Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but then you already knew that. : )
Hey everyone! Yes, I'm back, sorry for the kinda late update. And also, I've been really busy, so I just sent the last of the replies today, too. Sorry about that.
But now, the fluffy chapter is here! But while I was writing it, I realized that including everything would make it hellishly long. So I'm splitting it up into 2 parts, this being the first one. Enjoy!

(.s.)
Thereover, Hereunder
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear-
But that's the deal my dear.
(.s.)

At 5:40, Sakura was running to the amusement park, in denim jeans and a pink t-shirt.

"Oh no," she thought. "I'm going to be late and everyone willl be upset-"

"Hey."

Sakura swung around, startled, and relaxed when she saw Sasuke in a long-sleeved navy blue shirt and black jeans.

"Sasuke?" she blinked. "What're you doing here?"

"Being late seems to be a habit for you. I figured I'd walk you up."

"Sorry," she blushed and turned away.

Sasuke kept his eyes on her. He honestly didn't care about taking her to the park. All that was on his mind was beginning Stage 2. And he was about to… except that a pair of hands covered his eyes.

"Naruto," he said, holding back his anger, "get your hands off my face. NOW."

"Fine, don't be such a grouch," Naruto grinned, and scratched the back of his head. He was wearing an orange shirt and jeans. Hinata waved from behind him, wearing a lavender sundress.

"N-Neji and Tenten went to get tickets," Hinata played with her fingers as she looked at Sakura. "W-We should try to catch up, they're waiting for us with I-Ino and Shikamaru."

"Awesome," Sakura smiled, and she and Hinata walked ahead, talking animatedly.

"You were about to ask her something important," Naruto narrowed his eyes as he turned to Sasuke.

"So that's why you interrupted? So I couldn't ask an important question?"

"Yes."

"I'll just ask her later," Sasuke smirked triumphantly at a stunned-looking Naruto, and their conversation was discontinued.

"Finally!" Ino said as she saw them coming. "You're here! Took you long enough!"

"Troublesome woman," Shikamaru sighed as he held her back. "Let's just get inside."

"Mm-hm," Neji said as he and Tenten passed out tickets.

Inside the park, it was a whirlwind. People of all ages and sizes were there, having fun as if the world would end tomorrow.

"This is gonna be so cool! Believe it!" Naruto yelled. "I can't wait till we go on the roller coaster!"

"Roller coaster?" Sakura blinked. "I don't like heights. Let's go on the other rides."

"No! We have to win prizes!" said Tenten.

They all stopped and looked at each other. This was a conundrum.

"Split up," Shikamaru announced finally. "We'll go in pairs… a guy with a girl," he instinctively held Ino's hand, and she held back a blush. "And I guess we'll meet back here around 9:30."

The others nodded, and they all sped off in different directions.

"Shikamaru!" Ino smiled. "Let's go! I wanna try the ferris wheel—"

But Shikamaru had walked away and sat on a nearby park bench.

"Shikamaru, what—"

"The clouds at sunset are really pretty."

He could not be serious.

"Ferris wheel," Ino said, her hands on her hips. "Now."

"Maybe later…" Shikamaru said, still looking at the sky.

"So the clouds are more interesting than I am!?" Ino yelled at him and waved her arms.

"No."

She blinked, not expecting that answer. "What?"

"They're not," Shikamaru shrugged. "But you're always doing something. Sometimes it's good to stop for a while, and take it slow, like the clouds, y'know? Otherwise, life would be so troublesome."

Ino would've slapped him if he hadn't made so much sense.

"You can go to the ferris wheel on your own, I don't really care. Just don't get yourself raped or anything."

She gave him a swift slap across his face.

"Ow!" he said, wincing as he held his hand against his cheek. "What was—"

"Shh, troublesome boy," she whispered as she sat next to him. "Let's watch the clouds together."

Shikamaru didn't reply. He just sat there on the bench, and let Ino lean into him. Cloud watching just got a lot more fun.

"So, now what?" Neji looked at Tenten as they walked.

Her eyes brightened. "Well, I was thinking—"

"Bumper cars?" Neji guessed.

