Chapter 8: Surprises

"…*groan*…"Gaara opened one eye then opened the other and saw Kiyomi feeding Pablo

"Ah, ohayo Gaara. Did I wake you up?"

"…Kiyomi…?"

"Shh…Your brother is still sleeping…"Gaara then looked at his brother and sure enough, he was still asleep

"What time is it?"

"Hello, your brother is asleep!"

"He won't hear me, he's a heavy sleeper…"

"Eh! Really! Then I shouldn't have wasted all of my efforts on being quiet! It was so troublesome!"

"If you keep talking that loud then maybe he will wake up and you just sounded like your cousins…"

"Real-…"Gaara cut her off by putting a finger on her mouth, telling her to be quiet(since he was still sitting on the armchair, he had to straightly get up and shut Kiyomi up)

"*groan*…Don't worry I'll make sure that he's safe…"Gaara sweat dropped and removed his finger from Kiyomi's mouth

"Sorry…Was Kankurou sleep talking just now?" Kiyomi asked and Gaara nodded

"Did I really sound like Shinju and Shikamaru?*Gaara nodded* Ah…*sweat dropped* They must be affecting me…"Gaara felt something on his lap so he looked down and saw a blanket. Kiyomi noticed and said

"Oh I came back down here at around midnight cause I left my phone here and I saw that you didn't have a blanket and thought that you would be cold. So after I took my phone, I went back up and took an extra blanket, came down and well…You know the rest…"

"Thank you Kiyomi…What time is it?"

"Err…*look at phone* 4 a.m."

"And why are you up at 4 in the morning?"

"I have a slight insomnia so I sometimes wake up too early and when I do, I go to the kitchen and get some snacks before going back up and read my manga. Did I wake you up?"

"No…I usually wake up at 3 or 4 so is okay…"

"Eh? You have-…"this time Gaara covered her mouth for a minute before uncovering it

"Gomen ne…Causing so much trouble for you so early in the morning…You have insomnia too?*Gaara nodded* What's the earliest time you've ever woken up?"

"1.45 a.m."

"Really? The earliest for me is actually 3...*Kankurou snored**looks at Kankurou*I never realized how weird Kankurou looks without his make-up…"

"Face paint!*snore*" Gaara sweat dropped…again

"Does that happen a lot?"

"No, sometimes."

At around 6...

"I guess it's time to wake up." Temari said after she let out a yawn

After a few minutes of brushing her teeth, brushing her hair and then tying them up to the usual four pig-tails, she looked for her clothes that she packed in her bag…

"Did Kankurou repack my stuff or did I accidentally pick out clothes that-…Nope it was Kankurou. Damn him! Alright I have two choices. First choice, I just wear the clothes cause I'll eventually change once I get home or I could go to school with worn out shorts and a grey t-shirt…*thinks for a few minutes* I guess I'll have to pick the first option or Ino is going to spread a rumor saying that I have no clothes so I have to wear this on most days…Or something like that." Temari said before she start changing

Few minutes later…

"*opens door* I'm gonna kill Kankurou!*close door*(right now she's in front of her room door) I can't believe he switched-…"Temari got cut off by a scream

"I recognize that scream!" Temari said before she ran down the stairs

"Kankurou what happened!" Temari asked as she finally reached down

"Nothing…Just a nightmare…"Kankurou said

"Damn, you got me worried for nothing…Where's Gaara?"

"I don't know." suddenly they heard another scream

"That came from upstairs!" Temari said before she rushed upstairs with Kankurou behind her

"It came from Shikamaru's room!" Kankurou said as they finally reached upstairs

As they rushed to Shikamaru's room, they saw a certain red head leaning against the door frame of Shinju's room…

"Gaara?" Temari said as she realized who it was(well actually she already knew since he's the only guy with red hair in the Nara's house now)

"What are you doing here?" Kankurou asked and all Gaara did was point at something in the room

Temari and Kankurou looked inside and saw Kiyomi on the ground laughing while Kazuki was shouting like crazy! Shinju was just sitting on Shikamaru's bed watching with her brother…

"I doubt that lazy ass can-…"Temari froze as she saw Shikamaru…shirtless*smirk*

Shikamaru felt someone looking at him so he turned and saw Temari. His eyes went slightly wide when he saw what Temari was wearing. Gaara noticed what Temari was wearing too and forgot to ask…

"Temari what are you wearing?" and Kankurou noticed as soon as Gaara asked and started snickering

"Huh?*looks down* Oh right that reminds me…"Temari said before hitting Kankurou on the head

"OW! What was that for?" he asked holing the spot he was hit

"Why the hell did you replace my clothes with this?" Temari nearly shouted

She was wearing a hot pink tank top and a jean mini skirt that has a heart pattern on one side at the edge of her skirt…

"What? It looks nice on you." Kankurou said with a grin

"The last time I wore this was last year!"

"So wearing it now means that it didn't have to go to waste." and Temari glared at him

"Err…Anyway…Shikamaru, Kazuki, Kankurou why don't you guys get ready. Kiyomi I'll help you make Pablo's food this time."

