"Right, well, both if you can. I'm sure Tai'll want to know when he can get facial construction surgery." Aya giggled then inhaled quickly with the pain.

Kikuyo was instantly at Aya's side. "OHMYGOD Aya you're in lots of pain aren't you!?"
"Let her breathe, 'Kuyo," said Namihiko.

"Dude, it just hurts a little when I move a certain way. Don't panic everytime I moan a little, for God Sake. WHen is Su coming back...with my Oreos and Ramen...?" Sshe smiled, "God, I'm a sad excuse for a skinny girl." She was more informing Itaru than anything.

"Speak of the devil," muttered Namihiko as Su burst in, holding three packets of Oreos and a cup of ramen each.
"Food time!!!"

"YES! GIVE ME!!!" Aya cried and stole a packet of Oreo's and a cup of Ramen of of Su. Just as she was about to demolish them she looked up at Su, "I'll pay you back, Su. Thank you!"
"Oh, you don't have to! You saved my Tai, if it weren't for you that guy might have finished off the job! Thanks to you too, Kikyou and Itaru."

Kikuyo shuddered. "I don't wanna think about what that guy woulda done. Who brings kunai to a party anyway?!" She grabbed a cup of ramen and a handful of oreos.

"Someone willing to damage." Tai muttered looking at his bandaged cuts and Aya' stomach wound. "Dude, I am so sorry..." He began to sigh to himself, "All my fault..." Untill Su wigged him of course.

*Are you going to school today? I'm not because the snow at my house is up to the hoods of the cars!*

"Stop thinking that!" said Su, stuffing an oreo in Tai's mouth. "It's that guy's fault. What happened to him anyway?"
"I don't know..." said Kikuyo. "I hope he got in trouble for it."

*No, I'm at home too. My mom told me I wasn't going in with the snow. What about the Option forms? Do we get them Monday?*

Naruto Uzumaki, the Hokage strode into the room, "Aya! You're awake! Thank god, what were you thinking? Attacking that beef head? Who by the way, " He turned to Kikyou, "has been put in custody and is to be charged with two accounts of assualt. Tai's and yours Aya. Itaru, you wont get charged, or you Aya. Your participation has been classed as Selfdefence."

*I guess. We definitely won't be the only ones to have stayed at home today*

"Serves him right," said Kikuyo. She suddenly remembered something. "Oh yes! While you were unconscious, Aya, I did a sketch of you in your dress. Minus the kunai wound, obviously." She held up the sketchbook. "What do you think?"

"Niace, but why did you draw me when I was unconcious? Of all times?" Aya smiled through moutfuls of Ramen, her father kissing her cheek and telling her Hinata would be in in a little while.

"Nothing else to do. Anyway, it's not like I drew you unconscious. I drew you at the dance," said Kikuyo.
"It's too crowded here," said Su when Hinata came in. "Guys, let's leave Aya with her family."

Aya's parents took her back home and she lay on her bed for a good few hours watching television, getting food from time to time. Her mother knocked on the door, Aya could tell it was her because she had a distinct sharp knock in comparison to her father's. "Come in!"
"Sweetie, your friends at the door. Will I let them up?" She smiled.
"Yeah, thanks mum."

Kikuyo, Namihiko, Itaru, Tai and Su all clambered into the house.
"Aya?! Are you okay?!" called Kikuyo at once.

"Hey to you too. yeah, I'm fine. Pull up a beanbag!" Aya smiled as they all burst into the room.

Kikuyo threw herself onto the beanbag and took out her sketchbook. "Look at the picture I did of a cherry tree!" She always showed her pictures to Aya, even though she wasn't sure whether or not they bored her friend. Tai, of course, had no interest in her sketches and made that fact clear.

"Yeah, that's awesome! Is that why there's a seventh tree in our garden now?"

"Yep!" said Kikuyo proudly.
"I brought some dango," said Itaru. "Anyone want some?"

Aya gestured to the many empty bowls of Ramen and the empty oreos packets. "I may have gained my own weight plus my fathers in the past six hours. I 'm good."

"Let's watch a film!" said Kikuyo. "I brought loads with me!" Her bag was crammed full of DVDs, so they had lots of choice.

"You came prepared. I love that," Namihiko smiled and nuzzled Kikyou's cheek.

"Happy to help," said Kikuyo, nuzzling him back.
"Get a room!" said Su.

"Says you who snogged the face off of Tai in the hospital room...infront of the Nurses...while they overlooked Tai..." Itaru smiled slyly.

Su went bright red.
"Just pick a DVD, will you," said Tai, who was also very red in the face.

"Well, I opt for Yes, Man." Aya nodded, smiling.