Tenten's looked down, and she sighed. "Sure."

The walk to the bumper cars was silent, and Neji glanced at Tenten. She didn't seem to be having much fun. But why? They were doing what she wanted to do!

"It's like he's as clueless about Sakura as Neji is about me."

Neji narrowed his eyebrows. Tenten had said that about Sasuke earlier. But if there was one thing Neji Hyuuga was NOT, it was clueless. He knew everything… well, he thought he did, until now.

"Tenten," he turned to her.

She glanced at him. "Hm?"

"Are you… having a good time?"

"Duh!" she laughed. "This is awesome!"

At any other time, he would have believed her. But right now, her smile was plastic and her words seemed very forced.

"Tenten," he said. "Don't lie."

She blinked. "What?"

"I heard you say I was clueless about you today," he said point-blank. Honesty was the best policy. "I want to know what you meant."

"I don't know what you're talking about—look, the bumper cars are over there!" she tried to skip away, but Neji caught her arms and gently pulled her to him, almost knocking them into someone. Then, he led her to a nearby lightpost.

"Tell me." His lavender eyes looked serious, and his grip on her was strong yet gentle. Tenten gave in.

"I'm not a guy," she said.

"If you were, I wouldn't be dating you," Neji rolled his eyes.

"I'm serious," she looked at him almost pleadingly. "Sure, I like to play catch, and tag, and whatever. But I want to do girly things too. Like go into the Tunnel of Love, and… hugging, and kissing," she looked at him, and his eyes told her to continue.

"But I was afraid because… I didn't think you'd like me anymore. The Tenten you know, and the real me… are different," she closed her eyes, expecting the worst.

"If you and the Tenten I know are different…"

"He's going to dump me. I knew it," Tenten closed her eyes tight.

"… I guess I'll have to get to know you better."

And then he kissed her. Slowly, and powerfully, he kissed her. Some people stated whispering something about a 'shameful display', others saying 'young love', but what did he care? And she cared even less as she kissed him back.

He pulled away. "Wanna take a ride through the Tunnel of Love?"

She smiled at him—a real smile this time. "Definitely."

Woo, this chapter down! The song excerpt was from 'Whenever, Wherever' by Shakira.

Yes, I know I only got through the ShikaIno and the NejiTen this chapter. Don't worry, SasuSaku and NaruHina will be in the next one. (Yes! Another hapter!) But for now, review, and tell me how you liked this one… especially with all the fluff! And remember… I'm still replying!

"Tenten," he said. "Don't lie."

She blinked. "What?"

"I heard you say I was clueless about you today," he said point-blank. Honesty was the best policy. "I want to know what you meant."

"I don't know what you're talking about—look, the bumper cars are over there!" she tried to skip away, but Neji caught her arms and gently pulled her to him, almost knocking them into someone. Then, he led her to a nearby lightpost.

"Tell me." His lavender eyes looked serious, and his grip on her was strong yet gentle. Tenten gave in.

"I'm not a guy," she said.

"If you were, I wouldn't be dating you," Neji rolled his eyes.

"I'm serious," she looked at him almost pleadingly. "Sure, I like to play catch, and tag, and whatever. But I want to do girly things too. Like go into the Tunnel of Love, and… hugging, and kissing," she looked at him, and his eyes told her to continue.

"But I was afraid because… I didn't think you'd like me anymore. The Tenten you know, and the real me… are different," she closed her eyes, expecting the worst.

"If you and the Tenten I know are different…"

"He's going to dump me. I knew it," Tenten closed her eyes tight.

"… I guess I'll have to get to know you better."

And then he kissed her. Slowly, and powerfully, he kissed her. Some people stated whispering something about a 'shameful display', others saying 'young love', but what did he care? And she cared even less as she kissed him back.

He pulled away. "Wanna take a ride through the Tunnel of Love?"

She smiled at him—a real smile this time. "Definitely."

Woo, this chapter down! The song excerpt was from 'Whenever, Wherever' by Shakira.

