CHAPTER 7:
I woke up that morning with a strong arm around me. I got up slowly and quietly making sure not to wake him. I got dressed in my usual purple kimono and hit the streets. I kept think to myself about what happened last night the Photo Album the kiss it was starting to get annoying that all these things happen and I can barely remember any of it. I was only walking five minutes when I see a familiar blonde hair knuckle head appear waving me down.
"Hey Temari! What are you doing up so early?"
"Well I thought I would go on a walk to clear my head. I said. There was no need to tell a lie it's not like he knew what happened last night.
"Well hey mind if I walk with you I was going to go get some Ramen would you like to join me?" He asked me.
"Sure, why not." I said to him with a slight smile. We walked around a bit he talked mostly with me inputting one word answers. We finally get to the Ramen shop. He orders a bowl of ramen same with me. He was quite for about two minutes until he started showering me with questions.
"How are you liking you stay here, Do you really not remember anything, how's your stay with Shikamaru, you guys aren't doing anything dirty are you, do you like your ramen?" And many more. I chuckled.
"You really don't know how to shut up do you?" He gave me a really angry look that just made me laugh harder. "I'm liking my stay I'm actually looking forward to meeting all these new people…er…well meting them again." I took a bite of ramen.
"Don't worry Temari. You will be fine these konha girls get so angry about things but it will die down. Just you wait!" He gave me a sincere and optimistic smile. "Well I got to go for now. But you're coming to the party tonight right?" He asked.
"Uh..what party?" I asked him confused.
"Theres a party tonight ask Shikamaru about it he can give you more details. Thanks for the ramen!" With that he ran away. It wasn't until later I saw he didn't pay for his ramen. That damn kid. Making me pay for his ramen and he was the one who invited me. Just wait he'll get pay back in no time. I laid down my money, thanked the old man, and started my stroll. At least he invited me to a party but what party didn't we just all hang out at his house the other night? Man I wonder if anyone's up. I kept walking in thought until I reached a house but not just any house it was huge. Like a mansion and it had other complexes next to it. I was so intrigued I took a peak behind the fence. I saw two figures fighting they looked really familiar and that when it hit me it was Neji and Hinata. It looked like they were training. Hmm I wonder if they need any help. I thought to myself. So I walked in the front gate. "Hey, Hinata, Neji!" I called to them. They were so focused on there training that I just sat down under a tree and watched them. It was so amazing the way they moved. There byakugan was un believable knowing each Chakara points. They continued until Hinata tripped and fell. Neji helped her up.
"I think its time for a break." He said. "You're getting a lot better though." Hinata smiled and glanced at me.
"He-hey Temari." I could barely hear her. Neji looked over his shoulder at me.
"Hello Temari." He said I had a feeling that was all he was going to say.
"So this is the infamous Hyuga Clan establishment." I said with Awe. "So Hinata you wanted to speak to me? Sorry I didn't get to you yesterday." There was a pause.
"Ye-Yes Its okay." She said and Neji left saying nothing.
"Hm well isn't he a man of many words." I said sarcastically. She giggled a little. "So, did you hear about this party going on tonight?" She smiled and blushed.
"Ye-yeah, Naruto Kun Sa-said he was Ta-Taking me." I smiled in amusement at her fondness of that knuckle head. "Are you going Te-Temari?" I pondered for a moment. Then smiled.
"Yeah maybe depending…" I trailed off.
"Depending on if Shikamaru asks you?" She smiled. Looks like this timid little girl knew how to play the game.
"Heh. I don't know that he will though. I know everything that happened Hinata." She gave a serious look.
