Thank you guys for your help with finding the story and all your reviews. I'm pretty sure that the story was deleted but thank you for taking the time to help. Now I will be doing another poll so you guys may pick the top three guys for Sakura on my profile soon. I will then pick whom Sakura will end up with. One of my friends has been following the story but no matter how much I beg her won't make an FanFiction account wants Sakura to end up with Sasuke. I'm not really sure myself who to pick myself, maybe a bit of virtual cheesecake would help me decide. (I love cheesecake! I'm pretty sure you guys already figured that out!)
Chapter 15: A Night with the Girls
"Good morning Dad," Sakura chimed walking down the steps.
"Good morning sweetie," her dad smiled lying Sakura's breakfast on the table. "I went to the store and loaded up on all your favorite snacks for your sleepover."
"Dad," Sakura whined.
"What?" her dad frowned. "I can't be happy that my daughter's about to have her first sleepover and there are actual girls coming to our house?"
"Girls have come to our house before."
"That was once in first grade and you scared her away when you ripped off her doll's head."
"She wanted to play house," Sakura shook her head. "No way was I going to do that."
"Yeah that was when you were going to your monster truck phase."
"Oh that is right," Sakura remembered. She looked at the clock above her dad's head. "If I don't get going, I'm going to be late."
"Alright tell your friends if they don't have a sleeping bag, they can borrow one of the one's I just brought."
"Dad," Sakura groaned.
"Have a good day, see you later," her dad called from the front door. "My little girl is growing up."
Sakura walked up the school steps and reached for the door but someone beat her to it.
Deidara opened it wide. "Ladies first."
"Thank you," Sakura blushed as she thought about the kiss they shared just three days ago and he was still smiling like a fool.
"It is my pleasure. Do you want to go off for lunch again?"
"Umm…not this time," Sakura whispered not looking him in the eye. "But thank you for asking."
"Yeah," Deidara grinned even though he had been turned down.
Sakura rushed to her locker and gathered her books. She closed her locker door to a very happy Naruto.
"What is it?"
"They added…" Naruto gasped.
"Deep breaths," Kiba instructed him.
"Ramen to the breakfast menu," Naruto finished.
"Eww," Sakura said.
"Sakura," Naruto said shocked. "This is the best day ever."
"Who wants to eat ramen at seven in the morning?"
"How many times do I have to have this conversation with you people? Everyone loves ramen."
"What do you mean you people? It's just Sakura and me," Kiba pointed out.
"Gaara's here," Naruto nodded to the red head approaching them.
"You won't believe this but I have not seen Ino all morning," Gaara said. "Not one squeal or an attack."
"Isn't that a good thing?" Sakura said.
"Yes it's just very odd."
Sakura smirked. "You like her don't you."
"No I like someone else," Gaara scowled but then realized what he said.
"OMG you like someone!" Sakura's eyes widened.
"Well…I guess," Gaara muttered. "Did you just say OMG?"
"Who is she?" Sakura asked. "Tell me."
"Is she pretty?" Kiba asked.
"Does she have a nice body?" Naruto questioned.
"Is she smart?" Shikamaru asked coming out of nowhere.
"Yes, yes and yes," Gaara answered their questions.
Sakura pushed Gaara. "You were staring at her body."
"What?"
"Naruto asked if she has a nice body and you said yes, you have been totally ogling her."
"No I haven't, I just happened to notice. I don't have fantasies about her like Naruto used to have about you."
"She wasn't supposed to know that," Naruto whined glaring at Gaara. Naruto smiled at Sakura. "Don't worry it doesn't happen anymore."
"Fine what's her name?"
"I can't tell you that?" Gaara blushed lightly.
"If I don't know who she is, how am I going to get you together?"
"What?"
"Sakura's already working on finding a girlfriend for me," Naruto added in.
"Sakura what do you know about relationships or dating in general?" Gaara demanded to know.
"Nothing but it can't be that hard," Sakura rolled her eyes.
"You're not going to tell her I like her because I don't want her to know."
"Why not?"
Gaara scratched the back of his head. "I don't think she likes me the way I like her."
"Why wouldn't she, you have a tattoo on your forehead, don't those girls like that bad boy appeal?" Sakura said.
"She's different," Gaara smiled as he gazed at Sakura slap Naruto's hand away as he tried to go into her purse. "I think it would take more than that to impress her."
"What I miss?" Shino asked finally showing up.
"The gang is all here," Naruto sang.
"Please don't start singing some song," Sakura wailed.
"When there's trouble you know who to call, Naruto's Force, from our tower we can see it all, Naruto's Force, whe-"
"Naruto's Force?"
"Yes we are superheroes and I'm the leader.
"We're all doomed."
"Why are you the leader?"
"Because…I'm a macho macho man, I want be a macho man, macho, macho man, I want-"
"Let's just go," Sakura said not wanting to even get into the argument and for Naruto to stop singing.
