"Sleepover" by Moonlight Music Mistress

NaruHina, SasuSaku, ShikaIno, NejiTen

Xx

Hey, all! I'm sorry I left you with a cliffy the last time I updated this story, but I recently got back into anime and I'm proud to be working on this good ol' fic again! Keep on reading, keep on reviewing! When we left off, Neji kissed Tenten…ooh la la!

Xx

Tenten kissed Neji back, smiling a huge, only-Neji-can-make-me-feel-like-this smile. It was all they could do not to smile as their lips touched. They were so entranced that they didn't even notice the rest of the gang ogling and snickering.

"Hoo, boy! Go get 'er!" Naruto declared, fist-pumping like a champ. "Now we're all coupled up!"

"Mmm," Ino smugly smiled. "I saw this coming. When boys and girls get together, something romantic, even if it's a tiny little thing, is always bound to happen, because love is always in the air." Ino closed her eyes and romantically sighed. (A/N: It's true - I've been down that road. Ino speaks the truth! If you want some romance scandals, hang out with some guys and girls together.)

"…Remind me again why you like her so much," Naruto commented to Shikamaru. Ino whacked him uptop the head. "Shut it, Hinata lover."

"Yes! I do love Hinata-chan, and I'm proud of that! I've liked her for quite some time now, and the thought of her liking me is so outrageous and amazing!"

Hinata blushed madly and smiled a huge smile. She hugged her new boyfriend and said, "Th-thank you, Naruto-kun! I love you, too! I always have, and I always will!"

"Stop all the mush!" Sasuke snarled. Sakura looked at him with a what's-wrong-with-mush-mush-is-sweet expression plastered on her face. Sasuke sighed and planted a teeny kiss on her cheek. Everyone oohed and ahhed, and Sasuke and Sakura happily flushed.

"Anyway! Let's get back to the game!" Sakura smiled. "Sasuke-kun, truth or dare?"

"Dare," he decided.

"Alright. I dare you to scream, 'I LOVE PINK PANTIES!'" as loud as you can. And that's pretty loud; I'm sure. If you wake up somebody, you get bonus points."

"Aren't your panties pink?" Ino asked Sakura. They were best friends, after all. And all best friends know what color their panties are…right?

"That's the whole point…?" Sakura answered as if Ino were stupid.

Sasuke just shrugged. Without a second pause, he wolf-whistled and added a few of his own effects. "DANG, GIRL! I LOVE THOSE PINK PANTIES YOU GOT THERE! YOU'RE LOOKIN' FIIIIIIINER THAN AN AVOCADO ON SATURDAY!"

Sakura was laughing hysterically. "I knew it. I knew it!"

However, they heard a noise stomping down the stairs. They were far too happy to care, though. They were in that mood where everything is hilarious because you're so overtired that you're hyper and peppy and find everything extremely funny. I love that mood.

That same woman from the pool, Kiari, used her cane to step down the stairs. She pressed her wrinkled lips together and shook her free fist at Neji and Hinata. "You rotten kids! If I hear one more scream from your mouth, you'll be hearing from the authorities!"

Sasuke put on his fake emo face and said, "My parents were the authorities. Are you suggesting something here, miss?"

Kiari looked shocked. She recognized him as an Uchiha. "Well, then…just don't scream so much more, or else Hiashi-sama will definitely be hearing from me. And he will be most displeased."

Ino interjected, "Well, he can't be any more angry with us now than he already is, what with the muffin I drew on his forehead and all…"

Kiari just sighed and slowly made her way upstairs. The gang got back into their circle (Tenten on Neji's lap) and continued the game.

"Whatever. Hinata, truth or dare?" Sasuke asked.

"T-truth…" Hinata stuttered, afraid of waking up an Elder.

"What's your strangest obsession ever?"

Hinata blushed. Of all the things she didn't want to be asked, that was definitely at the top of the list. How could she possibly unveil her strangest obsession to all of these people? She was comfortable telling Naruto, but Sasuke? Neji? Ino? Sakura? They wouldn't leave her alone about it!

"Uhm…can I just tell Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked cautiously.

"No, you idiot!" Sasuke growled.

"Don't call her an idiot, teme!" Naruto declared.

"Fight me, baka!" Sasuke snarled.

"STOP THIS! You guys have a random fight every chapter!" Ino yelped. "It gets really aggravating! I don't even know if the readers like it! MMM-chan can't help but add a touch of Sasuke-Naruto hate-love, but it's getting to be out of hand! So shut it!"

