Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, nor JT must die.

HEY GUYS!!! I'm feeling a little high today cos I JUST realized 9 people have favourited me!! I'm so touched lol. And 17 asked for alerts! Whoopee!! Oh by the way if there is some element missing in my story DO NOT HESITATE to leave a message okay. Or maybe I'm not good at phrasing things…bringing out emotion, things like that you know…

Anyway if possible could you guys (if you do have the time) review me on a certain chapter or something… Or else I don't know how my story is! Okay? (It's not that I'm asking for reviews for my story to be popular. You can even email me at kay)

Chapter 6: Uh-oh. We're in trouble.

Sakura peered at her friends nervously. It was lunch, and they were sitting at their usual place: the cherry blossom tree. She was afraid to ask anything.

Hinata, unusually started first. She was red in the face, and was twirling her hair more vigorously than usual. "Guys, I…I-I have t-to tell you some-something," she mumbled, her eyes fixated on the grass below her.

Sakura patted her shoulder encouragingly. "Go on," she smiled.

Ino grumbled, "Whatever it is, it can't be worse than mine." "Nor mine," Tenten and Zizi said with a guilty looks on their faces.

Then the 5 of them looked at each other. "I played hard to get."

"I beat up Kiba because… of something he said."

"I turned Neji down. I failed."

"Shikamaru isn't even interested in me."

"NARUTO KISSED ME."

Everyone turned to look at Hinata in shock. "WHAT?" Tenten yelled. Silence. Then- "What did you do then?" Zizi asked looking at the ground.

"I-I pushed him away and he said…" Hinata blushed a deep crimson red, "I'll never give up on you Hinata-chan. I've always liked you since I saw you, and I'm never giving up."

Silence. Then-

"OHHH MYYY GAWWWDDDD!!! That's the best news I've heard in days!!"

"Way to go Hinata!"

"Wow," Ino breathed.

Sakura was quiet though. Then everyone realized that. "What's wrong?" Zizi asked, concerned.

"Hinata, you DON'T like Naruto, do you? If you do, then…"Sakura's voice trailed off.

The others realized what she was talking about. "Then… the plan…" Ino realized.

Hinata couldn't answer. She was torn. "I-I have to go," she choked, and ran off.

"So she DOES like him," Tenten breathed.

Ino suddenly stood up after another round of silence.

"Then she won't do it," Ino finalized.

"Do what?" Zizi asked, even though she already knew what Ino was talking about.

Sakura summed it all up for the rest of them. "From, now on, Naruto will no longer be a target. Heck, he wasn't even like the rest of the gang in the first place. So Hinata can have a real relationship with him."

They cheered for Hinata. "God bless Hinata and Naruto," Sakura smiled to herself, as she heard an enthusiastic Tenten in the background, "I HEAR WEDDING BELLS!!" O.O

Zizi ran through the hallway searching for Hinata to inform her of the news. She sprinted up to the second floor, hoping that she'd be in class. An unexpected classmate was inside.

He was moaning at the back of the class. Apparently he didn't notice her. Zizi approached cautiously. She tapped his shoulder and a bloodied Kiba turned to face her, holding an ice pack in one hand. Her eyes widened at the sight of his bleeding nose.

"Oh MY GOD!!" Zizi gasped, "I'm so sorry." She sat down beside him and gently took the ice pack from him and using a few pieces of tissue, dabbed at his nose.

"Ow-OW!" Kiba winced and swore. Then he lifted his face to meet her gaze. "It was just a statement," he said suddenly. Zizi slowed her hand movement, but still continued to dab his nose.

"I…really like you, Zizi. And I only said that because… well, it was… I couldn't just not say anything when someone taunted me like that: 'So you gonna tackle that chick Kiba? I don't think you can take her!'" Kiba mimicked.

Zizi laughed. A genuine one. "Okay, okay. But it's very rude. And it hurts."

Kiba opened his mouth to say something, but closed it.

Zizi narrowed her eyes at him. "What?"

Kiba smirked. "IT HURTS, huh?"

Uh-oh, Zizi thought panickedly, I went too personal at that moment!

Meanwhile Tenten, Sakura and Ino were still sitting under the shade talking. Well actually Tenten was talking to Sakura while Ino was furiously typing away on her computer.

"So that's how I concluded Hyuuga Neji really IS an asshole," Tenten told Sakura. Sakura was intently listening. "So what about Uchiha, Sakura? Did you get him to notice you?" Tenten asked curiously.

Sakura nodded. "He thought I was probably easy, but I didn't make it to well for him." She folded her arms and imitated herself at that time when she said it. "Sorry. I don't date high school guys," she smirked.

Tenten and her slapped a high five. Then they started to notice Ino was acting weirder than usual. She was looking furious, typing on the computer. "Ino?"

Ino stopped typing and blinked. "I got to go. Take care of my laptop for me. See you after recess!" she called out running into the classroom block. Sakura and Tenten looked at each other, and then at her computer.

Immediately one knew what the other was thinking. They reached for her computer and went to 'Start'. "It's not right, nonono, not right," Sakura murmured but her fingers flexibly clicked on 'Recent Documents'. Tenten chuckled at Sakura's expression.

Then they went to the one at the top. It was Microsoft Word.

There was only one sentence on it. In bold and Italic.

It said: TIME FOR PLAN B.

Ino went up to Lee-san sexily and fluttered her eyelashes. Lee-san immediately caught sight of her eyes. For a moment she thought, Ha! I have him.

Then Lee-san blinked. "Ino, is there something in your eye?"

Ino scowled for a split second, then went back to sexy mode again. "LEE-SANNN!! I REALLY REALLY NEED TO TALK TO YOU IN PRIVATE!!" Ino put on the most sultry voice she could and smiled flirtatiously. At which Shikamaru sitting near Lee shot up to crane his neck to see her.

Good. Keep looking, handsome.

Lee-san smiled apologectically. "I'm sorry Ino, but right now I'm in love with Sakura-chan. Got to go!" Lee-san sprinted off before he could see her rejected face.

But Ino didn't feel rejected. She felt… extremely furious.

TIME FOR PLAN C.

Ino had had enough. She grabbed Shikamaru who was staring at her and walked off with him.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Shikamaru didn't have a clue on what she was sbout to do.

"You'll see," Ino smiled an incomprehensible smile. A dangerous smile.

Then they entered a small closet. Ino shut the door.

"THIS is where the fun begins," she giggles, and forced her lips onto him.

Hinata was hiding from the others at the rooftop.

Her eyes were difficult to read. Her smile was easy though.

She felt the cool wind caressing her hair and sighed calmly, closing her eyes.

And she opened them, seeing a tall person standing in front of her.

"Hinata-chan," he whispered softly.

That's it. She couldn't take it.

She ran to him like a child, melting in his arms as he took hold of her. And started to tear. She didn't know why.

"Hinata-chan," he spoke her name once more, as if it was like a prayer he said everyday.

"Naruto," she sobbed, burying her face into his arms, "I love you too."

And that was when she saw OTHER people on the rooftop. They were smiling.

"Sakura! Tenten!" Hinata broke free of Naruto's hug and went to them. "Wait here," she told him.

"Did Zizi tell you of the new 'rule'? It's something like the rule of the thumb actually," Sakura said mysteriously.

Hinata felt like she was in serious trouble. "What?"

"The rule is: Hinata must NOT take part in our plan cos she loves her target- well, Naruto- and we love her," Tenten said smiling.

Hinata started to laugh.

She had never felt like this before. So much…emotion.

A few seconds later, when Sakura and Tenten hugged her, she realized what it was.

HAPPINESS beyond boundaries.
