Ok, So I didn't get the reviews I asked for in the last chapter, so I was considering not continuing the story. BUT since I already had the 3rd chapter typed up, I decided to post it.
Anyways REVIEW, REVIEW, REVIEW please! :)
I'm still getting used to posting up the chapters so sorry for any inconvinience!
Also I want to thank: Rose Tiger, KiraUzumaki, and Jeff Prower for reviewing! You guys rock!
"Miss Hyuuga, if you wish to do that in public I suggest you go into Master Jiraya's office, maybe then he'll get some inspiration for his books," a slightly amused voice said.
Hinata turned crimson as she got off Naruto and stood up.
"Ka-Kakashi-s-sensei, it's not like that! I-it was an accident!!" Hinata exclaimed, as her friends around her began to laugh silently.
"Next time, it will be a write up for PDA, do you understand Miss Hyuuga?" Kakashi gave her a stern look.
"BACK OFF KAKASHI-SENSEI," Naruto exclaimed, "It really was an accident, and besides instead of breaking the rules and reading those nasty books of yours, you should set the example of following the rules, so that maybe we will too!"
"Enough, Naruto. I expect to see you in class today. You and Hinata have been warned." Kakashi turned and walked out the cafeteria.
'Kids these days, can't keep their damn hormones to themselves. With all the action going on around here, Jiraya should have more than enough material for his new book! He has no excuse for it coming out so late!' Kakashi thought to himself angrily.
"I'm sorry Naruto, I just lost my balance, I'm so so sorry I embarrassed you in front of Kakashi-sensei like that!" Hinata looked at the ground as she apoligized.
'I'm sure Naruto won't want to go to the dance with me, now that i've humilated him in front of his teacher like that! I'm such a LOSER!! Ugh, I wish I could be at home, hiding under my blankets!!!'
As Hinata frowned at her thoughts, she didn't notice a pair of cerulean eyes staring at her intently watching her face expressions go from happy to sad.
"Hinata," Naruto closed the space between them and gave her a hug, "It's ok, don't worry about it! It was an accident, I know. I understand if you don't want to go with me to the dance though, I mean, after what Kakashi-sensei just did, I'm pretty sure you're not too happy with me right about now."
"Oh no, Naruto! It doesn't matter what Kakashi-sensei or anyone else does, I wouldn't want to go to the dance with anyone but you!"
Naruto smiled at what she had just said, and he felt his face getting hot.
"Thanks, Hinata. I feel exactly the same way!"
"Oh! How cute! Is our Naruto blushing?" Sakura asked, her eyebrow raised, grinning slyly.
"I never thought I'd live to see the day," Sasuke said as he approached the table, "Naruto has a crush!"
Hinata started smiling at the thought of Naruto liking her, but she knew he only liked her as a friend.
Before Naruto could respond to him, Ino cut in. She turned to Yumi, Sakura, and TenTen.
"Well now that Hinata's here, we can go now."
"Go? Go where?" Hinata asked raising her eyebrow.
"To the little girls room, we have to go over our plans for tonight and we can't do that in front of the guys, now can we?" Sakura replied to her.
"Can't we just text?" TenTen asked looking at Sakura and Ino.
"Well, you see...what had happened was..." Ino started.
"Gai-sensei caught us texting during P.E. and he took away both of our phones! He said we can't have them back until after we do 100 push ups each, after school! So there's no way we'd be able to know for sure what our plans are after school."
Yumi and TenTen glanced at each other and frowned at the blond and the pink haired girls. They didn't have any classes with their boyfriends, so lunch was the only time at school they actually got to spend with them during the day. They were not happy about having to leave them to finalize weekend plans in a restroom.
"Well next time you two know better! Let's go, we better make it quick though ok? I don't want to spend the rest of my lunch hour in a bathroom." TenTen told her friends.
"We'll be back in a little bit fellas", Yumi said as she looked over her shoulder, "Don't miss us too much 'kay?" She winked at Kiba.