"But are you feeling better to go to school Shinju?" Kazuki asked

"Kiyomi woke me up at 5.30 and I saw both her and Gaara got ready already and I knew it meant that Kiyomi told Gaara to get ready while she wakes me up. Since I could wake up early means I'm feeling a little bit better…"Shinju said before Shikamaru placed his hand on her forehead

"Your fever's still up…"

"But it's not as high as yesterday's…"

"But it's still quite high. You think you can manage?"

"I guess…"

"Don't worry Shikamaru! If she feels dizzy or anything I'll give Shinju her medicine and bring her to the infirmary if it gets worse!" said Kiyomi

"Alright, make sure your friends keep an eye out too. You can get easily distracted sometimes." Shikamaru said

"That is so not tr-…Oh look! A bug! I'm gonna name you 'Bob'!"

"See what I mean…"Shikamaru said while Shinju laughed nervously and Kazuki sweat dropped

"Kiyomi…"Gaara said

"Ah right! Sorry! I'll ask Akira and Akito to help too so don't worry!"

After that, Gaara, Kiyomi, Shinju and Temari went down. Shinju and Kiyomi went to the kitchen to make Pablo's food and once they were done, they went back to the living room…

"Here Gaara! Why don't you feed Pablo this time?" Kiyomi said with a smile

Gaara looked at the food and stared blankly at it before taking it and started feeding Pablo…

"How do you guys know how to make tanuki food?" Temari asked the same question she asked Shikamaru before

"Shikamaru said he'll tell you about it right?*Temari nodded* Then I'll just let him tell you." Shinju said and Temari sighed

"Ah, good morning mum." Shinju said as she saw her mother walking down the stairs

"Ohayo Aunt Yoshino!"

"Good morning Shinju, Kiyomi. And you would be-…"

"I'm Temari and he's my little brother, Gaara."

"Is nice to meet you Temari, Gaara. If I recall there supposed to be-…"

"My other little brother is upstairs getting ready."

"Ah if that's the case I better go make breakfast."

"Do you mind if I help?"

"You know how to cook?"

"Yes, so if it's okay-…"

"Of course! Why don't you help me with your brothers' breakfast?" Yoshino said as she walked into the kitchen

"Okay." and that was the last word Temari said before going into the kitchen

Few minutes later…

"So what's with the scream Kazuki?" Kankurou asked as he, Kazuki and Shikamaru walked down the stairs

"My sister played a prank on me…"

"Does that happen everyday?"

"If she wakes up earlier than me then yes."

"Shikamaru, Kazuki! Breakfast is ready!" Yoshino said from the kitchen

"Kankurou you better hurry up or I'll give yours to Gaara!"

"Nice try but Gaara doesn't like some food I eat." Kankurou said as he walked into the kitchen

"And if it was pancakes?" Temari asked before smirking

"Temari don't you dare!" Kankurou said before he rushed to a seat beside Gaara

After they finish breakfast…

"Ah that was awesome…"Kankurou said with a satisfied smile

"Thank you for the food…"Gaara said

"Yeah thanks." Temari said

"We better get going Kiyomi." said Shinju

"Okay but who's gonna take care of Pablo?"

"Do you want me to bring it to the centre?" Yoshino asked

"I don't think that's necessary…"Gaara said

"What are you talking about?" Kiyomi asked

"Pablo's asleep…"

"You know I think that tanuki is going to be a very spoilt one." said Kazuki

"I agree." said Shikamaru

"You guys are mean…Is okay Aunt Yoshino! I think Pablo will be okay here."

"Alright then."

"C'mon, we don't want to be late for school!" said Shinju as she opened the door

"Thanks for having us over!" Kankurou said

"Sorry if we caused any trouble!" said Temari(she was the last one out of the door)

"Your welcome and there was no trouble at all! Feel free to come over again!" Yoshino said before she closed

When they finally reach the place where Shinju and Kiyomi have to go to a different direction…

"Okay see you guys at the party!" Shinju said

"See ya!" said Kiyomi

"Later!" Kankurou said before they started walking again and soon they reached the place where Kazuki has to go

"Sayonara!" Kazuki said before taking off

"Well let's go." said Temari

"Troublesome…"

Few minutes later…

"Hey Shikamaru, you still haven't answered my question."

"If your talking about the one yesterday then its simple."

"And what is the answer?"

"You know about the Nara Centre right?" and Temari nodded

"Well my parents are the managers/directors of the centre. My dad takes care of the animals at the centre and makes medicine for both animals and people. My mum makes the food for the animals and also she's like a doctor. When she's not so busy, she'll help my dad."

"Okay this might be a random question but how did you and your sister learn to fight?"

"My dad taught my sister some defense moves and she eventually learned how to fight and my dad taught me how to fight since he was like a cop or something before he started the business at the centre. Is really troublesome."

"You just talked the most you ever talked you know that?" Kankurou said

"Cause your troublesome sister was asking me troublesome questions."

"Shut up!"

"See? Troublesome…"

"I said shut up!"

"Whatever…"

At Konoha Middle School…

"It seems were the earliest again…"

"Kiyomi…Is 6.30 in the morning and school starts at 8."

