Okay, so I didn't prefrood this, or froopead or whatever. Um... Yeah. So if there are any inconsistencies or something doesn't really make sense, or something it's because it's 4 in the morning where I am. My head is hurting, but I just needed to write something. I didn't really plan any of this, but it happened anyway. Please ENJOY!

"Gosh, I never knew swearing in school could give you such a rush!" joked Sakura later in that café of theirs.

"Sorry guys. I shouldn't have suggested it," said Sophia.

"No, it was a good idea," said Ino.

"Plus, did you see Karin's face? Priceless," added Tenten. They all had to laugh at that. She had looked like a pug. They all knew in the back of their heads that she was making up a plan as they spoke. Some kind of payback. She wasn't going to let them get away with such a public insult. In fact…

"Karin, what are we going to do about them? We can't just let them go without some sort of punishment," asked Nozomi.

"I think we need to dig up some dirt on this new girl. She's clearly the inciter. The rest of them fell in line before she came. Sugako!"

"Yes?"

"Get out your laptop."

Sugako got out a gaudy bedazzled pink laptop. It might have been cute if she wasn't its owner. Karin immediately got onto Facebook. (Now, pretend that privacy settings don't exist on Facebook and that they can see everything.) The rest of the girls crammed in around her. She did a search for Sophia and found her immediately as her last name isn't very common. Her profile pic was her smiling with her mom. "How sad is that? Is that her best picture?" The rest of them laughed at Karin's 'joke.' She scrolled down her timeline, trying to find something interesting. Her eyes widened. Sophia went from being "in a relationship" to "single." "Look at this girls. It looks like actually someone went out with her. Probably some pox-faced nerd without any sense of fashion. Let's find him, shall we?" The rest of them laughed along with her cackle. She then went to her pics. She didn't find her in a romantic picture with a single guy. There was a picture with her lying on top of one but there were 15 other girls also lying on him, and they were on a set for a drama production.

Michiru whispered to Eiko, "Do you think we're ever going to find something?"

"What was that?" snapped Karin.

"Nothing…"

"There's got to be something here," she muttered to herself. She was about to give up when she hit the jackpot. Sophia was kissing someone. They were hugging, kissing holding hands, sitting on park benches. They were together with some other friends. Karin was hoping to find some nerdy pathetic boy, but was sorely disappointed on that account. She was incredibly attractive.

"Hah. We got the dyke. Michiru, you know how to get information around, right?"

"I'm offended you had to ask." She smiled mischievously and whipped out her cell phone.

"Damn…" whispered Nozomi, still looking at Sophia's ex-girlfriend.

Sugako added, "Who would have known that bitch could get someone that hot?"

"Shut up!" shrieked Karin.

"Still, now you don't need to worry about Sasuke, huh Karin? She's into girls," said Eiko, stupidly.

"Are you saying that I was threatened by that nothing? That I was afraid she could get the only boy attractive enough to be worthy of my beauty? Don't make me laugh." Eiko just shrugged.

Back with our favorite group of giggling girls. "Hinata, I was thinking. Ever since I found out that you liked Naruto," said Ino. Hinata's face turned bright red, and she started stammering.

"Ino, don't surprise her like that!" scolded Sakura

Ino just ignored her. "Anyway. I think that we should work out a plan to get you two together."

"I-I don't think that's such a good idea," stammered Hinata.

"I've got his number, you can call him, ask him if he wants to hang out, and if he says yes, then we'll help you get ready. It's only 4 right now, so if we hurry up, you guys could catch a movie at 7. You don't have to say it's a date. You could just say that it's two friends hanging out together," Ino delivered her spiel over Hinata's frantic shakings of her head and mutterings, Sakura's admonitions and Tenten's raucous laughter.

Sophia just grabbed onto Hinata's hand and whispered to her, "You don't have to do this if you don't want to. But if you ask me, I think it's a good idea."

Hinata stopped shaking her head and muttering. She looked up, her eyes wide. "Do you really think so?"

Sophia nodded. "You have to start somewhere. And if you're afraid Naruto will find out you like him, if you ask him out to see a movie, don't be. Naruto's, how can I phrase it?"

"An idiot," interrupted Tenten.

"To be blunt about it, yeah. He won't figure it out until you tell him outright."

"Really?" asked Hinata, hope in her voice.

Sakura gave a huge smile, "Yep."

Ino got even more excited, as she always did when she thought she might be about to give someone a makeover. "So are you going to do it?"

Hinata nodded. Sophia, Sakura and Ino all did a squee, and even Tenten beamed at the lovesick Hinata. Hinata took a couple calming breaths then pulled out her phone. She dialed the number. When Naruto picked up, she said without a tremor in her voice, "Hey Naruto. I really liked your performance of Juliet earlier." The rest of them could hear Naruto's laugh through the phone. "Anyway… I was wondering if you'd like to see a movie with me later?" Sophia could see Hinata's breathing get faster. She squeezed down on her hand for reassurance. Hinata smiled back and straightened up. "Really? That's awesome. Seven? Sure. I'll see you there." She hung up the phone. A huge smile stretched her face. "I can't believe it. I'm going to go on a date with Naruto!" They gave her a huge group hug.

