Sorry that once again I've taken a bit of a while to update. I was dealing with a bit of writer's block and I also was a little busier this past week. And as always, the only thing I own in the story is the plot and storyline. All rights belong to their respective owners. Some of the language and scenes may be adult.


The next day- around 4 PM


Naruto's POV


The doorbell rang. As I went to go get it, a lot of thoughts wandered through my head. This was my first time hosting a party this big, so I was a little nervous, y'know? Usually when it's my birthday I just have Duck Butt over or something like that. But this time, Sasuke encouraged me to go bigger. "You should do a party- just invite all of your friends and have some fun games and it'll probably be a blast. It won't be as good as mine though," he told me.

And that's how we got the idea. I told the boys to come at 4 and the girls to come at 6. The reason I did that was cuz was planning to play some 2k with the boys, then when the girls come we could play "Never Have I Ever" and do some other stuff. I also set up my Bluetooth speaker and asked Ino to bring hers. She agreed.

I snapped out of my thoughts and opened the door. When I saw who it was, I smiled. "Rashad! How are ya doing, bro?" I went up and we did our handshake. "Yo Naruto! I'm good man. Happy birthday by the way, bro!" I smiled. Rashad was a very chill dude, and he was studying international relations out in Kumamoto University. The reason he was in Konoha was because rent was cheaper here than the city and he was in Japan because university in America was way too expensive. He was like an older brother to me, and we shared a pretty similar taste of music.

I motioned him to come inside. Inside, my speaker was playing "679" by Fetty Wap. "Sit down for now. When all the boys are here, we'll go out to play some ball in the park. In the meantime, we can grab some food." I pointed to the table, where there was stuff like wasabi Doritos, tortilla chips and various dips. "Alright. Hopefully this party will be lit, cuz you deserve it, man."

Then the doorbell rang. I went to get the door, and I opened it to see Shino. "Hey Shino!" He was a quiet kid, and though he means no harm, he gives off serious serial killer vibes. "Hey there, Naruto. Happy birthday," he said, a little creepily.

After about five minutes, the rest of the boys came. Neji, Shikamaru, Choji, Duck Butt, Lee, Kiba, and Sai were all at my front door, screaming, "Happy birthday, dummy!" I was surprised, and my eyebrow twitched after they called me that. Sasuke was holding a cake, and a 16pk of candles. "I decided to buy this after realizing that you forgot to get one yourself, dumbass."

"Uh, thanks, Sasuke," I replied, embarrassed that I forgot to get my own cake.

After everyone settled down, we went to the park outside. Everyone wanted to get some ice cream, so we first went there and everyone got some of that delicious creamy goodness, y'know? Ok, that sounds a little gay, but I'm sure you understand.

After we finished our ice cream, we went to the park. I brought my Lakers ball with me, and all of us except Shino played some basketball. Shino wanted to look at some bugs, and Rashad offered to be ref, so we had a 4v4. The teams were me, Lee, Shikamaru and Sai against Duck Butt, Choji, Neji and Kiba.

The game was pretty fun. Since we had to be back, no one was playing extremely hard. In the end, Sasuke's team won, with Duck Butt getting 15 points, while I got 18 for my team. I also finally blew by Sasuke a couple of times, y'know?

After cooling down for 15 minutes, I checked my watch. It was 5:45, and the sun was almost down, which was an indicator that we should get back home. So we did. After everyone put some deodorant on, we waited for the girls to show up while munching on some chips and stuff and listening to Future.

After a little while, I heard the doorbell ring. I went to get it and opened the door. My eyes widened at what I saw. All of the girls that I invited were standing there, shouting, "Happy Birthday, Naruto!" I saw Sakura, Tamaki, Karin, Tenten, Ino, Fumiko and Hinata. While they weren't holding a cake, I saw Sakura holding a gift-wrapped box. "Thanks! And by the way, what's in that box, Sakura?" I was curious.

"You can open it when we get inside, Naruto," she replied, handing me the box.

After the girls settled down, Kiba decided to ask, "Yo Naruto, why are you holding that box? What's in it?" He was pointing at the thing I was holding.

After I sat down, I got to work on opening that box. My eyes widened when I saw what was inside. It was a Kobe jersey from his days with Shaquille O'Neal when they won 3 straight chips in the early 2000s. "Don't thank us, thank Hinata. She happened to be in Tokyo last week, and she found a store that has this jersey. And she was nice enough to pay around 8,500 yen just for you." I looked at Hinata for the first time today. She looked beautiful, with her hair down, wearing a red hoodie that had "HOUSTON" written on it, as well as some blue jeans, which kinda showed that she had some curves. Wait, what was I just thinking?! I blushed a bit. But I regained my composure after a bit.

"Thank you so much Hinata. You don't know how much this means to me. I really appreciate it," I said, smiling at her. She blushed a bit at first, but she eventually smiled. When I saw her smile, I felt my heart beat faster, y'know?

I was put out of my trance when Sasuke said, "So, what are we doing now?" I quickly answered, "How about we play truth or dare?" Everyone nodded in agreement, and they all seemed excited. I explained the rules just in case someone didn't know. "Alright, so we spin this bottle here. The person it lands on has to either complete a dare or answer a question of the asker's choosing. Now, everyone ready?" Everyone nodded their heads.

I spun the bottle. It landed on Lee. I dared him to do 20 one-handed pushups, since he's a gym rat. Sure enough, he completed it, though he did have to break a sweat.

Then he span the bottle. It landed on Rashad. "I dare you to post on your Snapchat story that you eat frogs."

"Alright, Lee. This good?" He showed us his phone. Sure enough, he did as told. Everyone snickered and Lee nodded his head in approval.

The party was a blast. Everyone had fun, Kiba was talking with Tamaki, and I even saw Sakura and Karin on good terms with each other.

After everyone had a turn, we checked the time. It was quarter after 9, and almost everyone had to go. It was only me, Hinata, Sasuke and Sakura now. "So, what do you wanna do now?," I asked.

"How about we play one of your games?," Sakura asked. I considered this.

"How many of y'all know how to play 2k?" To my surprise, everyone knew. "Alright then. I guess that settles it." I booted up the PS4.

First up was me against Sasuke. I chose the Lakers, while he chose the 76ers. I ended up winning, because I had Kobe but all Sasuke had was the likes of Tony Wroten, which made me chuckle a little, y'know? For those of you who don't know basketball, Tony Wroten is just a trash player, while Kobe is, well, Kobe.
