Chapter tree – Practice

It knocked at the door at room 301. Sakura groaned down in her pillow. It knocked again.

"What?"

"Sakura, it's me. May I enter?"

"Ah, of course, just come in.."

"I can't. I need your key card!"

"Mmmm... coming!"

Sakura slowly got up from her be and walked through the room. As she found the key card, she looked at the clock. It said 07:30,

"Shit!"

The lock klicked and the door got up.

"Morning bed head!" Shizune grinned, when she saw Sakura.

"It's not fun, Chi-chi! Hurry up and tell me what you want, 'cuz I'm kinda late!"

"Realax Saku, they've just called from the school to tell that it's closed for today, so you have a day off!!"

"Oh!" Sakura's mouth formed a perfect 'o' "how come?"

"It looks like some kids sat it on fire tonight."

"Ah."

"Saku-chan, are you sick or something? I'd exepted that you'd be more happy than that."

"I am happy, just tired. I sat up the half night, writing on a song for our new CD." She groaned.

Shizune laughed at her as she groggily made her way to the bathroom to brush her teeth.

"Your friends yesterday seemed nice." Temari said. She sat on the comfortable black, leather sofa in Sakura's hotel room.

"Yearh.." Sakura answered. She laid in her bed on her stomatch, seeming lost in her own thoughts.

"But I can't help to think about the black haired male, whatever his name was." Temari watched her friend coming back to reality, looking at her with wide, shocked eyes. Temari laughed at her reaction. "Relax Sakura. I'm not going to take him. I just wondered what had happended between the two of you? You kept looking at each other when the other was not looking.

Sakura sighted. "I don't know. Back when I lived here four years ago, we were like best friends and I had a huge crush on him! We desided to make a band together with Naruto and Neji. You know-" She smiled a warm smile to Temari "I have always wanted to become a famous singer. Well, but not long time after we had desided to become a band, Shizune and I moved to Suna, and I haven't seen them since!"

"But you still like him." It was not a question, but a statement.

Sakura nodded down in her pillow. "I just don't know what to do! I'm sure he doesn't like me. Maybe he did, but that was four years ago! I'm sure he doesn't even consider me as a friend anymore!"

"I'm sure he does! Now, why don't we find my lazy brothers and begin practicing? I mean; We are holding our first concert in Konoha in just five days!"

"I'm in!"

"Let's take a pause. We have all done a good job and I need five minutes of rest."

"'kay!" "Fine." "Yay!"

"Okay, we have four days left until the show so I think we should practice as often as possible!" Sakura said, opening her cherry cola.

Her three friends and bandmembers all agreed to this.

"Well then, let's toast for our first upcoming concert in Konoha!"

They all toasted.

Well, I nedda go now, I promised Ino that we should go shopping. See ya!" She rose and walked out of the hotel to meet Ino, who already was there. They hugged each other and began walking towards the mall.

"Okay, I need some new shoes to match the blue dress my father gave me last week, a new pink nail polish, the new Shugo Chara book and probably some new clothes too." Ino happily exclaimed.

"Uh.. I don't really need anything, so I'll just look around." Sakura lamely explained.

"Are you sick? You don't need anything?" Ino looked closer at her friend. She did actually look a bit pale.

"I'm fine." Sakura assured Ino. "Let's go looke at the shoes first, shall we?" She said to make Ino focus on something else than her health.

"Sounds fine! I actually saw some yesterday over in.." Sakura smiled. It was so easy to distract Ino.

"So, tell me everything that has happened since last time!" Sakura demanded. "Who is dating who, who is the enemy and who is the new leader of the fangirls? I heard the last one got arrested by trying to enter Neji's bedroom in the middle of the night." They were in the manga and anime store. Ino shot a look at Sakura over the Death Note she was scanning through.

"Tenten and Neji have been dating for four months. David and Katie have been dating, but they broke up after Katie maked out with Ryo to a party. The there is Dana and Fred, Trudy and Mike, Will and Maria and Ria and Stephen." Ino said, counting each couple on her fingers. The new leader of the fangirls as a new Girl named Karin." She spat the name as if it were venom. "And of course she's the enemy. She's even more annoying than Tanya was."

Sakura had been nodding along, even though she didn't know half of the persons. "Are you done soon? I am to meet the others in the dinning room in the hotel seven o'clock."

"Yes, I am done now." Ino sighted. " I think I'll buy this too." She closed the Death Note she had been reading. "I can't help it; Mello is too hot in this, not to buy it."

"You like Mello?"

"Of course! I mean.. in the start he just seemed like a wierdo, but after he got the scar and his hair changed a bit he came in on my TTLOHMG!" She exclaimed! (TTLOHMGTop Ten List Over Hot Manga Guys!)

"Sure sure, but I still think L's more hot. It would be nice to be able to eat that much candy without getting fat!"

"L is hot, He's just not hotter than M! End of disscussion!"

Sakura chuckled. "Fine fine, now let's go. We need to be a the hotel in twenty minutes! Did you want to join us for dinner?"

"Actually, there is twenty two minites, and yes, i would like to. She half mocked -half grinned.

"Then let's go! Now we have only twenty one minute, so let's hurry!"

"Okay!" Ino grinned and the two best friends began going home, chatting about which manga guys were hot, and which wasn't.