"Temari I just want you to know that I'm not your enemy and Tenten isn't either. Ino and Sakura there very hard headed girls much like you. No offense. But if you go to that party you could have a chance to make right with them. I know they chased you out of the village but that doesn't mean anything. Temari you are great kunochi who could probably kick anyone's ass. But try not to do anything rash or they might get the wrong idea. You are a wonderful person they are just blinded with their own ignorance." I was stunned. This Purple hair shy girl turned to actually be strong. I smiled at her
"Thanks Hinata. Don't worry I'll be careful about things. After all both villages are allied and we wouldn't want anything to happen because of some silly drama." She smiled at me and went back to her shy ways. "D-do you think yo-you could help me pick out an ou-outfit for the party?" I chuckled. Yeah sure Let me go back to make sure I'm actually going." I gave her a little wink and with that I left.
When I arrived at Shikamaru's house it looked like no one was home. Luckily I knew where the hidden key was. When I opened the door I was almost hit with a kunai.
"Nice Dodge." I could hear the familiar Shikamaru's voice. I threw a punch at him but he dodged it as well.
"What the hell was that for?" I screamed at him. He put his hands in defense.
"Sorry I thought you were a stranger breaking in."
"You had all the lights off it didn't seem like anyone was home!"
"True but you should still knock it can confuse a guy."
"Oh whatever." I said with a pout. He smirked.
"So did you hear about the party?"
"Yeah I did. Naruto and Hinata told me about it." I said trying not to show my relief.
"Well um you want to..um.. uhg.. This is so troublesome. Do you want to go with me?" He scratched his head. It was time to mess with him a little bit.
"Hmm… I don't know. It seems like a lot of work to get ready for a party. But I mean if you really want me to…" I smirked.
"Tch. Fine whatever if you don't want to go you don't have to." He said looking away but I could see a little disappointment.
"Haha. I'm just joking with you yeah I'll go." And with that I started to walk out the door. But he stopped me.
"Wait where are you going you just got here."
"Yeah but I told Hinata I would help her get ready if I was going." I smiled seeing his dumbfound look and walked out the door.
When I got to Back to the Hyuga Establishment I found Hinata still training with Neji. "Come on you guys have been training enough it's time to take a break. Besides Neji don't you want to also get ready for Tenten." With that He halted, Turned to me, Looked at the clock above me, Bowed at Hinata, and then ran away in such a hurry only a second went by and he was gone. Hinata giggled.
"How did you know Neji and Tenten were going together?"
"Just a hunch." I smiled. "Now let's try to find you something. Okay wait what kind of party is it I actually wasn't given any specifics." She looked surprised.
"We are having a camp party. We are going camping. And the best part is it's not a mission so we can actually enjoy it and not be paranoid the whole time." She seemed so happy about it. But it made me wonder why she wanted my help to look for an outfit.
"Okay that's all fine. But why do you need my help? Wear a pair of shorts and a flannel shirt and make sure you wear comfy and warm pajamas." She looked at me and turned as red as my sash. She looked like she was about to faint so I sat her down. "Now Hinata what do you really need help with?" She turned to me.
"I-I N-Need uhh… umm.. So-something se-se-se-sexy to to we-wear." She sighed with relieve that she finally said it. I laughed even though I barely understood her stammering and muttering
"Haha Oh that makes more since. Is it for Naruto?" I smiled she turned even redder. Should've known.
It took us a while to find something because with almost everything I showed her she about died with embarrassment. Finally I got back to Shikamaru's again and tried to pack for the camping. Should I pack something like Hinata maybe…And without any further question I shoved some stuff into my bag. Shikamaru was waiting for me he was wearing a muscle shirt with a flannel and a pair of jeans it almost matched me except I was wearing shorts.
"Finally all you troublesome women take forever to get ready." And with that I smacked him across his head. We didn't walk too far as we reached some woods. He smiled.
"I have to go feed the deer if you want to come you can or you can go to the camp site."
"The deer? Wait is this the infamous Nara Clans Woods?" I was so surprised I knew I remembered the name Nara from somewhere but not from this silly drama but because of what I read in books I always wanted to go I heard it was one of the most peaceful and beautiful places. He gave me a smirk.
