Chapter 5-Shopping

By Crash

"I'm not going to take you two shopping!"

Kakashi sat down on the edge of his bed. The two girls were laying on it and pouting at him.

"But Tsunade-obasan told you to!" Fade whined rolling over. Crash pushed her off the bed.

Kakashi tried to glare at them. Crash was attempting to take up as much space as possible, while Fade tried to push her off.

"You are not sleeping here." He scowled.

"Buuuuht Kakashi-kun! You know you want me too!" Crash said. Fade glared at her and Kakashi ignored her.

"You can go shopping with Sakura." Kakashi smirked at them. He had noticed how his student seemed threatened by the girls.

"That sounds like fun." Fade said sarcastically.

Kakashi stood up and left, Fade following him instantly, Crash a few steps behind. He tossed the bag of money to Crash.

"I'm going to drop you off with her. She knows where all the good stores are." He grabbed their hands and they disappeared in a poof, re-appearing where Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura were training.

"Back so soon?" Sakura asked brightly.

"Sakura," Kakashi said waving her over. "Take these two shopping will you? I don't know of any good stores, and I'm going to assume that they'll need some clothes of they're staying for a while."

Sakura smiled, though it was very strained. She did not want to shop with these two. But Kakashi had asked her to, and she might be able to figure something out about them if she went. She wouldn't go alone though.

Sakura had insisted that no shopping expedition would be complete without Ino. They were fortunate enough to find her not very far from the training area, yelling at her teammates.

"Konnichi-wa Ino-chan!" Sakura shouted waving.

"Sakura-chan, hey!" Ino smiled, returning the wave.

After a short introduction, Ino was excited for a chance to shop. Crash was actually beginning to like the blond girl. They all chatted about fashion and the weather as they walked to a store Ino had suggested. Shikamaru and Chouji walked away in the opposite direction, glad to be rid of Ino.

As the four girls stepped into the little store, a very bored looking girl behind the counter looked over her magazine and mentioned that they were having a buy one get one free special on tank tops.

"This is definitely the best store in Konoha!" Ino declared, presenting it to them with a big wave of her arm.

"Looks pretty cool." Fade mused, picking at something fuzzy on the nearest clothes rack that was a horrible shade of pink.

Sakura pointed at the back of the store, grabbing Ino by the arm and saying something about a skirt that she needed to have, and dragged her over there, leaving Crash and Fade with the pink thing. Crash went to look at something, and Fade kept staring at the fuzzy pink fabric in horror.

"So, what are they doing here?" Ino whispered.

"I have no idea! They just came out of nowhere, following Naruto, in those horrible outfits." Sakura hissed back.

"So?" Ino asked, "I don't see what-"

"So? What do you mean? 'So?' Ino-"

"Shh, Sakura, you're getting loud,"

"-sorry, Ino, I think the short one is trying to seduce Sasuke-kun!"

"What? Where did you get that from?"

"You should have seen her! She was holding his hand! And the taller one started yelling at him like she knew him or something!"

Ino stared at Sakura incredulously.

"Not to mention they were getting all cozy with Kakashi-sensei! They're staying at his house. They could be assassins, or something! They might be planning to assassinate Sasuke and Kakashi!"

"Saku-chan?" Crash shouted, "Do you think this is cute?" she held up a shirt that looked like a lawnmower had rolled over it.

"Yea! You should get it!" Sakura shouted, but then out of the corner of her mouth, whispered to Ino, "If she wants to look like she's homeless."

A few moments later, Fade and Crash went into the dressing rooms to try on their findings

"Crash," fade said pulling on a red shirt, "Sakura doesn't seem to like us very much. That and she thinks I'm in love with Sasuke-baka or something."

Crash nodded. "I heard every word they were saying."

"I don't see anything wrong with staying at Kakashi-sensei's place."

The two blonde Kunoichi were standing outside the dressing rooms listening to the other girls' conversation.

"Well, Fade-chan, I think Sasuke has a bit of a crush on you!" Crash teased, and the next moment, a plastic hanger met her head. "Damn it! That hurt!" Fade continued to lob hangers over the dressing room separator most of them meeting their mark.

After their shopping adventure, Sakura, Ino, Fade, and Crash walked along, Crash and Fade holding paper bags with a few outfits each.

"What do you think about Sasuke?" Ino asked.

"He's an idiot," Fade said without hesitation. Sakura and Ino looked slightly relieved.

