Chapter Four
Vying For Attention

Hazumi Akina gripped the lap of her peach and orange colored yukata, with a stubborn pout on her face. Her elder sibling, one of eight older sisters, Hazumi Kaoru decorated the youngers hair.

"I don't like this,"Akina pouted.

"Don't like what, Na-chan?"Kaoru asked, her almost illumionous emerald gaze focusing on a dragonfly hairclip.

"I don't want my team to come to my party,"Akina stated.

"Why not?"Kaoru asked in a light tone, as if Akina acted so stubborn all the time.

"It's embarassing!"Akina exclaimed as if it were the obvious.

"Oh, Na-chan, you look so beautiful!"Kaoru breathed excitedly, ignoring Akina's complaints.

"Are you even listening?"Akina asked with a slight glare and raised brow.

"Ah, the little orangeblossom has grown up, and will become a lovely young woman!"Kaoru continued. Akina gave an exasperated sigh and stood up, smoothing her yukata. The sliding door to the room opened revealing another young woman. This woman, bearing a white and light blue yukata, had short curled hazel locks, and as per trademark of the Hazumi clan, illuminous emerald eyes with the black slash mark underneath the left.

"Oh, Ran, isn't Na-chan adorable!"Kaoru exclaimed. Ran gave a soft smile to Akina. If there was one sister who understood the dramatics of Kaoru, it was Ran as she was the next youngest after her and third youngest from Akina.

"Na, Kaoru-chan, you're embarassing her,"Ran replied. "Here Na-chan, let me fix your bow." Akina obeyed and allowed Ran to fix the white bow in the back of her yukata.

Akina hailed from a large family. She had eight older sisters, herself being the ninth child to Hazumi Seto and Suzuki. Each member represented a flower, as their main jutsu's relied on flowers, and the fact that when their mother, Suzuki, gave birth to them, she bore them in room filled with their select flower. Akina represented the orangeblossom, stubborn but lovable in her ways. Kaoru was the plumblossom, her flower decorating her reddish violet yukata. Ran was the lily, understanding and kind.

Her eldest sibling, Haruko was the rose, elegant and romantic. Next came Sumire, the violet, always honest and respectful. Heza was the heather, who admirable in her nature was clever and witty. Hanami was the iris, and she herself was rather wise in advice. Yuri, though her name means 'lily', represented the orchid and she herself was refined and kind. Kaoru was dramatic, Ran understanding, and the last sibling to grace the Hazumi Nine (as what some of the village had refered to the nine daughters as), was Natsu, the sunflower, who was always cheerful and bright.

"Happy birthday Na-chan,"came another voice from the hallway. Akina looked up to meet the emerald gaze of a lovely pink haired woman, who dressed in a red yukata with dragonfly designs.

"Sakura-chan,"smiled Akina. Ran and Kaoru greeted the young woman with a friendly wave. Haruno Sakura was related to the Hazumi Clan, as the girls' cousin. Her father was the elder brother to Suzuki Hazumi.

"Here's your gift,"Sakura presented a long but small box to Akina. Her eyes lit up.

"Thank you Sakura,"Akina grinned.

"AKINA!"called a voice from the hallway. This voice, gentle in nature, beloned to Yuri. "Akina-oh, good afternoon Sakura-chan."

Sakura returned the nod with a smile.

"Your team is here,"Yuri smiled.

"GAH! ALREADY!"flustered Akina. "GET THEM OUT!"

"Akina! Be nice!"Sakura scolded bopping Akina on the head.

"But I don't want them to see me like this!"Akina presented herself.

Sakura sighed. "Na-chan, you look fine!"

"I look girly!"

"You look girly every day!"Sakura stated.

"Yeah but I look really girly today! I hate dressing up,"Akina mumbled.

"C'mon brat, lets get going,"Sakura said.

***

Sasuke noticed that the Hazumi Mansion held a pleasant scent of wildflowers upon the viscinity. Of course the array of scattered flowers over the beautiful property could vye for such nice smells. He inhaled once more the scent that lingered.

