Chapter 3 Silhouettes of a Perfect Frame

On the day before the engagement party was scheduled Kiba,Genma, and some other guys had planned a reunion for the Rookie 9. Neither Sakura,Hinata, Ten Ten or Ino had wanted to go but Kiba just had to use Akamaru's cuteness to get them to go. The girls just knew the guys would be there with their fiances. The only good part about the whole thing was that they got to go shopping for new outfits. So after much showering, putting on make up and fussing over hair they stepped out of Ino's house withe these outfits on:

Ino had on a spagetti strapped top, some regular denim short shorts and some four inch sliver high heels. Ten Tan had on a red tube top, a denim skirt that stopped at mid-thigh with shorts under it, (a/n:she never could break her habit of disliking skirts so she made peace with it by wearing shorts under it so its not like a skirt at all to her if that makes sense) and on her feet she wore low top Nike Air Force One's. Hinata wore a white tube tube top that had the words "I'm no Angel" in purple and silver letters,she had on a purple Dickies skirt(a/n:much like the one i own.) and on her feet she wore silver heels like Ino's and around her neck she wore a silver heart shaped lockett that had once held a picture of Naruto. Sakura wore a pink tank top with the words "Take a Picture It'll Last Longer" in white and silver. She had on a denim shorts with pink embrooidery on the back pockets and her shoes were white,pink and silver Nike Air Force One's.They admitted that they felt awsome with their new clothes and walked to the park where the party was held with a new bounce in their step than before.

When they got there it was 5:45 p.m. and almost everyone they knew were there except for four guys(i'll give you a cookie if you can guess who??) Feeling a little more confident with that knowledge they mingled in with everone and even got into a good spirited game of football(American style) with the guys Hinata and Ino even kicked off their heels to play. The teams wen like this: Kiba, Ten Ten, Sakura, and Chouji against Hinata, Ino, Lee and Konahamaru. The game started off alright with Hinata's team in the lead.Then Kiba's team was behind by four points, the score was 10-14 and just as Ten Ten scored 2 more points, Sasuke, Shikamaru,Neji, and Naruto showed up and sat on the grass with the rest of the spectators.

Hinata then called her time out to so she could tell them the final play.

"Okay everyone listen up! They have caught up with us and this is the last quarter. The final play is to pass the ball to Lee, since he is the fastest one on the team. Did you get that?Good.Now one thing I will not tolerate is failure on this team so if one of you are the cause of our demise,you will die. Failure is NOT an option!" Everyone looked at Hinata with a mixture of fear and shock at the word die.

"Hinata surely you don't mean..." Ino began but was cut off mid-sentence.

"Ino-chan,I'm only joking,"she smiled and everyone breathed sighs of relief because they all knew Hinata was as good as her word. "No I'm going to torture you very slowly and painfully if we don't win this game." Konahamaru decided that as the late 3rd Hokage's grandson he should step up and try to talk to Hinata.

"Hinata-san torture is a little extreme-" He was cut off and backed away in fear when Hinata went off on him.

"YOU DARE QUEsION YOUR TEAM CAPTAIN?!THIS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED KONAHAMARU!IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY METHODS THEN YOU CAN GET OFF MY TEAM OR BETTER YET BUILD A BRIDGE AND JUMP OFF!"she yelled."WE ARE GOING TO WIN OR I WILL PERSONALLY SHOW YOU WHY ITACHI UCHIHA AIN'T GOT SHIT ON ME!" Konahamaru fainted and some unkown person came and dragged him off the field. Hinata started breathing heavily, her shoulders shaking. The spectators were shocked,especially Naruto, he had never seen Hinata act like that before,he was afraid and turned on at the same time. Sasuke wanted to know why his older brother'ain't got shit' on Hinata but after careful contemplation decided he was better off not knowing. Neji understood, for he lived in the same house as Hinata ans she had gone off on him too,more than once in fact since she'd gottne over her speech problem. Shikamaru just didn't care and promptly fell asleep in the grass under the shade of a sakura tree.

After much debating, them members of Hinata's team decided to make Lee go and see if she was alright. Lee didn't understand why Ino wouldn't go since she was one of Hinata's best friends after all and what he got was a look that told him he'd better get going or something extremely bad would happen to him in 10 seconds so he left quickly to comfort the destraut Hyuuga. Lee would never admit it out loud but he was shaking in his green spandex suit which was skin tight. He was going to put a hand on Hinata's shoulder, but just as his outstretched fingers were about to make contact, she started to giggle,louder and louder.-My Kami, she's finally cracked-Lee thought as he backed away.

"H-Hinata?"Lee said uncertainly.

"I'm so sorry you guys, sometimes i get a little competitive,"she smiled innocently,Ino and Lee fell down anime style and they got bakc into the game. But before they left Hinata said,"Remember have fun with it and I'M WATCHING YOU!" she empahasized this with a point of her fingers to her Byakugan.

While Hinata gave her team a "pep talk" Kiba took the time to tell his team their new play.

"Okay you guys this is the last quarter and I have a feeling that they're gonna give the ball to Lee since he's the fastest one on their team, and that gives us the advantage." Ten Ten and Chouji nodded but Sakura didn't get it.

"How do we have the advantage if all Lee has to is jog to the goal and we loose?"she asked.

"Well we have the advantage because Lee has a crush on a certain pink haired girl on our team,"Kiba explained grinning widely at the look on Sakura's face.

