What Kind of Game is that? Part II

Sakura and Ino giggled wildly together as they listened to another of Naruto's wild exploits. Over the many years that they had all been acquainted with each other, many adventures had taken place for everyone. Sasuke never returned to Konoha after he left, and sometime after the forth great ninja war, Neji and Tenten had gotten married. Any previous relationships other than theirs had died for one reason or another.

That had not stopped the group of friends from spending time together. In the last month Sakura and Ino pulled a party together, and invited all their school mates and other friends they had acquired over the years.

"Good heavens, most of us are 21, and only Tenten and Neji got married? What does that make of us?" Sakura laughed, sipping her cold beer.

"Pathetic." Ino mumbled, taking a shot that the Kyuubi boy had poured for her. "I was close though. Shikamaru might have, but we got in quite the fight." With those words, the very man eyed her across the room, and she rolled her eyes. "I'm fine without him." At those words, Shikamaru's chatting partner rolled his eyes. Choji felt the woman needed to loosen up after the incident still.

The party had been dying down for a bit. Kankuro left early for a mission in the morning, and Sai decided that it would be best if he went home early as well. Neji and Tenten could not bother to make it since they were taking care of their second baby at the moment. Gaara was busy with well, running a country.

Hinata was still a little timid, but had grown to be quite the woman. She listened to her extremely animated comrade Kiba, who could not seem to contain himself, considering how much he had been drinking. Temari, who was the only present member from the desert nation, listened as well, laughing at the ridiculous man.

Lee and Shino sat near Choji and Shikamaru, and having never spoken very often before shared experiences that they had in common. Especially about women.

The party was being held at Sakura's house, and it was in her lounge. It was lushly decorated in warm lighting and generous amounts of drapes and pillows. A mirror consumed the far hall, and there were no windows. A bar was set up in front of the mirror, and Naruto was playing bartender.

Hinata had a good view of everyone while she sat next to Kiba, and something childish caught her attention. "Hey Kiba, remember back when we were 16, during that hot summer we spent at Naruto's?"

The dog-man racked his brain for a few minutes, and something clicked. He looked around and counted the people. "Are you, Ms. Hinata, suggesting something?" He grinned his classic wolfish grin.

A devious grin was returned, "I am Mr. Kiba." She nodded at Ino, who could see her and made eye contact. The pale eye girl simply held up ten fingers. Ino's jaw dropped.

"Hinata, you're a genius," Ino said quite loudly, the whole room looked at her. "Hey Sakura, do you know how many people are here?"

Sakura tilted her head confused, but counted anyway. She did not understand.

"Oh! Oh! Ino! I know, I know!" The blond exclaimed, having not lost any of energy over the many years.

Sakura turned very slowly to Ino. "That is so childish. Really? That's the big plan now?"

Slowly, the idea dawned on everyone in the room besides three individuals who were unfortunately, or fortunately however way you look at it, not present that day. Shikamaru face palmed, and Choji looked at him, hoping to be filled in on the information. Lee nodded, remembering the lovely memories, and Shino turned to his teammates who had started the whole ordeal.

"Sakura, you know we aren't doing anything else. Perfect Ten is like…a perfect idea!" Ino reasoned, "I mean Sakura, does anyone else mind?"

"I am so down for another round of that game." Naruto nodded.

"Hell yeah I'm in!" Kiba slammed his fist on the table, startling Temari and Hinata.

"I don't know what it is, but I'll play" Choji commented, curious about the activity.

"See, that's the spirit!" Ino chimed, "the rhyme of the game goes; Truth, Dare, Double Dare, Promise to Repeat." Sakura continued, "Cherry Bomb, Fire Bomb, Octopus, Bubble Gum," and Hinata finished, "or shall you choose Bones in a Closet or Sitting on a Cloud?"

Naruto grabbed a horde of pillows, and sat down on the floor. Ino sat next to him, and beckoned the pink girl. Shikamaru and Choji were already sitting on the floor, as were Kiba, Temari and Hinata. Shino and Lee who were standing joined the disfigured circle, and awaited Sakura's orders. Ino was already quickly writing everything down necessary.

"Alright, alright," she waved her hand in a careless manner. "The name of the game is Perfect Ten. There are ten activities and ten players. Each turn a victim chooses an activity off of the list, and has their Perfect set the parameters of their turn. Naruto since you're so damn excited, why don't you be our first victim?"

"Alright! Who wants to be my Perfect? Come at me!" Naruto held his arms up, coaxing someone to step forth.

"I'm calling you out bro" Kiba commented, and stared, "I'll do it."

"Oh, the dare master? What else would I choose then, other than…Fire Bomb."

Childish 'oo's were heard around the room, as if it were a play ground fight. Everyone was more interested now, and scoot in a bit closer. "Alright then Naruto, c'mere." They met at the middle, and Kiba listed the three dares that were fireball to him. Naruto made an expression of confusion and pleasure.

Naruto performed his notorious Sexy no Jutsu first, and then approached Sakura, nestling up to her quite closely. "Oh Sakura, I love you so much, and I wish I was yours. Please take me, I'm so wet for you!" he exclaimed just before kissing the woman intensely, pressing his…her large breasts against Sakura's.

After a moment, they parted. Sakura blushed, and looked very confused, as if to ask, 'Did that just happen?' Laughter erupted from the group, and Kiba was the loudest. Naruto turned back, and joined in.

