J: Phew!
Chapter Twenty Four- Spin the Bottle
The whole group of party goers sat eagerly in waiting, no one had voiced to go first. So the empty Jones bottle sat motionless in the middle. It could be a curse or a blessing onto whoever used it.
The clock on the wall ticked forward another minute, Temari rolled her eyes and huffed," Oh for crying out loud! I say the birthday girl spins first." A few others nodded in agreement, Takisha nudged Kenzie in the ribs, making the birthday girl frown even more than she already was.
Sighing Kenzie mumbled," Fine, but since I'm the birthday girl I don't have to kiss any girls or Lee, but only because he's Takisha's boyfriend." Takisha smiled appreciateivly at Kenzie, unaware that Kenzie's actual reason for not kissing Lee was because she didn't want to barf on anyone.
Reaching forward Kenzie grabbed the bottle and bravely gave it the first spin of the game. It spun around, and around, and around, and (K: Stop it Jenna!) came to a slow agonizing stop, pointing straight at Sasuke. Glaring heatedly at each other (while Kenzie was being glared a by Ino and Sakura) they chorused," I am not kissing THAT."
"If you won't, I'll gladly do it for you." Kankuro volunteered, only to be shut down by Temari glaring warning daggers at him. Sticking his lower lip out in a pout he mumbled," She's my girlfriend though."
"Seeing as you two refuse to kiss, you must perform a very nasty dare." Temari concluded with a nod of finality.
This, both Kenzie and Sasuke would agree to. Jenna raised her hand and eagerly yelled," I dare Kenzie to hug the pizza man when he shows up and tell him that he's her shining knight in armor." Naruto helplessly fell over laughing as Kenzie simply shrugged, she hugged random strangers all the time. This wouldn't be any different.
Takisha, having been thinking for a minute or so pointed at Sasuke and declared," Sasuke has to take off his shirt and draw a happy face with whip cream on his chest." Two ear splitting screams came from Sakura and Ino, all the guys (Lee included) gulped nervously. If Sasuke had to do something like that to get out of kissing someone, then they were in deep shit.
Non the less Sasuke sucked in his pride (made sure Takisha went below Itachi's name on his mental 'To Kill' list) and pulled his shirt off. Sakura and Ino were practically drowning in their own drool as they watched him grab the whip cream and draw a happy face on his chest.
Jenna pat Takisha on the shoulder," Kudos to your thinking my friend. Never thought about edible body art." 'Ding Dong!' "And now it's Kenzie's turn."
Kenzie gave Jenna a big thumbs up (not Gai style) on her way to the door. Everyone watched in silence as she opened the door, hugged the old pizza man and tell him he was her knight in shining armor. The poor man almost had a heart attack until Temari pulled Kenzie away and paid him for the food and pop. As soon as she shut the door the room errupted into hysterics. Kenzie didn't mind, she just smiled proudly at her work.
Temari went to the kitchen to put the pizza slices on plates. The game continued without her. Since Kenzie spun first she chose who spun next," Um...Naruto, you spin next."
Naruto nodded, not at all nervous, the worse that could happen is that he landed on a guy. If that happened he'd just deman a dare. With a twist of his wrist the bottle was off, spinning a good 100 times or so before coming to a stop on...Takisha. Takisha laughed nervously and glanced over at Lee. Lee didn't seem to mind that the blonde idiot was about to kiss his girlfriend. That irked Takisha a bit, boyfriends were suppose to get upset about these kind of things.
When Takisha turned back to face Naruto he was on his knees in front of her. Lips puckered and eyes closed, waiting very patiently for his kiss. Takisha sighed and leaned forward to give Naruto a little peck. Naruto jumped up from the floor and whopped in glee," Yes! My first REAL kiss! From a girl! In your face Sasuke!" Sasuke stared over at Takisha as if to say, 'Way to go, now I've got to listen to him for the next...year!' Takisha shrugged, pleased she made a little boy more of a man.
Takisha turned straight to Jenna," You spin the bottle now."
