Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto, this fanfic would a lot better…sigh…I suck at writing good stories…darn depression any ways…I'm attempting to do something new…FLASHBACKS! I'm going to tell you who's FB it is in parenthesis, so, expect it! BTW…B2S means: back to sleepover
Sakura, Ino, Hinata, and Tenten were all waiting at Ino's parents' flower shop for Arene. The blonde convinced her parents to let them spend the night over at the shop and promised no to trash the place. Now, Ino was wondering if the energy was wasted, because Arene was still absent. Tenten shrugged.
"Maybe she ran into someone." Hinata agreed.
"Yes, maybe, or she's being slow because she is still sore from surgery." Sakura nodded.
"Yeah pig, or maybe she doesn't want to be around you." As Ino opened her mouth to say something back to Sakura, a voice interrupted.
"Or maybe she had to finish cleaning the house before she left." The girls turned to see Arene, clearly aggravated, and began to smile.
"So, you did come." Arene shrugged.
"I didn't want to come back to a messy house, so, so sorry that I was two minutes early." The girls blinked.
"Two minutes, early?" Arene stared at the group.
"You told me to be here at 7 o'clock…its 6:28…so yes…early." Sakura and Tenten turned to Ino.
"You told her seven…and complain when she's late? How are you friends with Shikamaru?" The blonde gave her friends an embarrassed smile.
"I guess I forgot…heh…but you still love me…don't you?" Tenten rolled her eyes and began talking to Arene, as she brought her stuff into the building; while Sakura continued to glare and Ino, who was still apologizing. Hinata sighed.
(Hinata's point of view)
Well…I guess this will be…interesting…it could be worse…Hanabi could be here.
[Norm view
All the girls were in their pajamas and were gossiping…well…guessing. The topic was: what type of shampoo does Neji use? And the only person who knew was…Tenten. Hinata never bothered to ask Neji out of fear; Sakura and Ino didn't talk to Neji at all; but Tenten found out during a mission, and it turned out that they both used the same shampoo. After the girls laughed at that, Ino said that Shikamaru used the same hair gel as her. She found out when she was cleaning his bathroom with his mother. Hinata mentioned that Naruto had a pair of P.J's that were almost the same as a pair that she owns. Arene smiled.
"Would those be the same as you're wearing?" Hinata blushed.
"Yes, how did you know?"
"You said that the one's your wearing are your favorite…so that kinda told itself, Hina-chan." Now all the girls were laughing hysterically. Tenten smiled.
"How did you find out, Hinata?" The Hyuga blushed harder.
"I-I-I-He-he-it-" The group laughed harder. Ino pointed to the red girl.
"I TOLD YOU! You are stalking him!" After a while, Sakura sighed.
"The only one I share something with was…" She stopped abruptly, turning pale at the memory. Ino prodded.
"Who and what, Forehead?" Sakura sighed.
"Pakkun…we use the same shampoo." Arene burst out laughing while the others looked at the two questionably. Sakura explained to them. "Pakkun is Kakashi-sensei's ninja-dog. I found out during the Chunnin exams, when we were after Sasuke, who was chasing Gaara." The other girls then followed Arene's idea and cracked up, causing Sakura to soon laugh too. Once they all could breathe normally again, Hinata turned to Arene.
"Who do you have in common with, Arene?" The girl paused before grinning.
"Sasuke." A silence went throughout the shop as all the girls huddled around Arene.
"What?" Arene nodded.
"I was packing for a mission and he came up behind me…I could tell he was embarrassed. At first he mumbled and I couldn't understand him. And then I got him to speak louder and guess what he said." Each girl gave her guess.
Hinata-"Shampoo."
Tenten-"Body wash."
Ino-"Gel."
Sakura-"Ponytail holder." Arene shook her head.
"He wanted…"
"What! What was it?"
"Body wash." Tenten high fived Arene while Ino and Sakura froze, both thinking the same thing.
Is Sasuke-kun…GAY?
Five minutes later
Tenten, Hinata, and Arene were stumped. Sakura and Ino were frozen in the same expression the whole time since Arene's confession, and the others had no idea how to get them out. Arene sighed and leaned back.