Beside him were the other members of Team 2, Yuki and Shiro.

When the sliding door slowly opened, he half expected to see Akina on the other side, however he was no so lucky.

Once it opened enough, a pair of women jumped inside and immediately glomped Sasuke. (Not that anyone could blame them.) Sasuke was suddenly reminded why he rarely went into public.

"SASUKE-KUN, WELCOME TO THE HAZUMI HOUSEHOLD!"squealed one of the girls.

"OY!"shouted a voice from the hallway. "Stop molesting my sensei!" Akina held her arms crossed and a look that said, 'Dammit! Don't embarass me!'

The two girls shyly giggled and stood up. The one in the yellow yukata was Natsu, and the one in the violet one was Sumire. "Sorry Na-chan."

"Na-chan?"snickered Shiro, before Akina bopped him on the head.

"Shove it Shiro,"Akina threatened.

Sasuke studied Akina's sisters. Not exactly one to fond of older siblings himself, he found her sisters to be amusing as they furthered the embarassment of Akina by hoisting her in the air singing a birthday song.

"Well, don't you look handsome today Sasuke-kun,"came the familiar voice of Haruno Sakura, who took a seat by Sasuke, watching the show.

"Sakura? What are you doing here?"Sasuke asked.

"For Akina's birthday of course,"Sakura replied with a slight giggle.

"I didn't know you knew Akina,"Sasuke stated.

"She's my little cousin, the brat. Her mom is the younger sister to my dad."

"Oh,"Sasuke replied.

"Happy birthday Akina!"came another voice.

"Hinata?"Sasuke questioned, by far puzzled.

"The Hyuugas are very good friends to the Hazumi's,"Sakura filled in the blank.

Hyuuga. If Hinata was there, than no doubt-

"Happy thirteenth birthday!"

Neji.

Neji himself was not suprised to see Sasuke there. But the slightly shocked look followed by the I-Don't-Care attitude that made up Sasuke amused him to no ends.

"Tell them to put me down!"Akina pleaded.

"Where would all the fun be in that?"questioned Neji.

He took a seat next to Sakura.

"Good day, Sakura-san,"greeted Neji.

"Oh, Good afternoon,"she returned the gesture.

"Good day, Uchiha-san,"Neji greeted Sasuke.

He wanted to say, 'Blow it out your pretty little ass Hyuuga!' but that would ruin the festive mood a little bit.

"Hn,"Sasuke replied. Neji smirked deviously. This was going to be fun.

***

"Uzumaki-sensei, what are you doing?"asked Hagane Aiji, donning a light blue and white yukata with a navy sash tied to a bow on the left side. She held a medium sized parcel in her hands and held a half-lidded gaze towards her sensei.

"I forgot to buy a gift for Akina-san!"Naruto cried out.

"Wouldn't it be easier to pick a gift out for her outside of the ramen section, Uzumaki-sensei?"Aiji suggested. Riho and Azusa sighed.

"What could she possibly want besides ramen?"asked Naruto.

"Well, she likes little stuffed bears, so how about we get her one of those?"Aiji pointed out. Naruto pondered this and nodded.

"Alrighty!"Naruto agreed.

While Riho and Aiji scanned the pit-o-stuffed animals, Azusa and Naruto held back. Azusa, not really liking the girly-ness that comes with stuffed animals and cute things, decided to keep his distance. Naruto was pondering why the girl wouldn't want ramen so he could put forth a good argument to Aiji.

Naruto was a good friend to the Hazumi Clan. Back when he was a chuunin, he once trained with and became friend with two of the sisters, Kaoru and Ran. He was 'adorable' according to the elder girls, and Akina liked him a lot, even if she was Sasuke-teme's student. The rest of Team 2 knew the girl from their days at the Academy.

"Here we go!"shouted Riho holding a polar bear stuffed animal in a victory pose. "There's the perfect present!"

"Now hurry up and pay before we're really late!"Riho commanded.