"Come on everybody. Let's go to Hinata's we need to get her ready. If we run, we might be able to make it," called Ino, already at the door.

"Whoa. Calm down Ino. We're not running a race," said Sakura.

Tenten perked up at the word race. "Race? I love races. I'll race you Ino! Let's go!"

Tenten ran out the door, Ino at her heels, not one to let Tenten beat her at anything.

Once Naruto came knocking at the door, Hinata had her hair back in a messy bun, very faint makeup, Naruto wouldn't even be able to notice. She was wearing a blue, knee-length circle skirt and a knitted grey top. The rest of the girls were just sitting, chatting away, trying not to be conspicuous, not that Naruto would notice. "You look really nice," he said.

"Really? Thanks."

"Come on, or we'll miss the movie." He grabbed her arm and pulled her off. Once the door closed, they all burst out laughing.

"If we can get Naruto to figure out that Hinata has a crush on him by Christmas, we'll have achieved a miracle," sighed Sakura.

"Anyone want pizza? I'm kind of hungry," asked Sophia. They agreed on a half plain cheese for Sakura and Ino and a meatlover's with extra bacon for Tenten and Sophia. They spent the next hours watching T.V. and wondering how Naruto and Hinata's 'date' was going. Hinata finally came back at 10, cheeks red, a silly grin slapped on her refined features.

"What happened?! Tell all!" screamed Ino as soon as she saw Hinata's foot step in the door.

Hinata relayed the story of how Naruto let her pick the movie, since she was the one who asked to come. They ended up watching a comedy. He bought her a large tub of popcorn, he had heard that she liked it. (Idk why, but somehow I made it so that Hinata really likes popcorn…) When it was over they went on a walk around the town, talking about all kinds of things. Then Naruto said that he just had to show her something. He took her to Ichiraku Ramen for a bowl. "It was the best ramen I've ever had. I was surprised I'd never heard of it before. I really like him. The more time I spend with him, the more I like him."

"He likes you too. I'm not saying I know in what way, but he has to like you to hang out with you alone for a few hours," said Sophia.

"Do you think I should confess?" she asked quickly as though that would make the question less painful. "It's just that I don't think I can live with the uncertainty any longer, you know?"

"I know. I didn't make the first move with my ex. I waited around for her. We could have had a few more months if I hadn't been a chicken… I think that you should follow your heart or gut or hormones or whatever it is and when the moment feels right, don't miss it. That's just me," said Sophia.

"Thanks. I think I'm going to do it. Maybe even tomorrow! I just feel so empowered by these last few hours and that if I don't keep up the momentum I'm going to regret it."

"I think it's a great idea, Hinata. Listen to yourself. You haven't stuttered once. He's good for you this one," said Tenten with an encouraging smile.

Hinata smiled again, but when she spoke her voice was soft and slightly trembling, "And if, you know, it doesn't work out, then it can finally be over. One way or another, this fear, this anxiety, it'll be over."

"Oh sweetheart," said Sakura. "Come here." They embraced, causing everyone to engage in their second group hug of the day.

"Oh what the hell, do you guys want to stay over tonight?" asked Tenten, who shared the apartment with Hinata.

"Are you sure you wouldn't mind?" asked Sakura.

"Ooh, but I'll need to go get my makeup back and maybe some-" started Ino.

"No." But it wasn't Tenten, it was Hinata. "I think you've had enough for one day Ino."

"Just one more, please."

"You're addicted."

"I'm not addicted. I can stop whenever I want. I just don't want to." Hinata gave her a no-nonsense stare. Ino pouted. "Fine." The rest of the night was populated with junk food, bad movies, board games and lots of laughter.

The next day, they all went together, laughing all over each other. Tenten even joked that Naruto was about to declare his undying love for Hinata in the school's courtyard. So when they saw Karin and her lackeys, their faces fell into identical frowns.

"I forgot about them," said Hinata, almost pouting.

"I wonder what they've got planned for us this time," said Sakura.

Tenten, true to her competitive spirit declared, "Bring it."

Calculus went on as normal. She and Gaara shared a few laughs about Naruto and Hinata. According to Gaara, Naruto has liked Hinata since midway through last semester. "Well, Hinata is head over heels in love with that boy," said Sophia. "I'm glad to hear he feels the same way. She's been really nervous about today."

"What's going on today?" Gaara asked suspiciously.

"Nothing," she replied, a little too quickly.

Later in Chemistry, the girls sat together, working on their lab. Sophia didn't dare tell Hinata about Naruto's feelings. She had no idea how she would react to that information. She did notice something strange though. People were looking over at their table, pointing and whispering behind her hands. Sophia was starting to become paranoid. It wasn't as though Karin could do anything to her, but the suspense was getting on her nerves. She wanted to know what punishment she picked. The whispering and pointing continued through Japanese, but the students weren't just pointing at Sophia, they were pointing at the rest of the girls too.