"So?"

"Seriously…Sometimes I hate your slight insomnia."

At Konoha High, when Shikamaru, Temari, Kankurou and Gaara just walked right through the front gate…

"SHIKAMARU! TEMARI! KANKUROU! GAARA!" they heard a certain hyperactive blonde behind them. They turned around and saw Naruto running towards them

"Naruto, don't be so loud in the morning will ya? Especially this early…"

"Your cousins again?"

"What do you think?"

"Alright, so is everything set for the-…"Naruto got cut off

"Shikamaru~!"

"*sigh* Yes Ino?"

"I was wondering, if you don't have anything to do tomorrow maybe we could go out for a movie or something." Ino said with a smile

"Sorry Ino but he already has plans." Temari said

"Oh, I didn't know you guys were dating." and Temari scoffed

"We are not dating, he just already has plans."

"With you." Ino knew perfectly well that they are not dating but she just wanted to try to annoy Temari

"How stupid can you be!"

"So you guys are dating?" Ino said ignoring what Temari just said

"Do you not understand that-…"Temari got cut off by Shikamaru covering her mouth with his hand

"We're not dating Ino and I do have plans for tomorrow, sorry. We gotta go now so if you'll excuse us…"Shikamaru said as he uncovered Temari's mouth and dragged her to the school building by her hand with her two brothers and Naruto behind them

In the school building…

"What was that for!"

"Ino was just trying to annoy you, you troublesome woman."

"So your saying the whole dating thing was just a way to annoy me?"

"Yes."

"Anyway Shikamaru, is everything set for tomorrow?" Naruto asked

"Hinata, Shinju and Kiyomi haven't done the decoration, the set ups and stuff. Hinata is going to start doing all of that today."

"What about Shinju and Kiyomi?"

"Shinju and Kiyomi can't do it today but they'll help anyway they can tomorrow."

"Is Shinju even alright to go to the party tomorrow?" Kankurou asked

"She said she'll be fine but I'm not so sure myself."

"I think she'll be alright!" said Naruto

At their homeroom class…

"Hey guys!" Naruto said as soon as he, Shikamaru, Temari, Kankurou and Gaara walked in their homeroom class

"What's up?" Sasuke asked

"H-hi Naruto…"

"Shikamaru, did Ino asked you out just now?" Sasuke asked

"Yeah and this troublesome woman fell into her trap." and Temari glared at him

"What trap?" Ten Ten asked

"Ino was trying to annoy Temari." said Kankurou

"How?" Sakura asked

"By saying-…"Kankurou was interrupted

"If you say it Kankurou then I'll tell everybody about your-…"Temari was cut off

"Nevermind all that! So what do we have after homeroom?"

"Chemistry with Orochimaru sensei…"Neji said

"Damn I hate that class!" said Sasuke

"Why?" Chouji asked with his mouthful

"Orochimaru sensei has this obsession with Sasuke…"Sakura said

"An obsession? With Sasuke? Is that guy gay? He gives me the creeps and he also looks gay." Kiba said

"How did this conversation about having Chemistry later with Orochimaru sensei turned to if Orochimaru sensei is gay?" Ten Ten asked

"I don't know but I hope they fire Orochimaru sensei and get us a new Chemistry teacher that isn't so freaky and…gay…." said Kankurou

"Agree." the gang said(excluding Gaara and Shino…and Lee…He wasn't paying attention)

Time skipped and it was now 5th period which means…

"Karate class with Itachi sensei is starting now so we better get going." said Sakura as she stood up from her seat. The gang did the same, all except for Sasuke…

"Aren't you coming Sasuke?" Sakura asked as she looked at Sasuke

"Alright, I'm coming…"Sasuke said as he got up

At Konoha Middle School…

"Well lunch was awesome, right Shinju?" Kiyomi asked, the bell just rang and now Kiyomi and Shinju are walking back to their class from the cafeteria

"Yeah…"

"You okay?"

"Yes…"

"Is your fever still high? Do you need to take your medicine? Do you need to see the nurse?"

"You ask too many questions Kiyomi." Shinju said

"Sorry."

"Is alright." Shinju said as they reached the class

"Hey Shinju! You feel alright?" Akito asked from his seat

"Yes and I'll seriously make up for yesterday."

"Is fine, as long as you recover soon." Akira said

"You sure? I was thinking that maybe we can go out after school today so I can make it up to you." Shinju said with a smile and Akira's eyes went wide cause of disbelief on what he just heard

"And what were you thinking for me?" Akito asked

"Was thinking of treating you today after school."

"That all?" Akito said with a pout and Shinju rolled her eyes

"I was thinking of treating you your favorite food." Shinju said and Akito's mouth was shaped as an 'o' after that information that made it clearer

"SERIOUSLY!" Akito shouted

"Yup."

"So what do you say Akira?" Kiyomi asked with a sly smirk

"I don't know…"

"And you previously wanted me to go out with you."

"It just doesn't seem right since your sick…"

"I'm offering it and if you don't answer 'yes' or 'no' then I'll just cancel it and make it up to you another way."

