Ch. 6

What really happened

Temari and all the rest of the kunochis were sitting in her living room. Shikamaru had to cover another class and Gaara and Kankuro were training. They were sitting around eating cookies and drinking hot chocolate.

"So what happened here while Shikamaru and I were gone?" Temari looked at the other girls who were sitting around the room.

"Well I finally found Mr. Right," said Ino, "Then Sasuke came back and they got into a fight."

"Choji and Sasuke got into a fight?" (Remember ch.3?)

"Yeah, and Choji started it. Then I came and told him that I didn't care that Sasuke was back, at least not in the way he thought. I told Sasuke that Sakura had heard he was back and had gone looking for him at the Uchiha compound."

"Then Lee found me there," said Sakura, "He started trying to flirt with me and I kept looking for Sasuke. Lee got upset that I did not want to go somewhere with his 'youthful' self. He then tried to kiss me.Sasuke came around the corner at that time and he punched Lee. He and Lee got into a fight and Sasuke had to resort to using mangenku sharingun. He only did it because Lee was going to start opening the gates."

"I didn't know that. Tsunade had called Neji and I to his hospital room where he was playing with a rattle and Gai was trying to get some sense out of him. She told him that Lee was never going to be the same and Sasuke came in and told Tsunade that he hadn't even filled the requirement to use mangenku sharingun and he only used it to protect Sakura," Ten-Ten said apparently shocked.

"Well that isn't as strange as what happened to me," said Hinata.

"What happened to you?" questioned Temari.

"I was nearly raped…. By Kiba."

Temari spit out her hot chocolate, "Kiba nearly raped you?!?!?! What the Hell?!?!"

"Kiba cornered me in a dark alley, and then he tried to…you know. Then Naruto saw him and told him to back off. He and Kiba got into a fight and Naruto's eyes went red. He punched Kiba in the stomach hard and he hit Neji. Neji got up and came into the alley to find Naruto exhausted from using so much chakra and I was trying to make sure he was alright.

"Then Naruto fainted. Neji then carried him piggyback style and we took him to the hospital. Tsunade checked me over too but there was nothing serious. The next day Neji convinced my dad to hire Naruto as my body guard. He even put half of his money into paying Naruto."

"Oh my gosh……that's why Naruto came with you when you checked for Tsunade. You know when I was throwing up? Where is he now?"

"Outside. Scouting. There was not enough evidence to convict Kiba."

The other girls looked as shocked as Temari. Hinata had not told them why Naruto was now following her everywhere. Now it was distressing. "Would it make you feel better if we beat him up?" asked Ten-Ten.

"No. He was my team mate after all. Besides Shino's been keeping an bug on him." (No pun intended.)

The girls look at each other. It was plain that Hinata needed some help. She was more down than she ever was. They all felt bad that they had not realized. Then Temari got an idea. "Food therapy." Everyone gave Temari a look. "Ino, Ten-Ten come help me." They followed her into the kitchen, and came back with ice cream, bowls, spoons and toppings.

Soon all the girls were eating ice cream sundaes and talking about happier subjects.

"So Temari, how far along are you?"

"About 2 months."

"Want me to do another check? Just to make sure it's healthy?"

"That would be wonderful Hinata." Hinata activated her Barakugun and examined Temari.

"Temari you're extremely lucky. Do twins run in your family?"

"What?!?!"

"You are caring twins."
