Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. But I do own the plot of this fic. Yay me (:

Round and round the bottle goes…

Where it stops, nobody knows…

Emerald eyes looked at the empty beer bottle, as if willing it to move another person over, but it didn't move from its position with the nozzle pointed at Sakura. It was silent for a while and it seemed as if every single person was waiting it to continue its spinning rounds. It was Tenten who broke the silence.

"Well, go for it, Neji," Her voice was so quiet that barely anybody heard. "You know what comes next in the game."

A chuckle came from Kiba who was sitting next to her. She looked over a met his eyes as he cracked a grin. "This is going to be good, Uchiha's gonna freak." His voice was just loud enough for her to hear.

But for some reason she didn't feel excited to see the look on Sasuke's face, as she would normally have been. A pang went though her as she watched Neji sigh and stand up to walk over to the pink-haired girl.

"Ten seconds, Hyuuga." Ino yelled louder then necessary through her laughter, "It has to last at least ten seconds. I want to see some tongue action if possible." She stopped laughing for a moment to wink.

"Awwhh, I wanted to kiss Sakura-chan!" Naruto's voice was the only sound as Neji kneeled down and grabbed the nervous girl's chin.

Tenten wanted to look somewhere else as their lips collided. But she couldn't will her eyes away from observing how their mouths moved in sync, how Neji's hand moved along her jaw line, how Sakura's eyes fluttered closed. She couldn't help but notice that when the ten seconds were up, their hands lingered on each other's faces even after they pulled away and their eyes stayed on contact.

She couldn't help but wonder why her heart hurt.

When Neji was sat back down, three conversations started at once. Unfortunately for Tenten, as she wasn't a part of any of them, she had no choice of listening what the others around her were saying or not.

"Ohmigod I just can't get over this. Is he a good kisser?" Tenten tuned out before the blushing Sakura could answer.

The next conversation centred around Neji himself.

"You lucky dog! So how was it?" She tuned out of that one too. The only other conversation going on was between two people. The look on Sasuke's face indicated that he was already annoyed enough as it was without Kiba bothering him.

The black-haired boy let out a sidelong glare at the Inuzuka, making him shut up immediately. "I already told you once. I don't care."

Since that seemed to be the end of that conversation, Tenten isolated herself to the safety of her own thoughts. Everyone acted like they were high school kids again, gossiping about who's going out with who and who's jealous.

She sighed to herself angrily. It was just one kiss; one kiss in the game of 'spin the bottle' nonetheless. No one, herself included, should be getting so worked up about it. As if Ino had read her mind, the blonde spoke up. "Okay then, enough of that. We're going clockwise, so Sasuke-kun, you're next."

"This is getting troublesome. It should be a girl who goes now, since Neji just did." Shikamaru sat up from his position lying on the floor, apparently because he had been trying to avoid all the 'troublesome' conversations and yawned as he stretched. "Let's go with Tenten."

Him saying her name caught her off guard. She looked over and glared at him, noticing that his eyes were flicking between Neji, Sakura and herself. She looked over at Ino beside her and saw that she was giving her a look that said 'spin-it-but-if-it-lands-on-Shikamaru-then-I'll-kill-you' sighing, the brunette reached for the bottle and spun it harder then she meant to. It swirled around in a blurry circle.

Damn that Shikamaru she found herself thinking as she watched the empty beer bottle, He knows these things better then a girl. She was so busy cursing people that she failed to notice the bottle stopped.

When a loud 'ohhhhhh' filled the large living room she looked up and saw the nozzle was pointed at none other than Uchiha Sasuke.

She looked up at him, her chocolate eyes mirroring the same look that said 'how-ironic' as his black orbs. Sighing, she stood up and walked across the circle to him, she could feel all eyes on her. When she sat on her knees in front of him, it took all her will power not to look at Neji who was sitting beside him.

Sighing again, Tenten leaned forwards and touched her lips to Sasuke's, expecting him to sit there like the ice sculpture he was. What she didn't expect was for him to wrap an arm around her waist to pull her in and kiss her hard. She let out a small squeak of surprise before realisation donned on her.

Despite what he said about not caring, Sasuke was trying to make Sakura jealous.

