They all gathered at Uchiha mansion for a Christmas Party.
"Why my house?" Sasuke asked irritated.
"Because it's the biggest," Naruto replied.
"I don't want it at my house," Shikamaru stated.
"It's fun to irritate you," Kakashi implied.
"Okay, we're starting with Karoake," Ino said in the middle of the living room with a microphone in hand.
"But we have to wait for Gaara and his girlfriend," Sakura stated.
Naruto twitched. "Gaara got a girlfriend before me," he said in disbelief.
"Well, maybe you didn't move fast enough," TenTen remarked.
"We're here!"
They all turned to see Gaara and his girlfriend standing in the doorway. She had blonde hair to her mid-back and hazel eyes.
"Merry Christmas," Gaara mumbled.
"Hi, I'm Zing Gasha," stated the girl.
"Nice to meet you," Hinata said.
Everyone else was speechless. Gaara, the Gaara, was dating a blonde-haired-girl. That was a twist.
"Now that we're all here, let's get this party started," Ino exclaimed.
After hanging up the mistletoe and holly, and the tree, which they decorated, it was time to sing.
The girls were in cute short Mrs. Clause outfits complete with Santa Claus hats (You've seen them right? The cute ones) "Okay, everyone have a seat," Sakura said.
Sasuke leaned against the wall, Neji was on the other side of the wall, Naruto was on the floor crossing his legs, Kakashi was on the couch with his book open, Shikamaru was on the couch sitting there lazily, Chouji was eating snacks in a recliner, Gaara was sitting on the loveseat with his girlfriend on his lap (Who can say AWW.) Lee was standing by the couch and all the other senseis and Tsunade were on various places.
The beat started to one of the favorites.
"Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight," TenTen started it off, Neji keeping an eye on her.
"Santa baby, an out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight," Ino sang, Shikamaru looking at her with one eye open.
"Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be oh so good
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Boo doo bee doo," Sakura sang now, Sasuke staring at her vividly.
"Santa honey, I wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight," Hinata sang timidly, Naruto bobbing his head.
"Santa cutie, there's one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight," TenTen sang her hips swaying.
"Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight," Ino sang with attitude only she could muster.
"Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo," Hinata sang pointing around the room.
"Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight," Sakura sang putting out her hand for emphasis.
"Hurry down the chimney tonight, hurry down the chimney tonight," finished all of the in unison, their faces aglow. They bowed and several people clapped.
"That was great, Hinata-chan!" Naruto clapped standing up.
Hinata blushed a deep red. "Thanks N-Naruto-kun," she muttered.
"Go Sakura-san!" Lee said smiling.
Sakura smiled. "Thanks Lee-san," she said.
"Well, what about me?" Ino asked.
"You were as good as these chips," Chouji replied pointing at the chips in his hand.
Ino smiled. "Thank you, Chouji," she stated.
"They're stale," Chouji remarked.
Ino's eyes went wide and she chased after her friend. "CHOUJI!" she bellowed.
Shikamaru shook his head. "They act as if they're toddlers," he mumbled.
"Who wants to go under the mistletoe?" Tsunade asked.
"Not with you Tsunade-baa-chan!" Naruto exclaimed.
"I wasn't meaning me!" Tsunade shouted.
Lee grabbed a bunch of mistletoe and looked at Sakura who was talking to TenTen. He grinned. 'This is my chance,' Lee thought. He ran up to Sakura so fast he bumped her into Sasuke, who was coincidentally beneath mistletoe.
"Look," TenTen said pointing up.
"NO!" Lee screamed Bloody Mary, tears running down his face.
"You know the tradition, Uchiha," Neji stated smirking.
Sakura blushed a deep crimson.
"Come on, Sasuke-teme, we're waiting," Naruto shouted.
Tsunade got out her camera.
Ino walked into the room and smiled. "Whoo hoo!" she exclaimed, "Come on, big-forehead."
Naruto started a beat on the table.
'Cha Cha Cha! Let's do this!" screamed Inner Sakura.
Tick, tock.
"You don't want to kiss him, Sakura-san," Lee insisted.
'Yes I do!' Inner Sakura stated.
