The Life of Truth and Dare

Well, I got ten reviews for my first chapter so here goes the next one. I don't need ten reviews for this chapter. I will try to make this chapter a lot longer than the other one. I was kinda in a hurry so that's why the other one was so short. My mom was rushing me off the computer because we were going to go the mall and the market and other places that she wanted to go. She kept talking and talking and talking and blah, blah, blah. Sorry for typing about my problems, but I need to get this off my chest.

Well I feel much better now. Glad I could share even though you guys probably don't care about my personal life only about the story.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of the characters. The only thing that I own is the story and the plot.

Thanks to my friend, Sasunarutolover4life, for helping me out with some of the ideas. And my other friends for reading the full story and correcting my errors. I love 'em all.

Special thanks to Sasunarutolover4life, weaponmistressbunny, DemonicAngel08, and uchinasasuke for being the first four people to review.

I'm sorry. I didn't really put in what Naruto did after hearing Hinata's confession. It'll be on the next chapter though. I'm so sorry for the people who wanted to know what he was going to do…

Now, on with the chappy…

"Why do you like Naruto?" "What?" "Yeah like, what makes you like him?" "Um… Hinata started blushing and she didn't want to answer nor eat the leftover mush…

"Hinata, we're waiting," said Sakura. "Well, I don't exactly know why. I guess because he's different than every other boy and the way he tries harder is kinda… well… more attractive." Said Hinata and turned away trying to hide a slight blush. "Whoa" The girls said after Hinata's response.

"You wanna tell her?" Ino asked Tenten.

"You bet I do!" she replied with a smile. They walked over to Hinata and whispered "Hinata, guess what?" asked Ino practically pushing her down.

"What? And don't push me so hard Ino."

"Oh. Sorry." Said Ino backing off. Tenten was the one talking now.

"Anyway, the boys, including Naruto, heard you."

"What? How-Where-Why?"

"Calm down, don't freak. They haven't noticed that we've seen them."

"Where are they?"

"At the window" replied Tenten pointing out to the window.

"Oh my…"

"Don't' faint on us Hinata. Just make a good one for Asumi. Okay?"

"Ok. I'll try."

"Ready Asumi?" asked Hinata.

"Yeah. I guess so."

"Okay then. Truth or Dare?"

"Truth!"

"Okay then, who do you like?"

"I'm sorry what?"

"Who do you have a thing for?"

"I guess Lee, but having him chase me around is so much fun!" Asumi said with a grin.

'What? She actually likes him? Who would've known?'

Everyone was thinking that. They were so shocked because she acted like she hated him ever since she met him. They continued their game.

"Okay. Now that my turn is over, you're next Tenten. Truth or Dare?" asked Asumi.

"Dare" was her reply.

"Okay then. I dare you to ask Neji to be your boyfriend."

Neji turned all different shades of red. Tenten fought back the blush that was crawling onto her face trying not to lose the battle.

"Okay…" she said with an annoyed tone of voice.

"Right now." Asumi said pointing out the window.

The boys ducked and ran around trying to hide behind bushes, trees, or anything else that was there to hide in/ behind.

"Fine…" She said even more annoyed, walking over to the window.

"Neji can you come over here please?"

No-one answered…

"Aww… come on Neji. Don't be so mean. Please. Will you come over?"

"Fine…" Neji walked up to her.

"Will you?"

"Will I what?"

"You know"

"Say it"

"Do I?"

"Yes" was Neji's response. Of course he had a little smirk.

"Fine…"

"Well?"

"Aww... Man!"

"Come on, you can say it."

"This is torture!"

"No, this is fun."

"Will you…be…"

"Come now. Don't be shy."

"Will you...I Just Can't!"

"Yes you can."

"NO I CAN'T!"

"Just try to."

"Okay…" she took a deep breath

"Now just say it."

"Neji, will you be… my… boyfriend?"

"Yes."

"…ok –wait. What?"

"I said yes."

"Whoa. Seriously?"

"Well, why not?"

"I didn't think tha-"

"That I liked you?"

"Yeah…"

"Of course I do."

"I never knew."

"Yeah like I never knew that you liked me until I overheard Hinata and Asumi talking about it before they left."

"Oh…"

"Hey, do you guys wanna come in?" asked Ino.

"Sure they all replied.

