SCENE CHANGE
Chapter Six - Matchmakers?
Hinata leaned against her locker, nodding occasionally to show she was still listening. Temari stood beside her going on and on about the latest gossip. Hinata turned her head towards the other side of the hall. A soft smile came upon her face. Across the hall, was Naruto, Kiba, Shikamaru, Gaara, and Chouji. Her heart started to beat fast when he raised his hand up and waved. She waved back. The more she was getting to know him, the more she liked him.
"Hinata? Are you listening?" Temari asked. She then saw Hinata looking towards the boys and seeing her brother nod, she waved back with a smile.
On the other side of the hall..
Shikamaru looked at her as she waved smiling. 'How troublesome.'
Sakura and Ino, who had witnessed the whole thing, had come up with a plan. With an evil grin on their faces, they started to plan 'Operation: Matchmakers'.
"Okay so we already know who likes who right?" Ino whispered. Sakura nodded.
"It works out perfectly. So, who should we start with?"
"Neji and Tenten. Tenten has liked Neji for longer than the other two. So I think she deserves to go first."
"Okay! Operation: Matchmakers : Double T and Jeni."
"...What the hell? What kind of name is that?"
"A good one! Now shush. Hinata and Temari are coming."
"Hey Sakura! Hey Ino!" Temari yelled.
"Um, do you know where Tenten is?" Hinata asked, waving.
"I think she said she was sick today." Sakura replied.
"Let's go visit her today!" Ino exclaimed. Looking at Sakura, she raised her eyebrows with a smirk on her face.
Hinata and Temari nodded. "We can just meet up there after school."
The sound of rushing students reminded them to go to class.
"You guys go ahead. We'll be right behind you." Ino smiled. She then turned to Sakura. "I know exactly what to do. Let's get some other to help."
Sakura nodded her heads towards the boys. Ino's smile widend.
"Gaara! Kiba! Chouji!"
ACTUAL PLANNING
After school, the group of five friends sat in the livingroom of Kiba's and Sakura's. A piece of paper lay on the coffee table with scribblings of words and pictures.
Sakura took a deep breath, and picked up the paper. "So! So far for our Double T and Jeni-"
"I still think it's a stupid name.." Ino muttered.
Sakura glared at Ino for a bit, then continued talking. "We are going to use a note. Since Double T already likes Jen, it won't be much of a problem. But! The problem is Jeni, doesn't appear to like Double T, or anyone else infact."
Kiba sighed. "Yeah. yeah. We know already. You were talking out loud when you wrote it down."
"Nice job genius." Ino snorted.
"Pig." Sakura stuck her tongue out at Ino. The small 'exchange of words' suddenly became a glaring contest. "I'm going to explain it again. Incase someone didn't understand." She shot a glance at Ino as she said this. Making sure Ino saw.
Ino growled. Chouji ate. Kiba yawned. Sakura grinned. And Gaara?
IN THE KITCHEN
"Stupid can.." Gaara muttered, turning the can in different directions.
In one hand was the can opener.
The other the can.
On the counter top was four other cans of everybody's favorite Chicken Noodle Soup.
.o.o.o.
"We are going to write a note. Yes Kiba, I know you know. This note is going to say something like 'Meet me blah blah at blah blah at blah.' Okay?"
"And we need one for each." Ino added. "Since I know Double T the best, I'll write her note to Jeni. Who knows Jeni's handwriting fairly well?"
Complete silence..
Sakura twitched. "Where's Shino? And if he can't do it, then we'll have to go to..."
"...Sasuke?" Chouji suggested.
"Yepp, okay Ino, write the note, Kiba, go find Shino, me, Gaara and Chouji are going to get Sasuke."
"Yeah! Hands in!" Ino yelled sticking her palm face down in the center. The others stared at her weirdly. Ino pouted. "I just never got to do this at the right time."
"Fine.." Sakura said, also putting her hand in. Two hands followed after. "Gaara?"
"Soups ready!" Gaara grinned, putting his hand in afterwards.
.o.o.o.
Tenten panted at she swung her tennis racket again. The ball bounced back from the wall. Another swing.
"Oi! Tenten! I brought you som-" A tennis racket followed by a tennis ball slammed against the persons arm.
"Oh my god I'm sorry!" Tenten said. "You scared me."
Sakura rubbed her left arm wincing. "I'm okay. Nice going Ino." She said sarcastically
Ino stiffled a laugh, handing Tenten a mini box. "Thanks."