Jenna gave no hesitation and lightly spun the bottle, it spun maybe three times and landed on...Ino and Sakura. (It stopped right in between them.) Instantly the three of them demanded,"Dare!" Kankuro inwardly cried, Naruto had to hide a blush and Gaara looked away ashamed of his own thoughts...Well Shukaku's thoughts actually.
Temari was handing out the pizza slices on paper plates, giving Naruto his pizza she decided," You three have to go up on the roof and sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.' You get your pizza after, shoo shoo."
The girls rolled their eyes at how unoriginal Temari was, but they'd rather sing than strip or anything else. Marching outside they went to the edge of the grocery store rof and belted out 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.' When they went back inside Naruto applauded," Wow, you three sounded great together. You have a really pretty voice Jenna."
Scratching the back of her head Jenna muttered," Thanks Naruto. I bet you're pretty good at singing too. Kankuro you can spin the bottle."
Kankuro, half a pizza in his mouth, sent a fruitive glance in Kenzie's direction and spun the bottle. In his head he prayed,' Please land on Kenzie, please land on Kenzie. If it doesn't land on Kenzie I'll cry.' The bottle gods must have loved him, fir it did land on Kenzie. Thus causing Kankuro to choke on his pizza crust, causing Kenzie to blush, he hadn't even kissed her yet either.
Jenna and Takisha playfully nudged Kenzie in the ribs on both sides, Takisha leaned over and whispered," It's a kiss now, but next time you might be in for a make out session." Kenzie glared at Takisha from the corner of her eye, just long enough for Kankuro to stand up, walk over to Kenzie and pull her on to her feet.
Kankuro pulled Kenzie right to his chest, putting them practically nose to nose. Instead of a smug, cocky, eager smile, Kankuro smiled kindly at Kenzie. Kenzie would have done the same if she wasn't a nervous blushing wreck, Kankuro didn't mind though. He just went right ahead and kissed her right on the lips. Long, hard and passionately.
The room errupted into hoots and hollers, even a cat whistle from Narut. Gaara and Sasuke, of course, did nothing but huff and look away. (T: Awww, Kenzie got her first kiss. K: "Blush/glare" Shut up. T: I'm just congradulating you. K: In a very teasing manner. J: Oh, stp bickering and be happy he kissed you. T: Do I hear jealousy in Jenna? J: No. K: I think you are jealous. You're jealous cause you haven't kissed Gaara, yet. J: Don't even start. K: Jenna's jealous! Jenna's jealous! T: Don't worry Jenna, I'm sure you'll get to suck face with Gaara some day. J: "Grump grump grump.")
Roughly ten seconds went by of the new couple kissing. When they broke apart Kenzie looked away from Kankuro with a blush of embarrassment, Kankuro held onto Kenzie in a one armed hug, too proud of himself to let go and find out that that might not have happened. "If you two are done playing newly weds, I'd like to continue with the game." Temari remarked sarcastically.
Giving his older sister a blank stare he hauled Kenzie over to his seat and made her sit in his lap. She was still recovering from the kiss so she didn't complain about the new seating arrangements.
Arms wrapped around Kenzie's waist Kankuro smiled crookedly at his brother saying," Your turn to spin baby bro."
Gaara emotionlessly used his sand to spin the bottle...very hard. The poor bottle was spinning so fast that no one could tell the nozzle from the base. It seemed like forever when the bottle finally slowed down and came to a final stop on...Lee. (T:WHAT?! K: THE FUCK?! J: "Rolling on floor laughing.") Gaara's instant reaction was to first glare at Lee, then over at Temari who was dying (almost literally) of hysteric laughter. Even with Gaara glaring death threats at her, Temari couldn't stop laughing. Lee and Jenna were the only two out of the group not laughing, they were too appaulled at the bottle's choice. (Oh, and Sasuke wasn't laughing either. But he was smirking indignantly.)
Feeling it was the right thing to do Jenna yelled over the laughter," I DARE LEE TO DO A HAND STAND FOR THE REST OF THE GAME! AND GAARA HAS TO TURN HIMSELF INTO A SNOWMAN FOR 20 SECONDS USING HIS SAND!!" Be it the dares, or just Jenna's voice in general, the group stopped laughing and watched Gaara expectantly for the snowman. Lee doing a non stop hand stand wasn't anything to observe.