"So Sakura what are we doing this weekend?" Naruto asked as they walked to homeroom.
Sakura grinned. "Sorry guys but I have plans."
"Your going on a date," Kiba gasped.
"No way," Sakura frowned. "I'm having a sleepover."
"A coed sleepover," Naruto wiggled his eyebrows.
"No Temari, Hinata and me," Sakura smiled.
"Can we come?"
"Out of the question." Sakura handed her books to Gaara. "Hold these; I have to go to the restroom."
Sakura walked off to the nearest one and opened the door.
Naruto cried. "We always do everything together."
"We could sneak in," Kiba suggested. "I could disguise myself as a pizza man."
Gaara rubbed his chin. "You know that's not a bad idea."
"I could be the stripper that someone ordered for them," Naruto said humping the air.
"We want them to be able to see the next day," Shino joked.
"Whatever."
"You know you sure talk about strippers a lot must be your future career," Gaara smirked.
"No," Naruto said hotly. "I'm going to be president."
Gaara, Shino, Kiba and Shikamaru laughed. "Hey it could happen," Naruto whined following them into class.
Tobi put down the newspaper he was hiding behind and smirked. "A sleepover, very interesting."
"What a slacker," Naruto frowned. "Kakashi wasn't here for homeroom and now he's late for geometry."
"You shouldn't be so surprised," Sakura replied writing on a booklet.
"What are you doing?" Kiba asked.
"Biology homework," Sakura answered.
"We had homework?" Kiba gasped
"Yeah this whole packet," Sakura picked it up and waved it in front of his face."
Kiba picked up his book bag and started digging through it looking for his papers.
"Ino isn't here," Gaara said hesitantly looking around the room.
"You know for someone who sure doesn't like her you sure are taking a lot of notice that she's not here."
"You just don't know what a huge relief this is," Gaara said. "Do you know what it is like to be constantly followed?"
Sakura glanced over at Neji next to her.
"Hey baby," he smirked.
"I think I understand pretty well."
"So Sakura when are you going to give me those digits?" Neji asked.
The door opened and in walked a late Ino.
"Umm…is Ino wearing pants?" Sakura said slowly in disbelieve.
"Yes and they aren't skin tight."
Ino walked over to Gaara's desk and stood in front of it.
"Gaara we're over," Ino said.
"Excuse me?" Gaara said confused.
"Look," Ino said shifting her weight to her other leg. "You just weren't giving me what I want and you never noticed any of the clothes I brought no matter how short, see-through, or sparkly they were."
"I noticed," a boy in the back commented.
"I then thought about it and I don't need to dress a certain way to feel beautiful about myself. I then decided that I want you to respect me but then I came to the conclusion that I don't want you anymore."
"We were never going-"
Ino put a finger over his lips. "Don't make this harder that it was to be Gar-Gar. I will always love you but I think it's time we went our separate ways."
Kakashi finally showed up to class. Ino removed her finger from Gaara's lips and took her seat. She pulled out her notebook and looked ready to work.
Sakura tried very hard not to laugh. "I think you just got dumped."
"That was really weird."
"Now you don't have to worry about her following you around and stuff."
"Yes," Gaara smirked. "The torture is over."
Sakura's day had actually been good. No weird attacks from anyone. She was looking forward to her weekend sleepover. She walked into her World History AP class. Itachi and Tobi were huddled at their desk over a piece of paper talking in hushed voices. She sat at her desk at stared at them. Either of them had greeted her or flirted.
"What are you guys doing?" Sakura asked trying to see the paper.
The two looked up surprised at her. "When did you get here?"
"I've been sitting here for about a minute. What are you looking at?"
"Nothing," Tobi said quickly moved the paper off the table.
Sakura glared at him suspiciously.
Itachi smirked her way. "Nothing to worry your pretty head about."
Sasori walked in and sat down.
"Do you know what they are doing?"
"I don't have a clue but I'm probably going to be involved somehow. They have been strangely quiet today."
Asuma-sensei put the assignment on the board and everyone got to work. Tobi and Itachi continued to look over their paper.
"Are you sure this is Sakura's window?" Itachi whispered to Tobi looking at the floor plan of Sakura's house."
"Yes I went into every room."
Itachi looked at him weirdly.
"What? When she was sick we had access to her house so I did some peeking around."
"Anyway I think this is the bathroom righ-"
Itachi looked at Sakura straining her neck to look at the paper.
"No peeking," Tobi shunned her.
"It must be something really interesting if you're being so quiet," Sakura said watching Itachi fold the paper and sticking it into this back pocket.
"Oh it is," Itachi smiled winking at her.
"Why are you putting it in there?" Tobi questioned.
"She wouldn't dare go there, I can tell by the look in her eyes she was planning to steal it."
