Calling All Boys

Chapter: 10

Ino's Dairy

Dear dairy,

Two whole weeks and I still haven't broken off my date with Shikamaru. And the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance is creeping on me!

Having Temari in my face doesn't make it easier. Today in Maths class she passed me a note. It said, DID YOU BREAK THE DATE YET? She must have wanted to know pretty bad because she added five question marks.

"I couldn't get near a phone, Temari!" I told her after class. "The line was too long."

"What about your cell phone?" Temari asked.

I stuck my chin in the air. "Miss Kiyomi told Sakura and me never to use our cell phone again."

So there.

Temari let out a big sigh. "Then why don't you just jump the line to phone?"

"Are you serious?" I asked. "I could never steal someone's place on the phone."

I thought I saw flames shooting from Temari's eyes as she glared at me.

"Why not?" she asked through her teeth. "You already stole my boyfriend."

"Temari-"

"You'd better call Shikamaru soon, Ino,"Temari said. "Or your only friend here at Konoha Academy will be your best friend."

Temari spun on her heel and walked down the hall.

"Boy. Do I need Dad and Mom now!" I muttered under my breath.

The truth is I would use the cell phone to break off the date this is definitely an emergency. But I still can't do it. Shikamaru is the neatest guy I ever met. How can I break a date with a guy like that?

So here's my choice: no Shikamaru or no friends'.

I can live without a boyfriend for now, but I can't live without friends NO WAY!

I guess that's my decision. I'll sneak a call to Shikamaru and break the date. It won't be easy, but at least I won't have Temari on my back anymore.

Whoops I just remembered my Oliver Twist report is due tomorrow. And if I don't write it right now, I'll have someone else on my back. Ms. Anko!

Sakura's dairy

Dear dairy,

Just got back my first math quiz. When Mr. Gaku handed it back to me, I saw this gigantic "O" written in red on the top. My hands shook as I stared at the paper. "Z-zero?" I stammered. "No way!"

"On the contrary," Mr. Gaku said. "It's an 'O' for outstanding. You got all the answers right, Sakura."

Outstanding? Me? I wanted to draw a happy face inside that big wonderful O. wait until my tutor gets a load of this. And guess what? Mr. Gaku explained that you don't even get F's at Konoha Academy. Instead you get an NHfor "Need Help."

"It's all part of the Konoha grading system," Mr. Gaku said.

Fine with me. Not that I plan to get any NH's. although there is something I need help with right now. Nope. It's not English. Or science. Or history. It's BOYS!

I know what you're thinking . if I don't want to go to the dance with Naruto, why don't I just secretly pick up the cell phone, call him, and tell him.

Well, I did! Almost.

There I was with the cell phone in my hand and ready to call Naruto when it hit me. Maybe he's really looking forward to going to the dance with me. Maybe he doesn't realize we have nothing in common. The last thing I want to do is hurt is feelings. I mean, it's not his fault we have nothing to talk about!

Expect now I'm back to square one. Did Sadie Hawkins have these problems? I don't think so!

Ino's Dairy

Dear dairy,

So I finished Oliver Twist again. It was hard enough re-reading the whole book along with Ms. Anko's other assignments. But when it came time to write the report I choked. And I had just 666666666666666666666666666one day to do it, too!

Back home I would have asked Dad or Mom for help, but this isn't home. It's the Konoha Academy and I am on my own!

"Ms. Anko wants a theme. A theme!" I said to myself. I was sitting on my bed surrounded by my notebooks and my paperback copy of Oliver Twist. "Whatever happened to plain old book reports?"

"Ino?" Hinata asked from behind her screen.

I felt myself blush. "Oh, was I talking out loud? Sorry. I'll put a lid on it."

"N-no!" Hinata said. She peeked out from behind the screen and smiled. "I-I have an i-idea f-for a t-theme. For your E-english paper."

"You do?" I asked.

Hinata nodded. "Why don't you compare O-oliver to kids today?"

"But how?" I asked. "Oliver lived more than one hundred and fifty years ago. Practically ancient history!"

Hinata came out from behind the screen and smiled. "Kids weren't that different back then. I-I mean look at Oliver. H-he missed his mother. He had p-peer preasure."

"Oh," isaid, nodding slowly. "Oh yeah."

I suddenly knew where Hinata was going with this. I missed my mom and dad. And I had peer preasure too Temari!

"I guess Oliver wasn't that different from us," I said. "He even went to boarding school."

"But we don't eat gruel," Hinata giggled. "Just Ramen!"

I jumped off my bed and gave Hinata a hug.

"Thanks, Hinata," I said. "You just did me an awesome favor. I wish I could do a favor for you."