"…"

"Well…?" Akito asked

"…Fine…"Akira said as he started to blush and a smile appeared on Shinju's face

"Great! Now I can make it up for both of you!" Shinju said and there was a small(barely visible but visible) smile on Akira's face but he quickly replaced it by putting back his expressionless face

'Attention to all students! Please head to the gym immediately!' the headmaster of Konoha Middle School said through the intercom

"I wonder what's up." said Shinju

"I don't know but we better go." said Akito

"Let's go Shinju!" Kiyomi said as she walked out the door

"Coming!" Shinju said before rushing to her cousin

Akito then started to hum…

"What are you humming about?" Akira asked

"Nooothing…"

"Akito…"Akira said death glaring him

"What? I can't hum? Is it against the rules to hum for no reason? If there is such rule then-…"

"If you don't tell me right now I'm telling Kiyomi about your crush on her." and Akito lost most of his colours

"Didn't Shinju told you not to blackmail me any more!"

"Yeah…So?"

"Why aren't you listening to her?"

"I am but I'm just doing this, this one time before I stop and also because you're hiding something."

"Let's just say it's been a long time since I've seen you happy…"

"How do you know I'm happy when I'm not even smiling idiot."

"Oh c'mon. I know your happy! You're my brother and besides, you got a date with a girl you have a crush on!" Akito said with a sly smirk as he put his arm around his brother shoulder and Akira's face started to turn red

"SHUT UP AKITO!" Akira shouted, face still red

"You don't need to hide it Akira." Akito said trying to hold back laughter

"SHUT UP!"

"Alright, alright…Calm down, just be happy that you have a date with-…"

"SHUT IT!" Akira shouted and Akito started laughing cause he could finally tease his brother and actually make him blush

"Let's go to the gym. I bet Kiyomi and Shinju are waiting for us…"Akito said in-between laughter

"Whatever…"Akira said(HIS FACE WAS STILL RED! XD)

At Konoha High, at the gym…(they have karate class in the gym)

"Ah, hello class."

"Hi Itachi sensei!" said one girl

"Why don't you all get change while I set up the mats." Itachi said with a smile and the students went to change

Few minutes later…

"Itachi sensei. Since we're done changing, is it okay if we helped you?" One of the girls said

"That would be very thoughtful but I don't want any of you to be tired for the lesson later."

"Is okay sensei!" said a random girl

"We won't be tired!" said another random girl

And soon most of the girls(make note, the girls that are helping are not from any of the Sasuke, Naruto, Kiba, Shikamaru or Neji fan club….okay well there are some girls from the Sasuke fan club but that was so they can get close to Sasuke…anyway go back to reading…)in the class started helping Itachi out…

"Wow…Do you think they'll start an Itachi fan club soon?"

"I don't know Kiba…I don't know…"Neji said as he looked at the girls helping their sensei *cough*Sasuke's*cough*brother*cough*

And the gym was finally set up for karate class…

"Alright I will announce your partners for today. First off, Kaito vs. Zaku."

"Your going down Zaku!"

"We'll see…"

"Second, Kai vs. Shino."

"Why do I have to fight that guy? Well is better then fighting with girls…and Shikamaru…" Kai thought

"Next, Kankurou vs. Lee."

"YOSH! I WILL WIN THIS YOUTHFUL MATCH!"

"Great…I have to fight mini Guy sensei…"Kankurou thought before sighing (his expression was like this -.-")

"Sasuke vs. Chouji." and almost every student in the class(excluding Sasuke) eyes went wide

The whole class looked at Chouji…

"What?" Chouji asked with his mouth full of chips

"You are going against Sasuke." said Shikamaru

"So?"

"Chouji, listen to me. You . Are . Going . Against . Sasuke . Uchiha! Itachi's younger brother!" Shikamaru said and Chouji's eyes went wide

"Next, Naruto vs. Gaara."

"I'm gonna win this! Believe it!"

"Neji vs. Kiba." and Kiba's eyes went wide

"Shit! I'm gonna die!" said Kiba

"Shikamaru vs. Taichi."

"Troublesome…"

"Hinata vs. Temari." and Hinata's eyes went wide

"Is alright Hinata, I'll go easy on you…"

"Oh…O-okay, T-t-temari…"

"Next, Yuri vs. Ino."

"Aww…I wanted to fight someone stronger…"said a girl with blue hair tied into a pony-tail and golden eyes

"You'll regret that bitch!" Ino said

"Mitsu vs. Sakura."

"So I'm up against a girl with pink hair?" a girl with light brown hair that ends somewhere in the middle of her back and blue eyes

"Why? Got a problem?"

"Nope, your hair suits you and your name. Is nice." she said with a smile

"Thanks." Sakura said also with a smile

"Tayuya vs. Amai."

"So I'm fighting against a girl that is Ino friends huh?" a girl with green straight hair that ended three inches above her butt and soft chocolate brown eyes

"Kin vs. Ten Ten."

Itachi continued til the whole class was finally paired up with someone…

"Alright everybody, begin!" Itachi said and the class begin to fight their partners

Few minutes later…

"Temari is the winner!"

