your life time so why not do the little crazy things that were fun with your best friends, no matter who was watching.
...
Temari and Matsuri had left the other's to wonder on their own so they could catch up on things. Both of them were grateful to the others for understanding and giving them some space to talk.
"Tem, I'm sorry if they're little too crazy for you but they are great girls that never turn their back on you no matter what, you'd get use to them, trust me on that." Matsuri felt like she had to say that to her blonde friend. She didn't want her to think less about her friends because of the crazy things they had her doing.
"I know, they are my friends to you know, I feel as if I know them like forever now and it's only been a few days, I trust them and that's why I do these tasks, besides you'll go easy on me right." She asked, Matsuri just grins and kept quiet. Temari's smile dropped at this, she grimace.
"Mat, right, right, you'll go easy on me rrrrrrright." Temari poked her friend's forehead lightly and giggled. "Maybe, maybe not, it's nothing personal Tem just tasks." She snorted when Temari gapped her mouth wide opened like she was catching flies, that wasn't what the girl wanted to hear.
Both girls stop and stared when Hinata and Sakura passed them laughing like four year olds. Sakura sitting in the shopping cart/trolley holding on for her life dear while, surprisingly, Hinata was pushing it as fast as she could.
Then Ino, Tenten and Karin passed by skipping like girly girls sing loudly, holding each other's hand in links. "Well you don't see that everyday unless you're in our group." Temari giggled and looked at Matsuri who was stooping in the ground clutching her stomach. "Mats are you ok..." But she stopped when Matsuri began laughing loudly.
They were lucky they didn't get kick out for disturbing the other customers and for misusing the grocery store property. But they did get a warning for what they did and they had to stop and apologise for doing it, but they only did that because their parents we're regular customers at this store.
...
Spread out in Karin's living room munching on their snacks they had bought, looking at a stand up comedy show featuring Jeff Dunham and his poppet Achmed. They were so caught up in the jokes that were being told none of them notice when Hinata answered her phone and sneaked out to meet a special someone.
"Hinata, hey can we talk?" Ruzo asked, he, a tall black hair guy, knew Hinata because of her father. He was a friend of her father son; they Hinata and Ruzo meet because of Hinata's family often had dinner with Ruzo Zuku's family but that had stopped when her mother had passed away. "Sure but...um...let's go somewhere warm, it's pretty cold out here."
The boy nod and allowed her to lead the way. Hinata thought she'd just be a little while and sneak back in before anyone notices that she was gone. She didn't want them to know because they'd just teas her about it and then tell Naruto about Ruzo to make him jealous.
She didn't think Naruto would get jealous over her talking to a guy, he never got jealous when she talked to other guys in or out of their group at school. At least she didn't think he did, and even if he did it'll just make problems she didn't want to deal with.
She trusted Ruzo, even if she hadn't talked to him in a while, she could tell that he hadn't changed much. So she walked slowly with him next to her, she knew exactly where they could go to sit and talk out of this cold and in a place they wouldn't be disturbed.
Ruzo had something important to tell her or else he wouldn't have just called her up in the night to want to just talk and catch up.
...
A few houses away from Karin's house they sat at a table for four in a small dinner and bar restaurant. "I'm in trouble." Ruzo muttered looking anywhere but at her pearl eyes. She knew it was important but she didn't expect this from him. He fiddled with his hands and his breathing was audible, a sign of nerviness Hinata noted.
"W-what? How come?" She asked surprise, Ruzo wasn't the type to get into trouble; he's more of a quiet, clam person that would rather read a book than get into a disagreement with someone let alone a fight, so what could he have done to get himself into trouble?
And why was he coming to her, sure she was his friend but there was only so much she could do depending on his situation really, or maybe he wanted advise? But why her and why so suddenly, when they hadn't have a good conversation in so many years. All sorts of questions swan through her head in the little time he had taken to before answering her question.
"I messed with one of my dad's business clients; it's off now, the deal they made. They weren't good people. But dad thought otherwise, he's going to send me away to Boarding School... I've...this may sound...sudden, weird but...I've been watching you for a while now, you and your friends." He explained, Hinata knew she felt someone watching her. She didn't think it was him though; this was kind of awkward now. She didn't know what to say to that so she just nudged his hand to encourage him to continue.
"Well you see...I like you...allot and I want to know how you feel about me. Because I'm leaving, soon and well... if you return my feeling come with me, if you don't well..." He trailed of his grey eyes held her pearl ones in one place, she was shocked at his confession, she would have never thought this would be happen when she agred to meet with him. She thought it was awkward before but now she just wanted to shrink in her seat and become invisible.
"Ruzo, you can't leave it'll make things worse, please how'd you...where would you stay or go?" she asked completely avoiding his real question, she couldn't give him what he wanted, not now, not ever. And she didn't know how to answer him at this moment, she needed time to think.
She never saw him more than a friend and she doesn't think she could see him as more than that. He's an attractive person she would admit that, he's also a sweet guy but she had many attractive guy friends who had great personality but she could not see them more than just friends and same goes for Ruzo.
"Hinata I have money and a place, everything is already organise and in place, except for you...that's why I've been watching you, I've wanted to ask you for a while now, but I never got the right chance to do so." He motions the waiter their way and ordered two Margarita drinks.
She didn't want to hurt him.
"But why now then, why of all time now?" Hinata wasn't only curious to why he was asking now but, she was putting her answer together in her head and needed more time. So she was buying some with these questions.