Hinata decided to do it at lunch. As soon as she left the group, guess who sat down. Herpes, Gonorrhea, AIDs, Syphilis, and Teen Pregnancy! Or you know their actual names… Karin spoke directly to Sophia, "I suppose you've noticed."

"Your halitosis, yeah, but somehow I feel like you're talking about something else."

"Well, American. I've found out your secret."

"What secret?" Sophia actually had a smile on her face from trying to keep from laughing.

"You're a big fat lesbian."

"Nope."

"EXCUSE ME?"

"I'm not a lesbian." She replied with a straight face.

"Then why are you kissing this girl?" she pulled up the picture on her phone and shoved it in her face. Sophia coughed from the stink of the perfume she must bathe in.

"She was my girlfriend."

"And what you aren't attracted to girls, but you went out with her anyway?"

"No, I like girls, I just like boys too. I'm bi, not a lesbian," she said matter-of –factly. "I also didn't realize that was a secret. I didn't tell you, well mostly because I wasn't sure you were capable of understanding human speech, but also because it's none of your business."

"I think it's my business and the school's business if their students are having sex on school grounds."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"You arrived together to school today, didn't you?"

"Your point?"

"I have it on strong authority that you four slept in the same room last night, and that quiet girl, Hana or whatever was there too."

"Hinata," growled Tenten.

Sophia made a motion to quiet Tenten. "That's not against the school rules."

"Yeah but a room with 5 girls, and at least one of them is a lesbian. What do you think would happen?"

"You're joking right? I'm supposed to believe the school board is going to expel me for a sleepover."

"Who cares about what the school board does? I think what does matter, is how many people have heard this juicy tidbit. Our very own lesbians. I think I'm going to go, or I might catch gay. Bye American, or I suppose I should call you dyke, maybe lezzie. I'm going to think about it. Toodles!" she turned and strutted off.

"That bitch!" spat Ino.

"Oh, don't worry about her. What's going on with Hinata? I haven't been able to see with that cow blocking my view," said Sophia.

They turned to see Hinata running out of the cafeteria, alone.

"Shit! I knew that bastard would hurt her!" cried Tenten.

"Didn't you say yesterday that—," said Ino.

"Never mind that now. We have to go after her," said Sakura. They tracked her to the nearest girls' toilets. She was hyperventilating and had the most confused look on her face. "Sweetheart, what happened?"

"I don't even know. One minute we're talking about what a nice time we had last night and that we should do it again, the next he has a funny expression on his face and he's telling me how good of a friend that I am. Whatever choices I make with my life, he'll always be my friend. I don't understand," Hinata started hyperventilating again. "Does he just pity me, so he's letting me down easy, but he'd never want to go out with someone like me? Is that it?"

"No!" they chorused.

"I think I know what happened. He probably heard the rumors. I'm so sorry guys. I thought she couldn't get to us. I shouldn't have risked getting you on her bad side too," said Sophia, looking at the floor, feeling so guilty.

"Don't feel bad. Singing that song was brilliant! And that bitch makes us miserable just by breathing," Tenten reassured her.

"I really don't understand now," said Hinata.

Sakura calmly explained how the whole school thinks they're all lesbians and that they supposedly engage in lesbian orgies all the time, etc. "So Naruto probably thought that he was telling you how he was okay with you being gay. He wasn't rejecting you at all."

"That doesn't mean that he actually does like me. I can't try telling him now, only to be rejected a second time."

Sophia spoke up, "I guess I should have told you earlier, but I wanted you to make sure that you made the decision to tell him all on your own. This morning, in Calculus, Gaara told me Naruto's liked you since last semester."

Her eyes widened in disbelief. She shook her head like it couldn't be real. "You're just trying to make me feel better. That just can't be true."

"Why do you think he had a funny look on his face when he told you that he was okay with you being a lesbian, idiot?" Ino spoke now. "He was so clearly disappointed. He hoped you liked guys. He really hoped you liked him."

"I just can't deal with this right now."

"Let's take you to Shizune. You just had a pretty severe anxiety attack and you're still shaken up. I'm sure she'll let you go home," said Sophia.

"What about Naruto?" she asked.

"We'll deal with the rest," Tenten assured her. "Don't you worry."

So this had payback from the bad girls. opposite of what I intended, but my plan for them is still in formation, and I really wanted them slinging insults at each other. Also, since one of my genres is romance, I should do some of that rather than really depressing crap. Of course the other one is humor, and it's not funny at all, so yeah... Like I said, I didn't really proofread, so if anything is unclear or doesn't make sense, please tell me.
I really appreciate reviews sooo...

Thanks to: iluvninjas, sayuri'suzanna'inuzuka4ever, naruto1305, Shadow-Ninja-Captain69, and BrookieHyuga for reviewing. I really appreciate it!