"Sorry Hinata…"

"I-is a-alright…"

All of the girls' matches ended quickly. Temari won hers, Ten Ten and Sakura won too. Amai and Yuri also won their match. Soon the girls went to see how the guys' matches were going. Sasuke already won his and so did Neji. Zaku and Kaito were in a tie and Kankurou purposely lost to Lee cause of Lee's non-stop ranting about making Guy proud of him if he wins the match. Naruto won his match with Gaara which surprised Temari and Kankurou. Kai won his match with Shino and the only match that is still currently going on is the one between Shikamaru and Taichi…

"*pant**pant**pant* Not bad…*pant* I heard that your actually a lazy ass…*pant**pant* And Kai's old childhood friend…*pant* Your not bad for a lazy ass…"Taichi said before panting some more

"*pant* Troublesome…*pant* Hurry up and attack…"Shikamaru said before panting a little

"You asked for it!" Taichi said before running towards Shikamaru, ready to land a punch to his stomach

"Wait! Isn't Shikamaru still injured?" Naruto asked and his friends' eyes went wide

"I can't believe he didn't tell Itachi!" said Sasuke

"What should we do?" Sakura asked

At the last minute when Shikamaru was just about to get punch, he dodge by moving to the side and Taichi couldn't stop so he missed. Shikamaru was now behind Taichi, finding an opening Shikamaru then hit his back and Taichi hit the floor…

"The winner is Shikamaru! Alright times up. I'll see you all next Tuesday. Hurry up and get change or you'll be late for your next class."

"Shikamaru are you crazy!" Kiba said as their lazy friend walk towards them

"What?"

"Your still injured! Why didn't you tell Itachi?" said Sakura

"It was too troublesome…"

"So you decided to fight instead of telling Itachi about your injuries!" Ten Ten said(ah I forgot to tell you guys that the gang (excluding Temari, Gaara and Kankurou) have known Itachi for a long time so they don't bother calling him 'Itachi sensei')

"Pretty much…"

"*sigh* I can't believe you, you lazy ass!" said Temari

"C'mon let's go get change. We have social studies next." Neji said before he and his friends head to change

Time skipped and now it's the 7th hour Math with Ibiki…

"Alright so when we times this and divide it with 67 we will get-…"(sorry but I'm only thirteen so don't judge me besides I can't even hear what my math teacher is saying since my class is usually so noisy)

RIIIIIIIIING!

"Alright, I will see you all next week. Make sure to do page 7, 8, 9 and 10. I expect your homework on this desk before I come in the class, understood?"

"Yes…"the class said simultaneously and with that Ibiki lift the class

"Well what do you think Kurenai sensei is going to make us do today?" Ten Ten asked

"Hn…"

"You know I hate it when you say that."

"Hn…"

"Neji stop that!"

"Hn…"

"Neji!" Ten Ten never noticed that Neji was smirking

"Hn…"Ten Ten then whack his arm

"Ow! What was that for!"

"For not listening to me!"

"I was just playing!"

"Oh yeah well I wasn't having any fun!"

"It was just a joke Ten Ten!"

"I don't find it funny!"

"Sorry! How the hell should I know if it's funny or not to you!"

"Well maybe-…"

"The lovebirds are at it again I see…"

"SHUT UP SHIKAMARU!" Ten Ten and Neji shouted

"Calm down…"Shikamaru said as he put his hands up in defense

Neji and Ten Ten then noticed that Shikamaru wasn't the only one there…

"What's up?" Ten Ten asked

"Well let's see…Kurenai sensei is not here yet, Hinata is listening to Naruto, Me, Sasuke, Kiba and Kankurou are bored, Gaara is here with a reason that I don't know off…I don't think he has a reason…Anyway, Temari was being 'troublesome' to Shikamaru so we thought to come here." said Sakura

"Why…?" Neji asked

"*shrug* Ino is sitting behind me so having Shikamaru coming over there would make her more irritating…"said Sasuke

"Anyway so the party is tomorrow and Shikamaru's sister and cousins are coming, we're going to play truth or dare, what else?" Kiba asked

"Well-…"Shikamaru was cut off by his phone vibrating in his pocket

GUESS WHAT! Shinju said she's going to make it up for Akira and Akito today! She's gonna treat Akito his favorite food that he barely gets to eat for a long time and is going out with Akira! OH! AND I WANT YOU GUYS TO PUT THESE SONGS AT THE PARTY! THEY ARE AWESOME!' and after reading the text Shikamaru let out a groan

"What is it this time?" Kiba asked

"Kiyomi want several songs for the party. Ten Ten you should take a look at it since your in charge on the music with Kiba and Naruto." Shikamaru said as he hand her his phone

"Is that all she wanted to text you?" Ten Ten asked as she looked at the list of songs

"Also said that Shinju is going to be late for awhile…"

"Why?" Kiba asked

"She's taking that guy who made Kiyomi cry yesterday out and treating his brother to his favorite food to make it up to them…"Shikamaru said bluntly

"WHAT! SHE'S GOING OUT WITH THAT JERK!" Kiba shouted

"Who's going out with who?" a voice said behind Kiba and the gang looked at the direction of the voice and found Kai with a curious look

"Shinju is going out with that guy who made Kiyomi cry yesterday." said Sakura and Kai's eyes went wide

"Seriously! Shikamaru are you even okay with that!"

