Miyuki: You guys know the deal by now, right? I apologize for not hurrying the hell up, Hanabi threatens me, Neji glares at me, Naruto gets pretty much nothing to say, and Hinata calms us all down.
Hanabi: Yeah, that's pretty much it.
Naruto: So… now what?
Miyuki: pretty much contradict everything I just said, I guess. So, Neji, stop glaring at me. And, Hanabi, shut your trap.
Hanabi: … *literally cannot speak due to my magical powers*
Neji: *fake smiles*Don't speak of the Hyuga in such a discourteous tone.
Naruto: What's discourteous?
Hinata: It means rude, Naruto-kun.
Miyuki: Well… ONWARDS!
By 12:00 mid-day, the floor was cleaned and vacuumed. And mopped, and disinfected. Man, that floor really needed all that mopping, vacuuming, and disinfecting. It probably needed a lot more than what it got. Hinata was doing the very dirty, moldy, rusty, dishes; and Naruto cleaned his bathroom. I have to say, this is one of the least romantic dates I have ever seen, not that I've seen many aside from those ones in the shoujo manga I sometimes read. (Yeah, I read shoujo manga sometimes. Don't like it, kiss my rump!) Anyways, Neji and I were huddled in the safety of one of Narutos' surprisingly not-dead plants, so Hinata wouldn't stick me us in the bag with the other 50 cockroaches that had been caught. With my heightened cockroach senses, I could tell that they were scared and confused and cramped. Naruto popped his head around the corner of the bathroom and shouted "I'm done!" before coming out carrying a bucket with cleaning supplies. "How you doing, Hinata-chan?"
"Ah, almost done." She smiled at him. She successfully stacked a plate in the cleaned and shining cupboard. I can't believe she was actually doing this. She's so sweet and innocent that my cockroach antennae are twitching in annoyance. "Just a few more plates!" She said as she scrubbed at a particularly hard spot of grime… dirt… food… on one of the porcelain dishes. Naruto smiled in his strangely heartwarming way.
"How about we do them together?" She blushed, but agreed. All was going well. Friendly, and slightly flirty on Naruto's part, conversations happily floated around the now clean apartment.
"I can't believe we got that all cleaned!" Naruto said as he dried a plate. "Of course, it was mostly because of you, Hinata." he said with a smile.
"Oh, n-not really." Hinata blushed and looked into the murky water.
"Yes it was!" He beamed at her, absolutely glowing. "I would have never been able to do all this alone! And never having cleaned before, that must've been record speed."
"I-it was nothing really." She very nearly whispered, a deeper blush spreading over her face.
"It was more than nothing, it was amazing! Everything about you is amazing." He looked directly at her in a very out of character way. Kind of love-stricken admiration, but in very serious way. And suddenly, he didn't seem so stupid and unworthy of Hinata. Meanwhile, Hinata was blushing so red that I wonder exactly how much blood she has in her face right now, because it must be a whole shit-load to resemble a tomato so much.
"U-um… er… th- thank you." she stuttered as she passed him a plate. He took the plate and obligingly put it in his cupboard, then did something even I didn't expect. He kissed her cheek. Poor Hinata. She looked like she was going to faint. D'aaawww! I looked over at Neji; he looked about as threatening as a cockroach can. This just gets better and better. Hallelujah. And the only way this could be better is if they started dancing. Then I noticed the radio that they had uncovered while cleaning. That gave me a good idea… I fluttered over and try to figure out how to turn it on in cockroach form. Our two love birds, or as I've codenamed them, NaruHina are finishing up the dishes which came out surprisingly clean, considering their previous state.
The radio was already on. Apparently volume was just turned down, which is easy for a bug to fix. Soon, Rihanna's 'Please don't stop the music' was echoing through the room. Hinata loves this song, even though she pretends not to. Ah, her luck.
"U-um, did that radio just turn itself on?" Hinata asked, slightly confused.
"I guess so.…" Naruto also looked slightly skeptical, but let it slide with a shrug. "Wanna dance?" he smiled at her.
"I-" but before she could answer, Naruto whirled her around then dipped her. Like I said, this just gets better and better. Hinata squeaked in surprise. Soon they in the middle of the newly cleaned floor, dancing like they should be on some kind of dance show. Seriously, like perfect unison. Who knew that they could dance so well? Hell, where did they even learn to dance? Because far as I know, ninjas don't dance. Sooner than I would've liked, the song stopped and NaruHina were finished dancing. Well, looks like I'm going to have to fix things again. But then the stereo came alive again, sending 'Pon De Replay' through the speakers. Once again, the pair broke out and dance. They were doing combination of hiphop dance and Latin dance. I've never seen that combination of dance before, but looked damned good. Every so often, Hinata would giggle and in Naruto would chuckle back. It's too bad I don't have my video recorder with me, even if I couldn't use it anyways. The song started to come to an end. Naruto ended the dance as he'd started it, with a twirl and a dip. Hinata grabbed onto his neck so that she wouldn't fall over, and then blushed as she realized what she had done. Narutos' slowly leaned towards her, his cheeks slightly colouring in turn.
"Come on, come on!" I willed them angrily, "KISS!"
"I-I…" Hinata stuttered. And then she passed out. Really? Fucking really? Is this some kind of cruel joke?
"Hi-Hinata-chan!" Narutos' eyes went wide, alarmed and confused at why she had fainted. "What do I do? What do I do?" he panicked, and honestly, it was quite amusing to watch. He picked her up and laid her on his bed like she was sleeping beauty. "Hinata? Hinata, wake up!" he softly commanded her, obviously concerned. I'm also pretty worried about her, so I flew over and hid close to her head. "Man, what did I do wrong?" he wondered out loud. "Hinata? Are you okay?" Suddenly, her nearly white eyes flickered open. She moved like lightning, darting her hands out and grabbing me. Apparently, I wasn't as hidden as I thought I was. I shouldn't have judged how concealed I was based on the unobservant idots' verdicts.
"We missed one." she smiled. Naruto smiled back at her. Shit! I can't let them catch me! Or else… I'll be found out… or worse… be stuck with Shino! Working real hard, I managed to wriggle out of her death grip. "Oh!" she squeaked as I bolted for the safety of Naruto's plant.
"Neji wake up!" I equivalent of yelled at Neji, who had apparently fallen asleep. Hinata was coming for us, I had no choice but to hide behind a thick green stalk of foliage and cower. To no avail. Hinata the Giant simply moved the plant leaves aside and picked both me and the slowly stirring Neji up.
"What…?" Neji asked, completely puzzled.
"There. Now you can be with you friends." Hinata smiled gently as she put us in the cockroach container. Pfft. I'll be friends with those cockroaches when Hell freezes over. But that didn't matter to either Hinata or Naruto as they brought us roaches over to Shino's house. Well, here are our choices:
1 transform right now and risk ruining everything
2 transform at Shino's house then make a break for it
3 try to escape this container, and transform after we're out
Ehh… since #3 is futile, and #1 has to great of a risk… DAMMIT!
"Looks like we're going to Shino's." I angrily told Neji.
Miyuki: You know what? I just realized how much Hanabi and Suzumia Haruhi act alike, with their bluntness, crazy plans, and simply not caring for the opinions of their teammates.
Naruto: …Yeah, now that I think about it, you're right.
Neji: I already knew that.
Hinata: Now that you mention it, they are eerily similar.
Hanabi: Are you saying my personality is a second rate of someone else's?
Miyuki: If it was, it wasn't intended since I only discovered that animanga like yesterday. Wait… HOW DO YOU GUYS EVEN KNOW ABOUT SUZUMIA HARUHI?
