--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sasuke and Sakura

The two had been sitting in the cave for about an hour now and Sakura started to get a little loopy from the cold.

"Sasu-kun!"

"..."

"Sasu-kun!!"

"What?"

"I've got somethin' important to tell you!!"

"Ok...?"

'Ooh, maybe she's confessing her feelings for you wink, wink' Inner Sasuke teased.

Shut up'

'No need to be touchy!'

'Fine, fine.'

"C'mere!" Sakura continued giggling. Sasuke inched closer.

"Closer!" She urged. Sasuke walked to her side of the small cave, sat next to her and sighed

"What is it?" He asked. Sakura leaned on him playfully and whispered through suppressed giggles...

"Hi!" Then, she burst out into hysterics, clutching her sides and all. Sasuke twitched violently. Sakura looked at him again, "Bye!" She exclaimed childishly while waving like an idiot. Sasuke twitched even more violently than before, sending Sakura into another fit of giggles. Sasuke 'hn'd and walked over to his side of the cave, steam billowing out of his ears. Sakura was still laughing, but stopped when she heard a sudden noise outside. "Sasuke," she said, getting serious, "did you hear that?" Sasuke nodded and appeared in front of Sakura, protectively pushing her behind him. The heavy silence hung in the air. The noice sounded again. Then...

"HI SAKURA-CHAN!!!!!"

"Lee?!?" Sakura yelled stepping from behind a now relaxed, but annoyed Sasuke.

"Yup! That's me! The handsom devil of the Hidden Leaf Village!!" He said striking that lame pose.

Sasuke sweatdropped, "Like hell you are..." he muttered.

"I heard that Uchiha Sasuke!" Lee said, pointing an accusing finger at Sasuke,"This would be a perfect time to have a man-to-man contest to see who should really have Sakura-chan's love!!!"

"No, Bushy. We need to find the others first." Sasuke retaliated.

Lee pouted childishly, "Fine" he said.

"Sasuke-kun, I'm cold, I'm gonna go look for firewood kay?"

Sasuke nodded, " I'll see what's edible around here."

"I'm going with Sakura-chan!" Lee blurted out.

Sakura sighed, "Fine..."

Later...

With Sasuke...

Sasuke had just finished scouting the area for food and found... 3 cups of ramen...

'Naruto must've dropped them. He may be near by. Oh no...' Sasuke soon arrived at the cave entrance, but stopped short. He saw Sakura talking to Lee. They were sitting kind of close together and Lee was blushing at whatever Sakura was saying.

'What the hell?'

'Well, you know what to do now...'

'What?'

'Ask her to go to the hot springs with you later.'

'WTF?!'

'You don't want that? You'll see her curves and-'

'Stop!!!'

'What?'

'Go away!'

'But-'

'Now!!!!!' You ended the conversation with your perverted inner self, and continued to stsare at the two in disbelief.

With Sakura and Lee...

"So, Lee, it's not that you're a bad person. It's just... you're not a bad person Lee. Eventually, the right girl will come along and give you her heart in spite of... why girls don't go out with you as often." Sakura said smiling gently. She turned to Lee, and... he was in anime tears.

"Thank you Sakura-chan! You are the bestest friend ever!! I'll always stay loyal to you!!"

"Er, thanks?" Just then, Sasuke walked in, looking steamed. He threw a ramen cup at Lee's head, and Lee fell over, a lump forming on his head. "Sasuke?" Sakura started,"Are you ok?" Sasuke didn't answer. She trotted over to him. "Sasuke-kun, you're red. Do you have a fever?" He ignored her and started shooting daggers at Lee. Sakura got the picture. "Are you... jealous?" Sasuke tensed. She laughed." There's nothing to be jealous of Sasu-kun!! There's no way me and Lee were... There's no way! I couls never do that to you! I mean-" Sasuke suddenly pulled Sakura into a loving embrace, taking in the intoxicating scent of her hair.

"You talk too much."

With Naruto and Hinata

"Naruto-kun, N-Naruto-kun. P-Please wake u-up." Hinata urged, shaking the swirly-eyed Naruto.

"Ehhhhhhhhhhhh, I like ramen..." Hinata sighed ant sat next to the hyper-active ninja.

"Naruto-kun, what do you think of me?" Hinata asked. She was not expecting an answer from the knocked-out blonde.

"You're great Hina-chan!!!!"

"Wh-wha?" Hinata turned to Naruto only to find that he wasn't knocked out anymore!

