Okie dokie! I really must stop saying that when I start a chapter… and alrighty… oh well who cares! DISCLAIMER!

Disclaimer- I do not own Naruto and I never will… unless I steal it… which I'll get caught doing because I'm telling everyone this… so… yeah…

Chapter 4- Man it's starting to get a little crowded in here…

Tenten's mother woke up early the next morning to make breakfast. She looked over towards the couch and saw that Hinata was resting with Neji and Tenten on the couch as well. Her eyes began to tear up at the scene she witnessed.

Neji's head was once again rested on top of Tenten, who was resting on his shoulder and chest. Her arms were wrapped around his chest as his arm was over her shoulders.

'So sweet…' her mother sniffed as she went into the kitchen and began making breakfast.

Tenten woke from his sleep and felt like she was resting on a warm pillow. She rubs her eyes and focuses that she was asleep on Neji… AGAIN! Before she could try to pry free from the grip, Neji gripped her like a teddy bear and snuggled closer to her head.

'Oh hell… might as well enjoy the moment…' Tenten sniffed as she went back to sleep. Hinata watched Tenten wake up and fall back to sleep and she smiled. She quietly stood up from the couch and decided to go into the kitchen and get a glass of water.

Meanwhile…

Maito Gai was walking sadly behind Kakashi and Asuma the early morning. His hands were tied together and the other two jounin held the end of the ropes tightly.

"That was the most embarrassing thing I've ever had to do…" Asuma groaned. Kakashi was busily reading his favorite book for the hundredth time in his life. "Why did you harass that old lady for in the Sand's village huh!"

"Usually old people are the sources for deadly cures! Since she was old, she had to know the cure!" Gai defended himself.

"Good God.," Asuma covered his face with his free hand.

"Well," Kakashi closed his book and faced the green beast, " the Hokage prohibits you from leaving the village for a few months because of this incident. So as soon as we enter the gates, we'll free you." Gai hung his head low until they reached the village. Asuma cut the ropes and Gai was free to go.

"Now what am I going to do… Lee is going to die because I can't find a cure for that evil disease…" Gai began to cry his dramatic cry. "Don't worry Lee! Tenten's mother is a retired med-nin! She MUST know the cure!" With that, Gai began to race to Tenten's place.

On the way there, he stopped dead in his tracks when he noticed that Kakashi's team, Asuma's team, Kiba, and Shino were walking slowly and palely down an empty path. All but Shino (for he already had the disease and he was taking through a path to get to the hospital and not get other people sick) stopped and collapsed to the ground exhausted.

"OH no! They had the deadly disease, too!" Gai panicked and ran towards them. "NO WORRY YOU DYING FLAMES OF YOUTH! MAITO GAI IS HERE TO RESCUE YOU!" He did his infamous nice-guy pose. (twinkle twinkle twinkle)

"No… not you…." Shikamaru coughed. Sasuke and Kiba's eyes widened in fear.

"Must…. Run…" Naruto tried to drag himself into the direction they just came from.

"You all have the same disease Lee has! I'll find you all a cure as well!" Gai began to pick the teens up one by one over his shoulders. "I'LL SAVE YOU ALL!"

"I'm not sick," Shino replied flatly. Gai ignored the bug-infested child and sped towards Tenten's house.

Neji, Hinata, and Tenten quietly enjoyed their breakfast Tenten's mother served them. Hinata just explained to her cousin on how she got sick and was sent here over night.

"So you ran into Naruto, who must have caught it from Sakura, who caught it from Tenten, who got it from Lee…" Neji said as he began to sneeze. Hinata nodded silently. "If I ever see that stupid blonde kid around here, I'll tear his head off…" As if on cue, Gai broke the door open and stood in the doorway with a dramatic pose. He carried 8 teenagers on his back and he was panting heavily.

"What in heaven's name is going on in there?" Tenten's mother ran out the kitchen and saw Gai still standing there holding the sick teens.

"I HAVE COME TO YOU… err… TENTEN'S MOTHER, TO HELP ME FIND THE CURE FOR THESE DYING FLAMES OF YOUTH!"

"Please…" Sasuke rubbed his nose, "for the love of God… get us away from this man…"

"Honestly Maito Gai! All they need in a little medicine and a lot of bed rest. Just leave them here so I can distribute them some medication." Tenten's mother scolded. Gai obeyed and dropped them on the ground like rocks.

"Oww…." Chouji whined.

"My hip… someone landed on my hip!" Ino whined as well.

"Too tired to move…" Kiba coughed out.

"Come on now. Let's get you in the living room." Tenten's mother (Man… am I tired of writing that…) helped them up one by one.

"DON'T DIE ON US FLAMES OF YOUTH! YOU'RE OUR GENERATION!" Gai began to cry a river of tears.

"Good bye Gai," Tenten kicked the crazed sensei out her house and fixed the door closed. "Now… to make more breakfast…"

In the living room, Neji, Tenten, Hinata, Naruto, and Ino sat on the same couch while Sasuke, Sakura, Kiba, Shikamaru, Chouji, and Shino sat on the floor.

"I don't need this. I'm not even sick," Shino rose from his sitting position and folded the blanket Tenten's mother gave to him. "People these days… no common sense what so ever…" With more mutters, Shino exited the house to head back home.

"… This is… sudden…" Tenten said to break the silence. "So we all caught the Flusious."

"No thanks to you, Sakura-chan," Naruto murmured too loudly as he snorted back in snot.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN!" Sakura shrieked. "Tenten's the reason I caught it!" She began to scratch her black spots.

"The one you guys should be blaming is Lee!" Neji coughed. "He's the one who started this whole thing!"

"There's no need of blaming Lee if you two are the morons that decided to go near him when he HAD the flu!" Shikamaru protested.

"Who are you calling a moron!" Both Neji and Tenten threw their voices out.

"Don't yell out our teammate like that!" Ino and Chouji threw their voices out as they began to scratch. Everyone but Sasuke and Hinata began to bicker at one another. Their voices got louder and louder and they got angrier and angrier. The ninjas began pulling out weapons and strolls of the sort until Tenten's mother jumped at the scene.

"MEDICINE TIME!" She yelled and threw needles at each teen's right arm. They all hit because they had no time to react. Within minutes, all of them fell back to their positions and were off soundly to sleep.

"And I thought one teenage child was bad enough. Good thing I was a jounin…" She murmured to herself as she left the apartment to shop for more food.

So… how was THIS chapter? I wrote it all while I was in my summer classes on my lousy laptop.
