Chapter 1 of 2! Enjoy :]


Sasuke scowled into the cold morning air, an unlit cigarette dangling from his lips. He shoved his black leather-gloved hands into the deep pockets of his long Marc Jacobs trench coat, watching as the sky slowly became pink and orange as the sun rose. It was February, just a week and a half before the actual wedding was to take place. But, Hinata and the rest of the "Rookie Nine" had to fly in earlier because most of them had to be/ or were part of the actual wedding and needed to prepare. Unfortunately, they were supposed to have been gone twenty minutes ago and they were still waiting for Shikamaru and Temari to show up.

Hinata sighed, her breath coming out a puff of white vapor. "Gaara-san, did you call Temari-chan?"

"Yes, Subaku, did you call you lazy-ass sister?" Sasuke snapped, Hinata turning to shoot him a pinched look that he blatantly ignored.

Gaara crossed his arms over his long khaki toggle-button coat, a frown gracing his full lips. "Yes, I did. In fact, I called her twenty minutes ago and she said she was on her way."

Kankuro rolled his eyes, shoving his leather-gloved hands into the pockets of his leather jacket. "Gaara please. We all know it takes her longer than that to get ready. We're going to Aspen-,"

"Technically, no," Hinata sighed again, brushing her dark indigo bangs to the side with her black leather-gloved hand. "We'll be staying at the resort in Aspen. You'll have to pay and everything to go skiing and such, but Aspen isn't actually the resort. The actual wedding will take place about a mile or so away from the resort, which I hope is good enough for Temari-chan. It's got a direct view of the mountains, just like she was asking for, or I think was asking for."

"Whatever," Ino rolled her sky-blue eyes, crossing her arms and popping a hip in her winter white long fur coat, which Akamaru was growling at. "She's taking forever. If she had just packed ahead of time, like normal people do, when you told her to, we wouldn't be standing here in this God forsaken weather!" She shook her head, her platinum blond ponytail swishing. "My hair is freezing, dammit!"

"It's called a blow-dryer," Sasuke snapped as Naruto snickered, glaring at her. "Maybe if you weren't so broke from buying all those damned designer brands, you would be able to afford one."

"Shut up!" Ino snapped, scowling darkly. "At least I don't take advantage of poor Hinata-kun and her kindness! I know you only asked her to move in with you so you could have someone to clean up after your lazy ass!"

"You what?" Naruto and Kiba shot him dangerous looks "Are you taking advantage of Hina-kun?"

"No, he isn't," Hinata stared all of them down, her voice pinched and icy, her pale lavender eyes narrowed. "Now, if you would please be so kind as to drop the subject, and focus on the fact that we need everyone on the same team for this work. This is Temari-chan and Shikamaru-kun's wedding. We should be happy for them." Her eyes shifted to the distance, where a black Lincoln Navigator was driving up. "That's should be them right now."

Temari slipped out with Shikamaru right after her, carrying their things to the plane, a broad smile on her face as she approached them. "Hi, guys! I am so sorry we're late! I was taking a shower and I guess it took a little-,"

"That's not the point," Kankuro snapped, glaring down at her, shivering in the morning air. "We've been out here for twenty goddamn minutes waiting for your lazy ass to get here! We're cold, hungry, tired and not in the mood for you excuses, Temari!"

Hinata sighed, giving him a forced smile. "Thank you, Kankuro-san." She cast Temari a disapproving glance before turning towards the long staircase to the private jet. "Once everything is loaded on, we can leave. I have a few things to run over before we hit Aspen, so be prepared. I hope everyone had a good night's sleep."

The followed mumbles and shuffling of feet were all she heard as she climbed up the stairs. Making a mental attendance check, she smiled as everyone sat down on the taupe leather seats, the red velvet walls popping against the neutral color. So far, so good. She hoped that with this, everything would go as planned and she could even get Temari to a spa in time.

Then something clicked.

"Dammit!" she cursed under her breath as she rushed into the cockpit and told the pilot to hold on before throwing on her coat and walking outside. Just as she suspected, a wine-red Audi Q5 pulled up to the runway, Hanabi sliding out in a long red velveteen pea coat, her auburn hair up in a high ponytail.

"Hanabi!" Hinata puffed, her eyes narrowed in the cold as she held her jacket closed with her gloved hands. "You need to hurry! We need to leave before nine thirty or we'll never get there in time!"

Hanabi smiled up at her from behind a pair of rimless sunglasses. "Relax onee-san! I'm coming, I'm coming!"

Hinata scowled softly in the cold air and taped the pointed-toe of her black leather Christian Louboutin short boots at the top of the stairs. Hanabi rushed up the stairs and into the jet, flashing Hinata an apologetic smile and slipping off her coat, murmuring an excuse. Hinata sighed and slammed the door shut before walking past her younger sister into the cabin

"Now," she clapped her hands, gaining everyone's attention. "We can finally leave." She dropped her coat into the waiting arms of a flight attendant and sank into the comfortable leather loveseat which created the isles of the plane. Sasuke slipped an arm around her shoulders, pulling her close and obeying the no smoking rules Hiashi enforced, even if he wasn't here.