"Who's MMM-chan?" asked Sasuke.

"The one who's writing down all of our movements so she can share them with the world."

"Whoever she is, she needs to STOP breaking the fourth wall."

"Agreed."

Now that they finished their conversation, they continued their game. "Hinata!" Sasuke shouted. "Your obsession! Now!"

"Fine," Hinata sighed. "Well, I was obsessed with Twilight for awhile, but…"

"That's not a strange obsession, Hina-chan!" Tenten consoled. "Well, it is, in a way, because it's such a terrible book series, but a lot of teenage girls are obsessed with it. You don't need to be ashamed to admit that."

"Well, yeah…but you didn't l-let me f-finish," Hinata said. "About T-Twilight…I'm obsessed with Charlie Swan…"

"Who?" Neji asked.

"Bella's father," Tenten turned around and answered her boyfriend's question. Neji nodded and Tenten turned back around.

"Y-y-y-yes…I mean, Naruto is m-my boyfriend and a-all…and I love him…but e-everybody has o-one person that they'd b-be with in a f-fantasy world…and i-if I were in Twilight, I-I would be in love with Charlie…unless Naruto entered the world, too…do you get my drift? In e-every fandom, there's a character th-that you'd want to date if you were in that world and n-not your own. Unless the p-person you love in reality e-entered the world…then you'd give u-up on the other, f-fictional person."

Everyone looked at her bug-eyed. "CHARLIE?" Sakura demanded. "Of all people?"

"I told you i-it was a weird obsession!"

"If I were in Twilight and didn't know Sasuke, I'd go for Jasper!" Sakura interjected. "He's just like Sasuke-kun! He's cold, and doesn't talk much…"

"Dude, I can't stand Twilight and all, but what about Edward himself? He's quiet, but he cares so much about the people he loves…" Tenten trailed off.

"Kind of like me?" Neji smirked.

Tenten turned around and kissed his forehead. "Exactly my point."

"What about Jacob? He's just plain hot. Like Shika-kun."

Sasuke, Neji, and Shikamaru sighed. The situation was bittersweet, in a way.

"That's okay, Hina-chan! If I were in Twilight and I didn't know you, I'd date Rosalie!" Naruto declared. "Unless, of course, you entered. Then I'd drop Rosalie like a hot tamale."

"Exactly!" Hinata smiled. She felt happy to unleash her confession. "Ten-chan, truth or dare?"

"Truth!" Tenten cheered.

"O-okay…who was your first kiss? And when? D-details is key!"

Tenten flushed and looked down at the floor.

"Do you mean to tell me that you've kissed other men before me?" Neji snarled.

Tenten sighed weakly. "N-no…I haven't."

Neji smirked. "Good."

"What?" Tenten asked. "Isn't that bad? I'm sixteen years old. I'm supposed to have had my first kiss years ago."

"What are you talking about?" Hinata asked. "My first kiss was just now."

"And me," Neji and Sakura answered in unison.

"Yeah! We're ninjas! We don't have time for that! It's okay, Ten-chan! You know how many fanboys we all have! We could have had our first kisses earlier, but we chose not to!" Sakura cheered.

Tenten smiled. "Great! Wait, though…wait a minute…so, me, Sakura, Neji, and Hinata haven't had our first kisses until tonight. And Naruto and Sasuke had their little makeout session when they were approximately twelve…"

"DON'T EVEN GO THERE," Naruto huffed.

"…then, what about Shikamaru and Ino?"

Shikamaru and Ino quickly flushed, looked at each other, and then looked down at the floor.

Tenten smirked and looked at Sakura, who also smiled, and Tenten asked a question. "Do you mean to tell me that you two have kissed others before tonight and not told us?"

Ino shrugged meekly. "Well, technically…we haven't kissed others before tonight…"

Sakura's eyes got wide. "What are you implying?"

Shikamaru looked at the floor, and then at Ino. "Should I tell them?"

Ino rolled her eyes and sighed. "What the heck. You only live once. Go for it, Shika-kun."

Shikamaru flushed deeper and sighed. "Alright. So…me and Ino have kissed each other before tonight."

Naruto glared at them. "WHAT?" he interjected loudly. "You two have kissed before? How long have you been together?"

Ino nodded. "Yeah…well, technically, we were never really together. But we've kissed a few times here and there, just because…"

Sakura groaned. "And why was I not informed of this?"