"Not really but Shinju said she wanted to make it up to them and I know it's gonna be troublesome to stop her." he said as he closed his eyes and rubbed the back of his neck

"So to make it short, you don't approve of her taking that guy out but you know that you can't stop her that easily and that its 'troublesome', right?" Kai said

"Yup, pretty much…"

"I can't believe you…"Kai said as he slapped his forehead with his palm

"What a lazy ass…"said Temari with a sigh

"Some of the songs she chosen isn't that bad…I'll discuss it with Naruto and Kiba later. Let me write it down first." Ten Ten said as she took out a piece of paper and a pen and started writing down the list of songs from the text

"Well since that's done-…"Kankurou got cut off

"Alright class get back to your seats now!" Kurenai said as she walked towards the desk and they did what they were told

"Sorry I'm late class. Now for today's lesson-…"Kurenai got cut off by the intercom

"ATTENTION STUDENTS! WE WILL HAVE SOME NEW STUDENTS COMING TO THE SCHOOL! THEY WILL ARRIVE ON MONDAY! THEIR HOMEROOM CLASS WILL BE KAKASHI HATAKE'S! I EXPECT ALL STUDENTS FROM THAT CLASS TO GIVE THEM A WARM WELCOME! THAT IS ALL!" Tsunade said

"WHAT!" the students from the class could hear Kakashi shouted from the teachers' room…

"We're going to have some new students?" some random student asked

"I wonder if they're girls are guys…"said another random student

"If they're guys then do you think they'll be hot?" said a random girl student

"If they are I think they can never compete against the top 5 hottest guys in this school!"

"I wonder what she or he is like."

Soon the class was filled with noise talking about the new students. Same goes for the gang. With Sasuke and Sakura…

"So who do you think they're gonna be?" Sakura asked

"Don't know but if they're girls then I hope they won't become a fan girl."

"Typical Sasuke…"

"I bet neither of the guys would want that too, Sakura."

"So true but still."

"Hn…"

With Neji and Ten Ten…

"I wonder what the new students will be like. I hope they are not some fan girls…"said Ten Ten

"Shouldn't I be saying the 'hope is not a fan girl' line?"

"Yeah I knew you were going to say it so I said it. Have a problem?"

"Hn…"

"Are you doing that to irritate me?"

"Hn…"

"Neji!"

"Hn…"

"I bet you can't stop saying 'hn' for a minute!"

"…"

"What's with the sudden silence?"

"…"

"Are you listening to me?"

"…"

"Hello? Neji?"

"…"

"I don't get you…"

"…Hn…"

"You were planning that weren't you?" Ten Ten said death glaring him

"*shrug*…Hn…"

"Neji!"

With Naruto and Hinata…

"I can't believe it! We're going to have some new students! Isn't that awesome Hinata?" he asked looking at the girl beside him

"Y-y-yeah…I ho-hope w-we c-c-can be fr-friends with t-them…"

"I wonder how they are like. Do you think they like ramen? I wonder what type or people they are. Goth? Jock? Preppy? Bookworms?…"Naruto kept on talking and talking that I got too lazy to type what else he was gonna say and Hinata just smile as she listened to her crush

With Shikamaru and Temari…(I'm just putting couples for reason but if your wondering Kiba's mind is occupied with thoughts about Shinju going out with Akira, Kankurou fell asleep, Gaara was being…well…Gaara, Shino's being…himself, Chouji is obviously eating, Lee keep talking about youth and how awesome Guy is(which is torturing Ino…) and Kaito is complaining to Kai about Kin)

"Who do you think the new students will be, lazy ass?"

"*shrug* Don't know…"

"But I have a pretty good idea on who they are…"

"Hey why are you spacing out?" Temari asked

"Nothing." Shikamaru answered simply

"Y-…"

"I want this whole class to shut up or detention after school, 2 hours!" Kurenai nearly shouted and the whole class was dead silent

"Okay I know that since we're having some new students you all are a little curious and excited but that doesn't mean you can just pretend that I'm not here and do whatever you want! I'm not like Kakashi who always read that perverted book of his! Now let's start the lesson." Kurenai said as she turned to the board and started writing stuff

The lesson went on and on and…well you get it…Anyway, soon school was over and the gang went to the school's front gate…

"So I guess we'll all see each other at the party right?" Sasuke asked and everybody nodded

"Alright then we'll see you guys tomorrow!" said Ten Ten and the gang went their separate ways

At Konoha Middle School…

"*sigh* I'm sorry Akira…"Shinju said

"For…?"

"Kiyomi can't walk home alone and I don't think is right and since I'm treating your brother first…Well you get it…Sorry but it's not going to be only us…"

"Is alright…"

"Damn!" thought Akira

"Should we go?" Akira asked Shinju

"Ah yes! Kiyomi, Akito let's go!"