"Ah, alright…let's move on…" Sakura motioned, still bewildered, "No volunteers? I'm Perfect."

Temari timidly rose her hand. Hinata passed the list to her and explained each activity. Her face grew more and more horrified as this list went down.

"Uh, truth please." The desert kunoichi really was not sure what to expect, but after the first display, she was very weary. Minds as well get me off the list soon.

Sakura pondered a moment, and it clicked, "Y'know, I've been wondering for a while, are you interested in Shikamaru?" Sakura smiled sweetly, That has to get under Ino's skin.

"I thought that was clear? I am of course interested in the man." She spoke bluntly, "That's it? I was worried." Ino crossed her arms at the comment, but said nothing.

A few people chuckled at the blunt words of the woman, not really surprised. "Well then. Who would like to go next?"

Shikamaru motioned his hand, "I'll be the victim, I know what happens if you wait too long."

Ino's hand shot up immediately, "I will take the Perfect position. What'll be Pineapple head?"

He shrugged nonchalantly, "Dare."

Her mind racked itself for ideas on what to do to the man. She was annoyed with Temari, but that was not the girl's fault, so she wanted to vent on Shikamaru, the next best thing. "Strip down to your underwear for the rest of the night."

The man seemed to hardly care, and grinned at the woman's dare. He stood up, and removed the articles of clothing from his body. Everyone suddenly averted their eyes when his pants dropped.

"By the way, I'm not wearing underwear." All the girls in the room blushed and threw pillows at him. He took one and set it in his lap, while making a throne out of the others.

Sakura cleared her voice loudly to dissipate the awkward situation. "So uh, who's next people?"

"I think I'll take a stab at being a Perfect." Choji volunteered, and it seemed like half the room suddenly wanted to go next, but only one made it the clearest.

"My turn then for victim!" Lee announced, pounding a fist to chest proudly. "I pick Bubble Gum!"

Shikamaru mumbled in Choji's ear what it was, "Oh, I see, I see…so who to pick for you…" His eyes skimmed the room as if to really think about it, but he already knew who to choose. "The woman that you will retrieve your gum from will be Sakura."

Sakura was idly talking to Ino, only half listening to the game when she heard her name. "What am I doing?" She blinked quickly, a little lost.

Ino sniggered at her side while the rest of the room was quiet. Lee had quite the blush, and Ino elbowed Sakura, offering her a piece of gum. It clicked only then.

"I-I…"Sakura blushed, but she tried desperately to compose herself. No big deal. I've kissed the guy before…like five years ago. Her breath hitched as she guiltily enjoyed the small memory. She started chewing the gum, and stood up, walking towards the center of the circle.

Lee too, bravely made it towards the center, and wrapped an arm around Sakura's back naturally. He looked her in the eye, and smiled momentarily before firmly pressing his lips to hers. He sucked on her bottom lip lightly, coaxing her to open up. She apprehensively opened her mouth and was shocked at the immediate presents of his tongue. He brought his free hand up to her neck, and pressed her more firmly against him. The gum transferred, but he persisted a moment longer getting her to moan just loud enough for him to feel it against her back.

The man parted from her, and chuckled at her dazed eyes, "are you alright?"

She said nothing, only bringing her hand up to her mouth, and shyly turning away to sit. The whole room suddenly felt way too hot. Ino whistled, and others cat called at the two as they parted.

Hinata cleared her throat this time, and took the position as the next perfect. Shino, assuming it would be safe, volunteered as the next victim.

"W-what shall you choose to do then Shino-kun?"

Shino considered this heavily, not even looking at the list. "I'm stuck between two, though in this case, it's safer to go with Octopus I think."

Hinata grinned at that, safer? What makes him think that? She giggled, "well then, you should grope Kiba-kun."

A eerie smile crept to his face, "Tsk tsk, that's not playing by the rules."

"Huh?" Hinata looked started, not sure if she was familiar to alternate rules of the game.

"He's right, though it did slip my mind," Ino noted, idly looking at her nails. "If a man is the victim, and the Perfect is a girl, he gets to choose whether or not he wants to pick the gropee."

"O-Oh, I s-see…" Hinata felt bashful for having not known the ruling, but no matter, "well, then who are you going to choose t-to …grope?"

"You." The tone in his voice did not allow anyone to know his thoughts, and as usual, his collar hid his expression. "Unzip your jacket."

"Ah-AH….! Can h-he do that!" Hinata exclaimed, her voice higher than normal. It looked as though someone had splattered red paint across the girl's panicked face; she looked to Ino for help. The woman did not even bother to look up from her nail examination, and gave a thumb up.

Shino came to her, and awaited her to unzip her jacket. She complied, revealing her netted shirt and a sheer lacey bra. He grabbed both, slightly lifting them with his grasp. Under his breath, he mumbled "Lovely…", though the words were only audible to her.

He then left Hinata and her chest alone, and returned to his seat across the room. She shook her head, and snapped back to the room, and left the fantasy crazy land she had been in for the moments that Shino had fondled her. Determined not to be put down as weak, she stammered, "I'll be the next victim."

Naruto grinned, "I will be your perfect then." He sniggered, and awaited her choice.

"P-promise to repeat."

Like a light bulb had gone off in Naruto's mind, he waited a moment more, to make sure he got the wording right. He then whispered to Hinata, almost unable to control himself. Whatever he said earn him a punch in his arm.