Sakura blushed her plan being found out and leaned over her book to continue to her work.
"This is going to be one exciting Friday night," Itachi smirked.
"Sakura the doorbell just ringed," he dad called from the kitchen.
Sakura ran down the steps and opened the door. "Temari," Sakura smiled. "Come on in."
Temari walked inside the house and dropped her things on the floor. "You know I've never been in your house before."
"Well this is it," Sakura said opening her arms to the living room.
Sakura heard a door close outside. She looked through the blinds to see a limo parked outside and her nosey neighbors pretending to get their mail looking in awe. "Hinata's here."
Sakura walked outside followed by Temari. A man in a black suit helped Hinata unload her things.
"Hi S-sak-ura and Tem-ma-r-ri," Hinata stuttered greeting them.
"Hello Sakura," she heard Neji's deep voice say. He hopped out of the limo balancing on his crutches.
"What are you doing here?" Sakura snarled.
"I just came to see my cousin off," Neji announced.
"Sure you did," Temari smirked.
"Only one more week till I'm off these things," Neji informed to them pointing to the crutches.
"Good for you," Sakura smiled weakly. "Now if you don't mind we have a busy schedule."
"We'll have a busy schedule too next week," Neji winked at her before hopping back into the limo.
Temari laughed. "He wants you bad."
"He can want but he can't have."
The girls gathered up all the bags and headed back into the house. Mr. Haruno was standing waiting at the door.
"Hello girls, I'm Mr. Haruno," he smiled happily. "Nice to meet you."
"I'm Temari," she said.
"Your Gaara's older sister, right?"
"Yes sir."
"I-I'm H-hinata," she said quietly.
"Nice to meet you Hinata."
Sakura dad handed over a tray assortment full of meats, fruits and cheeses.
"Dad," Sakura whined looking at the food tray.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't resist."
"Thank you Mr. Haruno," Temari beamed popping a block of cheese into her mouth.
"My room is upstairs," Sakura said heading to the steps.
"Okay you girls have fun," her dad instructed before heading back into the kitchen.
"Yes dad," Sakura said mortified.
Sakura opened the door to her room and put the tray on her desk.
"I thought it was sweet," Temari teased.
"Yeah it's just he's taking this overboard since this is my first sleepover."
"Well I guess me and Hinata will have to show you how it's done," Temari smirked. "Right Hinata?"
"S-sure," Hinata blushed.
"Where did you get night vision goggles?" Gaara asked as he watched Kiba and Naruto trying to work them.
"Yard sale," Naruto answered.
"We're not using those," Gaara frowned.
"I agree," Shino said.
"Come on," Kiba whined. "How are we going to see into her window without them?"
"We're not looking into her window," Shikamaru said boredly.
"You guys are no fun," Naruto said glumly stuffing the goggles back into his book bag.
On the other side of the Sakura's house Itachi, Tobi and Sasori sat on fold out chairs.
"We look like perverts sitting outside her house," Sasori said bitterly. "Why are we even here?"
"Shhhh," Tobi cried as he talked on his cell phone to Deidara. "No look for the barbeque flavor…you got them?…good…hurry back, I'm hungry."
Tobi snapped the phone shut. "Deidara is on his way back with the snacks."
Itachi glanced at the floor plan again. "Are you sure this is her bathroom?"
"Yes," Tobi said. He pointed up to the window. "Her room is right next to the bathroom. Look, there she is."
"So what are we going to do first?" Sakura asked putting her cell phone on the windowsill.
"We can watch a movie," Temari said laying her sleeping bag on the floor near Sakura's TV.
"What are we going to watch?"
"Chick flick, duh," Temari rolled her eyes.
"No way," Sakura said shaking her head. "We can watch Wolverine, it's really good."
"Isn't that an action movie?"
"Yes."
"Then we aren't watching it," Temari replied.
"Why not?" Sakura asked.
Temari rolled her eyes as if Sakura was missing something important.
"It's a sleepover. At sleepovers, you watch chick flicks. It's like the number one rule."
"…Fine...…What do you want to watch?"
"Hmmm," Temari stood up and walked over to the rack of DVD's Sakura had stacked up next to the T.V.
"Oooh!" Temari gasped. She held up a DVD. "How about we watch Enchanted?"
Sakura moaned. "Not that." Sakura's dad had given it for her as a present last Christmas. It was the only present Sakura didn't like.
"W-w-what's wr-r-ong with it S-Sakura?" Hinata asked.
"Too much singing and too much girly-girly."
"Which is why we are watching it," Temari announced turning on the DVD player and popping the disc in. "And it is not that girly."
"I beg to differ," Sakura sighed lying on her bed.
"Okay I'm back with the snacks," Deidara announced handing Tobi his barbeque chips and pulling out a foldout chair and sitting on it. "Did I miss anything?"
