AN: This is the second to last chapter, but I'm thinking of rearranging Dorm Life: Second Story for a few weeks after instead, during summer vacation.

I wonder how 'Pretty Woman' made me want to update this chappie…Oh well.

.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.

'Finally, finally, FINALLY!' Sasuke thought as he went outside for the first time after the field trip, because after that field trip, they had, yes, term papers and a WHOOLE bunch of other nonsense. Like tests.

'Everybody seems more alert now' Hinata thought. Indeed everybody had now heard of the almost-rape (Which is actually what a ranted about, rape) and had kept a close eye for Hinata's safety. (I'm actually doing this on my bro's comp, it has the English version of Microsoft Word) But the jumpiest, not to mention most alert, was Sasuke.

It was the coming end of July, after the 23, Sasuke's birthday (Which, mind you, was weird.)(DAMMIT! SASUKE'S IS NOT SAUCE'S!) Here's a rundown on his day-

-RUNDOWN-

Sasuke comes in, the lights turned off

Everybody jumps up and yells surprise

They give Sasuke his 'Sasu-cake' (I love that pun)

Eat cake.

Open presents.

Finis

-END RUNDOWN-

All in all, a short birthday party, let's see it in action then?

-ACTION-

Sasuke comes into the room, having a strange sense of danger.

'Crap, the lights are off. Is Hinata-chan sleeping?' He looked at the lumpy futons. 'Nuuuu' He thought.

Click.

"SHURPRISHE!" yelled everyone.

"WHAT THE FECK?" Sasuke yelled, the crap scared out of him (Not literally, that would be embarrassing.)

"It's your birfday, remember?" Lilac said.

"Birf-day?" Sasuke repeated.

"Yes, your birthday." Hinata said.

"Here's your cake!" Ino and Sakura both said simultaneously. Then the angry vein appeared.

"It's called Sasu-cake" Lilac said.

"Yeh, teme." Naruto called.

"Ugh, just blow them out so we can get a move on?" Shikamaru said.

Sasuke blew out the candles of his 'sasu-cake'. Then they were all served, except for Lilac, who was never hungry and got hyper easily. She was content with drinking soda. (Wait a second 0.o)

Soon they had a bouncy Lilac, and a bunch of cake eating shinobi.

Soon the attention was turned to a bunch of presents, which Sasuke noticed most of them were from his fangirls and Sakura and Ino.

"Ugh…" He said as he started to open one of his mountain of presents.

About two hours later, they finally finished with the last of Sakura's present. Sasuke liked Hinata's best, a bunch of large shuriken with elaborate markings carved on it.

"It's a new one that I got from Neji-nii-san..." She had said.

The party was slightly boring, but Lilac and Naruto's hyperness made it all better. (WHAT THE HELL ARE MAPUTO AND HYPERONS?)

-End PARTY-

He looked at the large black shuriken that he kept in the mini-desk's drawer. The black metal shined like silver and felt like a smooth surface that had just been sanded. It almost seemed too delicate to even touch.

Too bad he would have to use it sooner or later.

"Sasuke, I'm back with the dango!" Hinata came in.

He took one and stuffed it in his mouth. Then he tried to chew, as the dangos were huge.

"Um…"Hinata coughed. "Y-you were supposed to bite them…"

"…"Sasuke stared blankly at the pile of dango that Hinata had brought.

"Yeah…I feel full right now…"Sasuke passed.

"Oh, I'll see if Lila-chan wants one. She's been off her bad mood streak now for several days." Hinata said.

"M-hm…"Sasuke gurgled through a glass of water.

"…I also heard that Lila-chan's little brother is coming next year."

"PHGBBTT…" Sasuke spit out his water. How embarrassing. "WHAT!"

"Uh…His name is Jace (Shortened version, don't wanna disclose names) I believe" she said quietly.

"Uugh…I think I'm going to be sick…" Sasuke collapsed on his bed.

Hinata smiled and giggled. Then she coughed again.

"Hinata-chan, are you sick?" Sasuke asked.

"Uh…Now, don't worry about me, I'm fine!" Hinata exclaimed.

Sasuke raised an eyebrow.

Hinata sighed. "Okay, maybe I got sick from the Knott's Berry Farm field trip…" Hinata backed off.

"Hah."

-A few weeks later-

"Haha that would totally suck if that were us…" Sasuke said as he read a story called Naruto's Version of Who's Line is it Anyway.

"Ahem…" Lilac coughed innocently as she sipped her tea. (Mai other story.)

"But the real weird thing is Lila-san's in it as well…" Sasuke cast a suspicious eye toward Lilac.

Lilac whistled politely. Then she went back to reading her book.

"Hm" Sasuke went back to reading the story.

Sasuke had not become very pleased with how routine his life had become. First, it was get up and get ready for the arduous day ahead. Go to class, sleep through some… Then it was homework and studying. Dinner, then get annoyed by the (still flirting) Sakura.

All in all, he needed a time off. So that was what Summer Vacation gave him.

And he was glad for that.

Of course Naruto had set him up. Here is a rundown on the (forced) date between Hinata and Sasuke.

-Rundown, foos!-

Sasuke whistled while walking back to class. Naruto confronted him in the hall.

"Oi! Teme! Sakura-chan, Ino-san, and Lila-san decided to set you up on a date with Hinata-chan."

"What the HELL are you talking about, Naruto!" Sasuke yelled.

"Well, they said they noticed that you liked her. You do, don't you?" Naruto said (and asked).

"…Baka." He continued walking down the hall.

"By the way, you don't want to go in there."

"Why?"

"Because, they're probably talking about girly stuff." Naruto said teasingly.

"Eh. So when is the damn thing?"

-In the room of 206-(Yes, and you were probably wondering WHEN too!)

"So, Hinata-chan, do you like Sasuke-kun?" Ino asked Hinata.

"Wh-what?" Hinata paused from brushing Sakura's (now short) hair.

"You like him, don't you?" Sakura said.

"N-n" Hinata was cut off.

"It's official." Lilac, Sakura, and Ino all looked at each other.

"DENIAL." They said plainly.

"By the way, Sasuke asked you on a date on Saturday." Lilac said plainly.

'Sasuke…A d…date? What world am I in?' Hinata thought.

-Exit to the hall-

"So it's on Saturday, 6?" Sasuke asked. Naruto nodded.

"That's what they said. Plus, they're going to be looming around you guys during it."

"Why?"

"…I think for gossip."

"Hn."

-Room-

"S-Saturday? 6? O-okay, I'll be there…" Hinata said timidly.

-Let's skip the date, don't know what happens on one anyway (Too underage.)- (Sorry! Gomen nasai! Meh! SORRY!)

Soon, Sasuke and Hinata could be seen walking around holding hands (Strangely.)

Lilac, Ino, and Sakura had done their job.

.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.

Last chapter coming up, almost complete. Sorry for the long wait...Laziness and debate stuff. And beach.