"Kay, kay!" Kiyomi said

"So first we'll be going to Akito's favorite place okay?" Shinju asked and Akira just nodded

"ALRIGHT!" Akito shouted

"Let's go!" said Kiyomi and they started walking

At Akito's favorite place…

"It's been ages since I've been here!" Akito said as they walked to a table

"It was just last month…"Akira said as he took a seat

"That just shows how muck Akito love this place." said Shinju and Kiyomi giggled as they took their seats

"Here are your menus." a blond woman with spirally glasses who looks like a 16 year old said as she gave them the menus

"Tha-…Shiho-san?"

"Ah Shinju-san! It's been such a long time…"

"You're working here?"

"Yes. This is my part time job."

"…"

"What is it Shinju-san?"

"…Do you…"

"What?"

"Do you still have a crush on my brother?" Shinju asked and Shiho's face turned red

"W-w-what are you t-talking about S-shinju-san! Err…Umm…I'll be right back to get your orders!" Shiho said before going away

"I'll take that as a 'yes'." Kiyomi said as she started to laugh

"You know her?" Akira asked

"She used to stalk my brother too but stop for some unknown reason. *sigh* I'm glad she stopped! It would be so troublesome to have her and Ino stalking him whenever they want."

"And you respect her?" Akito asked

"Nah…But whatever…"

"Does she respect you?" Akito asked

"I guess since my IQ is above average for a middle school student…"

"What about you Kiyomi? Do you know her?" Akito asked

"Let's just say they both hate each other…"Shinju said

"What do you mean?" Akira asked

"Well Shiho couldn't believe that Kiyomi is smart enough to skip grades like me since she loves anime and rarely study and all which kinda got on Kiyomi's nerves and well…"

"Let's just say I kicked her ass and even though she hates me she will never bother, irritate or insult me ever again…"

"Okay have you decided on what to order yet?" Shiho asked as she came back with her notepad

They told Shiho their orders and left with a smile but a slight glare at Kiyomi…(sorry but I can't think on what their gonna eat so whatever)

"Anyway what are we gonna do later?" Akito asked

"Let's do something awesome!"

"I don't think that's a good idea Kiyomi."

"Why Shinju!"

"I just don't think it's a good idea…"

"Why not?"

The two cousins kept on arguing/talking leaving the twin brothers to listen…

"Hey Akira…"

"Yeah…?"

"Sorry…Your date with Shinju got ruin cause of me and Kiyomi right?"

"Is okay…"

"I'll make it up to you okay?"

"It's alright Akito…"Akira said and suddenly a thought struck Akito

"Damn…I…Totally didn't think of that…"

"Think of what?" Akira asked

"Nothing…"and a smirk appeared on Akira's face

"I see…This feels like a-…"

"Shut up…"

Few minutes later, Shiho came with their food…

"Shiho-san, one thing…"

"What is it?"

"Just wondering but…"

"…?"

"Do you go to…Konoha High School?"

"Ah yes, I do. Why?"

"What class are you in?"

"Class B why?"

"No reason…Just wondering…"

"Are you in Konoha High School too? With your IQ you might as well be."

"Nah…I'm In Konoha Middle School. For some reason me and Kiyomi aren't allowed to skip grades for the time being."

"Oh I see…That's such a shame. What school is Shikamaru-san in?"

"Err…"

"Damn why did I bring out the school thing!"

"So Shiho-san…*smirk* What do you think of my brother?" and Shiho's face gone red again

"W-w-well…He's s-smart and…"

"And…?"Shinju said, a smirk still on her face

"Oh look at that! I gotta get back to work! It was nice talking to you Shinju-san!" Shiho said before going to the kitchen

"Well that was fun."

"Great idea Shinju!" said Kiyomi

"Alright so…Seriously what are we gonna do after this?" Akito asked

"I don't know, what do you think we should do Akira?" Shinju asked

"Don't ask me…"

"I-…"

"No Kiyomi we will NOT do that." said Shinju

"Aww…Why not?"

"Cause I said so now think of something else besides that."

"If that's the case then I have no idea either."

"*sigh* Damn I can't think of anything too." Akito said

"How bout we walk around town while finding something to do." said Shinju

"Well is better then nothing." said Kiyomi

"Agreed." said Akito and Akira simple nodded

They continue to talk and in half an hour they finished eating…

"Okay we should get going." said Shinju

"Yeah let go to the park first!" said Akito

"Why the park?"

"I don't know." Akito said with a smile

"Baka…"

"I heard that Akira!"

"I didn't say anything…"

"I can't believe that this is going to be the last day that all of us are gonna be together…"Kiyomi thought

"Kiyomi don't worry alright?"

"Oh sure you say that but-…"

"I know it's our last but still…Don't worry."

"Fine."

"Shiho-san I left the money on the table!"

"Is been nice seeing you again Shinju-san. Hope we'll see each other again." Shiho said with a smile as they left

"So are we still going to the park?" Kiyomi asked

"Pretty much." Akito said

"What are we gonna do there anyway?"

"How the heck should I know!"