"Nothing really," Itachi answered. "They seem to be watching a movie…but I don't know what it is."
"OMIGOSH!" Tobi suddenly interjected. "It's Enchanted!"
Itachi smacked Tobi on his head. "Keep it down, we don't want Sakura to know we're here," he whispered.
"Sorry," Tobi apologized.
Deidara and Sasori rolled their eyes. "You would know exactly what they were watching, wouldn't you," Sasori accused.
"What are trying to say?" Tobi retorted defensively. "You think I went to the movies to see it 3 times, rented it on DVD twice and put captions on so I could sing-along?"
An awkward silence passed over the group.
"…let's just forget I just said that, okay?"
"Yeah," Deidara agreed, "it's disturbing to think about."
Sasori and Itachi shook their heads in disappointment.
"So what's the plan then?" Naruto asked.
"Easy we sleep, I'm tired," Shikamaru yawned.
"You know if we wanted to sleep, we could have just stayed at our own places."
"My point exactly."
Kiba groaned. "I can't get a good view of Sakura's bedroom from here. I think we should go to the other side of the house."
Naruto perked up. "Sounds good to me."
"Fine," Gaara said rolling his eyes. Shino agreed.
Shikamaru yawned.
"Okay everybody's in, let's go!" Naruto pronounced circling around the back.
"You know it will be kind of hard to see Sakura's bathroom at this angle," Itachi said turning his neck.
"Why do we need to see into her bathroom?" Sasori asked.
"They have to change somewhere," Itachi smirked. "So we can see her in the bathroom."
"We should go around the front, it will look less suspicious," Deidara suggested folding up the lawn chairs.
Itachi, Sasori, Deidara and Tobi grabbed their things and wanted over to the other side of the house. Naruto and the gang came around the back way just as they left; placing their stuff in the very same spot they sat.
"See this is much better," Naruto smiled nodding his head.
"I feel like a peeping tom," Shino whispered.
"It's okay, the feeling will go away soon," Naruto assured him patting him on the shoulder.
Naruto got looks from all of them.
"Okay so I peeked in on that girl down the street a year ago."
"You mean you're a pervert," Gaara said, shaking his head.
"What? I was weak. I didn't have self-control."
"It's obvious."
"She shouldn't have left her window wide open."
"So anyway what are Sakura and them doing?" Shino asked.
"Hmmm, I think they're watching a movie…hold on, I think I got something." Naruto started rummaging through his backpack and got out a pair of binoculars.
"Ta-da!"
Everybody gave Naruto raised eyebrows expressions.
"What?"
"We said we weren't going to use night-vision goggles and you take out binoculars," Gaara muttered.
"Well Shikamaru's on my side," Naruto said defensively. "Right, Shika?"
Shikamaru yawned closing his eyes.
"That's 'Shikamaru' for 'yes'."
"No it isn't, now put the binoculars away."
"Wait," Naruto insisted, holding the binoculars up to his eyes and peering through Sakura's window, "I think I see something."
"What is it?" Kiba gleamed.
"They're watching a movie…OMG, it's Enchanted! How do you know, he loves you, how do you know he cares?" Naruto started singing.
Naruto took the goggles away to see everybody staring at him with freaked-out expressions. Even Shikamaru was staring.
"What?"
"…that's just creepy…" Gaara trailed. The others agreed, nodding.
Sakura sat boredly on her bed watching the movie.
"Can we do something else?"
"Okay, what?" Temari said turning off the TV.
"We could have a burping contest," Sakura suggested.
Temari rolled her eyes. "You spend way to much time with guys. Not that it is a bad thing," Temari smirked raising her eyebrows.
"W-we could do m-m-makeovers," Hinata recommended.
"Yes," Temari said joyfully.
"I don't really have that much makeup. It's not enough for a makeover," Sakura told them. "I'm still sort of a beginner."
Temari pulled her overnight bag off the floor and placed it on Sakura's desk. She pulled out a bag and opened it up. She had pallets of eye shadow, tubes of lip-gloss and everything imaginable.
She pulled out a stick of eyeliner. "Let's get started."
"Wait let me close the window, it's a little cold." Sakura walked over to her bedroom window and pulled it down. She closed the curtains and walked back over to the bed.
"NOOOOOOOO!" Naruto howled. "She closed the window!"
Gaara grabbed Naruto by his neck. "If you don't close that hole in your face, I will do it for you."
Naruto zipped his mouth and threw away an imaginary key.
Kiba released Gaara's grip on Naruto's neck. "I think it's time for the pizza delivery guy idea."
"Let's go."
"This is getting real boring," Deidara sighed. "It's not like were in her house. We can't see anything that is going on."
"Just hold on a few more minutes," Tobi assured him.
The light in the bathroom turned on and they saw Sakura walk in.
"See there she is," Tobi pointed.
She picked up something off the counter and left, turning the light off behind her.
