Chapter Thriteen
Today's the day. Today's the day. That sentence kept playing over and over in my head. I was at Temari's since we had the day off because Lady Tsunade had a surprise meeting with Kumogakure. I wonder why...Anyway, it couldn't have landed on a better day! Temari bought all the decorations yesterday with Gaara and Kankuro, so I was over to help out with decorating. Her theme was flowers and water. A very easy theme to work with. I was looking at the list of flowers she bought trying to find the lotus.
"Tem', did you get the lotus flowers," I asked. "Yup! They're the last one on the list!" She replied cheerily. "Good!" I said. I ran into the kitchen and opened the drawer with the lable that read 'Bowls & Plates'. Thank God she had a clear bowl, which was quite large to my delight. I filled it up with water and dragged it to the living room coffee table. "Why'd you fill the bowl up?" Temari asked. "Watch!" I replied.
I grabbed the bag that had the number 10 printed on it and pulled out lotus flowers and placed them in the bowl. "Oh! I get it!" Temari proclaimed. She was up festooning balloons on the ceiling. I continued placing the flowers in the bowl. I'm glad Temari didn't buy to many. I only needed one bowl and the flowers weren't crouded. Next were the lilacs and roses. "Temari? What should I do with these?" I asked. She cocked her head toward me from her ladder. "Pass them to me," She stated. I handed them to her.
"Good thing we got the roses de-thorned!" She chuckled as she tied the roses and lilacs with the balloons. It looked pretty because she only did it in every corner. I put the gilly flowers in a vase with the daisies and freesias. The room was really coming together. "Temari, can you handle the decorations? I need to start on the food," I said. "Yeah, I'm fine! The cookbooks are in the top left shelf" She called out.
I grabbed the extremely heavy cookbooks and looked for a reciepe in the desserts section. I looked at the clock, it was five forty-five. In fifteen minutes they'd be here. Shit. I looked at how long it took to make them. Half an hour damnit! I would have to go for the good old fashion popcorn, chips and pop. Not my ideal idea but it would have to do.
I haven't even gotten into my dress yet! I quickly filled as many bowls as possilbe and brought out the pop from the fridge and put it on the snack table. Temari had just finished decorating and she was propped up on the couch. I unpacked my bag and grabbed my dress and ran to the bathroom.
Quickly slipping on my dress I heard the doorbell ring. Fuck. I fiddled with the complicated lacings in the back of the dress finallyfixing them. I kept my hair in my usual messy bun since I couldn't do anything different with my hair due to extreme lack of time. Temari was smart for putting on her dress before decorating. I burst out of the bathroom to see the find the first guests were Ino, Sakura and Karin. Great, the bimbos. They were dressed like sluts.
Ino was the sluttiest. She had a dress cut unbearably short, it was way shorter than TenTen's. The dress also had a slit showing off her cleavage. Her dress was screaming 'RAPE ME!'. Sakura's wasn't so bad. I was a bit longer and not so much cleavage. Karin just wore a short dress with barely any 'stuff' showing. I bet they're wearing it to show off to that duck butt haired freak. He's so rude! How could they possibly like him!
"Oh, hi," Ino snorted. "Hi," I muttered. She was staring at my dress. Then she whispered something to Karin and Sakura.
"Look at what she's wearing! She's gotta be Amish!"
She snickered to them. I pretended I didn't hear. Then the doorbell rang again. I sped walked over to the door and opened it. It was the Uzumaki kid, bowl cut man, duck butt and dog boy at the door. I quickly ushered them in. When is hegoing to get here! The fangirls of duck butt were trying to snuggle up and kiss him. I felt sorry for the guy. He didn't really deserve it.
I grabbed my CD's from my bag. Then Ino and her possi came and looked at what I had. I had about fifty CD's in my bag. I have 200 altogether but I kept the rest at home or else my bag would weigh a million pounds. She picked up my favourite Metallica CD album, Master of Puppets. "Ewww, Metallica! Don't you have any GOOD music like Rhiana or Kanye West?" She asked in a snobby tone. "This is good music," I snapped. "Let's see what elseyou have," She said dropping the CD case. I dove to save it from it's doom. She picked up another CD case. "Disturbed? Gross!" She squealed. "You have no taste!" Karin scoffed. "I'm vice hostess so we'll listen to whatever I play!" I growled.
"Fine!" They snapped all at the same time. I put in my Metallica CD that I saved from doom of smashing on the floor and cranked the volume. "Nice choice!" Naruto smiled.
"Finally, not chick music," Sasuke sighed. As soon as he said that the bimbos all said how great it was. What posers! I wanted to punch them out! Lee a.k.a bowl cut man didn't like it saying it had no youth. Then Gaara came down. "Who put in Metallica?" He asked. I raised my hand. He looked shocked. "Someone's got taste!" He said smirking. "Wanna head bang?" I asked. "Sure!" He yelled over the extremely loud guitar solo.
I having so much fun. Just letting the beat flow through. Ino and her clique were staring at us but I didn't care. Temari, Gaara, Naruto and I started a mini mosh pit. Trust me it's hard to mosh in a dress. Very hard. I do NOT recommend it.
The door bell rang and I raced to get the door, almost tripping on my dress. It was himand his friends were behind him. At least they looked like his friends. He smirked. "Metallica, eh?" He chuckled as he walked in. Seven other guys walked behind him. "Mosh pit! FUCK YEAH!" The platnium blonde yelled. Pein put his hand on my shoulder and said," Don't mind Hidan, he swears without realizing it," I nodded. I decided to make a sign on the door that read, 'Walk in! Doors unlocked!", so I wouldn't have to get it everytime. I was having a crazy time moshing. It's not really fun moshing with only three other people, in fact with three people it's virtually impossible to mosh with three other people, but now we had way more people! Even the bimbos and duck butt and bowl cut was trying it out. See how metal brings people together!
More and more people were walking through the door. Although I was having fun, I was getting worried because TenTen wasn't here yet. I decided that if she didn't show up in ten minutes I was going to call her. But then Ino had to spoil all the fun. What she said hit us all like an atom bomb.
"Let's play Seven Minutes in Heaven!" She squealed. Everything went death quite. The stereo was on stop. The only thing I could hear was everyone's breathing and someone walking through the door. I turned my head to see TenTen walking in. "What's going on guys!" She asked loudly breaking the eerie silence. "We're going to play Seven Minutes in Heaven!" Ino squealed. Temari whispered,"I toldyou she wrecks it!" The guys put in their names in Kankuro's hat. Pein looked pist. "Why do we have to play such childish games!" He muttered under his breath. Ino, Sakura and Karin were eyeing Sasuke and Itachi. I feel sorry for them.
"Okay, who goes first?" Sakura asked. "Konan!" Ino and Karin cackled. "Um, I really don't feel like..." I stopped in mid-sentence as they gave me if-you-don't-play-we'll-kill-your-social-status glare. "Never mind," I muttered. I closed my eyes and reached in. I could feel my heart leaping out of my chest. My veins began pumping ith fear. Many people have walked this road and can end up in a bad place. I pulled out a piece of paper.
I looked at in shock. The name Pein was written in grafitti on it. "Who is it?" Temari asked and then leaned over my shoulder and gaped. I almost fainted. "Who is it?" Pein asked impatiently. "I-it's you," I stuttered. "What?" He asked in disbelief. "It's you, Pein," I choked out. I felt like I was going to die.