"Oh yeah. Ino, it's your turn. Truth or dare?" said Tenten after everyone sat down inside.

They boys were on one side and the girls were on the other.

"Dare!"

"Fine, I dare you to whispers walk up to Shikamaru and… (Sorry people. It's a secret)"

"What?"

"Do it!"

"Why?"

"Because it's a dare and, well, I dared you so you have to do it. Okay?"

"No! I won't do it! It's too embarrassing."

"Why? You hosted this party so, it's only fair that you be part of the game as well as the rest of us."

"Yeah. But I really don't wanna do that dare."

"Gomene. But you have to."

"Buy I-"

"At least try to Ino. It's gonna be okay. I just know it."

"Okay. I'll try."

"That's the spirit Ino. Go get 'em!"

"Hang on Ino." Said Sakura. "Hey Tenten. What was the dare?"

"I'll tell you guys right now. Let Ino go outside to do her dare then I'll tell you. And yes I'll tell the guys as well."

"Okay. Ino, go do the dare." Said Sakura already pushing her out the door.

"Hey! Wait! Someone needs to come with me." She said, trying to hold from the door hinge.

"Okay. Ummmm, Shikamaru! You go with Ino!" said Asumi already grabbing him as well as pushing him out like Sakura did to Ino.

"Hey! Asumi! Don't push. And why do I have to go?" asked Shikamaru

"Because Ino's gonna be alone and your on her squad too aren't you Shikamaru?"

"Yeah bu-"

"No buts Shikamaru! You're gonna go right now!" yelled an impatient Sakura.

"Fine. I'll go." 'Geeze, all girls are so troublesome. And bossy looking at them.'

Ino was already outside and once Shikamaru stepped out, the door slammed shut and wouldn't budge.

"Well, guess we're stuck outside." Shikamaru tried to look at Ino, but when ever she'd see him looking at her, she just turned her face. Shikamaru was starting at her now. Trying to figure out why she wouldn't look at him. She was pacing back and forward. Blushing about the fact that they were alone.

"Hey Ino. Are you okay?" Shikamaru grabbed her hand, which made her blush even more, and asked again "Are you okay?"

Inside the house:

"Sakura. Try to calm down please. You don't have to yell at him. Or slam the door." Said Sasuke.

"Sorry, but don't you guys wanna know what the dare is?" she asked

"Oh yeah. What's the dare anyways Tenten?" asked Hinata

"Well the dare is…whispers" (sorry people. Still secret)

"Whoa." Said Asumi

"You're kidding me." Said Hinata

"You actually told her to do that?" said Lee

"Shikamaru's one lucky guy." Said Naruto

"Why Naruto?" asked Hinata

"Huh? Why what?"

"Why is Shikamaru 'one lucky guy'?"

"Oh. I said that out loud? Never mind."

"You sure?"

"Yeah. I'm positive."

"Okay. I'll believe you." 'For now…'

Back to Ino and Shikamaru:

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah. I'm fine Shikamaru… I'm just…"

"You're just what?"

"A little cold that's all. No worries."

"Are you kidding me. You'll get sick if you're outside without a sweater."

"So will you."

"No I won't"

"Yes you will!"

"No I won't!"

"Yes you will!"

"Fine. I will so…"

"So what?"

They're still sitting on the porch.

He hugged Ino, unsure of his feelings for her. She blushed. (Every one awed that moment but of course to themselves.)

"Sika…maru…" was all she was able to say at that moment.

"Hey, you feel warmer?"

"Um yeah but…"

"But what?"

"Never mind."

"Seriously. What did you wanna say?"

"Nah. It's okay Shikamaru. Honestly."

"Okay?" Shikamaru had a confused look at that point, but then

"Hey Ino. Do me a favor?"

"Depends. What's the favor?"

"This"

Shikamaru got Ino and pulled her into a kiss. She was really happy but she really didn't want this. Especially from Shikamaru since he liked Temari and since Ino liked someone else.

She tried to pull away buy no matter what, he would just pull her in harder and harder. He wouldn't let her go. She pushed and couldn't break free. Ino finally kicked him and stood up right away. Shikamaru stood up as well. He grabbed her and turned her around.

"What was that for Ino?"

"Sorry but you wouldn't let me go."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, yeah. Why did you do that anyway? You like Temari not me."

