Chapter 10


~Shikamaru was back to his old self in no time. Being with Chouji again and being able to actually sleep was a wonderful thing to bring you back to your old self. He definitely wondered if Kiba was experiencing anything weird in his old room and bed, but Kiba seemed like his usual self, loud, brash and obnoxious. So he figured things were ok. Maybe he had just imagined it? Dreamt it or something like that? It was totally illogical to him to have dreamt them or even imagined them, since he had never done so in his entire life, but it was even more illogical to think he had actually SEEN anything at all. Maybe he was under stress, missing Chouji being around? In either case it seemed like things had worked out for the best. Little did he know that things were NOT over with.
***********************************************************
~Naruto and Kiba were having the time of their life, they would often stay up late listening to music, watching movies on the portable DVD player he had gotten from Iruka last Christmas. Sometimes they would stay up late at night just talking or helping each other study, which was usually a bad idea since both of them did not share the same classes and ended up being useless to each other. Sasuke was there a lot, he would just sit around and ignore them till they pounced on him for help, after all he was the smartest person they knew, and who would actually help them, but after some good natured begging of course.

~At night when they finally crashed out from exhaustion, Kiba and Naruto were so tired neither heard the scratching from the wall next to Kiba’s bed or the slight shaking his bed liked to do. At one point in the night though, Kiba had woken up and groggily looked around and still half asleep mumbled for his pet dog Akamaru to stop making so much noise. He didn’t realize for a few precious moments that Akamaru had not come to college with him and that he was at home. When that certain piece of information finally waded its way threw all the haze in his brain, he jerked up into a sitting position and rubbed his eyes as he saw SOMETHING waist high run into his closet and the door shut behind it. A frown on his face he got up and went to the closet to investigate. There was nothing in there, not one single thing that could explain what he had seen. Maybe he had still been half asleep? Seeing things? That must have been it, after all he never slept with his closet door open so it wouldn’t make sense for it to have been open to begin with. Kiba being dense and pretty much an open sort of person, had no problem believing he had dreamt it or been half asleep and seeing things. So he went back to sleep and didn’t think of it again. When the scratching started up again, Kiba just ignored it and figured he was still half asleep or dreaming.

~A few days later the dorm floor awoke to quite a bit of cursing and an embarrassed green clad wearing Lee, trying to calm his irate lover. Gaara was never in a happy looking mood, but today he looked down right murderous.

~”What’s going on? Why the ranting and raving?” Naruto asked and Gaara turned his green eyes upon him and flashed what Naruto assumed was a frown, hard to tell when panda boy had no eyebrows. Lee, smiled sheepishly and put a soothing hand on Gaara’s arm as he looked to Naruto and tried to explain his lovers anger.

~”Well you see Naruto, we are having some trouble with the heating in our room…..since the day we moved into it, it has been extremely hot, as if the heater were on full blast all the time. We have had several maintenance men come and look at it but none have yet to find any problem with it. It got so hot last night that……well you see it was so bad that any…..ummm.” Lee stammered here and turned beet red.

~”It got so bad that Lee and I had to sleep in different beds to avoid any physical contact because it was just to damn hot that our body heat made it feel as if we were suffocating…satisfied blondie?” added Gaara straight forward, not one bit shy about his and Lee’s relationship or their sleeping arrangements. Lee stammered and continued to blush.

~”So what are you guys gonna do? There has to be something someone can do? There HAS to be a reason for the heat right?” Naruto explained, wondering why it was only their room that felt like that. As far as he knew all the other rooms were at a comfy temperature.

~”Yes well Professor Jiriaya has dispatched a professional heating and cooling technician from the city and has given us one of the empty rooms on the first floor till our room is suitable to live in once again.” Stated Lee, ever to diplomat and gentle man.

~Naruto fowned. Things were getting weird. Ok so there was no major big deal with the heating going out and incompetent handy men, but combined with the supposedly badly made mirror that had shattered, the lights always flickering and the odd little noises he could swear he could hear coming from somewhere in the walls by Kiba’s side of the room. He was starting to wonder if this stupid dorm had some sort of curse or some other malfunction. He was an architect major for goodness sakes and looking into the history of an old building or a newly build one on top of an older one was right up his ally. He promised himself that he would take sometime out this weekend and look into the newly built and the old Kingdom Hall buildings, to see if there was any similar problems in the original, could be something in the ground or surrounding area that could account for their dorm floor having odd growing pains.

~To bad that weekend he would be way laid and things happening that would put his search on hold. If not he might of found a lot of answers to things he might not be ready to find out. Alas, some things were just meant to be.

A/N-Yes I know its short, I apologize for the delay. After the sickness, had real life stuff happen, and the mood to write just went out of me, so hopefully I have gotten it back and will continue to update much sooner than this. Thank you all for your patience. Huggles and smiles Mija.