"Because I'm running out of time, soon dad will send me away. It was hard being away from you for so long but I always thought that we'd meet again...I never thought this would happen...that's why... I'm leaving tomorrow; tell me will you come with me, do you like me?" Ruzo found it hard to look into her eyes when a small hint of panic washed over her face. He already knew her answer now, just by her look he knew what was coming and prepared himself for disappointment.
She knew he knew when her eyes met his.
"Ruzo, please, I can't leave and...My heart belongs to someone else; ever since I was young I...loved him." She finishes hesitating a little, she wasn't sure if she should of said that. She didn't like lying to him, it didn't make sense telling him otherwise and giving his false hope. He didn't say anything after that and that made her feel like a horrible person, did she do the right thing?
...
"Hey guys, have you seen Hina_chan anywhere, it's been a while now I noticed she's missing...I thought she went for a bathroom break but no one can be that long in there right." Matsuri pointed out to her giggling friends, they all looked at each other and then around the room. She was indeed missing but where could she be. None of them knew, but they knew they had to look for her, now.
They had searched the house but she wasn't there.
Putting on clothes that were appropriate for outside, they walked out to look for their dear friend. The whole situation was so sudden and unexpected to the girls. Hinata wasn't the type of girl to just get up and leave like this.
"Ahhhh she better have a good reason for running away or I'll whip her." Tenten groaned, she was enjoying their little marathon on Jeff Dunham. But she was just covering up her wordiness.
They decided to split into two's to do their searching; it'll be faster that way. Sakura and Temari had left to go to the park near by Sakura's house. Ino and Matsuri had left to wonder around the opened places/stores nearby and Tenten and Karin stood near to the house in case she returned.
"She's not answering her phone, what if she's in trouble?" Sakura asked Temari, both girls had worried expressions on their faces. "She'll be ok." Temari assured Sakura and she believed what she was saying because Hinata is defiantly not a stupid person who'd get herself into trouble like that.
...
"Oh, ok well I should go then, you know...I though you felt the same way...at least sometimes I felt like that." His eyes were sort of glassy from the tears gathering in them, this didn't help the petty girl feel any better.
She was eating herself up with guilt and sorrow for her friend. "I'm sorry." Was all she could say, she never found herself in a position like this before because of her shyness she was never really notice by guys especially when she was with her friends. They were always the fun type; if it weren't for them she'd never have as many friends like she did.
She'd never been the way she is today and she liked the way she have become and still she was growing bolder with her best friends every day.
Looking up her eyes meet familiar blue ones, her mouth formed a small circle and her heart beat speed up. The person walked up to her and glared at Ruzo then stared at her.
...
Matsuri had called her friends and linked the call, so that they could all speak to and hear each other. "No she's not here its empty." Temari spoke, they were still at the park and Sakura was eating her nails now.
"She haven't come back home and she's still not answering my calls, its going straight to voicemail!" Karin complained loudly, even though she had the phone on loud speaker out of nervousness she had placed the phone by her ear.
Tenten wanting to hear as well pulled it away and held it close to them so they both will hear well.
"We're still looking, we found Naruto eating ramen and he went off to look for her after we told him." Ino informed her friends, wanting all of them to be on the same page.
...
"Naruto_kun, w-what are y-you doing here?" She wanted to smack herself on the head for stuttering in front of him. But if she started doing that now there will be no end to it because she could not help but get nervous around the guy.
"I could ask you the same Hinata_chan, who's this guy?" Naruto asked in a bitter tone but concern at the same time. "Ruzo, who are you?" Ruzo's glare was as equal as Naruto's. She bit her lip at the growing tesnsion between the two.
"Naruto." He spoke but turned to look at Hinata ignoring Ruzo. "Your friends have been looking for you, you should tell them where you are and that you're safe, I'll leave you two alone now." Naruto turned away to leave anger boiling in his stomach, but a small warm hand grabbed his and an angelic voice reached his ear stopping him dead in his tracks.
"No stay it's ok." She whispered but both guys heard her all too well, Ruzo smirked knowingly and got up.
"I'm going, I have to...finish packing, see you whenever I do Hinata, It's been great knowing you as a 'friend' bye." He stressed on the word 'friend' to assure Naruto and left. Hinata was too busy fighting herself about why she had held Naruto's hand in front of Ruzo and when she came to her senses he was all ready gone.
...
Ino and Matsuri found Hinata and Naruto talking and drinking coffee together, they were happy to see Hinata safe and happy. Hinata had explained to Naruto about Ruzo's problem because she felt like she had to tell him everything...except how she felt about him.
Ino had scold Hinata more than the other girls had about leaving without telling anyone. They then left Naruto to resumed their slumber party with prank calling, watching chick- flick movies, food fights and sleeping on Karin's fluffy, red carpet. Even though Hinata smiled with everyone she felt a nagging feeling in her stomach, she wasn't going to see Ruzo any time soon.
And she had broken his heart.
...
The next day was also spent lazing around Karin's house. The place was extra hot and the girls laid under a shady tree in the back yard and relaxed in their shorts and strap tops. "Before school re-opens we have to go on a road trip, I mean it." Tenten suggested fanning herself with her hands in a desperate attempt to cool herself down.
"Yea, that sounds like a plan but honestly I think we should continue our tasks for Tem first. Then we can go on a road trip." Sakura protested she wanted her turn to 'test' Temari, they decided to go on with their task, just like Sakura wanted and pick the next person with a game of 'pick the stick'. Of course Matsuri had come up with the name.
...
Sakura, Tenten and Matsuri choose wisely as if their lives depended on it. All eyes shot to the person who got the shortest stick. Said person froze at first but then grinned and her other two competitors sulked and envied her at the moment. She held the stick up in the air as if it was the greatest thing in the world and did a victory dance.