Convincing herself that that feeling in her stomach wasn't because she wanted to make Neji jealous, but because she wanted to help Sasuke out, she wrapped one of her arms around his neck and the other she placed softly on his cheek. She neither knew nor cared whether it's been ten seconds or not.

She felt Sasuke smirk against her face. He leaned back so his back was flat on the ground and so that she was on top of him. He licked her bottom lip as his hands made their way to her hips where he rested them lazily. Tenten opened her mouth slightly and felt his tongue slip into her mouth and begin to explore every nook and cranny it. She slipped the tip of her own tongue along the bottom of his; tasting the remnants of the extra strong peppermint gum he had been chewing earlier.

Tenten had to admit that he was an excellent kisser, but she didn't like peppermint. She much preferred spearmint.

Before they could get any further, she felt a pair of strong arms pulling her off. Finally looking up, she saw Neji looming over her, his hand still on her shoulder. "It's been longer then ten seconds."

No one said anything. Tenten looked around the circle to see people's faces. Most of them were shocked, except for Sakura, who wore an expression of annoyance and looked away as soon as soon as their eyes met. She looked at Sasuke, who was propped up on his elbows, his ebony eyes never wavering from Sakura.

Finally, she looked at Neji. He was looking across the room seemingly interesting in a tiny spider that was making its way up the wall. She suddenly wished she were a spider. If she was then she could just eat everyone and not have to worry about making up an explanation. Then she almost laughed out loud and pushed the thought out of her mind.

Slowly, she stood up and smiled. "Yeah, sorry about that." Then she walked back to her spot in the circle between Kiba and Ino and promptly sat down. "So, what's next?"

"Let's go swimming." Ino's statement was completely out of line and everyone looked at her like she was insane. But strong a girl she was, she didn't give way to those looks. "I mean, it's perfect for a time like this, right?"

"Perfect? Are you crazy? It's almost winter; we'll all get hypothermia, and I have class tomorrow, I can't get sick." Even though she was trying to hide it, Sakura's voice made it completely obvious that she was still angry.

Ino looked at her wearily. "I meant an indoor pool, baka. And don't complain to us that you have class, it was your choice to go to med school."

The pinkette huffed and looked away. Tenten sighed tapped her fingers against the hardwood floor, her nails making clicking sounds. "Ino, it's almost eight and it's a Sunday. Good luck finding a public pool at this time."

"Public pool!" Ino looked disgusted, "Public pools are the definition of disgusting, I wouldn't go in one if you paid me. What I'm saying is that Shikamaru has an indoor pool."

Everyone looked at her more oddly than even before.

Shikamaru quirked an eyebrow at her. "How do you know I have an indoor pool? That's troublesome, and kind of creepy." He sighed and scratched the back of his head. "Besides, it's not mine. It's my cousin's; she'll shoot me if we use it. She's almost as troublesome as my mom."

"I'm not in the mood for swimming." Tenten decided finally. Sighing again she stood up and stretched. "I'm headed to the hospital before visiting hours are over. I hope he doesn't throw things at me again."

No one said anything to that. But Neji found himself wondering whether or not he was the only person who didn't know that she had a five-year-old son and for some reason it agitated him. Then he started wondering who the father was. He knew she wasn't some whore, and after what just happened he started wondering whether it was Uchiha Sasuke or not.

Then finally Neji started to wonder why he cared. It's not like he thought of her like that, right?

Damn it. He though. These stupid hormones, why won't they go away?

As Tenten walked over to the closet a cell phone started ringing. Several people flipped theirs open and closed it again when they saw that the call wasn't for them. Tenten dug hers out of her pocket and said, "Mine."

She clicked the green talk button and put the mobile to her ear. "Hello?"

All the other people could hear was the low buzzing of the male voice on the other line. Tenten herself was shocked and she hardly believed who she was talking to. Quickly, she caught on to the conversation and gave a time and date to the person she was speaking to. After a quick goodbye she snapped her phone shut and just stared at it.

"Who was that?" It seemed like four or five people asked her at once.

Tenten looked over at her friends and forced a smile. "Sorry, but I have to go now. Don't worry, it wasn't anyone you need to worry yourselves about…" She quickly grabbed her coat and walked out the front door. As she got into her car she finished her sentence. "…yet"