***

Like most adults at parties, Sasuke found himself slightly tipsy. As did Neji and Sakura. Sakura was a little more than most but kept downing them. The food was beyond delicious and even though he disliked most social events, the Uchiha was finding himself rather entertained and suprised at some of the naughty little jokes Hinata knew when she loosened up a bit.

"Sorry I'm late!"shouted a voice from the hallway. Sasuke turned his head to see Naruto standing there. Sakura had jumped up to greet him with a swift puch to the head.

"Ne, Naruto, you're late!"Sakura stated.

"I already said I was sorry!"Naruto pleaded.

"Well, you're forgiven. We've already started happy time without you. You three!"she pointed at the kids who immediately stiffened like military personnel in front of their commanding officer. "The brats are outside. Go. Now."

Fearing the drunken wrath of Haruno Sakura, they quickly paced themselves out the doors with their presents for Akina in tote.

"NARU-CHAN!" Sasuke nearly cringed as eight of the nine sisters literally pounced on an unsuspecting Naruto. Buried in a sea of glomping girls (Oh wouldn't Jiraiya wanna be here now!), he made sounds of protest that were muffled by the squeals of the girls.

"Naru-chan you never visit anymore!"pouted Natsu.

"Aww, you're so cute Naru-chan!"giggled Sumire.

"Alright! Alright! First Sasuke-kun, then Naruto-san! Don't you girls know there's laws against molesting people!"Sakura questioned. The girls backed away to their seats, and now clearly more than ever, Naruto could see the several cups of sake lining their areas.

A wicked little thought came to Sakura's mind. 'Ino-pig thinks Sasuke likes guys, eh? Lets sit Naruto by Sasuke and see if there's hints! I wont lose this bet!'

*For some reason Ino Yamanaka couldn't understand, she peeked up from her reading material and mumbled 'Forehead-girl' with a roll of her eyes*

"Naruto, why don't you take my seat!"Sakura offered. Neji and Sasuke gave eachother a quick glance before regaining absolute ice-bastard composure. "I'll sit by these horn-balls."

"Thank you Sakura-chan,"Naruto bowed in gratitude.

"Oi, we're not horn balls!"protested Yuri.

Sasuke and Naruto coughed in protest.

He took his seat. The small cup in front of him was currently being filled up with sake, from Sasuke.

"Uh, thank you Sasuke,"Naruto said. Sasuke smiled at Naruto and when he caught the eyes of Neji, he changed it into a smirk.

"Would you like something sweet, Naruto-san?"Neji asked passing down the platter of sweet desserts. Naruto grinned.

"I sure would!"he replied. Sasuke and Neji's eyes met with lightning clashes and glares.

Sakura studied this, her thoughts running wild.

'Oh no! Ino-pig was right! Sasuke IS gay!'

A look of panic overswept her face. When she was younger, the panic would be obvious as the fact of Sasuke being gay. However, she's older and doesn't want to lose one hundred and fifty dollars, especially to Ino who would never let her forget it!

'Hmm, I think Ino knew this all along! I gotta get her back! But how?'

She noticed how subtle hints were placed by Neji and Sasuke onto Naruto, then it all become clear to her.

'Both Neji and Sasuke like Naruto?! Wow, didn't see that one coming!'

Inner Sakura put in her two cents. 'I can change the bet with Ino-pig to which one will actually get Naruto! OH YEAH!'

"Oh yeah!"shouted Sakura absently. Everyone stopped to look at her. She lowered her hand and picked up her sake cup. "THIS IS GOOD SAKE!" Everyone returned to normal.

"So Naruto-san, tonight is the opening,"Neji stated.

"Tonight?"Naruto asked.

"Yes."

"Opening for what?"Sasuke asked in a stern tone.

"The new nightclub!"spoke up Heza Hazumi. "Me and my business partner have built a nightclub. It's guarenteed to be absolutely wonderful."

"Who's your business partner?"Sakura asked.

