Temari looked up, smiling slightly. "Finally and yeah, he's the same age as you aparently. I'll buzz him now." She turned around, but heard the word present and turned back around. "Really? You're too kind, Chouji. Sometimes I wonder how you managed to get in this little group with that heart of your's." She laughed quietly, opening the small box hurriedly to see a fan. Pulling it out, she opened it to see it had three purple circles, much like one she had been admiring for a while in a catalog. "Ch-Chouji! You can't be serious! How did you know I wanted this one?"
Itachi raised a brow, holding the elevator open. "And why is that? Are you still upset about that silly fact I could beat you in everything, Otouto? Get in this stupid elevator. Either way the stairs are going to be a pain in the a**." He growled. Today he was going to make Sasuke talked with him, instead of just brushing it off as usual.

Letting out a frustrated growl, Sasuke turned back around and joined Itachi in the elevator, crossing his arms over his chest. "Don't call me that," he grumbled, not making eye contact with his brother.

"Oh! Um, whatever times best for you, I don't want to interrupt anything. I have lots of free time so any time will be fine with me." While he waited for her response, Kiba knelt down and whispered to Akamaru, "She looks pretty today, huh?"
"Let's just say a little birdie told me." He said with a bit of a blush to his cheeks. "Anyway, I'm going up to see the boss. I wanna get these stupid cuffs off!" Chouji picked up his bag once again and headed towards the elevators.

"Does it bother you, Otouto?" Itachi said it anyway, not caring if his brother was having a hissy fit. "What floor?" He questioned, already heading down to the last one. "I really haven't got all day. I do need to speak with Chouji and Temari you know..."

Wincing, Sasuke turned to glare at his brother. He'd just ignore that. "Third," he said, drumming his fingers against his arm impatiently. He figured he'd hang out in the lounge and wait until something came up. Otherwise, there was nothing to do.
Hinata nodded, wondering what Kiba was whispering to Akamaru, but did not question him about it. "Is six okay?" she asked, fishing for her keys. "I get out of work at five."

Temari grinned at him, nodding. "Thank you, Chouji! It's going right in my room." She smiled, not blaming the man at all. "I'll buzz him now." She walked over to her phone, pressing a button and putting it on speaker, waiting for some sort of response.
"Alright." Itachi shrugged, pushing the button. They'd obviously go down first, he had hit the down button, so there'd be quite a ride. "Anything going on besides the new boss?"

Sasuke shook his head. "Things have been pretty quiet as far as I'm concerned," he said, shrugging.

"Really? I've just got back from a little outing. It wasn't too bad. Just a lot of men to handle." Itachi leaned against the wall as the elevator went downward.

"Akamaru, no!" Kiba said firmly and pushed his dog down who was getting ready to jump up on Hinata. "You know better. You don't want to get her all dirty when she's on her way to work, do you?" Akamaru just tilted his head and wagged his tail. "Sorry, 'bout him. But, yeah, six would be great! I'll see you then and have a great day at work."
As Chouji waited for the elevator, he glanced quickly back over at the blond before looking away again. "Stupid thing, hurry up!" Normally he was a rather calm guy, but being stuck on a plane for a whole day and then a long taxi ride would make even the calmest of people frustrated and a little testy. "I hope Shikamaru won't be mad at me for being late!" he looked down at the brief case that had never left his sight for almost three weeks and at his wrist which was becoming raw from the cuffs.

"Mm." Sasuke chose to keep his eyes on the number above the elevator doors rather than his brother's face.
"Thank you, you have a good day too!" Hinata said happily, waving goodbye before getting into her car. Starting it up, she drove off towards the bookstore where she worked. She stepped out after pulling into the parking lot, brushing off her skirt and looking around. There were a few various stores, as well as the Nara Hotel across the street. Locking her car, she walked inside the bookstore to the sound of flipping pages and the smell of coffee from the small cafe inside.

"Yahoo!" Kiba said and jumped to his feet, startling Akamaru. "Come on Aka, let's go to the park to lose some of our energy. Then I have to think about where I'm taking Hinata later. Oh man, I gotta date!" he and Akamaru then ran down the street together towards the park.

Temari smiled at him, "Somebody must be paying a visit to the top floor, ne?" Feeling bad for Chouji, she tried not to annoy him and played with her new fan, being sure not the break it.
Itachi glanced at his brother, sighing. "You're not very good at conversing, Otouto." He tapped his fingers lightly, seeing it was only two more floors.

Shino had arrived at the hotel in a nondescript black convertible. He smoothed his coat, as if it had any wrinkles anyway, and made his way to the door. He opened it and glanced around. "I might as well pack up..." he murmered and decided to take the steps to his room he had rented. "I finally found an apartment."

"Maybe I don't feel like conversing," Sasuke said, eyes still averted.