"Troublesome…"said Shinju

At the Nara's house…

"Hey Shikamaru! Where's Kiyomi and Shinju?" Kazuki asked the lazy Shikamaru who was on the couch watching tv

"Out."

"Out where?"

"Out."

"Dude, I'm asking out where?

"And I said out meaning they went out. Troublesome…"

"But they didn't even come home and change and everything."

"Well they could have just went out with their friends after school right?"

"Y-yeah…By the way…"

"What?"

"How do you know they were out?"

"Kiyomi texted me saying that Shinju would be going out but never said anything about her. I guess she went with her."

"Do you have any idea who their going with?"

"Since when are you so overprotective Kazuki?"

"I don't know but shouldn't you be worried too? Since Shinju is your little sister and she's sick too!"

"She's responsible than you isn't she?"

"No! Whoever said that she was responsible than me!"

"She is stronger than you right? She can beat you up every time you feel like throwing a party right? She's a 13 year old girl who can sometimes boss you around and also she is able to skip grades and can handle her own problems sometimes too."(make not from where Kazuki asked him where their sisters are til now, Shikamaru didn't took his eyes away from the tv)

"W-well…Yeah…But what about Kiyomi?" Kazuki asked and this time Shikamaru looked at him

"*sigh* Do I really have to explain? She play pranks on you, sure, she's obsessed with anime like Shinju, yeah, she's easily distracted but she is willing to take care of a baby tanuki and she said that she'll make sure that she'll take care of Shinju. She is also smart enough to skip grades. Is that enough to convince you that they are okay?"

"Err…Well…Fine but who are they with anyway?"

"I think their names were Akira and Akito." Shikamaru said as he looked back at the tv

"You mean one of those jerks that made Kiyomi cry are with them!"

"Now I can understand why your so overprotective over Kiyomi now." Shikamaru said as he faced his cousin again and Kazuki stiffened a little

"It was because that Akira guy made Kiyomi cry isn't it?"

"…"

"Well?"

"Yeah what of it?"

"Is it because on what happened when we were little?"

"It was my fault that she cried that time and I never wanted to see that again."

"You didn't see it. You only heard that he made her cry. What happened in the past was not your fault."

"Yes it was! Because of me she cried for the very first time! The most hyperactive, crazy, cheerful, smart ass, anime and animal loving girl I've ever known who is my sister cried for the first time because of me!" Kazuki said as he looked down at the ground and Shikamaru stood up and walked towards Kazuki

"Kazuki calm down. It was not your fault. Don't put the blame on yourself. Is already troublesome to have our sisters gone with those guys but they're their friends and I bet he didn't mean to make Kiyomi cry."

"I guess your right…"

"Besides don't you usually use this chance to throw a party since Shinju's not here?" Shikamaru asked with a small smile

"*laugh* Your right again but we are going to an awesome party tomorrow so I want to save all my energy for that."

"I can't guarantee that it's gonna be awesome-…"

"Are you kidding me Shikamaru? The party is at the Hyuuga Mansion! And were staying there for the night too! It's gonna be sweet!"

"I guess it's gonna be pretty awesome."

"Alright I'm going to go pack you better too. Don't tell me your gonna do it last minute."

"That's the plan. Is too troublesome to pack so early."

"*laugh* Whatever you say Shikamaru. Whatever you say." Kazuki said before he went up the stairs

Few hours later Shinju and Kiyomi came back and Kiyomi and Kazuki got in a little fight…

"Where the heck were you guys!"

"Out." Shinju said simply and Kazuki sweat dropped

"You and your brother are pretty alike sometimes…"Kazuki said and Shinju smiled

"I know."

"Anyway we went out with some friends so what? Why are you suddenly caring?"

"Well maybe cause you're my little sister."

"So? Shinju is Shikamaru's little sister but I don't see him here asking where we were."

"Maybe cause you texted him saying that you guys were going out with some friends."

"See, you knew we were out cause Shikamaru told you so why are you asking?"

"I'm gonna leave cause I don't want to get dragged into this argument…"Shinju said before going up to her room and most likely the argument between Kiyomi and Kazuki continued (I have know idea to call it an argument or not)

Shinju was planning to go to her room but…

"*knock**knock*"

"Come in…"

"I'm back Shikamaru."

"I can tell by all the noise from downstairs."

"You couldn't sleep?"

"I was having a nice nap before Kazuki started the argument."

"Then why don't you go to your usual spot?"

"It's gonna rain soon."

"I see."

"So guess what I heard in school."

"What?" Shinju asked and Shikamaru smirked

"My class is going to have some new students." and this time Shinju smirked

"Really? I wonder who they are."

Few hours later Yoshino came back early and when they told her that they will be going to a party. She got excited and told Shikamaru and Shinju to get into the car and told Kazuki and Kiyomi to stay home and wait for them to come back. Another 2 hours later they finally came back and Yoshino gave something to Kazuki and Kiyomi. Once Shikaku came back they all had dinner and at around 12, Shikamaru, Kazuki, Shinju and Kiyomi went to bed, thinking about the awesome party that was coming up.
