Chapter 14

One Couple, Two IOUs, Three Enemies

"So can do it or not?"

"I don't know maybe."

"Please! Please! Please!"

"Ok, fine, I'll do it! But what if…"

"NO IFS!!!! EITHER YOU DO IT OR STAY LIKE THE SAME PERSON YOU'VE EVEN BEEN!!!!!"

"Ok, ok, I get the picture. Just let me get ready."

Hinata started doing leg and arm stretches. It took 5 minutes. Then she started taking big breaths. Sakura got irritated. "OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD JUST ASK HIM!!!"

Hinata gulped. Sakura was pushing her toward Naruto. Naruto was happily eating ramen talking to a classmate. It looked like Sasuke, but as they got closer they realized that it was Sai. As they got closer, they figured out that Naruto was talking about the big kiss last week and life-sized statue of himself. That kiss was still the talk of the school. Ino was desperate to get everyone to notice her. She spent $1,000,000 worth of ipods for the whole school. Sure, everyone talked about her………………………………….for a day.

Everyone at the election was trying to get their voters back. The only one not trying was Naruto. He didn't even try and in one week, he's popular.

Hinata tightly closed her eyes. She stuttered, "C-c-c-c-can I-I-I-I h-h-h-hav-v-ve a-a d-d-date with you?" Hinata's string of words went stronger and stronger along the way.

Sai punched Naruto on the shoulder then walked away. When he was far enough, Naruto yelped, "That hurt."

"Ok." Naruto mumbled.

Hinata's face brightened. Then she ran away in embarrassment.

Sakura watched. What the hell was that? She totally needs to be better at this. Now, now, you know how she is around Naruto. BUT STILL!!!!!

She turned around to schedule the time and date they should meet. "So, uh, Hinata might want to…"

"I love you!"

"What?" Sakura started getting creeped out. Naruto started getting nervous. "Yeah, I'll go to the date, but can you be mine?"

"Um, be Hinata's. I'm not interested."

Naruto gave a little smile. "Maybe I'll start to like Hinata and think of you as a friend."

"You're still not going to be friend when you're Hinata's boyfriend." Sakura pouted. "I'm interested in someone else." Naruto dropped his head. "So you like Deidara right?"

"WHAT??!!! Listen, you go in front of the school at 6 on Saturday. Hinata will decide where you'll both go."

"Fine!"

As Naruto walked away, Sakura was thinking. What had made them think that she liked Deidara? Maybe it was because of the exploding art. Or maybe it was because they didn't have a close look at who it was. So, since some people knew that Kisame and Deidara liked to play, they thought that. I don't know. I'm just going to ask them right now.

Ring Ring

On second thought, after school!

After School

"So……Why is everyone saying that I like Deidara?"

"Because Itachi spread it. Yeah"

"What?!"

"He owed me."

"So you like me?"

"No! Yeah. I told him he could choose anybody in the Akatsuki. Yeah. I didn't think that he would choose. Yeah"

"It was for revenge."

Sakura sighed. She would have to sort everything out herself. Sakura also had to count and be the spokesman for the election coming this Thursday.

The Election

Sakura cheerfully said this, "Ok, people, it's time for the election to start. Now, remember to vote for the one that you think is best for president. Here's an add-on, DON'T VOTE FOR INO!!!!!"

Sakura went on the side of the stage and waited. Temari went up to the stand and snottily said, "I'm going to make this speech simple. Vote for me and I'll give you much more dances and you don't have to wear uniform at all!" Then she gave her cutest look and walked back to her seat.

Sakura went back to the stand. "Now it is the evil pig, Ino!" Before Sakura could walk back, Ino pushed her to the ground. "I'm going to make everyone popular by styling your hair. My friends have already figured out the perfect hairstyle for you people. Also, Tsunade let me have a barber's shop next to the ramen shop. I figured, there should be more shops so we can be in school in comfort." And then she went on and on about how hair should be taken care of. Sakura almost fell asleep. Ino stopped talking. Sakura snapped her head up.