"No Way!"she immediately shook her head. She couldn't beleive the nerve of these guys to use her like that,even though admitly as a kunoichi she got used for worse things on missions so in comparisson this wasen't all that bad.

"But Sakura you must!If you do this for us we'll fond a way to get rid of that disgusting smell that comes from your bathroom on very hot days in the summer,"Kiba offered, Sakura turned bright pink at the mention of this.

"But how do you know..."She looked at Ten Ten who was avoiding her eyes.

"What!?" Ten Ten exclaimed, her brown eyes darted back and forth nervously.

"You told them!"Sakura yelled.

"I'm sorry Sakura;sacrifices must be made for the greater good!"Ten Ten shot back, her jaw set determindly.

"This.Is.Just.A.GAME!!"Sakura exploded. She and Ten Ten were ready to go at it until Chouji stepped in.

"Look are you gonna do it or not Sakura?We are wasting time and I would like to get to Ichikiru's before they close"He said point blank. Sakura's anger dided down a little and Ten Ten backed off and listened as Kiba told them his plan.

"Sakura, you're job is to distract Lee long enough so I can tackle him and you get the ball while Ten Ten and Chouji block Hinata and Ino. Got it?"

"Hai!" they chorused and the game was on again.Just as Kiba had predicted,Lee caught the football Ino thre to him and began to run like the wind. Kiba scanned the field for Sakura and found her in their "meeting spot" waiting for the green beast as he neared. Sakura started to giggle flirtasiously and called out,"Lee-kun could you do me a huge favor?" Lee instantly ran up to her and struck his signature nice guy pose and said,"Oh Sakura-chan,my youthful love, what is it that you reqiure?" Sakura "shyly" twirled a piece of her bubblegum colored locks around a finger, and beckoned him closer with another finger. He walked forwad in awe and love at her beauty and when he was close enough for her she leaned forward and whispered,"Give me the football." Her lips lightly touched his ear as she drew back. Lee blushed red at the contact and nodded dumbly as he handed her the ball. Hinata saw the whole scene and she actually tackled Chouji to charge toward Lee yelling,"LEE YOU FUZZY BROWED IDIOT!DON'T GIVE HER THE BALL!" Lee snapped to his senses but it was too late . Kiba tackled Lee and passed the ball back to Sakura while he wrestled the taijutsu maniac. Sakura dashed to the gial as soon as the ball touched her hand,winning the game for her team. And now Sakura was being treated to drinks for their victory. It was a happy time for all-except Lee who had been strangled by Hinata, but he was alright when they pulled her off of him.


xXx...

As the day wore on and it started to get darker,Kiba suggested that everyone go to the new bar Ichikiru's Ramen Shop had opened up called "Nin 21". they all agreed, not wanting to turn in just yet.The place was bangin' and everyone was having a good time. Shino even bought a round of drinks for everyone aand they were pretty tipsy when the music started to play.

Naruto suddenly stood and walked over to Hinata and asked her to dance. She giggled madly and accepted. The alcohol made her forget any anger she had towards him for the time being. They slow danced to 'No Air' by Jordan Sparks ft. Chris Brown and Naruto whispered to Hinata,"You look really pretty tonight Hinata-chan." She smiled and suddenly remembered something.

"Thanks but where's that woman you're supposed to be marrying?" she asked him.looking up into his blue eyes intently. Naruto's fox-like grin dropped to a grimace at the mention of her name.

"Sana and the others didn't want to come tonight because they said they had more important things to do than meet my friends,"he explained.

That made Hinata dislike Sana even more;the thing she hated more than anything else was a snob and it was because she'd grown up in a family full of them. They acted as if they were better than everyone else which was why in the Hyuuga family the elders sometimes forced the younger caln members to marry distant cousins if they couldn't find anyone else higher on the social food chain. But desoite this Hinata hadn't turned out the same way thankfully.

Naruto saw that he had upset her so he began to twirl her around, making h er giggle. As Naruto twirled Hinata gracefully, their best friends watched with longing in their eyes. So under the influence of good ole sake, the guys went and asked the girls to dance.

But the time for slow dancing was gone and now 'Hot Stuff' by Pussycat Dolls started to play. Ino snatched Shikamaru onto the dance floor before he could even aske her to dance. Neji asked Ten ten and she nodded. Sasuke,the cocky bastard, just took Sakura by the hand and led her on the dance floor, thinking that she would never refuse him so why bother with asking. Fortunately Sakura was on a partying mood or he would've found himself flying towards Hokage mountain fullspeed when she punched him. So basically the same thing that happened with Hinata and Naruto happened to them too, except the slow dancing part. Ino was grinding on Shikamaru,who flushed red a little,Sakura lifted her arms above her head and moved in time to the beat and Sasuke's eyes glinted with approval through the flashing lights. Neji,however was a little annoyed that Ten Ten stayed a few inches away from him while she danced seductivly before his pale lavender eyes. He finally got fed up and grabbed her hips,pulling her against his chest. Ten Ten smacked his hands off her and moved back to her original spot,but she faced forward with a naughty grin on her face,shaking her finger at him and giggled,"Uh uh uh,no touchy, Mr. Ice Queen!" Neji almost growled in irritation. -When did i become Mr. Ice Queen?and how can i be a Mr. queen any way?I'll show her Ice Queen-Neji thought. He jerked Ten Ten back to him, smirking at her very visible blush through the darkness.

But as we know all good things must come to an end. The party ended a little after 2 am because most of them had missions later that morning. So the guys,being the gentlemen they were, walked the girls home...