"Get on with it already," Shikamaru said lazily.
Sasuke leaned closer to Sakura and gave her a peck on the lips. As he pulled back the whole crowd went cheering, besides Lee. Tsunade took a picture, smiling.
"About time," Gaara mumbled.
"So, when should we expect a little Uchiha heir?" Jiraiya asked.
Everyone looked at him with a blunt expression.
"Let's get back to singing," Ino exclaimed.
"Good idea," Sakura said.
"Want to join us, Gasha-san?" Hinata asked.
"Hell yeah!" Gasha exclaimed jumping out of Gaara's lap.
The song came blaring through the stereo.
The girls all sang the song in unison.
"Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun." Kakashi had gotten to his feet, dancing to the beat.
"Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air." The girls twirled in a circle.
"What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away.
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go riding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock." Even Neji was bobbing his head.
"Mix and a-mingle in the jingling beat
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell rock." Many were snapping their fingers, like Shikamaru.
They broke into applause once more and the girls were all smiles.
Naruto got onto the middle of the living room.
"What are you doing, dobe?" Sasuke questioned.
"I'm singing a song about someone who didn't fit in," he responded, snatching the microphone from Ino. "Hit it!"
"Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw him,
you would even say it glows." Everyone let out a sweatdrop but Hinata smiled.
"All of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer games."
"Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"" Everyone got into the song and Gaara's shoulders were moving to the rhythm.
"Then all the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
you'll go down in history!" Naruto punched the air. "Believe it!" he shouted.
"You are such a loser," Sasuke stated.
"Well at least I'm not a teme, teme!" Naruto hollered back.
"Can you two be civil with each other for once? It's Christmas," Kakashi questioned.
Ino grabbed the microphone back and announced it was to be the last song of the night.
"On the first day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree," Ino started the song off.
"On the second day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree," Sakura sang.
"On the third day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Three French hens,
Two turtledoves,
And a partridge in a pear tree." Hinata sang and Naruto smiled at her.
"On the fourth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree," TenTen then sang.
"On the fifth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtledoves,
And a partridge in a pear tree," Gasha sang looking at Gaara, who smiled weakly back.
"On the sixth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtledoves,
And a partridge in a pear tree," Ino then sang her second verse, Shikamaru keeping an eye on her.
"On the seventh day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree." Sakura sang.
"On the eighth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree," Hinata sang vividly.
"On the ninth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree," TenTen's turn.
"On the tenth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree," Gasha's eyes never leaving Gaara.
"On the eleventh day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree." Ino then sang, before all joined in.
"On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtledoves,
And a partridge in a pear tree!" The girls giggled in delight and bowed. There were whistles along with the loud applause.
The girls leaned back into the couches. "Time to eat," they said exhausted.
After they ate and their bellies were full, they all sat in the living room, just talking.
"So, how's the sand?" Naruto asked Gaara.
"Sandy," Gaara replied not looking at him.
"That's good," Naruto stated. "How'd you manage to get a girlfriend?"
Gaara's eye twitched and everyone glared at Naruto for his rudeness.
"We had a mission together once," Gasha responded.
"Oh."
"He's such a dobe," Sasuke commented about Naruto.
"Agreed," Neji stated.
"When does this thing end?" Sasuke questioned.
"Do you really want us to leave?" Ino asked.
"Yes," Sasuke replied coldly.
"Time to reveal our secret Santas!" Naruto exclaimed. All of the Konoha ninjas at the party had had to draw a name out of a hat and had to get that person a present. The presents were placed under the tree and had the receiver's name on it.
"I'll pass the presents out," Kakashi stated giving everyone his or her gift.
"Who wants to go first?" Tsunade asked.
Gai ripped his open. "Boxing gloves!" he shouted picking up the gloves and flashing a shiny smile.
"Those are from me," Lee announced proud.
"Lee!"
"Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!"
They embraced and everyone groaned.
Kakashi's eyes lit up when he opened his gift. He picked up the book gingerly. "This book hasn't even come out yet!" he exclaimed.
"You're welcome," Jiraiya said, "It's autographed too."
Kakashi hugged his new Icha Icha Paradise volume nine.
