Chapter Six:

Damage Control:

"Hinata?" TenTen knocked on the front door - again.

"Go away." Came the muffled reply. TenTen sighed placing her forehead against the off white siding. This had been the norm for the last hour and a half:

She knocked; Hinata dry sobbed.

From the sound of it, her blue-haired friend was currently crumpled at the base of the very door the bun-haired girl had been pounding at since eight in the morning.

"Hinata, really," The brunette pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose, "You can't stay locked away in there forever."

"Watch me."

Okay, two word responses were really starting to get on her nerves. TenTen rolled her eyes.


It's ringing again... Hinata squealed, hiding her face in her palms. She curled tighter into her own little Hyuuga ball, trying in all desperation to block out the incessant noise. Between that damn ringing and TenTen pounding at the door every three minutes, she was just about ready to tear off her ears.

The phone had been jumping off the hook for the last two hours. One hour ago, her messaging machine reached it's limit on intakes and simply shut down, gurgling violently as it went.

Ring....Ring....Ring...

Hinata muffled her scream by pressing her head into her knees and burying her face beneath the collar of the sweat shirt she had thrown on earlier.

Ring....Ring....Riiiinnnnnnggggggg.....


"Alright," TenTen jumped at the sound of a foreign voice. She spun on her heel and was met with the glittering baby blues of Ino Yamanaka. "What's the sitch?" The blond stopped in front of TenTen and met her livid stare with a raised brow. "What?" She asked throwing her arms up.

"You were supposed to be here an hour ago." TenTen hissed pointing an accusing digit. "Where were you?" Ino scoffed tossing her long ponytail over her shoulder.

"I got a little....distracted is all." Was her brilliant excuse. The brunette's eyes flickered downward before looking heavenward contemptuously.

"Yeah, I can see that." She stated with a pointed glance. Ino followed her gaze and quickly covered her exposed cleavage with one hand, the other doing up buttons at an alarming speed. TenTen snorted. "Did you even catch his name?"

"Bite me." Ino spat only to be gifted in return with a cynical chuckle.

"I think he did enough of that already." Brown orbs lingered on the numerous hickeys spotting Ino's neck and chest before turning serious once more. "Your promiscuity aside, I do believe we have a problem on our hands."

"What is it this time?" Ino asked smoothing out the wrinkles marring her blouse and skirt. The very same blouse and skirt that she had worn yesterday and had been unable to change out of. She looked up just in time to see TenTen toss the morning Gazette into her face. "What the hell Ten?"

"Read." She stated flatly, motioning to the paper.

"Gai Maito Sets New Record for Longest Serenade Outside Girlfriend's Window?" Ino shrugged her shoulders in confusion. "What does that have to do with Hinata hermit-ing herself in her house?" TenTen closed her eyes and pinched her nose trying to stave off the looming headache that this particular morning was leading to.

"Other Side, Ino." She blatantly ignored the compulsion to palm-face herself.

"Oh....."Said 27 year old flipped the paper around, her eyes dancing down the page as she hummed a non-sensical tune. Blue orbs blinked.

........

And blinked again.

"Hm."The blond leveled a clueless gander at her friend. "Why would Hinata take out a personal ad?"

"She didn't," TenTen sighed, resisting the urge to strangle her friend of 21 years.

How she passed high school we will never know.......

Well actually the brunette did have a pretty good idea how, but what Ino did on and off her feet was a topic best left untouched for propriety sake.

"Okay," A well manicured hand, pushed TenTen aside, as Ino came to stand determinedly in front of the door.

"What are you doing?" The bun-haired girl asked, not even attempting to hide the wary panic in her eyes.

"Relax," The blond smiled confidently waving off the apprehension in her friends face, "I'm going to fix this." She cleared her throat, turning to face the door. "Hinata,"

A squeak erupted from within.

"Hinata, this is Ino."

"She's depressed Ino, not amnestic." TenTen crossed her arms and leaned against the wall, bored.

"Shut up!" The blond hissed before dropping back into her soft lilt. "Hinata, it's okay, sweetie. Everything is gonna be alright. Will you please open the door?"

"No!"

"I asked nicely." She brushed a strand of straw colored hair behind her ear.

"No!"

"Hinata, stop acting like a child." Ino's temper flickered before quickly disappearing beneath a tight smile. "Listen, what's done is done. At least whoever did this, did a nice job. The picture is very flattering." She nodded appreciatively.


Oh God, the picture.

How could she have possibly forgotten the picture, Hinata winced biting her bottom lip.

Where did they even get that picture?

--Extremely Small Flash Back--

It was three years ago, and Ino had decided to drag Hinata out to a party Halloween night. Of course Hinata didn't know until an hour before hand that she was even celebrating the holiday, let alone going on an outing and thus had to go buy a last second costume. And, naturally, the last costume the store had was a black-leather, skin-hugging Cat Women outfit, one size to small, complete with ears and tail. She spent the entire night hidden behind a pair of curtains struggling to breath and brushing off invitations to dance.

--End of Small Flash Back--

Hinata closed her eyes. She couldn't remember any one at the party hauling around a camera. But then again it was three years ago, and she was slightly tipsy from the punch.

Oh God. The blue-ette slapped a hand over her mouth groaning morosely. No wonder her father was 'redecorating' his study the WWF way at six in the morning. Everyone from Konoha to Land of Waves had seen that picture. She placed her head between her knees trying to stop the world from spinning.

I will not faint....I will not faint.....I will not faint.....


"Come on." Ino admonished flicking the paper open once more to gaze upon the pair of Hyuuga's. "You have to admit, your ad is way better than Neji's."

Hinata's poorly stifled a giggle seeped from beneath the crack of the door. Moments later the dead bolt was pulled back with a small

Click

Much to the relief of TenTen and Ino.

"See," The blond pulled back her shoulders proudly, "I told you I could fix it." She stuck her tongue out at TenTen before turning the handle and walking through the threshold. Said brunette simply shook her head following closely behind.

It's gonna take a lot more than that to fix this I'm afraid....


A/N: Yes this is mainly a filler chapter, but I couldn't get it out of my head. Finally I just told my brain 'Fine, I'll write it, Damn you!' And wala- here it is. Personally I kind of like it, even though it was written at 2 in the morning fueled only by pepsi and a granola bar..... It was nice to see some Ino, TenTen, Hinata interaction. But I would love to hear what you guys have to say, and you know what that means!

REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!

~Ambrosia

Oh and just in case you guys didn't catch that last part. Neji also has his own personal ad. That is what Granny Uchiha handed to Haru in chapter four: Sinister Plots. There will be a more specific description of the actual ad's as time goes on. But the important thing is, is that they were published.