Yes, I know I only got through the ShikaIno and the NejiTen this chapter. Don't worry, SasuSaku and NaruHina will be in the next one. (Yes! Another fluffy chater!) But for now, review, and tell me how you liked this one… especially with all the fluff! And remember… I'm still replying!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but then you already knew that. : )
Hey everyone! Yes, I'm back, sorry for the kinda late update. And also, I've been really busy, so I just sent the last of the replies today, too. Sorry about that.
But now, the fluffy chapter is here! But while I was writing it, I realized that including everything would make it hellishly long. So I'm splitting it up into 2 parts, this being the first one. Enjoy!

(.s.)
Thereover, Hereunder
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear-
But that's the deal my dear.
(.s.)

At 5:40, Sakura was running to the amusement park, in denim jeans and a pink t-shirt.

"Oh no," she thought. "I'm going to be late and everyone willl be upset-"

"Hey."

Sakura swung around, startled, and relaxed when she saw Sasuke in a long-sleeved navy blue shirt and black jeans.

"Sasuke?" she blinked. "What're you doing here?"

"Being late seems to be a habit for you. I figured I'd walk you up."

"Sorry," she blushed and turned away.

Sasuke kept his eyes on her. He honestly didn't care about taking her to the park. All that was on his mind was beginning Stage 2. And he was about to… except that a pair of hands covered his eyes.

"Naruto," he said, holding back his anger, "get your hands off my face. NOW."

"Fine, don't be such a grouch," Naruto grinned, and scratched the back of his head. He was wearing an orange shirt and jeans. Hinata waved from behind him, wearing a lavender sundress.

"N-Neji and Tenten went to get tickets," Hinata played with her fingers as she looked at Sakura. "W-We should try to catch up, they're waiting for us with I-Ino and Shikamaru."

"Awesome," Sakura smiled, and she and Hinata walked ahead, talking animatedly.

"You were about to ask her something important," Naruto narrowed his eyes as he turned to Sasuke.

"So that's why you interrupted? So I couldn't ask an important question?"

"Yes."

"I'll just ask her later," Sasuke smirked triumphantly at a stunned-looking Naruto, and their conversation was discontinued.

"Finally!" Ino said as she saw them coming. "You're here! Took you long enough!"

"Troublesome woman," Shikamaru sighed as he held her back. "Let's just get inside."

"Mm-hm," Neji said as he and Tenten passed out tickets.

Inside the park, it was a whirlwind. People of all ages and sizes were there, having fun as if the world would end tomorrow.

"This is gonna be so cool! Believe it!" Naruto yelled. "I can't wait till we go on the roller coaster!"

"Roller coaster?" Sakura blinked. "I don't like heights. Let's go on the other rides."

"No! We have to win prizes!" said Tenten.

They all stopped and looked at each other. This was a conundrum.

"Split up," Shikamaru announced finally. "We'll go in pairs… a guy with a girl," he instinctively held Ino's hand, and she held back a blush. "And I guess we'll meet back here around 9:30."

The others nodded, and they all sped off in different directions.

"Shikamaru!" Ino smiled. "Let's go! I wanna try the ferris wheel—"

But Shikamaru had walked away and sat on a nearby park bench.

"Shikamaru, what—"

"The clouds at sunset are really pretty."

He could not be serious.

"Ferris wheel," Ino said, her hands on her hips. "Now."

"Maybe later…" Shikamaru said, still looking at the sky.

"So the clouds are more interesting than I am!?" Ino yelled at him and waved her arms.

"No."

She blinked, not expecting that answer. "What?"

"They're not," Shikamaru shrugged. "But you're always doing something. Sometimes it's good to stop for a while, and take it slow, like the clouds, y'know? Otherwise, life would be so troublesome."

Ino would've slapped him if he hadn't made so much sense.

"You can go to the ferris wheel on your own, I don't really care. Just don't get yourself raped or anything."

She gave him a swift slap across his face.

"Ow!" he said, wincing as he held his hand against his cheek. "What was—"

"Shh, troublesome boy," she whispered as she sat next to him. "Let's watch the clouds together."

Shikamaru didn't reply. He just sat there on the bench, and let Ino lean into him. Cloud watching just got a lot more fun.

