The next day. In school. During Science class.
"Hand in the assignment I gave you that day later but before that I want each group to present it in front of the class." Miss Lair commanded. "First group. Haruno Sakura, Hyuuga Hinata and Yamanaka Ino."
The three girls took the report and the model to the front of the class and started talking.
"Good morning Miss Lair and all our fellow classmates. Today, we are going to tell you about an interesting experiment we found in a cool website." Ino said confidently holding up the egg and the report.
Shikamaru, Naruto and Sasuke paid full attention and listened at their girls attentively.
"Very well. Let's see about it." Miss Lair said from the corner of the class.
"This is an egg which bounces." Sakura said when Ino passed her the soft shelled egg.
A few of their classmates at the back of the class whispered and giggled.
Annoyed, Ino took away the egg and bounced it on the table "Don't believe Sakura? See this."
The girls who laughed gasped.
"Hmpph… Impressed much, girls over there." Ino swirled her hair and put the egg down, smirking at the girls making a hey-bitches look. "Hinata will now tell you how it works."
"An egg shell, which is high in calcium breaks but this egg's shell, is partially dissolved, so it became soft." Hinata used her fingers to squeeze the egg a little which made it deform and became normal when she stopped pressing on the egg.
"Interesting." Miss Lair said. "And how did you dissolve that shell, Miss Hyuuga?"
"Umm… We submerged the egg into a container of vinegar for 24-48 hours and this is the result." Hinata made the explanation short and simple.
"I'm gonna try it at home." A boy sitting at the front row told his seatmate. "Me too." The seatmate replied.
"Anymore questions?" Miss Lair asked the class.
The class remained silent and a few of them shook their heads.
"Well then, seems like there's no more questions so this is the end." Ino said.
"We appreciated you all for paying attention. Thank you." The three girls bowed together.
A great round of applause was given by their classmates. Everyone, except for the three bitches at the back of the class.
-OTHER CLASSES-
After school… 1p.m.
Hinata and Sakura were walking slowly toward the school gate whilst Ino raced to them, panting heavily.
"Girls…*pant… Pizzaria's tomorrow night, remember?" Ino panted.
"Oh yeah!" Sakura thumped her left fist to her right palm.
"So today, later at 4 p.m., come over to my house. We'll go shopping." Ino said. "Bring cash." She added.
Then Sakura and Ino together walked home, leaving Hinata to wait for Neji to pick her up.
"Great model." Somebody said.
Hinata heard a familiar voice and turned her head back.
"Na-naruto?" Hinata said, surprised.
"Hey. I liked you girls' work. That's great!" Naruto swung his bag pack to his back and said "Am I walking you home?"
Then Neji's car stopped at the roads and he saw Naruto with Hinata. Hinata saw Neji too, but unknowingly Neji winked at her and drove off.
"Umm… if you want to…" Hinata blushed lightly.
"It would be my pleasure." Naruto said walking toward the gate with HInata walking beside him.
"That lucky champ." Shikamaru said to Sasuke while looking at Naruto.
"Hn." Sasuke looked at Naruto who is now laughing with Hinata.
"He's got that girl." Shikamaru slapped his forehead. I lose to him. Ino isn't mine yet… Man! He thought.
Walking Hinata home~
"Pizzaria's tomorrow, eh?" Naruto winked at Hinata.
"Yeah." Hinata smiled sweetly. "I'm excited."
"Can't wait." Especially seeing Hinata not in her school uniform. Naruto thought.
"I'll walk you to the door." Naruto said with a cool voice even though he saw Neji at the pavement waiting for Hinata to arrive home.
"Umm… Are you sure? Neji is there…" Hinata whispered.
"Yeah. I am." Naruto replied confidently.
Neji was looking at Naruto, right in the eye.
"Good day, Naruto." Neji smirked.
"Hey, Neji." Naruto smiled politely.
"You go on inside, I'll have a talk with him." Neji opened the door to let Hinata enter.
"Break her heart; I'll break your neck." Neji said quietly that only Naruto could hear and ran a finger pass his own neck.