Heza placed her finger to her lips. "Can't tell, it's a suprise. People weren't supposed to know that I was one half of the duo that started the club, but SOMEONE-"she glared at Sumire, "told."

"Hey!"protested Sumire.

"What time does it all begin?"Naruto asked.

"Around eight. So make sure you don't have any missions!"Heza winked.

"It's been kinda slow lately,"Naruto admitted. "But, no missions means a lot of fun, dancing..."

Neji and Sasuke shared a fantasy thought bubble of Naruto dancing, sweat glistening off his tan hued skin, the wild movements of his hips to the heavy bass music.

"Sasuke-kun? Neji-kun?"Hinata poked them as drool began to pour from their mouths.

That lusty gaze tempting them, begging them...the roll of the hips, Oh God those hips. Being able to grind against that lithe muscular body, so close...

"Knock it off!"Sakura grumbled, knocking their heads together.

"Ouch! Sakura!"

"You're getting drool all over the carpet,"Sakura protested. Inner Sakura was giggling like a mad woman. 'They want Naruto so badly! I must instigate this!' "Naruto, what are you going to wear tonight? You got to look absolutely stunning!"

Hinata gave a playful glare to Sakura. She knew partially of what Sakura was doing and stiffled a giggle. Hinata was now convinced that Ino won the bet, however she had partial suspicion that Sakura was not done with the sexual preferences yet.

"What am I supposed to wear?"Naruto asked. Sakura giggled, despite the death glares Sasuke and Neji were giving her.

"A nice tight pair of leather pants, that means you can't wear underwear though,"Sakura piped. The Hazumi girls were giggling. Sasuke and Neji were attempting to think of dead puppies to avoid a nose bleed. "You should go shirtless! I would say fishnet but that's so cleche!"

Two of the Hazumis girls squealed in delight of the image of a shirtless Naruto.

Shit, thought the two boys beside him, as a small droplet of blood began to leak.

Neji, quickly thinking pretended to sneeze in a tissue. Problem solved for him.

Sasuke, thinking quickly bashed his head against the table. Problem...kinda solved for him.

"Oh, Sasuke-kun!"exclaimed Hinata tipping Sasuke's head back and plugging the nose.

"Sorry, must've drinken too much sake,"he mumbled. Neji attempted to hide a bark of laughter.

"Ouch, that lookslike it hurts a lot,"Naruto stated, taking Hinata's place by holding his nose and the back of his head. Sasuke began to blush. Neji began to fume. Sakura began to quietly giggle along with the rest of the Hazumi girls.

"Here, lets take him to the bathroom to get that cleaned up,"stated Haruko, the eldest of them all, stood up. She took one of Sasuke's arms, Naruto the other, and they helped him to the bathroom.

Sakura turned and whispered something to Hinata who blushed deeply and giggled softly.

***

"Naruto-san, in the linnen closet is a first aid kit, out there. Can you retrieve it please?"Haruko softly requested. The blond nodded and left. That's when Haruko, evilly smiled.

"You like Naru-chan?"she quietly whispered.

"Huh?"Sasuke asked.

"Do you like Naruto?"she repeated.

"Well, kinda, yes,"he admitted.

"You love him?"Haruko asked.

"What?"Sasuke blurted.

"Wow, you have really bad hearing for a jounin,"Haruko giggled. "I said, do you love him?"

Sasuke remained silent for a couple of seconds before answering, "Yes. Of course I do."

"You do what?"asked Naruto brining in a small first aid kit.

"Naruto, one more thing, can you go and retrieve Natsu, and tell her to come here,"Haruko requested.

He nodded and left.

"Adorable isn't he?"Haruko once more evilly grinned. Sasuke nodded. "You really want him don't you?" Sasuke nodded once again.

"Well...I usually don't do this, but since you're Na-chans sensei, I'll make an exception,"Haruko said.

"Do what?"

"When Natsu gets here you'll see,"Haruko smiled. Sasuke decided that it was a rather creepy smile.