"I give…they won't move for anything. Shuriken, Kunai, needles, pictures of Sasuke, magazines, makeup, threatening to shave their hair like Shikamaru, Hinata's Byakugan, nothing! What can we do?" Tenten shrugged.
"Talk about kissing guys?"
"…"
"…" Both Hinata and Arene stared at the panda girl.
"You've kissed Neji?" Tenten gaped.
"How did you know?" Hinata continued to stare at her older friend while Arene grinned.
"You like Neji and only Neji, you wouldn't kiss anyone but him. We all tell who we've kissed? Kay…Hinata, you too…I know you've kissed Kiba, he's all over you." The Hyuga girl blushed as Tenten talked about how Neji kissed her.
(Tenten FB)
Tenten collapsed, once again, during training, causing Neji to stop his attack in mid blow. The boy sighed.
"Tired already?" Tenten shook her head and shakily pushed herself up.
"No…Neji…just, a little winded. Let's keep on going." The Hyuga frowned.
"You're not going to be any use if you're going to collapse again. Stop for a moment. We can meditate." Tenten paled at the thought and shook her head even harder.
"No. Nobody's going to pause in battle to meditate. We're going to finish this until we're over. Ready?" Neji didn't say anything but slid into his stance. The wind rustled the grass as the two stood off. Tenten surveyed the area before disappearing into the trees. Neji activated his Byakugan and scanned the area. Neji scowled. Tenten wasn't there; this was new. She usually hid behind his blind spot, but she wasn't there either. As Neji considered the options on where Tenten could be, a shadow appeared, causing Neji to break his thoughts and perform his Kaiten , blocking the barrage of weapons that showered down onto him. After a while, Neji slowed down, until he completely stopped, glancing around. Tenten was still hidden, even with his Byakugan. This time, Neji looked up and around the area, pale eyes searching for some sign of the bun-haired girl. Neji took a step forward, intending to widen his view, before setting off a trap, creating a mass detonation of exploding tags, making Neji fly backwards and onto the ground, temporarily paralyzed. Tenten appeared, grinning at the Hyuga.
"I win. And now we can take a break." Neji didn't say anything, making Tenten take a closer look at the boy. "You okay? Ne-" Tenten froze as a chakra infused hand shot out and hit at chakra point, leading to a knocked out Tenten. Neji smirked as the girl collapsed onto him.
"You shouldn't lean over an enemy, they could still attack. But you really can't hear me, can you?" No reply was given. Neji sighed and waited. "This will be counted as a tie." Still no reply was given.
Five minutes later
Tenten stirred and slowly opened her eyes. Once she did so, she could see Neji, sitting beside her, staring down at his teammate. Tenten gave him a weak smile.
"You managed to move quicker than I thought. Great job Neji."
"Hn."
"I still gave you a run for your money, didn't I?"
"Hn."
"Those tags were new. I got them from a store and customized them when I took them home. I mixed them with a type of paralyzing poison. You were supposed to stay paralyzed for an hour. I guess I have to get rid of some kinks. What do you think?" Neji thought about it.
"Use Lee next time, I don't like being the experiment."
"Why Lee?"
"If he was paralyzed, we wouldn't have to listen to the 'power of youth'."
"…Maybe I should have Gai-sensei 'help' too…"
"Hn."
"That sound like a good idea. Thanks Neji…but could you help me with mixing this time? I want to get it right." The Hyuga prodigy leaned down to be face to face with her.
"Fine." Then he leaned closer to her and laid a gentle, but sweet kiss on her lips. "Was that fine too?" Tenten blinked and smiled.
"Yes, fine. But it would be better if I could feel my arms. Would you please give me back the feeling now?"
"…Hn…I didn't want you to slap me or something…better?"
"Yes." Slap.
"OW! Why did you that?" Neji glared at Tenten, who glared back.
"That for 'taking advantage' of me!" The two glared at each other; both pairs of eyes refusing to back down from the challenge, not paying attention to the amount of space between, before kissing each other again. But before they could continue, they heard a very loud yell.
"GAI-SENSEI! NEJI IS DEFLOWERING TENTEN'S FLOWER OF YOUTH BY SUFFOGATING HER WITH HIS MOUTH!" Neji and Tenten broke apart to stare at their teammate.