Ino responded, "Because you make a huge deal out of everything. And this wasn't a very big deal. So…"

"W…wow," Sasuke said. "That's really low. Even for you, Ino."

"Thanks a lot!" Ino shouted.

"Shut up about it, okay?" Shikamaru moaned. "Forget about it. Let's move on."

"YES," Tenten said. "Truth or dare, Saku-chan?"

"Dare!" the pink-haired girl replied happily.

"Okay…lick the toilet seat!"

Sakura's eyes shot wide open. "Wha…what?"

"You heard her!" Shikamaru laughed.

"Why?"

"Because it's truth or dare?" Ino offered.

"Which one?"

"The one Hiashi-sama did his business on!" Tenten said.

"Grr!" Sakura scowled. "Fine!"

The gang all headed upstairs to the bathroom, where they found the People magazine that Hiashi was reading whilst crapping. They knew because of that, and also because of the smell that was permeating the room, that they'd found the proper toilet.

"What did Hiashi-sama eat?" Neji asked his cousin. Hinata shrugged, embarrassed at her father.

"Whatever it was, it smells disgusting!" Naruto sighed loudly.

"Like you have room to talk!" Sakura snarled, angry at the whole situation.

"Shut it!" Naruto hissed. Sakura melodramatically sighed and said, "Well, here goes."

Slowly, Sakura pulled her hair back and ran her tongue along the toilet.

"That was disgusting!" Sakura announced. "Please, get on with the game!"

"Fine," Naruto said. They went downstairs. "That was uneventful. Your turn."

Sakura said, "Okay. Neji, truth or dare?"

"Truth, after that lovely image I just had of you licking the toilet."

"Can't blame you there. Anyway, who was your first crush?"

"Tenten," Neji nonchalantly muffled as he played with his fingernail. "Who else?"

"Ooh!" the gang giggled. "When did you develop THAT crush?" Ino asked playfully.

Tenten blushed and glanced at her boyfriend from her peripheral vision as she sat on his lap. Neji flushed and smiled a wistful smile.

"I think I've always loved Tenten. Even when I first made eye contact with her, I knew something special happened. And then, when I tried to convince myself otherwise, I failed miserably. So, Tenten, even though you never really knew it, I have always loved you."

All the while, Naruto was singing "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston, emotionally and high notes and all.

"Shut it! You ruined the moment!" Sakura shouted.

"It's okay," Tenten chirped. "Thank you so much, Neji. I've always loved you, too!" With that, the two kissed again.

"Care to get a room?" Sasuke asked.

"Care to shut your face?" Neji retorted.

After that, Neji asked, "Shikamaru, truth or dare?"

"Truth," Shikamaru yawned.

"What's your hidden talent?"

Shikamaru's eyes widened slightly. "Um…"

Ino smacked her forehead. Why did they have to ask that question?

"What's wr-wrong, Ino-chan?" Hinata asked.

"I kind of doubt Shikamaru wants to share his hidden talent," Ino raised her eyebrows and nudged her boyfriend in the shoulder.

"Yeah, I doubt Shikamaru does, either," Shikamaru said.

"It's truth or dare!" Tenten encouraged. "Come on! How bad can it be?"

Ino and Shikamaru sighed. Shikamaru said, "Well…my secret hidden talent is making babies happy."

"…what?" Neji asked.

"You heard him. He's amazing at making babies happy."

"I am," Shikamaru continued. "Ino and I have babysat at daycare together before. I'm not sure how or why we ended up being Mommy and Daddy for the day, but the kids all loved us. They all said that we should get married because we were really good parents, or something like that. They're little kids. They have no idea what they're saying. So, my secret talent is making babies smile. I know what jokes to tell, what faces to make, what foods to prepare, and stuff like that. And Ino jokes that I'd be a great father one day. But she underestimates herself and overestimates me. The kids love her just as much."

"…what the heck is going on with you two?" Sakura asked.

"Yeah! Do you just, like, make out behind our backs and practice raising kids for someday when you're married and have kids of your own?" Naruto added.

"NO!" Shikamaru yelled.

"You two seriously needed this party. Without it, you'd be doomed to be in love but without actually having a relationship," Naruto continued.

"SHUT UP, NARUTO! Nobody wants to hear you babble about them!" Sakura yelped, in a moment of I-want-to-get-on-with-the-game.

