Vacation in Paradise

Chapter Two

The Discussion

"Well?" asked Tsunade, from behind her desk. She looked at the four sensei's in front of her. Kakashi, Kurenai, Asuma, and Gai all stood facing her in a half circle. "How are your teams doing?"

"Naruto is as hyper and clueless as always," started Kakashi. "Sasuke is, well Sasuke, although he has been stealing glances at Sakura a lot these days. Hmm, wonder why. Oh and Sakura, well she keeps trying to kill me, for being late."

"No wonder, you're always late, Kakashi," Kurenai sighed. "Always."

"Not always," Kakashi defended.

"Well then, name one time you weren't late," Kurenai challenged, arms crossed.

"I was, uh …well, I, that one time, wait no, uh," Kakashi's voice trailed off as he tried to think of one time he wasn't late, which was difficult since he was always late, always.

"You are always late, Kakashi," Kurenai said, with a smug expression on her face, "It's a fact of life."

"Hey!" Kakashi said, with an offended look on his face.

"Well, it is," Kurenai said.

"Okay, okay, that's enough," interrupted Tsunade, before Kakashi and Kurenai started another yelling contest. "Kurenai, tell me about your team."

"Let's see," Kurenai started, ignoring Kakashi and his annoyed expression. "Hinata is getting stronger and she blushes every time she sees Naruto. I think she really likes that Uzumaki boy. Kiba and Shino train and also continue to get stronger. That's all really."

"Okay, how about you Asuma?" asked Tsunade after Kurenai finished.

"Well, let's see here," Asuma pulled out a cigar, and lit it. "Chouji eats his chips, Shikamaru is as lazy as ever, but Ino, well…Ino seems to still be infatuated with the Uchiha, but she spends a lot more time with Shikamaru lately."

"Huh, that's interesting," Tsunade looked thoughtful. "How about you Gai? How is your team doing?"

"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLL, TSUNADE," Gai began in a loud voice. "MY TEAM IS DOING GREAT!"

"Gai, lower your voice," Tsunade covered her ears. "I'm starting to think you really are on crack or something."

"NO, I'M NOT ON CRACK, WELL, NOT EXACTLY," Gai looked slightly paranoid. "ANYWAYSSSSS, LEE IS STILL THE BEST STUDENT I HAVE EVERY HAD!"

"I wonder why," Kakashi whispered sarcastically to Asuma. Asuma nodded, and continued to smoke.

"THE FIRE OF YOUTH BURNS BRIGHTLY IN HIM, I SEE SO MUCH OF MYSELF IN HIM," Gai sniffed as tears started to leak out of his fuzzy browed eyes. He continued to ramble on about Lee and youth.

"Okay, Gai please, I don't need a biography of your student," Tsunade stated, annoyed. "What about your other students?"

"WHO? NEJI AND TENTEN? WELL, THEY'RE GOOD, BUT NOT AS GOOD AS LEE, OF COURSE," Gai started to ramble about Lee again.

"NO!" Tsunade screamed, extremely annoyed now. "I didn't mean how they were compared to Lee, I meant how are they?"

"THEY ARE FINE, THOUGH NEJI ALWAYS SEEMS TO TRAIN WITH TENTEN, I EVEN SAW HIM SMILE AT HER ONCE, IT WAS SCARY. TENTEN ALSO TRAINS WITH NEJI A LOT AND SHE BLUSHED WHEN HE SMILED, THAT WAS EVEN SCARIER, TENTEN DOESN'T BLUSH!" Gai said in one breath. He sucked in another breath and started to talk about his prized student again. The other four looked at him strangely. Kakashi and Kurenai both took a step away from him. Tsunade shook her head and placed her hands to her face. Asuma regarded him with a I-don't-believe-that-you're-not-on-crack look.

"LEE IS JUST SO GREAT! HE IS…" Gai rambled on, not noticing the others.

"Okayyyyy…soooo," Tsunade addressed the other three sensei's. "Your reports have confirmed my thoughts. Your students have all been training hard, right?" The three nodded. "Well, since your teams have been working so hard, we don't have many missions, and love seems to be in the air…" She paused for dramatic effect.

"Yesss?" asked Kakashi and Asuma prompted.

"I decided to give your students a month's vacation!" she replied.

"YAY! wait, what about us?" asked all three sensei's at the same time.

"What about you?" asked Tsunade, pretending to be clueless.

"Don't we get a vacation too?" asked Asuma and Kakashi.

"Shouldn't we get a vacation too?" asked Kurenai at the same time.

"I suppose…" Tsunade tapped her cheek, pretending to think about it. The sensei's leaned forward, eagerly. "Well…." Tsunade loved to mess with the sensei's. "Maybe…"

"Pwetty pwease?" The three asked, with puppy eyes.

"Hmmm…." Tsunade looked at her fingernails. "Okay."

"Yes!" all three said together, throwing their fists up in victory.

"Tell your teams to meet me here tomorrow at 9," she ordered. "And get Gai out of my office." Gai was still rambling on about Lee.

"Hey Gai, Lee's looking for you!" Kurenai said.

"WHAT? WHERE?" Gai looked around wildly, before heading for the door

"Don't forget to tell your team to meet me here at 9 tomorrow!" shouted Tsunade as he ran into the door, made a human sized hole, crashed into the hallway wall, turned down the hall, jumped out the window, and dashed down the road and out of sight. She sighed. " Now I have to replace the door, again. You guys are dismissed." Kakashi, Kurenai, and Asuma left.

Tenten woke with a start. She yawned and looked over at her clock, 5:10. Damn, I'm late for training. Neji's gonna kill me! She jumped out of bed and quickly pulled on her shirt and pants. She placed her kunai, shuriken, scrolls, and various other weaponry on her body. She rushed out of her room, into the bathroom, fixed herself up, into the kitchen, ate a light breakfast, pulled on her sandals and headband, and rushed out the door. Little did she know, Neji was standing outside, about to knock on her door. She crashed into him and they both tumbled to the ground.

"N-Neji?" Tenten stuttered. "What are you doing here?"

"Get off me," he panted, struggling to get up. Tenten was on top of him and he was on his side. Their faces were extremely close to each others. Unknown to them, Hinata happened to be passing by. Hinata saw the position her cousin and his teammate were in, she gasped and ran, thinking about what she had just saw. Neji, and, and Tenten? she wondered.

"Sorry," Tenten looked sheepish as she stood up and dusted herself off. Neji jumped up and brushed some dirt off his clothes, a light blush on his face. "What were you doing at my door?"

"You were late," he replied, his face emotionless. And I was worried, he thought.

"Oh yeah, sorry about that," Tenten looked down, scared. I'm dead, I just haven't bothered to lie down yet, oh no, oh, no!

"Let's go train," Neji said. Why am I blushing? He thought. Tenten followed silently. Why hasn't he killed me yet? And why was he blushing? They walked off in silence toward their training grounds to spar. I wonder if he likes me?

Ah well, that's the second chapter. Hope you enjoyed it. Much thanks to naash, edakumi-sama, ryuu no me, Marysmary, Saskra, and Flare Pyro for reviewing. I really appreciate it. And in case you didn't know, the beginning (in italics) was a flashback to the day before. And the rookie nine are 14, Gai's team is 15. I just realized, I used italics a lot this time...hmm... Anyways, please review! Thanks to all my readers and reviewers. -pheonixphire