"Don't worry. I'm not like any guy who would do that to her." Naruto smiled confidently with his eyes soft, indicating that he really likes Hinata.
"Good to hear that. I'll better get going." Neji opened the door and took a step inside. Then he turned back and took a last glance at Naruto. Naruto waved at him which he replied with a small smile.
Neji had always been very protective to his cousin, Hinata. That's why most guys don't dare to date Hinata because if they did something wrong, Neji, perhaps might kill them.
Hinata felt so happy that Naruto wanted to walk her home and she danced to her room. She then took a showerafter lunch and started to do her homeworks.
Time passed very fast and with a flip of a page, it's four p.m.
"Done, with the homeworks." Hinata said, satisfied. She tidied up her books and stacked them nicely and neatly on her table.
She changed into a purple top with short sleeves and put on purple jeans. She then slipped on a blue jacket just incase she got cold.
She took her purse and informed her otousan that she'll be out with the girls and will be having dinner at home.
She walked slowly to Ino's house, enjoying watching kids playing outside.
"Tag you're it!" A child tapped a little girl's arm and they chased each other.
Hinata giggled and walked on.
Knock knock…
Hinata knocked at Ino's door.
Ino opened the door and said "Hey Hinata. Please come in."
Ino had her wet hair wrapped up in a towel and she was applying her lip gloss.
Hinata looked around the house. Umm… It's kinda… messy here?
"Make-up, Hinata?" Ino offered Hinata some of her cosmetics.
"No thank you, Ino." Hinata shook her head and smiled politely.
"Have a seat."
Hinata looked at the sofa covered with teen's magazines. She stacked them up in one pile at the corner.
"You're a tidy person, Hinata. I, however is the exact opposite." Ino complimented Hinata while drying her hair with the towel.
Knock knock knock…
"Coming…" Ino pushed herself towards the door and opened it.
"Hi there. All set and ready to go?" Sakura said in one breath.
Sakura is wearing a blue Chinese style dress with circular designs on it. The dress flows an inch below her knees.
"Just a minute!" Ino pulled Sakura inside and tied up her hair in a loose messy bun.
"Hey Hinata! Early ehh?" Sakura said while sitting beside Hinata.
"Heheh… I had just arrived here actually." Hinata giggled.
"Girls, I'll go change for a minute. Bear with me, kay? Move it!" Ino pushed her bag away from the floor and jogged to her bedroom which was only five meters from the dining room.
"Clumsy girl, isn't she? That's why she's always late." Sakura pointed at the direction where Ino went.
"That's her. I'm used to it." Hinata giggled.
"Me too. If one day this place…" Sakura pointed at the floor "…becomes clean and tidy. Something must be wrong with Ino. Or even maybe it's because she had been possessed!" Sakura laughed.
"Yep… I agree." Hinata laughed.
"Done!" Ino jumped out from her bedroom looking fabulous. She was wearing a bright red top which showed some parts of her flat tummy with a black mini skirt which is five inches above her knees. She had some glitters over her face and her hair was clipped with flowery clips. She looks like someone who absolutely has a great taste of style.
"Three minutes is all you take? For all these?" Sakura said looking her from up to down and down to up again.
"Yeah… Hehehh… I'm used to rushing." Ino said while adjusting her top.
"Let's head out!" Ino walked hand in hand with the girls to a shop which was quarter mile from her house.
"Okay... Here's it. It's a fabulous shop with all sorts of dresses, you name it and it's not very expensive too!" Ino winked.
Ino opened the door and shout out "Heyy Miss Rumberry! How are you?"
A lady with brown wavy hair which is as long as Hinata's who is wearing black all over and who's in her thirties looked up and saw the girls.
"You know here well?" Sakura whispered to Ino.
"Oh yea. Don't mention it!" Ino rolled her eyes at Sakura.
"Ohh hii Ino! I'm fine, thank you. And who are these cute looking girls?" Miss Rumberry looked at Hinata and Sakura and back to Ino.
