2 Weeks Later-The Dance and the Feelings Revealed

2 WEEKS LATER

It was the night of the dance. All of the friends had dates. Sasuke of course had Sakura, Neji had Tenten, and just a week ago, Naruto finally got the nerve to ask Hinata. It wasn't a formal dance. It was casual, so they didn't really worry about picking out what to wear. During the past 2 weeks, the guys became like brothers, beating on eachother from time to time. Usually Neji and Sasuke would team up on Naruto.

Neji and Sasuke got their fair share of fan girls trying to ask them to go to the dance. Sasuke found Ino to be the most annoying. She had 2 crushes and both of them didn't really feel fond of her, except maybe one. The other crush she had, Shikamaru, was a lazy genius. She always thought he was cute and everything, but never really paid any attention since she thinks Sasuke has to be hers. If she even paid the slightest bit of attention, she would notice that Shikamaru kind of admired her.

Anyways, back to the main group.

The boys would pick them up at Sakura's house at 7:30 pm. The clock currently read 6:25. They each took showers and put on something comfortable. Sakura wore a pink tank top with a loose black skirt going to just about her knees. She put on some make up which made her look like a sight for sore eyes.

Tenten wore a white, very thin shirt that didn't have any sleeves, but wrapped around her neck, and black long comfortable pants. She put on make up like Sakura while Hinata got dressed. Hinata wore a blue t-shirt under her 3 button sweater and tight pink bell bottoms.

All the girls wore comfortable sneakers since they would be dancing. When they were done, the clock read 7:15. So they took the time to watch a little TV and talk. Then at 7:29, the door bell rang. Sakura immediately got up and saw Sasuke, Neji and Naruto standing there. Naruto had a wide smile, Neji had a small visible smile and Sasuke had a smirk.

Naruto wore a plain orange t-shirt and light blue jeans, Neji had a white button up shirt with the 2 buttons at the top undone and baggy blue jeans, and Sasuke had a tight black shirt that had no sleeves, which revealed his muscular body, and wore dark blue baggy jeans.

Sakura and her friends stared in awe because of how hot their dates looked. They embraced their dates tightly and rode in Sasuke's car to the school.

The dance was very lively. Strobe lights, disco balls, hip hop, rap, slow songs etc;

Naruto dragged Hinata to the dance floor and started to dance to the song "I Like That" by Houston.

Neji and Tenten walked over to the dance floor and did a few moves. They were enjoying each others company.

"Wanna dance Sasuke-kun?" She had to yell a little since it was loud.

"No."

"Please! It's a dance! And last time I checked, dances are for dancing!" she dragged Sasuke to the dance floor right as the song ended. Then in came a slow song, "If Your Not The One" by Daniel Bedingfield. (Maybe it's a little TOO slow.) Sakura was about to leave because she knew Sasuke didn't like slow dances and being so close kind of made her nervous, but was stopped when Sasuke grabbed her wrist.

"Wait." He said looking up. He had passion in his eyes, and they weren't bluntly cold.

Sakura blushed and faced towards Sasuke. He embraced her and wrapped his arms around her waist. Sakura decided to follow along and she wrapped her arms around Sasuke's neck. They started dancing slowly. She looked over to Naruto and Hinata, and they were in the same position, but Hinata was resting her head on his chest. Neji and Tenten were doing it as well, but Tenten rested her head on his shoulders since she was a bit taller, but not taller than Neji.

Sasuke was staring at her passionately. She stared back into his dark onyx eyes and was caught in a daze. She rested the top of her head under his chin and he rested his chin on the top of her head. That moment seemed like it lasted forever until the song was over and in came another energetic song. The couples broke apart. Naruto, Hinata, Neji and Tenten kept dancing, while Sasuke and Sakura walked out on the balcony. It was empty since people were having too much fun and weren't really tired yet. They just wanted to be alone. Sakura rested her elbows on the balcony edge and stared at the huge, bright moon. Then from behind, Sasuke embraced her in a warm hug. Sakura didn't know that Sasuke had another side. So compassionate, and romantic.

"Arigato…Sasuke-kun." They were rocking back and forth slowly. (Actually, side to side.)

"Nani? What for?" Sasuke asked still embracing her from behind.

"For asking me here." She smiled and closed her eyes. Sasuke gave out a small smile. She brushed some of Sakura's hair away from her neck and whispered in her ear.

"Iie…arigato…for accepting." He said it so softly. She could feel his breath on her neck. It tickled her slightly. The moon shone so brightly on them. It was happening so fast. They arrived here 10 minutes ago and already, Sasuke was embracing her like a lover would. She was deep in thought when she felt Sasuke gently turn her towards him and planted a kiss on her lips. Sakura was shocked at his actions…and yet…so overjoyed. It was warm, full of feeling. It was a TRUE kiss.

She returned the kiss. Time stopped for them. The kiss was so full of meaning. It wasn't Sasuke, cold hearted and emotionless…it was Sasuke, full of love and passion.

The kiss broke off so they could breathe. Sakura still had her eyes closed. She opened them, only to see his face so close to hers, his eyes opened and staring directly at her.

"Sasuke-kun…" she wanted to touch his face, but they were so close, she couldn't move. And truthfully, she didn't want to.

"Sakura." He said her name so softly and embraced her tighter, but not too tight. Just enough so that she got the message that he didn't want to let go or separate. His heart was like a soft lullaby. Beating into her ear. Tonight was their night…just for them.

NARUTO AND HINATA

They were still dancing since Naruto was full of energy. But Hinata was getting kind of tired.

"N-naruto-kun…" Her voice was soft. When Naruto heard his name, he stopped and smiled at the timid Hyuuga.