I sat back on my bed and tried to think of ways I could repay Hinata. I could lend her my clothes. Nah.

I could take her to a movie. Nah. She likes foreign movies and ihate substitles.

There must be something in this world I could do for Hinata. Wait! I've got it!

"Hinata?" I asked, sitting up. "How would like me to sneak a call to the Konoha Boys?"

Hinata looked at me. "W-what f-for?"

"The Sadie Hawkins Day Dance is in two days," I said. "Is there ther any boy you'd like me to ask for you?"

Hinata started pacing back and forth.

That was dumb question, I thought. Hinata is into books and poetry and is shy. She has other things to do besides-

"T-there i-is!" Hinata said blushing furiously.

"Who?" I asked her, jumping off my bed. "Who?"

" T-there's o-only o-one boy at Konoha Academy who I-I-I l-like," Hinata whispered. "H-he reads poetry. And e-even plays a classical instrument."

"There's a guy like that at Konoha? I asked, wrinkling my nose.

"Y-y-yes," Hinata said. "His name is Uzamaki N-naruto!"

"Uzamaki Naruto?" I gasped. "You mean the guy in the yearbook with the Orange jacket?"

"That's h-him." Hinata sighed softly. "He's the only boy at Konoha Academy who's just l-like m-me.

Hinata's smile turn into a frown. "But I can't ask him o-o-out," she said blushing furiously. " Because s-somebody beat m-me to h-him. You Best Friend, Sakura."

I grinned from ear to ear. Sakura finally had an out. All she to do was pass Naruto on to Hinata. And all I had to do was find Sakura and tell her the good news.

"Guess what, Hinata?" I asked. "You are about to ask Uzamaki Naruto to the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance."

"R-really?" Hinata asked. "How?"

"Let's just say that one favor deserves another," I said with a smile.

"G-great," Hinata said. "Oh, and I-ino. Can you do me one more favor?"

"What?" I asked.

"Can you quit using that Strawberry glitter lotion?" she asked. "It's like living with Tinker Bell!"

"It's a deal," I said.

So here's the plan. First, I've got to find Sakura and tell her good news. Second, I'm going to finish my Oliver Twist report. And Third, I'm going to sneak a call to Shikamaru tomorrow and break off our date once and for all!

Oh, yeah,, and there's a fourth….

I'VE GOT TO FIND ANOTHER DATE- FAST!

Sakura's Dairy

Dear dairy,

Boy, am I off the hook! Ino told me that her roommate Hinata has a crush on Naruto. I guess there's somebody for everybody in this world!

Hinata was in my room when I made the call. "Hi, Naruto," I said into my phone. "It's me, Sakura."

"Sakura!" Naruto gushed. "I was just practicing the tango for the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance."

"The tango?" I said. "But Naruto it's a square danc. You know western stuff."

"I know!" Naruto said. "But there are cowboys in Argentina. They're called gauchos!"

I looked up at the ceiling and sighed. I could see Hinata from the corner of my eye. She wasn't jumping up and down or bitting her nails. She was just eyeing me, real serious.

"Listen, Naruto, there's something I want to discuss with you," I said. "When I invited you to the dance I didn't know that we don't have all that much in common. I mean, I live for sports, and you live for the organ and …. Edgar Allan Poe. So I don't think we should go to the dance together."

Dead silence. Uh-oh Naruto's feelings were hurt!

"You… don't?" Naruto gulped.

"No. but I have really great news,too," I added quickly. "Because there's someone here who's absolutely nuts about you. Her name is Hyunga Hinata."

"Hey, I know who Hinata is," Naruto said. "She writes excellent poetry. And her clothes are kind of cool, too.

"Then you like her?" I asked.

"I guess so," Naruto answered.

I smiled at Hinata. She smiled back.

"Cool," I said to Naruto. "I'll put her on the phone. Here she is."

Hinata took the phone and talked for long time. I blinked hard. I knew that was from Romeo and Juliet. I also knew that all that sappy talk was making me sick! But hey, it worked.

"it's a date," Hinata said as she clicked off the phone. "Naruto is going to the dance with me."

"Congratulations," I said.

"But what about you?" Hinata asked, concerned. "Which boy will you ask to the dance?"

Good question. Especially since I had no other classes with the boys this week.

"No problem," I answered. "I'll just sneak another phone call to the Konoha Boys dorm and get another date."

But not tonight. There's a hockey game in the T.V room that I must watch. I'll call tomorrow after classes.

DONE! Hope you like it. I really feel sorry for Sakura ;( but oh well let's see what happens next if curious stay tuned ;)
