Chapter 7
Finally Rai was let out of the hospital, but only if she promised not to exert herself for at least a week. She promised….with her fingers crossed.
"But I'm bored!" Rai yelled at Kakashi. She had tried to show Naruto a Jutsu and Kakashi tied her to a chair.
"You aren't supposed to exert yourself for a week," Kakashi answered looking up from his book.
"I'm still bored."
"Sasuke and Naruto are bringing food over and Sakura is telling everyone that you're out and they can visit, you won't be so bored in a little bit."
"That doesn't help me now." Kakashi closed his book and looked at her.
"What are you going to do here? Don't get me wrong I like your being here, but what are you going to do?" Kakashi asked.
"I don't know. I didn't really plan this Kakashi. I only thought of saving my brother."
"Good, then you have a lot of choices," Kakashi stated as he went back to his book.
"Hey, what do you think of the Sand ninja?"
"You seem to have made friends with them pretty easily."
"Yeah, I think they are cool," Rai said staring off into space.
"Are you thinking of all the sand ninja or of a certain one?" Kakashi asked, smirking.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Rai answered, blushing.
"Yup, you're in love."
"I don't even know the guy yet, how can you say that?!"
"I just know, and plus you just admitted it is one of them."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not!"
"Did too!" Just them Naruto and Sasuke walked in with enough food for about a week.
"Did too, what?" Sasuke asked confused.
"Kakashi's making fun of me, help," Rai whined.
"Kakashi, why are you making fun of the invalid?" Sasuke asked as he and Naruto started putting away the food. It was pretty early so Naruto was kinda dead to the world.
"I was not making fun of her. I was trying to make her admit her feelings towards a certain person," Kakashi clarified looking up from his book with a smirk on his face.
"Really? Who?" Naruto asked, finally looking up.
"It is one of the sand ninja."
"Kakashi when I get better you are going to regret that," Rai said glaring at Kakashi.
"See, she needs a little help in accepting her feelings," Kakashi said sadly shaking his head, making the two boys laugh.
"I think it's ok to let her go now though," Sasuke said, nodding to Naruto so he could untie her.
"Thank you Naruto, now if you'll excuse me I have to go and torture someone," but when she turned to where Kakashi was, he had already disappeared.
"Looks like you just missed him," Sasuke said laughing.
"You just wait, when he comes back he is going to get it," Rai answered, looking evil.
"Who's going to get what?" Sakura asked as she entered the apartment followed by the rest of rookie 9 and the sand ninja.
"Rai's wants to torture Kakashi because he made fun of her," Naruto answered leaving out the part about it being one of the sand ninja.
"Don't waste your energy Rai, anyway we are going to have a party so you don't need to think of that for now," Sakura said as she started putting some snacks together.
"A party?" Rai asked, "What for?" she was confused, don't worry she knew what a party was, but one was never thrown for her.
"For coming out of the hospital in one piece," Sasuke explained, smiling.
Rai still looked confused but accepted the explanation, "Can I choose the music?"
"Sure, it's over here," Naruto said as he led her to Kakashi's room.
"What should we listen to?" Rai said out loud.
"Surprisingly Kakashi has a good CD collection," Naruto said as he sifted through all the CD's.
"Yeah, hey what do you think of the Sand ninja?" Rai asked innocently.
"They seem ok, misunderstood maybe, but ok," Naruto answered.
"What are we going to do at this party?" Rai asked looking a little worried.
"Just have fun, so don't worry alright," Naruto answered as he took her hand al led her back to the living room. This action did not go unnoticed by Sasuke and Gaara…..and Shino and Shikamaru…..and Neji and just about every guy there ok.
"So what do you guys want to do?" Naruto asked everyone, as he let go of Rai's hand after seeing the looks he got from 'most all the guys.
"Why don't we all try to get to know each other a little better," Ino suggested as she inched her way closer to Sasuke, "we are going to be working together in the future. Better to get to know each other now rather than later."
"You know she actually has a point," Rai said, sarcastically of course.
"Truth or Dare?" Sakura suggested.
"It's so juvenile, though," Rai said, smiling all the while, "Truthfully I've never played."
"Then we have to play it now," Naruto said.
"Yeah Rai, please," Sakura asked, giving her puppy dog eyes.
"Ok, fine, so how are we going to play?" Rai asked, looking a little uncertain.
"We'll spin a bottle to decide whose turn it is," Ino said.
"So everyone form a circle," Sakura said taking the initiative.
"Who's starting first?" Naruto asked.
"I'll do that," Ino said as she spun the bottle and it landed on Rai (of course :P)
"Dare," Rai quickly answered.