Once the girls were in the bathroom, they looked under the stalls to check if anyone was there and would hear their plans. When they were sure no one was in the stalls, they looked at Hinata.
"Oh My Gosh! Hinata, YOU'RE GOING TO THE FINAL DANCE WITH NARUTO!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" Yumi squealed as she jumped up and down clapping her hands.
Sakura, TenTen, Ino, and Hinata started screaming and jumping up and down too.
"Hina, I'm so happy for you! You're wish finally came true!" TenTen told her once everyone had stopped screaming.
"We absolutely have to go with you and Yumi to go buy your dress, please Hina, please, please?" Ino said looking at Hinata with puppy eyes.
"Ino, you can't just invite yourself on Yumi's and Hinata's shopping trip, it's rude!" Sakura scolded her best friend.
"Don't worry about it Sakura, it's cool. You guys can come too, I mean that way we can all buy our dresses and give our opinions. What do you think Yumi?"
"Fine by me. The more, the merrier!" She said, smiling at her friends.
"Who say's that anymore?" TenTen said, chuckling.
"I do! I even say 'Alrightyyyyy Thennnn!' sometimes" she answered.
"Only you could say that and make it work, Yumi!" Sakura said smiling at them.
"And that's whyyyyyyy????" Yumi asked.
"WE LOVE YOU!!!" the rest of the girls answered.
"And I love you all too.", Yumi answered back calmly, "but back to business, yeah you girls can come too. Just meet up at my house as soon as you can after school TenTen, and after you two finish your push-ups." She told Ino and Sakura grinning.
"I call picking out accesories for Hinata!" Sakura yelled, calling dibs.
"Shoes!" TenTen shouted.
"DRESS!!!" Yumi and Ino yelled at the same time.
"Why don't you both help me choose, that way there won't be any favoritism?" Hinata shyly suggested.
"Sure." Ino answered.
"Fine by me. So ok, so here's the deal: shopping, restuarant, dancing, my place. Got it?" Yumi said looking at her friends.
"And we're keeping this a secret from the guys why?" Hinata asked them.
"Because, it's been such a long since it was just us girls hanging out. Since Yumi started going out with Kiba, and TenTen started going out with Yumi we haven't hung out just the five of us." Sakura explained to her indigo haired friend.
"Yeah, and besides we miss you guys, I'm always hanging out with Kiba now, and don't get me wrong, I love him! But it's nice to hang out with my friends too, not just my boyfriend." Yumi told her friends.
"Same goes with me and Neji." TenTen added.
"Ok, then after school at Yumi's?" Ino asked, looking around at her friends.
"Agreed!" They all said in unison.
"The girls are going out tonight, and so are we!" Kiba anounced as soon as the girls had walked out of the cafeteria.
"Where are they going?" Naruto asked while he tried to shake Shikamaru awake.
"I don't know, Yumi didn't tell me exactly. What about you Neji, did TenTen mention anything?" The brown haired boy turned to look at the Hyuuga.
"No, she just told me that she was going out with her friends, that's it."
"Yeah, that's what Yumi told me as well." Kiba replied, rubbing his chin.
"Wait, you said we're going out too. Going where?" Naruto asked.
"We're gunna follow the girls! So where ever the girls go, we go too. We just can't let them catch us!" Kiba answered his blond friend.
"That's not a good idea, Kiba. If they catch us, Yumi won't be too happy with you." Neji warned him.
"Yeah, if Ino catches me, I'll be dateless for the dance. I don't want to be a loser and go by myself like Naruto." Shikamaru said, lifting his head from the table.
"Well, just so you know Shikamaru, I'm not going alone. I asked Hinata a few minutes ago." Naruto said, smiling.
"And she said yes? Wow, Naruto. I admit, I didn't think you could find someone to go with you." Shikamaru told him, fishing around in his pocket for his wallet. He took out a ten and handed it to a smug-looking Sasuke.