"I Hinata, enjoy dominating my partner in the bed room, or anywhere else I chose to have sex." Hinata said it straight, no hiccups or stutters.

"…Is that true?" Kiba breathed heavily, not expecting anything like that to come out of Hinata, at least so confidently.

Naruto's eyes were wide, "You better believe it." He lay back on the ground, remembering their teen years together.

"Ah, yeah…let's carry on. Next?" Sakura spoke, hoping to lower the sexual tension of the room.

The pantless ran raised his hand, "I'll be Perfect."

"I think it's time for a double dare," Kiba chuckled, taking the victim spot.

"I see," Shikamaru wondered for a moment, and eyed the table behind Kiba, "Chug the remainder of the sake bottle behind you, and…" his eyes searched out the women, "And kiss Hinata."

"That's it? That's nothing. I think that's happened all on its own, ha ha" Kiba finished the bottle, (there was not much), and crawled to the Hyuuga, who did not seemed to be bothered in the least. Though, to her surprise, he took it a bit far, having also grabbed her breast seeing as her jacket was still open.

"Oh Kiba…" she rolled her eyes; the occurrence was in fact common when Kiba was drinking. She punched his shoulder like she had done to the Kyuubi man.

"I think uh, I'll take the next victim spot. I'm only choosing Cherry Bomb, so it doesn't really matter," Sakura straightened herself up.

"Actually, it does matter" Shino noted, taking the Perfect position, "I am guessing you only know the first part of Cherry Bomb."

The group became a little more interested, Shino was apparently a know-it-all when it came to the game Perfect Ten. "Huh…?" Sakura became nervous.

"Cherry Bomb is supposed to have two choices for the Perfect to learn about, the victim's first time, or a sexual fantasy. I suppose you only do the first."

"Actually, I have only ever known about the second one…" She looked at Ino for help like Hinata had done.

"He's right. I didn't mention it last time because we were all virgins anyway." Ino, laughed a little, "though in your case it might not matter. Who doesn't know about you and Sasuke back then?"

"Let's go with your fantasy Sakura," Shino suggested, "and who with, of course."

Sakura sighed, "I would love to be taken to a pond in the middle of the night, only lit by candles and moonlight for skinny dipping, let's move on-,"

"Whoa there, who with girly?" Ino inquired, fully knowing that there was a someone, she was not sure who though. The girl had been sighing about some guy for months.

"…"

"C'mon, who is it?" Shino asked, no knowing who would have the girl all bent about.

"…ee…"

The whole group looked around confused. "Who?" Naruto inquired, nudging the girl.

"Can't I get out of this!" She yelled, standing up, glaring at Shino.

"Why are you so mad, you chose it!" Shino replied, amused with her frustration.

"I…forgot that I had to say who." She was blushing furiously, and though her fib fooled few, she pouted.

"Oh, I get it, I know who! It's L—" Temari started to state when Sakura's outburst caught everyone off guard.

"IT'S LEE DAMNIT!" Sakura sat down again, and stared at the wall behind Ino, a crimson blush heating her face up to the point of her chugging a bottle of water.

The room grew very silent, and Choji loudly yawned, "I'm the next victim."

Lee smiled, "I'll be your perfect, what do you want left on the list?" He was not sure if he could stop the giddy feelings of youth from over taking him.

"Not feeling too risky, I think that I'll take Sitting on a Cloud with Ino."

"Nice choice my good sir!" Lee chimed.

Choji and Ino both stood and left the room, Ino knowing that Sakura had a decent sized hallway closet, "Be back in three!" She laughed, not sure why she was chosen.

They squeezed in together, and noticed that the only light source was a very dim bulb. Ino looked up at the man, and he smiled at her broadly. They both laughed together, though Ino still seemed a little confused, "not interested in any other cute girls?"

"Why would I, when I have the most beautiful one here?" He swept her bangs aside, and gazed at her eyes.

"You just say that Choji. You don't have to be sweet to me, I know you've been worrying about me an-!" She was cut off by his sudden kiss. It held a mild hunger to it, but it also had a sweetness. His hands found her hips and brought her much closer. She was not sure if she wanted to protest or not, so she continued to stand there dumbly while he kissed her.

He stopped the kiss, and rose his eye brow at her, "You have been on a rage for over 3 years about Shikamaru's and your fight."

"That…has nothing to do with what you just did." Ino crossed her arms as best she could and glared at him like a child. "What do you think you are doing? What happened between Shikamaru and I is our business, and just-!"

He shut her up again with another kiss, this one much more persistent than the previous. He swept his tongue over her lips, as if to taste what might come later. He pressed his forehead to hers, "a lot of people think I am a saint for how long I have waited. Everyone else calls me a fool. At this point I am inclined to believe the latter."

"What are you talking about? You are being so cryptic!" She huffed, not sure if she really knew where this was going.

"Ino, I am in love with you, to the point that your happiness outweighs my own. At this point though Ino, it wretches me to watch you hurt yourself over something that will not change. I have decided to take matters into my own hands. Whether you fall for me, or move on completely, I want to help you."

The blond wanted to throw a hissy fit like a toddler. She felt an annoyance…and something she could not quite pinpoint. "H-how could you be so selfish?" she sobbed, pounding her fists against his chest, "how do you think you can just fix my problems? How do you think you can just, just kiss me all better!" Ino was almost yelling at this point, but none of her words caused Choji to back down.

