Calling All Boys

Chapter: 12

Ino's Dairy

Dear dairy,

I almost couldn't get to sleep last night, I was so worried about Temari. But when I woke this morning I decided to concentrate on the dance. If this was going to be the last night of my life, at least I would be prepared for it!

Including being well-dressed. I decided to wear my short-sleeved powder blue shift with my black patent leather sling-back shoes.

"Very swank," Hinata said.

You should have seen Hinata's outfit a blue chiffon dress with matching high hell pumps. Her hair was closed in a bun with a tiny dark blue velvet bow clip.

"Well?" Hinata asked me, twirling around our room. "What do you think?"

"Very….Cute!" I said with a smile.

"T-thanks!" said Hinata cheerily.

Getting dressed was fun and it took my mind off my real worry. Coming face to face with Temari!

What would Temari say when she saw me at the dance with Shikamaru? And worse what would she do? Would she carry out her threat and make me friendless?

Sakura had headed off to the dace early, so Hinata and I walked out together. We ran into Akari on the main path leading to the gym. The path was filled with kids. I looked around. Was one of them Temari?

"Hey, you guys. Let's not walk on the path!" I suggested. "Let's take the long way!"

Akari and Hinata looked at me as if I were from Mars.

"You mean across the field?" Hinata complained. "But it's covered with snow and slush!"

"And no way are we wearing rubber boots tonight," Akari said. She lifted her foot to show her black patent leather platform shoe.

"Oh, come on. It'll be fun," I said. "How often do we get to walk through the snow -under the stars?"

Hinata's eyes lit up. "When you put it that way, it does sound awfully romantic," she said. "Let's do it, Akari."

"Oh, all right," Akari groaned under her breath. But she came with us as we skipped over slush puddles and climbed over the snow. And Temari was nowhere in sight.

"This dance is going to be a blast!" Akari said as we neared the gym. "And I can get used to asking boys out."

"Definitely," Hinata said, stomping snow off of her pumps. "If you ask me, Sadie Hawkins was a real crusader for women's rights. Wouldn't you agree, Ino?"

"Sure," I said. But I really wasn't paying attention. I was still busy worrying about Temari.

Maybe Sakura is right, I thought. Temari must know by now that I didn't break off my date with Shikamaru. So she must have found another boy ask to the dance. And maybe she'll like him so much she'll forget all about being mad at me. Maybe.

Once inside, Hinata and I hung up up my coat in the foye. I glanced around for Temari. I knew I would run into her sooner or later. Hopefully later. Much, much later!

"Hi, Ino," A boy's voice said.

I spun around. It was Shikamaru, looking very dressed up in tan pants and a navy blue blazer.

"Hi, Shikamaru!" I said, my mouth dropping open. He looked C-U-T-E! So cute that for a moment I forgot all about Temari!

"Want to go inside?" Shikamaru asked while smirking. He pointed to the gym lazily. "The band started playing."

"Sure," I answered.

Shikamaru and I walked into the gym. Some kids were already dancing in two long lines to a country band.

"Whoa!" Shikamaru groaned and shook his head. "No way can I do the dance."

"Oh yes you can!" I teased. I grabbed a plastic cowboy hat from a table and plopped it on Shikamaru's head. "Just think of it as the electric slide with cowboy hats."

We fell into the line and copied what everyone else was doing. I wanted to dance with Shikamaru all night. Until I spotted a girl who looked like Temari.

And I jolted me back to reality. What was I doing? Was I really at a square dance with someone else's boyfriend?

"Ino, what's up?" Shikamaru yelled over the music.

My mouth felt dry. How could I tell Shikamaru the truth? Then again, how could I not?

"Uh, Shikamaru," I said, "Temari told me something about you last week. And I kind of thought it wasn't true but now I'm kind of worried that it was-"

"Don't tell me, let me guess," Shikamaru said. He began to snicker. "She told you about the time I put bubble gum on her seat in first grade?"

I wrinkled my nose. "No."

"Then she told you about the she was running for third grade president," Shikamaru said. "And I drew a mustache and horns on her campaign poster?"

Bubblegum? Mustache and Horns? This guy was worse than Kiba!

"No, no," I said. "Temari told me she had a boyfriend at Konoha Academy. And that boy was you."

There. I said it. And it felt a lot better once it was out. Sort of like splinter.

Shikamaru stared at me. Then he laughed so hard I could see the fillings in his teeth. "Give me a break!"he shouted. "Temari isn't my girlfriend. I'm her friend, that's all. And knowing Temari, I'm sure she found someone else to ask to the dance."

I felt a smile slowly spreading across my face. "Really?" I asked.

"Really," he said, flashing me an incredible smile.

I was so happy I wanted to give Shikamaru a huge hug. But it was our first date.

We were having great time. And Shikamaru was such a gentleman. He even went to the snack table to get us both punch. That's when Nozumi Reika came over looking very serious.

"Don't think you're off the hook, Ino," Nozumi said. She folded her arms across her chest. "Because you're not."