"Who says?"

"Um, lemme think, well everyone. Duh!"

"Like who? Give me names."

"The whole village. Why do you think Lady Tsunade is always sending you guys on missions?"

"But that doesn't mean anything Ino! Trust me!"

"Yeah right."

"It's not just about this huh? You like someone else don't you? Who is it?"

"What? What do you mean I like someone else? How can you judge people like that without even knowing the facts?"

"Who is it? I just wanna know."

"Why? It's none of your business!"

"Your right. I'm sorry."

"Oh great. Know you're mad."

"No I'm not!"

"Yeah you are." Ino giggled at that which made Shikamaru a little nervous.

"What's so funny?" He asked all innocent.

"Oh, nothing Shikamaru."

"Aw Ino. Don't be so mean."

"It's just the way you said it."

"What about the way I said it?"

"Oh, I don't know. It sounded more, well you know."

"Actually no I don't."

"It sounded more. How can I put this? … More cuter."

"More what?"

"Cuter."

"Okay since you say that how come you pulled away earlier then?"

"I don't exactly know. I'm just confused and nervous and… I don't know."

"I think I know why you're like that."

"Really? Why?"

"I can't tell you until tomorrow morning. When we leave. Okay?"

"Fine…"

"Wanna go back inside?"

"Sure."

The others snuck in the back way as fast as they could before Ino and Shikamaru could tell them to let them back in. As soon as they got in, they unlocked the door and sat back down.

"Well, we're back." Said Ino

"Yay! Now we can get back to the game." Said Tenten

"Truth or Dare Naruto?"

"Dare!"

"Okay! I dare you to be Hinata's bodyguard."

"Bodyguard?"

"Yeah like be with her every single day. Protect her both physically and mentally. You get me?"

"Yeah, I do."

"Hey Tenten, what are you doing? Bodyguard?" Asked Sakura

"Uh- yeah! That way they could spend some TIME TOGETHER with an excuse."

"Ohh…"

"Your turn Neji. Truth or Dare?" asked Sakura

"Dare of course."

"Okay, I dare you to break up with Tenten"

"What?"

"Go!"

"No!"

"Excuse me?"

"How can you make me do this?"

"Make up on your own time."

"No I won't do this!"

"Why?"

"Because… Because I just won't do it!"

At this point, everyone was staring at them. They wanted to know what the dare was, but they didn't want to interrupt them talking because they might get yelled at.

"I won't do that! Especially to her!"

Tenten sent a questioning glare at Neji but, he turned away. Not wanting to tell her. No matter how guilty he felt.

"So, you won't do the dare. Right Neji?" Asked Ino

"Well, duh!"

"Why?"

"Because I won't! Don't ask me again!"

"Okay then you have to pay up for not doing the dare."

"What do I have to do? Another dare? What kind of dumb dare?"

"NO! You guys can't do this!" Yelled Tenten

"Hey girl, we're just respecting you rules. Don't blame us, or yell in this case!"

"Sorry but, you couldn't think of the rules fast enough and I wanted to get started with the game."

"Sorry Tenten but, Neji still has to do it."

"Fine… But I'm still not happy about that."

"Okay Neji," Ino added, "you have to run around the village naked, except for your underwear, and sing a song explaining how much you like Tenten."

"What? What makes you think I like Tenten?"

Well, this is my chappy. I know it's not that long but I got 11 reviews and I wanted to make those people happy so I did it in a hurry.

By the way, I need a survey of how many people want Choji to end up with Ino or if you guys want Shikamaru to end up with Ino. It depends on all of you.

I hope everyone liked this chapter. I really tried my best on this. This chapter is dedicated to Sasunaruto4life. Keep up with your story girl. I love it so far!

Thank you to everyone else who reviewed in the previous chapter and I wanted to say thanks to the people who left really nice reviews and gave me advice but, I told myself I was going to name the first four who reviewed. I'll mention the next four who review on this chapter on the third one.

I don't really know how this story is going to go. Whatever my mood is, that's what I type. I feel really happy today so this chapter was kind of weird but, exciting for me. I also wanted to let you guys know that who ever is a 'Kamichama Karin' fan, I'm going to be typing a story about it too. I'm not so sure when though. Probably in a couple days or so.

Anyway, don't forget to review! -