He lowered his mouth to her ear, "I want you all to myself Ino. If I can't have that, I want to at least draw you back out to the real world. You cannot hide behind seclusion and missions forever."

Ino buried her face into his chest, and sobbed once more, tears drenching his shirt, "what do I do? How do I start again?" She asked, muffled by the fabric, "I'm lost."

Choji chuckled, "I'm not a very good friend to have let this go on for so long, am I? Though, I think that all you can do is forgive Shikamaru." He tilted her chin up, and gazed at her, "cheer up beautiful. If you need anything in the world, I am here for you, always."

She bonked his forehead with her own, and smiled sheepishly, "I know, sometimes I need a reminder though."

He nuzzled her nose, and paused for only a moment before kissing her again. She returned the kiss strongly, nipping his bottom lip lightly, and then sucking it. He traced his tongue again over her bottom lip, and found that the rest of her mouth now accessible. He pulled her in as close as possible, and squeezed her rump. They broke a part, suddenly needing the air they were lacking. "Only the gods know how long I have wanted to touch all of this. I do not care if I over step the teammate boundary tonight. Tomorrow, you can yell at me all you want, till your heart's content, but right now…"

Ino felt shocked by his words, but before she could respond he started trailing small hot kisses down her neck, his hands sliding up her torso agonizingly slow, the only pressure coming from his finger tips. She groaned, feeling limp to his actions, "Cho—ah!" He pressed her breasts together, and blew a raspberry in her cleavage.

They both laughed, realizing how ridiculous everything about this was, "I have been dying to do that too…" He grinned at her, and kissed her forehead, "y'know we've definitely been in here longer than 3 minutes." The man turned the door knob, and they both felt a rush of cool air hit them.

"That…was nice." She smiled at him, and laughed, heading back towards the lounge. They were greeted with eight pairs of eyes, and they simply laughed together, returning to their respective seats.

"Ino, what happened in there? You've been gone for nearly 15 minutes!" Naruto questioned, blown away.

"Had a nice heart to heart chat, and wait…that long? Why didn't you come get us?"

Sakura tilted her head at Ino, and caused the blond to stare back, "…yes Sakura?"

"You have a hicky in the shape of a butterfly right here." She poked it like a little kid, and then made a face, "it seems chatting wasn't the only thing going on."

The whole room seemed to start staring at Choji. He looked around and laughed, smiling and shrugging, "I got carried away, my bad?" He winked at Ino, and she smiled, shaking her head at the man.

"So wait, if we were in there for so long, why didn't anyone come get us?"

Sakura rolled her eyes, "Ino, it was your turn anyway, and you had bones in a closet. Temari was merciful. She almost got up and threw Kiba in." Ino rolled her eyes, but smiled at Temari, giving a thumb up. "Anyway, since the first round finally ended…round two? No mercy."

"I'll be perfect," Shikamaru nodded, I hope whoever it is chooses something good.

Hinata rose her hand and stood, "I'll take dare." She felt brave with her choice, and hoped she would not be regretting this sudden surge of bravery.

Shikamaru tried to keep a poker face, this is too perfect. "If I'm stuck like this, I wanted to bring someone down too. Hinata, give us a strip tease, only down to your panties."

"B-but…"She had finally zipped her jacket back up after what Kiba did, and now… "F-fine."

Nervously she stood in the center of the circle, and slowly started to unzip her jacket. The interested members of the group bunch together on one side of the circle to all watch. She slid it down to her elbows, and then proceeded to unbutton and unzip her skirt. She shimmied the fabric off her hips revealing a matching pair of underwear to her bra, and at this point, most of the people in the audience started to believe this was not her first time. She bent over seductively to push the skirt all the way down to the ground, and stepped out of the abandoned skirt.

An audible gulp came from a few men, particularly her teammates and an ex-boyfriend. "Who knew…"Kiba said, Shino beside him nodding in agreement, neither of their eyes leaving the figure. She caught Shino's eye, his glasses having slid very far down his nose, and winked. Her long navy tresses swung to one side as she pulled the remainder of the jacket off. It pooled at her feet, but few notice as she started to remove the netted shirt.

She closed her eyes and unhooked her bra, letting the straps fall as the cups were held in place by her hands. With a deep sigh, she turned away from the men, and smiled at the girls, who all giggled, and uncovered her breasts. As a finishing touch she threw the bra over her shoulder to the boys.

"Wow that was more than I expected." Lee commented, a blush full on his cheeks.

Shino did not move, even despite the warm fabric that landed in his lap.

Hinata sat by Ino instead of returning to her spot beside Kiba, and held her knees to her chest, her hair covering the majority of her breasts. She smiled deviously, not really minding the eyes.

Shikamaru leaned in towards Choji, "I think that only worked because Kiba and she took like 3 shots each."

Naruto stood up, and broke the silence, "Though that was a wonderful show Hina, I suppose we shall continue. I'm taking victim."

After a small discussion with Ino, Sakura raised her hand, "I'll take Perfect, so pick your poison."

"I think I'll give my try at Bubblegum."

Sakura immediately started laughing, "Oh that's too good. Got the perfect guy. Kiba!"

Kiba made an expression of disgust as Ino handed him a piece of gum. "Really Sakura?" he grumbled, and she only smiled waving at him. The two stood awkwardly together in the center of the room. Naruto eventually took initiative, and kissed Kiba. Though, everyone else sort of felt it was more of an attack. Naruto bit Kiba's bottom lip, trying to get him to just give him the piece. Kiba awkwardly tongued the piece to him, but Naruto dropped it. After two more minutes of bickering, growl, and aggression, Naruto managed to retrieve a second piece of gum.