"What's that for?" Naruto eyed his friend, suspiciously.
"Don't you think you're asking to many questions, Naruto?", Sasuke smirked as he spoke, "Just so you know, Shikamaru bet that you couldn't find anyone to go to the dance with, and I bet you would go with Hinata, I won that bet."
"Why did you bet I would go with Hinata?" Naruto asked, with a puzzled look on his face.
Neji let out a loud sigh, Kiba rolled his eyes, and Shikamaru smacked him on his head.
"You're really stupid sometimes, Naruto. You know that right? It's so obvious she likes you. Even Shikamaru could tell, and he spends more than half his lifetime sleeping." Sasuke said.
Neji, Kiba, and Shikamaru glared at Sasuke. How could he just tell Hinata's secret like that? She'd never done anything to him to deserve that!
"She likes me?" Naruto whispered.
"Listen Naruto, now that you know I'm warning you: you hurt her, and consider yourself dead. I understand if you don't like her, but you just asked her to the dance, don't ruin it for her." Neji told him in a serious tone.
"That goes double for me, and if we don't get to you first I'm sure the girls will, and trust me, they will show you NO MERCY." Kiba added.
'Hinata likes me?' Naruto thought to himself.
"Ok, so what's the plan Kiba?" Naruto asked excitedly.
"Why are you so interested in following the girls all of a sudden, Naruto?", Sasuke teased him, "Could it be that you want to make sure some other guy doesn't take Hinata away from you?"
"NO! It's just that Kiba's plan sounds fun, and besides it's not like we're doing anything later." Naruto told Sasuke a little too loudly.
"Naruto, keep it down! Unless you want the whole school to hear you." Shikamaru told the blond in a bored tone.
"So who's in?" Kiba asked looking around the table. He knew Naruto would join him, but he didn't know what to expect from Shikamaru, Sasuke, and Neji.
"I guess I am." Shikamaru answered.
"Me too", Neji said, "TenTen's been keeping something from me, and I want to find out what it is."
Kiba nodded at each of them, and turned to Sasuke.
"Sure, I'll go. But if the girls catch us, I'll tell them the truth: I was threatened to get hit by Naruto's car if I didn't go." Sasuke looked at his loudest friend, smirking.
"THAT'S NOT TRUE!!! YOU LIAR!! But if you want me to, I gladly will!" The blond yelled across the table.
"Naruto, shut up! Shikamaru already told you to lower your voice, if you don't, I'll make you." Neji said, giving Naruto a threatening glare.
"Kiba, what are we gunna do then?" Neji wanted to hear his plan. As long as it didn't involve something stupid, like dressing in all black and hiding in bushes, he was in.
"Well, the only thing Yumi did mention was she was going to go shopping for her dress right after school with Hinata, so I guess Naruto and I will start following them from Yumi's house. Sasuke and Shikamaru, you guys should wait around after school to see where Ino and Sakura go after their detention. Neji, you'll have to follow TenTen home after school, since she hasn't mentioned what she's gunna do meanwhile the rest of the girls are busy. We'll keep in touch through our phones, and we'll all meet up whenever the girls meet up, got it?" Kiba looked at each of his friends.
"Yeah!" Naruto said.
"Sure", Shikamaru said before muttering, "...how troublesome..."
Neji and Sasuke just nodded at the Inuzuka.
The girls walked into the cafeteria just as the guys finished up their plans.
"Hey babe! Did you miss me, like I told you not to?" Yumi said as soon as they were within hearing distance of the guys.
"Only a little bit." Kiba said, teasing her. He pulled out her chair, and tugged on her hand so she would sit down next to him.
"Oh! Kibakins! That's not nice." Yumi told him, while giving him her famous puppy dog pout.
They rest of the group laughed as they saw the two brunettes flirt with each other.