"NO LEE! SAY IT ISN'T TRUE! NEJI IS TRYING TO KILL OUR YOUTHFULL TENTEN!"
"IT IS TRUE GAI-SENSEI!"
"LEE!"
"GAI-SENSEI!"
"LEE!"
"GAI-SENSEI!"
"LEE!"
"GAI-SENSEI!"
B2S
Arene and Hinata stared at Tenten, before breaking out into laughter.
"Lee and Gai seriously did that?"
"Neji-niisan was really straight forward with that." Tenten grinned.
"Yeah…Neji didn't want me to tell anyone. He's worried that the main branch will hear about it and forbid him from ever seeing me again."
"We won't tell."
"It was funny…Neji had to Jukkun Lee and Gai-sensei to make them promise never say anything. If they tell, they can't wear the jumpsuits, or be youthful anymore. It was pretty sad. But what's your story, Hinata?" The girl blushed and began telling about her and Kiba.
(Hinata FB)
Kurenai held up her hand, and her team stopped sparring to pay attention to their teacher.
"That's enough for right now…take ten minutes and then we'll start again." With that, the woman performed a hand sign and 'poofed' away. Shino left to go collect more bugs for his growing…family. While Hinata stayed to watch Kiba and Akamaru play with each other. Kiba was practicing a new move with his companion, and both were eager to show off to Hyuga girl.
"Watch this Hinata!" Kiba, along with Akamaru, joined to become a large, two-headed dog. The two performed their fang over fang and split and destroyed many trees, and after a while, the two separated. Hinata smiled and clapped as the two friends ran toward her.
"That was wonderful Kiba-kun, Akamaru-kun. You will be a very powerful opponent in battle." The dog ran into Hinata's arms while Kiba laughed.
"I'll be a good opponent when I become a Chunnin and beat Naruto." Hinata blinked at the remark, before giving her friend a weak smile.
"Oh…of-of co-course Kiba-kun." Kiba frowned at the young girl's statement.
"Hinata…if you like him…you should tell him. If you don't say anything, one day you will lose that chance because he will find someone else that returns your feelings…and I don't want you to get hurt. Especially if it's someone Neji won't approve." Hinata blushed.
"Don't worry Kiba-kun…Naruto will probably never notice me…so there is no point of me telling him anything. He…only sees…Sakura-san."
"Hinata! Stop lying to yourself! If Naruto ever saw how a nice person you are, he wouldn't even think twice about Sakura. She wishes she could be like you! You're polite, understanding, smart, a true friend, a powerful kunoichi, adorably shy, not narrow-minded, sweet, beautiful…" Kiba stopped abruptly, as Hinata turned a deep red color.
"You…think…I'm…beautiful?" Kiba grinned and scratched the back of his head.
"Well…yeah…you're all those things." Hinata shook her head.
"But so is Sakura…she's-"
"Stop it Hinata! You are better than Sakura. If Naruto could ever see you the way I do…he wouldn't ever leave you." Hinata blushed.
"T-thank you Kiba-kun, n-no one has ever called me beautiful unless they want something." Kiba paused and stared at Hinata, while she scratched behind Akamaru's ear, before speaking.
"Actually, Hinata, there is something I want…" The Hyuga heiress looked up at her teammate.
"What is it?" Kiba walked up to Hinata, leaned over and laid a small kiss on her lips.
"You." Hinata blushed harder before fainting. Kiba caught her, and looked up to the tree in front of him. "I guess I'm a great kisser, huh?" Shino shrugged from a branch.
"Or a really bad one."
B2S
Tenten and Arene gaped at the Hyuga girl.
"Aww! Hina-chan! Is that why you say you don't like Naruto? Because you like, wait, go out with, Kiba?"
"…" Tenten smirked.
"Hmm, Hinata, you should answer…or Neji can always ask Kiba himself." Hinata paled at the thought of her cousin's interrogating skills, or what Tenten called it 'terror-gating'. Arene rolled her eyes.
"You don't have to threaten her, Tenten; but Neji probably, most likely, be very interested in Kiba. So what do you say, Hinata sighed.