"Wanna stop a while?" He rubbed the back of his head and laughed sheepishly.

"H-hai…" She blushed. Naruto took her hand and led her off the dance floor. They sat at an empty table and decided to get some food because they didn't really eat anything before they came. They walked over to the table that had bundles of food. A little fat kid was helping himself to everything. Naruto recognized him as the guy who sat behind him in class who was always eating chips. He just sighed it off and went with Hinata to get some food.

Naruto had chosen a glass of punch, 2 half cut sandwiches, a little piece of cake, a huge piece of fudge brownie and a bread roll. Hinata had 2 half cut sandwiches, a cookie and a bread roll. She really didn't like eating a lot.

"Oi, Hinata-chan! Are you having fun?" Naruto asked stuffing the sandwiches in his face.

"H-hai…" She ate her sandwiches slowly. She actually wasn't really enjoying the dance. She was enjoying being with Naruto. Naruto noticed how sad she looked, so he decided to have a little alone time with Hinata.

"Hey! Let's go to the back room! It's quiet in there and we can talk." He gave out a foxy smile. Hinata blushed. Naruto ACTUALLY wanted to be alone with her.

After they ate, they threw their plates away and Naruto led her to the back room. It was very quiet. Hardly anyone went back there. It was pretty dark, with only a blue light, and it was very plain. There were just a couch and a few wooden chairs, plus a small table in the middle.

"Sit here next to me!" He grinned. She did so and blushed madly again.

"Haha! You're cute when you blush Hinata-chan!" he smirked. Hinata blushed like mad!

"N-n-n-n-naruto-kun!" She was stuttering more than ever. He moved his face closer to hers, still smirking.

"What's wrong? Might I ask why you're so nervous around me?"

"U-uh…" Hinata was lost for words.

"Heh. Come on. I'll admit first then Hinata. I really like you…well, actually, more than like! I think you're really cute!" Hinata couldn't stand it anymore. She almost fainted! But Naruto caught her and pulled her towards his chest. He embraced her tightly, refusing to let go.

"Na-N-Naruto-kun…" Naruto pulled away to hear what Hinata had to say.

"I-I-I-I…….. r-really like……… y-y-y-you t-too." Hinata couldn't believe what she said. She covered her mouth with her palm and then blushed…again. More than ever. Naruto smiled at this and pulled her face closer. His lips met hers. It was the best moment of Hinata's life. Her and Naruto…locking lips…kissing. She would treasure that moment forever. It felt so warm. She then felt Naruto wrapping his right arm around her torso and his left one caressing her face.

They both were kind of unbalanced, so they fell over. Hinata on top, Naruto on bottom.

They broke apart. Naruto chuckled a little staring up at Hinata who was just blushing. Her face was like a very bright tomato with white eyes. Naruto just stared for while. In a daze. He lifted his head to her ear and whispered the most romantic words she would ever hear.

"Aishiteru, Hinata-chan." At these words, Hinata froze. Did he really say that? Was this a dream?...No, this was real. This was the real thing.

Hinata was bursting with joy, but all she could do was cry. She cried tears of joy and fell into Naruto's chest.

"A-arigato N-n-naruto-kun." She stuttered between sobs. He held her in his arms, never letting go.

NEJI AND TENTEN

"Whew! I'm tired! Can we take a little break Neji-kun?" Tenten asked, wiping her forehead. He just nodded and followed her off the dance floor. But things didn't go that smoothly.

"Hey baby! Wanna do some, dirty dancing?" A guy asked Tenten, licking his lips and spanking her. Oh my goodness. Bad bad BAD idea…

"Back off!" Neji scowled at him. The guy just smirked. He was big. Kinda fat, and kinda muscular. He had a big chin and very very thin brown hair that stopped right under his ears. He wore a baggy green shirt and baggy jeans. Neji recognized him as Takato. Not someone you would want to pick a fight with, but Neji wanted to beat the crap out of him for touching Tenten like that.

"Back off puny! I'm only interested in the girl!" He said trying to push Neji aside, but Neji didn't budge. Neji may have been small, but he packed a punch. He was holding up his hand (His fighting position.). "Oh I see!" Takato said smirking. He put of his fists which obviously meant he accepted his challenge. Everyone was backing off and circling them. Tenten stayed behind Neji, hoping he wouldn't be beat. Most of the crowd were chanting "Fight!". Sasuke, Sakura, Hinata and Naruto were both finished with their love session, so they came out and started cheering for Neji.

"You're in trouble puny!" Takato yelled charging at Neji, trying to punch him, but Neji was too fast. He easily dodged it and did his 89 years of death attack. Takato fell to the ground, grasping his stomach. Neji didn't hit any of his vital organs, nor did he hit him that hard, so he didn't cough blood. "Y-you're……..g-gonna……" Takato struggled to get up, but managed to do so. "Arrrrr……..YOU'RE GONNA GET IT PUNK!" Takato launched forward again.

"Fool." Neji was getting tired of this. He held out his hand. Once Takato's face got into reach, he grabbed it and slammed it into the ground. Takato's head was very small since he wasn't really what you would call an 'A' student. The back of Takato's face was bleeding slightly. It made a big dent in the ground.

"Hmph." The room was quiet. They never knew Neji packed such a wallop. "Hey, lets leave." Neji said coldly, glaring at those guys who were staring at him. The gang simply nodded and started walking with him. The crowd made way for them, because they didn't want to get beat like Takato. Takato was supposedly the strongest guy in the school, and no one never beat like Neji did. Tenten was quiet. She would wait for Neji to talk. Instead of talking, Neji grabbed her hand gently, which caused her to walk next to him. She simply smiled in her head and kept walking.
