Okay everyone so i told you before this would take a while to update and it did. sorry. But i worked as quickly as i could on it. I think i have a problem with embarrassing the characters because there is many points where i could but i don't. i should though it would make the story funnier. I think i did good on grammar and spelling this time; please tell me if u see any mistakes but try to be nice about it. Do you know how boring it gets rereading your own story for mistakes. Ok so thank you to all of those who reviewed. Please review again.

sorry if any one is out of character

The Proper Way to Dance

As the twelve ninja and four princesses entered the dance studio their eyes widened. It was not because the room was very large because it wasn't but because full length mirrors surrounded three walls reflecting them many times. The floor also reflected them, they were very well polished. Long blue benches sat where two walls formed a corner that had probably been set up for them to sit and rest and where the boys could sit to watch. There was another door in the diagonal corner of the room that was assumed to be another entrance and one in the opposite corner labeled closet.

"Wow, this room is awesome" Sakura said loudly so the 'wow' echoed. The rest entered after her, the boys taking seats on the long blue benches. They seemed to be looking forward to the girls coming embarrassment when they attempt to dance.

"This is where you will be learning to dance," Harumi said. She went and opened the closet and began moving things around. "Yukiko, where did you put the CD player?" She asked looking back out the door.

"It is on the top shelf." Yukiko answered like it was no problem. Harumi gave her a very unkind stare.

"How did you even get it up there?" She muttered and turned to the boys, all whom were taller then her. "I hate to be a burden but could one of you possible help me get the CD player down?"

"Don't feel like a burden Harumi, these boys are used to being bossed around by women." Ino commented. The boys gave her a what-are-you talking-about look which she returned with a you-know-its-true look.

"I shall help you." Lee said enthusiastically hopping up and going to the closet. Even being taller Lee had to step up on a box to reach the top shelf and once he had the thing in his hands he lost his balance, he and the CD player came crashing to the floor.

"Oh goodness are you okay?" Harumi asked helping him up.

"I'm fine" He smiled, all his shiny teeth showing and pinging.

"Well that's good, but I think your CD player might be broken" Tenten had picked up the CD player which one part was hanging loose from the other.

"This is not good, how will we play the music?" Akiko said worriedly. Everyone stopped to think for a minute. Ino looked around at everyone then her eyes stopped on Hinata. The light bulb clicked on in her head.

"I Got It!" She shouted startling them. "Hinata did you bring it?" Hinata looked at the blonde with confusion across her face.

"What…?"

"That's right from the phone conversation" Sakura said excitedly now catching on to what Ino was going on about.

Hinata still was not sure what they were talking about. "Your music player Hinata the one we talked you in to bringing"

"OH" Hinata said in a squeak. She blushed feeling kind of stupid. "Yes I brought it."

"I'll go get it" Ino said running out the door, then ran back in. "How do I get back to the room?" she asked sheepishly.

"Suzu will show you" Yukiko said. Suzu leapt up from her spot on the floor and headed out of the room with Ino following her.

"What if her music player doesn't have the right music on it?" Kiba asked.

"Well I'm sure it will have something close enough to what we need." Sakura said smiling. 'If I remembered correctly we had about every song downloaded on to it at the last sleep over' she thought.

About five minutes later they returned, Ino carrying Hinata's music player and the speakers that hooked to it. "Where should I put it?"

"Just set it up over here" Natsumi said. The two blondes set up the music and they found a slow ballad that would work for learning to dance.

"We will go get your partners they should be here by now" Harumi said and they left the room. The other girls gathered in a group while they waited.

"Do any of you actually know anything about dancing?" Tenten questioned sounding worried she did not want to feel like a complete idiot if she was the only one who didn't know what she was doing. While Ino and Sakura shook their heads Hinata nodded.

"You really know how to dance?" Sakura asked impressed.

"Well yes, sort of. I think it's like a rule that everyone in my family has to learn" she said, her family was rather proper themselves which would explain why she knew what she was doing all day, the curtsies and the cooking etc.

"No offence but your family is kind of strange" said Ino. Hinata did not seem to care at all, she herself found her family too strict but she wasn't about to tell anyone that.

"When you say everyone does that mean Neji had to learn too?" Tenten asked with a mischievous smile and glancing over at the boys group. Hinata nodded. "Well that's interesting to know."

'Maybe i shouldn't have told her that' Hinata thought 'Neji's going to be mad at me'

"I bet it will be hilarious watching them dance" Naruto said already beginning to laugh. The boys were sitting against the wall on the two benches talking amongst themselves. Even though not all of them admitted it watching their female teammates embarrass themselves was quite funny to them. Other then Lee who seemed to have complete confidence that they four girls could handle anything they were asked to do.

"Yeah I really doubt any of them will know what they're doing" Chouji said between handfuls of chips.

"Well they might know sort of what their doing, they are fairly coordinated?" Shino said only half paying attention to them.

"Yeah right" Kiba said not believing his teammate.

"Well Hinata will know what she is doing" Neji said, they gave him a how would you know look. "She had to learn for some reason." He was not about to tell them that he knew how to dance too. 'The loud mouths would make sure everyone they ever met knew' He glared a Naruto and Kiba.

"Well that's only Hinata, Ino, Sakura and Tenten will be the amusing ones to watch."

"Well even if you do know what your doing Hinata the rest of us are going to look like a bunch of idiots and of course are dear teammates are going to be sticking around just to watch." Sakura had given the words 'dear teammates' a very sarcastic touch.

"And we are going to have to learn to do this in high heels, my feet still hurt from this morning!" Ino complained. As Sakura and Ino continued the list of all that could go wrong with the lesson they did not notice Akiko, Harumi, Yukiko, and Natsumi had came back through the door followed by four others. Four very handsome others. Tenten and Hinata did notice this and Hinata's cheeks became instantly redder.