"I'll go next!" Naruto stated ripping the wrapping of his present. He had gotten a ramen certificate to Ichiraku and handmade earmuffs that were orange. He put them on his ears joyfully.
"That has Hinata's name written all over it," Ino stated smiling at her friend who blushed.
"Arigato, Hinata-chan," he proclaimed hugging Hinata tightly. She blushed even deeper.
"You're welcome N-Naruto-kun," she muttered. She looked at her small package she opened it slowly. It was a velvet box; she popped the lid and gasped. "Oh my…" words couldn't describe the beautiful multi-colored butterfly pin.
"Aaaww so cute!" the girls cooed.
Hinata looked around the room. "T-this isn't for m-me?" she questioned.
Naruto grinned. "Sure it is Hinata-chan! I picked it out by myself! Do you like it?" he boasted.
"Like it? L-like it? I love it N-Naruto-kun!" she said smiling at him. She hugged him. "T-thank you so m-much!"
The girls applauded.
Gasha smiled at Gaara. "That's so cute."
Gaara nodded.
"Here, Gaara-kun," Gasha said, handing him a teddy bear that was holding a heart that said 'I love you' on it.
Another 'aw' from the girls.
Gaara took it with a smile. He handed her a box.
Gasha gasped loudly when she opened it. She choked back tears. "I can't accept this," she said looking at Gaara.
Gaara slipped off the couch and took her hand, going down on one knee. He was blushing! The Kazekage was blushing! "Gasha-chan, will you do me the honor of being my wife?" Gaara asked timidly.
Everyone's jaw dropped.
Then Naruto whistled and stomped his feet.
"Say yes," echoed the girls.
Gasha sniffled. "Of course I will," she stated, Gaara slipping the ring on her left hand.
Neji twitched. "I can't believe he just did that," he said.
"I hear you on that one," Sasuke stated.
"That is so romantic!" cooed Sakura and Ino.
"Congratulations, Gaara-san and Gasha-san," Hinata smiled.
"Thanks guys. I have the sweetest boyf…fiancée ever!" Gasha squealed, squeezing Gaara.
TenTen then opened her present and smirked. "Oh yeah," she exclaimed looking at the Tontos swords. "This is exactly what I wanted!"
"Glad you like it," Neji said smirking.
"Thanks Neji," TenTen stated about to give him a hug then backed away, "I know how you feel about hugs so…" she gave him a tender kiss instead.
Neji's eye widened.
"My youths are all grown up," Gai sniffled.
"You go girl!" Ino shouted.
Naruto pointed at Neji and snickered.
Neji glared at him and opened his own present. He took out a box with a picture of a telephone on it? "Is this some kind of cruel joke?" Neji questioned.
"No, you need a phone. Oh my number's on speed dial," TenTen responded.
"Nani?" Neji blinked. "Whatever, I guess it could be worse."
TenTen smiled.
Ino anxiously ripped open her gift. "Huh?" she asked picking up a cookbook.
"Your cooking's terrible," Shikamaru commented.
"Shikamaru!" Ino was about to hit him when he said, "There's something else in there."
Ino looked into the bag and picked up a charm bracelet. She smiled. "Much better," she said giving Shikamaru a kiss on the cheek, causing the Nara to blush.
"How troublesome," Shikamaru mumbled opening his mystery present. It was a green sweater.
"Isn't it cool? I knit it myself," Ino stated proudly.
"Uh…"
"Try it on," Ino urged.
Shikamaru gulped and put the sweater in over his usual attire. He itched his neck. "Thanks, I think."
Ino grinned sheepishly. "You're very welcome," she stated.
Sasuke opened his box and picked up two kunais. "They have my name on them?" he questioned.
"Thought it would be kinda cool. It's lame, I know. Gomen," Sakura responded.
"It's not lame. Thanks," Sasuke half-smiled.
Sakura blushed and opened her jewelry boxed present. Lee leaned in his chair to get a closer look.
Sakura clasped her hands over her mouth, holding back tears. She tenderly picked up the golden heart locket. "It's beautiful," she turned it over and she gawked.
"What is it, big-forehead?" Ino questioned.