"Wow five seconds," Sasori remarked.
"Hold still," Temari commanded Sakura as she put on the last finishing touches. She picked up the tissue Sakura got from the bathroom to rub a bit of blush off her cheek.
"Are you almost done?" Sakura asked.
"One second," Temari told her. "There."
"Do I look okay?" Sakura asked Hinata.
"You l-look p-pretty."
Sakura walked over to the mirror and stared at herself. Temari had done smokey eye, black eyeliner riming her eyes with purple and brown eye shadow on her lids. She dusted a glittery blush on her cheeks which made them sparkle every time she turned her head. A hot pink lip-gloss on her lips really brought out her hair without being too overbearing. Temari had twisted her hair into a cute side bun on the right side of her head.
"I look…" Sakura started lost for words.
"Hot," Temari smirked walked up behind her. "I am so good."
The doorbell ringed downstairs as Sakura continued to look at herself.
"SAKURA!" her dad called from his office. "CAN YOU GET THAT, I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING!"
Sakura walked down the steps and opened the front door. A pizza guy was standing on the porch.
"Whoa," he said his mouth opened looking at her.
"Hello?" Sakura said confused. "We didn't order any pizza."
"I know," the boy responded he had long brown hair pulled into two ponytails and blond mustache. "Someone already paid for it."
"Who?"
"This totally hot guy named Kiba and these other four boys that were with him."
"Gaara, Shino, Shikamaru and Naruto," Sakura said trying to refresh his memory.
"I believe those were their names."
Sakura took the pizza. "Thanks Kiba," Sakura said closing the door in his face.
"You're welcome," she heard him call from outside.
Kiba walked back to the group hiding in the bushes. "She figured out who I was."
"You don't say," Shika responded sarcastically.
"I could have done a way better job," Naruto added.
"I actually believed you could have," Gaara admitted.
Tobi opened up a two-liter bottle of soda.
"That's a lot of soda, yeah."
"You gonna drink that all by yourself? Can you pass it over here?"
Tobi coughed into the drink.
"Never mind."
"We have pizza," Sakura smiled walking back into her room.
"You b-brought pizza," Hinata said softly.
"No it is from my crazy friends."
Sakura opened up the box and inhaled deeply. "Pepperoni, my favorite."
They each grabbed a slice out of the box and sat on the floor. "So what do we do now?"
Temari smiled wickedly. "It's time for truth or dare."
Hinata gulped down her pizza.
"Sakura you go first."
"Hinata," Sakura turned to face her. "Truth or dare."
"T-truth," Hinata muttered playing with her fingers.
"Is it true that you like Naruto?"
Hinata blushed and broke eye contact with Sakura staring at the carpet. Hinata's mouth moved but the girls couldn't hear what she said.
"What?"
"Y-yes I like N-n-naruto-kun."
"No way," Temari gushed. "You like that loud mouthed-"
Sakura hit Temari on her arm. "That is my friend you're talking about."
"I'm just saying," Temari said defensively.
Sakura grinned at Hinata. "Don't worry Hinata he doesn't know he's too dumb to notice."
"Oh you can talk bad about Naruto but I can't," Temari chuckled.
"Exactly."
Temari pondered on the thought. "You know I think you guys would make a cute couple."
"You t-think so?" Hinata raised her head her cheeks still red.
"Of course."
"Let's keep it moving, Hinata your turn."
"Okay, Temari, t-truth or dare."
"Umm…truth."
"Come on," Sakura moaned. "Pick dare."
"No."
"T-there way a rumor g-going around that y-y-you were k-kissing Sai in the j-janitor's closet. Is it t-true?"
"Eww, that is so totally not true. He is weird looking and he is in the tenth grade," Temari said disgusted.
"At least you didn't have to get CPR from him," Sakura pointed out.
"You were unconscious."
"So it was still horrible."
"Well it's my turn," Temari smirked. "Truth or dare Sakura?"
"Dare," Sakura said with confidence.
"Okay give me a second to think of one."
The doorbell ringed rapidly downstairs. Sakura got up and ran down the stairs quickly. Temari and Hinata followed her. Sakura threw the door open to a dancing Tobi and a smirking Itachi.
"Good evening Sakura," Itachi said deeply. "We're here to drink your blood.
Sakura started blankly at them.
"Okay we just happen to be passing through the neighborhood and Tobi drunk a whole bottle of soda and really has to go to the bathroom."
Tobi was dancing around in circles now his legs twisted together.
"He refuses to use a tree because he is worried of germs."
Sakura stepped aside. "It's the-"
"First door on the second floor," Tobi finished for her dashing up the steps and slamming the bathroom door shut.
Temari's eyes flashed with mischief. "Could you excuse us for a second Itachi?"
"Of course."
Temari closed the front door and turned around to face Sakura. "I came up with your dare."