Gaara raised an invisble eyebrow at Jenna across the room, Jenna could only shrug to say, 'Best I could think of.' His mouth sat in a lopsided frown Gaara got up and summoned his sand. As dared to the sand took the form of a snowman around Gaara's body. It was quite the comical sight, you could tell by mostly everyone fighting back more laughter. Even Jenna couldn't help but smile and giggle at the sight of Sandy Snowman Gaara.
Takisha leaned towards Jenna and whispered," You have no idea how tempted I am to start singing 'Frosty the Snowman.'"
"I think that would be overkill. As in, you'll get killed for sure, and I can't stop him." Jenna informed her now sober friend with a pat on the shoulder.
When the 20 seconds were up Gaara sent the sand back to his knapsack, sitting back down with his arms crossed Gaara muttered," Uchiha can spin."
Sasuke gave a little grunt of 'whatever' and spun the bottle, unlike Gaara he refrained from using too much strength. So the bottle only spun for five seconds and came to a stop on Temari. Instant silent death threats were made at Temari from Sakura and Ino. Sasuke, having no interest in girls whatsoever ("cough"gay"cough") simply closed his eyes to ignore Temari's slightly hopeful face and asked," What do I have to do this time?"
Kenzie came up with the evil deeds this time, "Sasuke, you have to draw two lines down your face and do an immitation of Itachi. Temari you have to give Sakura a super noogie."
Kankuro laughed , hugged and nuzzled Kenzie all at the same time while saying," You have a diabolic mind my Cuddle Bug. I love it." Kenzie's eyes went wide while a bright blush spread across her face. She was also about to hurt Kankuro for the nasty nickname. Takisha and Jenna were shoving their fists in their mouths to shut themselves up. They were failing miserably.
Sasuke looked ready to strangle Kenzie, he didn't dare to though, or Kankuro would skin him alive. Stomping his way to the bathroom he grabbed Temari's eyeliner and drew the marks on his face, glaring at his reflection in the mirror he grumbled," I'm never coming to one of these stupid birthday parties again."
Going back into the living room Jenna choked on her pizza, and Kenzie snorted almost shooting cheese out her nose. Angry marks all over his head Sasuke asked grumpily," What do you want me to do?"
Kenzie tapped her chin in thought, how does one act like Itachi Uchiha? It came to her in the form of a memory of last month. Pointing at Jenna she commanded," Do something to torture Jenna. Itachi does that alot."
"Fuck that! He should torture you since it's your birthday! Or Takisha!" Jenna protested, puffing out her cheeks in a childish manner.
Takisha made a face at Jenna asking," Why me?"
"Just cause you're older." Actually Jenna didn't know why, she just didn't want it to be her. (J: Hey, no one likes to be tortured! T: Depends on the kind of torture it is. K: Are you reffering to the nasty version of torture? T: "Blushes" No. J: Your flaming cheeks say otherwise my friend. K: And, um ya,ew.J: Have you ever tried the nasty torture Kenzie? K: No...But, still... J: So you shouldn't knock it till you try it. T: Jenna, have you? J: No. I'm just advising you not to critize it so heavily when you've never experienced it. K: I'm still thinking you tried it.)
Sasuke rolled his eyes and went over to Jenna, as he approached her Temari noticed that Gaara was getting more tense with each step. Sasuke crouched down in front of her, turned on his sharigan and 'thud.' Jenna passed out in a second. Takisha poked her a few times asking," What did you do to her?"
Going back to his seat he replied," I put her to sleep. I can only asume my brother has done the same to shut her up."
Kenzie was watching Sakura get noogied brutally when she informed Sasuke," Ya, but he did it by Mangekyoing her. That was in October, as far as I know he hasn't done so since. Bwahahahaha!" Kenzie joined Ino in a fit of laughter while Sakura squirmed in Temari's choke hold.
Gaara's eye twitched a little thinking about Itachi doing something or anything to Jenna. Sasuke seemed intrigued by this, an eyebrow raised he asked," How is she still sane? The Mangekyo sharigan is an extreme genjutsu that's suppose to show you the last thing you want to see. Over and over."