"Kiba-kun hasn't asked me out yet. But what about you and Sasuke?" Arene blinked. Since when did Hinata have such an evil glint in her eyes? Tenten turned and looked at Arene.
"Yeah…have you and Sasuke kissed yet?" Arene blinked again at Tenten and then went back to Hinata.
"What makes you think I have something with Sasuke?" Hinata smiled.
"My Byakugan can tell if your lying, Arene…have you two kissed?"
"No."
"Liar." Tenten's eyes got big.
"You kissed him! Tell!" Arene sighed.
"Fine."
(Arene FB)
Arene began to leave, but paused when Sasuke cleared his throat. "Arene…" The girl turned and looked at the boy.
"Yeah?" Sasuke looked at Arene, before stepping up to her, nearly nose to nose. "What?" Arene felt that something was wrong with the boy. Sasuke gave Arene a small smile.
"Do you remember that memory that you gave me?" Arene thought about it.
"In general or a specific memory?"
"Specific." Arene paused as she pondered.
"About your family learning about your mom's pregnancy?" Sasuke nodded.
"Yes…and the other one." Arene cocked her head to the side.
"What other one?"
"This one." Then Sasuke leaned over to give Arene a small, slow, but still passionate kiss onto her mouth.
B2S
Hinata, Tenten, Ino, and Sakura stared at Arene.
Sakura-"You"
Tenten-"Actually"
Ino-"Kissed"
Hinata-"Sasuke"
Ino-"Friggin"
Sakura and Ino-"Hot"
Tenten and Hinata-"Uchiha"
"SASUKE! OMR YOU KISSED HIM!" Arene winced, as she was glomped by the kunoichi, who were all squealing. "Why didn't you tell us earlier? We would have came with you to go get him!" Arene blinked.
"What?" Ino grinned.
"Please, Arene, he kissed you. That makes him a run away boyfriend. It is our job as fellow kunoichi to help you to capture him and make him realize that he is yours, duh." Sakura nodded.
"Yeah Arene, you think because me and Ino fought over him, that means we can't be friends? Please, we're just happy that you proved that he actually does have a heart under all that ice." Tenten added.
"And feathers…am I the only one who sees that his hair is a bird butt?" All the girls except for Hinata agreed, the Hyuga girl frowned.
"It looks like a duck butt to me…" The group began to laugh harder at the comparison. About five minutes later, the girls quieted their laughter enough for them to come up with another sleepover idea: movie. The movie choice: Shinobi, Kunoichi, and War; a romance/action movie, that had all the girls crying, cheering, and staring at the screen. By the climax of the movie, Hinata, Ino, and Sakura were asleep, with Tenten and Arene close to tears as the heroine had to kill her true love because he turned out to be the enemy. Arene whispered quietly.
"Will that be me and Sasuke's future?" Tenten glanced at her female best friend and noticed how alike the movie and the relationship with Arene and Sasuke are. The weapon mistress shook her head.
"No way…you are nothing like this movie. You are way tougher than this chick. She's just acting; life is nothing like the movies…you'll see, don't worry about that." Arene smiled gratefully at her friend.
"Thanks Teddy-chan." Tenten grinned.
"Anytime, now…Teddy-chan is seepy…kay Snaky-chan?" Arene scowled.
"I don't like being called Snaky-chan."
"Fine, your name will be after Sasuke…so…um…Butty-chan!"
"Never say that name ever again."
"Fine…heh…how about Birdie-chan?"
"…Kay…"
"Yay…now…night Birdie-chan…you're not an owl…go to seep."
"Okay…night Teddy-chan." With that, the two girls fell asleep, dreaming dreams that every girl loves to dream about: chocolate, weapons, and hot guys.
This was probably the hardest chappy, and the longest I have ever written…it took me two months, and I hate it…I hope you feel otherwise…dedicated to Angeloflove4eva and her finding her 'Shikamaru'…even though he is kinda like Jiraiya…hmm…lazy, genius, and perverted…that means she found her…Kashi! Lol…read and review…and…SEE YOU AGAIN SOON! BTW, OMR means oh my ramen, yes i actually own that saying, but i don't care if you steal it from me, or you can PM me and i can make one up for you that's custom thought of...your choice! BYEBYE!