"What?"
"You have to kiss Itachi."
Sakura laughed loudly. "You're so funny." Sakura stopped when she saw the serious look on Temari's face.
"No."
"It's a dare," Temari scowled.
"Never."
"If you don't kiss Itachi then you have to kiss Neji."
"That's even worse."
"Then just kiss Itachi you asked for a dare, I gave you one."
Sakura crossed her arms and turned her head. "I'm not kissing Itachi."
"Hinata can I see your cell phone?" Temari asked.
"S-sure," Hinata stammered handing it over.
Temari found the number she was searching for and dialed. After a moment she started to talk. "Hi Neji, it's Temari." Temari said.
Sakura grabbed for the phone but Temari ran around the living room table.
"Yes we're still having our sleepover."
Sakura jumped over the table and tried to tackle Temari but she moved out of the way at the last moment Sakura getting a mouth full of couch cushion.
"I just wanted to let you know Sakura wants to totally make out with you right…now," Temari said before snapping the phone shut.
"Temari," Sakura growled.
"Now you can either kiss Itachi or make out with Neji when he gets here."
Sakura weighed her options. She didn't have to kiss either of them. But she had to do it; she chose dare and she had to face the consequences.
Sakura sighed in defeat, opened the front door and stepped into the porch. Itachi rose of the ledge he was sitting on. "Is everything okay? I heard a bit of noise in there."
"Everything's cool."
"Tobi's still not out of the bathroom."
"I don't think so." Sakura said looking deeply into Itachi's dark eyes. It was like looking into an endless lake.
"Just get it over with," Sakura told herself.
"So you have fun at your sleepover, I see you guys have been playing dress up."
Sakura looked down at her blue silk pajama pants and tank top she had changed into. She still had on the make up Temari put on her an hour ago and her hair was still up in the bun.
"We just did some makeovers."
"You look…great," Itachi said choosing the right words not wanting to make her mad.
Sakura was very surprised. He hadn't said anything like she look hot or something pervert like he must usually does.
"Don't act so astonished, I can be-"
Sakura smashed her lips on his for three seconds before stepping away.
Itachi blinked a couple of times. "What do you just do?"
"It was a dare," Sakura croaked trying to gather herself together. "It is a one time thing."
Itachi tasted the lingering strawberry gloss on his lips. He peeked over his shoulder to see Temari and Hinata looking through the blinds their eyes wide open.
"Your friends are watching, I think we should give them a better show."
"What are you talking ab-"
Sakura shrieked as Itachi pulled her close and dipped her, his warm breath tickling her exposed neck. He placed a gentle slow sweet kiss on her lips and let her back up.
Tobi opened the door and came outside. "I'm done," he announced to them.
"Good night Sakura," Itachi bowed to her jumping of the porch and walking down the street.
Sakura felt really hot all of the sudden. She opened the door and stepped back into her house.
"OH MY GOSH!" Temari hollered. "That was H-A-W-T!"
Sakura pulled her hair out of her bun, it falling in ringlets down her back. "It was nothing."
"That was not nothing," Temari teased. "You liked it."
Sakura blushed as pink as her hair. "I-I did not."
"Whatever you say."
Deidara mouth was wide open as Itachi and Tobi walked back to Sakura's side of the house. Itachi and Tobi walked down the street for as long as Sakura could see them and then ran back to their hiding spot.
"Did you just kiss Sakura?"
"Yes she was apparently dared to."
Sasori opened up a bottle of water. "You didn't kiss her for very long."
"That's because you always leave them wanting more," Itachi smirked. "And Sakura would probably try to cause serious damage to me if I did what I really wanted to do."
"What was that?" Deidara glared at him.
"That is for me and Sakura to find out in the near future."
"Enough about that weak kiss, I got something better," Tobi grinned ear to ear. He reached into his back pocket and pulled out a black lacy bra.
"You went searching through her drawers," Deidara said surprised.
"No wonder it took you so long," Itachi muttered eyeing the bra himself.
"And guess what, my thong I gave her was in there."
Sasori rolled his eyes.
"I wonder if she ever wore it," Tobi wondered.
Itachi snatched the bra from Tobi's hands and held it up to the moonlight. "So who gets to keep it?"
"I do it was my idea to go and get it," Tobi declared grabbing the bra back.
"Well I brought all the snacks, yeah," Deidara reminded them seizing the bra for himself.
"I got to kiss Sakura," Itachi smirked taking the bra back. "And provided transportation here."
A tug-of-war then started over the black lacy bra.
Sasori chucked from his lawn chair. "You guys are fighting over a bra."
"Yes we are," they answered together.
Sasori walked up to the three and grabbed the bra for them. "I think you guys need to go clear your head, it's just a bra."