"I said, 'You're great Hina-chan!!!! And you didn't hesitate to ask! You've improved!!" Naruto complimented smiling broadly. He looked at Hinata. She had passed out. "Eh?! Hina-chan! Are you ok?!" He exclaimed, shaking her a bit. "Oh no!! I must perfrom CPR!!!" then, he muttered, "At least I learned something from that Pervy Sage." He started to perform CPR when...

"Hina-chan! You're ok!!" Naruto cheered, "CPR really worked!"

"Huh?" Hinata questioned, touching her lips, she turned 150 shades of red. Then fainted.

"Huh?Hina-chan!! Are you ok?" Naruto looked at Hinata. "Oh no! Not again!!!" He exclaimed, looming over Hinata. She started to wake up.

"N-Naruto- kun?"

"Yay! Hina-chan!! You're ok!"

"Y-Yes. Um, th-thanks for w-worrying N-Naruto-kun."

"No prob Hina-chan! You're the best!!" He said, giving her a side hug.

"Thank you," She muttered.

With Ino and Shikamaru

"You lazy ass!! Get up and go find some firewood!! Now dammit!!" Ino yelled, kicking Shikamaru off the ground and out of their small shelter.

"Alright, alright. Jeez, women are so troublesome..."

"What was that?!?"

Shikamaru sighed tiredly, "Nothing."

"Good!! Now go!!" Ino screamed pointing out of the shelter, flames erupting around her.

Later

Shikamaru trudged back into the shelter with his hands in his pockets.

"Well?! Where's my firewood?!"

"Stop screamin'. It's right here." Shikamaru said dully, pulling a twig out of his pocket.

"What the HELL is that?!?! Is that all??!! You call that firewood?! What is wrong with you?! How far did you go to look for that?!"

"About 3 paces." Shikamaru replied. Steam came from Ino's ears, and her face started turning red with frustration. "You'd better not do that Ino. It adds to your ugliness."

Ino exploded. "WHAT?!!!? HOW DARE YOU SHIKAMARU!!! I'LL- I'll- WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!" Ino ran out of the shelter with anime tears.

Shikamaru stayed silent for a while. "Ugh, how troublesome..." He muttered, deciding to go after Ino. After about 10 minutes, he found her sitting near a cliff with anime tears flowing from her eyes. He sat by her. "Hey." She ignored him. "Hey." He started, annoyed. "Look, I didn't mean what I said. I was just kidding." He said dully, but with a hint of... care? Ino stopped with the anime tears, and she smiled.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWW!! IT'S OK SHIKA!!!!!!" She cheered, pulling him into a glomp/hug.

""Ack! Ok, stop before we-" The two fell off the cliff!

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! DAMN YOU SHIKAMARU NARA!!!!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With Neji and Tenten

"Hehehehehehehehehehe... it worked! I"m a genius!!" Tenten yelled, punching the air.

"What are you doing?" Neji questioned.

"Ehehehe... nothing..." Tenten answered innocently while sweatdroppong and putting away her mini-telescope.

"Why do you have a telescope?"

"B-because..." she started backing up because Neji was looming over her. 'Man! He's gotten...' "Sexier." She instantly covered her mouth. 'Why?! Oh why did I have to say that last part out loud?! Why me? Now he might suspect...'

"What did you say?" He asked, smirking that 'I'm-so-sexy-and-you-know-it' smirk.

"N-Nothing." Tenten managed to choke out. She was red all over.

He came closer and she could feel his was breath in her ear. "You're blushing." He whispered. Tenten turned about another 300 shades of red that she didn't even know existed. She heard him chuckle and walk towards the fire. She stumbled out of their shelter, pulled out a fan, and started fanning herself vigorously. 'Why am I so hot all of a sudden?It's like it's not winter, but summer, hot, sexy Neji- erm, I mean, hot, blazing summer' She sighed and went back in the shelter and suddenly, she felt cold again. So, she went to sit by the fire, but she was still shivering. Then, all of a sudden, she felt warm again. She looked down and saw that Neji's arms were around her. She blushed deeply.

"Better?"

All she could do was nod. He chuckled again.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Next Day...

Ok, by now everyone found each other. Now, they're one group again.

"You what?! How dare you hug my Sasuke billboard brow!!" Ino screamed at Sakura.

"Shut up Ino." Sakura said, shoving her out the way. Sasuke walked beside Sakura and gave her a sexy smirk while putting his arm around her shoulders. She blushed.

"Sakura, I-"

"Gaara!? What are you doing here?!?"