"...And I'll probably break my partners foot" Ino blabbered on. "this is going to be horrible"

"Speaking of partners," Tenten turned Ino around and then Sakura. Both of their eyes widened and jaws dropped.

"Well maybe this won't be as bad as we thought" Sakura said in a very cheerful tone much different then the one she just had.

"Yes actually I just had the feeling that these lessons are going to be a lot better" The girls burst into a fit of giggles and even though they seemed fond of their dance teachers the boys looked rather annoyed with these new arrivals.

"Alright so umm…Sakura, Hinata, Tenten, and Ino these are your partners for you to dance with." Harumi introduced them. There were more smiles on the girl's part. (I did not feel the need to give them names I was just too lazy to)

"So let's begin partner up." Natsumi said clapping her hands.

"Wait don't we need to change back into the high heels" Ino asked.

"Well we thought from are experience this morning it would be better for you to learn the steps first. Get a feel for what you're doing." Yukiko said trying hard not to mention too much of the failed attempts from that morning. 'Oh thank goodness, I don't think my feet could take any more of them today' Tenten thought to herself. The girls were relieved to hear this and then gladly paired up with the dancers.

"I'll talk you through it" Harumi said she and the other proper girls walked around adjusting each of the improper ones. "First stand facing your partner, remember good posture and eye contact." She watched them carefully for imperfections.

"Okay good next the boy bows or in some cases…" the four boys each obviously of proper up bringing took one of each of the girl's hands and kissed it. There was grinning and giggling all around as excepted but the original excepted smirks from the boys looked more like scowls.

"After that the girl curtsies back to him" Each girl followed the step trying to remember what they had learned that morning about curtsying. It was slightly easier when not having to worry about balancing in the high heels.

"Very good, ok next the girl places their left hand on the boys shoulder and their right in his left hand. The boy at this point places his right hand on the girl's waist." Harumi walked around checking if they did this properly. The boys still sitting off in the corner looked somewhat grumpy and some a little (a lot) more then others. After they were in the proper positions it became much more difficult. The dance contained many turns and spins and although the girls were graceful when it came to fighting on missions and sparring during training they looked quite uncoordinated as they were led across the wooden floor. With the exception of Hinata every turn ended with a foot stepped on. Even if they didn't say it, the girls were sure their partners were happy that they were not wearing high heels. After what felt like a million times through the song the turns were becoming easier to remember but the under the arm spins were still incredibly complicated and many times they were helping each other up off the ground. During one spin Tenten and Ino had collided and succeeded in knocking down their own partners and crashing into the boys.

"Still think they're coordinated?" Kiba asked. Shino didn't respond. 'That's the last time I put my opinion in.'

"I think we may want to stop now" Akiko said as she helped up the blushing Tenten.

"Yes that's a good idea. We can just go a little longer tomorrow." Harumi said. Turning to the dancers, those who had fallen were back up on their feet; she curtsied and led them out the door.

"Well that was exhausting!" Sakura said as she dropped to the floor right where she had been standing. Ino and Tenten had made it to the benches with the boys and Hinata still stood. After they princesses had realized she knew what she was doing they offered to let her sit aside but Hinata insisted on continuing not wanting to leave the others to suffer without her.

"Hinata your really good at all this proper stuff" Naruto complimented the dark haired girl. She looked down at her feet and gave a quiet thank you. "Seriously you make the others look pathetic" If any of them had enough energy they would have hit him over the head but really Hinata did make them all look bad, not that it was on purpose. Harumi re-entered the room carrying four water bottles and handed one to each kunoichi.

"That was pretty good for a first attempt, your picking up the steps really quickly." Yukiko said she was being very optimistic. It was true they learned the steps but learning and performing were two completely different things.

No one had responded to her comment, the girls because they didn't believe they would get any better and the boys because any comments they could possible make would most likely lead to some form of pain. Instead they sat listening to the song play through again as the girls gulped down the water.

"What do we have to learn next?" Ino asked finishing off the last of her water.

"Well you will not really have to learn anything, next you are going see are personal dresser so he can make dresses for you to wear on Friday."

"Well that kind of sounds like fun" Ino said smiling a bit. Hinata agreed.

"What do you think Tenten, Sakura?"

Neither of them answered. Sakura was adjusting something on the music player and Tenten, who had sat down between Neji and Lee, seemed to be out of it. She was rocking back and fourth with her eyes closed and mouthing something. Soon they realized that the song that they learned to dance to had stopped and hadn't been restarted so the next song was playing now. Sakura must have been turning it up because now the words and melody could be heard through the whole room. Next they realized that the words matched what Tenten was mouthing.

"Why not just turn that thing off now?" Sasuke asked, possible he was annoyed with the music.

"No I like this song" Sakura had joined in mouthing the words too embarrassed to just sing it out loud.

"Me too" Tenten said finally opening her eyes. Some of them were staring at her strangely. The song playing was a very girly romancey song and they were surprised that she knew all the words to something that seemed so unlike her. (a/n: Use your imagination to pick a very girly romancey song I was afraid that if I picked one others might not like it).

"What?" she asked them wondering why they were all staring at her. 'honestly looking at me like im the strange one'

Together they muttered "nothing" and turned their attention away from her. Ino and Hinata must have also recognized the song but this was not as shocking to them. The song played all the way through before anyone really talked the princesses were giving the four girls strange looks.

"Don't you know the words to that song?" Ino asked them. They shook their heads. 'I thought everyone knew the words to that one'

"I think that maybe we should head down now" Akiko suggested. Hinata unhooked her music player and they all left the studio.