"You know Yumi, you already go out with him, what are you trying to get Kiba to ask you? To marry you?" Sakura said, with a sly grin on her face.
She knew it was her friend's dream to marry her boyfriend, but she had never told him that. All the girls agreed that Kiba asking Yumi to marry him would make her truly happy, since she had had a tough childhood. Yumi's mother walked out on her when she was only three months old. She couldn't handle a baby crying, changing diapers, and hardly having time to herself so she walked out on Mr. Takahashi and an infant Yumi. She grew up with nannies whenever her father was busy running his different clubs. She had never really had a mom, just like Sakura had never really had a dad. He walked out on her mother before she was even born, and neither of them had memories of their missing parent. Yumi understood the pain Sakura went through, not knowing who your parent is, just knowing they left you. That's why Yumi had become one of Sakura's best friends.
"No! It's just I have to keep him in love with me, in case some chick tries to take him away from me!" Yumi said with a slight blush on her face.
"As if anyone would dare try to take me away from you! After what happened last year, no one messes with you, hun. And besides there's no way anyone could EVER take me away from you. If anyone should be worried, it should be me! Don't think I don't hear what guys around school say while we walk to class. And you know what? One day, I will marry you. We just need to wait to graduate next year, and I promise, we'll get married whatever day you want!" Kiba watched as his girlfriend's expressions changed from happy, to worried, to confused, to sly.
"So Kibakins, are you asking me to marry you? 'Cause if you are then, where's the ring? And how come you're not down on your knee, like Naruto was earlier?" Yumi joked, grinning as she saw her friends trying to hold back their laughter.
"Not officially, but yeah I am! Why? Do you not want to? 'Cause I pretty sure I could get a few takers on that offer." Kiba looked at Yumi, and watched as her face went from looking amused to looking around in horror at girls that would jump at the chance to get with Kiba.
"Of course I want to!!!" Yumi quickly answered, still looking around at the cafeteria, trying to figure out which girl Kiba would ask to date him.
"Relax, babe. I was only kidding. Didn't you hear what I said? There's no other girl for me, but you." Kiba said trying to calm the honey-colored haired girl.
The rest of the group burst out laughing at their friend who suddenly seemed paranoid.
"Hey, you know what I just thought of? We don't even know what the theme of the dance is yet!" Ino announced, looking over at her girl friends.
"You know what? You're right, Ino! I hope they announce it soon! We can't go shopping, if we don't know what kind of dress to buy!" Sakura exclaimed.
Naruto watched all the girls start trying to guess what the theme for the final dance would be. It was only a dance, how could they get so excited over that? Girls. He would never understand them.
He watched Yumi with her expressive hand gestures as she talked with the rest of the girls, Ino and her loud voice booming over the others, Sakura contradicting whatever Ino had just said, TenTen glancing at the blond and the pink haired girl and laughing along with the other brunette. His eyes finally settled on the indigo haired goddess next to him. She was just...perfect. Her pale colored eyes with a hint of lavender color were so mysterious. Her dark blue hair was up to her waist. Her nose and mouth were small, but not so much that they looked tiny. She was pretty slim. He never noticed before how Hinata was beautiful. Before he could look at her any longer though, his thoughts were interrupted.
"Naruto, are you ok?" Hinata asked him, smiling in concern.
"Huh? Oh, Yeah! I'm great! Actually Hinata, I was wondering, would you mind if I walked you to class after lunch?" The blond boy looked down before his friends could tease him about his cheeks turning slightly pink.
"Sure Naruto! That would be great!" Hinata smiled.
The rest of lunch passed by pretty quickly. The group was joined by their three good friends Lee, Shino, and Chouji. They joked, and enjoyed their lunch like they did everyday. After lunch, Naruto walked Hinata to class, arm in arm again. To her suprise, he didn't only walk her to her class after lunch, but to each of her other classes for the rest of the afternoon. Hinata started wondering why Naruto was even nicer than usual, but she ignored the thought.
