Konoha Love: Chapter 8

After Neji and TenTen's "big" fight, Naruto and Shikamaru started to get nervous. I mean, they have a lot of time left until the wedding, and it was Monday and the wedding is on Saturday. Why should they be nervous? Or, what are they nervous about? Is the reason because Sasuke might not come? Nope, it's because they're nervous that they'll end up like Neji and TenTen. They stayed inside their rooms for the entire day…ok well not the entire day but for a few hours. Naruto got bored so he went to Shikamaru's room, which was right across his. He knocked and heard a, 'Open'

"Hey Shikamaru! What cha doing?"

"Thinking…"

"About Ino?"

"How troublesome."

"Well, I've been thinking about Hinata. And I wonder if you can help me?"

"I can't…you have to do it by yourself."

"What! Why?"

"Cuz, you just have to."

"Hmph, you're no help."

"I know…now leave, I'm thinking."

"Fine…be that way!"

Shikamaru sighed as he heard his friend close the door. He got up and went to Ino's room, which is on the other side of the hall. He walked until he saw a very pinkish door. He sighed, 'This is so Ino's room…how troublesome.' He thought. He knocked on the door and waited for it to open. He started to tap his foot. He finally stopped and started pounding on the door. You could here it all over the house.

"INO YAMANAKA! OPEN THIS DOOR NOW!"

"Coming!"

Shikamaru finally stopped and saw that Ino had her hair wet and was dressed up in a jean mini skirt and a pink shirt. She smiled at Shikamaru and let him in.

"Be quiet Shika-kun! Now what do you want?"

"I-err…wanted to…um…tell…er...y-you…that...um…"

"Spit it out already!"

"Ok shesh, I-I-I…l-l-love…y-y-you…."

"…"

"…"

After 5 minutes of staring into each other's eyes, Ino finally gave in and tackled Shikamaru in a bear hug. Shikamaru started to turn different colors.

"Oh Shika-kun! I love you too!"

"I-Ino…c-can't…b-breathe."

"Oh my God! Sorry Shika-kun!"

"Hmph, troublesome woman." Shikamaru sighed, took something out of his pocket, and gave it to Ino who looked at it with starry anime eyes. She smiled at him, hugged him and grabbed the little box. Inside it was a small pink diamond ring and a note that read, 'To my one and only love, Ino. Love Shikamaru.'

"Shikamaru! It's beautiful! I love you soooo much!" Ino said as she put it on.

Shikamaru gave a sigh of relief…everything went well. Now was for Naruto.

"Hey Ino, grab your video camera and come with me."

"What is it for?"

"Naruto and Hinata."

"Hehehe…we're spying on them, aren't we?"

"What do you think?"

Ino smiled and grabbed her camera. She followed Shikamaru all the way to the gardens, where you can see Naruto and Hinata walking. She smiled at them and pulled Shikamaru behind a tree that was close enough to hear and see everything. She smiled evilly, turned on her video camera, and told Shikamaru to be quiet. Naruto stopped walking and Hinata turned around. He started blushing and looked to the ground. Neji was on his room balcony and knew what was happening. TenTen was also looking at the couple and smiled. Naruto gulped and looked at Hinata right in the eye. Hinata was red 'cause Naruto was looking right at her.

"H-Hinata-chan…I, err wanted to tell you something."

"M-me t-too, N-Naruto-kun."

"W-well how I put this,"stated Naruto while scratching his head, "I…well….love you…"

Hinata was about to faint but she decided not too. She ran to Naruto and gave him a big huge bear hug. Naruto was startled at first then he hugged back. Hinata broke the hug and said,

"I-I, l-love y-you t-too, Na-Naruto-kun."

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

"Y-yes."

"Oh thank you Hinata! And I got this for you, hope you like it!" Naruto gave her a little slender box that contained a stainless steel heart locket, which had; 'Naruto and Hinata' carved on it and inside it had their pictures inside of it. She widen her eyes and jumped on Naruto, laughing.

"Ok thank you Naruto! It's the best gift ever!"

Naruto smiled and hugged her. She hugged back and they stayed that way for a couple of more minutes. Then they heard clapped and yells saying 'You go Hinata!' hey both broke the hug and saw TenTen smiling and yelling, 'You go Hinata!' And heard the clapping from behind the tree. They both saw Ino and Shikamaru clapping and Ino smiling her head off. Naruto and Hinata blushed and smiled. Ino then stopped and walked towards the new couple.

"Hey guys, great work, but we have to get Ten, and Neji together ok?" asked Ino.

"S-sure, b-but h-how d-do w-we do th-that?" asked Hinata.

"Well, we're going to lock them into a room, and let them do it by themselves."

"WHAT! They're too young for that!" yelled Naruto.

"Stupid, not that, let them confess to each other on their own!"

"Troublesome…"

"Ok, fine let's go."

They went back to the house and knocked on TenTen's door.

"Hey Ten! Can you meet me in my room?"

"Sure! I'll be a minute!"

They then hurried to Neji's room and knocked on his door saying the same thing. They saw Ino already there, so Ino went inside and told TenTen to hide inside the closet until I come back. TenTen was confused but did it anyway. Ino then closed the door and turned off the lights. She was right on time to see Neji coming her way. She smiled at Neji and said, That she'll be back and go ahead and wait for her inside. Neji sighed and went into the dark room. Ino locked the door, and smiled evilly.

"Ino? Is that you?"

"T-TenTen? Where are you?"

"Neji? I'm in the closet…why are you here?"

"Ino told me to wait for her and the others here."

"Really? Well can you help me? The door is stuck."

"Ok, let me find the switch."

"Wait, the light is off?"

"Yea…where could---ow!"

"Neji! Are you ok?"

"Y-yea, I just slipped on something…ow, I think I twisted my ankle."

"Well, can you get me out of here?"

"Yea, just keep on talking."

"Where are you?"

"I think I found the switch."

"Ok, hurry up."

"How can I, if I have a freaking broken ankle!"

"Just turn the light on!"

-Switch-

"There, ok help me push now."

"Ok….argh…..finally!"

"Ahhh! Ow! My ankle!"

"Neji-kun! How's your ankle?"

"F-fine."

"Stay here; I'll go get some help."

"Ok."

When TenTen went to the door, it was locked. She widens her eyes and turns around towards a confused Neji.

"I-its locked…Neji-kun, its locked!"

"W-what? How could they!" Neji got so mad he forgot the pain in his ankle and started to stand up. Once he stood up, he tried to take a step, but he fell down quickly. Seeing this, TenTen rushed over to Neji and caught him before he could fall.

"Neji! Don't move, you're ankle is going to get worse." (a/n: sound familiar? as you read along something is also familiar)

TenTen blushed on how close they were and so did Neji. Surprisingly, Neji grabbed her arms, shoved her towards him, and hugged her tightly. TenTen's eyes were all widened but she soon relaxed and buried her face on his chest.

"Ten, I need you with me. Don't you understand that already?"

"T-thank you."

"Now, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Of course!"

Neji got out onyx heart-shaped earrings and a matching necklace. She looked at him surprised and all and she gave him a kiss. Neji was surprised but he soon returned the kiss.

"They look soooo cute," said Ino.

"I know, but Ino, how do we get down from this tree?" asked Naruto.

"Uhhhhh…….we jump down of course!"

"Ummm ok, if you say so…"