She nestled against him, closing her burning eyes. "I am so tired. I just want to sleep."

"That's why they call it a job," Sasuke rubbed her arm, using his other hand to play with his phone, a favorite past time of his when he couldn't smoke. "You're not supposed to sleep on it."

She sighed against his dark blue sweater. "Then I guess I'm just a bad wedding planner."

He smirked, letting his cheek rest on her shoulder.

"What?" Hinata gave Ino a tired glance as the bubbly blond smiled, nodding her head vigorously.

"Yes!" Ino ducked her head and began rummaging through her cream-and-gold slogan Louis Vuitton carry-on, smiling broadly. She pulled out a corsage made up for white Baby's Breaths and soft blue roses, minty green leaves surrounding the edges, filling the cabin with a sweet, floral scent worthy of the best of expensive perfumes. "I whipped these bad boys up last night and thought they were absolutely adorable! I had to bring them! I thought Temari-kun might like them, to put on the dresses!"

Sakura took one from her spot next to a sleeping Naruto as Ino excitedly passed them out, bouncing gleefully from her seat next to Choji. "They are very beautiful."

Sora sniffed them daintily, sitting next to Shino, careful not to let any pollen fall on her glacier blue poncho. "And they smell exquisite."

Hinata sighed, her shoulders slumping in tired surrender as she looked to Temari. "I can't say no unless you say no, Temari-chan."

Temari cocked her dirty blond head, her sea-foam green eyes glittering questioningly. "I, personally, adore them. It's just a simple matter of the budget and how much this is going to cost."

"Oh, what, you actually care for that thing?" Sasuke snorted, Shikamaru shaking his head beside his fiancé. "You didn't seem to care all the other times, when it was especially important."

"Oh, would you shut up?" Temari snapped, glaring at him, before turning towards Ino. "How much are we talking for this?"

"Nothing," Ino waved her hand through the air, brushing off comment like it was nothing but air. "I've got so many orders coming in for weddings and bouquets; I don't need the extra money. You know, you're a big inspiration for events and such. Ever since it got out that you were having this big wedding up in the mountains, I've been getting more and more orders lately. I guess I should be grateful, huh?"

Hanabi piped up from beside Gaara who was admiring Ino's handiwork, smiling broadly. "I know! I've gotten more orders for wedding dresses! And not even wedding dresses! I'm getting things for like major events and even a few prom dresses! It's incredible!"

"Cool," TenTen smiled at Temari from between Lee and Neji. "That means your wedding is doing a great job of advertising for the rest of us."

Temari smiled at Choji, who sat quietly, holding his corsage. "And what about you, big guy?"

He blinked and blushed, smiling happily. "We've gotten more customers as of lately. Business is booming for my restaurants. Sales have gone up twice as much as well."

Hinata clasped her hands together, beaming around the cabin and feeling a little better about herself and the day. "That's wonderful, everyone! I'm so happy for you all!"

Kiba smiled at Hinata, Akamaru resting at his feet. "It just means Hina-chan's doing a better job of planning than those other expensive punks who call themselves wedding planners."

Lee lifted his complimentary mug of coffee, which must have been his fourth one of the morning. "I propose a toast, to the youthful Hinata-chan! May she always be smiling and full of youth!"

Hinata blushed happily, Sasuke's arm around her waist as she raised her own lemon-yellow with the others (including all the usual sit-out-siders) as they toasted her. At least she could say she was doing her job well, as far as being a friend and wedding planner went.

-

After a seven and half hour flight, they were almost there. Hinata gracefully stretched in her seat, feeling her back pop from the uncomfortable position she had fallen asleep in. As everyone else moaned and groaned, the co-pilot's voice came on over the intercom, snapping them to attention.

"At this time, we need you to buckle up. Prepare for some turbulence."

"Oh man," Kiba groaned, rubbing his neck. "Never again, no matter how comfortable these things look."

Naruto stretched, yawning widely. "Are we there yet?"

Sakura sighed, shoving his face aside. "Go back to sleep, Naruto. We've got another fifteen minutes."

Sasuke rolled his obsidian eyes, buckling his seat belt and leaning back. "Baka."

"Hey, shut up teme!" Naruto twisted in his seat and glared at him. "I heard all about you taking advantage of Hinata-kun! I could tell Kiba and your ass would be dog meat! Game over!"

"Turn around dobe," Sasuke shot him a dry glare. "Your big mouth is disturbing the peace."

Naruto dropped back into his seat, haughtily buckling himself in as the other's snickered/giggled/chuckled around the luxurious cabin.


I do love the sound of their plane. It's very luxurious. When I get older and have tons of money, I'm gonna get one of those planes. And everyone is going to be soooooooo jealous, because it's going to be mine and NOT THEIRS. SO HA! IN YOUR FACES! TO ALL THOSE YOU THOUGHT I COULDN'T AND WOULDN'T MAKE IT AS A GREAT AND ACCOMPLISHED WRITER!

FUCK YOU! -ahem- Excuse my language. I hope you enjoyed :]