"So, now what?" Neji looked at Tenten as they walked.

Her eyes brightened. "Well, I was thinking—"

"Bumper cars?" Neji guessed.

Tenten's looked down, and she sighed. "Sure."

The walk to the bumper cars was silent, and Neji glanced at Tenten. She didn't seem to be having much fun. But why? They were doing what she wanted to do!

"It's like he's as clueless about Sakura as Neji is about me."

Neji narrowed his eyebrows. Tenten had said that about Sasuke earlier. But if there was one thing Neji Hyuuga was NOT, it was clueless. He knew everything… well, he thought he did, until now.

"Tenten," he turned to her.

She glanced at him. "Hm?"

"Are you… having a good time?"

"Duh!" she laughed. "This is awesome!"

At any other time, he would have believed her. But right now, her smile was plastic and her words seemed very forced.

"Tenten," he said. "Don't lie."

She blinked. "What?"

"I heard you say I was clueless about you today," he said point-blank. Honesty was the best policy. "I want to know what you meant."

"They're not," Shikamaru shrugged. "But you're always doing something. Sometimes it's good to stop for a while, and take it slow, like the clouds, y'know? Otherwise, life would be so troublesome."

Ino would've slapped him if he hadn't made so much sense.

"You can go to the ferris wheel on your own, I don't really care. Just don't get yourself raped or anything."

She gave him a swift slap across his face.

"Ow!" he said, wincing as he held his hand against his cheek. "What was—"

"Shh, troublesome boy," she whispered as she sat next to him. "Let's watch the clouds together."

Shikamaru didn't reply. He just sat there on the bench, and let Ino lean into him. Cloud watching just got a lot more fun.

"So, now what?" Neji looked at Tenten as they walked.

Her eyes brightened. "Well, I was thinking—"

"Bumper cars?" Neji guessed.

Tenten's looked down, and she sighed. "Sure."

The walk to the bumper cars was silent, and Neji glanced at Tenten. She didn't seem to be having much fun. But why? They were doing what she wanted to do!

"It's like he's as clueless about Sakura as Neji is about me."

Neji narrowed his eyebrows. Tenten had said that about Sasuke earlier. But if there was one thing Neji Hyuuga was NOT, it was clueless. He knew everything… well, he thought he did, until now.

"Tenten," he turned to her.

She glanced at him. "Hm?"

"Are you… having a good time?"

"Duh!" she laughed. "This is awesome!"

At any other time, he would have believed her. But right now, her smile was plastic and her words seemed very forced.

"Tenten," he said. "Don't lie."

She blinked. "What?"

"I heard you say I was clueless about you today," he said point-blank. Honesty was the best policy. "I want to know what you meant."

"I don't know what you're talking about—look, the bumper cars are over there!" she tried to skip away, but Neji caught her arms and gently pulled her to him, almost knocking them into someone. Then, he led her to a nearby lightpost.

"Tell me." His lavender eyes looked serious, and his grip on her was strong yet gentle. Tenten gave in.

"I'm not a guy," she said.

"If you were, I wouldn't be dating you," Neji rolled his eyes.

"I'm serious," she looked at him almost pleadingly. "Sure, I like to play catch, and tag, and whatever. But I want to do girly things too. Like go into the Tunnel of Love, and… hugging, and kissing," she looked at him, and his eyes told her to continue.

"But I was afraid because… I didn't think you'd like me anymore. The Tenten you know, and the real me… are different," she closed her eyes, expecting the worst.

"If you and the Tenten I know are different…"

"He's going to dump me. I knew it," Tenten closed her eyes tight.

"… I guess I'll have to get to know you better."

And then he kissed her. Slowly, and powerfully, he kissed her. Some people stated whispering something about a 'shameful display', others saying 'young love', but what did he care? And she cared even less as she kissed him back.

He pulled away. "Wanna take a ride through the Tunnel of Love?"

She smiled at him—a real smile this time. "Definitely."

Woo, this chapter down! The song excerpt was from 'Whenever, Wherever' by Shakira.