"God, that was worse than mom throwing me out of the house when she was in heat." Kiba shook his head, glaring at Sakura.

"Wow, your mom's a bitch," Shikamaru replied.

At that moment, Hinata, and to more of everyone's surprise, Shino started laughing madly at the statement.

"I don't get it." Kiba tilted his head in confusion, but resigned to lying on his back.

Lee cleared his throat, "I would like to be the next Perfect. Who would like to be my victim?" Ino shrugged across the room, and stood up. "I'll do it. Promise to Repeat."

"Ah, excellent!" he beckoned her over, "say this…" he whispered in her ear, and she smiled.

"I will take the days of youth and continue to live them, and apply myself to everything I do with my life!~" She felt ridiculous, but she also felt good about the statement.

She sat down, and noticed that it felt much warmer in the room. Shikamaru spoke, "I'd like to go as victim next."

A few murmurs were tossed around the room, but no one was sure they wanted to be the Perfect for the pantless wonder. Temari shook her head, and rose her hand, "I'll be your perfect. What'll it be Shika?" She crossed arms over her chest, and stared at him.

"What're the chances? I was going to choose you for Sitting on a Cloud," he stood up, and grinned at the woman.

Her jaw drop, trying to think of a way to protest, "I am not getting in to a tight closed space with you and no pants."

"But I want to get into your closed tight space," he winked.

Immediately everyone tried to think of something that was not Shikamaru and Temari. "Look here, for the poor girl's sanity, wear some pants for the closet session." Ino looked at Temari sympathetically.

"Sweet, I earned my pants back."

Since Temari had no other excuses, she followed Shikamaru out the door to the hallway closet, and squeezed in with him. She leaned against the wall and stared at him, "just because I do like you does not mean I want to be forced into some crazy closet session with you."

"Since we're here though…" he quickly embraced the woman, and stared into her eyes intently. She had a look of protest, but there was also an under lying sense of interest. "I mean, why waste the alone time?" He inched closer.

Temari sighed, but a grin replaced her annoyance, "I suppose…" she eagerly pressed her lips to his, and held herself a lot closer. After a moment they back away from each other.

They cuddled together, and laughed lightly, "we probably shouldn't get too in depth, or we'll go over time." Temari laughed, rolling her eyes.

"It can wait till later."

"Are you going to finally tell them that we're together?" Temari rose a brow at him, "it should be fine, now at least..."

Shikamaru sighed, "I guess...though I was not expecting...that," thinking about the long session that his teammates had early in the very closet they stood. "Probably time to return."

"Fair enough," Temari kissed the crook of the man's neck, and slipped out.

They returned to the room, and instead of splitting they sat beside each other closely. Ino eyed them, but looked away annoyed. Choji caught her attention, 'come here' he mouthed. She replied, 'why?', but he just motioned her over. She rolled her eyes, and obliged the man's request. He pat the empty spot beside him where Shikamaru had been sitting.

She could only smile, and plopped beside him and rested her head on his shoulder. "Thanks," she whispered, stealing his hand.

The group ended their chatter, and grew quiet after Kiba announced his desire to be the next victim. Hinata bursted, "I'll be his Perfect!"

"Hinata, you don't need to be my Perfect, you're already perfect!" Kiba blubbered, receiving quickly a sharp jab to the ribs from Shino. "So I want to do Octopus..."

The color quickly left the woman's face.

"...But I want you to assign the person," he smiled at her, she felt immediately better.

Hinata pondered for a moment, trying to decide who..."I think you should molest Naruto."

"Again with Naruto?" Kiba wanted to protest, but he knew it was futile. He crouched down, and then pounced on Naruto. The room erupted with cheers and laughs. Naruto protested and cried out, but no one helped.

"Whyy!" Naruto bemoaned, trying to crawl away as his 'package' was handled. "Ah!"

"Kiba might be having too much fun," Ino giggled, "Sakura, maybe you should tap him out."

Sakura looked at her amused, and nodded. Instead of helping Naruto though, she jumped on top of Kiba. "Dog pile!" she yelled, bemused. Ino shrugged, and joined with Lee, the group wrestling each other. Naruto yelped, being crushed by so many people.

"Choji, please..." Naruto made eye contacted, and the large man sighed with sympathy. He got up and pushed everyone else off, and helped Naruto to his feet.

Giggling and laughter still continued as a pile of people lay scattered. After a moment of regrouping themselves, and crawling back to their seat, they proceeded with the game.

"We are getting so absolutely silly." Sakura smiled brightly, satisfied with the torture of Naruto, who was now hiding between Shino and Choji across the room. Lee and Sakura looked at Naruto, and speculated if they should get him again.

"It's all good fun!" Kiba had managed to find another bottle of sake, and Ino shook her head.

"You're lucky that my good stockpile is locked up," Ino glowered at him for having helped himself to her drinks behind the bar. She released a big breath, "well shall we continue? Whose turn is it?"

"I think I should go before I end up with something too far-fetched," Choji spoke out, and waited to see who his Perfect would be.

Since no one jumped to the opportunity, Shino cleared his throat, "I'll do it. What shall you be doing off of the list?"

