Hi everyone! I'm back with more KNTM! Enjoy! In this chapter, you'll find out how Shikamaru takes the news! lol.

"I never knew you had a fanclub, Shikamaru..."

Shikamaru glanced over at Naruto. "Didn't expect you to."

"Hey, so you mean you knew about this all along?" asked Kiba, a shocked expression on his face.

"And... you knew it all along, and never told me?" added Chouji. "I thought I was your best friend!"

Shikamaru sweat-dropped. "Of-course not! In case you haven't noticed, these fans are usually quite secretive. Chouji, don't be so sensitive. Of-course you're my best buddy."

"You call telling the world from the television set that she has a crush on you... secretive?" scoffed Shino. "What damage have you recieved to your head these past months?"

Everyone stared at Shino. Did he just say more than 10 words? What has the world come to!

Shino was getting uncomfortable. "What?" he asked.

Neji shook his head, and resumed the conversation. "I wonder who's her 5 best friends?"

"I don't want to know," muttered Shikamaru.

"Right you don't," smirked Naruto. "I'm betting a bowl of ramen that you're actually uber-excited to find out you aren't over-shadowed by Sasuke, Neji and I!"

"Sasuke and Neji I understand, but since when have you gotten a fanclub?" asked Shikamaru.

Naruto thought hard. "Umm... since I met Konohamaru, Moegi and Udon?" he said, a hopeful grin on his face.

"Baka," said Sasuke, bonking Naruto upside his head. "How are Konohamaru and Udon fangirls? Geez... you get stupider and stupider every passing day, Naruto."

"Excuse me, Sasuke-teme!"
"You're excused."
"...! That's not what I meant!"
"It came out that way. You're excused anyway."
"You-!"

"Oh please, just shut the hell up!" fired Neji. He turned to Lee. "You've been awfully silent, Lee. What's your opinion on this?"

Lee did not reply. His shoulders were slumped and he was facing the television.

"Lee?"

Lee turned with a grin that was a tad too big for his face."I congratulate you, Shikamaru! You have finally gotten some appeal!"

Shikamaru blinked. "That was rather... random, Lee."

"But I truly congratulate you!" Lee said happily. "I have always thought you were like me... with no chance whatsoever of a relationship! But you have proven yourself otherwise! I am so happy for you Shikamaru!"

Shikamaru's eye was twitching. "Pardon me? No chance whatsoever? What on earth are you talking about, Lee?"

Kiba grinned. "Oi, Shikamaru... admit it. We know you're whipped for Ino!"

Akamaru barked in agreement.

Shikamaru glared at Kiba. "Again... pardon me?"

Kiba's grin widened. "It's so obvious! You blush everytime we talk about her!"

Shikamaru was ready to punch Kiba's (and Lee's) face in. "Me? Blush? When? And of all people -the blonde banshee? What do you think I am, crazy?"

Kiba nodded.

"That's it!"

Eye twitching, Shikamaru leapt up and drew back his fist. Before he could make contact to Kiba's face with his knuckles, Chouji reached up and grabbed his wrist.

"Shikamaru! Your blood pressure!" he squeaked.

Shikamaru paused for a moment, then huffily sat down.

Beside him, Chouji was nervously gobbling down chips. Shikamaru's eyes narrowed. Nervous Chouji? Not a good sign... for Chouji though, of-course.

"Say, Chouji," started Shikamaru, his voice dripping with venom. "Did you happen to leak something out? Or was this just a crazy suspicion of yours?"

Chouji gulped. Shikamaru puts two and two together too well. Turning with a patronizing smile on his face, Chouji chuckled nervously at Shikamaru.

"O-of-course not..." he choked.

"Akimichi Chouji! I trusted you!"

"Honestly, Shikamaru! I never told them anything about you and Ino! I've only told them about Temari and how she really likes you! They made all the rest up! I have absolutely no idea how they came up with the fact that you liked Ino! Don't you think so, Shikamaru?"

And for the second time in under 5 minutes, Shikamaru's fist was ready to beat the shit out of the others.

回到伊諾, 啊櫻, 天天和雛田去... (Returning to Ino, Sakura, Tenten and Hinata...)
"Alright, everyone!" said Shihan cheerfully. "Let's go to your new home as of today!"

Ino, Sakura, Tenten and Hinata exchanged glances as they followed Shihan dragging their luggage. House of Top Model, meet its new inhabitants!

When it was time to choose the rooms,the four kunoichi stuck together and chose the Seasons Room. (I'm making up random themes) It represented them best anyway.The room had four corners. The Sping, Summer, Autumn and Winter corners.

Sakura's Spring Corner had a lush jade green colour on the wall, that faded into the Ino's Summer Corner's bright, bubbly orange, (1) that changed into Tenten's golden hazel Autumn Corner, which eventually lightened into Hinata's light (almost white) blue Winter Corner.

The bedding andother furniture like the bedside table and lamps matched the wall's colours, and the four-sectioned carpet did too. The door was positioned between the Summer and Autumn corners, and had a couple stairs leading down from it.

When they had finished packing, they each plopped down on their beds and sighed.

"Well," said Tenten.

"We're here," remarked Hinata, smiling.

"We're competing in Top Model," continued Ino.

"We'll be staying here," giggled Sakura.

They simutaneously sat up, and grinned.

"AND WE'RE GONNA WIN!" they screamed in unison.

Had you been stationed outside their room door, the giggles that erupted after that would prove themselves to be endless.

(1) For people that are wondering why I didn't use yellow as the summer colour... sorry. Not yellow... I have something against the look of the word yellow... no offense to anyone, but it bothers me... O.O

How was that? Yes, I know... pretty short! Oh well! Oh, BTW, I'm grounded so I'm using the computer secretly... the updates aren't going to be frequent. (hush hush)
