Chapter 4: Suspending Part 1

Hinata decided now was a good time to run. So, she turned and ran. Naruto on her heels.

"THROW IT ALREADY!!" Shikamaru cried from the tree.

Ten-Ten looked around.

"I can't!!" Naruto screamed.

Everyone looked at the scene before them in disbelief.

Hinata wasn't there anymore! She was behind Naruto now.

"What the hell?" The boys jumped out of the tree.

"That...that's impossible," Shikamaru looked at Naruto in complete and utter confusion.

"Here," A voice said behind him. Naruto realized he had dropped the balloon on the ground, but now, it wasn't there. It was on his head, dripping paint.

"Are you on the track team?" Shikamaru asked Hinata.

"I was. Not anymore," Hinata looked at him suspisiously.

"Hm," Shikamaru turned on his heels, acting as though nothing had happened. And he was pretty good at acting.

The other three boys followed.

"Hinata..." Ino walked up to her sister.

"Great job!" Sakura hugged Hinata.

"Now we ALL have to go home and shower!" Hinata giggled.

----Later that afternoon----

"Ten-Ten Hyuga. To the office please. Ten-Ten Hyuga. To the office," The intercom scratched.

Ten-Ten stared at the intercom before numbly getting up and walking to the office.

The boys secretly exchanged mischievous smirks.

---Office---

"What?!" Ten-Ten looked horrified. This can't be happening to me! It just can't!!!

"Such a threat is not acceptable here. We take things like that very seriously for the saftey of the students. This is the obvious punishment. You're suspended for a week, the principal exclaimed kindly, if not happily.

"But I've never threatened inside of school! Nonetheless get suspended!!" Ten-Ten yelled.

"I'm sorry," The principal handed Ten-Ten the already filled out papers for her suspension.

Ten-Ten staggered out of the principal's office. Only to come face-to-face with pale, lavender eyes and a famous Uchiha smirk she'd come to hate.

"What happened?" Neji asked innocently.

"Oh, some bastard told the principal I threatened somebody," Ten-Ten eyed Neji.

"We're not allowed to threaten here. You do know what the reason for that is, don't you?" Neji frowned.

"Saftey issues," Ten-Ten turned her head.

"Because somebody shot and killed several students. It was a school massacre," Neji whispered as he walked past her.

Ten-Ten froze. A school massecre?

"Ten-Ten? What did they want?" Hinata asked.

Ten-Ten mentally shook her head before answering. "Somebody said I threatened someone else and now I'm suspended for a week."

"You've never been suspended before!" Sakura was shocked.

"I'm almost postitive it was Neji. Take him down. Get him suspended!" Ten-Ten clutched the papers as she stormed off to her locker.

----Next day, lunch----

"Go Hinata!" Ino hissed as she shoved Hinata into the lunchroom.

Hinata walked up to Neji. "N-Neji?"

"What?" He asked irritably, turning around to face her. Honestly, the fact that Hinata had the same puplilless, lavender eyes as he did creeped him out. But he covered it up by being rude.

"Sakura wants to see you outside," Hinata said quickly.

Neji sighed and got up, heading for the door. Hinata walked at a hurried pace behind him. The other boys exchanged glances before following the two.

----Outside----

"What do you want?" Neji asked the pink-haired girl who had her back to him, seeminly talking to Ino.

"Huh? I didn't send for you," Sakura turned around, giving Neji an odd look.

"Hinata said you wanted me," Neji crossed his arms, clearly not convinced.

"That sounded dirty," Sakura smirked.

"You have a dirty mind then," Neji frowned.

"I didn't want you here...but since you are..." Mischief glinted in her eyes, giving Neji an uneasy feeling. "You like Ten-Ten, don't you?!"

"What?! I don't like her - at all!!" Neji looked taken aback.

"You're bad at lying. You so like her!" Sakura smiled.

"I don't like anyone! I hate the world!!!" Neji screamed, throwing one fist into the air, slowly advancing toward her.

Sasuke, Shikamaru and Naruto suddenly got a bad feeling. Their suspisions were confirmed when Sakura threw herself on the ground, screaming at the top of her lungs.

"What the-" Neji faltered, his fist dropping. Sasuke, Shikamaru and Naruto ran over.

DAMMIT!! Sakura thought in dismay. Still, she kept up the act. She curled into the fetal position, her hands covering her face, pretending to cry. But the thing that really outraged Neji, was that she had actual tears streaming down her face.

Not thinking twice, Neji threw his fist into the air.

Perfect. Hinata flew out of her hiding spot silently and got a teacher.

Oh God! Is he really gonna hit me?! Even though she was scared to death, Sakura steadily kept up the act.

Hinata came running out with a teacher.

"What's going on here?!" The teacher exclaimed. Famous words. Neji was dead.

Hinata secretly hid again. Sasuke saw her out of the corner of his eye, but kept quiet. He take care of her later...or rather, Naruto would.

"Neji got mad at Sakura for no reason and hit her!" Ino looked at the teacher, looking really worried with tears streaking her face.

Neji realized just how bad it looked. And what was worse, he just realized what the girls had been up to.

I've been set-up!! Neji thought in disbelief.

Neji already knew he was going to get suspended. No point in letting a good punch go to waste...

To be continued...

Neji might be a bit OOC in this chapter...not intentional, but hey. It worked. To think he might get that much more pissed off because Sakura was fake-crying. Neji needs angermanagement.

Well, thanks to my reviewers!! Here are the ones for this chapter:

black and beautiful: So I've been told... -.-'

Chimiri: What's with all the updates? I'm going as fast as I can...T-T Thanks for liking it though!

puretrickster: ...Glad it's funny? It's supposed to be a comedy high school fic. If it doesn't say that, I should change it...

mizukaikage: None taken. If you're still reading the story, I did that to make this one different.

xroyal.momonessx: Right! These girls don't go down without a fight. Then again, these boys are tricky. Stalemates till the end!

I'm working on it...

Long-Live-The-Jessenator: Yay! I win!! Thank-you for finally realizing it. Lol. Well, okay.

AKITO. At The Disco: But that's what showers are for!!! lol. Okay...I'm just a little off today. I wrote out the chapter last night, that's why it doesn't sound very funny. But I did edit it. Sorry if it sounds odd. I was a bit off last night too...that explains the 'Neji likes Ten-Ten' thing...-.-'

niwichan2468: It is an odd hairstyle. I think it looks good on her for now, but I do agree, long hair would work for her too. I think it would be pretty on her. Oh why didn't I think about that in the first chapter. I'm too lazy to delete, fix and repost. So, we'll both have to suffer until I find a way to sneak her hair into being long...

LoveKibaAndShinoForever: So far...That is the key. Wait for all the cliches. Then it'll be a good story... snickers evilly

Sakura-hime9: I like to think I do rock...but it sounds better when somebody tells me I do. (jk) Thanks! Yep. The girls got 'em good...and there's more later.

And to those of you who reviewed the second chapter:

Dolphinbreeze: Oh why do you insist on making deciding so hard! (jk) I just decided what the last name was...T-T Thanks...

fantasycrazyperson409: Now why didn't I think of that? And why can't you people just decide on one last name? But you have to ban together and torture me. (jk) Well, thanks for the review anyway...

CherryBlossom016: ...I have nothing more to say anymore...Thanks for reviewin'.

XxSuicidal-CupcakexX: (like an answering machine) I have gone braindead. Please review again later and I'll try to answer you. Have a nice day. beep (or GO!)

You guys rock! This is just part one...Ah man. I have an awesome idea but I have to wait awhile to use it. Just a few more chapters...

Please review!!!