"I think I'll stick it safe with truth."

Shino rose a brow, "there is nothing safe about this game." His collar hid his expression, and thought about the options at hand. There were always things that people wished to hide... "What is something that you have done that you admit was creepy, and maybe even illegal?"

Choji kept a poker face, and said nothing. I really have to think about this...I have definitely done some questionable things. He looked at Ino out of the corner of his eye, especially pertaining to her...

He pulled on his collar, feeling very nervous about the question addressed towards, "You've got me Shino, I've done a few questionable things..." He could not think of any way to stall or get out of the question. "You see I uh..." his face flushed.

The whole room was silent watching, wondering what did Choji do?

"Well you see I use to uh...um, you see..."

"What could you have possibly done that has you so nervous? Do some peeping?" Naruto joked, but when Choji's expression worsened, "who? When?"

"...en no was one...I uck...low..."

"Speak up!" Shikamaru called to him, Choji choked a little.

"When Ino left on solo missions sometimes, during long missions, I would sneak into her room and smell her pillows...and uh...maybe took a few panties." Choji released a deep sigh and looked at the ground.

"Choji, you are so hardcore," Kiba yelled, excited for no real reason.

Ino looked at him horrified, and stood up, "I thought I was going insane! That is where my fucking underwear was going!" She hit him with a pillow repeatedly, and cussed at him for taking her underwear. "My silk ones are gone! And my ruffled ones! HOW MANY DO YOU HAVE!"

Choji winced at the question, and hesitated, "erm...maybe twenty?"

"Give them back," she demanded, crossing her arms.

"It's not like I carry them around Ino."

She made a face of disapproval, but sat back down; only after she punched him in the arm did she lean on him again.

"I think that this game only gets better with age," Sakura commented, "I want to go next. That list is looking really unfriendly. Someone Double dare me."

Ino and Naruto both shot up, and glared at one another. Silently they went to the hallway for a few minutes, with a few giggles from Kiba, and then they returned.

"Naruto is truly the better choice." Ino smiled sweetly at the pink hair girl, and waved.

Sakura suddenly felt a little less comfortable.

"Sakura, I have decided to hide this ribbon on your body, and then allowing Lee to perform a cavity search on you for your first dare," Naruto laughed, "I have a worse chicken prepared if you want to back down."

She was speechless, but fully believed that he would have a worse back-up plan. "Should I meet you in the hallway?" She gave a forced smile, and stood up.

They disappeared to the hallway together, and after a few loud outbursts, they returned. Sakura stood in the center of the circle, and waited. Lee approached her, and smiled at her brightly. Standing beside her, he whispered to her, "I'll be gentle, don't worry..." he started searching her shirt first, his hands wondering blindly for the ribbon. He slipped a few fingers in Sakura's bra, surveying the crevices. "Doesn't seem to be present here..." he mumbled, kneeling at her feet. His hands made their way up her skirt, and felt each thigh thoroughly. His thumb lightly rubbed against her woman hood, and hands flew up to her mouth. He grinned to himself, but continued on to the higher underwear line.

"Ah..." he pulled the bow out of the ribbon, and it fell into his hands. "tied so low on your hips," he was mumbling again, too pleased with the whole situation. The only down side was that they had company.

Everyone seemed to exhale at the same time, the dare having left them in such anticipation. Sakura blushed, and turned to Naruto, "S-so what am I doing for my second dare?"

She almost did not want to know.

"You have to kiss everyone in the room that you have never kissed before. Who would that be, anyway?"

"Whew, that's uh...easy. I have kissed...Naruto, Ino, Kiba, and uh, Lee," she started with Temari.

"Make it good!" Kiba called.

"Yeah, agreed!" Ino whistled.

She kneeled at level with Temari, and the sand nin giggled, "alright then." They held each other's necks and deeply kissed. Cheers came from all over the room.

The two parted and laughed, and then Sakura moved in front of Shikamaru. "Pineapple head, you're not getting that." She leaned over, and just gave a simple kiss.

She crawled along the circle skipping Kiba, and approached Shino. She gave him an apprehensive look; he unzipped his collar enough for his face to be revealed fully. She leaned in with the intention of just giving a small kiss like she did for Shikamaru, but was surprised when he grabbed her and dipped her down, deepening the kiss.

Her eyes grew wide, and he soon ended the kiss. "Hey, if I'm getting a kiss, should at least make it a good kiss." Sakura grinned, knowing that even though it was unexpected that it was fun.

She gave him one last looked and scooted past Naruto, and looked at Choji. She gave a glance at Ino, and she only smiled sympathetically. Sakura then gave a quick kiss to him, and then moved onto Hinata.

The nude girl gave a look of, 'I know how you feel', and they both each other a sweet long kiss. They parted, and she sat beside the girl and leaned back on her hands, "Done."

"Who wants to go next, I'm Perfect!" Kiba announced, "it better be fire bomb, or you should just wait for a different Perfect." At that point Fire bomb, Cherry Bomb, and Bones in a Closet were the only things left. Temari, Shino, and Lee looked at one another, wondering who would take the hit.

"Alright, I'll go for it. I'm interested," Temari stood, crossing her arms over her chest. "Throw your best at me."

"Alright, I will, though I usually have male challengers," Kiba sat and thought hard, "I can think of the first two, but the third dare is always the hardest to think up." He looked around the room, and thought hard, his eyes focused on Shino, the teammate a little annoyed.

