"Uchiha, stay away from her." Neji said to Sasuke.

"Well, better than you"

End Recap

Unknown to Sasuke and Neji, Shihana heard the whole thing.

'I never thought it could end up like this… 2 boys fighting just because of me. I'm not that special… am I?'

Shihana didn't wanna eavesdrop and longer, so she walked to her room. Once Shihana got into her room, she plopped onto the bed and fell asleep.

After Neji's and Sasuke little argument, Neji finally went inside to the Hyuuga Compound. But before going into his room he went to Shihana's room to check on her, when he got there Shihana was lying in bed sleeping, not bothering to pull a blanket over her. Neji sighed and carefully pulled one over her. Before Neji left, Neji slightly kissed her forehead and smiled. When Neji had kissed Shihana, she smiled a bit. Neji whispered goodnight before heading out to his room to get a good night's rest…

-The Day of the Sakura Festival…

'Yay! The Festival is today!' Shihana thought, as she skipped down the streets, drawing attention from passerbies, occasionally some people laughed. But she couldn't help it, she was extra hyper today.

Shihana stopped skipping when she saw Neji; he looked down in the dumps. Shihana ran straight to him, and jumped on his back.

"Neji-saaan! Why so gloomy all of a sudden? Be happy! Today's the festival!" Shihana said and smiled at Neji.

'I wish I could be happy today… but Shihana is going with Sasuke…' Neji thought.

Neji was about to say something until Sasuke came, out of nowhere… constantly calling Shihana's name.

"Hey Shihana, Hyuuga." Sasuke said the last part darkly, and glared at Hyuuga—er—Neji.

"Uchiha" Neji replied.

"Hisaki!" Shihana said bubbly.

Neji and Sasuke looked at Shihana funny.

"What? Both of you get to say each other's last name… why not me?" Shihana smiled.

"So… Shihana… you're still going with me to the festival tonight right? Sasuke asked.

Shihana nodded slightly.

'It kinda hurts that I'm going with Sasuke-san… but for some odd reason I forgot why I'm going with him in the first place… oh well it doesn't matter now.'

"That's cool; I'll pick you up later then." Sasuke said before walking off.

"I still don't know why you agreed to go with that jerk" Neji said huffing.

"Well… for some reason, me either… and don't call him a jerk, you act a lot like him, and he's nice too."

"Whatever you say… say… did you buy your kimono yet?"

"Yup! 2 days ago!"

"Let me take a look at it."

"That's a big no, no" Shihana said as she put her pointer finger on the tip of Neji's nose. "You'll see it tonight at the festival."

"Hn" Neji pouted a bit.

"Well then, I must be off to see Hinata-chan." Shihana said before running off the other direction to go find Hinata.

When she got there Hinata was with Shino, Kiba, and Akamaru.

"Hinata!" Shihana called out running towards the three.

"Hey Shihana-chan" Hinata smiled.

"Why doesn't she stutter when she talks to Shihana, but stutters with everyone else?" Kiba whispered over to Shino.

"I-I knew Shihana s-since w-we were l-little k-kids." Hinata said.

"Hinata-chan did you buy your kimono for the festival?" Shihana asked.

Hinata just nodded and smiled.

"Come on let's get ready for tonight." Shihana said and smiled.

"Okay, Rei-san said she'll meet us up at the festival tonight…" Hinata said.

Shihana nodded and waved to Kiba and Shino.

"Bye Kiba-san! Bye Shino-kun!" Shihana said and, her and Hinata race off to change.

'Damn, she's hot.' Kiba thought.

"Kiba? A-Are you drooling?" Shino asked a bit shocked.

"W-What? N-NO!" Kiba said and wiped off any drool near his mouth.

"Mmm-hmm….." Shino said and raised his eyebrow.