Yes, I know I only got through the ShikaIno and the NejiTen this chapter. Don't worry, SasuSaku and ruHina will be in the next one. (Yes! Another fluffy chapter!) But for now, review, and tell me how you liked this one… especially with all the fluff! And remember… I'm still replying!

Sasuke smirked. "She'll be for fangirl-exterminating purposes only." Unexpectedly, he fell in love... and she found out about his plan. AU, mainly SasuSaku, with NaruHina, NejiTen and ShikaIno.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but then you already knew that. : )
Hey everyone! Yes, I'm back, sorry for the kinda late update. And also, I've been really busy, so I just sent the last of the replies today, too. Sorry about that.
But now, the fluffy chapter is here! But while I was writing it, I realized that including everything would make it hellishly long. So I'm splitting it up into 2 parts, this being the first one. Enjoy!

(.s.)
Thereover, Hereunder
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear-
But that's the deal my dear.
(.s.)

At 5:40, Sakura was running to the amusement park, in denim jeans and a pink t-shirt.

"Oh no," she thought. "I'm going to be late and everyone willl be upset-"

"Hey."

Sakura swung around, startled, and relaxed when she saw Sasuke in a long-sleeved navy blue shirt and black jeans.

"Sasuke?" she blinked. "What're you doing here?"

"Being late seems to be a habit for you. I figured I'd walk you up."

"Sorry," she blushed and turned away.

Sasuke kept his eyes on her. He honestly didn't care about taking her to the park. All that was on his mind was beginning Stage 2. And he was about to… except that a pair of hands covered his eyes.

"Naruto," he said, holding back his anger, "get your hands off my face. NOW."

"Fine, don't be such a grouch," Naruto grinned, and scratched the back of his head. He was wearing an orange shirt and jeans. Hinata waved from behind him, wearing a lavender sundress.

"N-Neji and Tenten went to get tickets," Hinata played with her fingers as she looked at Sakura. "W-We should try to catch up, they're waiting for us with I-Ino and Shikamaru."

"Awesome," Sakura smiled, and she and Hinata walked ahead, talking animatedly.

"You were about to ask her something important," Naruto narrowed his eyes as he turned to Sasuke.

"So that's why you interrupted? So I couldn't ask an important question?"

"Yes."

"I'll just ask her later," Sasuke smirked triumphantly at a stunned-looking Naruto, and their conversation was discontinued.

"Finally!" Ino said as she saw them coming. "You're here! Took you long enough!"

"Troublesome woman," Shikamaru sighed as he held her back. "Let's just get inside."

"Mm-hm," Neji said as he and Tenten passed out tickets.

Inside the park, it was a whirlwind. People of all ages and sizes were there, having fun as if the world would end tomorrow.

"This is gonna be so cool! Believe it!" Naruto yelled. "I can't wait till we go on the roller coaster!"

"Roller coaster?" Sakura blinked. "I don't like heights. Let's go on the other rides."

"No! We have to win prizes!" said Tenten.

They all stopped and looked at each other. This was a conundrum.

"Split up," Shikamaru announced finally. "We'll go in pairs… a guy with a girl," he instinctively held Ino's hand, and she held back a blush. "And I guess we'll meet back here around 9:30."

The others nodded, and they all sped off in different directions.

"Shikamaru!" Ino smiled. "Let's go! I wanna try the ferris wheel—"

But Shikamaru had walked away and sat on a nearby park bench.

"Shikamaru, what—"

"The clouds at sunset are really pretty."

He could not be serious.

"Ferris wheel," Ino said, her hands on her hips. "Now."

"Maybe later…" Shikamaru said, still looking at the sky.

"So the clouds are more interesting than I am!?" Ino yelled at him and waved her arms.

"No."

She blinked, not expecting that answer. "What?"

"They're not," Shikamaru shrugged. "But you're always doing something. Sometimes it's good to stop for a while, and take it slow, like the clouds, y'know? Otherwise, life would be so troublesome."

Ino would've slapped him if he hadn't made so much sense.

"You can go to the ferris wheel on your own, I don't really care. Just don't get yourself raped or anything."

She gave him a swift slap across his face.

"Ow!" he said, wincing as he held his hand against his cheek. "What was—"