"Thirds up, Rock Lee!" Lee somersaulted to the stand. "YOUTHFUL PEOPLE MUST HAVE YOUTHFUL SPIRITS!!!! YOUTHFUL STUDENTS MUST HAVE YOUTHFUL TRAINING!!!! YOUTHFUL PEOPLE WILL WORK HARD TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOAL!!!!"

Everyone groaned. Lee had screamed at the microphone. Their ears were still drumming. Lee went back to his seat. It took 6 minutes for everyone to recover. Then Naruto whacked Lee's head and went up to the stand. Sakura wanted to rest a little so she just cued Naruto to go up. "I'm the best ninja ever and soon I'm going to be Hokage of this country. So vote for me and you'll be satisfied. Also, meet my new girlfriend Hinata." Then he walked away.

Sakura got recovered. "And that's it for the day."

"You forgot about me! Yeah" Then he knocked Sakura unconscious. "I'll kill you if you don't vote for me! Yeah"

Sakura woke up when Deidara was shaking her. Then she pushed him back. Sakura got up the stand and panted, "Don't vote for Deidara! You'll regret i……." By that time Ino punched her in the face. Then there was a fight. Temari just sat on her seat and kept on filing her nails. Naruto and Lee tried to pry the fingers off the two of them. Deidara just kept staring at the floor, probably thinking of another evil plot. Everyone was thinking that because his finger was on his lip and then he kept smiling once in a while.

Friday

"I can't believe they were so freaking so scared of him. But you know, if Deidara wasn't in the Akatsuki, Naruto would have won. Look, they're only vote apart." Sakura was devastated. She knew that he would make school a living hell.

"I know!" Shizune totally agreed. Shizune was the vice-principal. She always nagged Tsunade to do the paperwork. The pig was always playing in the garden. They both sighed. Shizune tiredly said, "We have no choice but to make Deidara president."

"Wait, do bad students have to be in the election? Does it count as a punishment?"

"Well actually, anybody could be in the election."

"Ok, that's just sad."

Announcement Sheet

The Existing World That We have Known Has Ended

Deidara has become the president of the school. (That he gets to be principal for a day)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sakura trudged down to recess. The speakers went on. Haha! Yeah. I get to rule school! Yeah. All teachers must go to the detention room now! Yeah! This is going to be fun! Freshmen and seniors must report to the cafeteria. Sophomores and juniors must go into the auditorium. Yeah. And Tsunade, you get the very pleasure of having to go to the haunted classroom.

"The cafeteria?"

And so everyone went and followed him. He got the teachers to do 10 pages of standards saying Deidara has the best artwork in the world and he likes exploding them. If they were done, they had to 10 more pages of the same sentence. He got the sophomores on treadmills and they had to run or walk for an hour. Then he had them do the same thing the teachers were doing. Except they had to do 8 pages and they could get out of school. For freshmen and seniors, he just let them all go. The Akatsuki never showed. Guess they only take orders from their leader.

"Everyone can go except Kiba, Neji, Shikamaru, and Sakura! Yeah"

WHAT THE HELL IS HE TRYING TO DO!!!!!

"YAY! I got the four of you! Yeah"

"What do you want with us?"

"To play with of course. Yeah"

"Yeah, like Sakura is any good to play with. I can't believe you two are a couple. It just freaked me out."

"NEJI YOU HAVE THE BIGGEST MOUTH EVER!!!!!!!"

"No, of course we're not together. Do we even look good with each other? Yeah"

"I would say no!"

"Good!" Deidara and Sakura said this together. They both glared at each other. Then turned their heads toward the other direction and pouted.

"Awwwwwww!!! That is so cute!"

"I hate you!" Sakura started hitting Neji in anger. Neji punched back. Then started another fight.

A Sound Ninja Spying

"Heh, they like each other..."

Kisame's House

"I want a statue! I want to see the kiss!"

Kisame was still in a corner still mourning.