Tobi pointed his finger at Sasori. "He just wants to keep the bra for himself." He jumped on a rock and thumped his chest like Tarzan. "ATTACK!" Tobi screamed jumping on Sasori.
"Am I the only person that saw Sakura kiss Itachi?" Naruto said rubbing his eyes.
"No I saw it too," Kiba said.
Gaara's breathed in deeply trying to calm himself down. He was getting all worked up just because she kissed Itachi. He had been so confused about his feelings lately; he thought he actually liked her. But it couldn't be true. They had been best friends since the second grade.
Gaara stood up and walked towards Sakura's door.
"What are you doing?" Shino whispered.
"I think he's about to knock on the door."
Naruto, Kiba, Shino, and Shikamaru followed him to Sakura's house. Gaara knocked three times firmly on the oak door.
The door opened and Sakura stood in the living room, Temari and Hinata behind her.
"Umm…what are you guys doing here?"
"Gaara?" Temari said confused.
"N-naruto," Hinata whispered.
"Hey Hinata," Naruto winked at her. "What's going on?"
Hinata's heart fluttered as she hit the floor. Naruto grabbed fist full of his hair. "Why does this keep happening to me? What am I doing wrong?"
"Did you kiss Itachi?" Gaara asked since they were here.
"Oh it was just a dare," Sakura waved her hand like it was nothing.
"Ooooooo," Kiba singed. "That explains everything."
Gaara breathed a sigh of relief. She still kissed Itachi but it was not her choice. It made it a bit better.
Temari crossed her arms and looked at her little brother. "How do you guys even know that happened?"
"Umm," Gaara scratched his head. "That is a good question…for Shikamaru?"
Everyone turned their heads towards him. "Hey I was dragged here, ask Naruto."
Everyone turned their heads to Naruto who was on the couch with the unconscious Hinata. "She has a pulse, she's alive."
"Okay fine we have been sitting outside trying to see your sleepover."
Sakura laughed, tears streaming down her face. "I can't believe you guys went through all that trouble."
"You could have been doing something naughty," Kiba growled raising his eyebrows.
"No we wouldn't."
Sakura's dad came down the stairs yawing in his in a winkled t-shirt and boxers. He froze on the steps and looked at all the people standing in the living room.
"Hi boys," her dad greeted them.
"We just stopped by," Gaara explained.
"Okay," her dad smiled rushing into the kitchen.
Sakura smiled at her friends. "I'll make sure that we do something fun next weekend. If you guys missed me so much"
"That's what I'm talking about," Naruto said standing up. "Hinata seems to be waking up so maybe we should leave."
Sakura opened the door. "Good night guys." Sakura planted a kiss on Naruto's cheek as he exit.
She did the same for Kiba, Gaara, Shino and Shikamaru. She waved to them one more time before closing the door.
"She kissed me," Naruto panted fainting to the ground. Kiba fell on top of him. "My kiss was longer than yours."
"No it was not," Naruto said irritated.
"It was too."
"It was-"
"Can we just go home?" Shikamaru suggested.
The boys headed in their separate directions ready to hop into their beds and sleep in late since tomorrow was Saturday. "GOOD NIGHT WORLD, I LOVE YOU; I DON'T FEEL BLUE, WHEN I'M WITH YOU!"
"SHUT UP NARUTO!" Kiba, Gaara, Shino, and Shika ordered.
"NOBODY LOVES ME!" Naruto whined.
Itachi stood up and shook the dirt off his hair. Sasori looked at the rip in his brand new shirt Tobi made when he tried to grab the bra from him. Deidara rubbed his red, raw neck where Tobi tried to strangle him with the bra.
Tobi panted as he tried to catch his breath the bra tightly in his clutches.
"I vote," Itachi said weakly out of breath. "We let Tobi keep the bra."
"Agreed," Deidara and Sasori said.
"Yeah," Tobi jumped into the air. "It's the best day ever," he sang spinning the bra around over his head.
"You know Sasuke didn't show up at all," Deidara said wiping the grass of his jeans. "I was pretty sure he was going to pop up or something."
"He went out of town for some tomato festival," Itachi explained. "He missed all the fun."
"Well I think it's time to go home," Sasori said already starting to walk down the street.
"I agree," Deidara said picking up the lawn chairs.
They cleaned up their mess and walked to Itachi's car that was parked two blocks down.
Sakura walked up the steps with a bowl of freshly popped popcorn. She got the girls to agree to watch Wolverine.
Sakura settled down on the floor with Hinata and Temari as the opening credits started. She grabbed a fist full of popcorn when the doorbell ringed.
"Who is it now?" Sakura whined.
Sakura slowing walked down the stairs. The doorbell ringed more urgently.
"I'm coming," Sakura said loudly. Sakura opened the door to Neji panting as he tried to stay on his crutches.
"I came as fast as I could," Neji told her. "I'm ready."
"Umm…that was kind of a misunderstanding," Sakura said.