"Calm yourself…" Sasuke calmly said.

"Okay!" Sakura hugged him and moved on with the game as everyone chuckled.

"Ugh. Naruto, truth or dare?" Shikamaru asked.

"Dare!"

"I dare you to go take a pee on one of the Elder's bedroom floors."

"…what?"

"Don't play dumb, boy!" Ino laughed. "Do it!"

"Do it. You won't," Neji teased.

"H-he will! H-he will do anything! He's so b-brave!" Hinata stood up for her boyfriend.

Naruto gently kissed her lips and said, "Thanks, Hina-chan!" She promptly got light-headed, but regained her composure.

"Alright! Let's get this show on the road!" Naruto laughed as he walked upstairs to the Elders' bedrooms. He opened the first door he saw and said, "Neji? Hina-chan? Who is that?"

Neji and Hinata exchanged horrified looks. "Naruto…don't pee on his floor. Anyone but him," Neji urged.

"Why not, dattebayo?"

"Because this is the man who has insane power and will certainly make your life miserable if you do."

"Who is he?"

"Akira-sama. He is the family's oldest and most powerful member. Although he's extremely aged, he still thinks that anybody who's not in Hyuuga is an enemy soldier from the Civil War, which he fought in for some reason. Yah, he's that old. And he's got extreme senses. If you pee on his floor, he'll never, ever let you live through it."

"FORGET THAT! I'M A-GOIN' FOR IT!" Naruto yelped, bursting open the door and beginning to tinkle on Akira-sama's floor. Everybody else stood by the door, horrified, as Naruto ran into the middle of the room and wee-weed himself.

"No!" the rest of them screamed in unison. Naruto just mooned them with his hiney and kept peeing all over the floor.

"Quien eres?" Akira-sama appeared randomly from his bed and stood right above Naruto.

"Um…very good, thank you?" Naruto guessed.

"I forgot to tell you! He thinks he's Spanish sometimes!" Hinata hollered.

"I thought that was Swahili!"

"You're dumber than I ever would have thought!" Sakura face-palmed her (giant) forehead.

"Well, well. Why are you urinating on my hardwood carpet?"

"…what hardwood carpet?" Naruto responded, still peeing all over the floor. "That's an oxymoron…?"

"He's completely nuts!" Tenten noticed aloud.

"Ya think?" Shikamaru rhetorically asked.

Akira-sama was still angry. "If'fin you keep on peeing on my hardwood carpet, I'm gonna have to call the authorities on you."

"Do these people not know the authorities are dead?" Sasuke threw his hands in the air.

"SUPER MEGA ULTRA UBER FLAME ICE CRYSTAL POWER EXTREME LADY GAGA JUTSU 7000, GO!" Akira screamed, pushing his hands forward.

"WHAAAA?" Naruto yelped, pulling up his pants, which he should have done quite a few paragraphs ago.

Suddenly, Naruto and everybody else were extremely relieved to see Akira fall back asleep on his bed. He'd collapsed and begun snoring incredibly loudly. Everybody else sighed in extreme relief.

"You are SO lucky he's an old fart," Neji scolded.

"How was I to know?" Naruto finished zipping up his pants.

"Hmm, maybe you just could have LISTENED to Neji-kun?" Tenten crossed her arms over her chest.

"Why?"

"Forget it! Just forget it!" Ino hollered. "Let's all go back downstairs and finish up the game. I'd definitely like to get a few more hilarious dares and revealing, juicy truths in before we all do something else that's completely different."

"C-cool idea," Hinata sighed. "N-Naruto-kun! Your turn."

"Alright, Hina-chan!" Naruto smiled at his girlfriend and then turned to the crowd once they all got downstairs and sat in their circle with Tenten on Neji's lap. "Dattebayo, ummm…Tenten, truth or dare?"

"I already did Truth, so…Dare!"

Naruto smirked sinisterly. "Tenten, then, I dare you to dance to "Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira for Neji."

"…What?" Tenten flushed, hopping up from Neji's lap and looking at Naruto with a please-don't-make-me-do-that face.

"It's truth or dare! You've got to!" Ino persuaded.

"…Fine!" Tenten sighed, getting up and grabbing her iPod and putting it in the speakers and putting on the song.

"Wait!" Naruto declared.

Tenten moaned. "What?"

"You have to put on one of Hinata's cute outfits."

"'Cute?' What's that supposed to mean?"

