Lucky Star
Chapter 7- Chocolate Cheesecake
"Let Plan: Tenji commence!" That exclamation was meet with silence.
"Umm…Sakura?" Hinata asked. Sakura looked like a pink lava lamp, glowing with parts of her brain being jello in her brain never connected, "YES!?!" Note, very bright lava lamp plugged in very bright, enough to blind and destroy.
"You know we don't have a plan yet, right?" Hinata prodded, where are customers when you need them, she mentally asked. It was Monday and the shop was relatively empty, it was raining out and no one seemed to want coffee or even to leave the comforts of their warm house. She wished she could be sleeping too.
-WHAP--"HINATA!?! ANYBODY HOME?" A familiar loud voice said. She instantly turned red, "Hi Naruto," she managed to say.
A bright grin, almost like Sakura's lava lamp, was given, he turned to whisper to her (or tried to whisper), "Say, Hinata-chan, why are Ino and Sakura cackling like witches?" She turned to see Ino and Sakura deviously drawing on a white board that had previously said, "SAVE US!!! FREE COFFEE!!" and a girly scrawly next to it, "And a free pig on the side" thanks to the desperation of bored Ino and a tired Sakura, but no one had come in so there was no free coffee given or any pigs.
Hinata turned back to see Naruto scratching his chin, deeply thinking, "Sakura and Ino are trying to get Neji and Tenten together."
"You mean they aren't together?"
Hinata sighed, "Yes, Naruto. They were never together in the first place."
Naruto looked even more confused, "But Neji always threatened any guy who would even try to talk to Tenten," he scooted in, looking both ways as if he was seeing if someone was listen, "he even put up his Hyuga shield around her."
"Hyuga shield?" Hinata had some Hyuga lessons before she was kicked out of the main compound, but she never recalled learning or hearing about a Hyuga shield.
Naruto nodded certainly, erasing any signs of deep thinking or seriousness from his face, "You know the one that puts a 5 mile radius on anyone a Hyuga cares about, that says, "Say away or face a thousand years of pain?""
"I never learned that one," Hinata commented, more to herself, she wished she could have learned that one. That way she could have gotten rid of that evil bitch Kin…
"Well, Neji's the only Hyuga I know that can do it, and I've met a lot of Hyugas," this was true, the Hyugas controlled almost every aspect of the police force in Japan, along side the Uchihas, and Naruto had a lot of contact with police officers.
Naruto continued on, "Hey, where's Tenten?"
Hinata shrugged, "It's her day off. She's at a concert with some friend of hers."
"Well, since no one's here, mind if I go home?"
Hinata, mentally got depressed, he didn't want to be around her? Was she really that bad? "Sure, if you want to."
Naruto grinned and hugged her, "Thanks! I've got to make a birthday cake for Iruka-sensei. He's turning old."
This shocked and melted Hinata's heart, "You know how to cook?"
Naruto sheepishly grinned and rubbed his head, "Well, you caught me, I was going to make him a ramen cake," he looked at her with wide eyes, "Do you think he'll like it?"
Hinata blushed even more and smiled, "I think he'll love it." He instantly brightened and ran out the door. A moment later a head popped back in, "Thanks Hinata. See you later!"
Hinata stared at the door for a while with a silly smile on her face. Then she was ganged up on, "So what were you talking to Naruto about?" Sakura asked, with an evil grin on her face, leaning on one of her shoulders. Ino leaned on the other, "Yeah, it looked like you were having a deeply intimate conversation. Care to clue us in?"
Hinata stiffened and did a weird little dance of denial, "It was nothing! Really! He was just telling me about a cake he was going to make for Iruka!" She was meet with bland stares that demanded the truth. "I'm telling the truth." The eyes held for a moment longer before looking towards each other in mental messaging. They both nodded before getting of her shoulders, "Then tell us who exactly Tenten went with to that concert of hers," Ino pressed.
This question caught Hinata by surprise, "…I don't know. She just said a friend from school," she meet Sakura and Ino's glance with a glare, "And shouldn't the two of you be plotting something?"
"We did, but if this friend of hers is a guy, then our plans are greatly altered."

"This is marvelous information," Dark shadow number one said, scribbling notes down, "This is going to be great!"
"But they're plan sucked."
"So? If you fail one try again!"
"Just like you do when you try to get a girl?" Dark shadow number two said, looking up from his game of sudoku.
Dark Shadow number one, held his hands up in defense, "Hey, the girl's heart is a fickle thing. It takes time to get it."
"Sure…fickle enough to grope."
"You gotta do what you gotta do…what did she say after the ramen cake?"
All dark shadow number two could do was sigh.