"But I moisturized my lips with my special chap stick," Neji blurted out. "And I made sure there were no knots in my hair in case you wanted to run your fingers through it and I-"
"That nice…but were not going to be doing any kissing. We're watching a movie."
"But Temari said-"
"I know what she said, but it was just a…joke."
"How cruel," Neji complained.
"SAKURA, YOU'RE MISSING THE MOVIE!"
"Sorry Neji, I have to go," Sakura said. Sakura was about to shut the door when she saw how sad Neji looked. She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before closing and locking it.
Neji's hand went up to his cheek. "She kissed me."
"Sir," Neji's limo driver called.
"SHE KISSED ME!" Neji yelled to the neighborhood.
"SHE KIS-"
Neji tumbled down the stairs his crutches landing on his legs. "That hurt," Neji croaked before passing out.
Neji's limo driver sighed as he opened up the door and dragged Neji inside. "I don't get paid enough to do this."
Sakura watched as the limo pulled off the side of the street and leaded down the road.
"Note to self, never kiss Neji," Sakura muttered to herself.
"S-sakura what are you looking at?' Hinata asked.
"Just looking at your psycho cousin leave."
"I can't believe he actually came," Temari said.
"What did you expect?" Sakura glared at her. "You basically told him I wanted to suck face with him.
"Yeah," Temari grinned. "I am good."
Sakura grabbed her pillow off her bed and hit Temari in the face. "Hey that's not fair, I'm not armed."
She dove for a pillow and started to return fire. Hinata even grabbed a pillow and joined in on the pillow fight.
"Now this is fun," Sakura giggled as feathers bursted out of her pillow floating around the air.
Sakura's dad opened the door. Sakura froze in mid-way of attacking Temari in the back. Her dad rubbed his fingers through his hair. "Just make sure you girls clean this mess up before you go to bed."
"Of course Dad," Sakura smiled. "No need to worry."
Her dad smiled as he started to close the door. "Good night girls."
"Good night Mr. Haruno," Temari and Hinata chimed.
"Night dad," Sakura said.
"I'm going to make pancakes in the morning and freshly squeezed juice, oh and don't forget about the strawberries that I bro-"
"Dad," Sakura whined.
"I'm sorry Sakura, I could resist and this is your first sleepover."
Sakura smiled. "Okay but I want chocolate chip pancakes on my plate."
"No problem," her dad smiled closing the door.
Sorry it took me so long to update, I'm working on a new story! Anyway for the next chapter someone robs a gas station three blocks from the school and since it is in the school zone area the whole school goes into a code red. You know: locking the doors, covering the windows and everyone basically huddling in the corner of the room. Here is a little preview.
Sneak Peak:
Chapter 16: Lock Down
"CODE RED, I REPEAT CODE RED," the women screamed loudly over the intercom.
Asuma-sensei put his hands up "Everyone calm down everything is going to be fine."
"This is so cool," Tobi cried his hands up in the air.
Asuma walked over to his desk and picked up his keys. "I'm going to make sure no students are in the hallway and the;n I'm going to lock the door.
Sakura watched as Asuma opened the door and walked out into the hallway. She bit her lip observing how everyone was franticly looking around the room.
"Do you need me to protect you?" Itachi asked her pointed in his biceps.
"I think I can survive," Sakura rolled her eyes.
"Last year we had a code red," Tobi told her.
"How long did it last?" Sakura asked.
"About two hours," Sasori muttered looking at the ceiling.
"Kisame was in the hallway so he got to come into our class, it was so fun," Tobi smiled filling her in.
Asuma came back into the class with someone behind him. Sakura saw the raven chicken scratch first and sink in her seat.
"Not him," Sakura scowled.
Sasuke already spotted his brother walked over to their table.
"What were you doing in the hallway?"
"Why does it matter what I was doing, mom?" Sasuke smirked at him. He noticed a pink blob out of the corner of his eye.
"Sakura," Sasuke said somewhat surprised.
"Yes, Sakura is in here with me," Itachi smirked grabbing Sakura's hand to hold. Sakura glared at him to let her hand go.
Asuma locked the door and got a few boys in the room to help him close the windows. They finally turned of the lights and everyone was silent.
"Turn off the lights and light candle," Tobi sang.
"Everyone we need to go and move to the back corner of the room."
"Why do we have to do that for?" a boy named Rai asked. "We already closed the door and window."
"Just do as I say," Asuma sighed.
Everyone got up and tried to squeeze in the corner, but there really wasn't much space. Sakura was still standing since all the available seats on the floor were taken.
"Sakura you have to sit down," Asuma told her. "If an intruder was in the school he could see you from the glass window on the door."
"There nowhere else to sit," Sakura replied.
"You can sit in my lap," Itachi smirked patting his crossed legs on the ground.
End of Sneak Peak.