"You know," Sakura winked and nudged Tenten, who blushed and meekly headed upstairs to change into one of Hinata's "cute" outfits.

When she arrived back down, she sighed. She was wearing a tight, white, short-sleeved top with rips in the sleeves. The top said "CRUSH" on it in black, messy letters. She also wore black leather shorts and huge silver hoops, and she put on black, semi-strappy heels.

"Hina-chan. I love this outfit, babe, but not for now." With that, Tenten started the music.

"I can't dance!" she warned as the trumpets at the beginning came in. Then, when Wyclef Jean's voice entered, she began to move her hips around.

Neji just stared at his new girlfriend, mesmerized at her moves. She even seemed to be getting the hang of dancing, and she had a relaxed, comfortable, easy smile on her face. When the middle of the song came, Tenten winked and pointed at Neij, and he felt himself getting a nosebleed. He, however, suppressed it as best he could.

The song finally ended, and the thought of 'I can dance!' rang through Tenten's head as she dramatically bowed at the end. She went upstairs, put her pajamas back on, and placed a simple yet chaste kiss on her boyfriend's cheek and proceeded to sit on his lap again.

"How was that, stud?" she asked, much like Sandy from Grease at the end of the movie.

"I'm speechless," Neji said in awe.

"Good," Tenten smirked. "Anyway!" she said, putting away her confident and flirty mode and switching back into game mode. "Ino-chan! You haven't gone yet. Truth or dare?"

"Dare! That looked like fun!"

"Ooh, it did? Well, then you shall be most disappointed," Tenten said, with mock formality. "For I dare you to have a water balloon fight in Hiashi's room with Naruto."

Ino's eyes widened in horror. "Um…why?"

"How many times has this question been asked?" Tenten wondered aloud. "Just do it!"

"Yeah! Like Nike!" Sakura added.

Ino tried to get out of it. "Um…well, you included Naruto in the dare, and it's not his turn. So you have to change the dare so it's something only I can do."

Naruto grinned from ear to ear. "No way, Ino! I'd love to do that!"

Ino clenched her teeth together and glared at him. "Remind me to hurt you later."

Without another word, the gang filled up water balloons and headed up the stairs to Hiashi's bedroom, where everyone circled around the bed and Ino and Naruto stood on opposite sides of the room.

"This is absolutely crazy! He'll have a panic attack! As if we haven't thrown him over the edge enough already!" Ino complained.

She was silenced (or loudened, based on her scream. It depends on how you look at it.) by Naruto throwing a balloon in her face. "Too late now!" he yelped. "Now you've got to get me!"

Ino smirked. Her sudden change in personality led her to hurl her water balloon at Naruto as if her life depended on it.

The fight ensued as the gang laughed and pointed and giggled. Naruto was soaking wet, and so was Ino. After about thirty seconds of fighting and eruptions of noise, an aura was awakened. Hiashi.

"What. Is. The. Meaning. Of. This." he growled, slowly sitting up from the bed. His eyes were fire (literally) and his fists were clenched and his teeth were together and his veins were protruding and his hair was rising and his ears were unleashing steam and oh no they're all going to die and the room was spinning and Tiger Woods was cheating on his wife and the kids all looked at each other incredulously and Naruto farted and Hiashi screamed.

"WHY DO YOU KIDS INSIST ON RUINING MY NIGHT?" he hollered. "MAKEUP, AND SWIMMING, AND NOW THIS? Neji and Hinata, I may never give you permission to have a sleepover party again! Not after what you've done to my house, my dignity, my pride, my face, and my honor! You kids are so immature; I may have to go to the authorities and –"

"THE AUTHORITIES ARE DEAD!" Sasuke declared loudly. "What don't you people understand about that? My parents and family were in the police force, so they're the authorities! Stop bringing it up and let me go eat some chocolate to soothe my soul!" Sasuke furiously burrowed, storming down the stairs as the rest of the gang followed him. Hiashi, pulling an Akira-sama move, fell back on the bed in unconsciousness.

When they all returned downstairs, Sakura asked, "Hey, Sasuke-kun? Are you alright?"

He smirked. "I'm fine. I just use that as an excuse to get him to shut up."

"Your parents would not be proud," Neji sternly reminded.

"Whatever," Sasuke brushed off his comment. "Anyway. Sakura-chan. Truth or dare?"

"I'm not licking that toilet again. Truth."

"Okay, angel…what's the biggest lie you've ever told?"