"Yes Haruko?"came the voice of Natsu a few minutes later with Naruto.

"Natsu-chan, can you get me the 'healing' herb out in the garden,"Haruko smiled. Natsu chirped a yes and went off to get it.

"Healing herb?"Sasuke repeated once Natsu and Naruto were gone.

"It's a rare flower. Once you see it you'll probably never see it again. It's called a Sapphire Silk Flower, and it may just be the answer to any problems,"Haruko smiled.

"What kind of problems?"Sasuke asked, now very very interested.

"Well the petals of it provide a special aprodisiac,"Haruko stated. "Pour two drops into a drink and they become extra sensitive to touch so much that a single brush on the skin is pleasurable."

"You've done this before haven't you?"asked Sasuke. She ignored him with a silly giggle.

"Ne, Sasuke-kun, why do you always have to be so serious?"she chuckled. "It has a second effect, one that will benefit you quite well. Should Naruto truly like you back in the same sense that you like him, then he will be highly attracted to you."

Sasuke rubbed his chin. "Usually, I would try to win Naruto over with my natural skill. But I'll do anything to beat that Neji."

"I'll help you get it ready then,"Haruko clapped her hands together.

"Here's the herb, sister,"came in Natsu with Naruto. "Naruto tried to eat it because it smelled like blueberries."

"It did!"Naruto protested with a huff. Sasuke wanted to glomp the blond once he put on that little pout. Haruko grinned smugly.

"Thank you Natsu-chan. I'll go remedy it into a better form. Natsu, you may return to the party, try to keep the girls from glomping Neji-kun as well,"Haruko commanded. Natsu bowed and left, ever obedient to her elder sister.

"Naruto,"Haruko turned to face the blond. "Can you care for Sasuke for a minute?"

"Sure."

Haruko left the room, sliding the door closed, mischevious look never dissapearing from her face.

"So let's see, Sasuke-teme,"Naruto breathed, leaning in. Sasuke's blush could not be more apparent as his hands gripped his uniform, attempting not to ravish the blond right there and then.

He smelled nice. Not like ramen, which was Sasuke's first guess, but like oranges. Figures he would smell like his trademark color.

"Smell nice,"Sasuke mumbled.

"Huh?"Naruto asked.

"Nothing,"he quickly blurted out. Naruto's touches on his face were soft, a breezy caress here and there as he wiped the dried blood away. "Ouch, this is going to swell badly. You need to lay off the alchohol, Sasuke-teme."

"I'll be sure to remember that,"Sasuke noted.

Suddenly, Naruto laughed.

"What?"Sasuke demanded to know.

"I can't believe you slammed your head on the table!"he laughed.

"This is what makes serial killers, Naruto,"Sasuke glared.

"Sorry,"he kept laughing. "It's just funny...unexpected but funny."

"Shut up Dobe,"Sasuke replied.

Their eyes met. Midnight black to Ocean blue. Much to Sasuke's suprise, Naruto did indeed shut up. He also noticed a light blush on his face. They were starring at eachother. Naruto turned his gaze away from Sasuke's.

"Eh..all better?"Naruto asked.

Sasuke stood up and pinned Naruto to the side wall. "Not quite yet."

He leaned in, hearing Naruto's breath catch, and in a suprise, captured his lips in a chaste, but impressionable kiss.

'OH MY GOD!'Naruto's mind screamed, as his heart raced. A very evident blush graced his cheeks, and his ocean blue orbs were wide open.

"Here you go, Sasuke-kun-"

Haruko was interupted by the sight of Naruto and Sasuke kissing.

"Oh, Haruko!"Naruto blurted out, breaking the kiss that he was rather enjoying.

She held an amused look on her face.

"Here's the remedy, and some extra healing remedy for your nose,"Haruko stiffled a laugh. "I'll leave you two to your business."

Naruto belted out the door and Sasuke sighed.

"Perhaps you might want to use that,"Haruko suggested.

"You know, perhaps I will."