"Well...?"

"Switch clothes with Shino will be part one." The dog man held his chin in his hand, and nodded his head like this was an excellent idea, "afterwords, drink a shot out of Shikamaru's belly button and then let everyone cop a feel of your ass."

"That's quite the list of dares," Sakura chuckled, looking at the brave woman, "why don't you use the extra bedroom to change?"

Temari and Shino looked at one another and shrugged, leaving the room. After several minutes passing, they finally returned. Temari dawned over sized Capri pants, several layers of shirts and vest, and his high collar jacket. The only difference was that she kept the hood down, and the collar was unzipped.

Shino on the other hand found himself wearing a lot less than before. Netted sleeves were revealed underneath the short skirt and the jacket collar that did no job at hiding his face. A grimace remained on his lips as pulled the skirt down.

Chuckling and giggles were scattered around the room, but no one wanted to stand out too much lest they angered them. "Alright Shikamaru, on your back." He laid down in the center, and Kiba poured a mystery drink in the man's naval. "Lucky I'm still wearing pants, this could be a lot more awkward for you," Temari eyed Shikamaru, and then pressed her lips to his skin while slurping the substance out. She sat up after she was finished and looked around, her cheeks a little red.

"That was nice…" was mumbled by Shikamaru, a grin on his lips.

Temari then went around the circle, several people using two hands, had her butt grabbed, and returned to her seat at long last. "Well, that wasn't too terrible."

"I want to be victim next!" said two voices simultaneously, Lee and Shino looking at each other. They glared, knowing that they were both after the same thing. The two rock-paper-scissor for it, and Shino lost. He sighed deeply, and leaned over to Kiba and stole the sake bottle. He chugged it, and stopped, wiping his mouth.

"I'm going to need it."

Lee cleared his throat, and Choji, to his surprise, nodded having decided to be Perfect for Lee, "I suppose it's Bones in a Closet?" Lee nodded, "well Lee, go get in the closet with Sakura."

"I don't think Sakura can handle any more of the man, she looks like she might faint," Ino giggled, whispering to Choji, "I wish I had figured this out sooner, and this might not have been so traumatizing. You've done this both times too."

The man chuckled, and nodded "I know."

Sakura and Lee slipped out of the room together, and entered the cramped closet. They stood, and large browed man just looked at her, unsure if he should do anything more. He had already received more tonight than he would have ever thought in his wildest dreams. Her breaths were heavy, nervous about being alone in a closet with him again. She never would have thought that it'd happen twice in one life time.

"Oh Lee…" she started, "so much has changed since the last time we were together alone." He touched her cheek, feeling the warmth of her blush. She leaned into his hand, not at all minding the attention. She released a content sigh, and hugged the man tightly. Lee squeezed her just as hard back, the embrace bringing warmth and comfort. Sakura raised her head, "I'm sorry—oh!"

Lee placed his hand over her lips, "you do not need to be sorry for anything, as far I am concerned, you have done nothing wrong." Lee then set at arm length, "Sakura, with your permission—hm?" He found that she now held her finger over his lips, "whatever it is, do not ask." She dropped her hand to her side, and looked up at him, her face fully flushed. He suddenly understood her words for what she really meant. Lee leaned in and kissed her with no reservations. He dragged his fingers through her hair, nipped and bit her lips, and explored her mouth. His lips left hers and trailed down her jaw and neck, her scent entrancing him further.

Sakura mewled quietly, unsure of what she should be doing. Her hands searched his body blindly, feeling his hot skin and toned muscles as she slipped under his shirt. "Ah-!" her breathed hitched as she found that his hands had wondered up her shirt as well.

They then broke apart, panting and still wanting to continue. "It's probably been long enough, it's probably best that we return." Lee spoke to her, and nuzzled her neck one last time before she opened the door.

"Yes, let's return."

The two of them returned to the room, and they received little notice from the people chatting. Soon though, the room held quiet, and Shino and Ino looked at one another.

"Look Ino, I know what you are thinking, and you really shouldn't go down that path."

"Shino, darling, whatever could you mean, can't you accept a simple challenge?"

"It'll be more information about me that you would wish you would have never learned, trust me."

"Whatever you have to hide cannot be any worse than Choji's big secret or Kiba porn collection." She crossed her arms, not backing down.

"Alright, fine. You want to know it all? You sure you can handle this?"

"Can I handle it? I think we can all handle your little fantasy."

"Where should I start then, I've got hundreds of them. Handfuls on each of you, or maybe you just want to know about the ones pertaining to someone particularly? The things I come up with make Jiraiya's novel's look like teen rants."

Ino started to look a little nervous; maybe I did pick the wrong fight… "Look, whatever it is, it's not a big deal. So you've got a few on all of us girls? I'm sure at one point all the guys did."

A few guys nodded, knowing that they did. "Ino, there were a few times when I wanted…" and Shino kept carrying on, Ino's jaw dropping, and her face redder than Kiba's tribal marks. Hinata laughed lightly have not ever suspected of such perverse ideas to come from her teammate, "if you think it's so funny, when you and I were on this mission a few years back…"

Shino ranted for twenty minutes straight, the whole room was silent. Hinata fainted when Shino finished talking about her, and all the men were severely uncomfortable with what he had said about several women they all knew well. "See what I mean? I should have shut up after Sakura…perhaps I drank too much."