Sakura smiled and said, "Sasuke, I don't love you with every fiber of my soul. I don't think you're the most amazing boy ever to live, and I definitely don't want to grow old with you and enjoy every waking moment by your side. I don't think of you every time I watch a romantic movie, and I've never liked you at all. I hope I never see your face again."

Sasuke looked defeated, miserable, and torn. "S-Sakura…why would you say that all of a sudden?"

She chuckled, kissed his lips, and, her face inches away from his, whispered, "Because that was the biggest lie I've ever told."

Sasuke beamed about as much as Uchiha-ly possible and started to kiss her romantically. He'd felt the same way for her all this time and never really realized it until a few months ago. It felt amazing to kiss her and to love her the way he did.

The game continued. "Hina-chan, truth or dare?"

"D-dare!"

"Why anyone would choose Dare after what just happened with me and Sasuke, not to mention what just happened with Naruto and Ino, is beyond me, but whatever floats your boat…I dare you to draw a happy face on Naruto's neck with chocolate, whipped cream, whatever you can find. Then, lick it off."

Hinata inhaled and exhaled blatantly and fanned herself. "Alright…" she said, slightly scared of her incoming dare. His neck? She'd kissed his lips, but…

"Is that okay, Naruto-k-kun?" she asked.

"Go ahead!" He closed his eyes and smiled at her.

This gave Hinata a burst of confidence, so she happily raced to the kitchen and grabbed chocolate syrup, whipped cream, sprinkles, and various other sugary ingredients.

Slowly, she used her hands to make a chocolate syrup mouth on his neck. She made a full-out nose with the whipped cream, and used strawberry icing as eyes. Then, she placed a few sprinkles in the center of each strawberry icing circle. Without another movement, Hinata licked the food off of her boyfriend's neck, savoring the taste of it but savoring the moment even more.

"That just brought us closer," Naruto winked.

Hinata flushed with pleasure and everyone sat back in the circle.

"N-Neji-niisan, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"I d-dare you to randomly choose a door, open it, and a-ask whoever is i-in it for an ice cube."

Neji chuckled. "Why would I need an ice cube?"

"Y-you don't! That's the whole p-point!"

"That's kind of boring, Hinata-niichan."

Shikamaru commented, "Not necessarily. Remember what happened with that Kiari chick? You could end up asking a freak for an ice cube and having a volcanic eruption response."

"True enough. Let's go."

With that, the gang marched upstairs and Neji knocked on a random door. Everyone else stood in the doorway and watched as the Elder opened the door. "Neji-kun! How's it goin', kiddo! I'm glad you're enjoying your sleepover! What can I get for you?"

Neji looked at everyone else with an awkward expression. The man standing before him was none other than Uryu, who completely enjoyed life and always had a smile on his face. The reason could be his starstruck attitude towards life because of the fact that he shared a name with a Bleach character.

"Uryu-sama! Hello. Do you have an ice cube for me?"

"Absolutely, Neji-kun! Hold on one minute. Let me open my ice cube door."

Ironically, the only huge door in Uryu's room was home to countless ice cubes. It was freezing in that room. Uryu smiled as he handed one to Neji and said, "What for?"

"Umm…it's a present. For my girlfriend." Everyone laughed from behind and Tenten giggled in a girly fashion.

"She'll adore it! I got all of these from my wife, you know."

"Oh, you did, did you?"

"Yup, sure did! She's downstairs takin' her nightly swim."

Neji looked at him, puzzled. He'd learned two things in the past thirty seconds: that Uryu's wife swam every night at approximately 3:30 in the morning, and that he had tons of ice cubes conveniently located in his bedroom.

"Well, thanks, Uryu-sama! I owe you one!"

"Anytime, you good little kid! Go get 'er!"

Neji smiled and shut the door.

"He seemed so nice!" Tenten smiled.

"Good. He'll be your in-law," Ino commented with a chuckle.

"Touche," Tenten winked and Ino and then at Neji. Neji said, "Well, Ino. Truth or dare?"

"I just went!"

"Well, now you're going again. Truth or dare?"

"Truth, obviously…"

"Okay. If you could kiss any girl here, who would it be?"

"…and why would I want to?"

"Because it's a hypothetical truth or dare question."

"I can't answer that. I wouldn't want to kiss any girls here."

"Pick one!"

"Fine!" Ino scanned the room with her finger and did Eenie-Meenie-Miney-Mo in her head. She landed on Sakura. "Sakura," she said.