Takisha, having given up on poking Jenna awake made a face at Sasuke and said," Jenna is probably immune to insanity cause she's already half way there. And how are we suppose to wake her up? We can't just leave her asleep."
"That's easy enough! Someone's got to kiss her, like in the fairy tales!" Naruto beamed happily, more than eager to be the volunteer prince. Temari and Kankuro looked over at their younger brother, unsurprised to see that he'd turned into a living stone. Tensed up to the point of not even breathing.
Sakura glared at Naruto, she could feel the intensity the room had taken on, but she couldn't tell where it had come from. Still flattening her hair she told the idiot blonde," Naruto, this isn't a fairy tale. You either splash her with water or put something cold down her shirt. Which is something non of you boys will do." Naruto slumped over, any hope and happiness for another kiss gone.
Takisha got up from her seat and left without saying anything. Lee made to follow her only to find her running back in with a handful of snow. It was already starting to melt when she ran over to Jenna and shoved it down her shirt.
Jenna's eyes flew open and she was on her feet dancing. As she danced and jumped about everyone laughed, when she got the last of the snow out she yelled," That was NOT necessary whoever did that! Holy crap that was cold!"
Shivering a little she sat back down and leered at all the meanies still alughing. She made a mental note of who they were and what she'd do to them for revenge. Sasuke opened his mouth to say who the next spinner would be, only to get cut off bu the phone ringing. Temari shrugged at everyone who gave her a questioning look and went to answer the phone.The phone call went over like this.
Temari-"Hello, this is Temari, can I help you?"
??-"Hi, this is Jenna's mom. I'm calling to ask her to come home, she forgot about her after school Italian lessons. Oh, and Kenzie's mom wants her to head home too. If you could pass that along to the girls that'd be great. Thanks. Bye." 'Click'
'Somehow I don't think that was Jenna's mom. But I gotta do it anyways.' Hanging up the phone Temari turned to Jenna saying," That was your mom, she said you had to go home for...Italian lessons? You're suppose to go home too Kenzie."
Kenzie was confused, but Jenna wasn't. Pulling out her cell phone she texted a message to her mom asking where she was. A minute after she got a text back saying her mom was on her way home from work. Snapping it shut Jenna growled," I better go home before Itachi starts torturing the cats. Sorry about the early leave guys. You should call your mom to see what's going on Kenzie. Takisha, will you come with me? Itachi won't do anything in front of other people."
Takisha looked from Lee (who was still doing a hand stand) to Jenna, indecision clear on her face. Jenna waved a hand saying," Never mind. I'll just tell my mom I was too tired to stay awake...Again." That decided Jenna got into motion to leave.
After she left Gaara seemed to slouch a little, Kenzie put her phone away informing the others," Itachi lied, no surprise there. But now I have to go home in half an hour. Apparently your mom called my house to tell you to come for 7:45 Takisha...Which is in ten minutes. Have fun getting home in time." Takisha sighed/groaned and got up on her feet.
Lee bent over to get back on his feet, following after Takisha who gave a little wave over her shoulder on the way out. Going down the wooden stairs Takisha said to Lee," So, are you going to introduce yourself to my mom this time? Or are you just going to spend the night again?"
Lee waited until they were on the sidewalk before sweeping his girlfriend up bridal style and replying," I do not think it is the right time to meet your mother Cherry Blossom. But I do intend to spend the night again. If you do not mind that is."
"Of course not. And remember, not a word to Kenzie, Jenna or any of the others." Takisha nuzzled into Lee's hold, more comfortable than she'd ever be in bed asleep. Lee nodded and sprinted off to Takisha house. (K: Uh...Let me get this straight. Lee has been spending the night at your house? T: I guess. J: He is cause I wrote it so. You don't seem to mind Takisha, and Kenzie just has to ignore it. Which means no problem with the idea. K: I'm just curious on whether they actually SLEEP! T: "Glares and blushes." J: Don't worry, Lee is totally trust worthy...Kankuro on the other hand... T: Never in a million years unless he got drunk. J: You took the words right out of my mouth. K: "Glares and super blushes." I believe you on that too...He will never spend the night at my house!)