"It…it has the…Uchiha symbol on the back," she replied and Lee fell over in his chair.
"Wow," Naruto said.
They all looked at the Uchiha prodigy, who was still leaning against the wall.
"It was my mother's. I have no use for it," Sasuke stated.
"Thank you, Sasuke-kun," Sakura whispered.
"Let me put it on for you," Sasuke suggested getting off the wall and walked over to the pink-haired teenager.
Naruto watched in wonder, eyes wide, as Sasuke walked to Sakura.
Sasuke put the necklace on as Sakura lifted her hair. Sakura let her hair loose. She took the opportunity to hug Sasuke by surprise. "I love it!"
Naruto threw a kunai at the unexpecting Uchiha. Sasuke dodged it and looked at the blonde with an upraised eyebrow. "What the hell was that for dobe?" he asked.
"You're not Sasuke, Sasuke would never give Sakura-chan such a pretty necklace," Naruto stated.
"Naruto stop being a baka!" Sakura snapped. "It's Christmas, it's the season to be jolly."
Naruto looked at then Sasuke. "What's the code?" Naruto asked.
"Nani?" Sasuke questioned looking at his former teammate.
"What's the code?" Naruto repeated.
"You've got to be kidding me," Sasuke mumbled.
"What's the code? The real Sasuke would know it!" Naruto bellowed.
"You can't be serious Naruto!" barked Sakura.
Ino looked at Sakura then Naruto. "What are you guys talking about? What code?" she asked.
Sakura looked at her. "We made it up during the Chuunin exam, the second test, so we would know if one was a fake or not," she stated.
Ino nodded and replied, "oh."
"If you're really Sasuke, what is it?" Naruto asked pulling out another kunai.
Sasuke took a deep breath and glared at Naruto. "Sneak into the enemy's place when disturbance occurs. Do not sneak into a quiet place. The most important thing is to seize the timing when the enemy is tired and has become slack. There," Sasuke stated.
"Is that right, Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked looking at Sakura.
Everyone fell back. "You didn't even know!" Ino barked.
"Yes, Naruto, it's right. Every word," Sakura assured, clenching her teeth.
Naruto glanced at Sasuke. "But how do we know this imposter wasn't listening when he said the code?" he questioned.
Sakura bopped Naruto on the head. "Baka!" she shouted.
"This is nonsense," Neji said, getting off the couch. "I'm going home."
"I'll go with you, I mean I'll walk with you, my house is on the way," TenTen stated, getting up herself.
"I'll go too," Lee said.
Neji and TenTen looked at him. "No," they said leaving.
"Uh," Lee was speechless.
Shikamaru stifled a yawn. He got up from the couch. "I'm going to head home, you coming with, Ino?" he asked looking at his blonde friend.
Ino nodded and also got up. "Thanks for letting us come," she told Sasuke and grabbed Shikamaru's hand. Shikamaru blushed. Ino waved and they both left all smiles.
"Will you walk home with me, Gai-sensei?" Lee asked with hopeful eyes.
"Of course, Lee," Gai said and they both left.
Tsunade, Jiraiya, Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurenai went to have a party at Anko's. Then Kiba, Shino, and Chouji left. Gaara got up.
"We're going," he announced, Gasha hooking his arms with hers.
"Merry Christmas," Gasha said waving.
It was down to four. Naruto started to whistle.
"You leaving yet, dobe?" Sasuke questioned.
Naruto pouted. "Be that way," he looked at Hinata trying to put her pin on. "Let me help you, Hinata-chan." Hinata blushed as Naruto put the pin on her jacket. Naruto grinned. "It looks good on you," he stated.
"T-Thank you, Naruto-kun," Hinata said.
"Want me to walk you home?" Naruto asked and Hinata eagerly nodded her head. Naruto put his arm around her shoulder and Hinata felt herself melt.
"Super kawaii," Sakura stated looking at the couple with a grin on her face.
"Hn."
"Well, I'm off. Bye, Sasuke-kun. Merry Christmas," Sakura stated waving. He heard the door close behind her. "Merry Christmas, Sakura," he said to his empty house.
That's the end of this one!