"Don't even think about it, Ino-pig!" Sasuke hugged Sakura's waist.

"I did Eenie-Meenie-Miney-Mo in my head, for your information!"

"But who would you really want to kiss?" Neji asked.

"SAKURA, I guess! Alright? She's my closest friend, so it wouldn't be as awkward. But I wouldn't want to!"

Sakura nodded. "I hear you loud and clear."

Ino nodded. "Yeah."

Sasuke nodded. "You better not get any ideas."

Ino nodded. "I won't."

Sasuke nodded. "Good."

Ino nodded. "Yup."

Sakura nodded. "This is awkward."

Shikamaru nodded. "Very."

Naruto nodded. "I farted a few paragraphs ago."

Tenten nodded. "We know."

Ino nodded. "Back to the game. Naruto, truth or dare?"

"Truth, dattebayo!"

"What do you wear to bed? Boxers or briefs?"

Naruto sighed. The age-old question. It was almost comparable to "Coke or Pepsi?" but only more cliché. "I guess I usually wear my Hinata boxers."

"You have Hinata boxers?" Tenten asked.

"Sure. Doesn't everyone have underpants with the person they love on them!"

Hinata smiled. "Aww, Naruto-kun! That's so…creepy, yet so sweet at the same time!"

Naruto grinned and kissed the top of her head. "Sasuke-teme! Truth or dare?"

"Truth, baka."

"Okay. Have you ever danced to a pop song in a mirror?"

"…maybe?" Sasuke guessed.

"Ooh!" Sakura squealed. "What song?"

…"Womanizer" by Britney Spears. I think it describes my life pretty well.

"Someone's a bit cocky, eh?" Shikamaru yawned.

"Ha, ha. Funny, Nara," Sasuke sneered.

"But you do?" Ino asked. "That's kind of odd. For a prodigy and all. I can see Naruto doing that, but…"

"Come on. We all have our eccentricities. Tenten and her voodoo, Saku-chan and her infatuation with me, Shikamaru and his babysitting abilities, Neji and his Ruthie-ness. Everyone's unique. Everybody is special. Me included."

"True, I g-guess!" Hinata chuckled.

"Yah," Sasuke agreed. "Shikamaru, man. Truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to kiss an item in the room passionately and romantically for thirty seconds."

"That's easy," Shikamaru commented.

"But you have to go in the hallway while the rest of us discuss what the item should be."

"…that's not as easy," Shikamaru sighed, knowing that they would most likely give him a really nasty item. He left the room, and the others decided what item for him to kiss.

"How about someone's sleeping bag?" Naruto suggested.

"Too boring," Sakura commented.

"The wall?" Sasuke added.

"Too overused," Ino laughed.

"How about Ino?" Tenten joked.

"I wouldn't mind!" Ino happily chuckled.

"Yeah, but it has to be an item. Plus, Ino and Shikamaru have kissed enough, as we've all learned tonight," Neji said.

"Okay. H-how about…" Hinata stuttered.

"My pajama bottoms!" Naruto yelled, but not loudly enough for Shikamaru to hear.

"Yes!" everyone else agreed in unison, having Naruto strip down to his boxers and calling Shikamaru back in. When he did get back in, he noticed Naruto's ramen boxers and said, "Oh, no."

"Behold! My flatulence-covered pants!" Naruto showed them off to Shikamaru.

"No!" Shikamaru exclaimed.

"You only live once, Shika-kun!" Ino cheered.

"…Fine!" Shikamaru grabbed the boxers and flopped his butt on the couch with the boxers on top of him. He forcefully and powerfully began to put his lips on them for the ensuing thirty seconds. When the metaphorical timer "ding"ed, Shikamaru sighed in relief. No more of that!

"I'm g-getting tired of t-truth or d-dare, finally…" Hinata said.

"Me too!" Shikamaru, Neji, and Tenten all said in unison.

"Let's do something else!" Naruto suggested.

"Like what?" Ino asked.

Sakura smirked. "Spin the Bottle, perhaps?"

Thank you for reading this! I'm really glad with how it came out. Sorry if it was too long – I wanted to put in one truth and one dare for everybody! The Truth or Dare section is now over! (MMM-chan hears some applause and some boos from her audience) oh, come on, now! It'll be fun to see the kissy-smooch-smooching in the next chapter! Stay tuned!
