Beautiful Disaster
Chapter one - Thoughts
Ino sat on her bed thinking of the one, the one she longed for, the one she wanted, the one where if he even touched her hand she would feel in heaven, the one and only Uchiha Sasuke. She sighed while falling back on her bed. 'I'm only making myself think that hes the one for me...man...this sucks.' She tightened her grip on her pillow, 'if only he would of noticed me, If only I wasn't so see threw to him...this wouldn't of happened.' As she stared up at the ceiling she could hear people outside, yelling, laughing, and playing.
She fidgeted her fingers, 'What would it be like if me and Sasuke were ever together?' Being 16 now, she finally had a real vision of a boyfriend girlfriend relationship not the prince rescuing the princess and living happily ever after. She was old enough to know it was only a tall tale people made up to hide the real harsh fact of reality, 'Prince charming is never going to saved you, and you'll end up with many broken hearts believing it. But...' she rolled over on her bed, gripping the blanket, 'I still want something.'
Seeing her mom and dad together all the time made her wonder, 'Why cant I have something like that?' Most of the people she knew were dating, 'Sakura and Naruto, Kiba and Hinata , Tenten and Neji...hell, there the most complicating.' Of course they all didn't start off well. There was a lot of rivalry with Naruto and Sasuke but, Sakura decided since Naruto was always there, always caring, always some how keeping her out of harms way, he was a keeper.
Ino slightly laughed, 'And to say, she hated him in the beginning.' Kiba and Hinata came after, still fidgeting her fingers she remembered how shy Hinata was when he finally confessed. She didn't really get it, but then he didn't really say it specifically, 'I really care about you.' can mean a lot of things. As a friend, like a sister, like a lover...thats the one he meant. Kiba was a hard one to get around, to this day he still gets jealous when his girls around other guys.
'Tenten and Neji...' Ino smirked and shook her head, they were some thing. It was actually Tenten who confessed. Ino knew the whole story because a hour after she confessed she called her, but thats what best friends are for right...? After Tenten had confessed pouring her whole heart to him he shrugged it off. He was always one to think he wasn't worth the love unless he earned it. As with Tenten, she thought the whole thing was a stupid scam.
And that he should burn with a passion. Ino slowly sat up shaking her head, 'Like she ever meant that.' Tenten was a hopeless romantic just like her so she kept trying. She vowed one day to get him to realize he was worth being with. Then that left her. She slumped, she really didn't have anyone. She tried the relationship thing with Shikamaru but that only crashed and burned. He was a chuuin now and didn't have the time to be her boyfriend.
They broke it off after a month or two, but the vowed to stay friends forever. 'How long is forever...?'People say it all the time. I'll be with you forever, I'll love you forever, always and forever be there for you. It was tossed around so much now it was like just a word you JUST say.' She slowly walked down stairs to find he mom and dad hugging and saying 'I love you' to each other. She stood in the door way leaning her head on the door post.
She smiled and thought, 'I wonder if I'll have a loving husband when I'm their age.' She started to walk toward the fridge when her mom stood up, "Oh mom, don't mind me! I'll be getting out of here soon." Her mom sighed with a smile. She walked behind her daughter and hugged her. "I love you Ino chan!" She smiled, as well as Ino. When ever her mom said her name she gave this ring to it. She liked it.
She squeezed her moms arm back to show she cared, "I love you too." he mom gave one more squeez and let go. "Me and your dad are thinking, before he goes out on another mission, going out of town for the weekend. When was it again?" Inoshi picked up his coffee cup and took a sip. Ino closed the fridge, opening her water she turned around to face her him. "Hmm...next weekend. Ino, you think you'll be okay here by yourself?"
Ino shrugged, "What ever. I'll be fine dad. I'm not a little girl anymore." Her mom walked over to the sink and started to do the dishes. "Why don't you have someone stay with you? How about that young boy, oh whats his name again." "Shikamaru...?" "Ya thats him! Nice boy I say." Ino sighed and leaned against the fridge. She shook her water bottle around, staring inside watching the water go in a whirl pool. It was kind of like how she was feeling, her mom and dad didn't know about him and her.
They didn't know that they were once a item and that she was crushed when they split. "...No mom not him. Hes properly to busy." 'He never had time for me why would he have time to stay the weekend...' "Then who? I'm not leaving you here alone." "Hm." Inoshi keep to his news paper, trying his hardest to stay out of the conversation, he hated the ones that in-voled thinking, he already had to think enough when he was sent on missions. Ino stood up and placed her water back in the fridge.
"Can I invite Tenten? Can she stay with me?" "Tenten?" her mom asked, from washing the dishes she had soap all over her. She was good at flower arranging but not at being a house wife. Ino laughed and whipped the bubbles off her cheek. "Yes mom, Tenten. My best friend." "You know dear, Gai's student." Inoshi liked Tenten among all of his daughters other friends, as he put it she was the most, 'Equipped' what ever that meant.
"Oh! That cute little girl!" squealed her mother, "Yup, so can she stay?" her mom took off her gloves and nodded, 'Yes!' "But no wild party's!" Ino laughed, "Than whats the use of having the WHOLE house to myself?" she joked and walked out of the kitchen. 'A whole weekend...no parents, this might be interesting.' she started up the stairs when she heard a knock at the door. As she reached the door nob she heard someone yelling, "Shikamaru come on, lets get going!" "Hell, hold on!"
She froze, 'S-Shikamaru...?' then he knocked again, her heart started to beat, her breathing got slower, she hadn't seen him in weeks, ever since there split. As she placed her hand on the door nob. Her hand was shaking, she was getting nervous all over. She started to pull the door open and greet him with a smile but...'No ones here...' she stepped out the door to only step on a ruby rose, she sighed looking down, 'Just like old times huh, leave a rose by the door...and then leave...'
She picked it up and swayed it side to side. It was carefully chosen but, it didn't make up for anything. It didn't make up for the whole time he was gone. It didn't make up for anything. She walked up to her room and sat on her bed looking at it. 'Shikamaru...what are you doing...?' she placed the rose on her bed stand when Tenten busted in. "Ino come on! Stop mopping around!" Ino jumped and placed a hand over her heart, "Tenten! You scared the shit out of me!"
"He he." she winked and pulled Ino up to her feet. "Come on lets go! Everyones meet up at the ramen stand for dinner!" Ino crinkled both her eye brows and bit her lower lip, "Everyone?" Tenten rolled her eyes, "Well, not Shikamaru. Hes out training or something, because when ever someone invites him he says he'll show up later but NEVER does. Now lets go!" Ino felt relieved, after everything that had happened between then she wasn't sure if she could face him...yet.
"Alright! Lets go!" she let go of one of Tenten's hands, grabbed her bag, slipped on her shoes real fast and raced down the stairs hand in hand with her friend. It felt good to have someone there for you, to lean on, to talk to when your in need, "Mom I'm having dinner out tonight! I'll see you later on tonight!" "Alright honey! Be careful!" Before she could answer back she was racing down the street.