"So what are you two doing here?" Tenten asked. 'Pot stickers...looks homemade. What are they up to?' Tenten
"Why are you looking at us like that?" Sakura pouted, seeing Tenten raise her eyebrows at them. "Can't we visit one of our bestfriends, give her food, and not be considered weird?"
The bun haired girl snorted. "Hinata can, but you two, no."
Ino stuck her tongue at her in reply. "Well, we were just wondering if you could give this to Neji?"
"Why...?" Tenten raised her eyebrows.
"Shino asked us to, and since we don't see him much, we figured you did. Ow, I think I need to go to the nurse." Sakura took a look at her arm and her she glared at the big bruise that was forming. Ino and Tenten took a look at it and winced.
"Yeah. Sucks. It's almost picture day. We should go buy you some cover-up." Ino stated. Ino shoved a note into Tenten's hand. "Oh yeah! Thanks for agreeing to give him the note Tenten! We have to go to the mall!"
Tenten stared at the note in her hand. She opened her mouth to say something, but stopped. No pink or bleach blonde in sight. 'I wonder what it says.. I don't think they'd mind. NO! Don't do it. Your invading someones privacy. Aw hell with it.' After a minute or two with debating with herself Tenten decided no one would know if she opened it or not.
She uncrumpled the piece of lined paper and her jaw dropped to the floor.
INO SAKURA KIBA GAARA SHINO CHOUJI AND SASUKE
"I think we did good." Ino smirked. The rest of the group agreeing with her. "Nice act forehead-girl. Adding some confusement."
Sakura glared at Ino. "That wasn't an act. You try getting hit by a tennis racket swung by Double T. Anyways, how did the Jeni part go?"
"I still think it's a stupid name."
"Shut up."
Chouji stuffed a chip into his mouth. "I'd say it didn't go as well as planned."
FLASHBACK
"Yo Neji!" Kiba yelled waving to the Hyuuga.
"What do you want?" Neji glared at Kiba, Gaara, Sasuke, and Chouji.
"Sakura told me to give this to you, to give to Tenten." Gaara replied back with the same cold tone Neji used.
"Why doesn't the annoying girl just give it herself?" Neji snorted.
"Just give it to her." Sasuke growled. A glaring contest started between the two. After a few minutes, Sasuke handed Neji the note and left.
The remaining of the group grinned nervously. Minus Gaara of course.
"Bye!" They quickly dashed off. Chouji rolled into a nearby bush. Waiting for Neji to open the note. Which he never did.
END FLASHBACK
"Annoying!" Sakura huffed.
Ino slapped her forehead. "He didn't read it. Just great. What if Tenten actually gives Neji the note. What if Neji doesn't read the note."
Sasuke ran his hand through his hair with his poker face on. "Just wait to see what happens."
"Yeah."
"Mhm."
"Okay."
"Fine."
"Whatever."
"..."
"Why is Sasuke here?"
NEJI AKA JENI
'This can be blackmail on the annoying pink girl.' Neji snorted opening the folded paper.
The Hyuuga had sensed presence around earlier, and decided to wait until the person left to read it.
WHO? -S
We shouldn't be passing notes... - H
Ahh it's fine, it's not like they notice. -I
Hyuuga eh..? -T
Meet me in the field after school. Let's talk about your crush. P -Sakura
Neji stared at it for a long time. Most of it was scribbled out. After a while he sighed. 'Another annoying girl. The first letter of their names put together spell shit... How interesting.'
TENTEN AKA DOUBLE T
"That was...surprising." Tenten said quietly to herself. She look down and re-read the note for the tenth time.
Why Kamatze?
I like her.
You live with her.
I know.
Ask her out.
We are acting like preteens. It's immature.
Whatever. Just do it.
Sure. She didn't know exactly what it meant, but it had her name on it. Who knows? Maybe Shino liked her. Or Neji. Who else lived with her? But then again, he had millions of better girls he could've chose from. But hey, a girl can always dream.
Tenten sighed. 'I need to talk to someone about this.'
She started to walk back to her 'house' when she stopped. The brunette ripped the note and threw it on the ground.
After a few minutes she sat down on her rolly chair and turned on her computer. She was glad the daycare at the school, ended around 6. If not, Akina would've learned some new potty words.
Time to go on art pad.
A/N: Okay late update. REALLY late update. I really have no excuse except for my laziness. I have an actual idea of what to do now. Sorta. Anyways, next update in like maybe a month? Heh heh. Or less? Maybe if I get threats. But my reviewers are too nice. Oh yeah. And sorry about the shortness of the chapter. I didn't want to spoil the idea. Barely edited: 10.01.2006
