FYI- I'm not a great speller or writer just to let you know ahead of time. Oh I don't take flames! [] Means there thinking! ;D (Oh did I say there all 15 in this story oO;;;)

Disclaimers: I do not own Naruto. It's created by the fabulous Masashi Kishimoto. I wish it were my idea. Story Idea by Ino ---

Chapter 8 - "Change of plans..."

Sasuke looked at the blonde clingy little girl stuck to his arm. He wasn't sure if she was still mad at him or what. If he were her he'd still be mad...or was she just ACTING like that to get Sakura or as she called it forehead off him. He didn't know what to tell her or what to say...should he be nice to her? I mean after all she was on his team...before he could think of anything NICE to actually TELL her he cocked his head back, "Still planning on doing everything by yourself?" He smirked, maybe he thought JUST maybe she'll go back on her word and want to do it as a team instead of all by herself.

She still was a girl and he wasn't going to let her do all her work by herself. Even if she was annoying to some extent he wasn't the type to leave you stranded. Ino frowned, did he actually WANT to make her HATE him with the seven passions of hell!? The way he said it made it seem like he MEANT everything he said yesterday! "Well...Sasuke, I do still plan to do everything on my own, but...oh never mind." She stood up tall and started to walk in the direction of the auditorium where the meeting was going to be held at. "Come on you two...were going to be late..."

Sasuke could have smacked himself in the forehead [She took it the wrong way....]. He watched as she walked in front of them. What was he thinking, she wasn't like Sakura who didn't say ANYTHING back to him and went along with everything he said. It was kind of...attractive that she was like that but this was only training and he didn't like her...but he wasn't quiet sure if she liked him. "Sasuke Kun...?" "Huh?" He looked down to the clingy pink haired girl attached to his arm like a baby to her mother. Did she EVER have anything BETTER to do then cling!?

"Remember what I told you okay! Don't let her try to use her sexiness on you or anything to get you to kiss her or..." Sasuke rolled his eyes, who was she to tell him what to do. It was the other way around he told HER what to do and if she didn't like it to bad... "Sakura...its a team project..." "hm..Kind of figured you'd say that..." she looked down to the ground then the Ino. She was independent and knew a lot of things...more then her and she could give Sasuke more then she could ever give him...but knowing all this made her want to be even better then her.

"I won't lose to you...Ino...PIG!" She said but not loud enough for Ino to hear. "Heh..." Sasuke smirked, she must have noticed...Ino was the number one rank in female ninja's and Sasuke was number one rookie. If they were to EVER get together Sakura would be flaming, spitting fire out of her mouth but he didn't want to break her heart. It was going to be one long three days he's ever had. "I hope I can keep myself in place..." Sakura tugged on his arm move wanting him to hug her or even show any affection, "...Don't expect anything back." He said bluntly while Sakura just smiled.

Ino looked over her shoulder to find a smiling Sakura and a content Sasuke. She rolled her eyes. She knew he didn't like her...maybe he liked Sakura...in the way Ino wanted him to like her...at least once. [Maybe...I just wasn't good enough...I wasn't to thin...I wasn't the strongest...i..i..] She mentally smacked herself back in place. If anything she did a lot to get where she was and being number one female proves it! Even if some people don't see, it... still shines very brightly.

Naruto and Hinata greeted when they had all got there, Sakura. Hinata smiled at Ino, she somehow cured her sickness of not being good enough with just one smile..."Hm." She turned to see Sasuke standing right by her side. She blinked a few times, she didn't know what to say...she felt so worthless right now. If he would say anything cold hearted she'd properly want to ball up and go home but instead he started walking over to the entrance with his hands in his pockets, "You coming?" He said looking over his shoulder at Ino.

He could sense some miss understanding coming from her and he didn't want to make it worse, but if it was Naruto oh you better bet he would! He would have talked to her about it but...he wasn't the type to ask questions about things so he just let her be. "Ya..." she walked over to him half-happy that he wasn't a jerk about it. Sakura jumped on Naruto's back and peered over at Ino and Sasuke, "DARN YOU PIG!" Hinata flinched, that WAS her best friend weather Sakura liked it or not and she REALLY didn't want to hear her talking about her like that.

"Sakura san...please don't call her that around me..." Sakura turned to Hinata quickly, raised and eye brow and started to twitch. She was with Naruto for 3 WHOLE days and NOW had to watch how she talked about Ino!? This was INSANE! "..." She didn't know what to tell Hinata, she didn't want to hurt her feeling's or anything so, staying quiet was the best thing. Naruto had hearts in his eyes, he was sooo happy that Sakura was hanging off him like that but noticed how Hinata was uncomfortable around them. "Hey hey! How about we all go into the meeting room together!" Sakura shrugged, pulled Hinata by the hand softly...hey she was Ino's friend maybe she could get some info on why she's acting how she is. "Let's go Hinata Chan..."

Everyone was finally in the auditorium and it wasn't...as big as it looked on the outside. The room was small and smelt like...BO (body odder =P ) and Ino couldn't STAND IT! "All right," A young girl had entered the room with a roll call sheet, "can you all please pile in this room! I'm sorry it's so small but I didn't know so many of you were going to show..." All the students sweat-dropped. Not going to show? Was she crazy! By this time she sweat-dropped. "Please elbow to elbow if you have to..." Kiba was in some mood because he kept shoving people out of the way like he owned the place.

"Once you guys are all into your seats I can check who's all here..." she young lady stood there watching as everyone came in and sat. When everyone was seated she looked around the room. One half was all boys and the other half...all girls. "So are you people all chickens? I want you guys all with your teams! Come on! Hurry it up..." Again Kiba started to shove people out of the way, a few girls were screaming claming a bug jumped on them..."That would be Shino..." Ino thought. As she made her way to Sasuke he was standing in a corner...he looked so cute and cool. [He can so pull off the cool look!] Ino thought to herself.

But..She didn't like him. [Mental note to self! no matter how cute he looks your over him! over over OV-] "Ino..." "Huh?" Sasuke was now standing in front of her with lazy eyes. He grabbed her softly by the arm and guided her to two seats. [The faster she sits the fast I'm out of here!] Sasuke was now freaking out! All these weird looking girls were ALL OVER HIM! One with bad breath, one with messed up teeth the other with NO HAIR! What was this world coming to! Ino was in a daze...it was like she was falling in love with him all over again. He was just WAY to perfect...or so she thought.

Sasuke's eye twitched as he held out the chair for Ino to sit and she was just staring at him. "........" He decided to sit her his self. "...Sit." he lifted her up and she went BAM on the seat. "Ita..." MAYBE he wasn't AS perfect as she thought. She was elbow to elbow with him moments later in the waiting room but since it was so crowded all of them had squish into the room like sardines! [Man...Why does it have to be so CROWDED in HERE!] She took glances at Sasuke. He looked rather annoyed with everything...he didn't like the fact that EVERYONE was all over him and there were girl he didn't even know DROOLING over his head.

"Yo!" Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurena had all appeared. "FINALLY!" A random person yelled. Kakashi placed one hand in back of his neck and smiled slightly, "Sorry we were later...there's kind of a change in plans..." Sakura squealed! MAYBE Kakashi saw it her way! Sasuke NEEDED to be by her side ALL the time! Before she could celebrate Asuma wink at Ino, "Were not changing teams either! Just.... A change in plans..." Sakura fell over in her chair and stood up rapidly, "THEN WHAT IS IT?! Now I have to spend a WEEK with them!?" Kakashi turned to everyone still smiling..."Well...."