"You are…very detailed…" Kiba noted not sure if that was good or bad.

The whole group learned a lot too night. Sakura did not object to kissing people, Lee was incredibly well loved, and Shino was downright…wrong, perverse, disgusting…sometimes. Everyone felt much worn out after the two game sessions.

"Maybe we'll play again after someone else gets married," Sakura laughed, the silence having been too thick.

"Psh, so all the sad lonely singles can mope?" Ino laughed, and rolled on to her stomach, "it's too depressing to consider."

A rustling of fabric could be heard, and Shino was removing the jacket, and actually just stripping down completely from Temari's clothing, "I can't wear this anymore. It's too tight, and I don't care if I'm naked at this point. The girls gaped at his boldness, and the men just laughed.

"Shino, I know the feeling" Naurto commented, drinking water to sober up a bit more.

Shino sat at the table and chairs, and had at least underwear to be at least somewhat modest. He removed his glasses and rested his head against the table. Hinata started to come to, and she looked around, unsure of where she was at first.

"Where am I?" She spoke softly; rubbing the sleep out of her eyes, "Oh!" she looked down noticing that she was very much unclothed, "uh…d-did we start another round? Why is Sh-Shino unclothed as w-well?"

"Fed up with my clothes," Temari yawned, starting to remove some of Shino's clothes from her body. She went all the way to bra and panties, much to Shikamaru's chagrin, and started dressing right there. Though at this point very few cared, and since many were already naked…

Kiba and Naruto yawned, and got up. "We've got a mission sometime tomorrow, so we're heading out," Naruto stretched, and headed towards the door, "good night everyone!" they said simultaneously, and the others waved good bye.

"They've got the right idea, I think I will take my leave as well," Ino got up, and to her surprise Choji did too.

"I'll walk you home."

She smiled, and they said their good byes as well, followed by Shikamaru and Temari. The room remained quiet, the only sounds were Hinata's clothes. She put on her jacket, but hung her skirt and netting in her arms, "how many would notice this late anyway? I can't find my bra…" she laughed under her breath.

The woman gathered Shino's clothes as well, and approached, gently tapping his shoulder. No response aside from Lee and Sakura's sudden departure from the room, and Shino's breathing. Is he sleeping…?

A blushed consumed her face as she reminded herself of what he had said about her. "Shino…" she called in his ear, trying not to startle him, "wake up Shino," she squatted beside him, and shook his leg. "You should get home…"

"…" Shino mumbled.

"Hmm?" She leaned in, and tried to peek at him from underneath his arms.

"Hinata, if you move your hand any further, I'm going to strip you down again."

The girl flushed at his words, and fell backwards, shocked that he would say it. In attempt to save her, he tried to grab her, but he fell as well, getting Hinata to giggle, "Shino, you've h-had far t-too much to drink!" They lay beside each other awkwardly on the pile of pillows.

"Kiba didn't stop me, and you didn't either," He noted, and eyeed her, having forgotten that his glasses were on the table.

"I-I wasn't aware you were even drinking," Hinata defended, "Sakura kept talking to me."

"You're more perceptive than that," he rolled onto his side to get a good look at her. She played with her fingers as her head was tilted back do to the lack of support. Her jacket had fallen open, and she still only wore her underwear. Hinata's milky white skin filled the coat; his eyes were on her round perky breasts. He admired them silently, not sure if he should say anything more. "Another night…" he mumbled, collecting her attention.

"Hmm?" She looked at him unaware of his observant gaze, and smiled sweetly, "let's go sleep at my place, you shouldn't try to make it to the opposite end of the village so…inebriated."

"Very well" but instead of getting up, he crawled on top of her, startling the girl. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. She did not move, and remained motionless while anticipating his next actions. "Hinata…" he whispered, simply wanting to say her name.

"Hai…?" she replied, her breath quick, she leaned up a bit holding herself on her elbows. His eyes opened just slightly enough to see her closer, and he lowered his mouth close to her bare skin. He wanted to do so many things to her, though he was not sure where to start, or that he should start at all. She moaned a little, his breath hot at the crook of her neck. "Sh-sh-shino…" her stutter was whispered, and he took this as an invitation.

Shino lightly kissed her neck and collar bone, the feathery weight causing her breath to hitch every so often. "I have wanted you for so long. To me you are the most perfect woman in the world." His lips followed her curves and lines of her revealed chest, kissing her breasts and licking her nipples every so often.

"I-I had no idea" she mumbled, trying to keep her thoughts straight, "let's go to my house Shino…what if Sakura were to walk in?"

It seemed unlikely to the bug user, and he proceeded down her body. She collapsed and her back arched to his kisses. Shifting his weight to one hand, he used his other and gently glided his thumb against the moisture of her panties. Her hands covered her face, as if she could simply hide from his touches. He went up the length of her body, and removed her hands. She was biting her bottom lip and her cheeks were red. Shino could not help but feel satisfaction from knowing that he caused all of this.

"Alright, let's go to your house."

A/N; so it comes to an end…again. The group went through a lot of embarrassment, laughs, and awkward moment, (those were the best!)

Nah, my absolute favorite scene to write was Ino and Choji in the closet. Like…I was originally planning this smutting thing, but then it got real |: It turned out so much better this way, and I feel like it held much truer to Choji as a character specifically. I'll admit I do tons of OOC, but when I get that really good moment of in-character, I have to admire my handy work.

Mia-san, in and out!