"They's my friends, Sakura and Hinata." Ino introduced the girls to the lady. "Sakura, Hinata, This is Miss Rumberry." Ino smiled.
"Welcome, Sakura and Hinata. Am I wrong?" Miss Rumberry asked happily.
"Absolutely right." Sakura smiled shyly.
"You're correct." Hinata said quietly.
"Aww… Don't be shy… What bring you girls here?" Miss Rumberry started to flip on the hangers with clothes behind her, looking for some clothes for the young ladies.
"We're… having dinner with boys from our classes tomorrow and so, we wanna find something cute and age appropriate for us." Ino explained, adding a few fake details.
"Ahhh… boyfriends. Triple dates?" Miss Rumberry asked winking.
"So not! Don't you kid me!" Ino said and playfully pat Miss Rumberry on the arm.
"Here Ino. Try this on." Miss Rumberry took a black dress with short sleeves which seems to be gleaming basically because of the shiny designs on it.
"Well, Sakura and Hinata. What colours would you like for a dress?" Miss Rumberry clasped her palms together waiting for an answer.
"Pink. Preferably with flowers, Miss Rumberry." Sakura said politely.
"I like light blue or purple and plain." Hinata smiled.
"I'll find something for you girls. Please hang on there…" Miss Rumberry said as her hand flickered on the clothes hanging everywhere.
"How would you like this, Hinata?" Miss Rumberry handed her a blue-ish kimono dress which has purple butterfly designs on them.
Hinata took the kimono and went to the fitting room.
"Heyyy…" Ino walked out and said in a sexy voice. Ino was wearing the black dress which showed off her teeny tiny body and her long skinny legs.
"OH GOODNESS ME. YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHING…" Miss Rumberry gasped.
"Hot!" Sakura said enviously. "Only that your shoes doesn't match!" Sakura pointed at her dirty sneakers.
"Shut up, Billboard brows! I'm obviously not wearing these sneakers tomorrow. Thank you very much." Ino shot Sakura a glare.
Sakura and Miss Rumberry both laughed. "Oh. Hang on Sakura. I'll just find the perfect dress for you. Hang on a sec." Miss Rumberry said and started searching for the clothes again.
"Umm… How do I look?" Hinata came out from the fitting room. Hinata was wearing the kimono which flows till her feet.
"One word, gorgeous! Hinata, you're soooooo gorgeous!" Sakura screeched.
"Mmmm… Looks great on you, Hinata." Ino said happily while raising one of her eyebrows.
"Here Sakura. Try this on. Go, go." Miss Rumberry handed Sakura a pink clothing.
"Wow, perfect, Hinata, you're beautiful!" Miss Rumberry put her palm on her hips, enjoying seeing the girls looking fabulous.
I remembered the olden days when I was once like that. I was so happy back then… Miss Rumberry thought with a smile. Now I would just like to help teenage girls to be as happy as I was before…
Sakura then come out with a hot pink dress which has black fancy flowery designs on them which flowed about two inches above her knees.
"Woo-hoo. Sasuke is going goo-goo eyed tomorrow!" Ino poke Sakura.
"Hehehh… Nice, Sakura!" Hinata clapped her hands quietly.
Miss Rumberry smiled at Sakura and said "Who's this Sasuke? He would be very lucky to have a girl who looks so beauty-licious."
The girls went back into the fitting rooms and got changed back into their normal clothes.
"Let's pay and head home. I'm tired." Ino yawned.
They paid Miss Rumberry and went home happily. "Come again, girls!" Miss Rumberry waved at them.
"Ummm… Ino, Sakura would you like to come overnight in my house after Pizzaria's tomorrow?" Hinata asked since her house is the closest to town.
"Why not? We could go get some accessories and get our hair done in Kelly's Palace tomorrow before going to dinner." Ino added.
"Sure!" Sakura said, excitedly.
"That's confirmed. We'll meet at Hinata's house tomorrow at 4.30p.m. And wear high heels." Ino winked and the girls headed home.
Yeahh... Done with this chapter... How was it? :)
