Naruto, surprisingly, woke up early. He sat up and rubbed his eyes to see the three girls looking out at the rising sun. Without disturbing them he quickly got dressed. When he was finally ready, he walked up behind them. At one point he wouldn't have scared them senseless, but not he was more mature. Oh, who was he kidding? " Boo!" the girls jumped in fright and glared at Naruto laughing and rolling on the ground. His little scheme earned him two bops on the head. At around noon the four of them headed out. Naruto could only stand a little bit of their girl talk before declaring, " I'm gunna go train." And with that, he leapt off. It was then that the girls went into a full catapult of a discussion about boys.

" Omg! I know! Totally!"

" Geez I mean you'd think that…"

" EEE!! I know so hot!"

" Omg! Omg! Omg!"

Sakura was having the time of her life. Normally it was only Ino who was like this, but Hinata and Sakura couldn't help but get swept up by the conversation.

Naruto was walking along when he saw Kiba in his yard trying to hose down his dog. Naruto grinned and waved, " Yo! Kiba!" Kiba fended himself from the giant dog as it pounced on him. " Ah! A little help here?" Naruto laughed and entered the yard. It took them about an hour but they finally got Akamaru cleaned out. " Geez, he sure has grown big…" Naruto commented, watching the giant dog swallow five butterflies at once. Kiba shrugged, " Never really noticed it since I was with him the whole time. So what about you, what have you been up to lately?"

" Well," Naruto began, " the oddest thing happened yesterday."

" Oh?"

" Well, I somehow had Hinata, Sakura and Ino over at my place last night."

" WHAT? NO WAY!"

Naruto shrugged. " Well it was kind of awkward."

Kiba shook his head, " If I were in your place, geez I wish I was in your place, I wouldn't be complaining right about now."

Naruto shrugged again, " Eh, guess your right. Wonder where Sasuke is, I barely see him…"

Kiba leaned back, " He's probably being emo somewhere."

Naruto lay down beside Kiba, " Suppose your right.

Said person was walking through the streets of Konoha. Though he had been back for almost four days, he hadn't trained at all. He needed to get his thoughts straight. Dirt scattered around his feet as his footsteps broke the silence of the deserted street. He sighed. Perhaps it might have been best if he had just stayed away from Konoha… He quickly regretted the comment as he saw Sakura coming down the road, obviously not looking where she was going. She bumped into him, and as she was about to hit the ground, he caught her wrist and hoisted her up. " You should really pay attention to where you're going." He stated.

Sakura only nodded," Yeah, sorry Sasuke, guess something was just on my mind." And she hurried off. Sasuke looked at the hand that had grasped Sakura. For some reason it was, tingling

Shikamaru and Temari walked hand in hand when they crossed paths with Neji and Tenten. The two blushed as Tenten let out a little gasp. " No… you? Shikamaru?" she asked, looking from one red face to the other. Neji couldn't help but smile, " Would've never guessed. Come on Tenten, they need some alone time." And Neji snickered. Shikamaru glared at him as he walked away. " Come on you lazy ass lets get moving." Shikamaru sighed and allowed himself to be dragged on by the blonde.

Author's Note: Argh! There wasn't much to write again… guess I'll just do Tobi.Vs. Itachi next chappy and then get all of the Konoha people gathered to share the news :3 I'm just thinking of a way for Sasuke to kind of get back in "the circle". Hmmm… anyways lol! huggles Tobi plushie
