Chapter 18

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto

In the last chapter:

"Well? What are we waiting around for? Lets go!" Ino says enthusiastically. She turns around and drags the male, not noticing the smile on his face.

-

"We should follow them."

"Why?"

"Because!"

"B-but aren't they supposed to be alone together? It's a date, a-after all."

"But—"

"Yeah, they should have some privacy!"

"So? What if Ino really needs us there?"

"Well, now that you pointed that out..."

"See?"

"B-but what if Ino doesn't need us?"

"Don't be silly Hinata, we're her best friends!"

"I guess it wouldn't hurt to follow them..."

"Alright! Let's go!"

Sakura, Hinata, and Tenten entered the restaurant. A bell chimed as soon as they walked in. They were soon approached by a handsome waiter. "A table for three beautiful ladies?" He— Max was his name— asked. The three teens nodded shyly, making the waiter smile. His smile was warm and friendly, something that all of them liked. "This way, please." Max says and guides them to their table.
  "Now that I think about it," Tenten says as they sat down. "What we're doing is stalking, right?"
  "Nah." Sakura replied nonchalantly, like she didn't care about anything anymore. "W-well, we are following Ino and observing her from the distance." Hinata says quietly.
"Is it a crime to stalk? Technically it isn't illegal. We should be fine." Sakura pointed out. Her eyes suddenly grew big and wide as she stared at all the delicious meals on the menu. "I guess you're right...but we sound like creeps." Tenten muttered out, also looking at the menu.
They were just about to order when someone says, "Eh? Sakura, Hinata, Tenten? What're you doing here?"
  That 'someone' happened to be Kiba. Behind him was Naruto, Sasuke, and— oddly enough— Neji.
"We should be asking you that question." Sakura replies with a small frown on her face. "We're here to eat, duh." Naruto says as if it was the most obvious thing, which it was.
The girls nodded and watched them take a seat at the table beside them. "You never answered our question." Sasuke reminded them. "We're here to cheer on Ino." Sakura responded. "What for?" Neji questioned. "That," Tenten says, "is none of your business."
The boys nodded and things grew silent between the two groups. It was only when Max came back did it stop being so quiet.
"What would you like?" He asks the girls, giving them another smile. In the boy's eyes, they see the girls melting with hearts in their eyes.
It made both Sasuke and Naruto very jealous. Sasuke didn't show it, of course, but Naruto most certainly did. The blonde male didn't exactly know why he was feeling like this. He assumed that it was an indigestion and looked away from Hinata and Max.
Max smiles yet again, disgusting the boys. He then leaves, promising to be back.
"God, how can someone be as handsome as him? Heck, if he went to our school he'd probably be ranked as handsome as you, Sasuke!" Kiba exclaimed, biting on a tissue. The other boys could only nod solemnly. Well, as solemn as both Sasuke and Neji could show.

"Wow!" Tenten breathed out as she stared at the freshly cooked smoked salmon on her plate. Just looking at it made her mouth water.
"Thank you for the food!" The brunette says before taking a bite. Her eyes immediately widened. "This is good!" She praised and began to eat more and more.
Sakura closed her eyes, smiling. "This is really good." She muttered out. Hinata hummed in agreement. And like Tenten, they began to eat more.
They soon forgot about watching Ino and Sai; their real reason for coming to the restaurant.

-

Things were quiet between Ino and Sai. It was also completely awkward. Between them burned a small, lavender scented candle. It was romantic, but the awkwardness was ruining it.
"So..." Ino hummed. Sai averts his eyes from the menu, looking straight into her sky blue eyes. "What are you going to order?"
"Maybe the steak, or perhaps the smoked salmon." Sai replied with a monotone voice. Ino frowned, thinking that Sai found her boring. Sai quickly apologized after realizing how he sounded, saying how he wasn't good at these stuff yet.
"I-it's fine." Ino stuttered and looked out at the ocean. Soft waves splashed against the rocks, calming her nerves down. The ocean blended in with the night sky, making Ino believe that what she was looking at wasn't the ocean but the sky.
"Do you like the sky?" Ino asks. Sai didn't answer. "Because I think it's really beautiful." Ino continues, noticing how there were now stars. Sai still hadn't said anything, making Ino worry. She turns back to look at the dark haired male, seeing him hunched over with a pencil and a small sketch pad in his hands.
"S-Sai?"
"Here." The said male suddenly says, passing the sketch pad to the blonde. She grabs it from him, briefly feeling his fingers touch her hand.
She stares down at it curiously. She then sees a beautiful sketch of her staring up at the star filled sky. "Y-you made this now?" She asks in disbelief. "Yes. Keep it." Sai answered. "It's...beautiful." Ino says softly and smiles. "Thank you, Sai."

"Ah, I'm so full..." Kiba moaned and pat his belly, completely satisfied. "I don't think I have enough room for desert..." Naruto groans. "And I really wanted to try their ice cream! They said it's delicious!"
"Idiots." Neji muttered out, receiving complains from Kiba and Naruto. "I didn't say it was you two." Neji hissed, placing his napkin down like the gentleman he is. Well, he appeared to be one. But come on, we all know he isn't exactly one.
"Ne, let's go down to the beach!" Tenten suggested. "Sure, I guess." Sakura agreed, making Hinata agree as well. The boys leaned back and listened in on their conversation.
The three girls were just about to leave when Naruto suddenly blurts out, "We're coming with you!"
He grabbed Hinata's hand unconsciously, making Sasuke, Sakura, Neji, Tenten, and Kiba raise an eyebrow. The said Hyuga blushed and wondered what she did to deserve such a thing.
The other boys nodded, anyways.
"You guys go on ahead." Kiba says, knowing only too well that he'll just be left alone again. He didn't like how he was always surrounded by couples. It made him look like he had no one— and he really didn't have anyone— to call his. Just being around Hinata and Naruto made him feel like a third wheel.
"Alright. See you at the hotel later." Naruto nodded and the six teenagers walked out of the restaurant.