"Off the hook?" I asked, surprised. "What are you talking about, Nozumi?"

"Lucky for you Temari couldn't come to the dance," Nozumi said. "She's in bed with Tasmanian Flu."

The flu! So that explained why I hadn't seen Temari all night.

"How is Temari?" I asked. "Does she have fever?"

"As if you care," Nozumi snorted. "You didn't care when you went to the dance with Temari's bf. She told me she's never going to forget it and I don't blame her!"

Nozumi flipped her hair over her shoulder and turned around. Then she began to walk away.

"Nozumi wait!" I called.

I wanted to tell her what Shikamaru told me.

As I watched Shikamaru come over with two cups of strawberry punch I felt sick. Real sick!

And it wasn't the Tasmanian Flu!

Sakura's Dairy

Dear dairy,

Well, I found out what all dateless girls do at the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance. They serve refreshements! Another Konoha Academy tradition, I guess.

My adventures in chips-and-dip began at six thirty sharp. That's when I reported for duty. I was glad to see I had company. Three other girls.

While we waited for Mrs. Tsunade to come and gave us the drill, we watched the Fifth and Sixth Form girls put last touches on the decorations.

"Well!" Mrs. Tsunade said when she saw us. "How are my little Sadie Ladies?"

Sadie Ladies? I guess that's another name for the Dateless Four.

"Now, then," Mrs. Tsunade said. She reached into a shopping bag. "Since this is a square dance, I'd like you all to dress accordingly."

I stared as Mrs. Tsunade handed out plastic cowboy hats and red Bandannas. I rolled my eyes. How cute.

Then Mrs. Tsunade peered at a clipboard. "We need one person to be in charge of the puch bowl, another to stack paper plates and cups, one to supervise the chips and dips and last but not least, someone to line up the soda bottles and other beverages."

"I'll do that, Mrs. Tsunade," I volunteered. I had lots of practice lugging soda bottles up to our attic.

I rolled up my sleeves and got to work. In fact, I really got into it. I had all bottles lined up on the table according to flavor. Cola, orange, grape, cream and soda. I was about to tackle the chocolate milk when I felt someone tap my shoulder.

"Excuse me," a boy's voice said.

Holding a container of milk, I glanced over my shoulder. A boy with black hair and black eyes was standing behind me. He still had his jacket on.

"Is this the snack table?" he asked.

"It is," I explained. "But we're not ready yet."

"That's okay," he said. "I'm here to help out."

Help out? I mean such cute and handsome boy didn't got a date. Oh well

"My name is Sakura Haruno," I introduced. "What's your name?"

"My name is Sasuke Uchiha," the boy said. "I'm new at Konoha Academy."

I culdn't believe it. Sasuke was adorable how did Ino and I miss him?

"Hi," I told Sasuke. "Why don't you hang up your jacket and start opening cracker boxes?"

"Gotcha," Sasuke said. He began taking off his jacket. That's when I flipped. Underneath Sasuke's jacket was a navy blue Cubs sweatshirt!

"You like the Cubs?" I asked.

"Yep" said Sasuke

I plunked my container on the table. "I'm Cubs fan too," I said.

"My favorite sundae is Freaky Fudge," Sasuke said.

"Mine too!" I cried. "With three scoops and extra sprinkles!"

Then it occurred to me. Sasuke didn't have a date. And neither did I.

"Hey, Sasuke?" I asked, tilting my head. "How would you like to go to the dance?"

"We are at the dance," Sasuke said with a shrug.

"No, no!" I laughed. "I mean go to the dance with me. It is Sadie Hawkins Day, you know."

"You mean a date?" Sasuke asked, his voice cracking.

"I think that's what they call it," I joked.

"Sure, thanks," Sasuke said, smirking. "But what about the snack table?"

I grabbed the cracker boxes and put them next to the guacamole.

"Job's done!" I said. I whipped off my goofy hat and smiled. "Now let's party on!"

We squeezed through a crowd of kids. I was about to look for Ino when I spotted someone I knew on the dance floor. It was Hyunga Hinata, and she was dancing with this really cute guy. My eyes popped wide open as I looked closer the cute guy was… Uzamaki Naruto!

I hardly recognized Naruto.

You should've seen them dance. They looked as if they'd been practicing for years!

OKAY, I GUESS I judged Naruto a little too quickly. I mean, he may not know much about

The Cubs but he is really smart and he sure can dance!

And you know what so can I! "Let's dance!"

He pointed to Naruto and Hinata. "You mean- like that?"

"We can try," I said.

Soon Sasuke and I were square dancing side-by-side with Naruto and Hinata. And having a blast!

When I finally spoted Ino I could see was having a great time with Shikamaru. Especially since Temari was nowhere in sight!

All I can say is Sadie Hawkins sure knows how to throw a dance. Yeeeee-haaaa!

Done! Alright everyone sorry for not updating soon but I was busy preparing test and I need to get more than 60% so that I don't attend summer camp I really hate it! -_-

Oh well next Chapter will be the last one
