H&H Designs
Hiya, Goody here with Chapter 7 of H&H Designs! I'm really sorry that this story has been hiatus for way too long but some of you probably have noticed that I fixed some of the chapters by spacing them out a bit so yeah…I really don't have an excuse for never updating except for my own laziness and unmotivated ass so I hope you all like this chapter!
For all my loyal reviewers that used to really enjoy this story, I hope you find it again or have it faved or subscribed because I'm going to try and make it as epic as possible for your enjoyment! :)

Chapter 7: Balls and Small Victories
Normal Point of View
Previously:
As Naruto recovered and Hinata laughed soundlessly, the phone rang. The caller was the one man she hated as of yet, which was because it wielded the name Iwa, Deidara…oh hell.
"Er, Sakura..?"
Presently:
Sakura gaped at the balls the blonde must have, seriously! Calling the girl that he was plotting against and having that timid, almost considered sweet voice…such a fucking dumbass!
The emerald eyed Haruno just scowled at the phone in disgust, contemplating whether or not just to hang up the damn phone without even answering.
"Uhh, hello, un?" Deidara asked again, now on speaker since Sakura pressed the button as soon as she heard his now despised, though still attractive, voice.
With Hinata gesturing for her to at least respond, the pink-haired girl just sighed inwardly and said a much hatred-coated, "Hi." In the most sarcastically happy voice ever through gritted teeth.
Well, what more could you expect? It's not like she was ever actually good at controlling her feelings, especially ones that consisted of castrating thoughts.
"Um, something wrong, un?" Deidara said in a mock-oblivious tone that made the three twenty-year old listeners' blood boil.
Sakura concentrated on calming down for a moment before for saying a calm, straightforward, "No? What's wrong?"
"I don't know, you just sound pissed or something, un." The blue-eyed guy said, still unsure of the pinkette's mood.
From where she sat on the counter, she could see Hinata's constantly rolling eyes with each thing the dumbass idiot said and Naruto glaring at the phone like the blonde was expected to leap through the speakers and be prepared to get the shit beat out of him.
"I don't know what you're talking about…it's probably the signal since we're talking long distance. Whatcha calling for?" Sakura said in the direction of the phone which was lying on the countertop a few inches away.
"Did I happen to drop something at your house when I was there, un?" He said in an antsy, almost dreading voice since there was a possibility he had screwed up in his plan, which he had.
But of course, Sakura being Sakura she says, "No, what do you think you left?"
This earned a smirk from Naruto and Hinata both as Sakura cheered inwardly at her own evilness and her ability to try and string out information from people.
"It was just a paper, un. Something I wrote for the co-star of the movie…" Deidara stated still uncertain of how this bringing up of the note would play out.
He knew he couldn't risk letting her read it, that being the worst possible scenario (yet he doesn't know she already has and is plotting a damn sure-fire revenge on his ass) and probably his death wish.
"Oh really? Well I haven't seen it lying around the house, you sure you lost it here?" Sakura played along as the oblivious trying-to-be-helpful friend.
You could almost sense the anticipation radiating from everyone's bodies as they awaited Deidara's dumb reply; the other two in the house crowding around the phone trying to make the blonde even more paranoid by staring at him unknowingly.
"Ah, I guess I probably lost it somewhere else, oh well. Sorry for bugging you Sakura-chan…" He paused as if contemplating a decision really quickly before asking, "You wanna come out tonight and go to dinner with me and the guys? Hinata can come along too if she wants."
'Oh touché, the jerk off…playing with my mind, are you?' She thought darkly, taking into account that it will be free food and possibly another opportunity to distract Deidara while the guys and Hinata can do the sabotage.
'I don't wanna miss out on the plan though!' Her Inner loudly interrupted, being a bitch as always against Sakura's decisions.
'Shut. Up. This will be the perfect opening to really do some damage!' Sakura concluded, her mind already made up.
"Okay, sure! Sounds fine to me but Hinata can't make it because her and Naruto are going out tonight along with some friends. I guess I could cancel on them since it would've probably been crowded anyways." She swiftly replied, cackling internally at her bitch-proof plan to screw over their movie production and thus delay the release date and all their beloved fans shall hate them!
"Haha, great, un! Me and the guys will stop by at ten to pick you up, m'kay, un?" The blonde, still oblivious to the plan, rejoices at his small victory.
Meanwhile, Hinata, Naruto, and Sakura feasted upon their own brilliant win that could possibly give them the upper hand! It was a win, win, and then lose situation!
Deidara and the bitch Ino being the losers that is since failure was no longer an option and if it somehow did turn out as a failure…jail wouldn't be too harsh, right?
"Yeah, what's the occasion, by the way? Casual, formal, party…?" The pinkette asked in a sweet, totally fake and superficial voice that could, and was, easily mistaken for sincerity.
"Party, definitely un." He smirked, being the pervert that Sakura and everyone else always knew he was.
Sakura picked up the phone from the counter and pressed the speaker button off as she couldn't help the toothy grin that worked its way onto her face.
"Fine, I'll go pick out a dress and get ready, Deidara. Talk to you soon then." She smiled into the phone, while casting a wink over in Hinata's direction to signal that all was set.
"Bye, Sakura-chan, un." Deidara said smoothly, his accent all the while heard.
"Yeah, bye." Sakura said before finally hanging up the phone in victory as she fell uncharacteristically onto the tiled floor laughing her ass off at how well she played him up.
"Holy…shit, did things just get a whole lot easier or what!" Hinata yay-ed to her friends as she grabbed Sakura's arm and hefted her up onto her feet.
Together, all three of them started to do a little victory dance around the island in the kitchen laughing and cheering like idiots who just won the lottery.
After a while, the hyper trio stopped when Sakura came to a standstill, turning to Naruto before saying, "What are you doing baka? Call up Shikamaru, Kiba, and Shino! Shino can get some bugs and place them in the air vents and maybe some lice in Ino's hair extension, some fleas to go into their clothes, and all that!"
Naruto whipped out his bright orange cell phone and nodded towards Sakura in agreement while Hinata and Sakura began to leave the room; Sakura swiping the note from the counter and putting it in the pocket of her pj bottoms.
"So, Sakura-chan…you're going to distract them and everything? You sure you can handle them all on your own?" Hinata asked her best friend and partner in a concerned voice.
"Yeah, I can handle it Hinata-chan! I'll even destroy their scripts while we're in the limo probably and make myself a burden upon them but be so damn slutty they wouldn't dare to take me back home!" Sakura said oh-so confidently as if she were a pro at this and perfected every aspect of the plan a million times before.
Hinata just patted her pink haired friend on the back before walking up the stairs with her to pick out the perfect dress to seduce the guys in…
I'm so so sooooooo damn sorry I didn't update sooner and I know you all want to shoot me for being the most epically insane procrastinator but don't! I'm sooorrry guys! Please forgive Goody-chan!
I didn't mean to let this fic go so unattended for almost nearly a year! It's so insane cuz I thought that I would've been better at finishing my stories! Ugh…I'm totally in denial because I just found out that H&H was so far behind where I planned it to be! :(
Please review if you liked the chapter…I take full credit for all of you who subscribed to me and received an email and was like WTF, what the hell is this? Since you forgot this story existed! TT^TT
I won't let it happen again if you guys review, fave, and all that stuff because I really want to not have any hiatus stories anymore! It's a severely bad habit that I'm attempting to break!