"Better than I expected him to be," Crash mused. Fade elbowed her, and coughed. "-I mean, on first impression you know? He looked like a stuck up kid at first!" This only caused Ino and Sakura to become more suspicious.

"Oh, really? How's so? Sakura asked.

"Uh, why are we talking about him anyway?" Crash scratched the back of her head. "Besides, it's not like I like him. There's somebody I do like. And it's definitely not him. He's too young. Younger than my sister! So don't worry about it." Fade stared at her.

"Then who do you like?" Ino asked.

"Ah! There's the house!" Fade shouted. "Well, we've gotta go now, so see you two around!"

"We'll do this again sometime!" Crash smiled waving at them, as Fade opened the front door and they both disappeared inside.

: D

"This is so unbelievably cool! We're here, in Kakashi's house, he's real, everything actually exists! Kakashi is so much hotter than I ever imagined!" Fade squealed, glomping her friend.

'I was a bit disappointed, he's shorter than I imagined' Crash thought.

"That and Ino and Sakura are jealous of us! Isn't it hilarious?" They both broke out into giggles.

"Ugh! I feel like a fan girl!" Crash laughed.

"Do you think we might be able to see Kakashi's face?" Fade gasped. Crash nodded.

"What time is it? I'm hungry…" she went into the kitchen and started rummaging around for something to eat.

"I wonder what part of the timeline we're in." Fade sat down on the table. "Seeing as to how Sasuke-baka is here, it's before the Chunnin exam."

"That's what I was thinking, and after their mission in the wave country." Crash nodded.

Poof!

Fade fell off the table and Crash jumped hitting her head on an open cabinet door.

"Shit!" Crash yelled. "Scare me to 'effing death and back why don't you?" Fade was crawling back onto the table, pouting.

"I think I broke my butt."

"You can't break a butt." Crash scowled, rubbing the top of her head.

"You're one to talk, considering you can't go a week without ending up in the ER at least once."

"Girls-"

"It wasn't my fault I got a concussion! Besides, it only happened once!"

"Fade, Crash-"

"Whatever. There's a reason everyone calls you Crash!"

"Hey, don't make me come over there! I have a spoon!" Crash declared, pulling a plastic spoon out of her pocket and pointing it at Fade.

"Where did that come from? -And what do you plan on doing? Shoveling my spleen out?"

"I think I've had it in my pocket since last week- And if it comes to that-"

"STOP!" Kakashi yelled, causing both girls to look at him as if they just noticed he was in the room.

"Sorry!" They both said at the same time.

"I'm hungry." Kakashi muttered.

Kakashi ended up having to cook them all a fancy dinner of instant ramen.

"So neither of you knows how to cook." Kakashi sighed, placing his chopsticks neatly over the empty Styrofoam cup. Fade and Crash were gaping at him; he had eaten so fast they didn't even catch a glimpse of his face. Crash had been attempting to snag the slippery noodles on her chopsticks.

'Great,' Kakashi thought. 'I have two useless free loaders living in my house.' Both he and Fade were watching Crash attempting to 'eat'. She had given up on the chopsticks and was using the spoon she had found.

"That's gross." Fade said sticking out her tongue. She had no problem with using the chopsticks.

"How was shopping?" Kakashi asked, trying not to think about where that spoon could have been in the last week.

"Oh it was fun! We got such cool outfits!" Fade said excitedly, as Crash nodded.

"Did you get everything you need?"

Fade started to nod fervently, but suddenly frowned.

"What?" Crash and Kakashi asked at the same time.

"Craaash!" Fade whined grabbing Crash's arm and pulling her over to whisper in her ear. "We didn't get any underwear!" This didn't seem to bother Crash too much.

"Oh well, we can just go commando! No big deal," she said brightly. Causing Kakashi to blush.

"You're so loud!" Fade said hitting her.

"Well I guess we'll have to go back and get some, I don't like wearing the same ones for more than a day at a time, without washing them you know? It's not hygienic," she stated. Fade and Kakashi looked horrified.

Crash looked at them.

"What are you gaping at? Let's go to the store! Wanna come Kakashi-kun?"

"Crash, stop it, you're embarrassing!"

Crash started to drag Fade out the front door and Kakashi followed along.

"Panty shopping is fun! Let's pick out really cute ones!" Crash shouted.

: o

Heh, there you go. Chapter 5. Panty shopping really is fun. I like the lacy kind. They're fun.

Review! Yay!

Luv, Crash
